Those who weren't bright joined the Baoyan Martial Arts Center with the intention to learn a set of profound martial techniques to protect themselves. With the Longmen examination right around the corner, a good set of martial techniques would undoubtedly greatly enhance their scores and grades.
As for smart people like Guo Zheng and Li Lei, although the latter had joined a sect, having more skills was always beneficial.
They had witnessed how Xu Lingjun had used his body to forcefully break the two big teeth of the bone-splitting lizard. Besides, it wasn't that the beast was unafraid of death and wouldn't let go. It was obvious that its teeth had been stuck because the fellow's skin was too thick.
That being said, they also wanted such thick skin.
Martial techniques were used in killing demonic beasts, but for defense, cultivation techniques were needed!
What kind of cultivation technique could produce such thick skin?
Therefore, early the next morning, the two of them very considerately brought breakfast with them as well as numerous gifts.
They upheld their conscience to not ridicule Xu Lingjun after they saw how Wang Qingya turned around and went back to Xu Lingjun's room to sleep after she opened the door for them, which was followed by Xu Lingjun coming out of his room with sleepy eyes.
Without a doubt, Xu Lingjun was now their daddy.
Then... They learned about the source of Xu Lingjun's cultivation technique!
It was given Xu Lingjun did not hide it from his two best friends, but he couldn't just say everything so directly. He could only say that he was fated with the cultivation technique and that one could not cultivate it if one was not fated with it. So far, he was the only one who was fated with the cultivation technique, so the possibility of the two of them being fated with it was not very high.
But his friends did not listen. After inquiring about the old beggar's attire, they immediately rushed out to look for him.
Before they left, Guo Zheng gave Xu Lingjun a box of condoms with a mischievous smile, indicating that Xu Lingjun was still young and should not be tied down by a child so early on in life.
As for Xu Lingjun's words about having to be fated with the cultivation technique?
The two of them did not take it to heart.
What a joke. Look at the two of them, one was the future star of the sect, and the other a super-rich kid with millions of dollars worth. Compared to them, what else did Xu Lingjun have other than his handsome face and his strength?
A person like him should cry in front of a rich lady and say that he doesn't want to work hard anymore, then accept the rich lady's love and pity. Why did he have to work hard himself?
Xu Lingjun tried to advise them to give up, but they didn't listen, so he could only let them be.
Anyway, even if they fell for the trick, they would only lose ten dollars, so it was nothing. Besides, if they got any secret manuals, they might be useful to him.
He had been secretly looking for the old beggar before, but it was a pity that he couldn't find him.
Thinking of this, Xu Lingjun yawned and went back to sleep.
As for that box of condoms, he had wanted to throw it away, but he remembered sister Yaya, who had occupied half of his bed.
Teacher Wang.
Well... how should he put it, nothing happened last night.
She had said that she wasn't feeling safe. No matter how brainless he was, Xu Lingjun would never go against her wishes at this time.
But she had been drooling in her sleep. Was she really not thinking about his feelings?
Forget it, just to be safe.
He had held himself back this time, but what about next time?
He carefully put the box of condoms into his pocket and gave up on going back to his room. He just took a nap on the sofa.
It was not until the sun was high in the sky that Wang Qingya finally got up.
She had had a good night's sleep. She had thought that she would have nightmares at night, but she did not expect that her little brother's embrace was so warm. It was as warm as with her father's arms when she was lying in them while still a child.
She saw Xu Lingjun napping on the sofa in the living room with a small blue box hanging from his pocket.
She pursed her lips and smiled, then covered him with the blanket before she changed and went to the supermarket to buy some groceries.
When Xu Lingjun woke up, lunch was almost ready.
In the kitchen, the girl was wearing an apron with her long hair draped over her shoulders. The thin apron band outlined her slender waist, and her legs looked especially slender.
She turned around and smiled gently at him, saying, "Go brush your teeth, it's almost time for lunch."
Xu Lingjun nodded.
He went to the bathroom.
When he was back, there was already a sumptuous table of dishes in the dining room.
The two of them sat together and ate.
Wang Qingya would occasionally put food into Xu Lingjun's bowl.
Her expression was natural. The shyness before she went to bed last night had disappeared after she woke up.
Although nothing had happened, it was like something had happened...
Xu Lingjun vaguely understood that no matter what the relationship between the two of them was, when an adult was willing to sleep with you on her own initiative, even if the two of you didn't do anything, her heart was completely open to you.
Even they hadn't done it, it didn't matter.
In the past, perhaps sister Yaya only felt a sense of responsibility and guilt towards him, as well as the feelings a sister had for her brother...
But now, she should truly be willing to accept the marriage agreement between the two of them, which was a joke between their parents.
Although for him...
It was actually quite good too.
Watching Wang Qingya put food into his bowl, and how she would naturally take a piece of tissue to wipe the corners of his mouth from time to time, Xu Lingjun realized, she was treating him like a child.
That being said, being treated like a child was sometimes a rare happiness for an adult.
After lunch, Wang Qingya went to the kitchen to clean up.
Not long after Xu Lingjun digested his food, there was a knock on the door.
Xu Lingjun ran to open the door.
Outside the door, Guo Xu was all smiles. When he saw Xu Lingjun, his smile became even brighter.
Behind him, a white-haired middle-aged man wearing a green robe was all smiles as well. When he noticed Xu Lingjun's gaze, he smiled and said, "Little friend Xu, we meet again."
"You... You are..." Xu Lingjun recalled the figure he had seen in the virtual reality device yesterday and said in surprise, "Sect Master Mingri?"
He could not help but suck in a breath of cold air.
Who would have thought that the dignified sect master of the Riyueming Sect would appear in front of him at this moment?
To be able to become the sect master, his strength was probably one of the best in the entire Great Xia Empire. In other words, this white-haired man in front of him had to be at least an expert in the Origin-returning Tier or even the Fortune Tier!
"Xu Lingjun, the sect master has come to visit you personally!" Ji Roufeng had a sweet smile on her face as she said, "My Master is also here."
The sect master of the Riyueming Sect had come personally?
Xu Lingjun looked at Guo Xu in surprise.
Guo Xu blinked at him, and a smile appeared in his eyes... he mouthed, "Kid, you've struck gold."
After inviting the few people in, Wang Qingya poured some tea and then naturally sat beside Xu Lingjun. She smiled gently at Ji Roufeng.
Ji Roufeng also smiled back.
Ji Roufeng's master, Liu Peiyun, couldn't help but look at her disciple in surprise, feeling that the scene was strange. Their relationship seemed to be a little complicated.
However, looking at Xu Lingjun's face, she suddenly understood something.
With his face, his relationship with the women around him would probably not be any simple. It was just that she was old. If she was twenty years younger, Feng'er wouldn't even stand a chance.
Liu Peiyun's gaze swept over and over Xu Lingjun's fair and handsome face and she could not help but be distracted.
Sect Master Mingri scrutinized Xu Lingjun's body a few times.
His heart was immediately filled with satisfaction. Hmm, this child has quite the elegance of his youth.
To think they had almost missed out on such a genius. It was probably because Feng'er was too young so she hadn't done a good enough job.
Mingri picked up his tea and took a sip.
He smiled and said, "Little friend Xu, I came specially to thank you. If it wasn't for you, I'm afraid that due to the negligence of the Riyueming Sect, a large number of innocent students would have died... This was our mistake. To think we almost allowed Liu Yun, that narrow-minded girl, to become a disciple of the Riyueming Sect. Now that I think about it, I still feel a lingering fear."
"It's nothing, I was just lucky," When Xu Lingjun recalled what happened yesterday, he sighed. "If this happened again, I wouldn't have the confidence to escape from the mouth of the bone-splitting lizard again. I was just lucky, too lucky."
The smile on Guo Xu's face immediately became forced.
No confidence in escaping?
"Pray tell how the bone-splitting lizard will bite you to death when it can't even break through your defense?" Guo Xu ridiculed in his heart.
