The fairy always tries to corrupt my Dao heart.

Chapter 48 Buds about to bloom
After breakfast.

Sitting under the eaves, Shen Qingyu watched Li Qing'an practicing his sword, a sense of melancholy rising in her heart.

She knew her best friend would definitely come back, but she didn't expect her to come back so quickly.

How many days has it been?
Isn't it just keeping something bad hanging around?

Why are you in such a hurry to come back?
Shen Qingyu thought to herself, but dared not reveal her thoughts.

If she revealed it, she would truly become a slut who steals her best friend's man in the eyes of outsiders.

This is not okay.

We need to make the bad things give up on Yinyin on their own.

But how can we get him to give up on his own?

Using your body?
No, no, that would make me look like a very promiscuous woman!
But now that my chest has been 'accidentally' touched by bad guys, it would be easy to expose myself if I did it in the same way again.

How can you make bad things more curious?
As Shen Qingyu pondered, she dozed off with her eyes half-closed. As her chin twitched, an idea suddenly came to her.

Shen Qingyu realized that she had another trait that could pique the curiosity of bad things!
That is one's own identity.

It's not about family background or social status, but about bloodline...

With a plan forming in her mind, Shen Qingyu leaned against a pillar on the eaves, looking drowsy.

"If you're sleepy, go back to your room and sleep."

Li Qingan's voice rang out as expected. Shen Qingyu tried to open her eyes wide and looked around: "I just felt a cold wind... Could it be the evil spirit's yin energy blowing over here?"

"Really?" Li Qingan didn't think much of it. "It is indeed a bit cold in autumn. Let's go back inside and sleep."

"alright."

Shen Qingyu yawned as she got up and walked into the house, saying, "I'm going inside to take a nap... Don't you dare peek!"

Li Qingan chuckled: "Who cares to see that?"

Shen Qingyu immediately turned around and glared at him. I don't believe you won't come and peek later!
Once Shen Qingyu was out of sight, Li Qingan immediately deactivated the soundproofing of the barrier and headed to the backyard.

"Master, before you fall asleep, let me enlighten you."

The Nine Tribulations Nirvana Phoenix Sword Scripture has three mental cultivation methods: "Separation Fire Inner Observation" for spiritual power, "Burning Worries and Purifying Thoughts" for sword soul, and "Nine Apertures Returning Phoenix" for sword energy.

In this sword manual, "Nine Apertures Returning to the Phoenix" means opening up the nine major acupoints in the body: four acupoints to connect with the heavenly energy, three acupoints to connect with the earthly energy, and two acupoints to connect with the human energy.

Once the opening is complete, the sword energy within the body circulates nine times, not only endlessly but also capable of breaking through and rebuilding, like a phoenix rising from the ashes.

However, the four apertures for receiving the heavenly energy and the three apertures for receiving the earthly energy need to be tempered in a special blessed land. Li Qing'an cannot find such a blessed land now, so he plans to open the two apertures for receiving the human energy first.

This is similar to body tempering, and Li Qing'an, who has already completed eight rounds of wildfire tempering, is preparing to open the Crimson Palace Aperture in one go today.

The fastest way is to fight!

"Are you still going to make things difficult for your teacher?"

"Who made you our master?"

Li Qingan looked at Huang Yunzhao who appeared opposite him, and took the opportunity to pull the Qingwu Sword from between her chest. Hearing a soft moan from her red lips, he launched an attack.

Huang Yunzhao casually broke off a tree branch, yawning while covering her mouth, and easily countered Li Qingan's offensive.

"To be honest, your human race is truly the envy of other races when it comes to cultivating spiritual power."

Huang Yunzhao spoke slowly and deliberately: "Spiritual energy is a blank sheet of paper, which means that cultivators can color it according to their strengths. Because of this characteristic, most cultivators can reach the limit of their own abilities in the spiritual energy field they are good at..."

In this respect, the demon and monster races are inferior to the human race.

As Li Qing'an attacked the Crimson Palace Acupoint with his sword energy, he said, "There are also geniuses among the human race who possess innate spiritual roots."

"The people you mentioned can indeed be considered the 'chosen ones' of your human race, but putting aside the fact that these people may not be all-rounders, the risks in their growth process are also much higher..." Huang Yunzhao said calmly, "So regardless of whether you can encounter them now, even if you do, you don't need to be afraid."

"I didn't say I was afraid," Li Qing'an flattered. "How could your teaching be bad, Master?"

"That's..." Huang Yunzhao snorted lightly, "Doesn't she know who I am..."

"Alright, let's continue."

Li Qingan was speechless for a moment. He didn't understand why these important figures always liked to be riddles. How much trouble would it save if they just said it directly?

Despite his inner grumbling, he steadied himself and drew his sword again.
"Master, then this disciple will take his leave."

On the deck of the airship, Su Lingyin bowed and then hurriedly left.

Wanting to see Li Qingan was one reason, but more importantly, her best friend Shen Qingyu hadn't replied to her messages!

Although my best friend sometimes likes to sleep in, it's really strange that she hasn't replied since I sent the message half an hour ago.

I hope nothing bad has happened to Qing'an.

At this moment, Luo Jingyi frowned slightly as she watched her obedient disciple's departing figure: "Zizhen."

Meng Zizhen hurriedly came out of the room: "Your Majesty, is there anything you need?"

"Give me your contract with Li Qing'an. We'll settle the accounts next month..."

Luo Jingyi glanced at her: "I'll go and talk to him."

A hint of doubt flashed in Meng Zizhen's eyes. His Majesty wanted to see Li Qing'an in person? Could it be that Her Highness the Goddess's passionate words had caused some problem?

As Meng Zizhen presented the contract, she asked, "Your Majesty, is this the Goddess's Path of Forgetfulness...?"

"No." Luo Jingyi lowered her eyes slightly, "I just wanted to see what was so good about this kid..."

How did Lingyin become such a fan?
······
"Alright, alright."

As noon approached, Huang Yunzhao casually tossed the branch in his hand aside: "Now that the Crimson Palace Aperture has been opened, why bother practicing anymore? Your master seems to have a lot of free time... Hmm~"

Before he could finish speaking, Li Qing'an thrust the Qingwu Sword into her chest: "Then I'll trouble you to continue helping your disciple cultivate the sword."

Huang Yunzhao pursed her red lips: "So eager, are you trying to seduce your master?"

Li Qingan smiled and said, "You could say that, but I'm more curious about something else right now."

He looked towards the front yard: "Can Shen Qingyu really sleep that much?"

"Waiting for you to peek?"

"I hope something's wrong."

Li Qingan strode over to the room where Shen Qingyu was sleeping: "Qingqing? Little foodie?"

Got no response.

However, Li Qing'an had already pushed open the door and strode inside, because Huang Yunzhao said, "There's a demonic aura."

The mansion's protective barrier had been reinforced by Huang Yunzhao, making it impossible for any monsters to break in, so...

Li Qingan walked to the bedroom door and looked at the bed. He saw that Shen Qingyu was surrounded by spiritual energy, but... where was the demonic energy?
"Master?" Li Qing'an asked, not understanding.

"The demonic aura has disappeared, and her bloodline is awakening, but she's not a pure-blooded demon beast," Huang Yunzhao said calmly. "No wonder this girl can eat so much."

"What kind of demonic beast's bloodline?" Li Qingan asked curiously.

"Disappeared too quickly," Huang Yunzhao replied. "It's just that your master, the Yin God, didn't sense it... It's undoubtedly a great demon."

She paused, then added, "However, she is not a product of human and demon... This part of her memory is with the Yang God, and I will explain it to you later."

Li Qingan nodded. As long as it's not a bad thing, that's fine.

He breathed a sigh of relief, but still looked at Shen Qingyu, thinking to himself that this girl's sleeping posture was really bad, sprawled out all over the place, and...

After the clothes were taken off, the bodice was piled up, revealing not only her fair and slender waist, but also her beautiful lower body.

It's even a bit...

This girl really wants me to peek...

Huang Yunzhao's teasing voice continued, "Look at the bed, is this girl dreaming, or is she...?"

After glancing at it, Li Qingan quietly left without saying anything, closing the bedroom door behind him.

Thinking to myself, Shen Qingyu is clearly a young woman in her early twenties, yet she acts like a budding young girl.

After calming himself down, he knocked on the door again.

This time, something happened inside.
