I see someone has thrown a black mood, and I'm weakly saying, can't you take advantage of the time when throwing black to say something about what's not good about this article, so I can improve it...

  ++++++++++++++++++++++

  After seeing Wang Jie off, Lin Luo Ran unexpectedly calmed down.

  Thinking of Li Anping's sneaky entry and Li Anping and his family members causing trouble at her home, as well as Ai Li's "kill order", now it's not that Ai Li won't let go of the issue, but rather Lin Luoran doesn't want to easily let them off!

  However, how to avenge still needs careful planning. Although things are different now, Lin Luoran only has a strong physique, apart from her exceptional abilities in spiritual energy exploration, inner vision, and super speed, she is still an ordinary person. She hasn't learned any of the extraordinary skills that cultivators possess.

  What's most important now is to improve your own strength!

  Lin Luoran had this idea in mind, and the following days were much more fulfilling. During the day, she still went to work, using her spiritual energy to detect all the jade products in Zhen Bao Xuan, and the pearls seemed to be like mice that had rolled into a rice warehouse, absorbing spiritual energy happily every day.

  Lin Luoran also understood that the heavenly spiritual energy hidden in the jade seemed to be extremely violent for some reason. It's said that jade nurtures people, but with such chaotic spiritual energy stored in these high-end jades, it would be good if they didn't harm people's bodies, let alone prolong their lives!

  Reality and the common sense in her mind conflicted, but Lin Luoran was more willing to believe the bead that brought her strange encounters. The bead didn't discriminate against this chaotic spiritual energy; Lin Luoran thought about how last time she detected the jade material bought by Cui Huanzi, the bead had converted out a very peaceful and stable spiritual energy. Thinking of this, the bead seemed to have some kind of spiritual energy conversion function.

  The emerald jade stone that had absorbed the disordered spiritual energy of the pearl did not have any problems with its luster decreasing or its quality dropping. Without the disordered spiritual energy, it was harmless to humans, and at least it wouldn't harm people's bodies. Lin Luoran felt relieved and let the pearl absorb the spiritual energy as it pleased.

  As for the reversal of spiritual energy? Lin Luo'er's face turned red, now she felt that her spiritual energy was not enough to use, how could she bear to let Zhu Zi treat her like a piece of jade material and reverse the converted spiritual energy back out?

  The vegetables and herbs in the space grew even better, and after half a month, when Lin Luo Ran tried to manipulate the spiritual energy in his meridians again at night, he found that there was actually a slow flow of signs!

  Although it was just a slight movement and required a great deal of effort from Lin Luo Ran, after each attempt he would be exhausted, drenched in sweat, and unable to get out of bed, Lin Luo Ran was still extremely delighted.

  It's good to be tired, being tired means it's effective! You know, Lin Luoran hasn't sweated much or felt tired since her body was altered.

  All of this was thanks to Lin Luoran's bold attempt and the mysterious power of the pearl - Lin Luoran had seen the pearl reverse the jade material, and after thinking about it for a long time, she felt that the pearl should also be able to nourish her own spiritual energy. As soon as this thought occurred to her, the speed at which the pearl absorbed the spiritual energy of the jade stone was frantic, causing Lin Luoran to sneak around other counters every day, just to get closer to the jade stone and make it easier for the pearl to absorb.

  At night, Lin Luoran had an epiphany, and the pearl indeed spat out some processed spiritual energy, which slowly seeped into Lin Luoran's body. With her internal spiritual energy originally only being a thin thread, after half a month of passive absorption, it finally condensed into a line under Lin Luoran's urging, moving slowly along the meridians in her body.

  Now the cultivation progress is slow, and the main reason is that Lin Luoran has been passively absorbing the spiritual energy brought by the beads, but when it comes to actively absorbing spirits, Lin Luoran is at a loss for a while.

  She has a pearl, an object that defies heaven, but doesn't even have a set of low-level cultivation techniques, it's really frustrating!

  The room was filled with all sorts of medicinal herbs, and vegetables were being delivered in batches, piled up on the grass mat like a small mountain. This was still Lin Luoran sending some back to her family, and Baojia's place wasn't lacking either; sometimes they even sent some to Wang Jie's house and still had leftovers!

  None of these were missing, and the only possible place where a cultivation method could be hidden, a small wooden hut, was still sealed off with restrictive spells, preventing Lin Luo Ran from taking even one step inside.

  Heaven, the ban on who knows when it will be lifted, or maybe it will always be there. To put all hope in this is too unreliable. Although he had set foot on the path of cultivation, Lin Luo Ran knew that he was still just a rookie. If his realm never broke through, with such a slow speed of cultivation, even after a hundred years, he would only be a pile of red dust and dry bones.

  The existence of the pearl made Lin Luo suddenly think that in this world, there shouldn't be only one cultivator like himself.

  Where is her "peer" again?

  When Lin Luo Ran gazed out at the perpetually misty starry sky of R City, he couldn't help but fantasize that among the people living under this same sky were countless hidden cultivators, just like in myth and legend, possessing long lifespans, dazzling magical treasures, and practicing inherited techniques that allowed them to fly through the skies and overturn mountains and seas.

  But now in front of Lin Luo Ran, apart from the predicament of cultivation, there is also the issue of the little boy's belonging that he had saved that day.

  For the past half month, Lin Luo Ran has been working during the day and after work, he would meet up with Bao Jia to visit the boy they rescued at the hospital. The good news is that after a half month of recuperation, Zheng Tai's injuries have almost healed and the hospital said he can be discharged.

  The bad news is that the police still haven't found any leads on his family, which means that after Xiaozheng leaves the hospital, he can only go to an orphanage or a welfare institution.

  It's like this, going to the orphanage was also a very natural outcome, but this child still doesn't speak until now, and has severe autism, let alone Lin Luoran couldn't bear it, even Baojia wasn't at ease.

  "Xiao Ran, why don't you adopt him?" Bao Jia actually wanted to raise him by her side, but her family situation was complicated and she definitely couldn't do as she pleased, so she could only encourage Lin Luo Ran.

  Adoption? Ah, why didn't I think of that myself? Now it's not like we can't afford to raise a child... Later, we can bring Lin Dad and Lin Mom over, the two old folks aren't used to city life, and having a kid will give them something to dote on, killing two birds with one stone.

  "Adopting an orphan isn't about being thirty years old, did I remember wrong?" In the hospital ward, Lei, the patrol officer who had rescued Xiao Zhengtao with Lin Luoran at the beginning, looked very puzzled and asked back.

  He sized up Lin Luo Ran and Bao Jia, both of whom looked like they were under thirty years old.

  Lin Luoran was originally getting more and more excited as she calculated, but now she was suddenly drenched with a basin of cold water. Ah, right, she hadn't considered this issue yet - it turned out that she and Baojia were indeed two ignorant people when it came to the law!

  Bao Jia glanced at Little Li, the police officer, thought for a moment, and suddenly smiled at Lin Luo Ran: "Right, the dishes you've been sending over these days, my grandfather also likes them very much. He's been saying he wants to meet you. Let's not wait for a good day, let's do it today!"

  Officer Xiao Li couldn't keep up with Bao Jia's train of thought, but Lin Luo Ran managed to catch a few hints, and indeed, Bao Jia blinked her eyes, as if saying that the solution to this problem was related to her grandfather...
