C35 (1/2)
For the next few days, Nanmen Guo'er continued to cultivate, stabilizing her strength on the Red Rank.
During this time, Yan Bai would come to sit for a while regardless of the situation. He would sit on the chair or lie on Nanmen Guo'er's bed, looking at his in such a relaxed manner that it was as if he was in his own home.
Nanmen Guo'er initially strongly opposed this, but it was a pity that this person was too thick-skinned and had no memory of what he said. Thus, she decided to just ignore him. Her principle was that as long as Yan Bai did not interfere with her business.
As for the 'can't enter the girl's room' or 'it's against etiquette', she had never cared about them. After all, they were all empty and could not save her life, so she didn't lose anything.
However, what made Nanmen Guo'er surprised was that Nanmen Yan hadn't come again since the last time and he hadn't caused trouble for her. Xiangyu heard that she was cultivating in seclusion and seemed to have received a gift from the current emperor. She also said that when she came out, she would successfully form a vortex of spiritual energy and become a martial artist.
In response to this, Nanmen Guo'er declined to comment. If Nanmen Yan'Er was unable to condense a Spiritual Qi Vortex even with the assistance of a Spiritual Artifact, then her title as the 'Genius of the Xi Men Empire' would be too hollow!
However, before he could even see Guo'er, he was stopped by Thousand Creations at the door. Mo Rufeng saw that Guo'er was currently cultivating and did not linger, he only said that he had time to come back, then he left. However, he took a few glances at Thousand Creations with a strange expression.
Apart from this, no one else bothered South Gate Fruit. After continuously cultivating for half a month, South Gate Fruit had benefited greatly. The originally light red spiritual energy had become denser as well.
”Bam!” The stone table cracked with a crack.
Nanmen Guo'er looked at the red halo on her right hand, and then looked at the broken stone table. She frowned, thinking that the Red Rank Spiritual Energy was too weak, and with this palm, she had split the stone table into several pieces.
”What? Not satisfied?” Seeing Nanmen Guo's frown, Yan Bai sat on the stone chair and smiled, thinking to himself, ”This girl's ambition is really big, she just cultivated for half a month and already raised her spiritual power to Red Stage Late Phase. Now it seems that she is not satisfied, if others were to find out about this, wouldn't she be shocked?”
Nanmen Guo'er withdrew the spiritual energy in her hand and spread it out. ”Not bad, I guess I'll make do with it for now. I've been cultivating a little too frequently lately, let's go out for a walk.” Cultivation required a painstaking effort, and doing nothing but boring cultivation was not good for one's strength, so he knew of this South Gate Fruit.
Hearing this, Yan Bai's eyes lit up. Even though she felt that he wouldn't be bored even if he stayed in his courtyard, wouldn't it be even more interesting if he went out for a walk? Thus, he immediately became interested and asked, ”Guo'er, where do you want to go?”
Nanmen Guo'er clapped her hands and said to Yan Bai, ”Wait.”
After that, she entered the room, and when she came out, she had changed into a man's outfit.
Because Nanmen Guo'er had a petite figure, she had changed into a capable man's attire. Her sleeves and trousers were tied up, and her waist was slender, making Nanmen Guo'er appear extremely thin. However, there was still a trace of heroic spirit on her young face due to her black hair being tied up.
However, Nanmen Guo'er's raised eyes and long eyelashes revealed a hint of a woman's charm. Charming and heroic spirit were two completely different things, but they cleverly fused together on Nanmen Guo'er's face. There was a certain charm that made people want to take a closer look.
Yan Bai looked at the South Gate Fruit'er's male attire, at that petite figure, and at that small yet cold face. He lightly tapped his palm with his folding fan and said with a smirk, ”Guo'er, this is …”
Yan Bai's voice was slightly deep, yet it was filled with magnetism. His tone carried laziness and pampering. It sounded extremely sexy, as if it alone could eat a person's heart whole.
Nanmen Guo'er's heart skipped a beat when she saw Yan Bai's appearance. It made her instantly feel uncomfortable, but it was only for a moment, and this feeling was ignored by her.
”Convenient, isn't it?” Nanmen Guo'er looked at her men's clothing and felt that it wasn't bad.
