Xiao Ye was stunned when he heard Ling Jingxuan utter hundreds of words in one breath.

He looked shocked, his eyes darting around, trying to figure out how much of what he said was true and which was false.

Seeing Xiao Ye's dazed expression, Ling Jingxuan felt both angry and amused.

"You don't believe me?" After knowing me for three hundred years, he still doesn't believe me.

Startled by his gaze, Xiao Ye quickly shook his head. "No, no."

How could he dare to tell the truth?

He'll be crushed by Ling Jingxuan later.

This person is extremely petty and holds grudges the most.

"Hmm, that's good. Be good, my little Xiao Ye, don't move~" Ling Jingxuan smiled wickedly, his eyes upturned as if he were smiling too.

Xiao Ye looked utterly hopeless, completely surrendering, and dared not move, fearing that Ling Jingxuan would get angry and do something to him.

He quietly accepted the passionate kiss.

"Mmm... Mmm~"

"Say you love me."

"No……"

"explain!"

"I...love you...my foot!"

"Hmm? Xiao Ye, you've gone astray. If you don't say those three words again..."

"No! Ling Jingxuan, you bastard!"

"So, are you going to tell me or not?"

"snort!"

...

The night was hazy, stirring my heartstrings.

A huge, red bird flew in the night sky, successfully attracting the attention of the two men.

"Such a big bird! It must be something extraordinary! Let's go take a look."

"Hmm, I think this bird might be a spirit beast. If we get it, it will be much more convenient for us to go out with it carrying us around."

Two men flew on swords, chasing after the large bird.

They discovered that no matter how fast they sped up, they couldn't keep up with the big bird.

"Too fast! We can't catch up."

"What's going on? We can't catch up even at this speed. This big bird is incredibly fast; it must be a spirit beast."

"What can we do? We can't catch up with them, we've reached our limit."

"Damn it! It got away."

The two men each said a few words, and when they looked up, the big bird had already flown very far away.

The mountain was shrouded in mist all year round, and under the cover of night, the large bird disappeared from their sight.

A large red bird landed on a grassy field, stirring up countless leaves. In the instant the bird flew up, it transformed into a man.

“Those people have made a mess of Shenxian Mountain; it’s time to clean it up.”

Under the moonlight, Wu Tian's handsome face displayed only a cold expression.

A few minutes earlier, he had also seen Ling Jingxuan's cave emitting golden light, so he came over specifically to take a look.

They discovered two cultivators searching outside, and realized they were looking for someone.

So he deliberately revealed his true form to lure them away from the scene.

As a spirit beast bird, its greatest abilities are breathing fire and flying.

The fire is the true fire of Samadhi, and the flight is the ability to fly thousands of miles with a single flap of the wings.

Even human rockets can't catch him.

Not to mention those two cultivators at the Nascent Soul stage.

Wu Tian turned back to his cave dwelling and did not go to find Ling Jingxuan and Xiao Ye, presumably because they were safe now.

Moreover, judging from their subtle interactions, they are not ordinary brothers or partners.

He shouldn't bother them.

——

Lu Guochang invited some relatives and friends to dinner tonight because he won the election for village chief.

The Lu family was naturally on the list of invitees.

That night, Lu Guochang's house was bustling with activity, filled with laughter and joy.

These past two days, Anwan has been eating dinner early, quickly taking a shower, changing into her nightgown, and then climbing into bed to sleep.

But Lu Zhili clung to her again tonight, wanting to sleep with her.

But she needed to go into the room with Lu Jiayan to cultivate, and they couldn't be disturbed by the outside world during the process.

She had to give him a large cup of spiritual spring water to coax him into going to Lu Sen's bedroom to rest.

When she arrived at Lu Jiayan's room, he was already lying in bed, almost asleep.

Hearing the door open, he opened his eyes, his dark pupils shining brightly under the yellow light, as dazzling as stars.

"How about dealing with your fifth brother?"

"Okay." An Wan's voice sounded a bit tired. "Brother Jiayan, you're tired, you can sleep for a while."

"It's nothing, I just took a nap and I feel great now." I've already taken the Marrow Cleansing Pill, and my body is twice as strong as before.

"Is it alright to give him so much spiritual spring water these past two days?" Lu Jiayan was worried that his fifth brother's body couldn't handle the powerful energy of the spiritual spring water. After all, he had drunk it himself and knew how powerful it was.

An Wan shook her head and smiled, "Fifth Brother's health has always been very good. The greatest effect of the spiritual spring water is to cure all diseases. Its effects are concentrated on his damaged brain nerves. I believe that after a while, Fifth Brother's IQ will return to normal, and he will be a normal person again."

"Yes, he took math and Chinese tests for sixth graders these past two days, and his answers were all correct."

"It seems his IQ has returned to normal. It would be great if he could go to middle school with his sixth brother at the end of August. I wonder if the school will give him a place."

Lu Jiayan, as Lu Zhili's fourth brother, is three years younger than him, but as the older brother, he is naturally more mature, thoughtful, and loves to worry about his younger brother.

Now I'm worried that the middle school in the county won't give my fifth brother a place in the first year of junior high.

Instead, they want him to go back to elementary school to study in the fifth or sixth grade, and only if he passes the high school entrance exam next year can he enter junior high school.

"Don't worry! Fifth Brother is very smart. At worst, when we go to register at the end of next month, we can ask the junior high school teachers to give us some test questions, or give him a first-year junior high school test paper to do."

"I have a lot of confidence in Fifth Brother. On the day of registration, his performance will definitely amaze everyone and completely shed the title and image of a fool. Just you wait and see!"

An Wan smiled confidently, feeling happy just thinking about that day.

As long as his IQ returns to normal, all my efforts and sacrifices during this period will have paid off.

When that time comes, let Fifth Brother also have his spiritual root tested. If his spiritual root is good, let him cultivate immortality as well.

However, it depends on whether he is willing and whether he likes it.

Not everyone enjoys cultivating immortality, nor can they endure the loneliness, solitude, and struggles of the path of cultivation.

In addition, the constant study and cultivation of the Dao is also very arduous.

An Wan climbed onto the bed and lay down next to Lu Jiayan.

"Brother Jiayan, we're going in."

"Hmm." He reached out and turned off the room light, plunging the room into darkness.

The two closed their eyes and held their breath.

The next second, I entered the Spirit Spring Space.

The Lingquan Space, filled with birdsong and fragrant flowers, was like a paradise, making Lu Jiayan feel incredibly comfortable.

Upon entering the bamboo house, An Wan learned that Guai Guai and Wu Tian were cultivating in the next room.

She pulled Lu Jiayan to her room, sensing a hint of nervousness in him, and grinned.

"Brother Jiayan, relax. The Qi Refining stage is easy. You're so smart, you'll definitely pass it."

"Hmm." After tonight, once he enters the Qi Refining stage, he will be a cultivator.
