Chapter 226: Nourishing the Sword with Human Qi
Feeling quite pleased with himself, Lin Fengmian tossed the Zhen Yuan Sword to Jun Yunshang and laughed, “Hold this sword for me. Hug it tightly, and don’t lose it.”
Jun Yunshang caught the Zhen Yuan and held it in her arms, curious she asked, “Why doesn’t Master carry the sword himself?”
“Ordinary opponents are not worthy of me drawing my sword. When the time comes, it will come to me on its own,” Lin Fengmian replied with a smile.
“Then why not store it in your storage ring?” Jun Yunshang asked, her curiosity piqued.
Lin Fengmian spoke with a serious face, though his words were far from it, “This is called nurturing the sword with human qi. A beauty holding the sword can help to temper and nourish it. The tighter the embrace, the better!”
Jun Yunshang nodded, a bit bewildered, and then hugged the Zhen Yuan tightly to her chest, asking, “Is that so?”
Lin Fengmian nodded and said, “You’re a fast learner! Not bad, not bad at all!”
Luo Xue, who was also listening, was stunned for a moment and asked in surprise, “Is this the Demon Emperor Technique?”
Lin Fengmian laughed awkwardly and said, “Of course not. It’s just for aesthetics. A beauty holding a sword has a unique charm, doesn’t it?”
As he spoke, he couldn’t help but look at Jun Yunshang who was hugging the Zhen Yuan.
The Zhen Yuan, nestled between her soft breasts, made Jun Yunshang’s figure appear even more curvaceous.
Lin Fengmian couldn’t help but marvel at how lucky the Zhen Yuan was to be wielded by Luo Xue and now held by Jun Yunshang.
Nurturing the sword with human qi might not be certain, but when he held the sword, it would certainly be warm!
Luo Xue, sharing his field of vision, immediately understood his lecherous thoughts.
She sighed, “I don’t think you need to nurture any sword qi. You’re despicable enough as it is!”
Lin Fengmian was speechless for a moment. Soon after, Jun Yunshang reached up to put her veil back on.
Lin Fengmian, who hadn’t had his fill of the sight, quickly stopped her, “Yunshang, what are you doing?”
Jun Yunshang paused and said seriously, “This will help avoid a lot of trouble.”
“Trouble? Even if you cover your face, they’ll still come. So why bother? It’s unnecessary!” Lin Fengmian laughed.
Jun Yunshang responded with an “Oh,” and didn’t put the veil back on, following his advice. Clearly, she was in a better mood without it.
The two of them continued their swift journey, but it wasn’t long before they were pursued by assassins.
However, these pursuers clearly knew about Lin Fengmian’s prowess and didn’t dare to make any rash moves. They followed them from a distance.
Lin Fengmian, who shared the same consciousness with Luo Xue that was now at the level of the Void Realm, quickly recognized the enemies.
But killing these people wouldn’t benefit him much, so he let them follow him like pesky flies.
“Lin Fengmian, this time when you broke through, the Demon Emperor Technique didn’t give you any new techniques?”
Luo Xue was curious now. The Demon Emperor Technique was truly mysterious and unpredictable, and she wanted to know what other surprises this cultivation method might have.
Lin Fengmian recalled it, and his expression became a bit odd. After a while, he smiled and said, “Yes, there was one. But it’s a rather useless skill. Not worth mentioning.”
“Not worth mentioning? Can you elaborate?”
Luo Xue was genuinely curious, as this was the first time she had heard Lin Fengmian speak of the Demon Emperor Technique’s techniques in such a way.
Trying to avoid the subject, Lin Fengmian said, “It’s hard to describe, and I can’t really explain it. When the time comes for you to use it, you’ll see for yourself.”
Luo Xue could only nod in response, not thinking much more about it.
Lin Fengmian continued to lead Jun Yunshang at a rapid pace, but his mind was preoccupied with the peculiar skill.
Burning Love!
If he were to use this technique, Luo Xue would surely be upset, wouldn’t she?
They didn’t encounter any enemies during the day, but he knew that they were gathering strength. The next attack would probably be a powerful one.
At nightfall, Lin Fengmian and Jun Yunshang found a place to rest. Jun Yunshang took out an Array Formation and meticulously set it up around them.
Watching her methodically lay out the formation, Lin Fengmian couldn’t help but smile and said, “You have quite a few good items on you.”
“First, there’s the Feather Cloak that can hide the Divine Consciousness, then the Golden Dragon Talisman, and now these arrays. You’re swimming in riches.”
“Most of them were given to me by Father, only the Feathered Robe was left to me by Mother,” Jun Yunshang replied honestly.
“How many golden dragon talismans do you have left?” Lin Fengmian asked.
Knowing one’s own strength and the enemy’s strength will ensure victory in a hundred battles.
Jun Yunshang took out five talismans from her storage ring and said, “I have five more”.
Lin Fengmian was surprised that she still had so many of them.
Luo Xue sighed, “It seems that the Soaring Heaven Sword Saint truly adored her and was determined to protect her at all costs.”
“These golden dragon talismans, which can be activated by bloodline power and reused until their energy is exhausted, are not something even a Body Cultivation expert can easily handle.”
Seeing that Lin Fengmian remained silent, Jun Yunshang thought that he might want them and felt a bit awkward.
“Young Master Ye, these talismans can only be activated by bloodline power, so others can’t use them.”
She quickly added, fearing that he might be upset, “If Young Master wants them, I can give you everything except the feathered cloak and the talismans.”
Lin Fengmian waved his hand, “No need! Keep them for yourself. Can you make these?”
Jun Yunshang’s eyebrows furrowed slightly, “I can make them, but the ones I create won’t be as powerful, and Young Master can’t use them anyway.”
Lin Fengmian did not dismiss the idea, “Can you make one for me to see?”
Jun Yunshang complied, biting her finger to draw a new Golden Dragon Talisman on a blank piece of paper.
Lin Fengmian looked at the talisman, which was identical to the others, and suddenly smiled, “Make a hundred or so and keep them with you.”
“The next time someone tries to harm you, activate the real one and hold this hundred in your hand. See who still finds you interesting.”
Jun Yunshang was taken aback, then her eyes lit up, “Young Master, do you want them to back off?”
“Exactly, with a hundred, they won’t be interested anymore,” Lin Fengmian smiled.
Jun Yunshang nodded seriously and began to draw the golden dragon talismans.
However, after drawing five, her face started to pale.
Luo Xue quickly intervened, “She can’t go on. Drawing these golden dragon talismans consumes bloodline power, which is very draining.”
Lin Fengmian agreed and stopped her, telling her to rest and continue the next day.
In the cave, Lin Fengmian sat cross-legged, focusing on steadily enhancing his strength.
“Master Ye, are you married?” Jun Yunshang suddenly asked.
Lin Fengmian thought about Ye Xuefeng’s situation and nodded, “Why do you ask?”
Jun Yunshang shook her head, “No reason, just asking. Is your wife…?”
“Dead!” Lin Fengmian replied succinctly, not wanting to elaborate.
The real Ye Xuefeng had a wife, but he didn’t know much about her, so the less he said, the better.
“Do you love her?” Jun Yunshang looked at Lin Fengmian and asked.
Lin Fengmian felt a bit uncomfortable, “How should I answer that?”
“Whether I loved her or not doesn’t matter now; she’s gone,” he said somberly.
“I’m sorry…”
Jun Yunshang lowered her head, looking at the broken stones on the ground and said dejectedly, “Master Ye, actually, Kang City is…”
Her voice became softer, and Lin Fengmian frowned, “What?”
