Dazed, Ye Qiuhan exited her Cultivation state. She shook her slightly dizzy head and scanned the room, but she didn't find her new roommate anywhere.
Where is Qian Lin? Where did she go?
Feeling a bit confused, Ye Qiuhan straightened her slightly numb legs, waiting for her legs—which had poor blood circulation from sitting for too long—to return to their normal state. Given Qian Lin's personality, she was probably in the courtyard outside right now, right?
As for whether she had been abandoned... Ye Qiuhan didn't even think about it. She had known Qian Lin for less than a day, and their relationship wasn't at the point where they would be devastated without each other.
Moreover, Qian Lin had just reminded her not to go out recently, so she shouldn't be going out now either. Since there was no sign of that white-haired girl in the room, it was obvious where she was.
The few large trunks placed by the bed showed no signs of being moved, indicating that Qian Lin had only left the room temporarily. If she were really leaving, she would definitely have to take these things with her... No, why am I thinking so much?
Ye Qiuhan tapped her own head. Wouldn't it be better to just go out to the courtyard and see?
Waiting for the numbness in her legs to gradually disappear, Ye Qiuhan put on her shoes and socks, left the bedroom with small steps, passed through the dining room and living room, and walked into the courtyard.
The Honghu Academy dorms, while called dorms, were actually more like a small house. Although the area was relatively small, it was fully equipped; it had all the rooms a normal family would need.
There was a bathroom and a toilet, and the conditions were even quite good.
The kitchen also had a Fire Element Formation powered by Spirit Stones, allowing students who needed to cook to do so in the dorm. As for ingredients, there was even less need to worry about that.
Buying ingredients in the Honghu Academy, which was the size of a small city, could only be described as easy. If one didn't have high requirements for the quality of ingredients, a single Spirit Stone could buy a whole cartload.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Walking into the courtyard, before Ye Qiuhan even saw Qian Lin, she heard a continuous sound of breaking air. From the intensity of the sound, one could judge that Qian Lin's strength was probably not small at all.
Walking a few more steps forward, Ye Qiuhan indeed saw Qian Lin punching under the shade of a tree. Perhaps for the sake of easy movement, Qian Lin still wasn't wearing that ill-fitting men's robe, but had changed into a short outfit, and her long white hair was tied into a high single ponytail.
She looked especially energetic.
She must have heard the movement nearby, as Qian Lin stopped her actions after throwing a few more punches. She turned her head to look in Ye Qiuhan's direction. "Yo, done Cultivating?"
"Yeah. Qian Lin, are you practicing boxing?" Ye Qiuhan nodded, but her gaze couldn't stop wandering over Qian Lin's exposed arms and calves.
Qian Lin's skin was so white, but it wasn't scary at all; it was like the flesh of a Spirit Fruit with its shell peeled off, very beautiful. Perhaps because of the boxing practice, there was a bit of dampness on Qian Lin's forehead, causing a few strands of her hair to stick to it, adding a touch of vitality to her.
In short, she was just very good-looking!
Qian Lin nodded. "Practicing physical techniques for a while after Cultivating can help the Spiritual Qi settle better in your body. It will also allow you to progress faster when you are in the Body Tempering Realm in the future."
As a Cultivator who relied on her own strength to climb step by step to the position of Supreme, Qian Lin couldn't say she was just half-knowledgeable about Cultivation; she could say she knew it like the back of her hand.
Laying the foundation for one's body now would yield infinite benefits in the future.
Speaking of which, her gaze swept over Ye Qiuhan, and she discovered that this Stupid Girl was really a bit stupid; she had no restraint when Cultivating, and the Spiritual Qi on her body was almost overflowing.
This wasn't a good phenomenon. If she kept Cultivating like this, her Meridians might not be able to hold up in the future.
"In the future, don't Cultivate for too long when you Cultivate. You need to leave some leeway for your body to absorb the Spiritual Qi." Qian Lin walked to Ye Qiuhan's side and raised her hand, giving the girl a hard pat on the back.
Slap!
A loud slapping sound echoed in the courtyard. Ye Qiuhan widened her eyes and looked at Qian Lin in shock. They were talking just fine, so why did she hit her?
"The Spiritual Qi on you is overflowing." Qian Lin pointed to Ye Qiuhan's side, signaling Ye Qiuhan to see for herself.
"Eh?" The green light spots surrounding her body left Ye Qiuhan in confusion. Where did this Spiritual Qi come from?
Seeing Ye Qiuhan's confused expression, Qian Lin let out a long sigh. A Stupid Girl is indeed a Stupid Girl. Suspecting that she was Ye Qiuhan must have been her being a fool; how could that Yaochi Saintess be so dim-witted?
A Genius like that must be naturally gifted and progress by leaps and bounds when Cultivating; how could she not know such basic knowledge?
"Don't try to become a fat man in one bite; too much is as bad as too little." Qian Lin shook her head, walked a few steps away, and beckoned to Ye Qiuhan. "It's a good time to exercise your body and let the Spiritual Qi in your body settle better."
"Oh, is it like what you were just doing, Qian Lin?" Ye Qiuhan scratched her head. Although she still didn't quite understand the principle, her intuition told her that what Qian Lin said wasn't wrong.
This question made Qian Lin show a thoughtful expression. After a few seconds of thinking, Qian Lin's expression gradually became eager. "You can also spar with me. The effect will be even better."
As a former Demon Path Supreme, Qian Lin naturally had no psychological burden about bullying a little girl. The Demon Path is full of heartless fellows, and Qian Lin was no exception.
My Moves are so powerful; I have to show them off for people to see and receive everyone's gasps and cheers, right? This was Qian Lin's thought.
In her past life, few would praise her technique; those who had seen her Moves were mostly dead. But in this life, she finally found a chance to show off!
Her older brother had been beaten into submission by these Moves. After being beaten once, Qian Lin's brother refused to practice with her ever again, much to her regret.
But now, she had finally found another punching bag... Ahem, no, I'm doing this for the Stupid Girl's own good. I'm helping her fully absorb the Spiritual Qi and teaching her some practical combat skills along the way!
I'm doing a truly great deed here!
Look at my sincere eyes. I, the Demon Path Supreme Qian Lin, am truly a warm-hearted, good person!
She felt like Qian Lin had suddenly become excited... Ye Qiuhan couldn't help but shiver. She didn't know why, but her intuition told her that Qian Lin was probably up to no good.
But the proposal sounded fine... Maybe I should just accept it.
