This scholar is a bit cruel

Chapter 302 The Fairy's Anger

Baoan Hall.

A carriage stopped at the door, and two maids helped the delicate Lin Daiyu out of the shop and into the carriage.

This scene was witnessed by Luo Zijun, who was on the other side of the street.

"What is Lin Daiyu doing here?"

"Snitching?"

Luo Zijun immediately recalled what she had said at their first meeting: Lin Daiyu had already signed a contract with her senior sister and become her person.

The fact that he spent the night cultivating in the Grand View Garden the night before last has probably already reached his senior sister's ears.

"Forget it, I'd better not go looking for a fight."

Although he had no ill intentions or guilt regarding his relationship with his sister-in-law, explaining was useless in front of his senior sister, who was not a reasonable person at all.

After the carriage left, he turned around and went straight back to his residence.

"I should focus on cultivation first. Once I break through to the Nascent Soul Realm and regain my freedom, I'll come back to share the good news with my senior sister..."

Back at the Bai residence, he went to the backyard and began practicing his boxing.

In the evening, after his medicinal bath, he practiced the Fiery Finger technique in the backyard for an hour.

Now, the power of the Fiery Finger has reached a new level.

They arrived in an instant, ten meters away.

Even steel and iron can be easily pierced, let alone flesh and blood.

After finishing his cultivation, just as he was about to return to his room, Zhiyuan came over and said, "Young Master, it's been so long since you've gone to pay your respects to the Eldest Miss."

Luo Zijun thought about it and realized that it had indeed been a long time since she had gone there.

If the rules are strictly followed, the son-in-law is required to pay his respects to his wife every morning and evening.

However, the Bai family did not treat him as a son-in-law, and Miss Bai did not have such complicated rules, so he would only go there occasionally, or when Miss Bai sent someone to call him.

Although the two lived only in the same courtyard, they rarely visited each other.

Thinking about it carefully, it seems they're not even as good as friends.

However, this is for the best. Once he successfully breaks through to the Nascent Soul Realm, he will have no psychological burden and will be able to ask Miss Bai to dissolve the engagement.

"Alright, then go and pay your respects now."

Luo Zijun arrived at the wooden door of the courtyard and knocked on it.

Since the engagement between the two of them will soon be dissolved, they should pay their respects to Miss Bai more often during this time.

The wooden door opened quickly.

Bai Bai peeked her head out from the doorway and looked at him with some surprise: "Brother Ziju, is something the matter?"

Since Luo Zijun moved here, she rarely knocks on this small wooden door.

Luo Zijun said, "Is Miss asleep? I'd like to go and pay my respects."

Bai Bai looked at him with some surprise and said, "He shouldn't be asleep yet. Brother Zijun, please wait a moment. I'll go ask him first."

After saying that, he ran away.

A moment later, she ran back and said, "Brother Zijun, Miss said she's already in bed and doesn't want to see you."

Luo Zijun was taken aback and asked, "Why don't you want to see me?"

Bai Bai blinked her big eyes and said, "Because Miss is already in bed. How can Miss see you while wearing a little undergarment?"

"Forehead……"

Immediately in Luo Zijun's mind, the image of Miss Bai, a celestial being with flowing black hair and wearing a small undergarment, appeared...

"Then you should say it's inconvenient for you to see me, not that you don't want to."

Luo Zijun raised a question.

Bai Bai tilted her head and thought for a moment, then said, "Maybe it's too much trouble. After all, to see Brother Zijun, Miss has to put on clothes, socks, shoes, and comb her hair, which is very troublesome."

"Bai Bai, close the door! Don't waste your breath on that guy!"

Suddenly, Pinky spoke from behind.

"Oh."

Bai Bai stuck out her little tongue at Luo Zijun quietly and gently closed the door.

"Actually, I also find it troublesome."

Luo Zijun muttered something to herself, then stopped thinking about it and went back to her room to focus on her cultivation.

It's actually a good thing that the other person doesn't want to see him.

This would mean the other person dislikes him, so when he asks for a divorce, there shouldn't be any problem.

The third watch.

Luo Zijun's soul left her body and she arrived at the back garden.

After a short while, a snow-white figure appeared in the bright moonlight in the night sky, and in an instant, it drifted down.

"Fairy..."

Luo Zijun took the initiative to greet him.

The Moon Palace Fairy, however, remained cold and indifferent, ignoring him and heading straight to the entrance.

Luo Zijun quickly followed, watching her tall and slender back, and thought to herself: If you're so capable of curing poison, why don't you be just as cold and silent?

"Wow!"

A pillar of light appeared, and the two arrived underground.

As they stepped onto the stone bridge, Luo Zijun couldn't help but ask, "Fairy, will the energy from the fire lotus seed within you also be returned to me in the same detoxification method as last night?"

"Yes."

The Moon Palace Fairy walked ahead, speaking coldly.

"Oh."

Luo Zijun didn't ask any more questions, but secretly wondered: Is this really the only way?
After exiting the tunnel, the Moon Fairy headed directly towards the cave not far away.

When Luo Zijun entered the cave, she found that Luo Zijun had already sat down against the wall, just like before, with her eyes closed, looking cold and resigned.

Luo Zijun suppressed a laugh and stepped forward, asking, "Fairy, do I still need to take the initiative to transfer that energy this time? Or is it because it's inside you that you need to take the initiative?"

The Moon Palace Fairy opened her eyes, stared at him for a while, and said coldly, "Then sit down."

"my pleasure."

Luo Zijun, without any hesitation, sat down against the wall.

The Moon Palace Fairy stared at him for a while, then snorted coldly and said, "Remember this, you owe me."

Luo Zijun said, "I will remember this. Please begin, Fairy."

"Humph!"

The already pitch-black cave was suddenly filled with mist, making it hazy and indistinct, so much so that even with the vision of one's divine soul, one could not see clearly.

A light shield, as light as a veil, silently blocked the entrance to the cave.

The two quickly focused their attention and began to detoxify.

Outside the cave, it was gloomy and silent, while inside, undercurrents surged and a fierce battle raged.

The energy from the Samadhi Fire Lotus seed began to flow continuously back into Luo Zijun's body through her meridians and acupoints. At first, it flowed gently like a trickle, then it surged like a rushing river with splashing waves, and then it surged like a raging flood, fierce and unstoppable. Finally, all the energy returned to Luo Zijun's body.

The dragon enters the shallow water, the tiger roars to the sky.

After resting for a short while, Luo Zijun dared not delay and immediately began to activate the soul power in her dantian, carrying this violent energy to continue her breakthrough.

"boom!"

Once, twice, three times...

The passage leading to the darkness ahead remained as stable as Mount Tai, completely unmoved.

After a while.

The Moon Palace Fairy next to her got up, walked to the cave entrance and sat down, leaning against the wall, her face streaked with tears, her expression dazed, and she remained silent, helping to protect the Dharma.

The night passed quickly.

"boom!"

After several attempts, Luo Zijun finally felt that the acupoint begin to loosen.

Finally, I see hope!
He originally wanted to press on and continue his sprint, but his meridians were already in great pain after a night of breaking through, and his soul power was almost exhausted.

The energy brought by the fire lotus seed also seemed to have been somewhat depleted.

At this time, you must not be impatient.

He calmed his mind, suppressed the agitation in his heart, and began to slowly finish his practice.

"call--"

After a long while, he let out a long breath and opened his eyes.

I was extremely tired after a night of intense effort.

However, the restless energy within his body needed to be returned to the fairy; otherwise, with his current divine soul, he certainly wouldn't be able to control it, let alone dare to bring it back to his physical body.

"Fairy..."

He shouted towards the cave entrance, saying, "It's having some effect tonight; that pass has loosened up a bit."

The Moon Palace Fairy sat at the cave entrance and, upon hearing this, said indifferently, "Oh."

But he just sat there without moving.

Luo Zijun meant for her to come over so that she could return the restless energy to her. Seeing that she didn't move, he had no choice but to say directly, "Fairy, you can come over now. I will send the energy in my body to you."

The Moon Palace Fairy remained seated, motionless and silent.

Luo Zijun had no choice but to plead, "Fairy, please help me one more time. I'll be your servant from now on, at your beck and call."

"Humph!"

The Moon Palace Fairy then got up, walked over, went to a corner, leaned against the wall, sat down, and closed her eyes.

Luo Zijun said, "Alright, it's my turn to take the initiative this time."

Soon, the cave was shrouded in smoke.

The two began the detoxification process.

That turbulent energy began to slowly flow into the Moon Palace Fairy's body. At first, it was slow, then it gradually became rapid, and finally, like a flash flood, it was poured in all at once.

Their souls flickered with light; one began to dim as all the energy was poured out, while the other shone brightly as he received too much energy.

Even after two nights of consumption, the energy of the Samadhi Fire Lotus Seed remains extremely potent.

The Moon Palace Fairy lay on the ground for a long time before she had fully digested and integrated the soul sea into her body. Only then did she slowly sit up, look to the side, and coldly say, "It's time to go."

"Oh."

Luo Zijun also sat up.

The two left the cave together and entered the dark tunnel.

"Fairy, there are still three nights left. Do you think I can really break through to the Nascent Soul Realm?"

"I don't know."

"But the fairy said last night that as long as you help me, I have a 90% chance of breaking through."

"You are too rude."

"what?"

"Humph!"

The two quickly emerged from underground.

Arriving at the back garden, standing amidst the vibrant flowers, this time, the Moon Palace Fairy did not leave immediately.

She gazed at Hundred Flowers Lake not far ahead, her white dress fluttering and her hair dancing in the cool, silvery moonlight, looking like a true fairy from the moon palace.

Luo Zijun couldn't help but reach out and grasp the small hand hidden in her sleeve.

But the moment their hands touched, the Moon Palace Fairy visibly trembled, then turned to look at him and coldly asked, "What are you doing?"

Luo Zijun said, "What do you mean, what do I mean? I just want to hold the fairy's hand."

"you……"

The Moon Palace Fairy stared at him coldly, her aura dangerous: "Are you courting death?"

Luo Zijun looked puzzled: "Can't I even hold your hand? Just now down there, the fairy took the initiative to reach out and hold my hand..."

"shut up!"

The Moon Palace Fairy immediately interrupted, coldly shaking off his hand, and said in an icy tone, "Below is below, here is here. Are the mortal realm and the ghost realm the same? Besides, I was helping you cultivate..."

"All right……"

Luo Zijun didn't dare say anything more, afraid of angering her and not being able to pass the challenge tomorrow night.

"Humph!"

The Moon Palace Fairy snorted coldly, her voice icy as she warned, "If you dare to be so insolent again, don't blame me for not letting you off the hook!"

"Oh."

Luo Zijun sincerely apologized: "Fairy, I know I was wrong. I will definitely learn from this lesson and never dare to offend you again."

"Humph!"

The Moon Palace Fairy gave him a few more cold glances before her figure flashed, soaring into the night sky and disappearing from sight.

"whispering sound!"

Luo Zijun curled her lip and muttered to herself, "Whether it's underground or above ground, it's all divine souls, what's the difference? Pretending! Just now she was begging me with a tearful voice underground, asking me to... um?"

He suddenly felt a chill run down his spine. He turned his head and saw a white figure standing silently behind him, like a ghost, staring at him with icy eyes.

"What were you talking about just now?"

“No…no.”

Luo Zijun was terrified and quickly denied it.

The Moon Palace Fairy, who had returned, stared at him coldly for a while before saying, "You can try to break through the barrier yourself tomorrow night. I'm not coming."

After saying that, he flew into the night sky and disappeared.

Luo Zijun was dumbfounded.

"Fairy, please stop—"
