A ruthless bandit from the celestial realm, he began his cultivation journey after kidnapping the Em

Before Ye Chen could finish speaking, Lin Ningxue's fair cheeks flushed red instantly, and she interrupted him shyly.

"Senior brother..."

"This...this isn't a good idea, is it?"

"I...I'm not the kind of person you think I am..."

She pursed her red lips, lowered her head and fiddled with her fingers, her mind in turmoil.

Over the past few days, she and Ye Chen had become quite familiar with each other, and their relationship had grown much closer, but they hadn't yet reached the point of being inseparable...

And she's not the kind of girl who would sell her body for personal gain!

The Fire Spirit Grass before her was very tempting, but Lin Ningxue still intended to refuse...

"What kind of person?"

Ye Chen was taken aback, somewhat puzzled.

Looking at Lin Ningxue, whose face was flushed red as if she had a fever, he frowned slightly, a strange look flashing across his face as if he had thought of something...

Does this girl think I want to sleep with her?

this...

Do I look like that kind of beast?

Ye Chen explained with a helpless expression.

"What are you thinking?"

"What I mean is, I need you to take this Fire Spirit Grass immediately..."

"what?"

Lin Ningxue froze, realizing she had misunderstood, and instantly blushed, wishing she could disappear into the ground...

Ugh, this is so embarrassing...

She didn't dare to look at Ye Chen at that moment.

How could I have thought that way about my senior brother's character...?

She felt extremely guilty.

"If you have no objections, take it now!"

Ye Chen stopped teasing her and instead pushed the Fire Spirit Grass forward again...

Lin Ningxue blushed, hesitantly reaching out to take the Fire Spirit Grass. She clearly felt a burning heat at her fingertips, her mind still filled with questions...

She looked up at Ye Chen in front of her, her eyes darting around.

"Senior brother, you...you really want to give me this Fire Spirit Grass?"

"You're not kidding, are you?"

If this Grade 4 Fire Spirit Grass were on Immortal Cloud Peak, many female disciples would be willing to offer themselves to it, and not just for one night...

Just like that, I gave it to myself for nothing?

It seems like there are requirements, but if you just take it on the spot, it's nothing at all...

Meeting Lin Ningxue's anxious gaze, Ye Chen deliberately put on a stern face and said.

"If you don't want it, then give it back to me..."

He reached out to take it back...

"want..."

"Senior brother, I want..."

Lin Ningxue nodded hurriedly, afraid that Ye Chen would take it back...

She painstakingly cultivated spiritual herbs in the spiritual herb garden, but at most she could obtain spirit stones; she could forget about getting a fourth-grade fire spirit herb.

Now that a fourth-grade Fire Spirit Grass was placed before her, how could she bear to miss it...?

Seeing this, Ye Chen looked at her expectantly.

"Then take it now..."

"Hurry up and refine it, I'll protect you..."

Hearing Ye Chen say this, Lin Ningxue no longer hesitated.

"Okay, thank you, senior brother!"

She now completely trusts Ye Chen.

Even if he were to plot something nefarious, Lin Ningxue wouldn't be too opposed to it...

She looked down at the Fire Spirit Grass in her hand, which was emitting a scorching fragrance. She was a little reluctant to part with it, thinking she would save this precious herb for when she broke through to the Foundation Establishment stage. However, since Ye Chen had insisted, she had no choice but to pick it up and put it in her mouth...

The scorching heat filled my mouth...

Lin Ningxue chewed a few times, and the entire Fire Spirit Grass transformed into a rich medicinal power that flowed into her body...

She suddenly felt hot all over, and her fair skin turned visibly red.

"Quickly circulate the cultivation technique to refine it..."

Ye Chen reminded him from the side.

He had previously consumed the Fire Spirit Grass and knew how potent its effects were; if it wasn't refined and absorbed in time, it could very well cause a person to explode...

Upon hearing this, Lin Ningxue didn't have time to say anything more. She quickly sat cross-legged on the ground and began circulating her cultivation technique to refine the intense medicinal power...

Seeing this, a smile flashed across Ye Chen's face. He had achieved half of his goal for this trip!

Time passed second by second...

Ye Chen paced back and forth in the courtyard, looking at Lin Ningxue who was still refining, a hint of doubt flashing through his mind.

Isn't this refining speed way too slow?

It's just a Fire Spirit Grass, does it really need to be refined for so long?

As darkness fell and Lin Ningxue showed no signs of waking up, Ye Chen had no choice but to light the lanterns in the courtyard to illuminate the surroundings...

At this moment, he gradually realized just how extraordinary the "Supreme Induction Technique" was, tens of thousands of times stronger than these ordinary cultivation methods...

If he also cultivated the same introductory technique as Lin Ningxue, even if he had pills and spiritual herbs, he would still have to spend a lot of time refining them...

This may be the difference between geniuses and ordinary people!

Seeing that Lin Ningxue wouldn't wake up anytime soon, and with his stomach growling with hunger, Ye Chen had no choice but to take out another Fire Spirit Grass from his storage bag and start chewing it...

As the scalding medicinal power flowed down his throat, he sat cross-legged on the ground and began circulating the "Supreme Induction Technique" to rapidly refine the medicinal power...

Pure spiritual energy gathered in his dantian, and the aura emanating from his body grew stronger and stronger...

After a while, Ye Chen opened his eyes and exhaled a burst of hot, stale air.

After the medicinal effects of the Fire Spirit Grass were completely refined, he felt comfortable all over, and the spiritual power in his dantian became more abundant. Although he did not break through his realm, his strength had increased considerably.

Ye Chen stood up and stretched his limbs. Looking up at the kitchen doorway, he saw Lin Ningxue still cultivating...

She hasn't finished refining the medicinal power of the Fire Spirit Grass yet!

"Is it that slow?"

A hint of surprise flashed across Ye Chen's face, and he immediately understood why Lin Ningxue had only reached the second level of Qi Refining after more than a year of cultivation...

This girl's talent is still lacking...

If all else fails, I might as well switch careers and become a chef.

"Snap!"

A crisp sound rang out...

After a long silence, Lin Ningxue suddenly opened her eyes, a powerful surge of spiritual energy erupting from her body and shooting straight into the sky...

His entire demeanor suddenly changed!

A gust of wind swept outwards...

Ye Chen raised his hand and easily deflected the oncoming gale, then looked up at Lin Ningxue, sensing the change in her aura...

"Three levels of Qi Refining..."

"This girl has finally broken through!"

He chuckled and muttered to himself, secretly pleased that Lin Ningxue had broken through her cultivation level...

Coming to her senses, Lin Ningxue withdrew her emanating spiritual energy and realized that she had broken through to the third level of the Qi Refining stage. She was overjoyed...

He suddenly stood up from the ground, jumping for joy.

"I've broken through!"

"Senior brother, I've broken through to the third level of Qi Refining..."

"Waaaaah, I finally broke through..."

Lin Ningxue jumped for joy, looking excitedly at Ye Chen in front of her.

Excitedly, she rushed towards him and threw herself into Ye Chen's arms...

"Senior brother, thanks to the Fire Spirit Grass you gave me, otherwise I wouldn't have been able to break through to the third level of Qi Refining so smoothly..."

"Thank you, senior brother..."

Feeling the warmth in his arms, a strange look flashed across Ye Chen's face.

This girl doesn't look like she's anything special, but she's got quite a figure...
