In the Xu residence.
“Of course I’m just giving an excuse,” Xu Lingjun smiled as he answered Wang Qingya’s question.
Others might not be able to tell, but how could Wang Qingya not be able to tell just how perfunctory the excuse Xu Lingjun was using?
She was rather surprised. After all, everyone took pride in joining the sect. After becoming a sect disciple, one’s progress in the early stages would even be faster than those that joined the martial arts universities.
Xu Lingjun’s dream was to join the North Xuanwu Univerisity.
But in fact, joining the Riyueming Sect was not inferior to joining the North Xuanwu University. Rather, it might even be better.
She just couldn’t understand why Xu Lingjun would refuse.
In front of Wang Qingya, Xu Lingjun finally spoke the truth.
He asked with a smile, “Well, what will I get if I join the sect, Sister Yaya?”
“The cultivation technique that suits you the most, the highest-grade medicinal pills and treasures, as well as the most serious and excellent master to guide you through your questions?” Wang Qingya thought for a moment before continuing, “And in terms of equipment, whether it’s weapons or defensive equipment, I heard that the standard weapons of the sect disciples are at least C-grade. C-grade weapons can increase the strength of a martial artist in the True-transformation Tier by at least more than half. The sect can cover almost everything that a martial artist needs, and…”
She paused, “And, Miss Ji is very beautiful. Her long hair flutters in the wind, and she looks like someone from a scholarly family. If you like her, Xiao Jun, didn’t I say before that for you to marry me… Ahem… To ask you to take me as your wife is a little too harsh on you. If you want to, as long as my father doesn’t know that you’re hooking up with women outside, I couldn’t care less about what you did outside. Just remember not to go for the hookers since you may end up with many strange illnesses, which may affect me as well.”
After Wang Qingya finished saying all this, she thought for a moment, then added, “Oh right, there’s one more thing. You can go look for women outside, but your first time must belong to me. I’ll keep my virginity for you, and I want your virginity too. So be careful not to engage in sexual relations, understand?”
Xu Lingjun said speechlessly, “You’ve never said that before, right?”
My virginity?
Was she kidding? He had already given that to his two lovers — his left and right hands.
Wang Qingya shifted her face away and said, “It’s not too late to say it now. This is just the most basic respect between husband and wife. I have no intention of playing games with you, and you’re not allowed to act as a fake husband with me. You can do whatever you want after we get married, but I’m your wife, you have to give me this bit of respect.”
“But our previous bet…” Xu Lingjun stopped halfway through his sentence.
The bet between the two of them was that if he lost, he would obediently marry and give birth to children with sister Yaya.
However, if he won, the Wang family would fully sponsor him, but there was no mention of a cancellation of the engagement between the two of them.
Xu Lingjun’s gaze swept across Wang Qingya’s tall figure.
After thinking for a while, he did not say the words to complete the bet… Sister Yaya was so beautiful, and she knew how to take care of him. She was also very considerate and open-minded. It did not matter whether he loved such a good woman or not, he should first marry her and think about it later.
“Okay, the topic is off,” Wang Qingya quickly ended the topic and said, “All in all, I just want to tell you that if you like that Ji Roufeng, you can go and pursue her without worries… Don’t worry about me. I support you, though I do notice that you don’t seem to be interested in joining the sect, nor do you have any interest in her.”
“Because I don’t need those things.”
Xu Lingjun thought to himself, cultivation technique?
He already had a Celestial Demon grade body tempering cultivation technique. Even if he had to cultivate other cultivation techniques in the future, with his source value, how could he still be worried about not being able to find a cultivation technique?
The same went for martial techniques, medicinal pills, and so on.
Oh right, there was also the issue of weapons.
Since he could obtain all these with his source value, why should he sacrifice his freedom to exchange for them?
To say that they could provide him with the teacher’s guidance was even more ridiculous… What guidance did he need?
Guidance on how to break through to the third realm of the Infinite Celestial Demon Body-tempering Technique?
Source value was his greatest secret, and it is destined that it can not be shared with others. No matter how profound the cultivation technique was, he can only explore it by himself. At the worst, he could learn by analogy. There was no need for him to join the sect for these things.
“A sect is little use to me. I am really not interested,” Xu Lingjun said, “Although what I said before was just an excuse, it’s also quite rare to have such a suitable excuse. Sect Master Mingri is quite a proud man, so if I refuse repeatedly, he definitely won’t insist on taking me as a disciple again. After all, he’s the sect master. He won’t lower himself for a disciple like me. Either way, this excuse is reasonable and won’t offend them.”
In fact, it was just as Xu Lingjun had expected.
In the next two days, Sect Master Mingri came twice again, hinting indirectly a few times, but Xu Lingjun either pretended to not understand or felt unworthy. His face read “I’m just a mortal and really am not worth the immortal qi in the sect”.
As such, Sect Master Mingri came to a conclusion.
“It seems that this kid has quite a strong temper,” He sighed, “When Feng’er had suddenly gone back on her words after inviting him, I’m afraid it hurt his self-esteem, causing him to develop a sense of rejection towards the Riyueming Sect. That’s why he’s unwilling to join our sect even if he dies.”
Although the reason that his self-esteem was hurt when he didn’t succeed in cheating was a little ridiculous, it couldn’t be helped. When a person was great enough, his cheating couldn’t be considered cheating.
“Then what should we do?”
“It seems that this child is not fated to be with us, after all,” Mingri sighed, “Besides, he has already reached the Qi-gathering Tier.”
Qi-gathering.
Liu Peiyun understood what her senior brother meant.
One was not just focused on one cultivation technique in one’s lifetime.
Some cultivation techniques were durable, some could be ice or fire, and some were as sharp and powerful as a lightning dragon.
In martial arts cultivation, true qi was cultivated from the outside to the inside. One would use one’s body to temper the qi power, then use the qi power to condense the true qi.
Martial techniques were just accelerators for the circulation of true qi. If one found it to be unsuitable, one could just change it.
However, the martial technique cultivated when initially gathering qi was was extremely important, because it was the first wisp of true qi that would be born in one’s body. If the martial technique was not strong or pure, though the negative effects were hidden at the beginning, the further one advanced, the more difficult it would be to move forward.
The path of martial arts could not tolerate the slightest bit of negligence.
Xu Lingjun might have outstanding talent, but at this moment, he had already made a mistake. After all, Qingzhou City was just a remote place in the middle of nowhere. What kind of high-grade cultivation technique could there be here?
Only the sect could help him make up for this mistake.
“Since he is not willing, let’s not force him. Let’s return to the sect first thing tomorrow morning,” Mingri sighed, “What a pity for such a talented person. I’m afraid he will eventually fade into obscurity after many years. However, this is his choice, so we can’t force him…”
He paused and asked, “Oh right, do any of you know what is the cultivation technique that Xu Lingjun cultivates?”
Ji Roufeng said hesitantly, “It seems to be something with the words Body-tempering technique. I’m not too sure what the specific name is, but it’s quite long!”
“Body-tempering Technique, huh? I’ve found the reason he could block the bone-splitting lizard’s bite. To cultivate an unknown body-tempering cultivation technique to such a level, Xu Lingjun is indeed a genius!”
Mingri said regretfully, “It’s a pity that he can’t be useful to the Riyueming Sect. Forget it… forget it… Body-tempering is just a small path after all. Since his foundation has already been established, it’ll be difficult for him to have great achievements in the future. There’s no need to bother about him anymore. I can see that Li Lei is already about to succeed in gathering his qi. We’d better return to the sect as soon as possible and choose a suitable cultivation technique for him. In my opinion, the Legendary grade cultivation technique ‘Nine Heavens Thunderclap’ is very suitable for him.”
Although he had said it as if he didn’t mind, Mingri couldn’t help but feel a little regretful, and even a little resentful in his heart… He, the sect master, had personally come to invite Xu Lingjun, which was already giving him enough respect, yet to think the brat was unwilling to agree due to his self-esteem.
Does he think he’s the child of the universe and everyone has to revolve around him?
Fine, since Xu Lingjun didn’t agree, I’ll train your good friend.
Karma is a cycle.
After a few years, Xu Lingjun will be like any other ordinary person, while his best friend would already be above 90% of his peers. At that time, he would see if Xu Lingjun would regret it..
