The late autumn night was already a bit chilly. Wang Hao looked at his phone, which was out of battery, and had no choice but to walk back. Fortunately, the distance wasn't too far, so he treated it as a stroll.
But when he got to the door of the rented house, he realized that he hadn't brought his key. He had left in such a hurry that he had taken the house key but not the rented house key.
Helpless, he could only walk back to his home, luckily he had a spare key.
"Old neighborhoods are just no good; the hallway lights are broken and nobody fixes them," Wang Hao muttered as he fumbled for his keys in the pitch black.
But just then, he suddenly felt a breeze coming from behind him. This feeling sent chills down his spine, and the hairs on his body stood on end. A terrifying feeling instantly overwhelmed him!
"Whoosh!"
Wang Hao suddenly turned around, his right hand glowing with light, and he unleashed tremendous speed as he slapped behind him.
The speed and force were so great that they created a crackling sound as the air was torn apart. The figure stood there, stunned, without dodging or flinching.
Just as his palm was about to strike the figure, Wang Hao's expression changed, and he forcibly changed the direction of his right palm.
"boom!"
With a loud bang, a palm print, three inches deep, was slammed into the dilapidated wall, demonstrating just how terrifying Wang Hao's full-force attack was.
"Qiqi, what are you doing here?!" Wang Hao exclaimed, and at that moment the motion-activated lights in the hallway turned on.
As the lights came on, Wang Hao looked at Shi Mengqi, who was wearing a long dress, and noticed that her eyes were red and swollen, indicating that she had just been crying, and her hair was also very messy.
She looked pitiful, her light blue dress was a little dusty, and she was only wearing two slippers on her jade feet.
"What happened to you?!" Wang Hao was anxious, thinking she had been attacked.
Looking at Wang Hao, who was gazing at her with concern, Shi Mengqi felt her pent-up grievances erupt once more. Large tears streamed down her cheeks as she threw herself into Wang Hao's arms and burst into tears.
"It's alright, it's alright. With me here, no one can hurt you." Wang Hao hugged Shi Mengqi tightly, feeling extremely heartbroken. At this moment, the red figure gradually merged with the beauty in his arms.
......
A moment later, Wang Hao poured Shi Mengqi a cup of hot water as she gradually calmed down. Looking at the beauty in front of him, he sighed silently.
Unexpectedly, Shi Mengqi, who has always been a well-behaved girl, would fall out with her family for her sake, and even run away from home, saying that she was severing ties.
"Qiqi, I think Auntie should..."
Before Wang Hao could finish speaking, Shi Mengqi shook her head and said softly, "You don't need to say anything. I'm an adult now and I have my own thoughts. You just need to tell me."
"Will you take me in or not? If you won't, I'll find somewhere else to live. At worst, I'll sleep on the streets, but I'll never go back!"
Seeing this, Wang Hao reached out and wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, and solemnly said, "Don't worry, from now on, as long as I have a bite to eat, you will have two bites to eat. You will never go hungry."
"Hmph, you're making it sound like I have a huge appetite." Shi Mengqi pouted, glanced at Wang Hao, and felt much better. It was only then that she realized that Wang Hao's parents were not home.
Wang Hao glanced at his phone, which had just been plugged in to charge, and then said helplessly, "Goodness, no wonder they were in such a hurry to send me away; it turns out they went on vacation by themselves."
"Did your uncle and aunt go on a trip?" Shi Mengqi asked curiously.
Wang Hao nodded, then told him that he had been "kicked out" and had rented a house not far away.
"Come on, there are no more toiletries for me here. Come home with me, and I'll buy you some daily necessities on the way, and then treat you to a nice meal."
Watching Wang Hao's retreating figure, Shi Mengqi muttered, "Who wants to go home with you..."
However, he caught up with Wang Hao the next second, put on a pair of Wang Hao's shoes, and the two went downstairs together.
......
After they finished eating and bought the necessities, it was already close to midnight. Fortunately, Wang Hao's parents had rented a two-bedroom apartment for him, otherwise they would have had to share a bed tonight.
"Um, do you have any clothes I can wear? My dress is a bit dirty..." Shi Mengqi's voice trailed off, her face flushed red, she was very shy.
She had never shared a room with a boy before, not even her childhood friend, and she was still incredibly nervous.
Looking at the shy Shi Mengqi, Wang Hao felt a surge of desire, but without thinking much, he quickly found two loose-fitting clothes and handed them to her.
"I'm going to take a shower, you...you shouldn't peep." Shi Mengqi's voice was softer than a mosquito's buzz; if Wang Hao hadn't awakened his physical body, he wouldn't have been able to hear what she was saying at all.
Listening to the sound of running water in the bathroom, Wang Hao was a little distracted, but as a cultivator, he still had some self-control. He first recited a calming mantra.
After waiting a while, when his mind was free of distractions, he took out the golden jade stone and began to absorb the spiritual energy inside, gradually entering a meditative state.
As the spiritual energy within the jade dissipates, its luster begins to dim, losing its spiritual essence. When all the spiritual energy within is absorbed, it will turn into a pile of powder and vanish into the world.
The characteristic of the spiritual awakening state is the awakening of the physical body, which makes the body full of spirituality, achieves a state of unity of body and mind, and gathers spiritual energy in the dantian.
When spiritual energy begins to transform from gas to liquid, one can successfully advance to the Qi Refining Realm.
The Qi Refining Realm is also divided into four stages. Moreover, when you have just completed the advancement, you can use your spiritual power to cleanse your body and remove impurities and filth.
Only by completing this stage can one truly stabilize their cultivation at the Qi Refining Realm, become a qualified cultivator, and be able to cultivate spiritual consciousness.
Given Wang Hao's current situation, only by reaching the Qi Refining Realm and cultivating spiritual consciousness can all his problems be solved.
After completing the marrow cleansing and purification process, his martial arts cultivation will be able to break through, allowing him to continue practicing martial arts.
Once he gained spiritual awareness, he was able to look inward at himself and see what was in his dantian, why it could emit spiritual energy on its own, and how it emitted it intermittently.
At the same time, you can open that silver storage ring to see what's inside. It would be best if you could find some spiritual herbs and medicines.
That way, Wang Hao could refine pills himself, rapidly improve his cultivation, and decipher the incomprehensible talismans even he couldn't understand.
It can be said that when Wang Hao's cultivation reaches the Qi Refining Realm, all problems can be easily solved.
"Um...are you cultivating? Could you find me a hairdryer? I want to dry my hair..."
Upon hearing Shi Mengqi's voice, Wang Hao immediately ended his cultivation, but as soon as he opened his eyes and saw the scene before him, he almost coughed up blood from his nose.
At this moment, Shi Mengqi was wearing a loose white t-shirt that barely covered her fair thighs, and her wet long hair was casually scattered down her back.
Her crystal-clear skin, long eyelashes, rosy lips, slender neck, and voluptuous breasts and hips, combined with her appearance just after a bath, were truly a shock to Wang Hao's mind.
