Fighting: I am Han Feng, I respect my teacher

"Ok?"

Han Feng's words made Lin Xian'er's heart, which had just settled down, jump again.

Have you ever thought about venturing out on your own?

Lin Xian'er asked anxiously, "Master, are you trying to send me away?"

Han Feng smiled gently: "How could that be? It's just that if you have this idea, you can make the decision yourself."

“Before you broke through to the Dou Wang level, you lacked the ability to protect yourself, so I wouldn’t let you go out. Now, you are qualified to travel the continent.”

Lin Xian'er remained silent.

Han Feng continued, "Back then, I also left your grandmaster to travel all over the continent. At that time, I felt that only by venturing out into the world on my own could I make my years of hard work worthwhile."

He sighed.

"Wandering the world with swords and spirited drinking, looking back now, it was an unforgettable memory."

“In the past, I took you under my wing, and I may have neglected to teach you about matters between men and women, which may have caused you to have some inappropriate thoughts.”

Han Feng paused.

"This is my fault."

"You are now an adult and it's time to choose your own path in life."

Lin Xian'er lowered her head, so her expression was not visible.

"it is good."

A moment later, she suddenly looked up and said:

“Xian’er has indeed reached the age of independence and cannot continue to rely on her master.”

Han Feng nodded with a satisfied expression.

"It's good that you understand..."

"but!"

Lin Xian'er interrupted Han Feng, saying earnestly, "Once Xian'er returns from her travels, Master can no longer send her away."

"When did I kick you out?"

Han Feng said helplessly.

"I'm just telling you normally."

"Really?"

"real!"

"Even if what happened this morning hadn't happened, would Master have said this to me?"

Han Feng's eyelids twitched, but he remained expressionless and said:

"of course."

"Liar!"

Lin Xian'er stood up and said.

"If you don't want to go outside, that's fine too."

Lin Xian'er sat back down, thinking to herself that although staying would allow her to continue pestering her master for the next while, she definitely wouldn't be able to win him over.

Moreover, his master clearly became somewhat unnatural in front of him.

If that's the case, it's better to leave and give him some time to recover.

"Well, it wouldn't be bad to travel around."

Lin Xian'er said.

"If you're not comfortable outside, you can come back anytime."

Han Feng said, "I'm letting you go out because you've grown up and need to learn to be independent. You can't stay by your master's side forever."

"Otherwise, you will never become a strong person."

Lin Xian'er nodded.

“I will arrange for a protector to accompany you, but you also need to be careful about your own safety and not take unnecessary risks.”

Han Feng had the second Heavenly Demon Puppet follow Lin Xian'er, and at the same time assigned two Dou Zong puppets to be responsible for daily maintenance.

"Give me your hand."

Han Feng reinforced the Heavenly Origin Finger mark on Lin Xian'er, and then placed the spatial anchor point on her storage ring.

Lin Xian'er let Han Feng do as he pleased, but she felt somewhat sullen.

Sure enough, those who boldly express their love will get hurt.

Is this the punishment my master gave me this morning?

She had secretly rejoiced that everyone else had left, and she could rightfully stay by her master's side.

Well, now it's all over.

"Master, are you in such a hurry to send me away?"

Lin Xian'er said softly.

Han Feng coughed lightly.

"Isn't it better to prepare earlier?"

After finishing all this, Han Feng collected the plates and bowls and quickly washed them with the Sea Heart Flame.

While Han Feng was washing the dishes, Lin Xian'er returned to her room and tidied her things.

She secretly savored the sensation of Han Feng's lips, a smile occasionally appearing on her face.

The sadness of leaving also fades in this reminiscence.

The unique aura that my master used to forcefully pin me to the ground still captivates me to this day.

Could this be the first time Master has shown such an expression in front of a woman?

Lin Xian'er guessed.

After all, he was just as clumsy as he was when sticking out his tongue.

It's a pity that she was almost able to master it on her own, but her master reacted too quickly and didn't give her time to savor it.

Lin Xian'er pursed her lips, sighed softly, and packed the last piece of luggage.

I'm taking leave, and I'll also post a separate chapter to explain.

Chapter 173 was indeed a bit rushed and not written smoothly enough.

The author's original intention was simply to advance the relationship, but they went overboard...

Since I never intended to push it hard, I didn't care about the readers' previous comments. However, the last sentence of chapter 173 was indeed a bit biased, so I understand that it was my wording that was inappropriate. I apologize.

As for the explanation of the evil fire, it is because in the original work, Xiao Yan made an evil fire "transaction" with Medusa when he was refining the Fallen Heart Flame.

Later, when Xiao Yan refined the Pure Lotus Demon Flame, a union of yin and yang also occurred.

Therefore, the setting here can be deduced slightly, which is the aftereffect of the fusion of different flames.

In fact, judging from Xiao Yan's refining of various strange flames, such as the Bone Spirit Cold Flame and the Sea Heart Flame, it can be seen that as long as there are no women around during the refining process, he can resist the urge to retaliate.

Or rather, the birth of evil fire is probabilistic.

But I'm more inclined to believe it's due to the combination of Yin and Yang.

The presence of a member of the opposite sex is what ignites lust; otherwise, nothing would happen.

Han Feng had just finished refining the Xuanhuang Flame when he immediately helped Lin Xian'er advance in rank. During the process, he was spat out a mouthful of blood by her and became tainted with Yin energy, which triggered the aftereffects of the fusion of different flames.

This was the first time Han Feng had encountered such a situation, so he didn't pay much attention at first. It wasn't until the evil fire invaded his entire body that he realized something was wrong.

He tried to dispel the "evil fire" with elixirs, but found that it didn't actually harm him; it was just following his body's instincts.

After Medusa made a "deal" with Xiao Yan, the problem of her soul was solved without her having to worry about it.

Gu Xun'er's cultivation level has also greatly improved.

So this is actually beneficial to both sides.

However, I don't intend to reject Lin Xian'er here.

As for readers who don't like this master-disciple pairing, I'm sorry, because the outline setting is actually inseparable from Lin Xian'er from the very beginning.

Of course, I will proceed step by step, learn from this experience, and try not to get too carried away with my writing and lose control of my writing.

Actually, I was in a rush last night and wanted to finish writing as soon as possible.

So I'm taking a day off today. I'll post a 2000-word chapter later, and there should be another 2000-word chapter tomorrow during the day.

[There's also the issue of advancing in Heavenly Rank cultivation techniques. In the original novel, it was described as a phenomenon where the energy of heaven and earth converged within a hundred-zhang radius. This wasn't initially included here, but later, when Han Feng actively activated the technique, this "phenomenon" was indeed triggered.]

Chapter 175 Seeking the Original Heart

Han Feng piloted the treasure ship and quickly returned to the border of the Eastern Xuan Continent.

"Master, please put me down here."

"Is this it?"

Han Feng asked.

"Well, I'll be leaving sooner or later anyway."

Lin Xian'er said.

Han Feng remained silent for a moment, then nodded.

He brought the treasure ship to a stop and opened the protective shield.

Lin Xian'er unfurled her battle aura wings and lightly leaped off the treasure ship.

"Master, I'm leaving!"

Han Feng lowered his eyelids.

"Ah."

Lin Xian'er waved to Han Feng, then turned around and fled into the distance.

She dared not linger, fearing she would lose the courage later.

Han Feng watched Lin Xian'er's departing figure with reluctance in his heart.

But no matter how reluctant they were, they had to part ways.

Lin Xian'er developed unusual feelings for herself.

Han Feng had to let her leave him, allowing time and experience to wash away the ambiguous feelings between master and disciple.

With a long sigh, Han Feng closed his eyes.

When he opened his eyes again, a resolute glint flashed in them as he headed towards the Buddhist region of the Eastern Xuan Continent.

Since he was alone this time, Han Feng stowed the treasure ship and flew at full speed.

It took only two days to reach the center of the Buddhist region.

He arrived in the city. Although it was a Buddhist area, he did not see a large number of monks. Instead, it was like an ordinary town, with people going about their business, chatting and talking, and the atmosphere was peaceful and harmonious.

Han Feng strolled through the city for a long time before finally seeing several monks in robes cultivating the land in the fields.

He continued deeper into the city and, beside a large mountain, came upon a simple yet elegant temple.

At the mountaintop, spatial energy surged, seemingly revealing another world within.

This is where Elder Shiyuan grew up, the Buddhist community of the East.

Han Feng stepped forward, and two monks came to greet him.

"Esteemed benefactor, have you come to worship Buddha?"
