Douluo: The soul skills are too abstract, Tang San burst into tears!.

In a relatively open space, she saw Lu Lingfeng. Lu Lingfeng was sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed, emitting a faint light, and was obviously practicing to improve his soul power.

Pei Xijun was delighted and stood quietly aside, not wanting to disturb Lu Lingfeng's practice.

But after a while, Lu Lingfeng seemed to be aware of her presence and slowly opened his eyes.

"Xijun? Why are you here?"

Lu Lingfeng's voice was particularly clear in the silent night.

When he saw Pei Xijun was actually beside him, his heart was filled with emotion.

Under the night sky, the atmosphere became a little ambiguous.

Pei Xijun smiled slightly and raised the lantern in his hand. He replied gently:
"I came here to collect herbs, but I didn't expect to see you practicing. Some special herbs are easier to find in the forest at night. How is your practice going?"

Lu Lingfeng stood up and stretched his muscles.

"I have gained something. The spiritual energy in the forest is more abundant at night, which is very helpful for my cultivation. However, it is too dangerous for you to collect herbs alone at night."

Pei Xijun shook his head gently:
"I will be careful. And I am not unprepared. I brought some self-defense medicines and tools. But you, don't rush into training. You must take care of your body."

Lu Lingfeng looked at Pei Xijun, his eyes full of tenderness:

"Don't worry, I know. Did you pick any good herbs?"

Pei Xijun opened the medicine basket, displayed the herbs inside, and said with a little confusion:

"Some of these herbs are very rare. By the way, have you finished your training? Why don't you accompany me to collect herbs?"

Lu Lingfeng looked at Pei Xijun's expectant eyes, and felt warm in his heart. He smiled and nodded:

"Okay, then I'll go with you to pick herbs."

A brilliant smile suddenly bloomed on Pei Xijun's face, like the brightest star in the night sky.

She raised the lantern higher to illuminate the way ahead.

Lu Lingfeng followed closely beside her, scanning the surroundings vigilantly.

Pei Xijun was humming a little tune as he walked, feeling particularly happy.

From time to time, she turned her head to look at Lu Lingfeng, her eyes full of joy.

Lu Lingfeng felt her gaze and responded with a gentle smile.

Sudden.

Pei Xijun's foot was tripped by a vine hidden under the fallen leaves.

"oops!"

She screamed, lost her balance and fell forward.

Lu Lingfeng was quick-witted and reached out instantly, hugging her waist.

Pei Xijun felt dizzy and completely out of control of his body.

Then, he fell into a warm and solid embrace.

Her heartbeat suddenly quickened and her cheeks instantly became hot.

She raised her head and met Lu Lingfeng's concerned gaze.

Lu Lingfeng's eyes were full of tension. He hugged Pei Xijun's waist tightly, as if he was afraid that she would be hurt.

"Xijun, are you okay?"

He asked softly, his voice trembling with nervousness.

Pei Xijun shook his head and said in a panic:
"Yeah, I'm fine."

She tried to break free from Lu Lingfeng's arms, but found her body was soft and she had no strength at all.

Lu Lingfeng did not let her go immediately, but lowered his head and carefully checked whether she was injured.

His hair gently brushed against Pei Xijun's cheek, bringing an itchy feeling.

Pei Xijun's heart beat faster and faster. She could even hear her own heartbeat beating in rhythm.

"Are you really not hurt? Are you scratched anywhere?"

Lu Lingfeng asked again, his tone full of concern.

Pei Xijun blushed and shook his head again:

"It's really okay, you can let me go."

Only then did Lu Lingfeng realize that he was still hugging Pei Xijun tightly, and a blush appeared on his face.

He gently let go of Pei Xijun, touched his head awkwardly and said:

"Um... I'm sorry, I was too worried about you just now." Pei Xijun straightened his clothes and did not dare to look into Lu Lingfeng's eyes.

"Yeah, that's okay, thank you."

she whispered.

The atmosphere between them became somewhat subtle, and an ambiguous atmosphere permeated the air.

Lu Lingfeng cleared his throat, trying to break the awkward situation.

"Let's keep going, be careful."

He said.

Pei Xijun nodded and followed him silently.

They continued walking through the deep forest.

however.

The scene just now has been lingering in Pei Xijun's mind.

She secretly glanced at Lu Lingfeng from time to time, and an inexplicable emotion surged in her heart.

Lu Lingfeng also sensed something strange about Pei Xijun, and he felt a little uneasy in his heart as well.

He tried to stay calm and focus on his surroundings.

But whenever he saw Pei Xijun's beautiful figure, an irresistible impulse would surge in his heart.

"Xijun, are you tired? Why don't we take a rest for a while?"

Lu Lingfeng said suddenly.

Pei Xijun shook his head:
"I'm not tired, let's keep going."

It’s not that she didn’t want to stop, but she was afraid that once she stopped, the ambiguous atmosphere would make her even more overwhelmed.

Lu Lingfeng saw what she was thinking. He smiled and said nothing more.

They continued walking forward, and soon they came to a stream, where the water was gurgling and gleaming silver in the moonlight.

Pei Xijun was attracted by the beautiful scenery. She walked to the stream, squatted down, and gently touched the water with her hand.

The stream water was cool and comfortable, making her feel particularly happy.

Lu Lingfeng stood behind her and looked at her quietly.

His eyes were full of tenderness and love, and he felt that Pei Xijun was the most beautiful woman in the world.

“This creek is so beautiful.”

Pei Xijun said softly.

Lu Lingfeng nodded:
"Yeah, it's beautiful. Just like you."

His voice was very low, but Pei Xijun still heard it.

Her cheeks turned red again and she didn't know how to respond.

"Let's continue looking for medicine."

Pei Xijun said with a red face.

The two of them continued walking, and the fallen leaves under their feet made a rustling sound.

Pei Xijun walked while carefully observing the surrounding vegetation, looking for those precious herbs.

Lu Lingfeng would occasionally gently remind her to pay attention to the stones or branches under her feet to prevent her from falling again.

"Look, there's a purpleleaf grass over there!"

Pei Xijun suddenly said excitedly, pointing his finger at a bush not far away.

In the dark green grass, a light purple leaf looks particularly dazzling under the moonlight.

She walked over quickly, squatted down, carefully dug the purple leaf grass out of the soil, and put it into the medicine basket.

Lu Lingfeng stood aside, looking at her focused expression, his eyes full of admiration.

"This purple leaf grass is a rare and good medicinal material. It can be used to refine many precious pills."

Pei Xijun raised his head and explained to Lu Lingfeng.

Lu Lingfeng nodded slightly:
“Your knowledge of herbs is truly profound.”

Pei Xijun smiled:

"I have been interested in herbal medicine since I was a child, and I have been studying and researching it over the years." (End of this chapter)
