Chapter 181 Defying Fate!

"Qingci, is Xiao Xie still in the room?"

Gu Wan pulled Leng Qingci along, expressing her dissatisfaction.

Her dissatisfaction was not directed at Xie Lingxin, but at Leng Qingci.

"Hey kid! Why are you so dense? This is such a great opportunity, you should spend more time with Xiao Xie!"

"Let me tell you, I really like Xiao Xie! He's such an outstanding young man. At your age, you can't afford to be so reserved. If someone else snatches him away, don't come crying to me!"

Leng Qingci: "..."

You are truly my mother.

Leng Yanwu yelled from the side, "Are you crazy, woman? Huh? I'm asking you if you're crazy!"

"What's wrong with my daughter? That boy is completely unworthy of her! Can you please stop playing that nonsense all day long?!"

Gu Wan was furious: "I'm playing the piano haphazardly? You tell me, how can someone so young have cultivated to the third level of the Mind Realm? Can you find one like that in the entire East Sea? You old fool!"

"..."

The cold, hot afternoon silenced my words.

At this age, if one possesses a triple physical body, one can still find a few like them.

The three aspects of the soul—I really can't find a single one.

Even his own daughter, though devoted to ancient scriptures, was a rare genius in the spiritual path, reaching the third level at the age of 20.

He could only cradle his neck and say, "So what? I've said it before! My Leng family's son-in-law doesn't want those mortals who dream of immortality! No matter how powerful he is, it's useless!"

Gu Wan sneered, "Fine, fine, so in your eyes, anyone who has achieved cultivation is just a mortal? Then I, a mortal, am not worthy to enter your Leng family? I'll leave, I won't get in your way anymore!"

"Hey you...!"

Leng Yanwu was speechless.

He was a master of classical studies, and his wife was no ordinary person either.

There aren't many titled spiritual masters in the East China Sea, and Gu Wan is one of them!
The Leng family's current status is certainly due to its family tradition of classical studies, but Gu Wan and the Gu family behind her also played a crucial role in ensuring their current stability.

"Incomprehensible!"

"Mom, that's not what Dad meant..."

Leng Qingci pulled Gu Wan back. Although she knew Gu Wan was just putting on an act, if she didn't stop her and give her a way out, things could really escalate.

"Besides, Mom, my relationship with Brother Xie is completely open and honest, not like what you think. I just admire his expertise in ancient classics and history."

Leng Yanwu sneered, "Ha, what a joke! What does he know about ancient classics and history?"

"you shut up!"

Gu Wan cursed, then said to Leng Qingci with exasperation, "You silly girl, your mother is only worried because you have nothing!"

"You saw it yourself that day. Although the head of the Chen family didn't say it outright, it was obvious that he considered Xiao Xie to be his son-in-law!"

"If you don't hurry up, the fat meat that's already in your mouth will fly away!"

"You're so old, and you don't seem to be in a hurry at all!"

"...Mom, I'll get angry if you say that again!"

Even with her good temper, Leng Qingci got angry when her own mother repeatedly mocked her for being old.

However, her anger was fleeting, and her voice remained soft, lacking any intimidating power.

Gu Wan looked on, feeling a sense of despair. She sighed deeply and said, "Go away. Don't let me see you. Seeing you makes me angry!"

After chasing Leng Qingci away, Gu Wan looked towards the backyard with a hint of amazement: "I don't know what kind of cultivation this Xiao Xie has, but overnight, he has given people the feeling of being reborn."

With her spiritual cultivation, Xie Lingxin's state of mind could not be hidden from her.

If Xie Lingxin before last night felt like a small pond to her, then...

Right now, he feels like a vast ocean...

This is not merely an improvement in cultivation level, but a change in the very essence of life.

Spiritual practice is actually a process of purifying, sublimating, and transcending life.

Plants, trees, bamboo, and rocks, when given the right opportunity, can become spirits or monsters. This is the first step in their transformation from inanimate objects, devoid of spirit and intelligence, to beings that have developed sentience and intelligence.

Next, it needs to be shaped into human form; this is the second step.

Compared to them, humans are already in a superior position from the start.

It's much easier for them to become immortals than for other living beings.

Xie Lingxin's changes don't quite reach this level of sublimation, but the magnitude of the changes is indeed remarkable.

Gu Wan asked doubtfully, "Do you think... he might be practicing some kind of cultivation technique that alters one's innate abilities?"

Leng Yanwu rolled his eyes: "Do you want to hear what you're saying?"

"Such a method to defy fate is not entirely impossible, but even for those top-tier families, it is extremely difficult to achieve, and it would require an unknown price."

"How can a kid with no background and no resources possibly defy fate?"

As a member of a family of scholars specializing in classical studies, Leng Yanwu knew secrets that many people did not.

Changing one's inherent nature, a feat that defies fate, is considered impossible by most people.

But he knew that someone had done it before.

However, its difficulty is so great that it is practically impossible.

He also understood the importance of one's inherent qualities.

Therefore, even though Xie Lingxin had already shown what could be called a prodigy, he was not particularly moved.

Because of his inherent limitations, becoming an immortal is out of the question, and after the 12th level of the barrier, he will find it difficult to make any progress.

Even the most outstanding talents will eventually become mediocre.

Of course, this is not the reason for his opposition.

In fact, he was targeting all so-called cultivation prodigies, all those who vainly sought to become immortals.

In his eyes, becoming an immortal was indeed an illusion.

Even an ordinary person is better than someone who wants to become an immortal.

Because he knew all too well what became of these so-called prodigies...

Gu Wan was actually aware of her husband's thoughts.

However, she thinks this is nitpicking.

She didn't care about anything else; as long as Leng Qingci liked it, it was good.

On second thought, I realized that my guess was too far-fetched.

Let's not even talk about where Xiao Xie got his heaven-defying method to change his fate. Even if he did, where did he get the resources?
"never mind."

"No matter what, you old fool, don't be stubborn anymore. Can't you really see it?"

"Qingci herself doesn't realize that she's already fallen for him!"

"It's rare that she likes it, so you're not allowed to dampen her enthusiasm!"

Gu Wan warned.

Leng Yanwu pursed his lips and didn't say anything.

He figured it out, that's why he couldn't stand that kid no matter what!

Ignore it? No way!
snort!

"Sigh~"

Xie Lingxin couldn't help but gasp after seeing the results of her night's cultivation.

He estimated that just by practicing the Divine Emperor's World Domination Diagram for one night, his sexual cultivation would increase by at least 10 points.

In addition to the effects of other sexual techniques and the nectar, the score jumped directly to over 30.

This is only the first time I've learned it.

If the Divine Emperor's World Domination Chart is perfected, based on past experience, it can increase at least 10 times!
That means your sexual skill can increase by more than 100 points in a single day!
terror!
so horrible!

To be honest, he was a little scared of that speed.

As expected of a Primordial-level cultivation technique!

No wonder, everyone values ​​innate talent.

If one's innate talent is insufficient, even if the cultivation method is right in front of them, they will not be able to practice it. How can they compare with those who are born with high innate talent?

We're from completely different worlds!

Looking at it this way, it seems that the progress of cultivating life force is falling behind again.

Looking at it now, it's not much different.

However, the Innate Mysterious Water Yin Thunder Diagram is already perfected, in other words, its potential has been exhausted.

Even so, it was only with the help of Yuzao that he barely managed not to fall behind.

The Divine Emperor's Rule Over the World is only just beginning.

"call……"

Xie Lingxin let out a breath.

I was greedy, I was greedy...

I can't even stand the Ten Directions Level Visualization Method anymore?

"Brother Xie, are you awake?"

Leng Qingci's voice rang out from outside the door; she had sensed the change in Xie Lingxin's aura.

Xie Lingxin got up and opened the door.

"Miss Leng...Tong Huohuo?"

Besides Leng Qingci, Tong Huohuo was also outside the door.

"Deputy Captain Tong said he needed to talk to you, so I brought him here to see you. You two can talk first."

Leng Qingci smiled gently, said hello, and left on her own.

"come in."

Tong Huohuo entered the room and looked around.

His eyes were filled with jealousy.

"You've actually settled in here..."

Damn it...

"Get to the point."

Xie Lingxin's cultivation has made great progress, and she feels that her heart is pure. She doesn't want this guy to talk about worldly desires and mortal matters, lest he taint your purity, little Xie!
Tong Huohuo pouted indignantly and took out a box.

"This was sent by the Bai family."

"what?"

Xie Lingxin took a look and immediately understood.

The Bai family's ten-level martial arts palm technique—Mountains and Rivers Move!

"What use do you have for this thing?"

Tong Huohuo obviously knew what this was.

“Ten-level martial arts are not easy to master, especially the Mountain and River Movement, which is paired with the Bai family's Hidden Dragon Subduing technique. They complement each other. Without Hidden Dragon Subduing, you can't master it even if you have it... What are you doing?”

As he was talking, he saw Xie Lingxin take a book, glance at it a few times, put it aside, and start gesturing with her hands.

He couldn't help but scoff: "Are you kidding me? What do you think this is? Some kind of old lady square dancing? You think you can learn it after just one glance?"

"hold head high--!"

Tong Huohuo: "...?"

Listen to the flow of blood and energy, stirring the air and producing a sound like a dragon's roar.

His eyes were practically bulging out.

"It's not that difficult."

Xie Lingxin put her hands down and picked up the Mountain and River Movement Manual to look through it.

His physical body is only at the second level. Even if he masters the Mountain and River Movement technique, he will not have the same power as Bai Zangji.

But... it will be soon.

He will soon surpass Bai Zangji!

"what happened to you?"

Seeing Tong Huohuo clutching her chest, swaying precariously, she grabbed a chair and slowly slid down to sit.

"fine……"

He said weakly, "There's one more thing I need to tell you..."

His mouth seemed to open and close unconsciously as he mechanically said, "I've reported the situation in the Dragon Palace to the bureau. Although we didn't catch the evil cultivator, we did find some clues. Moreover, Wu Laosan is a serious criminal, worth 40 contribution points."

"Although it was the Dragon King who killed him, the bureau's investigation concluded that you were involved. All the credit will be attributed to you. You get 30, and I get 10. You don't have any objections, do you?"

Xie Ling thought for a moment and said, "Okay."

"Furthermore, to prevent incidents like Wu Laosan's from happening again, the bureau plans to send Captain Chen, along with a few other people, to be stationed at the Dragon Palace on a daily basis."

"Liao Chen?"

"The captain of the second team."

Xie Ling thought to herself, "Can he keep the situation under control?"

Tong Huohuo said, "Captain Liao Chen is a master of the fifth level of life and death. Even if Wu Laosan were still alive, the three Wu brothers together would not be his match."

"so smart?"

Xie Lingxin's eyes lit up: "Can I join?"

The Ancient Dragon Abyss is a great place to farm spiritual energy, but because of Wu Laosan, he thought he wouldn't have a chance to go there again anytime soon.

But it would be different if there were experts stationed there permanently.

Tong Huohuo seemed to know what he was thinking and shook her head, saying, "I advise you to forget about it..."
