After the time travel, my cheat program disappeared.

What could be more desperate than the current situation?

What situation could be more embarrassing than the one right now?

Qin Suhuai's pupils had become weak and unfocused, and she wished she could bury her head in the pillow.

She could only manage a voice that said, "N-nothing... Ugh!!!"

Shi Yan hugged Qin Suhuai tightly, saying, "Go to sleep early."

Although she was trying to comfort her, to Qin Suhuai, the girl's voice sounded like that of a demon from beyond the heavens.

"Senior Sister?" Sheng Nu's voice was quite nervous and uneasy.

"It's just... just a sudden realization!!!" The voice suddenly rose in pitch.

Even though she knew perfectly well that Sheng Nu had no cultivation or divine sense, Qin Suhuai still felt a sense of despair, as if she had broken down.

In fact, Shi Yan did nothing.

However... he activated a sword technique.

Three parts hidden sword, seven parts snow cold.

This is a 'cocktail' that Shi Yan specially prepared for Qin Suhuai.

Hey--

Shi Yan sighed, looking at Qin Suhuai's unfocused eyes. "Senior Sister, you can't go on like this..."

Your swordsmanship still needs honing.

[Leave of Absence, July 4th, Night]

The time is 11 p.m.

I have a low-grade fever and am currently working on the second chapter of my manuscript.

I'm getting ready to celebrate the opening of the private thread and the fact that chapters are no longer piling up for review, so I can get back to my daily update rhythm of 6+ words.

Then... the chat room was closed again.

I have a low-grade fever and a severe headache.

On the night of July 4th, I simply asked for leave.

One update today, sorry.

The reminder is because... if they start reviewing again... the update will be out by tomorrow, but the leave slip still hasn't come out?

That's all~~~

Good night or... good morning?

Chapter 248, "Su Huai is Resting," The Extraordinary Demon within the Azure Lotus Sword Sect [First Update, 4.5kbps]

A clear morning in late autumn.

A damp breeze brushed against his shoulders on Little Sword Peak. Wearing only a thin robe, Shi Yan leaned against the doorway of his room.

Qin Suhuai had not yet gotten up.

It was still very early; the distant sky didn't even show any signs of sunrise. The faint sounds of girls busily working could already be heard from inside the courtyard.

As if hearing Shi Yan push open the door, the girl wearing an apron wiped the sweat from her forehead and appeared in front of Shi Yan.

"Master Shiyan..." The voice was similar to when they first met in the game, slightly timid.

The girl was wearing a gold and red dress that perfectly accentuated her curves, resembling a goldfish.

The skirt was very long, swaying gently in the breeze of Xiaojian Peak, highlighting the girl's curvaceous figure and making her waist-to-hip ratio eye-catching.

She covered her apron with some embarrassment.

The skin on her legs under the apron wasn't exposed; instead, she was wearing a pair of long stockings.

Her slender legs were tightly crossed, and her pink lips were bitten, as if she hadn't expected the person who woke up to be Shi Yan.

"Clearly...clearly Master Shiyan and Senior Sister..."

"Good morning~" Shi Yan sat up and greeted the girl without any hint of awkwardness.

"Good morning!" The girl bowed nervously to Shi Yan.

She looked so reserved, as if she was afraid that Shi Yan would do something to her.

Shi Yan got up and walked towards Sheng Nu.

Under the girl's nervous gaze, Shi Yan reached out his hand. The autumn wind brushed against his fingertips, and the girl seemed to hold her breath.

Under Sheng Nu's anxious gaze, Shi Yan wiped her cheek with his right hand and tidied her hair.

The girl's eyes seemed to widen with shyness, her pupils trembling slightly, as if about to well up with tears.

Master Shiyan's fingertips seemed to still carry a faint scent of cloves.

In truth, Sheng Nu didn't understand what was wrong with herself either.

But... from the moment he saw the girl who had brought his sister to his side, his heart began to pound uncontrollably.

Especially in the current situation.

In the courtyard... there were only the two of them, himself and Master Shiyan.

She clenched her right fist and placed it on her chest, while her left hand gripped it nervously.

"Senior Sister..." The girl was lost in thought, not even knowing what she was saying.

As soon as the words left his mouth, he regretted it, wondering why he would mention his senior sister's name under such circumstances.

but...

She looked at the room Shi Yan had come out of.

Her weak breathing seemed to be in disarray as well.

"Su Huai is still resting."

In Sheng Nu's eyes, Master Shi Yan's eyes curved into a beautiful arc, with a hint of smugness.

The girl's ear tips were slightly red.

"It's just to regulate the sword heart."

"After our sparring session yesterday... she seemed to have gained some insights." After tidying the girl's hair, Shi Yan withdrew his hand.

Actually, she's not the kind of person who would casually approach a girl and fix her hair.

What's more... this is a girl like Sheng Nu, who hasn't even said more than a few words to anyone yet.

The girl's expression was just too obvious.

That shy look clearly conveyed a desire for him to get closer.

Moreover... Shi Yan's words were not without purpose.

She was sensing the girl's cultivation level and spiritual roots.

Just like in the game, just as the people in Jiameng City said.

Sheng Nu has no spiritual root and cannot open up his Qi Sea.

His cultivation level remained at the ninth stage of the Body Tempering Realm.

He reached the ninth level of the Body Tempering Realm by relying entirely on spiritual medicine and physical strength.

Even a powerful sect like the Azure Lotus Sword Sect couldn't help a girl break through from the ninth level of the Body Tempering Realm to the Qi Refining Realm.

The amount of spiritual herbs and pills allocated to Xiaojian Peak was only enough to strengthen Sheng Nu's body to a level where he could barely protect himself.

refer to--

Under Qin Suhuai's swordsmanship training, the girls were virtually invincible before reaching the Foundation Establishment stage.

But he's only at the Foundation Establishment stage.

In the Azure Lotus Sword Sect, the Foundation Establishment Realm is merely the beginning.

Shi Yan sensed the girl's breath and captured the almost faint spiritual energy emanating from her.

In the game, you can ignore the rules and forcibly help girls improve their cultivation level.

In reality... I don't know.

It should be possible.

After all, unlike the simple enlightenment in the game, he now possesses the "Snow Frost Technique," a "cheat tool" that is practically comparable to a celestial-grade technique.

After exploring the events in that 'Secret Realm of the Great Void' and getting a little closer to the girl, then I'll give it a try.

If a girl doesn't have spiritual roots, then he himself will act as her spiritual roots.

If a girl doesn't have a Qi Sea (energy center), then you should act as her Qi Sea.

However, before that... it's best not to give girls too many expectations.

He recalled how, in the game, Sheng Nu discovered that being with him would increase her cultivation level. The girl, having tasted the sweetness, then longed to be with him every single moment.

She left her and her footprints at every scenic spot in Xiaojianfeng.

That kind of thing... let's talk about it after we've dealt with the Azure Lotus Sword Sect matter.

Seeing Shi Yan withdraw his hand, the girl twisted the hands that were holding the apron together.

She pondered her teacher's words.

To calm... Kenshin?

Is there anyone in this world who can instruct the senior sister in swordsmanship?

Recalling the soaring sword intent I felt on Little Sword Peak before, maybe it was?

"But Sheng Nu... why is she up so early?" The two glanced back at the direction of Qin Suhuai's room and walked towards the direction Sheng Nu had come out of.

That's the kitchen.
