Female lead: No, it's me again??

Chapter 452 Crying

Xie Changling, clutching his backside and grimacing as he stood up, looked even more aggrieved. "Half a month! A whole half a month! Your master was refining pills from Chenshi (7-9 AM) until Zishi (11 PM-1 AM)!"

Is she a puppet?

"Is mental energy inexhaustible?!"

Xie Changling initially thought it would be over in three or four days, but damn it, the thing inside lasted for half a month!

What kind of monster is this?!

Even the one with the strongest alchemy talent in the Holy Land couldn't maintain such high-intensity alchemy for half a month straight!

But the master who was the only one who succeeded did it!

You could say she's diligent on her own, but she also has a few less diligent students on her side. All she does is cultivate, except when she's eating, which makes him feel embarrassed to slack off!

They were also 'forced' to roll up.

He collapsed.

"That's it!"

Fu Siluo nodded repeatedly, her face full of resentment, and said, "I haven't seen her leave the house for half a month!"

Gu Zhu nodded silently to the side.

Yan Nanfei looked at the three people who seemed to have suffered a great injustice, and tilted his head slightly, "Huh?"

This made Fu Siluo feel like she had found someone to confide in, and she began a series of outpourings.

"Senior Sister, don't you think Master is acting very strangely? Don't you also think Master is trying to spur us to cultivate harder?"

Yan Nanfei glanced at her and poured cold water on her without any mercy, "You're overthinking it. With your cultivation progress, you don't even need the master to urge you on. You're not qualified."

Xie Changling couldn't hold back and burst out laughing.

Fu Siluo: ".......??"

Is there such a thing as burying people?

Gu Zhu: "......"

Fu Siluo slumped her shoulders and sighed, "My senior sister doesn't love me anymore. My heart is ice-cold."

She then asked, still unwilling to give up, "So, what did you just say, senior sister?"

"I'm just marveling that my master is still the same as before."

Yan Nanfei explained,

"Whether it's alchemy or cultivation, Master can be said to be extremely focused. When we were still together, Master's day was very simple: alchemy during the day and practical combat at night."

"This habit has been maintained to this day."

Xie Changling, Fu Siluo, and the other two looked at each other in bewilderment.

Gu Zhu muttered, "Aren't you going to sleep?"

Fu Siluo nodded repeatedly; she wanted to know too.

"No need to sleep. For cultivators, the process of absorbing spiritual energy can nourish themselves and allow their spiritual sea to rest. There won't be any problems if they don't sleep."

"You'd be better off using that time to cultivate."

Seeing her senior sister's matter-of-fact expression, Fu Siluo was dumbfounded, and at the same time, she came to an unbelievable conclusion: "Senior sister, don't tell us you're as shrewd as the master!"

Yan Nanfei didn't think there was anything wrong with this method of cultivation, nor did he hide his thoughts from them.

"What's this?"

have what?

Is this something a human being would say?!

Fu Siluo broke down, on the verge of tears, and said, "Senior Sister, why didn't you ask us to do this?"

Yan Nanfei said, "You are still young, and high-intensity training methods are not suitable for you. Moreover, you are playful, so such demands would be counterproductive."

Xie Changling fell silent. "Luo Yi, aren't you tired?"

It's hard to imagine what kind of life she lived before.

tired?

Yan Nanfei lowered his eyes, "When you see the person you want to save die in front of you to save you, you won't feel tired anymore."

They'll just be like us.

The three noticed that Luo Yi's mood was off, exchanged glances, and Fu Siluo whispered, "Senior sister, haven't you ever saved your friends before?"

This is the first time that the eldest sister has revealed a part of her past.

She couldn't save the person she wanted to save, and that person even died while trying to save her. How heartbroken must the senior sister have been at that time?

Yan Nanfei composed himself and said, "It's nothing, you guys go have breakfast first."

Fu Siluo weakly replied, "Oh."

It was noon when Feng Siyue finished refining the pills.

"Master, here is what you requested."

Inside the room, an ice-blue flower, enveloped in transparent bubbles and still glistening with dew, floats in the air.

It looks somewhat like a lily, with transparent, round buds at the tips of its petals, and its leaves are light blue.

“Master, as you instructed, I brought back everything within a three-meter radius of the Wuwang Flower, including everything underground, and that’s how I discovered this.”

Yan Nanfei pulled out a black box the size of a head.

Feng Siyue accepted it.

The box was icy cold. When opened, icy mist escaped, and on the emerald green leaves lay a round, fist-sized block of ice, within which was a pure white, irregularly shaped stone.

A stone with life.

"This is exactly what I wanted."

Is this what it is?

Yan Nanfei asked curiously, "Master, what is this?"

Feng Siyue picked up the ice block and examined it closely.

“There is a legend in Snow Crystal Prefecture that every thousand years, when the ice-attribute spiritual energy of the Tianshan Mountains reaches its peak, the ancient species sleeping in the Heavenly Lake will briefly awaken.”

"It degenerates into an egg, which flows along the Tianchi branch to the Wuwang Flower to incubate itself. It goes through a cycle of a thousand years, and once it successfully hatches, its soul power will reach a higher level."

"The Wuwang Flower blooms every five hundred years, and the thousand-year-old Wuwang Flower is a great tonic for nourishing the soul and spiritual consciousness. Therefore, it is often targeted by that thing."
