Chapter 45: The Awakening of Emotions
Qingxiu practitioners like Yuan Ying are not uncommon, as they pursue higher realms and are more focused than others. However, their combat abilities are extremely poor, with some even unable to use attack techniques. This Nan Gong Wu Hen is not only high in realm but also skilled in using true energy, and can be said to be the strongest person Lin Fan has met so far.
However, according to the Xian calendar, he should be very old and might have even participated in the Great Evil Dao War 300 years ago. Lin Fan couldn't help but think of the strange feeling he got when he touched Shangguan Feiyan's chest, as well as Snow Girl... Savoring? Wandering? Helpless? Lin Fan's emotions were extremely chaotic. The influence of the opposite sex on Lin Fan appeared due to his age. Lin Fan had always thought that dual cultivation was just a man and woman getting married and then cultivating together. But it seemed like there was something else besides helping with cultivation and realm.
"Huh? You're here?"
At that moment, Lin Fan was so absorbed in his thoughts that he didn't even notice when a swallow landed beside him. He only came back to reality when he turned around and saw a girl standing on the golden rice ears. Her long hair cascaded down like a waterfall, her white dress fluttering in the wind, her waistband dancing with the breeze, her eyes shining like stars in the night sky, her lips red and skin tender, her figure slightly plump... Who was this? Lin Fan felt his chest tighten, his heart stuffy, his whole body feeling light and floating, wanting to say something but unable to utter a word. This feeling was different from touching...
Not good, Lin Fan suddenly remembered what the 33rd True Person of the Sect had said: "If one day you see a girl and have... these unusual feelings, you need to do a few things. The first thing is to ask clearly that girl's name and where she's from. The second thing is to drop everything and immediately find me, I'll handle it."
"Is it black magic?" Kobayashi asked with concern.
"It is evil but not evil."
Lin Fan slowly stood up and looked at Shangguan Feiyan. Shangguan Feiyan was stared at, touching her face, wondering if there was something on it. Lin Fan said: "You..."
"I'm that bookworm, I used a simple disguise technique that ordinary people in Jianghu use, are you okay?" asked Shangguan Feiyan.
Lin Fan shook his head: "I don't know, I feel very uncomfortable."
"Could it be that Duke Nan Gong's true energy has injured you?" Shang Guan Fei Yan went over and took Lin Fan's left wrist to feel his pulse.
Lin Fan felt his heart beating rapidly, which should have been a warning that he was in danger, but he couldn't bear to leave, didn't dare breathe loudly, move or speak.
Shangguan Feiyan nodded: "The true energy you consumed is too intense, this will easily damage the foundation of your cultivation. Did you use some kind of Dao method that isn't suitable for someone at your level?"
So fragrant, can smell... The gentle breeze blew across Guan Feiyan's hair and swept across Lin Fan's face, making Lin Fan feel numb all over his body.
Shangguan Feiyan released Lin Fan's hand, took out a dan medicine from the Qiankun bag at her waist: "You have good luck, met the divine doctor Feiyan, take it, calm your mind and meditate, you will recover soon."
"...Lin Fan seemed to not understand what Shangguan Feiyan was saying in general."
Shangguan Feiyan furrowed her brow, could the injury be that severe? She tossed the medicinal pill into Lin Fan's mouth and helped him sit down. Then, with one finger, she probed the tendons on his left hand: "Strange... why are you breaking out in a cold sweat?"
"I don't know, don't bother me." Lin Feng irritably pushed away Shangguan Feiyan, this time directly pushing on Shangguan Feiyan's chest.
Shangguan Feiyan's face turned red, but she didn't get angry and asked: "What's your name?"
"Lin Fan." Lin Fan was struggling with himself, one voice telling him that this was a witch, the closer he got to her, the more he couldn't control himself. Another voice told him, get close to her, you want to get close to him.
"Who is your master?"
"Gate of Clear Clouds."
Is it that far? Upper Official Fei Yan secretly worried, Lin Fan's performance was somewhat similar to going crazy, and earlier when he investigated, he found that Lin Fan not only cultivated pure orthodox true energy but also had some Buddhist shadows. Could it be caused by dual cultivation of Buddhism and Taoism? What to do? This Cloud Clear Sect has a good relationship with the Demon Sect, and both sides have an alliance, if Cloud Clear Sect finds out that Nan Gong Wu Hen triggered the door people to go crazy...
Ximen Shuai appeared, flying over the rice fields with a puzzled look at the two of them. "What are you doing?" Upper Official Feiyan saw Ximen Shuai as if she had met her savior: "Your friend may have gone mad?"
"What?" Ximen Shuai was shocked, damn it, he didn't want this black pot. He hastily stepped forward to check, and Up Official Feiyan retreated two steps back. Ximen Shuai placed one palm on Lin Fan's chest, using his divine sense to perceive.
No, no signs of going crazy at all, the true energy is circulating smoothly, the true energy is pure... Ximen Shuai thought for a moment and slapped Lin Fan in the face.
Lin Fan was thoroughly awake and furious: "Despicable Ximen..."
"She said you're infatuated, let me try... hmm?" Ximen Shuai stroked his chin, looked around as if suddenly enlightened, and muttered to himself: "Eighteen years old, heart beating with spring love... heh heh, who doesn't have a past?"
"What?" asked both Guan Feiyan and Lin Fan simultaneously.
"Ximen Shuai sank into thought for a moment: 'Shangguan Feiyan, your father's name is Shangguan Chou.'"
"Yes." Officer Feiyan nodded.
"I remember you said we would get married." Ximen Shuai said: "It seems like it was something from the ninth palace of the night journey, what's it called?"
Shangguan Feiyan's face turned bright red as she muttered: "It's Ye Shixiong."
It's so stifling. The first time I felt stifled was when I touched Shangguan Feiyan's chest, I liked it but also felt rude. The second time was when I saw Shangguan Feiyan, I really liked that kind of stifling feeling, even my hands were shaking involuntarily. And this time the stifling feeling is a bit suffocating, my heart feels empty and hollow, like I've lost my soul.
A despondent and helpless expression was written all over Lin Fan's face.
"First, I'll take my leave; Miss Shangguan can attend to her own affairs."
"En!" Officer Feiyan nodded and watched as Ximen Shuai and Lin Fanfei walked away.
……
Ximen Shuai pointed downwards, and Lin Fan was unable to think as he fell down. It was a half-mountain with a flat stone on top. Ximen Shuai took out tea water from the Qiankun Seal and observed Lin Fan. Lin Fan's mind was elsewhere, knowing that he had always admired the Qiankun Seal, and his own sloppy behavior would at least earn his disdain.
Ximen took a cup of tea, leaned against a pine tree, and gazed at the blue sky for a while before saying: "When I was 16 years old, I met a girl who looked just like you, and she lost her three souls and seven spirits."
"Huh?" Lin Fan came back to himself: "What? You have it too?"
"Who doesn't?" Ximen Shuai said with a smile, "When she smiles, my heart beats along. When she's worried, my heart hurts. To put it simply, this is what they call love between men and women. I've taken a liking to that girl named Shangguan Feiyan."
"I didn't," Lin Fan denied.
"Hmph, a real man should be straightforward. If he likes someone, he should just admit it. However... this Shangguan Feiyan has already had her heart set on someone else... You're better than me, you'll have an easier time passing this hurdle."
"How was it?"
"Time, doesn't need too much time." Xi Men Shuai sighed lightly: "But I spent a whole five years. To cure this illness, you must first admit that you like Ouyang Feiyan, then tell yourself that Ouyang Feiyan doesn't like you."
