章節 16: Chapter 16: The Master's Task
Li Ran pinched his chin. "Since that's the case, do you have any other wishes?"
"As long as I can stay by the Holy Son's side..."
"Besides that."
"Um..."
Ah Qin fell into deep thought.
For the past ten years, she had lived like a shadow, completely devoted to Li Ran, and never thought about what she needed for herself.
"If possible, Ah Qin would like to cultivate as an immortal," she answered after a long pause.
"Oh?"
Li Ran smiled. "And what's your reason? Do you want to become stronger or attain immortality?"
Cultivating as an immortal usually falls into one of these two purposes.
Ah Qin shook her head. "Neither. Ah Qin just wants to be a useful person, so I can continue to serve the Holy Son."
Li Ran fell silent.
He hadn't expected that her only wish would still be to stay by his side.
"But it's just wishful thinking," Ah Qin self-mockingly smiled. "When I was young, my cultivation talent was tested, and it was very mediocre. I couldn't even practice."
Li Ran hesitated at her words.
"What if I could give you talent?"
"Huh?"
Ah Qin froze.
Li Ran opened his palm, and two spheres of light appeared in his hand. One was pink, and the other was silver-white, silently hovering in the air.
The system rewards could be given to anyone and taken back at any time, so Li Ran had no worries about it.
"What is this?" Ah Qin looked curious.
Li Ran gave a brief explanation.
"Dual... dual cultivation?!" Ah Qin's face turned so red it seemed like it might start emitting smoke, her eyes shimmering with a glistening light.
Though she was a mortal, she still understood the implications of those two words.
So embarrassing!
"Um... even though it's this kind of cultivation, it doesn't necessarily mean you have to engage in dual cultivation. Judging solely from talent and cultivation speed, it's still one of the best in the world." Li Ran explained somewhat awkwardly.
He just wanted to make it up to Ah Qin and had no ulterior motives.
Changing her constitution was the only way to allow her to cultivate.
"I'm willing!" Ah Qin answered without hesitation.
Li Ran warned, "However, I need to remind you that I can give you this constitution, but I can also take it back at any time. If I do, it might cost you your life. Are you still willing?"
"Of course. If you want to leave, the previous offer still stands, and I will make all the arrangements."
Ah Qin didn't hesitate. "I choose cultivation!"
"Even if it means entrusting your life to me?"
"Yes!"
Ah Qin smiled and nodded.
It seemed like this was something worth being happy about.
Li Ran looked at her blossoming smile and couldn't help but be taken aback.
He sighed and ruffled her head.
"Silly girl."
"Holy Son..."
Ah Qin squinted her eyes, thoroughly enjoying the contact.
...
Li Ran infused the red sphere of light into Ah Qin's body.
Without any resistance on her part, her body underwent rapid transformation. Previous injuries and scars melted away, leaving her skin as smooth as silk.
A hint of enchantment appeared at the corner of her eyes.
In the span of a tea ceremony, she had become the extremely rare "Charming Maiden Spirit Marrow Body."
Following that, Li Ran transmitted the "Mysterious Luminous Scripture" to her.
From that point on, Ah Qin officially embarked on the path of cultivation.
"Alright, this constitution and technique match quite well. You can cultivate according to this technique, and your progress will be rapid," Li Ran said.
"Okay."
Ah Qin bit her lip, reaching to undo her clothing.
Li Ran was startled. "What are you doing?!"
"Cultivating, of course."
Ah Qin said matter-of-factly, "Didn't Lord Holy Son say I should follow the technique to cultivate? That's how it's taught in the Mysterious Luminous Scripture~"
As she spoke, her hands continued their actions.
"Stop!"
Li Ran quickly stopped her.
What the heck, this girl actually wants to reverse the situation on me?
When have I ever suffered such grievances?
Seeing Li Ran's reaction, Ah Qin thought he was rejecting her.
Her expression instantly turned somewhat crestfallen, and she murmured softly, "I'm sorry, Ah Qin was too impulsive. I should have realized that with my appearance, how could I possibly catch the Holy Son's attention..."
Thud!
Li Ran rapped her on the head, saying in an irritated tone, "While it's a dual cultivation technique, doesn't it also depend on the difference in cultivation levels between both parties? You're not even in the Foundation Establishment stage, and you want to cultivate with me recklessly? You're courting death?"
"Is that so?"
Ah Qin rubbed her head, revealing a smile.
"So the Holy Son wasn't rejecting me, but actually caring for me!"
Li Ran gave her a stern look, "Hurry up and put your clothes back on."
"Yes."
Ah Qin nodded happily.
Li Ran watched the glimpse of spring light that was accidentally revealed and couldn't help but feel a dryness in his throat.
Ah Qin was already a beauty, and after the transformation of the Charming Maiden Spirit Marrow Body, every move she made was filled with allure. Even Li Ran found it a bit hard to resist.
And this was just the beginning. As her cultivation progressed to higher realms, a single glance from her would be able to steal a person's heart and soul!
"Remember, don't tell anyone about this matter. Just focus on your cultivation," Li Ran reminded her.
Ah Qin clenched her small fist and said firmly, "I understand. Ah Qin will definitely strive to cultivate and hope to dual cultivate with the Holy Son as soon as possible!"
Li Ran shivered involuntarily.
If these words were to reach Leng Wuyan's ears, given her jealous nature... he might have to consider reincarnating.
"Alright, focus on your cultivation."
"Yes."
Ah Qin returned to her room, sat down cross-legged, and earnestly began practicing the Mysterious Luminous Scripture.
At this moment, the power of the Charming Maiden Spirit Marrow Body began to reveal itself.
As the technique circulated, a mysterious phenomenon appeared around Ah Qin, which seemed quite profound.
However, she paid it no mind and continued to diligently practice the technique.
For her, this was nothing more than a task from her master.
