After being jilted by the saintess at the beginning, why is she crying?

Zhao Yun'er watched the figure in the green robe walk further and further away.

They only breathed a sigh of relief after disappearing behind a few spirit trees.

She looked down at the dress.

She hesitated for a moment, then looked at her tattered long gown, soaked to the bone and stained with blood and mud, before finally making up her mind.

Let's find a secluded place to change it first.

She stood up and looked around. She quickly spotted a large blue stone not far away.

It was more than two people tall, just enough to block the view.

She walked quickly over, hid behind the bluestone, and began to take off her wet men's clothing.

Her clothes slipped off, instantly revealing a jade-like body that resembled a work of art!

Her skin was as white as snow and as smooth as cream.

Her collarbones were delicate, her waist was so slender it could be grasped in one hand, and her legs were long and straight.

If I had to point out something negative—

That means her chest is too flat.

It's so small it's heartbreaking.

In the future, the children may easily go hungry.

Zhao Yun'er glanced down, her face flushing slightly, feeling both ashamed and annoyed.

She instinctively covered herself with her arm, knowing that Lin Fengmian couldn't possibly see, but she still felt like she was being spied on.

She bit her lip and quickly put on the dress.

The fabric clung softly to my body.

Although they didn't fit as well as my original clothes, they were still presentable.

She straightened her clothes, took a deep breath, and stepped out from behind the bluestone.

Next, we need to find the place my mother mentioned.

She looked around, her gaze suddenly freezing.

This...this place looks just like the place my mother described.

She quickly took a closer look.

Lakes, blue stones, and valleys shrouded in mist...

The more she looked, the more shocked she became.

Exactly the same as everything in front of me!

No wonder I couldn't find it after searching for so long above.

It turns out that the place wasn't up there, but below the cliff!

She was excited and about to search carefully when she suddenly heard Lin Fengmian's voice coming from not far away:

"Yun'er, are you dressed? Come here quickly!"

Zhao Yun'er blushed.

For some reason, she always felt that the question "Are you dressed?" sounded strange.

But she forced herself to remain calm, took a deep breath, and walked toward the direction from which the sound came.

After passing a few spirit trees, she saw Lin Fengmian.

He was standing in front of a small tree, his back to her, seemingly studying something.

Hearing footsteps, Lin Fengmian turned around.

When his gaze fell on Zhao Yun'er, his eyes lit up.

really!

I was right. After she changed into women's clothes, she was a rare beauty!

Her features were exquisite, her eyebrows and eyes were like a painting, and her skin was fair.

Her elegant dress made her appear even more refined and ethereal.

Although still somewhat green, one can already see the unparalleled brilliance that will follow.

only……

Lin Fengmian's gaze involuntarily shifted downwards.

That place is indeed very small.

Is it because she's still young? Has she not started puberty yet?

Zhao Yun'er already felt a little awkward appearing in front of Lin Fengmian in this outfit.

Seeing him staring at that spot, her face flushed red with embarrassment and anger.

"What...what are you looking at!"

Lin Fengmian snapped out of his reverie, chuckled, and looked away.

"I didn't see anything. Yun'er, you're quite pretty."

"Don't call me Yun'er!" Zhao Yun'er said angrily, stomping her foot.

Lin Fengmian wasn't annoyed; he looked at her with a smile.

"What should I call you? Also, since you're a woman, you shouldn't be called Zhao Yun'er, right? What's your name?"

"Since I saved your life, you should at least let me know who I saved, right?"

Zhao Yun'er hesitated for a moment before speaking softly:

"I...I am Zhao Yun'er."

Lin Fengmian raised an eyebrow: "Isn't this still Zhao Yun'er?"

Zhao Yun'er stomped her foot again in anger: "It's the 'Yun' with the grass radical! The grass radical!"

"Oh—Zhao Yun'er."

Lin Fengmian drawled out the sound, then nodded, "A good name."

Zhao Yun'er rolled her eyes at him, not wanting to dwell on the matter any longer, and changed the subject:

"Why did you call me here?"

Lin Fengmian pointed to the small tree in front of him.

Zhao Yun'er then noticed that there was indeed a tree standing in front of Lin Fengmian.

Calling it a tree is actually an insult to trees.

Because it was too short, less than half the height of Lin Fengmian.

The branches were only as thick as a baby's arm, and the leaves were sparse and unremarkable.

If it didn't look exactly like the map, Lin Fengmian wouldn't have given it a second glance.

Zhao Yun'er took a closer look, and was first stunned, then her beautiful eyes widened suddenly!

She quickly squatted down and examined it carefully.

The branches are pale golden, the leaves are pentagonal with faint red edges, and most notably...

Those few fruits hanging on the branches!

The fruit is only the size of a thumb, pure white, with a faint shimmering light on its surface, as if it were made of jade.

"This...this is a Bodhi tree!"

Zhao Yun'er exclaimed in surprise, her voice trembling.

Lin Fengmian was taken aback upon hearing this: "Bodhi Jade Date Tree?"

He had never heard of this name before, but judging from Zhao Yun'er's appearance, she was clearly no ordinary person.

Zhao Yun'er took a deep breath, trying to calm herself down, and began to explain:

"The Bodhi Jade Jujube Tree is a third-tier spiritual tree, extremely rare. It only bears fruit once every ten years, with a maximum of ten fruits each time. After bearing fruit, the tree will wither and die."

She pointed to the jade-white fruits, her eyes filled with excitement:

"The fruit on top is called Bodhi Jade Date. After cultivators consume it, it can temper their foundation, refine their physique, and remove impurities from their bodies! It is a treasure coveted by countless body cultivators!"

Lin Fengmian's eyes lit up.

That's amazing?

He quickly squatted down and counted carefully—

Five Bodhi jade dates were hanging on the tree.

Five!

Without hesitation, he reached out, carefully picked one, and handed it to Zhao Yun'er:

"Here, Yun'er, have one."

Zhao Yun'er was stunned.

She stared at the jade-white fruit before her, momentarily at a loss for how to react.

Why would someone share something like this with me?

In the place where she grew up, she was used to seeing deceit and treachery.

For the sake of profit, even brothers can turn against each other, and close friends can stab each other in the back.

Everyone lives behind a mask, and every word must be carefully considered.

Influenced by her environment, Zhao Yun'er appears to be indifferent and aloof, but when it comes to her own interests, she will not give an inch.

But now—

Lin Fengmian actually gave her one without hesitation?

She looked up at the smiling young man in front of her.

His eyes were clear and innocent, without a trace of calculation.

It was as if giving her this Bodhi jade date was the most natural thing in the world.

A warm feeling, unlike anything she had ever experienced before, suddenly welled up in Zhao Yun'er's heart.

"Eat it." Lin Fengmian placed the fruit in her hand.

"If we eat here and take the food out, won't we have to hand over half of it?"
