"...Have you realized the truth?" Qingying held it in for a long time before she uttered this sentence.

"Enlightenment?"

Nan Xiaoxiang was stunned for a moment, then smiled silently.

"Maybe."

"No wonder I feel much more comfortable with making medicine and seeing patients recently. I have no more distractions in my mind when practicing medicine."

"So...is this what you monks call enlightenment?"

"I don't understand." Qingying said with some annoyance, "But you obviously haven't practiced before."

"Is it possible to attain enlightenment without any cultivation?"

"Of course." A nonchalant voice came from the other side.

Biluo was flipping through a medical book out of boredom while adding herbs into the medicine pot and spoke nonchalantly.

"Skills are close to the Tao. The Tao is the same thing that all paths lead to."

"This woman has been devoted to medicine for such a long time, and her worries were resolved half a month ago. It is understandable that she has realized the truth."

"It's better to say that if she has any cultivation, she might be one of the fastest people to attain enlightenment in the world of immortal cultivation."

Qingying was still a little angry and pouted in frustration.

"…Strange. Why am I the only one who is stuck on the edge of enlightenment and can't figure it out even if I die?"

Nan Xiaoxiang chuckled and consoled her: "Miss Qingying, there is no need to be anxious. Enlightenment should be a natural process. It cannot be rushed."

"Maybe one day when my mind becomes clear, I will naturally understand it."

Qingying said "oh" and then shrank aside, still looking a little unhappy.

Nan Xiaoxiang smiled but said nothing. She turned her head and whispered, "Add two less Fuling, it's a bit too cold."

Biluo frowned immediately and replied unhappily:

"What! Do you really think I'm here to help you? The patient won't die if you add two more herbs."

"Now that the Wuxuan Cave is gone, where else can you go if you don't come to help me?" Nan Xiaoxiang looked at her with a smile.

"Are you kidding? I am a cultivator from the Great Purity Realm after all. There is no place in the world that I cannot go."

Biluo bared her teeth and said angrily to Nan Xiaoxiang: "Believe it or not, I will take Lian'er and run away tomorrow! You will have to deal with so many patients on your own."

"What if Lian'er doesn't agree?"

"Then I will kidnap her by force!"

"What if Chen Yin refuses?"

"Then what does it have to do with him?"

Biluo looked at Nan Xiaoxiang warily.

Nan Xiaoxiang tilted her head slightly and said, "But we are in need of a maid to warm the bed."

The two looked at each other for a moment. Biluo put down the herbs in her hand and pounced towards Nan Xiaoxiang with her teeth and claws bared.

"Bitch! You're looking for death!"

Just then, the door suddenly opened.

Chen Yin walked in with a fairy-like look on his face.

"You're back?" Nan Xiaoxiang's beautiful eyes lit up and she said softly, "Thank you for your hard work. Dinner is ready. I'll ask them to heat it up - ah!"

Before Nan Xiaoxiang could finish her words, Chen Yin had already thrown himself onto her shoulders and let her hold him, who was as soft as mud.

Nan Xiaoxiang was only slightly surprised, then she gently stroked his head like coaxing a child and whispered in his ear:

"what happened?"

"These days, why do the dregs of heaven always choose those brats with Chunibyo who haven't gotten over their old age as hosts?"

Chen Yin said exhaustedly: "These little brats all think they are invincible, and each one is more arrogant than the other."

"In addition to recycling the scraps of Heavenly Dao, I also have to work part-time as an ideological education worker for young people. Why?"

Seeing Chen Yin's depressed look, everyone in the room couldn't help laughing.

Especially Biluo, who laughed the happiest, with a hint of gloating.

"Still laughing?"

Chen Yin glared at her fiercely: "Wait for me tonight. Don't even think about leaving until the bed is warm."

Biluo turned around and ran away without saying a word.

-

After wolfing down his dinner, Chen Yin took a comfortable bath and then went into the boudoir in the backyard of the clinic.

Nan Xiaoxiang, who had also finished bathing and had long black hair falling softly on her shoulders, was reading a medical book by candlelight.

"How does enlightenment feel?"

Chen Yin gently hugged her slender waist from behind, rested his chin on her shoulder, and sniffed the fragrance of her hair.

"Hmm... I don't feel anything."

Nan Xiaoxiang's slender eyelashes trembled slightly under the candlelight, and her voice was soft and crisp: "It seems that it is not as difficult as I imagined. Success will come naturally."

"You are the first person in the world to have attained enlightenment without ever practicing."

Chen Yin held her in his arms and asked softly, "When do you plan to start practicing your foundation?"

Now that Nan Xiaoxiang has attained enlightenment, she only needs to repair the foundation that was destroyed by Biluo. Her cultivation will no longer be restricted by bottlenecks and will naturally improve.

"Not urgent."

Nan Xiaoxiang opened her red lips and said, "Let's wait until I feel that my youth is fading and I can't keep my youth without practice."

Hearing this, Chen Yin raised his head curiously:

"I thought you would wait until you could no longer make any progress in medicine before choosing to practice. I didn't expect it was because of your appearance?"

"I don't want to stay with you with gray hair in the future."

Nan Xiaoxiang seemed to have thought of something, and her cheeks flushed slightly.

Chen Yin smiled, held her delicate and lovely face and kissed her.

The candlelight flickers slightly, and the night is still long.

"Come to think of it. Is the wedding really not going to take place?"

Chen Yin asked again: "Isn't it a pity? Girls should all be looking forward to such a day, right?"

"Aspirations are aspirations."

Nan Xiaoxiang shook her head slowly: "A wedding is just a ceremony after all."

"I'm tired of all that trouble. It would be easier to get married in private."

"Or is it that you are unsure because you are marrying me without a formal matchmaker?"

"What do I have to be unsure of?" Chen Yin laughed.

"You're afraid that I'll get old and ugly, and you'll get tired of me and won't want me anymore."

"Do you think so?"

Nan Xiaoxiang lowered her eyes slightly and whispered, "No."

"But I'm not a monk yet. I'm just an ordinary mortal woman."

"Love between ordinary mortals is not so grand, tragic and decisive."

"At most, it's just three meals a day, and company from morning till night."

"...Are you willing to stay with me?" Her beautiful eyes shook slightly.

Chen Yin slowly hugged her and walked towards the bed.

"...Of course I am willing."

Three hundred and fifty-eight, dirty

Time has passed. Half a year later.

Wuling Sect.

At night, Shen Shuanglian returned to her residence alone and pushed the door open.

It was another exhausting day dealing with sect affairs. She wanted to go to sleep right away when she got back to her room.

But she found that there was someone sitting in the room, drinking tea.

"…Have you been waiting for me?"

Shen Shuanglian passed that person and walked straight to the bed to change clothes: "Just go to the main hall to find me."

"I don't want to disturb you at work."

Chen Yin put down his teacup and asked with interest, "You guessed I was coming? You don't look surprised at all."

Shen Shuanglian paused for a moment as she was taking off her clothes, then said nonchalantly:

"The news about Uncle Yu Ling has been sent to us by Wanxiang Pavilion."

"It is said that in the past six months, no new Chosen Ones have appeared."

"…It's finished, right?"

"Probably." Chen Yin nodded. "Today, there are 108 pieces of Heavenly Dao. No new Heavenly Daoists have appeared in the past six months."

"I think one hundred and eight is the upper limit of the amount of Heavenly Dao debris that a world can hold."

Shen Shuanglian didn't dare to look up at him.

She silently took off her sect's Taoist robe, revealing her hollow silver-white underwear. She did not hide it from Chen Yin and changed into a light blue, thin silk nightgown in front of him.

While she was sitting in front of the dressing table and putting her hair into a bun, Chen Yin quietly hugged her from behind.

"...Have you guessed why I came to see you?"

Shen Shuanglian's slender eyes slowly drooped.

"……Um."

Everything in the lower world was done, and she actually had a premonition of where Chen Yin was going.

For some reason, the atmosphere in the room suddenly became a little quiet.

Shen Shuanglian pursed her red lips, hesitated for a long time, made up her mind, turned her head and said anxiously:

"I can--"

Before he could finish his words, a finger blocked his lips.

Chen Yin leaned over gently, held up her pretty face and kissed it, then chuckled and said:

"Speak of it."

"Our little Shuangshuang has grown into a big girl."

Shen Shuanglian looked at him blankly.

"I know your temper. You are the most stubborn person I know once you make up your mind about something."

"I also know that no matter what I say, you will definitely choose to go to the upper realm with me."

"But no matter what you choose, I will still say what needs to be said."

Chen Yin said quietly: "Out of selfishness, I don't want you to go to the upper realm with me."

"why?"

Shen Shuanglian suddenly held his hand tightly: "Because I haven't realized the dual avenues? Isn't it enough to protect myself?"

"Give me some time, I'm sure I can--"

“The dual avenues are not a permanent solution.”

Chen Yin interrupted her and shook his head slightly: "I don't want to take you there, and it's not because of this."
