Chapter 948: Chapter 945 Picking Flowers Chapter 948: Chapter 945 Picking Flowers Granny Sun took the scroll from Murong Yu's hand, slowly unrolled it to take a look, frowned for a moment, then her expression relaxed, but she did not speak.
“Refining Body Altar also said there's no need to rush an answer from your side, Granny. To show their sincerity, they are willing to use a secret method to help a Great Mahayana Peak Cultivator from Daughter Village successfully ascend to the True Immortal Realm. Afterward, you can decide whether or not to continue the cooperation?” Murong Yu gauged her changing expressions and then added.
Upon hearing these words, Granny Sun's expression stirred.
The Mahayana Stage Elders present also showed a trace of eagerness in their eyes, but seemingly out of respect for Granny Sun, no one spoke. However, their gazes unanimously turned towards her.
“If that's the case, then it's not a problem.” Granny Sun barely hesitated before she responded.
“However, they also said that to cast this technique, it is best to choose a place with rich spiritual energy. The Refining Body Altar can provide such a place, but the energy consumed would have to be borne by Daughter Village,” Murong Yu paused before continuing.
“No need for that. If we really end up cooperating, are we going to send people to the Refining Body Altar every time? Our Daughter Village itself has places rich in spiritual energy. If they are sincere, let them send someone over here. We will prepare whatever is needed ourselves,” Granny Sun said without much hesitation.
“Alright, I'll relay this to them right away; I don't think it will be a problem,” Murong Yu said with a relieved smile.
In the stone chamber, smiles also appeared on the faces of the others, for this matter was closely related to most of them. Whether or not they would have the chance to step into the True Immortal Realm in the future depended on the success of this cooperation.
Time flew by, and several days passed.
Shen Luo and Bai Xiaotian, after familiarizing themselves with the village for a few days, found that, just as Granny Sun had said, as long as they didn't wander off, the village indeed did not interfere with their actions.
However, wherever they went, there would always be people from Daughter Village casting all sorts of measuring glances towards them.
At first, they felt like they were walking on pins and needles, but as it became more common, they got used to it, and so did the other villagers.
This day, in the early morning.
Shen Luo was sitting cross-legged in the living room on the first floor, practicing breathing and cultivation while nurturing the Pure Yang Flying Sword inside him. Footsteps came from the stairs behind him, and Bai Xiaotian hurried down.
“You're going again?” Shen Luo opened his eyes and frowned.
“Of course, what's most important when pursuing a girl? Isn't it persistence?” Bai Xiaotian smirked, proudly saying.
“Are you sure that bringing her wildflowers every day is truly effective?” Shen Luo asked, barely holding back a laugh.
“Oh, Shen Luo, Shen Luo, you don't understand. All women in the world love beauty. The first bunch of dew-laden flowers of the morning are precisely the most beautiful things that complement a woman,” Bai Xiaotian had his own theory.
“Has she accepted them yet?” Shen Luo asked with a smile.
“She will accept them today,” Bai Xiaotian declared with certainty.
“That's what you said yesterday too,” Shen Luo mercilessly pointed out.
“You… Never mind, I won't argue with you, I'll be late if I dawdle any longer.” Bai Xiaotian pointed at Shen Luo, then dashed out of the house.
Shen Luo watched his disappearing figure, shaking his head helplessly.
Starting from the next day after they had settled in, Bai Xiaotian would go out early in the morning to gather flowers from around the village, putting together a large bouquet for Lin Xinyue. Each time, she seemed indifferent, never even glancing at them before she headed out of the village to gather poisonous herbs.
Bai Xiaotian, unable to leave the village, could only wait eagerly until the bouquet in his hands wilted and faded.
The two of them, one picking flowers, the other gathering poison, actually complemented each other quite well.
After being interrupted by Bai Xiaotian, Shen Luo decided not to continue meditating and stood up, then sat down beside the wooden table.
He rested one hand on the tabletop and seemed to murmur to himself, “Yuan Qiu, these past several days you've released at least thirty Gu insects, right? Still no news at all?”
“Master, this village is called a village, but in fact it's a medium-sized sect with a rather large area of land. Throwing out thirty-something Gu insects is like tossing a few grains of sand into a lake–it's practically useless. Otherwise, I could release a few hundred or a thousand more Gu insects, and maybe the efficiency would be higher,” Yuan Qiu's voice resonated in Shen Luo's sea of knowledge.
“How could you do that? If too many Gu insects are released at once, there's a risk they'll be discovered. It's better to use fewer and be safer. Focus on places like the Jade Medicine Garden, where Liu Feixu expressly forbade me to go. Those are the key areas to search,” Shen Luo shook his head, solemnly instructing.
“Got it,” Yuan Qiu replied.
“Family name Shen…” Just then, a shout suddenly came from outside.
Shen Luo frowned slightly, got up, opened the door, and discovered that it was Liu Feixu outside.
“Miss Liu, what brings you to look for me today?” Shen Luo asked with a smile on his face.
“Cut the chatter and follow me,” Liu Feixu's attitude was as unpleasant as ever.
“To do what?” Shen Luo asked.
“Why ask so many questions? Can't I take you to see the sights of Daughter Village?” Liu Feixu said coldly, her face impassive.
Upon hearing this, Shen Luo thought for a moment and then said, “Alright.”
Liu Feixu saw that Shen Luo had hardly hesitated before agreeing and her expression eased slightly. She then uttered the word “Let's go” and turned to lead the way out of the village.
Before long, they arrived at the edge of the village's array. Liu Feixu quickly took out a palm-sized green wooden token from her sleeve and waved it at the array.
A beam of light shot out from the token and struck the array, opening up a narrow door about a zhang high.
“Aren't you afraid I'll take the chance to escape?” Shen Luo asked, somewhat surprised.
“Your friend is still in the village, isn't she? Besides, haven't you yet to achieve your goal?” Liu Feixu didn't even turn back as she retorted.
“Didn't Granny Sun previously tell me to give up hope? What now? Do I still have a chance?” asked Shen Luo, surprised.
“You could still try to sneak a peek,” Liu Feixu turned and looked at him, her gaze becoming very cold.
“I'd need to know where the Nine Brahmanic Lotus is for that,” Shen Luo replied, his expression unchanged.
In fact, he did indeed entertain the thought of stealing it, as it seemed to be the only option left in the absence of other alternatives.
Hearing this, Liu Feixu said nothing more and stepped outside the village.
Shen Luo followed her out and found they were at the same place where they first met; he understood what this implied.
“Was Lili'er lost in this area?” Shen Luo asked.
“Was it really you who did it?” Liu Feixu's expression suddenly froze, and she turned around, drawing her bow and aiming an arrow at Shen Luo.
“Ah, can't you use your head a little? If it really had been me, do you think I would ask such a stupid question?” Shen Luo sighed.
