Chapter Thirty: The Painting Symbol Also Loses Its Power

  Ye Nan ignored Fang Wei, took a few deep breaths, calmed down the thoughts that had just been disrupted by Fang Wei, and began to draw all the talismans he knew with concentration.

  However, after he painted more than a dozen, he gradually began to feel a bit laborious. The spiritual power summoned from the Purple Mansion became increasingly difficult to control. When he persisted in painting until the fifteenth one, he finally felt dizzy and his vision blurred. The evil-warding charm under his hand was only half-finished when his spiritual power was interrupted. He hastily stopped and grasped the edge of the table for support.

  Fang Wei, who was watching with great interest, saw that something was wrong and quickly supported Ye Nan, whose face had turned pale, and anxiously asked: "Nan Zi, what's wrong?"

  Ye Nan shook his head with his eyes closed, gesturing to Fang Wei to help him sit down. After sitting down, it wasn't until a while later that he felt better, nodding at Fang Wei who was anxiously waiting by his side and forcing a smile: "It's nothing, I just fainted, resting for a bit will be fine."

  Looking at Ye Nan's face, which had already begun to show a faint flush of blood, Fang Wei slightly put his mind at ease, but still asked: "Are you sure you're okay? Do you want to go to the hospital?"

  Ye Nan smiled and shook his head: "I know my own affairs, you help me clean up the things on the table first, I'll take a rest, still have to go to work later."

  Deng Fangwei put away the things on the table, stacked up the talismans he had drawn, and Ye Nan had basically recovered. Ye Nan thought about the situation earlier, first drawing the talisman didn't have any reaction, but as time went on, it became more and more strenuous, probably due to excessive consumption of spiritual energy. He quickly sank his divine consciousness into the Purple Mansion to check the state of his spiritual energy.

  As expected, the white spiritual energy in Zifu had faded a bit compared to before. This situation made Ye Nan somewhat anxious, and he wondered if the consumption of this spiritual energy would affect his own realm. If it was consumed every time it was used, then all those days of bitter practice would have been in vain.

  But now there was no chance to let him worry, Fang Wei patted his shoulder and woke him up from his meditation. As soon as he opened his eyes, he saw Fang Wei squatting in front of him staring at him. Seeing that he had woken up, Fang Wei finally breathed a sigh of relief and said: "Nanzi, it's already 7:30, are you okay?"

  "Seven thirty?" Ye Nan hastily jumped up, just remembering the matter of Ling Qi, and had completely forgotten about going to work. Now the bus was not going to make it, could only take a taxi to rush over and see if he wouldn't be late.

  Watching Ye Nan rushing out in a hurry, Fang Wei smiled and pulled him back, handing him two fried dough sticks and a cup of soy milk, saying: "Don't rush, eat something first, I'll go start the car and take you there."

  After hearing this, Ye Nan's heart was at ease. While eating his fried dough stick, he mumbled a few words: "Wei Zi, you're really a good person..."

  Next, Ye Nan, who had been thinking about the spiritual power issue all day, collapsed onto the bed after surviving Fang Wei's hellish training in the evening.

  It's been a long time since he had focused on meditation and spiritual cultivation, instead relying on sleep to train his spiritual power. This time, Ye Nan was worried about the situation during the day and decided to meditate tonight to see if the loss of spiritual power would affect his own realm.

  However, the gathering of spirits at night made Ye Nan put his mind at ease, and the spiritual energy absorbed from all directions quickly replenished the consumption of the day. Moreover, when he was awakened by the alarm clock in the early morning of the second day, the color of the spiritual energy group in the purple mansion was several shades deeper than before, indicating that his spiritual power boundary had taken another step forward.

  This discovery made Ye Nan extremely delighted, it seemed that his own potential still needed to be dug up more in order to progress faster. For the entire morning afterwards, under the influence of this discovery, his spirit was extremely invigorated, and he had no complaints when accepting Fang Wei's training.

  Moreover, the unusual training enthusiasm made Fang Wei somewhat unclear about the situation. Fang Wei thought to himself: "This kid won't have gone crazy from yesterday's incident, will he? It seems that today's training should be relaxed a bit, don't want anything to happen."

  Yen Nan, who had a narrow escape, was still thinking with some regret when Fang Wei ended the training early: "What's wrong with Wei Zi today? Why did he let me off so easily! Could it be that he also encountered something happy and decided to spare me today?"

  The two of them, each with their own secrets, ended today's morning exercise in laughter. Taking advantage of the early hour, they bought breakfast at the restaurant in the residential area and brought it back home. After washing up, they munched on fried dough sticks and drank soy milk, chatting idly about Han Yan and Xu Min.

  "Nan Zi, have you been thinking about Lin Mei Mei these past two days?" Fang Wei asked with a sly smile.

  When it came to this, the thin-skinned Ye Nan's face turned red, and he quickly changed the subject: "Hehe... indeed, I haven't seen them for some days. You little rascal, don't you have nothing better to do, didn't you go accompany your Yanzi?"

  "Impossible, she's basically in class every day, and besides, I'm usually at home helping you with your training at night, so there's no time to look for her. How about we find some time to go play at their school?"

  This sentence hit Ye Nan's mind, and he immediately agreed: "Okay, I'm on night shift today, and tomorrow is just fine."

  The next day was Saturday, after lunch, Fang Wei and Han Yan made a phone call to arrange a meeting. The two drove straight to the teacher's university. At the school gate, they found two parking spaces and stopped the car. Fang Wei led Ye Nan to Han Yan's dormitory building with ease.

  The beautiful girls at the university are indeed famous for being numerous. Along the way, Ye Nan had already seen several very pretty little beauties. When they arrived at the dormitory building where Han Xue and others lived, Fang Wei called Han Yan after which the two of them squatted at the entrance of the corridor to wait while watching the beautiful girls.

  Fang Wei's eyes widened, drooling, shouting and pointing around: "This one is good, small and cute type... looks a bit like Cai Yilin... that one, that one, Nanzi you see... same type as Han Yan, and her skin is so white."

  The beautiful girls passing by covered their mouths and looked at the two of them with a gentle smile.

  Ye Nan, standing beside him, was sweating profusely, his cheeks flushed bright red. He hastily took two steps back, covering half of his face with his hand and muttered: "Damn it, how did he turn out to be this kind of person? I didn't notice it before. Next time, I'll definitely not stand together with him, or my face will be completely lost."

  It's finally here that Han Yan and Xu Min have come down, Ye Nan hurriedly went up to greet them, wiping the sweat, and was finally relieved.

  Xu Min saw Ye Nan, and a faint smile emerged in his eyes. Ye Nan walked up to him, looking at Xu Min with a silly grin, mumbling to himself, and finally managed to squeeze out a few words: "Are you okay?"

  After hearing this, Han Yan burst out laughing and covered her mouth. She laughed for a while before regaining her composure: "I say Ye Nan, you're usually quite sharp-tongued, but now you've become stupid? Did you do something to wrong my Mian'er, so you're flustered when you see my Mian'er?"

  Ye Nan touched the back of his head, looked at Xu Min who was also trying to hold in a smile, and chuckled somewhat awkwardly: "How could that be? It's not true, it's just that your Minder is too beautiful, I got a bit stunned..."

  Standing behind Fang Wei, he is indeed a good brother. Seeing Ye Nan's embarrassment, he quickly jumped in and said: "Xu Min, don't worry, I can vouch for this. Nanzi is very well-behaved at home and absolutely hasn't gone out to flirt with other beauties..."

  "You two are like two peas in a pod, what you say must be reliable, otherwise even a sow will climb a tree." Upon hearing this, Han Yan burst out laughing.

  Hearing Han Yan speak, Fang Wei hurriedly ran over with a thick face, half embracing Han Yan, and softly coaxed: "How could I, I've never deceived my little Yan Yan before, right?" Han Yan nodded in satisfaction, sweetly saying: "This is more like it..."

  These two are sweet enough, but listening to Xu Min and Ye Nan on the side made them break out in goosebumps. Ye Nan quickly took advantage of the situation and pulled Xu Min's small hand: "Let's hurry up and leave these two behind, if I listen to their conversation anymore, I'll vomit up my lunch."

  Yè Nán grabbed Xú Mǐn's hand, and her face turned red instantly. She hesitated for a moment, didn't struggle, but instead turned to look at Fāng Wěi and the others, chiming in: "You two stop being so mushy, let's get going."

  Han Yan listened to this and looked at Xu Min with a smile, teasingly saying: "Ah...ah... Wei Zi, look, my home's Min sister has a loving brother who starts to push his elbows outwards, doesn't want his sister anymore."

  Xu Min's face turned bright red with shyness, and she pulled Ye Nan to turn around and leave. Fang Wei and Han Yan couldn't help but exchange a sly smile, then followed the two lovers from behind, smiling mischievously.
