Under One Person: Feng Shui Master, I Will Protect the Mountains and Rivers with My Own Body

After receiving Yan Sen's permission, Lu Linglong didn't stand on ceremony with him at all. She had no airs of a well-bred young lady, and with half of a watermelon she had cracked open, she sat down on the bluestone under the trellis and ate it with juice dripping down her face.

"Brother, eat some watermelon, watermelon is delicious..."

Pink watermelon juice dripped down her lips, staining a large area of ​​the front of her fine white short-sleeved shirt red. It looked like it would take some effort to wash it clean.

The melons grown in Yansen are not only big, but their crispness and sweetness are absolutely amazing. Every bite is like biting into a sugar bomb.

Seeing her cousin's "rude" behavior, Lu Lin frowned slightly and instinctively wanted to remind her to be mindful of the Lu family's reputation.

But when the words were about to come out, she remembered what her cousin had said earlier, and looking at Yan Sen's lazy appearance, who didn't seem to care at all, she finally sighed and swallowed back her lecturing tone.

Since we're here, let's make the best of it.

He casually picked a bright purple grape from the grape trellis next to him, and without wiping it, put it directly into his mouth.

The teeth tapped lightly.

"Hmm?" Lu Lin's eyes lit up instantly.

There is no sourness or astringency whatsoever, only a pure and rich sweet aroma that explodes in the mouth. The flesh is firm and chewy, and as the juice goes down the throat, a very faint but cool sensation slides down the esophagus, invigorating the spirit.

Lu Lin abandoned her reserve and reached out again, this time plucking a whole bunch. But instead of eating it, she turned and gave Yan Sen a thumbs up, a rare hint of youthful excitement showing on her usually serious face: "Brother Yan, you really are amazing, then I won't be polite."

"Of course, don't be shy, Brother Lin. I dared to bring you here because I'm not afraid you'll eat."

Yan Sen sat cross-legged on a large, protruding rock, one hand pressed against the ground, a faint golden light emanating from his fingertips as he subtly adjusted the direction of the earth's veins in this basin.

"Before, my abilities weren't enough; I could only manage one harvest a year. This time, I'm back thinking of making some changes so that the fruit here can be harvested three times a year in the future. You can eat as much as you want, otherwise it will all rot on the ground if we can't finish it, which would be a real waste."

Beside him, Chen Duo was holding a peach that was bigger than her face, her little mouth moving non-stop.

The peaches were plump and pink, with thin skin and thick flesh. You could easily peel off a layer of skin to reveal the white and pink flesh inside.

Chen Duo ate with great relish, her cheeks puffed out like a little hamster. Although her face remained expressionless, her bright green eyes were full of satisfaction, clearly indicating that she was very pleased with the taste of the peach.

Twenty minutes later...

As expected of extraordinary individuals, none of the people present were very old, but their appetites were truly enormous.

Especially looking at the petite Lu Linglong, her belly seemed to be connected to another dimension.

After devouring half a watermelon, he then swiftly devoured two peaches, two bunches of grapes, and several deep red strawberries.

At this moment, Lu Linglong was sprawled on the grass next to the large rock beneath Yan Sen, completely lacking any decorum. She held her round belly in both hands, looking like she was still unsatisfied but also very uncomfortable, with a dazed look in her eyes.

"Burp~"

A loud burp broke the tranquility of the valley.

"Linglong, I told you to stop, but you wouldn't listen. Overeating damages your spleen and stomach, and now you're feeling unwell, burp~"

Lu Lin was sternly reprimanding her cousin when, before she could finish speaking, she couldn't help but let out a loud burp, making the young master of the Lu family blush.

"Oh, brother, don't be so hypocritical..." Lu Linglong rubbed her stomach a little embarrassedly and muttered, "I just couldn't resist. These fruits are so delicious, and they have this... irresistible quality. Besides, it's a rare opportunity. After we leave in a few days, who knows when we'll get to eat them again? Of course, I have to try them all!"

As they were talking, Lu Linglong suddenly noticed that Chen Duo next to her had made a move.

After finishing the last bite of the peach, Xiao Chenduo carefully buried the peach pit in the soil. Then, without caring that the ground was dirty, she sat cross-legged, facing the sky, closed her eyes, and began to circulate her Qi.

As she breathed in and out, a faint blush rose on her face, as if she had entered a mysterious state.

"Huh?" Lu Linglong asked curiously, propping herself up. "Duo'er, you're cultivating so diligently? Even when you're out playing, you have to practice?"

"I told her."

Yan Sen slowly opened his eyes, withdrew his hand from the stone, looked at the bewildered Lu Linglong and the embarrassed Lu Lin, and said with a half-smile, "You two can try it too, maybe you'll be pleasantly surprised. What you eat is good, but if you can digest it in your meridians, that's a real opportunity."

Lu Linglong was puzzled, but she had one advantage—she listened to advice.

Especially since she had just eaten so much delicious food, Yan Sen's favorability towards her was soaring, almost as much as that of her own brother.

"Although I don't understand, I believe in Brother Yan!"

Without saying a word, Lu Linglong sat up and, imitating Chen Duo, assumed a strange but extremely stable posture, and began to regulate her breathing.

Lu Lin, who was standing next to her, hesitated for a moment.

He looked at Yan Sen, then at his sister and Chen Duo who were already in meditation, his eyes flickering.

In the world of supernatural beings, practicing one's internal energy in front of outsiders is actually a taboo.

Because the routes and methods of circulating Qi are closely guarded secrets of each school and sect.

Once someone sees through your Qi circulation, it's easy for them to find your weaknesses or even steal your knowledge.

The Lu family has strict rules, and Lu Lin's upbringing instilled in him a habitual vigilance.

Especially when one's methods cannot be easily revealed...

Yan Sen saw his concerns but didn't point them out. He just sat there lazily, watching the pure and ethereal aura gradually rising from Lu Linglong's body, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes.

"Huh? It's actually the Quanzhen alchemy method?" Yan Sen stroked his chin thoughtfully. "The path of cultivating both body and mind is indeed reliable, and it's truly powerful once mastered, but it takes the most time and effort, and it's not easy to follow."

Although Yan Sen was not a traditional Taoist priest or a member of the Quanzhen School, he had honed his eyesight since childhood. With his years of experience traveling the world and being guided by Zhang Zhiwei and Tian Jinzhong, he could at least discern the patterns of most extraordinary people, if not have exceptionally high insight.

Lu Linglong's posture in circulating her Qi, her focus on internal energy, and her long, drawn-out breath clearly indicate that she is practicing the internal alchemy skills of the Quanzhen School.

Hearing Yan Sen reveal his sister's cultivation method in one sentence, Lu Lin's heart skipped a beat, and the tension of being exposed intensified.

"...Brother Yan, I..." Lu Lin opened her mouth, seemingly feeling a little embarrassed because she hadn't chosen to unconditionally trust Yan Sen like Lu Linglong did. She wanted to explain, but Yan Sen waved her hand to interrupt her.

"Lin-ge, don't worry about it."

Yan Sen jumped off the rock, patted the dirt off his bottom, and smiled openly and sincerely.

"Just as you didn't press me about the methods I used to create this out-of-season scene, I won't question the origins of your techniques either. Everyone has their own secrets and concerns."

Yan Sen walked up to Lu Lin, reached out and picked a leaf off his shoulder. His tone became somewhat casual, yet it exuded a reassuring power.

"Although I'm shrewd and curious, that applies to outsiders. It's different with friends. I, Yan Sen, have that much integrity; I would never pry into a friend's secrets. If you can tell me, I will, won't I?"

Upon hearing this, Lu Lin felt a warmth in her heart, and her tense mood instantly eased.

"Thank you for your understanding, Brother Xie. I am deeply grateful." He solemnly cupped his hands in a gesture of respect, a very high level of courtesy between peers.

"Forget about being grateful, you're the one who's losing out anyway."

Yan Sen chuckled mischievously and pointed at Lu Linglong and Chen Duo, who were circulating their Qi: "The 'good stuff' contained in this fruit is most active right after you eat it, and the absorption effect is best when combined with Qi circulation. Lin-ge, you'll have to go back and experience it slowly. It won't be without effect, but it might be a bit less effective than it is now. That's what they call—first come, first served."

"Good stuff? What good stuff?"

Lu Lin was stunned, somewhat taken aback.

He admitted that the fruits Yan Sen grew were impeccable in terms of texture, appearance, and taste, far surpassing all imported high-end fruits. But to say they were good enough to help with the circulation of Qi... he really hadn't considered that possibility.

After all, it's just fruit, not some legendary elixir from Laozi's alchemy furnace.

Just then, Lu Linglong, who had been sitting cross-legged with her eyes closed, suddenly opened her eyes.

In that instant, a glint of light seemed to flash in her pupils, and her aura became even more refined than before.

She exhaled a long breath, which lingered and floated two feet into the air before slowly disappearing.

"call......"

Lu Linglong looked down at her hands, and then felt the Qi within her body, which, though less abundant, was more refined and active. Her gaze towards Yan Sen changed.

"Brother!" She turned to look at Lu Lin, her tone slightly grave, "The fruit that Brother Yan made us eat just now... increased the speed of my Qi circulation..."

Despite her young age, Lu Linglong is very shrewd.

If those fruits were simply delicious, and Yan Ge let her eat them, then she would have eaten them; it was merely to satisfy her cravings.

But what if it's a rare and precious material that can directly increase cultivation speed, purify primordial Qi, and seems to have no side effects...?

That would completely change the nature of the matter.

I owe this a huge favor.
