Chapter 378: Unable to Do Anything…
by AshPurgatory2025It was somewhat beyond Jiang Qingshang’s expectations.
Jiang Qingshang did not expect her husband to choose a long spear.
But at the moment she saw her husband grip the long spear.
A black wooden long spear.
A light green Confucian scholar’s robe.
Strands of hair dancing as the mountain breeze blew.
Jiang Qingshang’s eyes also lit up.
It seemed as if her husband was meant to practice the spear; only practicing the spear was most suitable for him.
But for some reason.
Gradually.
Looking at her husband standing straight while holding the long spear, a sense of familiarity quietly emerged in Jiang Qingshang’s heart.
Had she… seen this somewhere before?
Why did she feel her husband looked so much like… “Senior Sister, what’s wrong?”
Seeing Jiang Qingshang staring at him, Lin Xun asked in doubt.
“It’s nothing.”
Jiang Qingshang shook off the strange thoughts in her mind.
“Have you decided on the long spear? If you chose the sword, I could provide you with a lot of help on the path of the Sword Dao. If it’s the long spear, I’m afraid you’ll have to figure it out yourself.”
“Yes, I’ll go with the long spear. I’m quite fond of practicing the spear.”
Lin Xun nodded.
“Alright then.”
Jiang Qingshang put away the other wooden weapons.
The wood used for these wooden weapons was all ‘Spirit-Nurturing Wood’.
As the name suggests, it has the effect of nurturing spiritual power and regulating Spiritual Veins.
Although its lethality was insufficient, it was definitely a first-grade Spiritual Artifact for daily cultivation.
“Now, I will teach you the Zilin Immortal Method. Remember, our Zilin Immortal Method must never be passed to outsiders.”
Walking up to Lin Xun, Jiang Qingshang extended her finger and lightly tapped his glabella.
After three breaths, Jiang Qingshang had imparted the entirety of the ‘Zilin Immortal Method’ to Lin Xun.
Then Jiang Qingshang squatted down and taught Yaya as well.
Lin Xun sensed the Zilin Immortal Method in his mind.
It had to be said, it truly deserved to be the cornerstone immortal method of a Holy Land.
This Zilin Immortal Method was not inferior to the Myriad Demon Mind-Cultivation Technique he practiced in any way.
Even the ‘Nine Spears’ he had created seemed like they could be slightly improved based on this Zilin Immortal Method.
Not only that.
The Zilin Immortal Method emphasized that ‘the myriad Daos are unrestrained and free’.
Simply put, the Zilin Immortal Method was highly adaptable!
Lin Xun felt he could use this immortal method as a foundation to create the ‘Zilin Nine Spears’.
But that was a story for another time; he would worry about it later.
However, Lin Xun always felt that getting someone else’s Zilin Immortal Method for free was quite bad.
Lin Xun wanted to repay her!
But the problem was, it seemed he couldn’t repay her for the time being.
He could only remember it secretly and see if he could return the favor when the time came.
Or perhaps he should secretly give her the Myriad Demon Mind-Cultivation Technique some other day?
After Jiang Qingshang taught Lin Xun and Yaya the complete Zilin Immortal Method, she naturally began to guide them in their cultivation.
All cultivation begins with sensing spiritual power and drawing it into the body.
However, Yaya was naturally capable of this process, so Jiang Qingshang let Yaya go play while she provided one-on-one tutoring for Lin Xun.
One-on-one tutoring was fine; Lin Xun didn’t think much of it.
But the problem was, why was this Jiang Qingshang always being so hands-on with him?
Didn’t you say you hated men?
Is it really okay for you to be this close to me?
“You must let the spiritual power circulate through your entire body.”
As Jiang Qingshang spoke, she pressed against Lin Xun’s back and touched his arm.
“Most importantly, reach the fingertips, release the spiritual power slightly, and feel its existence.”
After speaking, Jiang Qingshang held Lin Xun’s palm again.
To be honest.
If not for Jiang Qingshang’s serious expression, Lin Xun would have seriously suspected this Saintess was taking liberties with him.
“Finally, let the spiritual power gather at the Dantian in your lower abdomen. Do you know where the Dantian is? The Dantian is…”
Jiang Qingshang’s soft and delicate hand moved down along Lin Xun’s belly.
Just as Jiang Qingshang was about to touch his lower abdomen, Lin Xun didn’t dare hide his skills anymore and directly emitted spiritual power that had perfectly completed a Grand Circulation! Then he hurriedly took a step back and bowed:
“Thank you for your guidance, Senior Sister. Pei has already learned it.”
If he didn’t learn it now, Lin Xun didn’t know where Jiang Qingshang’s hand would end up.
This feeling was very strange.
Why did he feel like he was cheating on Qinger?
And the person was even Qinger’s best friend.
This was just ridiculous.
“Well, it’s good that you’ve learned it. As expected, my eyes didn’t deceive me; you are indeed quite talented.”
Not having touched Lin Xun’s lower abdomen, Jiang Qingshang felt a bit unhappy.
Really, why is my husband’s talent so good?
There was no need for him to learn so quickly; he could have just taken it slow.
Of course, Jiang Qingshang couldn’t possibly say this out loud.
But in the girl’s eyes, it was only a matter of time anyway.
“Thank you for the praise, Senior Sister.”
Lin Xun bowed again in return.
How could he not be talented?
If he weren’t talented, he’d probably be felt up completely by her…
“Alright, let me check how your spiritual power is circulating now.”
Perhaps feeling like she hadn’t touched him enough, Jiang Qingshang stepped forward again.
“Actually, Senior Sister, I feel like there aren’t any major issues.” Lin Xun took a step back.
“No! As your Senior Sister, I must give you a proper check-up!”
“Senior Sister, there’s really no need.”
“Since you are already my Junior Brother, I must be responsible for you!”
“No… Senior Sister, listen to me… Senior Sister, wait… Senior Sister!”
Jiang Qingshang bound Lin Xun with Sword Qi and approached step by step.
Lin Xun didn’t know whether to break the Sword Qi or not.
Finally, Lin Xun could only close his eyes.
“Qinger… I feel like I’m no longer pure… But, I really didn’t do it willingly.”
Feeling those long, slender, and smooth hands touching him all over, Lin Xun silently shed two lines of tears in his heart.
Meanwhile, a hundred miles away from Zilin Holy Land.
In a small town affiliated with Zilin Holy Land, a pair of twin sisters stayed at an inn, gazing back at the road they had come from.
Sitting beside them was a woman.
All along the way, she had escorted the twin sisters to Qianye Continent.
It was also she who stopped them every time the twin sisters tried to run away.
Now, the spiritual power in their bodies was sealed, and they couldn’t leave at all.
“Sister Long Qin, please unblock our spiritual apertures; we won’t run.”
The elder sister, Long Leier, spoke softly, her trembling and weak voice like a summer flower about to wither, making one’s heart ache.
“No.” Long Qin shook her head.
“But Father…” The younger sister, Long Yaner’s eyes turned red.
“If both Your Highnesses return, the Holy Lord will fall into true difficulty.”
“But…”
“There are no ‘buts’.”
Long Qin slowly opened her eyes and looked out the window.
“For both Your Highnesses, Dragon Cry Holy Land is already a place of death…”
“And we… can do nothing.”
