Chapter 397: Blooming Flowers Must Break

Translator: Henyee Translations , Editor. Henyee Translations

In the blink of an eye, another two months passed.

The chaos in Gray Stone City intensified. The patrols under the demon Shi Hu became more and more stringent in their investigations of the Jing family. Almost every few days, patrols would check every residence, inn, restaurant, and other places. Especially the residences of the humans, they did not let go of any place.

Shen Ping was also disturbed dozens of times when he was cultivating. This made him not enter the Strange Beast Gate again. At the same time, he had the thought of leaving this place. Although Gray Stone City was not sealed, no human cultivator could leave at all in the dark. They were all intercepted.

After knowing this, he could not help but feel a little helpless. He was still implicated by the Jing siblings.

Of course, Shen Ping also knew that the matter of the Jing siblings was actually caused by the rapid decline in the overall strength and status of the human race. If the human race was at its peak, no matter how strong the demon Shi Hu was, he would not dare to do such a thing.

He stood up and left the room. Looking at Jing Huilan and Jing Yan kneeling on the ground again, he pondered. In the past two months, the two of them were indeed very sincere.

Now that the situation in Gray Stone City was like this, Shen Ping thought about it again and again and decided to keep them first. After all, the divination skill that Jing Huilan was good at was indeed what he needed. Whether it was in the underground palace’s Heaven Ascension Hall or in the future when he went to a place where the immortal Dao was prosperous, this skill was very

useful.

“Fellow Daoists of the Jing family, I can take you in temporarily, but I can’t help with your family’s matters. However, if you’re in danger, I can help. Of course, the prerequisite for taking you in is the condition that Fellow Daoist Jing mentioned previously.” Shen Ping said calmly.

The meaning in his words was very clear. He did not hide anything at all. In fact, at his current cultivation realm, there was no need for him to be shy about some things.

Jing Huilan couldn’t help but purse her thin red lips. Her fair cheeks were slightly red, and her earlobes were even redder. However, she still immediately said respectfully, “Thank you for taking me in, Senior Shen. I will serve you

with all my heart.”

Jing Yan, the elder brother beside him, secretly clenched his fists, but he did not forget what his sister had said previously, so he did not say anything. He only secretly blamed himself for being weak and unable to protect his sister.

“In that case, come in.” Shen Ping said casually and returned to the room.

Jing Huilan stood up. The elder brother looked at his sister and wanted to say something but hesitated. Jing Huilan’s lips moved as she transmitted her voice, “This is my choice. Brother, please believe me!”

Jing Yan sighed. Soon, as the door closed, he gritted his teeth and turned to leave.

Shen Ping sat on the wooden chair and looked at Jing Huilan, who was standing at the door. She was wearing a green gauze dress and had a slender waist. Although her figure was petite and exquisite, the curve of her clothes was like a pavilion that rose from the ground, making people admire her.

“Come closer.” He said.

Jing Huilan’s face turned even redder. The shyness in the corners of her eyes could no longer be concealed. She bit her red lips and walked to Shen Ping.

He sniffed the fragrance that was getting stronger. Shen Ping subconsciously thought to himself that this was an elegant white orchid fragrance. The smell was very faint, but it was refreshing. If he had not studied spices carefully, he would definitely not have been able to tell if it was a body fragrance or a spice.

“Closer.”

Jing Huilan’s body trembled slightly. She forced herself to move forward again until she could clearly feel the warm aura emitted by the figure in front of her eyes. Then, a voice sounded in her ears again. “I wonder how many years Fellow Daoist Jing has cultivated until now?”

She tugged at her sleeve and replied weakly, “S-Senior Shen, I have been cultivating for nearly two hundred years.”

To be able to cultivate to the late-stage of the Golden Core realm in nearly 200 years was definitely considered an extremely talented cultivator in the cultivation world. If she had the opportunity, she might be able to condense her Nascent Soul in about 300 years.

A smile appeared on Shen Ping’s face. He reached out and held that weak and boneless fair hand. Feeling the trembling of her skin, he was unmoved and pulled hard. Immediately, a fragrance rushed into his arms. “Fellow Daoist Jing, let me see how outstanding your 200-year-old spiritual root is now.” His physique had been strengthened by the blood of strange beasts, the power of strange beasts, and medicinal pills. He could easily tear apart her magical clothes, especially her clothes. In his hands, they were just like paper.

As his palm touched the warm skin, Jing Huilan’s entire body could not help but tense up. Her legs straightened, but her voice was even weaker. “S-Semor Shen, please take pity on me…”

The Vajra Body, which had not felt any tight warmth for a long time, broke through the layers of obstacles and rushed into the clouds. Flowers bloom to the point of breaking, and it must be broken. Don’t wait to break them in vain when there are no flowers.

The nearly 200-year-old flower bud was budding. Since Shen Ping had made a choice, he would not hesitate anymore. However, this flower was the first time it had seen rain. He did not torture it a few times. It only stopped after being irrigated by rain and dew.

He looked at Jing Huilan, who was about to fall apart. He did not look guilty at all. This was because he knew very well that although he said that he would take them in, in fact, if they were really discovered by Shi Hu of the demon race, he would still have to make a move. Shi Hu of the demon race was a Void Refinement Realm great demon. Even a Void Refinement Realm human would have to temporarily avoid him. Such a price was very big for any cultivator.

Jing Huilan also knew this. Hence, she bit the corner of her lips and experienced the transformation of her body.

-We will be Dao companions in the future. Before you, I have another wife and concubines. I’ll introduce them to you in the future.” Shen Ping’s tone was calm.

When Jing Huilan heard this, her face lit up. She believed in her divination technique, so she understood what he meant. After recovering some strength, she hurriedly said gratefully, “Thank you, thank you, Senior Shen!” “Just call me Fellow Daoist Shen in the future.” With that, He walked straight into the quiet room. After sitting down cross-legged, he looked at the opened virtual interface.

indeed a new virtual box was added. His gaze swept over. There was a divinator’s display in one of the columns. The Beast Scripture involved the Hundred Arts of the Immortal Dao. Naturally, there were also scriptures on the path of divination.

However, he was currently in the Abyss of Supreme Darkness and could no longer enter the Nine Provinces Tower to train. Fortunately, he could contact his master. Therefore, in the following period of time, he spent days and nights with Jing Huilan, constantly increasing his divination skills. At the same time, he cultivated the basic scripture of deducing the Beast Scripture.

Lian Xuejin did not reject Shen Ping’s wish to cultivate the divination technique. Instead, he agreed very much. “Every room in the Heaven Ascension Hall is unknown. If you can study the path of divination, it will be of great help to you.”

This was also the main reason why Shen Ping chose to take in the Jing siblings.

Five years passed in the blink of an eye.

For Golden Core cultivators, five years was only an insignificant period in their 500 years of life. It was even more so for Gray Stone City, which had experienced tens of thousands of years. Almost nothing had changed. The only change was that the situation in the city had become even worse for the human race. Shi Hu, the demon race, had been unable to find the Jing siblings for a long time and had almost turned the entire city upside down.

Originally, under such strict investigation, even if the Jing siblings had special methods, they would eventually be exposed. However, not long after the flowers were broken, Shen Ping was lucky to obtain a special beast spirit treasure in the room of the Strange Beast Gate’s Heaven Ascension Hall.

This beast spirit treasure was a jade pendant. It could change a cultivator’s aura to a certain extent and could cover living beings within a few feet.

Shen Ping directly used it to change the aura of himself and the Jing siblings and simulated them as demon cultivators. That was why he could avoid the divine sense of Shi Hu, a Void Refinement Realm cultivator of the demon race, and the strict investigation of the guards..
