In order to show that he was benign and open-hearted, Qin Yi invited Li Qingjun to Longevity Temple to see the dicinal materials. Li Qingjun happily held Qin Yi’s hand and walked on the streets of South Li Kingdom.
Facing the secretive look of others, Qin Yi blushed a little, but Li Qingjun took it for granted.
“Why do you care? With my brother’s support, our matter…” Li Qingjun still felt a little shy after saying this, and she paused slightly before continuing, “Our matter is a foregone conclusion. Just wait for the auspicious day. Unless you don’t want .”
Qin Yi hurriedly said, “How could I?”
“You’re a State Preceptor after all…” Li Qingjun said faintly, “My father once gave Dong Huazi many virgins. When the ti cos, beauties will surround you. How can you have ti for ?”
“Well, your father also wanted to give 500 virgins.” Qin Yi snorted, “Even if you add them all up, they are less than one finger of yours in my eyes.”
Li Qingjun titled her head slightly and glanced at him, “Really?”
“Didn’t you believe it back then? Now you don’t believe it anymore…”
Li Qingjun was silent for a mont, then she said in a low voice, “At that ti, I thought it was far away, so I believed it as I wanted. Now that it’s close, I worry about gains and losses. It’s like… my brother used to feel disdain for longevity, but now… no one knows what the hell is he thinking?”
Qin Yi also sighed without answering.
Li Qingjun smiled again, “500 virgins are too many, but if you are granted with given a few beauties to serve you, just keep them. You can’t count on Ye Ling, a guy who can’t even take care of herself… You can wait until she grows up.”
Qin Yi was embarrassed, “Why are you saying these…”
“Because…” Li Qingjun hesitated, and she finally said, “I’m afraid you will leave.”
Qin Yi was shocked and stopped in his tracks.
Yeah…
If the matter is resolved, it would be best for Li Qingjun to leave, then we can roam the world together freely.
But what if Li Qingjun really needed to stay in the South Li Kingdom? If so, where should I go?
Stay here with her forever as a State Preceptor and prince consort?
Not only is this not the life Li Qingjun originally wanted, it is also not the life I wanted either.
They stood on the street, looking at each other quietly. After a long ti, Qin Yi said, “I…”
Li Qingjun put her index finger on his lips, “Don’t say it yet.”
Qin Yi stopped talking.
Li Qingjun’s eyes flickered as she whispered, “Kiss .”
On this street…
The sealed warehouse in Longevity Temple indeed had countless treasures.
South Li Kingdom was small and remote with few resources, but Dong Huazi’s plunder in this dozen years couldn’t be underestimated.
Qin Yi found countless things suitable for his own use. He even found several dicinal materials that were beneficial in delaying Li Qinglin’s aging. But it was a pity that the soul nourishnt that Liu Su wanted was still very rare. In the end, he only found a few “soul bind grass”. The effect was even greatly reduced due to poor preservation.
Qin Yi took the soul bind grass, and only picked out a few pieces of other dicinal materials before re-sealing the warehouse.
Li Qingjun leaned against the door and asked, “Why don’t you take more?”
“These are enough for .” Qin Yi smiled while holding a piece of rhizo, “Do you know what it is?”
“How could I know……”
“This is the purple lotus root that I needed in refining dicine before I left the mountain with you.”
Li Qingjun laughed with a hint of nostalgia in her eyes.
Qin Yi said, “This thing is used to refine a dicated bath that helps to nourish true qi. I needed it at the beginning to help break through the Innate Stage. But now that I have entered the Innate Stage, it is for you now.”
Li Qingjun bit her lower lip, “You want to bribe , the princess, with this cheap root?”
Qin Yi stepped forward and hugged her, whispering, “I have another… to bribe princess. Princess will definitely like it.”
Li Qingjun smiled with a blush.
Liu Su, who was beside, was so disgusted. They were such an innocent couple back then, but now they are already polluted without anyone teaching.
No, Qin Yi was a bit lecherous at first, but now he is running wild on this path. But now, he even influenced Li Qingjun.
They kiss again, and their hands are even caressing each other. I really wish to grow my hands imdiately to cover my head from this.
Out of sight, out of mind.
Hmm, right… I can turn off my soul power.
Liu Su began to shut itself up.
At this mont, a neat voice ca from outside, “Greetings, Your Majesty.”
They separated in a hurry. Li Qingjun couldn’t lift her head.
Li Qinglin walked over slowly. Watching from a distance, Qin Yi quickly withdrew himself from the beauty and had a heavy mood instead.
Because Li Qinglin walked very slowly.
He had always been vigorous in his steps. Even when he was cursed just yesterday, he still insisted on walking in big strides in front of everyone. Today was the first ti Qin Yi saw him walking slowly, like a shambling old man.
Qin Yi reminded himself again that the Young Li Qinglin before him was just Ming He’s illusion. Li Qingling was already a real old man.
Li Qinglin walked closer, looked at the flushed younger sister and smiled, and said slowly, “Is State Preceptor happy?”
Qin Yi sighed, “Take back the title of State Preceptor. These things here are useful to your current condition… At least it can delay it.”
“I’m still aging.” Li Qinglin didn’t seem to hear what he said as he continued muttering, “According to this trend, I may not even make it through a year.”
Li Qingjun looked up suddenly.
Li Qinglin said again, “Brother Qin, there is a big problem now.”
Qin Yi said, “Please tell .”
“I found that my energy is low, and my thinking is much slower than before.” Li Qinglin said in a low voice, “Such an old , I can’t accomplish what I want to do. I even feel powerless to clean up the ss caused by Dong Huazi these years.”
Aging, lack of energy, sluggish thinking.
It was not just about facing death, but in this state, he couldn’t do anything at all.
Even immortal cultivating would fail too, and it might even be worse.
No matter how he chose, the only option was to abdicate the throne.
But in this matter, Li Qinglin had his own desire and did not want to let go; Qin Yi also had his own desire. He did not want Li Qingjun to succeed.
So he tacitly fell silent.
“Qingjun.” Li Qinglin turned to his younger sister, “You will join the politics. Participate in the court today. Learn first. Anyway, the auspicious day for you and Qin Yi… You can decide it. We are not in a hurry anyway.”
Li Qingjun sighed, “Okay.”
Li Qinglin looked at Qin Yi for the last ti. His lips twitched as if he wanted to say sothing, but he finally bit his lower lip hard and insisted not to speak. Then, he turned around and said, “The dicine to delay the aging… I’ll count on you, Brother Qin.”
Back at the crown prince mansion, Qin Yi dripped the juice of the soul bind grass on the mace, smashed the herbal dicine, and spread it evenly. He was a little in a trance while doing these.
While enjoying his sar comfortably, Liu Su said in annoyance, “What are you thinking about?”
“I’m wondering if this South Li Kingdom is going to be a selfish sacrifice for Li Qinglin and…and .”
“Just sacrifice it.” Liu Su said indifferently, “This is his kingdom, not yours. It would be better if the South Li Kingdom is destroyed, so you can go far away with Li Qingjun, right? Just let this ss develop on its own.”
Qin Yi paused his actions as Liu Su got what he was thinking.
Maybe Ming He thought that Qin Yi was entangled in friendship and had a pure heart, but in his mind was actually a selfish desire. That was the deepest devil hidden in people’s hearts.
Only Liu Su who spent day and night with him could see through him.
Qin Yi didn’t say anything more. He just silently applied the dicine to the mace and carefully put it aside. After that, he took out the selected dicinal materials and prepared to make elixirs.
The furnace fire rose up, and Qin Yi sat motionless by the fire and stared at it. His face was flickering under the reflection of the faint blue flas.
