45: Help her practice

Chapter 45: Helping Her Cultivate

Xiao Lingchen said noncommittally:

“These Tianyan Sect Disciples, relying on their numbers, wanted to forcibly snatch the points token in my hand.”

“Fortunately, my strength is not weak. After a struggle, using all my trump cards, I was lucky enough to annihilate them all!”

“Thinking about it now, I’m still very scared!”

Upon hearing this, Ning Huanhuan was somewhat skeptical.

Yun Zhanyi, who was beside her, frowned slightly and spoke indignantly:

“How preposterous!”

“These Tianyan Sect Disciples are simply too much!”

Xiao Lingchen was attracted by these words, and when he saw Yun Zhanyi’s appearance, his eyes lit up.

Yun Zhanyi’s skin was as white as snow, smooth and delicate, and her eyes were as bright as the stars in the sky.

Her figure was graceful, and the two peaks in front of her were more than double the height of Ning Huanhuan’s!

Xiao Lingchen couldn’t help but ask curiously:

“You are?”

Seeing Xiao Lingchen staring at her Senior Sister without blinking.

Ning Huanhuan felt a little uncomfortable, but still introduced him:

“This is our Little Bamboo Peak’s Senior Apprentice Sister, Yun Zhanyi.”

“Senior Apprentice Sister, he is our Sect Leader’s direct Disciple, Xiao Lingchen.”

After hearing Ning Huanhuan’s introduction, Yun Zhanyi and the others couldn’t help but take another look at Xiao Lingchen.

They were clearly all curious about this mysterious Sect Leader’s direct Disciple.

Xiao Lingchen also greeted her gracefully:

“So it’s Yun Shijie (Senior Sister Yun).”

Yun Zhanyi said with a smile:

“We are all fellow Disciples, no need to be so polite.”

“Don’t worry, our Tai Xuan Sect Disciples are not that easy to bully, especially since you are the Sect Leader’s direct Disciple!”

“After the Sect Competition ends, I will definitely report it to the Sect Elders and make the Tianyan Sect give you justice!”

As the saying goes, 'He who has milk is Mother', and Yun Zhanyi was so protective.

This also made Xiao Lingchen’s favorable impression of her double.

Yun Zhanyi then continued:

“I see you participating in the Sect Competition alone, without anyone to rely on. Why don’t you join us from now on? If we encounter any situation, we can look out for each other.”

Xiao Lingchen thought for a moment, then nodded and agreed.

“Then I thank all the Senior Sisters.”

Following this, he began to act together with Yun Zhanyi and the others.

They hunted demonic beasts together and collected points tokens together.

Soon, night fell.

The Dark Forest was already gloomy and dim, and after dark, it became completely lightless, so dark that you couldn't see your hand in front of you.

Under such circumstances, if they continued forward, the danger factor would increase several times over.

Therefore, Yun Zhanyi and the others decisively found an open space as a temporary camp, lit a bonfire, sat in meditation, and rested.

They would continue their journey after dawn.

The night was very quiet. While meditating, Xiao Lingchen suddenly felt a pain in his waist.

He opened his eyes to look, and it was Ning Huanhuan.

He saw Ning Huanhuan, her face full of resentment under the firelight.

Xiao Lingchen glared at her and said:

“What are you doing?”

Ning Huanhuan didn’t speak either, and pulled Xiao Lingchen towards the distance.

After arriving at a place with no one around.

Ning Huanhuan questioned:

“Why did you stand me up last night?”

Xiao Lingchen had known that Ning Huanhuan would come looking for him because of this, and had already prepared an excuse, saying:

“Yesterday, I met my Revered Master and received some guidance on cultivation. I suddenly had an epiphany and couldn’t make it.”

Ning Huanhuan asked skeptically:

“Really?”

Xiao Lingchen said:

“Why would I lie to you?”

“Could it be that you think I deliberately didn’t go?”

Ning Huanhuan pouted and muttered:

“Who knows?”

“I just want to ask you, what are you going to do about this?”

Xiao Lingchen smiled wryly and shook his head:

“Whatever you say we do, we’ll do.”

“I’m at your mercy.”

Ning Huanhuan smiled slyly:

“You said this, don’t cry later!”

The night passed quickly.

The light in the Dark Forest was dim, making the two of them almost forget the time.

It wasn’t until they heard Yun Zhanyi’s call that they realized it was time to set off again.

The two quickly tidied themselves up and hurried back to the camp to meet up with Yun Zhanyi and the others.

“Xiao Shidi (Junior Brother Xiao), Ning Shimei (Junior Sister Ning), where did you two go?”

Seeing Xiao Lingchen and Ning Huanhuan walk out of the jungle together, Yun Zhanyi couldn’t help but ask in surprise.

Xiao Lingchen was the first to answer:

“Oh, this morning we sensed some unusual activity over there, so we went to investigate.”

Upon hearing this, Yun Zhanyi’s expression immediately became serious:

“Then did you discover anything?”

Xiao Lingchen shook his head and said:

“It should have been some kind of demonic beast, but it had already run away by the time we got there.”

Yun Zhanyi nodded, and didn’t say anything more.

For her, what was ahead wasn’t important, as long as everyone was safe.

“Let’s continue moving. We collected too few points tokens yesterday, so we need to work harder today!”

After speaking.

Yun Zhanyi led the team and walked towards the depths of the Dark Forest.

The demonic beasts in the Dark Forest all have a strong sense of territory. The deeper they went, the richer the resources inside, and the more likely they were to be occupied by more powerful demonic beasts.

In other words, the deeper they went, the stronger the demonic beasts they encountered.

And the more points they carried!

They spent the entire day hunting demonic beasts and collecting points tokens.

Time quickly reached evening.

Like last night, they found a camp to rest.

When the night was quiet, Ning Huanhuan once again took Xiao Lingchen away from the camp.

“Xiao Lingchen, let me ask you a question.”

At this moment.

Ning Huanhuan looked up at Xiao Lingchen and said indistinctly.

Xiao Lingchen was closing his eyes and concentrating, and asked doubtfully:

“What question?”

Ning Huanhuan asked:

“What do you think of… my Senior Apprentice Sister?”

Xiao Lingchen didn’t think too much and said truthfully:

“She’s very nice. Although I haven’t spent much time with her, I can tell she’s very gentle and kind, and she takes good care of you all, just like your sister.”

Ning Huanhuan then continued to ask:

“Then what do you think of her appearance?”

Xiao Lingchen said irritably:

“Anyone who isn’t blind should be able to see that your Senior Sister is very beautiful, like a celestial being, right?”

“Do you even need to ask this kind of question?”

Ning Huanhuan rolled her eyes and muttered:

“Maybe you’re blind?”

Xiao Lingchen was speechless.

This was the first time he had been called blind.

He was extremely speechless.

“Why are you suddenly bringing up your Senior Apprentice Sister to me?”

Ning Huanhuan said:

“If I say, I want you to help my Senior Apprentice Sister cultivate, you… would you agree?”
