"I love my mother very much, but I also love my father, and I also..."
"Also what?" Shen Qian asked with a half-smile when he saw Ding Yi hesitate.
“…I love you.” Ding Yi finally raised her head and gazed at Shen Qian as she whispered.
Her ears were slightly red, but her eyes were bright.
What else can be done before it sinks?
Of course, it's about turning around and grabbing...
Kiss her.
About a minute later, Shen Qian wiped the glistening strand of silk from the corner of Ding Yi's mouth and coughed, "What if even Shan Hai's strength isn't enough?"
"Then let it be a king or nobleman."
Ding Yi did not hesitate at all.
He didn't say anything more before sinking.
To put it another way, if Wang Xiaojuan were inside that "door," she would do everything in her power to prevent sinking, even if it was just a sliver of hope.
At this moment, Shen Qian, who had always felt that Old Hu was a bit off, could understand the other man's feelings to some extent.
Perhaps, to him, Jiang Chengye was like a son to him.
"Do not advise others to do good if you have not experienced their suffering."
Shen Qian shook his head, too lazy to ponder Old Hu's inner world any further.
"Here, take this."
After thinking for a moment, Shen Qian took out a roll of animal hide from his storage ring and handed it to Ding Yi.
"What is this?" Ding Yi asked curiously.
"Ancient cultivation scroll... allows you to cultivate your spiritual power before the mountains and seas, but it's a bit difficult to comprehend. Give it a try, and don't force yourself if you can't do it."
He explained before sinking in.
What he gave Ding Yi was the ancient cultivation diagram that the big boss Gao had given him, which contained two scrolls: "Primordial Era" and "Primordial Chaos".
Although according to the elder Gao, one cannot cultivate without a body with ten apertures, Shen Qian felt that if the body refining technique was like that, the spirit refining technique should not have any effect.
Given Ding's family's circumstances and his current location in the Northern Martial Kingdom, he wouldn't lack elixirs. After much consideration, this was probably all he could do for the time being.
"Mental power?" Ding Yi was somewhat surprised.
"Yes, if you can understand this, you won't have to work so hard in your future cultivation. The growth of your spiritual power will also drive the rapid growth of your vital energy."
Shen shared some experiences before the event.
"Okay." Ding Yi didn't ask any further questions.
The two sat on the hillside for a while longer, until it was almost time for lights out, when Ding Yi finally stood up.
"Actually, I also have a gift for you," Ding Yi suddenly said, but for some reason, she turned her head away and did not look directly at Chen Qian.
"What?" Shen Qian was taken aback.
"Or...maybe next time." Ding Yi pursed her lips, turned around and left.
Shen Qian was initially confused, but after escorting Ding Yi back to his dormitory and seeing him disappear around the corner of the stairs, he finally realized what had happened and was filled with regret.
"...Ashiba!"
...
After spending two days in Beidu, Chen returned to the river.
Apart from the first day, everything seemed peaceful and uneventful. Neither Nie Han nor Wang Shuo appeared again, and Shen Qian was happy to enjoy the peace and quiet.
But it only appeared calm on the surface.
Because all the turmoil occurred in places that hadn't been deliberately paid attention to before the sinking.
Before the incident, it had occupied the front page of most media publications for several days, and even the online hot search was consistently in the top ten, and one day it even reached number one.
The public opinion surrounding Shen Qian was mixed, both positive and negative, stemming from one particular incident.
The official debut of the "Creation" elixir.
At the same time, the fact that Shen Qian had become the youngest academician in the history of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, the youngest senior lecturer in the history of the Northern Martial Arts Academy (and will become an associate professor next month), and the youngest seven-star alchemy master in the history of human martial arts could no longer be kept secret.
This wave of impact has stirred up a huge wave online.
Countless people marveled at Shen Qian's talent in alchemy.
Even if fellow alchemists wanted to slander Shen Qian, they would have nowhere to lay a finger on it.
Because at the same time that elixirs were invented, the third theorem of alchemy, which was regarded as the creed of all alchemists, was overturned.
From then on, alchemy was left with only six theorems.
Shen Qian, at the young age of eighteen, will forever shine in the field of alchemy.
Within the martial arts community, this incident triggered an earthquake-like reaction.
Originally, after Shen Qian passed the national martial arts championship, he became famous for a time, but for martial artists from the Mountain and Sea Sect, not many people paid attention to him.
Because the martial artists of the mountains and seas are a very special group. Their vision is far superior to that of ordinary martial artists, and they have much more experience. Moreover, they are not as "idle" as kings and nobles.
This resulted in Shen Qian's fame within the royal circle being higher than that within the Mountain and Sea circle.
But once "fate" intervenes, everything changes completely.
Whether by choice or by force, all the mountains and seas have remembered Chen Qian's name.
Perhaps, at some point, you might even find yourself entangled with him by some unseen cause and effect.
Shen Qian didn't know whether this was a good thing or not, but it shouldn't be a bad thing at least.
Aside from these positive effects, the negative comments online about the sinking were equally sharp.
Shen Qian's failure to make it onto the Hidden Dragon List had already attracted considerable attention, but after the Beidu incident, Shen Qian's apparent defeat to Wang Shuo caused an even greater uproar online.
After the "Creation" elixir was invented, everyone suddenly realized the reason for the "fall of a genius".
...So the reason why Shen Qian didn't cultivate properly was because he went to refine medicine!
Okay, now everything makes sense.
In an instant, some expressed regret, some said that Shen Qian was neglecting his duties, and some were even malicious, saying that Shen Qian was wasting his talent, putting the cart before the horse, and seeking fame and fortune...
