167: No words

It's a bit annoying; I can't post any explicit content, and comments aren't even going through...

Lin Feng and Yao'er, the two women, finished their intimate encounter in the pond, both left dazed and weak, slumped by the pond's edge.

Lin Feng thoughtfully didn't disturb their peaceful slumber and turned to go to Han Yunzhi's Immortal Cave.

Looking at the playful Yunzhi, whose Cultivation had not progressed much, Lin Feng felt a bit frustrated, like trying to make iron into steel.

"Yunzhi."

Lin Feng's voice was calm and unruffled.

Han Yunzhi immediately jolted, her small face tightening.

"If you cannot Core Formation within ten years, all your precious Spirit Beasts will be sent to the butcher in the island's market for practice."

"Ah?" Han Yunzhi's eyes instantly widened, brimming with tears. "Young Master, no!"

Lin Feng didn't even lift an eyelid.

This girl, all day long, only knows how to play with Spirit Beasts, and her Cultivation progress is as slow as a crawling turtle. If she's not disciplined, she might be ruined.

Seeing his cold expression, Han Yunzhi knew he was serious this time. Her small face turned pale with fright, and she nodded repeatedly.

"Yunzhi... will definitely Cultivate diligently! Ten years! No, eight years! I will definitely Core Formation within eight years!"

Only then did Lin Feng withdraw his gaze.

He then went to Xin Ruyin's Immortal Cave and instructed her on the Dao of Formations. After half a day,

"I have finished reading your insights on Formations; they possess quite a few unique points."

Xin Ruyin's cheeks flushed slightly, and she whispered, "It's good if it can help Brother Lin."

Lin Feng smiled, stood up, walked to her side, and naturally took her hand.

"Although your Dragon's Roar Body will not relapse, it still needs to be consolidated. As a reward for you teaching me Formation theory, I will help you consolidate it a few more times."

Xin Ruyin's cheeks instantly burned, the heat reaching her earlobes.

How could she not know that her Physique was already fine?

This person was clearly looking for an excuse.

But looking at Lin Feng's mischievous eyes, she couldn't bring herself to refuse.

For the next half-day, Lin Feng, under the pretense of consolidating the Dragon's Roar Body, Dual Cultivated with Xin Ruyin a total of eight times.

Only after he had "managed" all four women on the island, making them submissive and weak-kneed at the sight of him, did Lin Feng return to his Immortal Cave, fully satisfied.

With a flash of light, he was back in the Green Lotus Immortal Cave of the Myriad Sound Sect.

The Immortal Cave was as cold and quiet as ever.

Lin Feng calculated with his fingers; it had been more than half a year since he last saw Wang Ning.

His heart stirred, and he took out a sound transmission talisman, whispering a few words.

"Ning'er, I'm back. If you have nothing else to do, come to my Immortal Cave."

After doing all this, he sat down on the meditation cushion in the quiet room, waiting patiently.

Not long after, a light and somewhat eager sound of footsteps came from outside the Immortal Cave.

The stone door was not closed, and a petite figure, bringing a fragrant breeze, rushed in.

"Green Brother!"

Lin Feng looked up, and his gaze paused involuntarily.

After not seeing her for more than half a year, the girl in front of him seemed to have grown like a willow branch, her height considerably increased.

She had clearly dressed up carefully today.

A pure white silk dress accentuated her skin, making it appear even more pristine and jade-like. Her long hair was tied with a simple purple ribbon, with a few playful strands falling by her cheeks.

Her small face, with its increasingly delicate features, already had the exquisite embryonic form of a beauty capable of toppling kingdoms.

Especially her eyes, astonishingly bright, as if holding a sky full of stars.

"Green Brother, Wang Ning is at Qi Refining eleventh layer!"

The girl ran to him, puffing out her small chest, her voice full of unconcealed pride and boastfulness.

Lin Feng's eyebrows subtly twitched.

Qi Refining eleventh layer?

This speed was truly somewhat beyond his expectations.

Even with the top-tier Cultivation Technique he had given her, reaching Qi Refining eleventh layer in just over half a year meant this girl must have put in a tremendous amount of effort.

The words he had prepared to curb her proud demeanor reached his lips but were swallowed back.

The little girl, seeing him silent, thought he didn't believe her and added, "But Wang Ning will continue to work hard!"

She clenched her small fists, her eyes extremely serious.

"Wang Ning's goal is to become a Cultivator as formidable as Green Brother!"

Lin Feng looked at the flame burning in her eyes, his heart filled with tenderness.

Purple Spirit was Purple Spirit after all.

Even without experiencing the tragedy of her family's destruction, the resilience and strong will deeply hidden within her Soul would still make her choose to face challenges even in comfort.

With this Heart-Nature, her future achievements would certainly be no less than Nangong Wan's and Mo Fengwu's.

It was just that their starting points were different; she was still far behind now.

However, there was no rush.

He had all the time and patience to nurture this future peerless Immortal Flower.

"Well done."

Lin Feng's face broke into a smile, and he beckoned to her.

He took out a palm-sized purple sandalwood box from his Storage Pouch and handed it over.

"Ning'er, your ninth birthday is in a few days. This is an early gift for you."

"A gift!"

Wang Ning's eyes instantly lit up, and she cheered, carefully taking the wooden box.

She opened the lid with anticipation.

A translucent purple jade pendant lay quietly on the soft brocade.

The jade pendant was carved into the shape of a lotus flower, with layers of petals, lifelike, and a faint purple light seemed to flow at the center of the pistil.

"So beautiful!"

Wang Ning exclaimed, her eyes turning into stars.

No girl could resist the allure of such exquisite ornaments; even the future Purple Spirit Fairy was, at this moment, just a little girl who loved pretty things.

She held the jade pendant in her palm, admiring it, turning it over and over.

Seeing that she liked it, Lin Feng's smile deepened.

"Ning'er, this jade pendant is not just pretty."

His voice was gentle, with a hint of guidance.

"Try to input a trace of spiritual power into it and see."

Wang Ning complied, obediently injecting the faint but pure spiritual power from her body into the jade pendant.

Buzz.

The jade pendant trembled slightly, emitting a clear chime.

A light purple barrier instantly emerged from the jade pendant, enveloping her entire small body.

Above the barrier, mysterious runes flowed, exuding a reassuringly solid aura.

"Wow!" Wang Ning curiously extended her small hand, poking the barrier, feeling as if she were poking tough cowhide.

"This... this is a protective shield?"

"That's right." Lin Feng nodded. "It can withstand attacks from Core Formation Cultivators."

Wang Ning's small mouth dropped open in surprise.

For her, a small Qi Refining Cultivator, Core Formation was the Cultivation of her parents.

This small jade pendant was actually so powerful?

"Not only that." Lin Feng continued to guide, "Try using your Divine Sense to probe inside it."

Wang Ning did as she was told.

The next moment, the expression on her face changed from pleasant surprise to complete shock.

Inside the jade pendant was actually a vast space.

In the space, rows of white jade bottles were neatly arranged, all labeled: Qi Gathering Pills, Qi Gathering Powder, Healing Ointment...

On the other side, there were mountains of blank talismans, cinnabar, and various talisman-making Materials she couldn't name.

These were all prepared by Lin Feng for her.

He knew that once this girl Foundation Establishment, with her personality, she would never stay peacefully within the Sect.

The Chaotic Star Sea was not that peaceful.

He had to make thorough preparations for her in advance.

And in the core of the jade pendant, where Wang Ning's Divine Sense could not detect, a spatial anchor point belonging to Lin Feng was hidden.

As long as she encountered real danger, he could instantly tear through space and descend to her side.

This was the final trump card he had prepared for her.

Wang Ning withdrew her Divine Sense from the jade pendant space, her small face filled with emotion and bewilderment.

She looked up at Lin Feng, her eyes red-rimmed.

"Green Brother... this is too precious."

"Silly girl." Lin Feng reached out and, as he did when she was little, ruffled her small head. "I watched you grow up. Your safety is more important than anything."

He personally picked up the jade pendant, threaded a red string through it, and placed it around her fair neck.

The purple jade pendant, resting against her fair skin, appeared even more noble.

"Wear it well, and don't take it off."

"Mm!" Wang Ning nodded heavily, her small hands tightly clutching the jade pendant on her chest, feeling the faint warmth emanating from it.

Lin Feng then instructed her on some difficulties in Cultivation until the moon was high in the sky, only then did Wang Ning leave the Immortal Cave, looking back every three steps, skipping and hopping.

In the quiet room, silence returned once more.

Lin Feng looked at her disappearing back in the night, a smile playing on his lips.

Only nine years old, and already so graceful.

In a few more years, who knew what kind of peerless beauty she would become.

Nine years old...

A thought suddenly flashed through Lin Feng's mind.

Wang Ning was nine years old.

Then that little maidservant who had always been by her side, taking care of her food and daily life, Fan Jingmei...

Wouldn't she already be an adult?

Lin Feng's heart stirred, and his fingertips tapped lightly on the stone table in front of him.

He extended his Divine Sense, found Fan Jingmei, who was Cultivating, and sent a voice transmission.

"Jingmei, after you've washed up, come to my Immortal Cave."

Tonight, within Lin Feng's Immortal Cave, was destined to be another sleepless night...
