Ning Wan was not wrong in her guess. Shen Jinggu did come here to give her extra lessons.

Shen Jinggu originally planned to leave directly, but halfway through, he suddenly received a voice transmission from Ning Zixiu.

Under the pretext of being Ning Wan's fiancé, he had already reached the great perfection of the foundation building stage, making him the perfect person to help Ning Wan with her homework.

He actually didn't have to teach. With Ning Wan's personality, he probably had no intention of learning.

He just needed to take some time to sit in her little yard.

But when he came in and saw Ning Wan, who had failed to draw Qi into his body, his previous thoughts instantly disappeared.

It’s not that he was afraid that this person would bring shame to Tianyan Sect in three days, but he was simply curious about how stupid his fiancée could be.

In other words, he wanted to know if there really were people in this world who could never learn no matter how hard they tried.

Ning Wan's hand on the back of her neck didn't stay there for too long, especially after she noticed that Chen Jinggu was staring at her.

She remembered that in the original text, one of the main reasons why Shen Jinggu disliked her was that he thought she was too delicate, too weak, and not ambitious.

There's no way around it, she's just doing her job based on her character.

"You don't have to think about breaking through. If you could break through, you would have established your foundation long ago, and you wouldn't be at the third level of Qi Refining now."

Looking at Ning Wan who put down her hands and sat obediently at the table, Chen Jinggu subconsciously lowered his voice a little, but the words he said made Ning Wan want to overturn the table.

Ning Wan's fair cheeks turned slightly red, and even her eyes gradually became misty.

Looking down at Ning Wan who dared not refute, Shen Jinggu tightened his grip.

His fiancée was a little different from what he had imagined.

Everyone said she was arrogant and jealous, but why did he look like a kitten whose claws hadn't been sharpened yet?

With her condition, let alone catching someone, even biting someone would break her own teeth first.

Thinking of that scene, Chen Jinggu pulled out a very faint smile at the corner of his mouth, but before Ning Wan noticed, his face turned cold again.

Chen Jinggu naturally thought that Ning Wan's face was blushing because of embarrassment, but he didn't know that it was actually because Ning Wan was angry.

Shen Jinggu was telling the truth, but precisely because it was the truth, Ning Wan became even angrier.

Ever since she stopped at the third level of Qi Refining, the phrase she heard most often was:

It's beautiful, but it's a pity that she is so beautiful but has a tragic life.

The lifespan of the third level of Qi Refining is only about a hundred years at most, but for immortal cultivators, a hundred years is just a blink of an eye.

A hundred years later, no matter how beautiful she is, no matter how rich the Tianyan Sect is, or how many elixirs they have to prolong her life, it will not last forever. She will become old and ugly, and in the end, only a handful of earth will be left.

Anyone who hears such discouraging words every other day will not feel good.

[Host, don't be sad, at least they acknowledge your beauty.]

When Ning Wan heard this, the blush on her face slowly faded away.

Well, okay, she admitted that Xiaoqi knew how to comfort her.

Chen Jinggu looked at Ning Wan who seemed to be distracted. As if he had thought of something, he suddenly took a few steps forward.

Looking at Chen Jinggu who suddenly approached, Ning Wan naturally thought of the scene that had just happened. She was afraid that the other party would pull her up again, so she shrank back.

Her bright eyes moved slightly, and a hint of vigilance flashed across her eyes.

In just a moment, Ning Wan realized that she had overreacted.

Chen Jinggu took in the whole scene, and only when he saw Ning Wan move back as if nothing had happened did his expression ease a little.

Ning Wan opened her lips slightly, her eyes sparkling. Just as she was about to ask, she saw Chen Jinggu raise his hand again, and the memory of being dominated surged again.

Chen Jinggu's brows were cold, and when Ning Wan was about to hide, he spoke: "Don't move."

The tone was a little warning and chilling, so Ning Wan couldn't react for a moment.

He just raised his eyes slightly and looked at Shen Jinggu in front of him in a daze.

"Close your eyes."

Hearing this, Ning Wan was extremely obedient and closed her eyes.

Just the slightly trembling eyelashes made it easy to see her nervousness.

Chen Jinggu couldn't help but raise his hand, and the tips of his index and middle fingers fell on her forehead, lightly touching it.

The soft touch made Shen Jinggu's fingers stiffen for a moment, and also made Ning Wan's heart tighten.

Lingtai is not a place that anyone can touch.

If Shen Jinggu wanted to kill her, he only needed to use a little more force and she would be able to change her identity.

A stream of spiritual power flowed along the spiritual platform and into Ning Wan's body.

Suddenly, Ning Wan felt warm all over.

After realizing that something was wrong, she wanted to retreat, but she was too weak and Shen Jinggu did not give her a chance to escape.

The pressure emanating from him suppressed her, making her unable to move at all, and she didn't even have the ability to raise her hand to stop him.

[Host, don't be afraid. The hero has only cast a protective barrier on you, which can help you block a fatal injury.]

Looking at the male protagonist who placed his fingertips on the host's spiritual platform, and realizing that the host was afraid, Xiao Qi explained truthfully.

After getting the answer, Ning Wan frowned slightly, then slowly relaxed: Well, he is a pretty nice person.

Xiaoqi: I always feel like something is weird, but I can’t put my finger on it.

Chen Jinggu withdrew his hand and looked at Ning Wan, who frowned, then loosened her hand without saying a word. He chuckled and said, "Does it hurt?"

He has restrained his strength.

Taking Ning Wan's realm into consideration, he deliberately lowered his own cultivation before taking action, fearing that his spiritual power would collide with her body.
