Chapter 103 Gathering Qi Flowers, Lin Xian'er's Choice

Lin Xian'er took a step back, pouting her swollen lips, and muttered under her breath, "Aren't you afraid that Master Zhang will slap you to death?"

Lu Ming shrugged innocently: "You delivered yourself to my door. Alright, I'm going to cultivate now. If you need any help, we can talk about it in a few days."

Losing your first kiss but getting a promise in return—it's a good deal!

Lin Xian'er left humming a little tune, feeling exceptionally happy.

Outside, Chu Liuxiang and Lu Xiaofeng, those two mischievous friends, were whispering amongst themselves, shaking their heads and nodding intermittently. Even they found it difficult?

"What are you all talking about in your gibberish?"

Lu Xiaofeng saw Lin Xian'er as if she were a hedgehog, subtly taking a small step back. He was indeed a womanizer, but he had no intention of courting death. Neither Lin Xian'er's master nor Zhang Laodao of Wudang were people he could afford to offend.

"It's nothing, I was just wondering what Old Ming was laughing about earlier."

Just then, everyone was present. Lin Xian'er's charming and fair face revealed a malicious smile. She coughed lightly and said, "He's laughing at how the Handsome Chu Liuxiang is so dashing and has consummated his marriage with three thousand women, but he hasn't even touched his three confidantes, which has made them so anxious! Hehe!"

Upon hearing this, Chu Liuxiang immediately felt three resentful gazes piercing his back. Even though he had experienced many storms, he couldn't help but feel a chill run down his spine. For now, he could only try to distract himself.

"Recently, the imperial court has been making moves, summoning a large number of martial arts figures, seemingly preparing to launch a military campaign against the Qing court. This was orchestrated by the Iron-Blooded Marquis, and even the Eastern Depot, which usually opposes him, has remained silent in support, which is quite strange."

The imperial court is the imperial court, and the martial arts world is the martial arts world; the two are clearly distinct. Martial arts practitioners look down on the imperial court's lackeys, and the imperial court's lackeys also think that these people who use martial arts to break the law are not good people.

This has been the case for hundreds of years. There have been those who wanted to unify the martial arts world, but they all failed!

Lin Xian'er yawned, glanced at the weather, and realized it was time for her beauty sleep; lack of sleep could affect her appearance!

"This is a man's business, it's so boring."

Lu Xiaofeng also sensed a resentful gaze, so he changed the subject, saying, "Old Xiang, why did Wanfu Wanshou Garden invite so many martial arts figures this time? It seems even the Miao region was invited, and the Great Joyful Bodhisattva is on the invitation too. Iron-Blooded Marquis is leading the way, with the Five Mountains Sword Sect, Sun Moon Sect, Wudang, Emei, Kunlun, Ming Cult, Beggars' Sect, White Camel Manor...tsk tsk tsk, such a grand gesture, could it be that they're inviting them to attack the Qing Dynasty?"

This jinx! If you can't speak properly, you should just shut up!

Chu Liuxiang's expression was solemn. How could he be absent from such an important event? Even if he hadn't received an invitation, he still wanted to go and see what was going on. Like Lu Xiaofeng, he had come smelling trouble. It was hard to imagine what the reason was.

"I don't know either, but something just feels off."

Lu Xiaofeng gestured towards the room with his chin and chuckled softly, "The Huashan Sect is on the invitation list too. I reckon that kid will go. If anything happens, it'll be good to have someone to help out, right?"

That jerk of a friend! He was definitely planning to drag someone down with him!

Just as they were talking about something bad, a vast and powerful aura spread from the house, making the bamboo house sway precariously. The flying catkins were drawn into the air by an unknown force, forming a unique vortex that swirled and circled around.

Lu Xiaofeng opened his mouth wide. "If you're going to cultivate, just cultivate. Why make such a big fuss?"

Zhang Sanfeng appeared outside the house at some unknown time, placing his hand on the railing. A glint of shrewdness flashed in his eyes. "What a promising talent! He broke through so quickly? It seems to be condensing a Qi flower?"

Lin Xian'er rushed out, her red lips parted so wide they could almost fit an egg: "Grandpa, what's wrong?"

She knows how to cultivate interpersonal relationships; she has a natural talent for it, and her words are incredibly sweet! Lu Ming can attest to that; they are indeed very sweet and smooth.

Zhang Sanfeng said irritably, "He's breaking through; he should be condensing his Qi Flower. This kid is really lucky. Is it because my Wudang Mountain is such a blessed place for breakthroughs? But why can't those other brats even get close to the threshold of the Three Flowers stage?"

Lin Xian'er covered her mouth and giggled, rambling on and on, just like an old man who saw his descendants as useless, which was the real Zhang Sanfeng.

Only when they become family will they show this side of themselves.

"Uncle Song and the others will definitely have a chance in the future, hehe. Grandpa, what do you think of Lu Ming?"

Looking at the shy Lin Xian'er, Zhang Sanfeng felt that the cabbage he had cared for for twenty years was about to be eaten by a pig, and he was very unhappy.

He had no children of his own, but he treated his seven disciples like his own sons, and Lin Xian'er like his granddaughter.

Now that brat Lu Ming is trying to take advantage of me again, it's no wonder I'm not happy: "That kid's no pushover. He's got some kind of shady business with the female disciples of the Emei Sect. I'm a good judge of character; if you go with him, you're sure to get bullied!"

That's obvious! Even a charming beauty like Lin Xian'er is the most extravagant one in Lu Ming's eyes. The key is that it's a brand new car. After buying it home, he'll kick it hard instead of driving it hard.

"Hehe, I see. Grandpa, Master said she's going to find the treasure left behind by the Happy King. I'm planning to have Lu Ming come with me. I'm not getting any younger, and if he's truly sincere towards me, I wouldn't mind marrying him."

Lin Xian'er's tone was calm. She couldn't say she loved Lu Ming; it was more of a liking and curiosity. Feelings could be cultivated later, but the choice of a husband had to be made carefully.

Even the most sought-after courtesans know that choosing a lover requires careful selection. Her master, Fairy Yunmeng, was once a heartthrob and the dream goddess of countless heroes. Since even her master acknowledged Lu Ming's extraordinary qualities, it's no surprise she chose him.

Even if she falls into a trap, she still has her best friend Lin Shiyin by her side. It's a win-win situation; she's not the only one suffering.

Lu Ming entered a profound state, where he could see a pure and flawless flower appearing in his dantian. From seed to sprout, it slowly grew under the infusion of internal energy, the bud appearing and gradually unfolding with a captivating luster. It was undeniably beautiful, yet it possessed a deadly killing intent!

Essence, Qi, and Spirit: Essence is cultivated through physical tempering, Qi is cultivated through internal energy tempering, and Spirit is more complicated, requiring the purification of mental energy.

Generally speaking, the most troublesome of the three flowers is the Divine Flower, which often requires going through battles, deceit, and various major events in the martial arts world before going into seclusion to sort things out and seek peace of mind. It sounds mysterious, but that's just how the path of martial arts is.

Those who can simply recite from the textbook may be skilled, but they can never be considered unparalleled masters.

It took a day, two days, and a full five days for the vortex of energy to slowly dissipate.

Lu Ming slowly opened his eyes, exhaled, and actually blew away the bamboo house in front of him!

His refined internal energy seemed to have been further enhanced; the effects of the Great Rejuvenation Pill were too strong. Now, possessing sixty years' worth of refined internal energy, he could almost rival Zhang Sanfeng, and wouldn't be left behind, only able to inhale the exhaust fumes.

[Nine Yang Divine Skill (Completed)]

Hiss! No wonder, it turns out that with the help of the Great Rejuvenation Pill, not only did the medicine increase the number of years of internal energy, but the Nine Yang Divine Skill also became perfect.

Cool!

At this moment, Zhang Sanfeng looked at the mess in the bamboo courtyard, his eyes twitching, and he gritted his teeth, saying, "You brat, you've broken through? Then take these kids with you and get out of here! In my opinion, you little rascals are just here to annoy me! Get out of here, or I'll beat you up!"
