Chapter 18: The Yellow-haired Guy Unbuttoned the Protagonist’s Clothes… Wait, No, It’s the Heart Strings!

The Peiyuan Pill isn’t just any ordinary medicinal pill; it is specifically designed for those in the Qi Refinement stage. It’s the only type that cultivators can endure without causing their cultivation level to spiral out of control, and even one such pill is rare.

But the top-grade Peiyuan Pills are even more scarce, so much so that even in the Eastern Continent, some top-notch families might not be able to get their hands on a few even if their younger generations are still in the Qi Refinement stage.

Even if the Yun family were to act arrogantly, five top-grade Peiyuan Pills would not be given away like candy.

Yun Zhonghe couldn’t help but feel a twinge of pain at giving away such treasures.

Thankfully, he had already reached the third layer of Foundation Establishment, so he didn’t need these top-grade Peiyuan Pills anymore. Embracing the idea that “fat cannot flow outside the family,” it wouldn’t be too bad to give them to Lin Zhongyu.

It’s all family after all, and there was no loss here.

“No, this item is too precious, I cannot accept it!”

Lin Zhongyu immediately refused.

If she claimed she wasn’t tempted, that would be a lie. With these five top-grade Peiyuan Pills, Lin Zhongyu could quickly recover and return to her Foundation Establishment stage, reaching new heights. This way, she would have a chance to be selected by elder Xuantian Sect after seven days, meaning she wouldn’t have to worry about parting ways with Mu Jixue.

However, the item was too valuable. Even if the Yun family’s secret technique, the Eight Desolations Sword Technique, were offered, she would still hesitate.

Yun Zhonghe had already paid enough, how could she make him spend more?

“Take it.”

But Yun Zhonghe spoke calmly, his eyes fixated on Lin Zhongyu as if his words brooked no refusal.

Seeing Yun Zhonghe’s resilient green eyes, Lin Zhongyu suddenly felt like crying, the tears almost spilling out of her eyes.

She had been so long without feeling the warmth of someone else’s concern…

Even Mu Jixue provided mostly emotional solace whereas Yun Zhonghe gave freely of his material support. He gave so much!

While Lin Zhongyu wasn’t particularly greedy for wealth, in the path of cultivation, money was essential. Without it, everything was impossible.

After dropping off the pills, Yun Zhonghe prepared to leave. Lin Zhongyu wanted to stop him, but didn’t know what to say. She wanted to show gratitude, but knew all the words would pale in comparison to her feelings.

Her ripe red lips glistened like a succulent fruit.

The chilly night wind blew through her hair, yet it couldn’t quench the fiery spirit within her.

But then, facing away from her and with a foot poised to leave, Yun Zhonghe remembered something. “I once heard someone say…”

“Thirty years east of the river, thirty years west, never mock a poor girl.”

“To you, Miss Lin, I hope you will be as tenacious as she.”

These wise words firmly planted themselves in her heart.

With that, Yun Zhonghe used Spiritual Energy to leap away.

“I must go now, or I might not hold myself back.”

Yun Zhonghe’s face flushed, making him feel awkward all over. If he hesitated any longer, his ‘chicken leg’ would slip out, so better retreat gracefully. After noticing Lin Zhongyu’s reaction, although the proverb seemed outdated to his reborn self, it clearly resonated with naive natives.

This relationship should stabilize now!

From this event, Yun Zhonghe believed his relationship with Lin Zhongyu was about to hit new heights. Her trust and fondness for him would certainly skyrocket. By now, even if he initiated a friendly handshake or patted her face—things typically reserved for close friends—she probably wouldn’t mind.

“Nonetheless, my primary goal is still to establish a connection with Huang Aotian. Until relations with her improve, I must keep a conservative distance from the protagonist to avoid displeasing her.”

Summarizing the situation, his confidence surged. Yet, he couldn’t afford complacency just because things were going well with Lin Zhongyu. Instead, he needed to seize this opportunity fully.

“Yes, I should consider how to create more opportunities through Lin Zhongyu to interact with both parties.”

Yun Zhonghe set up another brainstorming session; how busy one could get!

The next day, under the bright sunshine, the warm rays illuminated Lin Zhongyu’s previously gloomy room.

It was the first time she felt comfort in this old, dilapidated little space. Of course, perhaps it was her mindset that had undergone a complete transformation, as her current complexion was radiant and full of energy, completely different from before.

Last night, after returning from the mountains, instead of resting, Lin Zhongyu immersed herself in rigorous practice.

After swallowing a top-grade Peiyuan Pill and using the Golden Emperor Sacred Eyes to guide the energy inside it, in half a night, she fully assimilated the pill, rising two levels to reach Qi Refinement stage seventh layer!

Entering the later Qi Refinement stage brought an endless stream of spiritual energy, and her vibrant blood made her feel explosively powerful. She looked full of vitality, with smooth, white skin glowing in a healthy glow.

Standing in front of the mirror, she couldn’t help but smile widely, “Brother Yun, I won’t disappoint you.”

Now she addressed Yun Zhonghe as Brother Yun instead of Young Master Yun.

With his support, she was confident she would achieve her Foundation Establishment stage before the selection ceremony!

However, the person in the room with her continued sleeping soundly.

“Xue, get up! The sun is already high!”

“Mmm… Little Yu, let me sleep a bit more…”

A cute drowsy figure wrapped herself up in her blanket like a caterpillar. She rolled over, revealing her fluffy panties underneath.

Lin Zhongyu shook her head, feeling some envy. Such a genius as Mu Jixue, even without pushing herself to the limit in training, was far ahead of her peers by leaps and bounds.

All it took was a little bit of practice for her each day, and she was achieving more than others did over several days.

If Mu Jixue became more diligent, she could advance even faster.

Yet, Lin Zhongyu knew Mu Jixue was deliberately slowing down her progress to wait for her.

That’s Mu Jixue’s kindness, though she never voiced it, Lin Zhongyu knew all too well.

“I’ve always been so blessed, with two people truly looking out for me.”

Lin Zhongyu sighed with gratitude.

Truly, happiness has always been by her side; we often overlook it and focus too much on far-off dreams.

Silently vowing to herself, she would cherish the two most precious people in her life.

So quietly, she leaned towards Mu Jixue’s ear and suddenly shouted, “Xue, Master Youyue is here!”

Mu Jixue, who was snoring, suddenly sprang up from bed, “Teacher? Where?”

Looking like a startled rabbit.

Seeing Lin Zhongyu smirking, she realized she’d been tricked. Pouting, she hissed, “Liiittt—tle Yuii!!”
