Seeking the Tao in the Mortal World - Chapter 122: Reminiscence

The so-called protection was not a pretense.

Because there were obviously enemies of the “Myriad Shinra Sect” lurking outside, most likely waiting for Ming He and the ancient zombie to perish together. They might appear at any time, so he couldn’t let his guard down.

It was not possible to go out now too. The enemies were probably waiting at the door with traps. Considering Ming He’s current injuries, they would have no chance for resistance. So, it was wise to recover from the injuries first.

Ming He sat in the house and looked at Qin Yi outside the house.

Qin Yi sat cross-legged and looked quietly in the direction of the medicinal garden.

His injury was not light, so he was trying to recover quickly.

Ming He didn’t know what he was thinking. Will he regret giving up the rare chance just now? In fact, at that moment, not to mention whether he did something too extreme, if it was just kissing and touching, I couldn’t settle the score with him afterward.

After all, he had just sacrificed his life to save me.

Even if he really did something extreme… I could probably sever the tie with him. He didn’t even need to take responsibility. He should have known better.

But he did nothing.

In fact, I knew that Qin Yi definitely wanted to. His desire at that moment couldn’t hide from me. He just couldn’t get over his mind. Maybe because he “doesn’t want to take advantage of the injured one” or maybe because he still misses Li Qingjun… In any case, he kept the bottom line.

This is a very trustworthy man.

Ming He didn’t know what was her mood right now.

She had no feelings of emotion, and her detached mind state had reached the Cloud Riding Stage. Mortal love affairs could hardly move her. But she must admit that when they were pressed tightly against each other, his breath was rippling on her cheek, and the feeling of burning desire was approaching… She would never be able to forget them immediately.

This might be the deepest experience that Ming He had in this journey to the mortal world. It might take many years to forget about it.

The words of the ancient zombie echoed in her ears again, “I also had people like you who fought tooth and nail to protect…”

Yes, this feeling was also hard to let go.

This feeling was still affecting her at this moment. Ming He had never been so weak. While she was helpless, a trustworthy person was guarding her outside the house.

The sense of peace was indescribable.

If I was reading a book in experiencing others’ affairs, now I’m experiencing it personally. As Qin Yi said, the feeling is really different from watching on the sidelines.

No wonder Qin Yi was willing to do so much for Li Qingjun.

Ming He sighed and finally collected his mind, entering a trance.

“She is in a trance now. We can speak.” Liu Su’s voice appeared in Qin Yi’s mindsea almost at the same time.

Qin Yi, “… You have been spying on her?”

“Because it’s fun. She’s unsettled now.”

“I’ve never seen such a nosy stick like you.”

“Hmph hmph.” Liu Su smiled and said, “Hey, you’ve been drooling over Ming He for not just a day or two. Why didn’t you kiss her just now? She probably won’t blame you or anything.”

“When did I drool over her? I said it was just a pure admiration for the beauty!”

“Bah, lier.” Liu Su said with disdain, “You just don’t have the gut.”

“Comrade Stick Stick, I have a girlfriend.”

“Girlfriend? Don’t you have a lot of girl friends? Ye Ling counts, Cheng Cheng counts, Ming He counts, so what’s the point?”

“I mean lover. I have Qingjun.”

“Where is she? In other words, when you succeed in cultivating to be immortal, who knows if the South Li Kingdom still exists? Are you going to apply for a chastity monument?”

Qin Yi was stunned for a moment.

Liu Su leisurely said, “Besides, your princess seems to be very generous in this aspect. Why are you being pretentious instead?”

Qin Yi said helplessly, “Why do you keep encouraging me to do this? You said before that you wanted me to experience the mortal world, but I already did that. What else do you want?”

Liu Su said confidently, “Because I want to see a fairy fall into the mortal world. It must be very interesting.”

Qin Yi looked at the stick in his hand speechlessly. What a disgusting taste…

Liu Su added, “Besides, you are not a pretentious person. You said at the beginning that if Cheng Cheng is willing to go with you, you will take her with you. So I-stick am sure that under your chivalrous handsome look, you actually have a very evil intention, which is playing a long con. You are going for her heart, am I right?”

“You even self-claim I-stick now?” Qin Yi roasted, but his face couldn’t help turning red. The damn stick that spent days and nights with him really saw through him.

Of course, the reason for not touching Ming He was because she was seriously injured. Was that the act of a man to take advantage of her injuries? Qin Yi would never violate his moral values. But if she volunteered, the essence was different… Even if she volunteered, they were still in danger, so they would at least not lose their sanity under the influence of desire.

The end result was that Qin Yi couldn’t take the initiative to catch her heart. The so-called long-term thinking** was nothing but self-comfort. He probably wouldn’t have the chance anymore. If he thought back in the future, he could only sing the song of ‘A Taoist Nun Friend of Mine’.

Qin Yi did not regret it and did not want to dwell on the matter, so he changed the subject, “Did you cast some sort of spell to wake up the ancient zombie?”

“Hmm… half right. I happened to invade his soul, so I used the art of recalling past events to awaken his remaining true spirit. But what really made him remember the past was the painting. Otherwise, the effect wouldn’t be so good.” Liu Su said with a sigh, “Love is so deep. He is much more like a man than you.”

“…”

Liu Su added, “This cultivator was in the Nascent Spirit Stage during his lifetime, very powerful. Therefore, his body was immortal and connected to the leyline. Even if he did not want to become a yin corpse, he would automatically turn into a yin corpse. Fortunately, he woke up in advance, which reduced its strength. If he was fully awakened, he would be the formidable drought zombie. The leyline vision that Han Men showed us before was right. “

Radiant Yang Stage(previously translated as Nascent Spirit Stage in Chapter 102). Qin Yi was getting used to the cultivation stages in this world, which were different from the Golden Pellet Stage and Nascent Spirit Stage that he was accustomed.

Previously, the Phoenix Initiation Stage could correspond to the Qi Training Stage, the Piano Heart Stage could correspond to the Foundation Establishing Stage, and the Cloud Riding Stage could correspond to the Golden Pellet Stage. They were all considered early stages and had similar characteristics, but the Nascent Spirit Stage did not condense a nascent spirit yet, so it didn’t correspond to the Nascent Spirit Stage. This was the biggest difference between the two systems, so the names were different.

Qin Yi currently did not know the specific situation of the Radiant Yang Stage, but Qin Yi understood it as the overpowered among the Nascent Spirit Stage. No wonder Qing Xu and others cannot enter his tomb at all, only the rat who was originally inside came out from within…

The treasure left behind by such an OP cultivator might be interesting.

Liu Su also said, “The treasures here should be very valuable. After the leyline recovers, this should be a training paradise. I suggest you cultivate here for a while. Of course, the premise is that the people of the Myriad Shinra Sect didn’t come.”

Before she finished, a slight sound came from the direction of the medicinal garden that Qin Yi had been paying attention to.

He immediately took off the painting on the wall, picked up Ming He who was still meditating, and ran straight to the depths of the tomb.

Originally, I thought that the enemy would not come in so quickly, so I planned to wait until Ming He recovered a little before exploring the tomb together. We can’t wait any longer now. I had already carried her on my back once, so it doesn’t matter if I princess hug her another time.

The enemy comes at the right time… If Liu Su hadn’t used the art to recall the zombie’s memories, the enemy really came at the right time to reap the benefits.

Of course, she can’t predict the changes inside, let alone know that I have a painting scroll that makes me immune to the tomb enchantment.

She may not even know that the main force in this battle is actually me instead of Ming He.

So, there is still a chance.
