“Ah, you’re awake.”
Luo Yan feigned waking up, only to see Miss Shi sitting beside his bed, sighing with pity as she said,
“Junior Brother, what a pity.
You were so close to winning,”
“Actually, I was far from close,” Luo Yan “weakly” chuckled in reply.
Of course, this weakness was also an act.
Ever since Elder Shi Ding brought him back to the Penglai Jade Pure abode, Luo Yan had been maintaining a “comatose” state.
Even though his eyes were closed, he could sense that Miss Shi was feeding him elixirs and continuously watching over him by his bed.
His heart couldn’t help but be moved by this, which would be false to deny, but to say he was moved…
was also a bit strange.
After all, I was pretending.
If I were to be moved by Shi Liuli’s considerate care, wouldn’t that mean I’m actually duping her feelings, making me a scumbag?

Pushing aside his touched emotions, Luo Yan then made a touched expression and asked,
“Senior Sister, I haven’t caused you any trouble, have I?
How was your competition?”
“Oh, it’s fine,” Shi Liuli said indifferently, “I couldn’t beat them anyway, so I gave up.”
Luo Yan: ……
Sigh, how strange.
Even though what she said was true (indeed, she couldn’t have won), why do I feel this indescribable sense of gratitude?
Calming down, Miss Shi giving up was a good thing!
After all, that scoundrel Duan Fenhai was truly formidable and arrogant.
Had my Liuli gone up only to be beaten down, it would have been both a loss of face and a great harm to a young lady’s dignity!
As for her giving up to take care of me, of course, I don’t plan to deny that.
In any case…
ah, the hardest debts to repay are those of beauty.
Luo Yan sighed inwardly and then attempted to sit up, but Shi Liuli supported him.
“Be careful, Junior Brother!” she chided, “Your True Yuan has depleted; how can you not rest properly?”
“I have already taken the elixir,” Luo Yan said with a smile, pointing at his abdomen, where the Dantian is located, “My Qi Sea is full now.”
“It’s not about the Qi Sea, it’s the meridians, the meridians!” Shi Liuli, hands on her hips, retorted with a cold snort, “True Yuan depletion causes great damage to the meridians.
You should focus on circulating your Qi for a few circulations, allowing True Yuan to moisten the meridians throughout your body.”
“This…
Alright then,” Luo Yan was quite helpless.
After all, he couldn’t exactly say he was completely fine and not at all depleted of True Yuan.
He could only follow Shi Liuli’s method, faking a few circulations of Qi with the Three Flowers Gathering Spirit Technique, producing just a minuscule amount of True Yuan.
“Father says he plans to get you a better Qi Refining Technique,” Shi Liuli suddenly mentioned.
Luo Yan: ?
Wait, I already have the Nine Heavens Clear Entrance True Mantra, what else could I possibly need that’s a better Qi Refining Technique?
And is there even one that surpasses the secret teachings of the Kunlun immortal sect?
“What a concern for the master,” he could only sigh helplessly, for after all, Luo Yan was using the Three Flowers Gathering Spirit Technique, which admittedly was of a lower grade rank, truly leaving him no reason to refuse.
“Spare me the sweet talk, my father isn’t here,” Shi Liuli playfully rolled her eyes, “I’m going to cook porridge for you.
What would you like?
Today’s Liuli’s recommended recipe is fresh shrimp and scallop porridge!”
“Plain porridge will do,” Luo Yan had no desire to eat porridge whatsoever.
Having practiced fasting, why would he want to eat grains?
“Okay,” Shi Liuli stood up from beside the bed, smilingly said, “You ordered the fresh shrimp and scallop porridge, coming right up.”
Luo Yan: ……
Miss Shi left the room.
Not even half a minute passed before she returned, carrying a bowl of porridge that had long since lost its heat, obviously having been prepared earlier and set aside for some time.
“Here, let me feed you,” she offered, picking up a spoon, pretending to blow away non-existent heat before bringing it to Luo Yan’s mouth.
“`
Luo Yan sighed again in his heart.
Since Miss Shi wants to play the game of taking care of a sick person, as her junior brother, I can only keep her company.
Let’s consider it repaying the kindness for her giving up the competition to stay by my side.
Hey, thinking about it this way, my thoughts have become clear again.
Truly worthy of me.
“This porridge is really delicious.” Luo Yan was indeed very dedicated.
Once he had made up his mind to play his part, he spontaneously began to adjust his expression and said in rapture, “Junior Sister’s culinary skills are truly divine!”
“Of course,” Shi Liuli said proudly.
“Alas, it’s such a pity,” Luo Yan suddenly shook his head and sighed.
“A pity about what?” Shi Liuli’s eyebrows shot up.
“It’s a pity that Yuqing View, that has crafting, talisman drawing, herb growing, alchemy, divination…
is well-rounded in the various arts, but somehow just lacks cooking?” Luo Yan said with heartfelt regret.
“If it included culinary arts, my junior sister would certainly be the founder of a school, and should rightfully have a place in Yuqing View.”
“Bleh,” the Kunlun Mirror suddenly spoke up in his mind.
“What’s the matter, you broken mirror?” Luo Yan said immediately displeased, “If you are damaged by happiness, just say so, I won’t dismiss you because of it.”
“If I suddenly am damaged by happiness and can’t find out who the father is, it would definitely be your child,” the Kunlun Mirror said numbly.
Green Duckweed Sword: ???
Outside, Shi Liuli was made cheerful by Luo Yan’s words and said with embarrassment:
“Don’t exaggerate like that.
You are a cultivator who has already practiced fasting, and you should know that these grains are useless, merely satisfying the desires of the mouth and stomach.
How could that be considered ‘The Way’?”
Luo Yan was still squabbling with the Kunlun Mirror and couldn’t hold back his reaction upon hearing this.
So, you know all along in your heart!
You know drinking porridge is useless, so why do you still force me to drink it, Miss Shi!
Forget it, let’s just satisfy the palate.
After patiently finishing the porridge, Shi Liuli left with satisfaction, holding the bowl as if she personally had the porridge, looking like she had done a good deed.
Not long after, the eldest senior brother, Linghu Chu, entered the room.
“You weren’t here just now, so Junior Sister Xu drew this lot for you.” He placed the drawn sword on the table, “You’re in luck, a bye.
Wait for Xu Yinglian and Guan Shanyue to determine the winner, then let the victor challenge you.”
“Thank you, Senior Brother,” Luo Yan said with a smile.
Good grief, could it be that Miss Shi’s strong luck can really rub off on me?
I’ve decided, from now on, when I go out to gain experience, I must bring along Miss Shi.
The task of killing enemies and searching their storage bags will be hers forever!
“You should rest well.” Seeing that his complexion was not too bad, Linghu Chu bid farewell and left.
Thus, Luo Yan began to make plans in his heart.
If it’s Xu Yinglian against Guan Shanyue, according to Qiu Changtian and Ling Yunpo’s understanding of these two, the likelihood is that Junior Sister Xu will win.
No other reason, the Seven Crafty Exquisite Heart combined with the Nine Heavens Clear Entrance True Mantra gives her a substantial lead in realm, and she must have far more abundant True Yuan than Guan Shanyue.
Plus, with her Great Bright Fire spreading all over the field and the Fire Escape Nine Methods teleporting everywhere, even grinding down her opponent would be possible…
One can only say that, in terms of endurance battles, the Shushan Sword Immortals really aren’t a match for Kunlun Cultivators, and with Junior Sister Xu’s current strength and tactics, she could entirely form a specialized endurance battle deck, and hang up all Shushan disciples, except An Zhisu and Ling Yunpo, to beat.
If Junior Sister Xu wins, then I can take the opportunity to admit defeat, simply saying that the sequelae of my True Yuan depletion haven’t fully recovered yet.
Otherwise, if I really face her, with the Five Elements Divine Light’s restraint on Fire System Daoist Magic, there’s simply no chance of losing!
If I defeat Junior Sister Xu and she bears a grudge, wouldn’t that be asking for trouble?
