Chapter 181: Chapter 179: Show Me the Opportunity
Qin Yu’s expression turned solemn and respectful in an instant, bowing deeply to Su Xihe, "Disciple follows his master’s orders without question!"
Seeing his attitude, the Sect Leader’s anger gradually subsided.
The situation has come to this, there is no turning back.
As long as Qin Yu can treat her sister well, being her elder sister and master, she indeed cannot interfere too much.
Qin Yu used to be unknown, and if their matter was announced rashly, it would surely attract much criticism. But now, he is her direct disciple, and his root bone and talent are obvious to all.
This conveniently crushes the old guys’ hopes.
"Let’s wait for an auspicious day to decide."
Hearing his master’s words, the stone in Qin Yu’s heart finally settled.
Recalling their first meeting, Su Xiyue stood high above the clouds as the First Fairy, and now, she is about to become his rightful wife.
He couldn’t help but feel a bit excited, a surge of uncontrollable joy and excitement quietly growing within him.
Does that mean he can...
learn more knowledge?
Su Xihe shifted the topic back to the pressing issue, "Leng Ruyu has been tainted by black Qi, and the Demon Sect’s leader sent her here..."
She explained the whole situation again, but kept her eyes on Qin Yu.
If Su Xiyue was also tainted by black Qi, why was Qin Yu, who had contact with her, unharmed?!
After all, he is just a Qi Refining Cultivator.
"Now, with two months passing soon, if Leng Ruyu’s condition doesn’t improve at all, it will be difficult to account to the Demon Sect."
Listening to the Sect Leader speaking of the seriousness, Qin Yu couldn’t help frowning slightly.
If the Demon Sect allies with the Hundred Sword Sect, it indeed would be troublesome.
Previously in Lin Xian City, he could have left if necessary, but as Su Xiyue is the Saintess of the Cyan Mountain Sect, how could she abandon the Immortal Sect and leave?
Besides, there’s the Sect Leader and Master Liu; could they leave?
However, to completely resolve Leng Ruyu’s potential issue, it seems the only way is...
Although Qin Yu is quite tempted by that demoness.
It’s safe to say that no man remains composed after seeing such a demoness.
She’s truly the kind who is beguiling to her very core, making people want to topple and mercilessly ravage her.
But Qin Yu must consider the consequences.
The first being whether Su Xiyue agrees; he can’t win the demoness and lose the fairy wife, can he?!
Su Xihe observed his changing expressions, suddenly asking, "Can you eliminate that black Qi?"
"Uh."
Qin Yu hesitated for a moment, but after all, the issue needed resolving, so he changed his approach and asked, "Master, do we really have to share this opportunity with the Demon Sect?"
Admitted!
So there really is an opportunity after all.
Su Xihe’s heart shook momentarily, but simultaneously she realized that this opportunity seemingly could not only eliminate the black Qi, but could also... enhance root bone!
Isn’t Qianqian’s root bone proof of that?
Hold on.
And Qin Yu.
Although he had an excuse, there was never any hidden ailment in him?!
If it were solely about clearing black Qi, it wouldn’t matter much, but such a huge aspect as enhancing root bone, how could they let the Demon Sect know?!
"You mean, this opportunity can... be shared with others?"
As expected of the Lord of the Immortal Sect, Su Xihe immediately grasped the key point.
Doesn’t that mean her own root bone has a chance to be... enhanced?!
"Could you let me see it."
"..."
Probably not.
This thing isn’t suitable to show to the master.
I’m afraid if there’s any movement, he might end up being beaten to death, or thrown out directly?!
Seeing Qin Yu still hesitating, Su Xihe immediately widened her eyes, lightly rebuking, "What, do you think your master would seize your opportunity?"
She is Qin Yu’s master and Su Xiyue’s sister; how could she covet their opportunity?
The main thing is her curiosity.
"That’s not what I meant," Qin Yu hurriedly answered.
He was all for it.
Just worried the Sect Leader might not want to.
However, such a thing shouldn’t come from his mouth, otherwise wouldn’t it give the Sect Leader the impression he had ulterior motives, wanting to challenge her?
His earlier words, though seemingly misspoken, were intentional.
In the future, when the Sect Leader sees Lin Qianqian and others, she would naturally figure some things out.
By that time...
Qin Yu pretended to look troubled and stammered, "Master, I promised the Saintess Martial Aunt..."
"I can’t even just have a look?!"
Su Xihe was a bit upset.
Qin Yu could only smile bitterly.
"Hmph!"
The Sect Leader huffed coldly and ignored him.
However, she was actually weighing the pros and cons, considering how to handle Leng Ruyu’s situation.
After the medicated bath was prepared, Su Xihe turned to leave the room.
She didn’t realize that after she left, Qin Yu’s expression shifted from troubled to a subtle grin at the corners of his mouth.
"Splash!"
He descended into the bath barrel, and immediately, the medicinal power surged into him through every pore.
Soon, Qin Yu began using the Hundred Rivers Return to the Sea Technique, and the surrounding spiritual qi quickly gathered toward him.
Now that his root bone had made a breakthrough, his speed of absorbing and refining spiritual qi had increased once again.
After about an hour...
[Cultivation: Qi Refining Ninth Layer (100%)]
Qin Yu was still cultivating, and the moment the numbers on the flame changed, an indescribable artistic feel quietly emanated from his body, like the first light of dawn, gentle yet profound.
This artistic feel influenced the surrounding spiritual qi, rippling outward from him and weaving a magnificent picture of spiritual qi, finally gathering into a torrent rushing toward him from all directions, forming a scene of resonance.
"Huh?!"
This sudden change first startled Su Xihe, who was meditating in the front yard. Her eyes immediately looked toward the source.
"Qin Yu?"
Suspicion flashed in her eyes, and then, with that spreading artistic feel, she instantly realized something, "Is he going to break through to the Foundation Establishment?!"
How is this possible?
As his master, she has always kept an eye on Qin Yu’s realm.
Though he has reached Qi Refining Ninth Layer, it’s merely close to the peak of Qi Refining. Normally, a cultivator needs to spend a long time consolidating.
It could be years, or even several decades!
Breaking through to Foundation Establishment isn’t easy; besides resources, the key lies in one’s comprehension.
"Swoosh!"
She immediately stood up, and in the next instant, appeared at the door of the Alchemy Room, then pushed the door open.
Qin Yu was still in the bath barrel.
But the mist had already thinned considerably.
Without any hesitation, Su Xihe took out spirit medicine and continuously put them into the bath barrel.
Thus, naturally she inevitably saw Qin Yu’s...
