Chapter 258 - 125: Zhou, how about finding a place to let off some steam? (6k)_2

After a moment of silence, he asked, "When are you leaving?"

"Tonight!" Luo Lingling replied decisively.

After she said this, the three of them fell silent.

Mo Xingjian suddenly stood up and left.

Seeing this, Luo Lingling merely smiled faintly and poured Zhou Qing a cup of wine, saying, "Don’t mind him. Aren’t you going to give your senior sister a farewell toast?"

Zhou Qing, full of reluctance, had no choice but to pick up his wine cup and said, "Wishing senior sister a safe journey!"

"Thank you, my little Xiao Qing. Senior sister also wishes you successful cultivation. You joined our sect the latest, yet you have already caught up with your third senior brother. Maybe you’ll catch up with me next. If I don’t pick up my pace, I won’t be able to protect you later!"

Luo Lingling said, her face full of smiles, with eyes revealing her expectations and affection for Zhou Qing.

Zhou Qing responded earnestly, "Then let me protect you all!"

"Alright, I will remember those words, come, have some food!" Luo Lingling said with a smile, then took out her Identity Token and sent a message to Yan Xiaohu.

"This Sanhu guy, always clinging to an old hen every day. I don’t even know what he’s busy with. I’m about to leave, and he still isn’t showing up!"

Luo Lingling complained while sending the message.

Not long after, Yan Xiaohu came rushing in, his face full of disbelief, staring dazedly at Luo Lingling.

"What are you standing there for? Sit down, who knows when we’ll meet again?" Luo Lingling hurriedly said.

Yan Xiaohu’s eyes reddened as he silently sat down.

"Look at you two, it’s not like we’re parting forever, cheer up a bit. While senior sister isn’t here, you two must take care of each other, especially Sanhu. Things like what happened to Xiao Qing before mustn’t happen again."

Luo Lingling advised with concern.

Yan Xiaohu just kept his head down and ate quietly. Then he took out the precious Ten Thousand Year Blood Ginseng and handed it to Luo Lingling.

"I don’t need this in the sect, senior sister, you keep it just in case!" Yan Xiaohu said in a muffled voice.

Luo Lingling was clearly taken aback upon seeing the Blood Ginseng. Just as she was about to speak, Yan Xiaohu quickly said, "It can save a life!"

Watching the stubborn look on Yan Xiaohu’s face, Luo Lingling suddenly laughed, then reached out and lightly patted his head, saying, "Alright, senior sister will accept it."

Zhou Qing didn’t expect that third senior brother would be so generous this time. He quickly looked to his Storage Bag, wondering if there was anything good to give to senior sister.

Unfortunately, except for Tetanus, there didn’t seem to be anything else.

Senior sister had her own weapon, and this Broken Sword clearly wasn’t suitable for her.

"Senior sister, I have an old hen..." Zhou Qing hesitated for a moment but still spoke.

"The hen has to stay, I need to take care of it. Besides, bringing an old hen might even bring danger to senior sister!" Yan Xiaohu quickly interrupted just as Zhou Qing started to speak.

This left Zhou Qing speechless. You can give away the valuable Blood Ginseng but not an old hen?

And it’s my hen.

But thinking about it, third senior brother seemed to make sense, it indeed wasn’t appropriate.

Seeing this, Luo Lingling laughed and waved her hand, saying, "Alright, no more sentimental stuff. Let’s eat and drink!"

"To senior sister!" Zhou Qing and Yan Xiaohu said in unison.

"Wishing all of us good fortune and safety!" Luo Lingling smiled and then raised her cup and drank it all in one go.

...

That night, Luo Lingling quietly left, and she secretly returned Yan Xiaohu’s Blood Ginseng.

Mo Xingjian stood alone on the mountaintop, his gaze tightly following that slender figure as it gradually disappeared into the distance, his expression complex and full of reluctance.

The White Crane hurriedly packed up the tent and followed them, keeping a distance.

"Next time they meet, they will have reached Divinity Transformation. Have you thought about your own Realm, Fourth Brother?"

The moonlight was like water, gently spilling onto the earth. Yan Xiaohu slowly turned his head, his gaze falling on Zhou Qing, and asked softly.

Zhou Qing shook his head, his expression calm, "I haven’t given it much thought. It’s not something you can force. Everything has to go with the flow."

"Yes, go with the flow..." Yan Xiaohu slightly raised his head, looking at the figure that had gradually faded into the night, murmuring, with eyes full of melancholy and loneliness.

...

In the room, Zhou Qing sat cross-legged peacefully, quietly immersed in cultivation under the moonlight spilling in through the skylight.

The first stage of Nascent Soul enhancement is most effective when cultivating under the moonlight.

Over time, Zhou Qing was surprised to find that cultivating for one night under the moonlight was equivalent to two to three nights of regular cultivation, bringing him great joy.

In the days that followed, Zhou Qing first successfully completed the "Flame Sun Dominating Body Skills," and then began to fully delve into the third move of the "Thunder Sword Skills."

This final move is a masterful integration of the first two moves, its power immense. However, it also became more complex and difficult to grasp, requiring a lot of mental effort to study and master.

Time flew by, and half a year had passed in the blink of an eye.
