I don't want to be trained by my senior sister!

The next day, Fang Xuan felt refreshed and invigorated.

The winter sun shone warmly through the window, bathing me in its rays.

He stretched out a big yawn, feeling refreshed, full of spiritual energy, and in incredibly good spirits.

Ah, that feels so good...

He was obviously referring to sunbathing.

It's definitely not referring to my senior's long, straight, and delicately textured legs.

It's not that I'm talking about my senior sister's cute, innocent, fragrant little tongue.

It's not that I'm talking about my senior sister's hands, which are capable of both wielding a sword to slay enemies and being gentle... cough cough, in short, they are extremely skillful.

And that incredibly slender yet strong waist.

Eh.....

He touched his chin.

Suddenly I realized that my senior's collarbone is also quite beautiful.

.......

Last night's battle... well, it was a really close fight.

Of course, I'm referring to the battle fought by the Nascent Soul Elder.

The results were outstanding.

He is now at the early stage of the Nascent Soul realm.

A seventeen-year-old Nascent Soul cultivator—if this news got out…

Not to mention the Qingyun Sect, even the entire Southern Frontier and Central Continent would probably be enough to terrify a whole host of so-called geniuses.

Fortunately, the system was powerful, allowing his cultivation level to consistently surpass his senior sister's, which in turn allowed him to maintain his dominance over her...

Fang Xuan thought to himself with a smug satisfaction.

......

The door creaked softly.

Ning Qian came out.

She changed into an elegant light-colored long dress, and her dark hair was still tied up with a simple wooden hairpin.

However... there were still some faint dark circles under those clear, cold eyes today.

I saw Fang Xuan sunbathing in the yard.

Her lips curved slightly upward, revealing a faint smile.

Fang Xuan looked at the dark circles under her eyes and began to feel a little guilty.

My senior sister always says that cultivation cannot be neglected and that we must consolidate our achievements... cough, so... it's all for the sake of cultivation.

But my senior sister has a really beautiful smile...

"Good morning, senior sister." Fang Xuan waved.

"Mmm." Ning Qian responded softly and walked to his side.

He looked up at the sky again.

"Today... let's just go out for a walk and enjoy the breeze." Her voice remained cool and calm.

Yesterday's events caused quite a stir.

Although the Tianyan Sect has not yet shown its face, it is not necessarily that they know nothing.

If they disregard the rules and forcibly intervene in Tianlan Kingdom's affairs, it will also be a problem.

However, this place was only there to deal with Lu Qingsong and buy time.

While we're at it, let's see if we can get some resources.

It is not a place to stay for long; it can be abandoned at any time.

If the situation changes, they will return to the Qingyun Sect first.

"I'll do whatever you say, Senior Sister." Fang Xuan stood up and reached out to squeeze Ning Qian's slightly cool hand placed beside her.

Then he casually raised his hand and patted her little head.

He's getting more and more comfortable with this movement.

Ning Qian was slightly taken aback when he rubbed her head, then turned her head slightly away: "Don't touch your senior sister's head like that."

Fang Xuan said matter-of-factly, "Senior Sister clearly said it was possible before."

"Hmm...?" Ning Qian blinked, a hint of confusion on her usually cool face.

Did she say it was okay?

It seems so...

Taking advantage of the moment when my senior sister was lost in her memories and looking dazed.

Fang Xuan quickly pressed his advantage and gently rubbed it again.

Ning Qian subconsciously shrank her head, then rubbed her hand against his palm as if she was very comfortable.

But the next second she realized what was happening, immediately straightened her face, and quickly tried to maintain her shaky senior sister dignity.

"No...no."

This is outrageous! My junior brother will only become more and more disobedient.

"Okay, Senior Sister." Fang Xuan immediately withdrew her hand, stood up straight, and showed a well-behaved smile.

Seeing his "I'm very obedient" demeanor, Ning Qian's carefully constructed seriousness instantly crumbled.

She felt inexplicably happy when her junior brother was obedient.

......

The streets of Beijing remain bustling and noisy.

Yesterday's earth-shattering battle between cultivators in the inner city was, for most mortals, nothing more than something to talk about over tea.

Life goes on, with vendors hawking their wares and laughter filling the air.

Fang Xuan and Ning Qian walked side by side in the crowd.

We found a restaurant on the street and sat down in a private room by the window on the second floor.

We ordered a few side dishes and a pot of warm wine.

Fang Xuan picked up a piece of meat and was about to put it in his mouth when a dark shadow moved over with a series of soft thuds.

"You little glutton," Fang Xuan said with a laugh, holding the meat to Xiao Hei's mouth.

After swallowing, Xiao Hei nuzzled Fang Xuan's hand in a fawning manner, then stared longingly at the chopsticks.

Fang Xuan picked up another piece of green vegetable with his chopsticks.

Xiao Hei came over, ate it in one bite, and then licked the chopsticks.

Fang Xuan: "..."

Why are you licking the chopsticks? He's disgusted.

He snapped his fingers and flicked them at Xiao Hei.

"Pfft!"

Little Black let out a wronged sound and shrank back.

Ning Qian watched this scene quietly from the side, a faint smile appearing in her cool eyes.

She took a small sip of her drink, her gaze continuing to wander out the window.

The cold winter wind swept through the street, swirling up a few withered leaves and ruffling a stray strand of hair by her ear.

She raised her hand and gently tucked a strand of hair behind her ear.

His expression was somewhat distant, as if he were lost in thought.

Fang Xuan rested his chin on his hand, simply admiring the scene.

My senior sister is so beautiful it's almost unfair.

So, um... my senior sister is probably thinking about tomorrow's plans.

......

Ning Qian's inner thoughts:

Um.....

His breathing was steady, his nascent soul was beginning to form, and his foundation was solid.

Last night's "aided cultivation" had an even better effect than expected.

My junior brother's talent and physique are indeed extraordinary.

At this pace, we should consolidate our gains steadily, supplemented by more resources...

After this year, my junior brother will be eighteen.

In the mortal realm, the age of coming of age is twenty, but the lifespan of cultivators is long, and the completion of the Foundation Establishment stage is usually the dividing line.

My junior brother has already reached the Foundation Establishment stage, and now he's even at the Nascent Soul stage.

But... I still feel it's a bit too small.

It will take at least two more years to recover.

But.....

How can it be so small?

It will take another two years to recover.

How can I make her endure this?

They are so close, facing each other every day.

Yet she still had to pretend to be a virtuous and detached senior sister, purely guiding cultivation...

hateful.

She has reincarnated through so many lifetimes, and she has never felt that time was so unbearable.

........

Ning Qian sighed softly.

Fang Xuan saw this and felt that his senior sister must be quite tired from planning such a tight schedule.

They've started sighing.

She turned her gaze away from the window.

He picked up his glass and took another sip.

I need to make a good plan about how to continue to deceive my junior brother into dual cultivation over the next two years.

Strengthen the relationship, and at the same time... wait patiently.

We absolutely must not rush things and scare him.

Yes, we need to proceed step by step, and we need to have a legitimate reason for doing so.

Make him feel that everything is for the sake of his cultivation, so that he can naturally... practice dual cultivation day and night.

Ning Qian silently perfected her "rapid plan to cultivate a younger Daoist partner" in her heart.

Her cool face remained expressionless, but when no one was looking, her ears had quietly turned red...

Fang Xuan had no idea that beneath his senior sister's calm exterior, she was carrying out such a grand and far-reaching plan.

"Senior sister, this wine is pretty good. Would you like to try this dish?"

Fang Xuan snapped out of his thoughts, picked up a piece of food with his chopsticks, and put it in Ning Qian's bowl.

Ning Qian snapped out of her reverie, glanced at Fang Xuan's smiling eyes, and softly hummed in agreement...

......

"Ahem... When we get back, your senior sister will help you stabilize your cultivation level again."

"Um... um, senior sister... are you alright?"

.......

How dare you question your senior sister?

They must be severely punished.

.......
