Li Shiyin's formation of the elixir was a major event for Danfeng, and Danfeng was in jubilation for the entire afternoon until the moon rose, when the excitement slowly dissipated.
All the people who came to congratulate him on his achievement of Dan were cultivators, so naturally they had to compete with each other. One wanted to compete with another, and another wanted to learn sword techniques. Li Shiyin accepted all the people who came, and fought with everyone. Even the half-year-old baby fought with her with sword energy.
Of course, there is no such thing as winning or losing in a competition. However, after all, they have fought each other, so they all know their strengths and weaknesses.
For Li Shiyin at this time, the strength of most of the Daojian Sect's cultivators was already a visible value. Even if there were stronger ones than her, she knew roughly when they would catch up.
But only Lu Junxing still made her feel unfathomable.
“Senior Brother Lu is so amazing.” Li Shiyin lay on her back on the roof of the cabin, her head resting on Qin Ran’s thighs, looking at the starry sky and sighing.
"The stronger Lu Junxing is, the greater the benefit to you." Qin Ran put one hand on her and the other hand grabbed her soft hair and twisted it. "If you have a goal in front of you, you will never lack motivation to move forward. The most frightening thing is that there is no one stronger than you in this Sword Gate and this Immortal Relics Land. This is the terrifying thing."
"There's none in the Immortal Relics Land, but there are some in other places!" Li Shiyin said with a smile, "The Immortal Relics Land is just a remote little place in Lingnan Region. Maybe Senior Brother Lu and I are very powerful here, but when we go out, we are actually very weak?"
"Somewhere else?" Qin Ran looked up into the darkness, sighed, and said, "Do you still remember Su Changqing and Bai Ruoxi? They are the genius disciples of Lingnan Immortal Sect. In this world, based on their strength, they are the strongest level."
"Remember, Bai Ruoxi taught me the Feixian Dao and the Battle Spirit Technique! How could I forget?" Li Shiyin recalled the pair of amazing brothers and sisters who had a profound influence on her in the early stages of her cultivation. She thought she would never forget them in her life. "I am now about as good as Bai Ruoxi, or maybe a little better. I am still a long way from Su Changqing. Ah! Isn't Senior Brother Lu as good as Su Changqing?"
She reacted and was quite shocked.
"Lu Junxing is a typical example of being constrained by resources." Qin Ran said, "If he also used the Taoist scriptures as his foundation, then he would indeed be as powerful as Su Changqing."
Who is Su Changqing? He can comprehend sword energy and sword intent without practicing swordsmanship. He can deal with the Devouring Demon Willow that is about to merge with the Dao with his Golden Core cultivation, and can even stop the Devouring Demon Willow from ravaging the catkins.
"Master..." Li Shiyin grabbed the master's hands on her body with both hands, held them in her arms and counted the master's fingers. She asked softly, "Are you worried that I will leave Daojianmen and the Immortal Relics Land and go to the outside world?"
She felt it from her master's expression and tone.
When Li Shiyin hadn't yet formed a golden elixir, even though she could deal with Nascent Soul, she knew that there was still some gap between her and her master; but now that she has formed a golden elixir, she is in the early stage of golden elixir, and her master is also in the early stage of golden elixir, so it is hard to say who is stronger and who is weaker between them.
Before, the master could completely control her. If she dared to go west, the master would be...very angry. When Su Changqing gave him the "Xianling Note", he gave it directly to Huang Feiyu without asking her. But now, she herself feels that she is a little out of the control of the master. Although, she has always been disobedient.
"Ah!" Qin Ran sighed again, and ran his hands through Li Shiyin's soft hair, feeling her hair falling from his palms, and then gently stroked her smooth face, feeling the warmth on her face. He gently kneaded her face.
In fact, he had thought about this problem since he first accepted this extremely talented disciple. But at first, he just thought, if she wants to leave, let her go, she is just a disciple. The sooner she leaves, the sooner he can have peace. But who could have thought that this silly disciple would fall in love with him?
I'll fall in love with someone like him.
He couldn't bear to do it.
"You know that Master is afraid of this world... Master is afraid of death. Master dare not leave this familiar, safe and comfortable zone. Before you came, Master never thought of leaving Daojianmen, or even Danfeng." He murmured, his eyes hazy.
"But in fact, I have thought it through a long time ago. When you come to a new world, you always need a home. Before you came into being, Danfeng was my home; after you came into being, wherever you are is my home.
"We still have a long future ahead of us. I know you will not be restricted to the Immortal Relics Land. You will definitely go out. You don't have to delay yourself because of me and force yourself to stay in the Immortal Relics Land. Master will not be a burden to you..."
Hearing this, Li Shiyin panicked. She sat up hastily, held Qin Ran's hand and asked Qin Ran: "Master, are you going to drive me away? Don't you want me anymore?!"
Qin Ran shook his head, leaned his head over, put his forehead on Li Shiyin's forehead, and said softly: "Silly disciple, how can I bear to leave you?
"I mean, in the future, when the Daojianmen matter is over, we can go out together. How can you do without me if you are so stupid? A fool like you will not survive more than three episodes in the outside world."
“Hehe!” Li Shiyin finally relaxed. She bumped her forehead against Qin Ran’s and kissed him on the mouth. Then she lay down in Qin Ran’s arms again. “Master, I understand. From now on, I will protect you with my sword and you will protect me with your head. We are the most suitable team in the world.”
"Master, Master..." She had some strange thoughts in her head, "We need to have a nice title when we travel the world. I heard that those people in Northern Chu have many impressive nicknames, such as Bloody Hand Man-Slayer, Dugu Qiubai, Xiao Li Feidao, and Northern Chu Sword God. We also need a domineering and loud title.
"Master, how about we call ourselves the Male and Female Devils? Once others hear us, they will know that we are a man and a woman, a couple, and it's pretty scary."
Qin Ran shook his head and said, "It sounds terrible. It's better to call it The Return of the Condor Heroes."
"Do we have any sculptures?" Li Shiyin asked.
"We have Zhuifeng..." Qin Ran pondered, "Why not call him Xuanhu Xialu."
"Should we take Zhuifeng with us when we go out to play?" Li Shiyin asked, and then quickly lowered her voice, "I mean, if we don't take Qiqi and Liu Xiaoji, will we still have Youyou?"
"Zhuifeng is good-looking, so he can help us look good." Qin Ran said seriously, "Zhuifeng is also very powerful. If someone robs us, let Zhuifeng deal with it. How can we just do it so easily?"
"But Zhuifeng eats a lot." Li Shiyin questioned again.
Qin Ran hesitated: "It seems so..."
"And more..." Li Shiyin suppressed her laughter and raised another question, "Master, you are a big bad guy, how dare you say you are a hero?"
"I'm the big bad guy, and you're the little bad guy!" The big bad guy Qin Ran pinched the little bad guy Li Shiyin's nose and said nonsense with a serious face, "And you don't understand, my name is Chaos Justice. Although I'm insidious and cunning, I've killed countless people, I'm guilty of heinous crimes, and my crimes are unforgivable, but I'm actually a good person. I yearn for justice in my heart. People like me can also call me a dark hero."
"Master, you are talking nonsense again..."
"Gotham Guardian, okay?"
"no!"
The two of them whispered to each other on the roof until late at night, and even when the moon rose from the east and climbed above their heads, they did not separate.
There was a strange feeling in the air, a strange atmosphere between them, they were waiting for something...
Li Shiyin has achieved Dan, and has completely embarked on the path of cultivation. She no longer has to worry about her cultivation being leaked due to any evil.
And she clearly remembered that her master had said that after she formed the elixir...
“Master…” After all, the loved one is fearless, and it was Li Shiyin who spoke first. She sat in Qin Ran’s arms, hugged Qin Ran’s waist, buried her little face in Qin Ran’s neck, and whispered in a voice quieter than a mosquito, “You said…you said…wait for me to form a pill…I have already formed a pill now.”
As soon as these words came out, Qin Ran's heart began to surge. However, he was still concerned that his soul and body were not 100% integrated, so he still felt uneasy.
He thought for a moment and said, "You just formed your elixir today, and your cultivation is not stable yet. Let's talk about it after you stabilize your cultivation."
Let's push it a little further! Maybe after practicing the "Turbulent Waves Visualization Method", the soul and body will be completely integrated.
Li Shiyin paused after hearing this, and then said, "I have a solid foundation and have been in seclusion for three months. Even though I have just formed my golden elixir, it is not unstable at all. And you also saw me slash the lightning tribulation with my sword today, Master."
“So your cultivation is so solid.” Qin Ran sighed, as if he had just realized it. He continued to make excuses, “Although we are both cultivators, our parents are still alive. We should meet our parents, match our horoscopes, choose an auspicious day, and pay homage to the heavens and the earth before we can enter the bridal chamber.”
Li Shiyin couldn't bear it anymore. She raised her little head from Qin Ran's shoulder. She still hugged Qin Ran's waist, stared at Qin Ran's face with her starry eyes, and said in a cold voice:
"Master, you have met my parents and brother. They have no problem with you and even hope that we can get married soon. I told you a few years ago that I wanted to meet your parents, not once or twice, but you always refused. As for the horoscope, auspicious days, heaven and earth, can they defeat the sword in my hand? Master, you are a Jindan cultivator, and so am I. You said that cultivation is against entropy and against heaven. Do you respect heaven and earth?"
Qin Ran was so shocked by what he said that he didn't dare to look into Li Shiyin's eyes.
"Even if you are a cultivator, you should report to the sect and inform your relatives and friends." His voice was no longer confident. Li Shiyin stopped answering. Her eyes were colder than the moonlight, and there was already a sword in her eyes. She lost her patience and asked directly: "Master, are you not capable?"
Qin Ran raised his head quickly. How dare this silly boy ask such a question? !
"Why not? Why can't I do it?!" When it comes to this kind of thing, any man will panic.
"Then I hinted in every possible way, but you, as smart as you are, turned a blind eye. I threw myself into my arms shamelessly many times, but you always made up excuses! What is it that you are not capable of?" Li Shiyin asked in a loud voice, "I don't mind if you are not capable of it, I like you. But you have to tell me, it's no big deal. Besides, there are many magical skills in the world of cultivation, we can just go find a skill and reshape our bodies. As long as you explain it to me clearly, it will be fine!"
"Shh... keep your voice down!" Qin Ran put his hand over Li Shiyin's mouth and said repeatedly, "Okay, okay, I can do it. I'm in good health."
"Okay!" Li Shiyin grabbed Qin Ran's hand and continued to ask, "You can do it, but you just won't consummate the marriage with me. Do you dislike me? Do you dislike me?"
Qin Ran looked at Li Shiyin and sighed, "Can't you feel whether I like you or not?"
"Master, you are too cunning. You could have lied to me." Li Shiyin said. She grabbed Qin Ran's hand and pressed it on her bulging left chest. "Listen to my heart, and you will know what love means!"
She put her other hand on Qin Ran’s chest… She thought she would hear a calm heartbeat, but she heard a heartbeat like a war drum, as noisy as a battlefield.
She looked up into Qin Ran's eyes and saw that he was looking at her affectionately. He said softly, "Our heartbeats are the same. I love you as much as you love me."
She couldn't help but loosen her hands.
"If you believe me, we can wait a little longer. Sex is a part of love... a very important part, but not all." Qin Ran took the opportunity to say, "We are just one step away."
Li Shiyin's excited heart slowly calmed down. She thought, maybe the master really had some unspeakable secret?
She took a deep breath and stood up from Qin Ran's arms.
In the moonlight, she stood with her back to Qin Ran and looked forward. She saw a stone sculpture of Qin Ran's image beside the cabin in the moonlight. It was the cat scratching board she carved for Zhuifeng five years ago.
Then her memory began to churn, quickly going through the past five years from the moment she met her master.
Her heart began to boil again.
"You know, Master, I am a normal man. There is no normal man who doesn't want to sleep with the woman he loves..." Qin Ran was still looking for excuses.
"Qin Ran." Li Shiyin called out in a flat voice.
Kieran stopped instantly.
"I was only sixteen years old that year. I came to my brother's Tiance Army base to escape from my marriage. I heard that Daojianmen was recruiting new members, so I sneaked to Daojianmen. After going through many selections, I finally stood in Daojianmen's Hall of Enlightenment. I became your disciple." Li Shiyin raised her head and looked at the blue sky.
Qin Ran also looked up, looking at Li Shiyin's cool and graceful back in the moonlight. He didn't know what she wanted to say.
"I was sixteen that year, and I'm twenty-two this year." There was no deep meaning in Li Shiyin's words, just a few simple words, "I've liked you for five years."
She turned around and looked down at Qin Ran who was sitting on the roof. Her shadow blocked the moonlight, and Qin Ran was completely in her shadow. "Girls in Northern Chu can get married at the age of thirteen, and they are considered old maids at the age of eighteen. If we had gotten married five years ago, our children would have been able to run around the mountains following my legs..."
Qin Ran inexplicably felt that the woman in front of him was somewhat strange and scary. He said weakly, "Sixteen to twenty-two years old is the best time of a woman's youth. There is no need to waste it on having children..."
“I spent my best years of youth loving you!” Li Shiyin suddenly leaned over, grabbed Qin Ran’s collar, and said coldly, “So I don’t want to wait any longer!!”
"What are you doing?!" Qin Ran was shocked, "Stop! I'm your master!!"
"Master?" Li Shiyin sneered disdainfully. She exerted force on her hands and threw Qin Ran away. She walked forward and stretched out her hands. Qin Ran fell into her arms, lying horizontally. "Is this the first day you met me? Don't you know that I have always been lawless and never respected my teacher?
"Today you can do it or not! It's not up to you!!"
"Li Shiyin! You are outrageous!" Qin Ran yelled and scolded Li Shiyin in her arms, but there was no deterrent effect at all.
“Qin Ran!!!” Li Shiyin responded even louder, which was obviously more intimidating. “I just want to go against the will of heaven!”
As she spoke, she picked up Qin Ran and jumped off the roof. Under the bright moonlight, their shadows turned and moved into Qin Ran's room.
