Chapter 41: I Have You

In fact, Qin Yi really wanted to say to her again, "Please have some self-respect."

As a young girl, aren't you ashamed to run into a man's room alone?

But he also understood that Ming He probably hadn't even considered such things in her heart. Two stars hung in the sky, two big trees stood facing each other, that was all.

He walked in slowly and asked, "Fairy, do you have something to tell me?"

Ming He turned her head and glanced at him. "I am not a fairy. You called me Fellow Daoist before, why did it become fairy now?"

Qin Yi said, "You are too beautiful. Whether I call you Daoist or Fellow Daoist, it feels awkward."

Ming He shook her head slightly. "This is what you failed to understand, and the reason why you protected the snake demon?"

"Perhaps."

"The corpse worms in Zhangjiazhuang, didn't you witness them yourself?"

"Knowing is easier than doing."

Ming He didn't say anything more to him and continued to turn her head to look at the half of the divine talisman, as if there was something very attractive to her there.

Qin Yi knowingly asked, "What is the fairy looking at?"

"This talisman... where did you learn it?"

"My master, Perfected Being Mu Feng, travels the world, and I don't know where he learned it."

Liu Su almost couldn't catch her breath.

Ming He didn't know whether to believe it or not, but she said, "This talisman is extremely profound. It is not a rigid delineation of existing methods, but a unique expression of wisdom, a self-expression. Every stroke and line contains profound mysteries, changing the principles into a palm-sized space, playing with the heavens and the earth in the palm of one's hand, making an Eight Grade talisman that even someone without magical powers can control. The creator of this talisman is truly remarkable. This realm is probably already beyond formlessness, surpassing me by more than a hundred times."

As Qin Yi listened, he took a piece of cloth and wiped the dirt off the front end of the wolf tooth club like a lackey.

He knew the club was amazing, but he didn't expect it to be this amazing. It turns out that instead of teaching him to memorize textbooks, he created a textbook himself... Maybe the alchemy he practiced before was the same, no wonder he could use it without any magical powers.

"But..." Ming He murmured to herself, as if talking to herself, "this kind of thinking in the talisman is so unique... just like the formation in the backyard, it's also... "

Qin Yi was taken aback. "How is it?"

Ming He whispered, "I always feel that it is very different from the conventional methods now. The patterns are more complex, trying to maximize the closeness to the source. This kind of thinking... is like the ancient methods seen in some relics, which are no longer used now."

Liu Su was also stunned and fell into contemplation.

Qin Yi was very concerned about this matter and asked, "Fairy, are you saying that this kind of thinking is no longer keeping up with the times?"

"The way of heaven moves forward. In the mortal world, farming methods have changed for countless generations in less than a thousand years, not to mention the cultivation methods that have been around for countless tens of thousands of years. Apart from some forbidden techniques, it is beyond doubt that the current methods surpass the ancient ones in general."

Qin Yi could feel Liu Su's anger, a feeling of wanting to explode. He held the cloth tighter and broke out in a cold sweat.

But then Ming He said again, "However, these ancient ways of thinking also have their own merits. Many aspects of them have great reference value and can help confirm gains and losses, comprehend the source... I wonder if Fellow Daoist Qin can give me a complete talisman, and if there is a complete system, Ming He will definitely repay the favor."

Liu Su, disregarding the danger of being discovered, became furious. "Don't give it to her! If she thinks she's surpassed the ancient ways, then let her! If she's so amazing, why does she need my talisman?"

Qin Yi was sweating profusely, saying, "My master has said that the teachings should not be passed on to others. Please forgive me, Fairy."

Ming He shook her head with regret and said, "The various sects in the world have such deep-seated prejudices. But I have no right to ridicule others. The Central Heaven Divine Watchtower's methods cannot be leaked either... I have overstepped my boundaries with this proposal."

After speaking, she turned and walked towards the backyard. Qin Yi was a little stunned. It should have been easy for her to snatch the talisman, so why did she give up?

This state of mind is true cultivation...

Liu Su continued to curse, "A female cultivator, dressed in a flashy Daoist robe, pretending to cultivate... I... mmm..."

But Qin Yi pressed her into the blanket and urgently whispered, "Hold it in. Wait until she leaves before cursing. Didn't you say that fluctuations in soul power might be detected? Are you trying to get us killed?"

Liu Su snorted and managed to calm down a bit. Qin Yi, with a guilty conscience, left the backyard and saw Ming He standing by the wooden sword, observing the formation.

"What an extraordinary formation," Ming He sighed softly. "Although it is just a supplementary sword, it can be divided into two, then three, layer upon layer, with the power to kill demons and humans alike. It is clearly my own sword, but if I were to recklessly enter this formation, I would be in a sorry state... Fellow Daoist's knowledge is truly remarkable."

Qin Yi didn't know if Liu Su inside the blanket heard it, but it would be best if she did, as it might help calm her down.

While worrying about Liu Su, Qin Yi heard Ming He say, "This place of yours seems quite enlightening. I wonder if I could stay here for a few days?"

Qin Yi almost burst into tears and said, "Please have some self-restraint, Fairy."

Ming He, who had always been calm, finally showed some impatience. "Fellow Daoist is too concerned about appearances, bound by gender, and has a vulgar mindset... Your heart is impure, and your cultivation is not clear. You don't seem like a cultivator at all."

Qin Yi retorted angrily, "If you're not concerned about appearances, then give me a hug!"

"That's a different matter," Ming He replied calmly without getting angry. "This place of yours is not a solitary room. Clearly, there are multiple entrances and exits, enough to accommodate guests without interfering with each other. Cultivators should have pure hearts, but why are they always thinking about those vulgar things?"

You finally said that word. Qin Yi tried to dodge the topic, saying, "I've already told you before, I haven't cultivated at all. I'm not a cultivator."

Suddenly, Ming He said, "In other words, the Perfected Being who gave you the wooden talisman only taught you minor techniques and didn't pass on the true methods. In that case... would you be willing to cultivate with me?"

Qin Yi was dumbfounded. His first reaction was to go into the room and hold Liu Su down on the bed, or else it might explode.

But the bed was quiet, and Liu Su didn't explode.

Qin Yi breathed a sigh of relief and said conscientiously, "My master has already passed on the true methods, but I am still tainted by the mortal world and have not yet begun cultivation. I understand your good intentions, Fairy."

Ming He stared at him for a while, sighed lightly, and said, "You are very suitable for cultivation. The entanglements of this mundane world are a pity. "

Qin Yi did feel her goodwill and pondered for a moment before saying, "This humble abode is not suitable for accommodating guests, but you are welcome to visit this place anytime."

Ming He nodded, not insisting, bowed slightly, and left gracefully.

Qin Yi slumped his shoulders and felt exhausted.

So many things happened today, and I feel mentally drained...

He staggered back to the bedside and Liu Su muttered, "Why didn't you learn from her? You actually want to cultivate immortality. You even said you wanted to seek immortality like Li Qingjun... Ming He's methods are better than mine, and she definitely won't leave any backdoors for you. Besides, she's so beautiful that you drool over her, and she looks at you differently. You might kill two birds with one stone, achieving both Dao Fruit and personal benefits."

Qin Yi lifted the blanket, gently stroked the handle of the rod, and whispered, "I have you, and that's enough. I will learn that inner alchemy technique tonight."

Finally, Liu Su fell silent.
