Spoiler t.i.tle

Bai Yue’s two eyes were staring at Lu Feng, her expression was emotionless. Seemingly an ice-cold n.o.blewoman. Oddly, her eyes contained a trace of struggle. Lu Feng knew this wasn’t the first time Bai Yue had this att.i.tude towards him. This wasn’t the first time Lu Feng experienced her frosty nature, it was as if she was hesitating.

Lu Feng asked again, “Miss Bai, did something happen.” Bai Yue acted like she just woke up and replied, “You’ve cultivated before, right.” The only time Lu Feng cultivated was just before the marriage to protect himself and not taking into account the spirit slippers nor the ability he learned, Lu Feng did not know much. The spiritual qi he had acc.u.mulated has not increased either. Everytime he uses it up, it will slowly restore itself. Thus, he did not consider himself to really cultivate actively.

Lu Feng smiled, “I’ve never cultivated before, all I did was practice some insignificant movement techniques and martial arts.” Bai Yue was expressionless as she said, “But you’ve already acc.u.mulated qi and reached the first stage, you could be considered a cultivator already.”

Lu Feng curiously answered, “Does it really count, ah?”

“It does!”

Lu Feng was making an oh sound, when suddenly Bai Yue moved extremely quickly and arrived at his bedside. He could feel an icy aura which contained a slight fragrance. When he smelt this, he suddenly became full of vitality and not tired anymore.

Bai Yue was only a step away from Lu Feng as she indifferently said, “If I was an enemy, you’d already be dead.” Not knowing how to reply, he looked at her and wryly said, “Miss Bai, what do you mean to say.”

“What I want to say is that, you turning the green spirit fruits ripe overnight is too blatant. If some powerful cultivators hear of this, they would definitely think you have some amazing ability or talisman.”

When Lu Feng heard this, his heart eased up, “Miss Bai, are you worried about my safety?” Bai Yue coldly replied, “I’m not worried about you, what I’m worried is about the Bai family.”

Although Bai Yue said this, Lu Feng still believed that she was concerned for him. He then sweetly smiled, “What is there to be scared of, what’s done is done.” Using her eyes to stare at Lu Feng, Bai Yue asked “Are you not scared of death?”

“For my beloved, I’m prepared to die.” Lu Feng said this with a proud laugh making Bai Yue completely speechless. Lu Feng was curious as he asked, “But… what is the matter with you.” Bai Yue immediately replied back as she stared icily at him, “Who is your ‘beloved’.”

Lu Feng had a shameless smile on his face as he replied, “It’s you of course ha.” Bai Yue’s emotionless face was starting to get a little bit red. Except there is a trace of anger in her eyes as she to shouted out, “If you keep talking nonsense, then I will kick you out myself.”

Lu Feng quickly begged for mercy, “No, no… I won’t say it anymore.” Bai Yue relaxed a little, “Just look after yourself, if you can’t even protect yourself then how will you protect others?”

Hearing this Lu Feng was shocked, it was completely accurate. He was ignoring the fact that Bai Yue was a cultivator. She was a strong cultivator thus regarding the problems within the Bai Family, she did not put them in her eyes. To be exact, he only had a normal person’s mentality and did not have any ambition for cultivating.

This was because he a.s.sumed that there were a lot of difficulties during the road of cultivation, it was heavily prevalent in online novels. Once one set foot on the road of cultivation, then their fate was left to heaven to decide. They could get robbed or killed by an expert at any moment.

“What’s wrong? Are you scared?” Bai Yue looked at the dim-witted Lu Feng. Lu Feng wasn’t a three year old, how could he be so easily frightened. He was actually thinking, then he had dignified expression on his face, “Although I’m weak now doesn’t mean I’ll forever be weak. I’ll definitely raise my power and be able to protect you.”

After saying this, Lu Feng turned to leave. Looking at Lu Feng’s figure, Bai Yue stood there in a daze. She didn’t know how to reply him, after all, she had never heard a man say these words in her entire life. Moreover, protecting her which contrasted with cultivation.

At this moment, Lu Feng was running back to the immortal cloud mountain. Naturally he was looking for the Old Man. He guessed the Old Man is a cultivator although he couldn’t determine how strong but he should not be inferior to Bai Yue. That’s why Lu Feng was finding him for pointers on cultivating.

When he arrived at the top of the mountain, Lu Feng saw a person’s figure. “That can’t be right, the Old Man never left before.” This made Lu Feng worry a little, quickly going into the house.

When he entered, he saw a letter on the stone bed. Lu Feng wondered, “What’s this?” On the letter had Lu Feng’s name written, surprised Lu Feng muttered, “Could it be from the Old Man.” Curious Lu Feng decided to open the letter.

“Immortals? Do they exist? Brat, this old man is looking for immortality. As for the little Bai girl’s problem, I’m sure you can solve it yourself. I am not going to help you anymore, don’t come and find me.”

After reading this, Lu Feng loudly cursed “This Old man is so unreasonable, leaving his mess here for me to fix. I’ll definitely die early… just wait dammit, if you let me find you I’ll definitely screw you.”

Holding the letter in his hand, Lu Feng depressedly laid down in anger while looking at the ceiling. But in his mind he sighed, “The old man left, why do I feel sorry.”

Lu Feng cursed himself for being so sensitive, he felt that the stone bed was an ice cold inheritance from the Old Man. Quickly standing up, he muttered, “What’s going on, why is it suddenly colder than before.” This made Lu Feng puzzled.

The cold did not frighten him or anything, he knew that in this cultivators world anything can happen. So that’s why he curiously stroked the stone bed, which suddenly caused some qi to flow into his body.

Lu Feng was silent, “Isn’t this spirit qi?” He quickly started probing the stone bed, his eyes were sparkling with joy. His mouth was quivering, “This Old Man’s stone bed, could it be some weapon artifact.”

Looking at the stone bed, he found some words under the bed. It was quite dark under there so he could not properly see the words, and could only flip the bed.

But even as he used all of his strength the bed did not budge, making him shout “d.a.m.ned geezer, why is the text on the back. I’m so G.o.dd.a.m.n exhausted, once I find that b.a.s.t.a.r.d I’ll definitely give him a nice lesson.”

When he finally flipped it, Lu Feng was shocked as he saw a whole row of words. Those couple of words he saw before was just the starting of the sentence, “Idiot brat, when you are reading this I would have already left. You probably notice that there is something strange with the stone. Since you have already started on the road of cultivation. Last time I never taught you any ability nor any heart mantras and also no chance to cultivate. It’s because cultivation is very very difficult, being an ordinary mortal is very good. If I had another chance, I would never cultivate at all. Because it’s a never ending route of killing and violence, looking in vain for the non-existent road to immortality.”

Reading this, Lu Feng angrily remarked, “You smelly geezer, don’t teach then don’t! Why must you say such a long excuse.”

When Lu Feng’s eyes swept across the bottom line of words it stated, “When you continue to look down, you must be mentally prepared. I never left anything behind for you, only this heart sutra. You should carefully study it, Don’t read this, your esteemed and cute master!”

“Pui, esteemed and cute? You d.a.m.n geezer, stingy, disciple oppressing geezer!” When he read this entire statement made him think of the old man’s stupid appearance.
