Extra: Chinese Valentine's Day Special - Fateful Encounter (Part 2)(2/3)
And she will neither wait for those people nor help those people. Cultivation is her own business. If she has time to help others practice, it is better to seize the time to improve herself.
Mu Shenqing took You Xiyun to a restaurant. Just as he was about to walk in, You Xiyun asked, "Aren't we going to buy clothes?"
Mu Shenqing asked: "After you buy the clothes, you go directly to collect the medicine?"
You Xiyun said: "Go after your condition recovers."
"That's it. Since there's no rush, what's the difference between buying clothes before eating and buying clothes after eating?"
You Xiyun thought about it and felt it made sense, so he walked into the restaurant with her.
Lighting crystals illuminate the store, where there are many tables and chairs, most of which are filled with couples.
Mu Shenqing and You Xiyun came to an empty seat and ordered some food and drinks.
"Some time ago, I was practicing swordsmanship and encountered some bottlenecks. I felt depressed, so the master of the pavilion asked me to go for a walk. While relaxing, I also tried to find new insights. Today I happened to be nearby and noticed something abnormal.
So I rushed over. You are lucky."
While eating, Mu Shenqing and You Xiyun explained the reason why she appeared here.
You Xiyun nodded and did not answer. She had already said her thanks. Although she was also proficient in swordsmanship, she was not arrogant enough to give advice to the elders of Lingshen Pavilion.
Mu Shenqing asked: "Why did you come to Tianshen Continent? Just to find those three things?"
"Well, take a look here by the way."
The strong men of the demon clan told her that the Sky God Continent was rich in spiritual energy. It was very dangerous for crouching tigers and hidden dragons. Naturally, she wanted to come and see what dragons and tigers were hidden there.
Mu Shen was stunned, but at the same time he was very confused: "Thousand Melting Flowers... If I remember correctly, those things are not of much help to practice. Why did you take such a big risk to collect them?"
"Practice formation."
"What formation?"
"Empty Song Formation."
Mu Shenqing was slightly shocked: "Kongqu Formation? Why are you practicing this kind of formation?"
Many of the spiritual formations in this world can be arranged directly through the spiritual seals of the spiritual formation master, but there are also some complex formations that require the assistance of other spiritual objects to arrange them.
The Kongqu Formation is considered a useless formation among these formations that is difficult and of little practical use.
You Xiyun said: "Practice."
"..."
Mu Shenqing was speechless for a moment and didn't know how to respond. She had heard before that this saint from the Demon Clan was born out of nowhere. Not only was she powerful in talent, she was also a cultivator. She would do anything in this world.
Learn what you need to practice.
When I met him today, I realized how obsessed he was with spiritual practice.
Risking your life to collect these things just to practice spiritual formation techniques?
After eating, the two of them continued walking along the street.
On the lively streets, men and women laugh, and the whole city is filled with the sweet smell of love.
"Sister, sister! Buy a lantern!"
A little boy ran up to the two of them, holding a large origami lotus lantern in his hand.
Mu Shenqing said: "No need."
The little boy pestered: "Buy one, buy one! This sister doesn't look happy, maybe she will be happy if she buys one!"
They use their spiritual power to block other people's perception of their appearance, but their expressions can still be seen by others.
Mu Shenqing looked at You Xiyun, who had an indifferent expression on his face, indifferent to the lotus lantern.
Seeing this, Mu Shenqing couldn't help but smile lightly: "Then buy one."
She took out the money and handed it to the little boy.
"Let's go and let it go to the river."
"Have you forgotten that we are here to buy clothes? If it is too late, it may be closed." You Xiyun frowned.
"Will your injury heal today?"
"..."
You Xiyun stopped talking.
Following Mu Shenqing's figure, they came to the river. The boat was rocking on the river, and lotus lanterns floated from upstream to downstream. Many lovers squatted by the river, put notes with wishes into the lotus lanterns, and lit them.
Put down the lotus lantern.
Mu Shenqing came to the river, took out two small notes from the lotus lantern, and handed one of them to You Xiyun.
"what?"
Mu Shenqing explained: "If it is the Chinese Valentine's Day, write down your wishes, put them in a lotus lantern, then light the lotus lantern and put it in the river. If the lotus lantern floats far away, your wish will come true. This is what the folklore of Tianshen Continent says
of."
You Xiyun couldn't help but cast a strange look: "As an elder of Lingshen Pavilion, you actually believe in these folklores?"
Mu Shenqing smiled and said: "Believe it or not, it doesn't affect me. In that case, why not try to believe it?"
She put her note in the palm of her hand and began to write down her wishes.
[I hope to become the most powerful swordsman in the world]
You Xiyun looked at her writing so seriously, hesitated for a moment, and then started writing.
When she finished writing, a snow-white palm appeared in front of her.
She folded the note and handed it over.
Mu Shenqing took it, and when he put the lotus lantern in, he secretly opened it and took a look.
【Breakthrough of Shinto】
Mu Shenqing turned to look at You Xiyun and joked: "I don't believe it on the surface, but my body is quite honest!"
You Xiyun glanced at her coldly and did not respond.
Mu Shenqing knelt down, held the lotus lantern in both hands and put it down. The river flowed from top to bottom, carrying the lit lotus lantern slowly floating downstream.
Their eyes followed the lotus lantern involuntarily, until the light of the lotus lantern completely disappeared.
"Let's go."
Mu Shenqing stood up, turned around and walked towards the street, followed by You Xiyun.
"What wish did you make?"
Walking in the sea of people, You Xiyun asked.
"Break through the divine way." Mu Shenqing said with a suppressed smile.
Seeing that You Xiyun didn't speak, she turned around and looked over and found You Xiyun looking at her coldly. She couldn't hold it back and burst out laughing.
She laughed and patted You Xiyun on the shoulder, and said in a brisk tone: "I lied to you! I wrote about wanting to become the most powerful swordsman in the world! How about it? As a person from Lingshen Pavilion, this
Isn’t it too much to wish for? In fact, I’m already very good now!”
You Xiyun nodded and said, "I will help you in return for your helping me."
Mu Shenqing's smile gradually faded, and she asked doubtfully: "You help me? How?"
"When I reach perfection, I will practice swordsmanship with you."
"Really or not? How long will it take for you to reach Consummation? It hasn't been many days since you broke through to the Soul Killing, right?"
"A few hundred years at most, soon."
"It sounds like a good deal to help you collect two spiritual objects and get a perfect companion for killing spirits. But a few hundred years is too long to wait?"
"...The Great Success of Killing Spirits."
"To complete the killing of spirits! Deal done!"
"Don't be too pushy..."
"Let's go and buy clothes."
Mu Shenqing interrupted You Xiyun's words and walked quickly forward.
You Xiyun looked at her active figure and felt helpless, unable to do anything.
"A lot of people seem to be buying this sweet cake, let's have some too!"
"This paper umbrella is folded well. It's your first time coming to Tianshen Continent, so you should buy something memorable."
"That bracelet is also very beautiful. The pattern on it is very characteristic of Lingshenzhou."
"Aren't we going to buy clothes..."
The bright moon hangs, and the moonlight falls in the city, its colors obscured by the lights.
You Xiyun followed Mu Shenqing and watched her introduce the characteristics of Tianshen Continent to him. A faint smile suddenly appeared on her originally indifferent face.
To be continued...
