Chapter 54: Ripples on the Lake
Lin Yi continued on his way, having removed the beast core from the Iron Back Beast. It was now close to dusk, and the rustling of leaves beneath his feet blended with the distant bird calls and animal roars.
Lin Yi found that the deeper he went, the fewer demonic beasts there were. In the end, he couldn't even find a single ordinary wild beast, as if these creatures were afraid of something and didn't dare to approach.
Lin Yi also slowed down his pace, proceeding with caution, and with his current strength, he would be able to defend himself against any warrior below the peak of the Refining Realm.
After walking for two hundred meters, Lin Yi felt a strange aura. The spiritual energy here was extremely dense. If he wasn't mistaken, there must be a Spiritual Field nearby.
This spiritual field is obviously much stronger than those in the outer sect and can cover such a wide range, it's definitely not ordinary.
As expected, after continuing on for a while, Lin Yi's eyes suddenly lit up, and at the end of the dense forest, there was a lake!
A blue lake hidden deep in the dense forest, with white mist rising above its surface, like a fairyland.
Lin Yi was very clear that it wasn't fog, but a strange phenomenon produced by the massive accumulation of spiritual energy. And this huge lake was obviously a spiritual field, otherwise it wouldn't produce such terrifying spiritual energy.
Lin Yi's heart was filled with joy, and he was about to rush out, but suddenly he saw a white figure floating lightly from the other side of the lake. The white clothes were as clean as snow, cold and holy, untouched by dust.
Chen Shuang! It's actually her!
Lin Yi suddenly stopped in his tracks, hiding behind a cluster of trees and gazing from afar.
Seeing this woman again, Lin Yi didn't know whether he should go out to greet her or quickly escape, so he could only stand still in his original position, not moving at all.
Chen Shuang's body was extremely light and agile, transforming into a mist that rose into the air, already able to fly like a bird, and then hovered in the middle of the lake, surrounded by white misty fog, with a somewhat ethereal quality reminiscent of a White-Robed Immortal.
Black hair cascades like a waterfall, white clothes surpass snow! Lin Yi's position, although only seeing Chen Xue's back, is also an extremely beautiful picture, making one's heart feel fluttered.
Chen Shuang took a light breath, stretched her body, and obviously didn't think that in this secret place deep in the forest, someone would be sneaking a peek. Finally, her toes slowly descended, and she gradually sank into the water, her white skirt puffing out due to the buoyancy of the water's surface.
Soon, Chen Shuang's entire body had fallen into the lake water, with only her face and neck exposed above the surface. Her beautiful face was serene, her white skin glistening in the sunlight, her eyebrows slightly closed, trembling gently in the breeze.
Here is actually Chen Shuangshuang's place of cultivation!
Lin Yi finally understood that this lake was obviously a spiritual field, and Chen Shuangshuang's immersion in the lake water meant she was at the very center of the spiritual field, naturally greatly increasing her cultivation efficiency.
But this scene, indeed has some spring light, Chen Shuang's fluffy skirt, vaguely visible two snow-white small legs, hazy and delicate, like jade carving, exquisite and fine, revealing a smooth color, under the agitation of water shadows and ripples, even more like a dream, tempting to the extreme.
The white dress on her body, because it got wet and became transparent, vaguely revealed the light pink undershirt and snow-white skin inside, and in the blur, it was inevitable that people would have all sorts of fancies.
Lin Yi's mouth curled up into a smile, this extremely high-quality woman was his nominal wife, unfortunately he didn't have the chance to touch her, if he could conquer her and make her obedient, that feeling would definitely be very satisfying!
Lin Yi can only think about it now, this woman has stunning beauty, but she is also a proud and cold hedgehog. Anyone who gets close to her will probably be pierced and left with blood all over their body, or even lose their life!
Especially Lin Yi.
Taking advantage of Chen Shuang entering a meditative state, Lin Yi quickly slipped away. If he was really discovered by this woman sneaking a peek, she probably wouldn't give Lin Yi any chance to explain himself and would directly take his life with one sword!
That's what I call injustice!
Lin Yi escaped from the dense forest, the sky had already darkened, when he returned to the yard, he was so hungry that his stomach was growling, just in time to smell a fragrance, which came rushing up to his nose.
"It's definitely this girl!" The aroma of this dish, Lin Yi was more familiar with it than anyone else. Only Nangong Wan, this little kitchen god, could create such a delicious flavor that captured his heart.
"Lin Yi, brother!" Seeing Lin Yi return, Nangong Wan's anxious little face finally broke into a smile. She had changed into a new pink long dress today and was twirling around in front of Lin Yi, like a little girl hoping to be praised.
But Lin Yi's eyes were fixed on the food, and he rolled up his sleeves, devouring it in big mouthfuls.
"Hmph!" Nan Gong Wan stomped her foot in anger, "Lin Yi gege, you don't even look at my new skirt to see if it's pretty or not!"
Lin Yi chewed on his steamed bun while lifting his head to take a glance and forced out a "Good looking!"
"Hmph, how reluctant!" Nan Gong Yu was somewhat displeased, and a worried look suddenly appeared in her eyes. She said seriously, "Lin Yi brother, to be honest, I might be leaving Tian Xuan Sect soon!"
"Leave?" Lin Yi was taken aback, "Where to go?"
Nangong Wan pursed her lips, paused for a moment, and a smile appeared on her face again, with a hint of helplessness. "My dad will be looking for me soon, once he finds me, I'll definitely have to go home!"
"But I don't want to go home!" Nangong Wan hummed, somewhat resentful.
Lin Yi licked his lips, thinking that he wouldn't be able to eat such delicious food in the future, which was unacceptable. The dishes made by the sect's disciples were far inferior to those made by Nangong Yu, "Don't worry, when Dad comes, I'll help you beat him up!" Lin Yi joked.
Nangong Wan let out two soft "tsks", "Lin Yi gege, although he's very formidable, but still far from being a match for my dad! My dad is really formidable!"
"How formidable is it?" Lin Yi raised his head curiously. He had always felt that Nangong Wan's background was not ordinary.
"Hmm..." Nangong Wan leaned on her chin, thinking for a moment, her eyelashes trembling non-stop. "So, you know that old man, the one with the long white beard!"
Lin Yi smiled wryly and nodded, what Nangong Wan said was definitely about Ying Tianzhao.
"With just twenty strong warriors like Dalao, attacking my father alone, with just one move, my father can kill them all!" Nangong Wan said seriously, with a deep sense of pride, "Don't think I'm bragging, I've seen it with my own eyes!"
Sacred realm expert! Lin Yi's first reaction was that Nan Gong Yu's father must be a Sacred Realm warrior, or at least have a complete Qi Realm cultivation. Such a person is one of the few in the entire Great Ming Country!
Nangong Wan's background is indeed unusual, could it be that she is truly from one of the four major ancient families, the Nangong family?
Lin Yi thought that it was unbelievable, "If your father is so powerful, why did you end up in the Tian Xuan Sect with such poor cultivation?"
Nangong Wan clenched her small fist, "It's not that I'm not good at cultivation, it's just that I don't deign to practice martial arts. Hmph, if my father didn't force me to marry that person, I wouldn't have bothered to leave home and run to this godforsaken place to suffer!"
"Ah, I see!" Lin Yi burst out laughing and swept away the dishes, "So it's not wanting to get married, this girl! Haha, whoever marries her will definitely be cursed for eight lifetimes... no, I mean, they'll have accumulated eight lifetimes of virtue!" Seeing Nan Gong Wan's murderous gaze, Lin Yi hastily changed his words.
"Hmph! Lin Yi, that person is really detestable!" Nan Gong Wan's face showed her disgust, but her eyes revealed a hint of helplessness and sorrow, which didn't match her lively and lovely personality. "But I also know that I can only hide for so long, I won't be able to avoid it forever. Anyway, this time when I go back, I'll definitely have to marry that guy, sigh!"
Lin Yi's expression turned serious, and he coughed lightly. He found that Nangong Wan's fate was similar to his own, both were forced into a marriage arrangement, and both were helpless individuals.
The only difference is that Lin Yi plays the role of being hated!
