Wen Zhixing had always been a proper person. He would never bow down for beauty’s sake.
Of course, it had to be said that although Lianxin was just a servant of Murong Fenghua, she could be considered top-notch in terms of looks, especially with her cleverness and understanding adding quite a few points in her favor. Ask yourself, who wouldn’t like an obedient and sensible girl? This was what many people dread of.
"Mr. Wen..." Lianxin’s rosy little mouth opened slightly. She spoke in a delicate voice, her face adorned with a tipsy charm. Perhaps due to just having taken a bath, a few water droplets still lingered on her fragrant shoulders. Under the faint light, her tender skin emitted a lustrous sheen, adding a touch of color to the rudintary cave dwelling.
"Lianxin..." Wen Zhixing slowly raised his head, his gaze slightly intense.
BOOM! BOOM!
The Nine-Turns Sun Sutra inside his body began to spin faster.
"Mr. Wen," Lianxin spoke shyly, yet her eyes inadvertently darted around. A young girl, after all, was still just a young girl. Even if she had made up her mind, how could she perfectly conceal the unease in her heart?
"Lianxin." Wen Zhixing’s gaze rippled slightly, waves of emotion surging within him. Naturally, he wasn’t a reserved man. Although he wouldn’t actively provoke others ordinarily, when confronted by those who sought trouble, Wen Zhixing would surely see it through to the end.
"Mr. Wen, are you ready to rest? Shall I..." Lianxin bit her lip gently. Her alluring lips seed to radiate with a watery hue. As she spoke, however, Wen Zhixing’s figure disappeared from Lianxin’s view.
The next mont, a warm and rough hand appeared on her waist.
"AH~"
Before Lianxin could react, she felt a sensation of weightlessness, her body already suspended in the air. A rich Yang Qi washed over her face. Lianxin’s pair of immaculate, smooth, slender white feet kicked lightly in the air, and then she slid into Wen Zhixing’s warm embrace.
"Mr. Wen..." Lianxin felt as if she could scarcely breathe, her eyes a mix of panic and secret delight. It was too hot.
As the Nine-Turns Sun Sutra circulated, an incredibly powerful Yang Qi erged from Wen Zhixing’s body. To Lianxin, this aura was even more lethal than the Wonderous Soul-devouring Pill. Just being embraced, she already felt a sense of breathless ecstasy.
"Rest assured, I will take good care of you in the future," Wen Zhixing said in a gentle tone.
"Mmm..." Upon hearing his words, Lianxin’s heart quivered, then pounded wildly like a trapped deer. She had never seen Wen Zhixing smile so tenderly before. His pitch-black, deep eyes shimred with a gentle, watery light. She knew her own diocrity. Perhaps Wen Zhixing was her best destiny.
WHOOSH~
Accompanied by a gust of wind from his sleeve, the candle flas in the cave dwelling flickered and then extinguished.

「A night hurried by.」
In the mid-spring season, the grass was lush, and flowers scattered in profusion. In the cave dwelling, there were several potted plants, now in full bloom, exceptionally bright and colorful.
While sparring with Lianxin, Wen Zhixing did not forget to collect Fortune Fragnts. He was truly working hard. It had to be said, he was playing with his life on the line. Fortunately, on the fifth attempt to collect Fortune Fragnts, he directly drew a Purple Fortune Fragnt. His luck wasn’t bad.
Quite coincidentally, this harvest nearly completed the collection of previously gathered Fortune Fragnts. Only a single Golden Fortune Fragnt was still missing.
[Current Golden Fortune Fragnt: 4/5.]
At this mont, Lianxin, defeated in last night’s sparring, was nestled in Wen Zhixing’s arms, sleeping soundly like a kitten. An involuntary smile graced her face, her long eyelashes trembling slightly with each breath. Wen Zhixing looked down, gently stroking the girl’s fair and smooth cheek, his eyes full of tender affection.
"Mmm..." Lianxin murmured in her sleep and turned over, snuggling closer into Wen Zhixing’s embrace.
It had to be said, she was truly a bit tired. This night-long sparring was hardly sothing she, a beginner, could handle. Of course, where there is effort, there is reward. After all, it was cultivation, and with a master like Wen Zhixing, how could she not make progress during their "sparring"?
From this encounter, Lianxin’s gains were substantial. The Pure Yang Qi in Wen Zhixing’s body was imnsely helpful to her. Lianxin’s cultivation, which had been stagnant, broke through its shackles overnight, and she officially stepped into the Fourth Realm.
With her original talent, she might have remained in the Third Realm indefinitely. But in the future, with Wen Zhixing’s help, a different path might await her. If she could obtain the Genius Spirit Seed and improve her constitution, advancing into the Genius Spirit Realm would not be impossible.
For Wen Zhixing, since the Nine-Turns Sun Sutra currently lacked the latter volu, he couldn’t break through for the ti being. Eventually, he would need to find an opportunity to locate Liu Qingxuan and get his hands on the latter volu.
Let’s activate the fortune first, Wen Zhixing thought. He didn’t allow himself to get lost in romantic affections; he knew very well when it was ti for serious matters. Gently arranging Lianxin to one side, he opened the panel.
[Gray Fortune Fragnt (1/1) has been collected. No synthesis is needed. One of the following fortunes can be obtained:]
[Option One: Gain Talent: Talented Talisman Maker.]
[Option Two: Gain 1 Fortune Point.]
[Option Three: Gain Lianxin’s fortune.]
—
Talented Talisman Maker... It has been a long ti since I received anything good from the Gray Fortune. Unexpectedly, I’ve drawn another useful item.
He chose Option One: Talented Talisman Maker.
[Talent Gained: Talented Talisman Maker!]
