NOVEL NEXT chapter 227
227. The Young Master is So Impressive
“What?!”
Lin Nuo had developed a conditioned reflex and became fearful upon hearing the words “dual cultivation.”
Just dealing with one Li Ruoruo was enough trouble for him; his cultivation was likely limited by dual cultivation.
The villain practicing dual cultivation with the protagonist? The outcome was clear: both would rise, but the villain would rise to the heavens.
This was the law of the heavens, and there was no way to reverse it for now.
“It’s dual cultivation, like the balancing of Yin and Yang. We could even use the Phoenix Twin Swords together. If we practiced dual cultivation, we’d definitely progress rapidly, right?”
“Goodbye!”
Lin Nuo quickly stood up and fled in a flash.
“……”
Su Kexin puffed up her cheeks, holding her breath. This rotten Senior Brother, I was just casually saying it, did he have to react so strongly?
If he doesn’t agree, fine, but does he have to run away?
Did I move too fast?
Maybe so, but since Senior Brother agreed to use the Phoenix Twin Swords and train the Twin Sword Dance Technique, there will definitely be a day for dual cultivation.
Yes, there will be. Senior Brother may appear cold on the outside, but he is warm-hearted deep down. He just seems indifferent on the surface.
Maybe the gap between us is too big. If we practiced dual cultivation now, my body wouldn’t be able to handle it.
Or perhaps, Senior Brother still hopes that I can advance through my own efforts, step by step. Dual cultivation is a shortcut, and although advancement is good, it can foster a sense of dependency, which is ultimately not good.
Alright, alright, it was my own recklessness. The matter of dual cultivation should wait until I have made progress through my own efforts.
For some reason, after Senior Brother left, I no longer had the desire to eat him.
How strange.
Today’s practice is probably enough, it’s time to go back and rest.
…
The wind-like man with the wind spiritual root, Lin Villain, was frightened by Su Protagonist’s mention of dual cultivation and ran away. He ran and ran until he didn’t know where he was.
“Lost.”
Lin Nuo scratched his head and looked around. Damn, he really got lost.
New to this place, and it doesn’t have the east rising and west setting sun to judge direction like on the ground.
Should I ask an immortal?
No, I don’t really want to talk to them.
I’ll explore on my own, and if I can’t find my way, then I’ll ask someone. This Purple Peak Valley isn’t some primitive deep mountain, the potential danger is very low. It’s not like a huge beast will suddenly appear, right?
Even if there are immortal beasts here, they are managed. How could there be…
“Roar!”
Suddenly, a huge white tiger flew out of the grass and pounced directly at Lin Nuo.
“Damn.”
Agile Lin Nuo quickly moved to the side, dodging the white tiger’s pounce.
“This fat tiger… is even bigger than the sect master’s.”
Lin Nuo sized up the huge white tiger, its fierce gaze, sharp claws, as if one pounce would send Lin Nuo flying.
“Roar!!”
The white tiger pounced again, its sharp claws striking at Lin Nuo. Although the white tiger’s pounce was fast, Lin Nuo, being a wind man, could easily dodge it.
“Looks like I was too optimistic about this place, don’t they manage the immortal tigers?”
Lin Nuo was helpless. This white tiger had already regarded him as an outsider, wanting to pounce on him and then bite him crazily.
The white immortal tiger was high-level, mid to upper level in the heavenly rank. The rocks and branches it pounced on would be destroyed, leaving a big mark.
This white immortal tiger probably just entered Purple Peak Valley, still wild, its edges not yet smoothed, unwilling to follow the rules of Purple Peak Valley.
There was still some blood on its claws, probably from attacking other immortals. After all, there were quite a few injured immortals in Purple Peak Valley.
“Come.”
Lin Nuo beckoned with his fingertip, not planning to run and waste energy, directly ready to fight.
“Roar roar!”
The furious white tiger lunged again, but Lin Nuo deftly dodged it and slapped two talismans directly onto the white celestial tiger.
“Sleep for me.”
Lin Nuo chanted a spell, and in an instant, the white celestial tiger’s entire body became extremely heavy, as if something was pressing down on it. The ground beneath it sank into a large pit, rendering it completely immobile.
“Roar!!”
The white celestial tiger roared madly, but it was difficult to move. After a short while, its whole body became weak, its consciousness blurred, and its eyelids drooped.
The white celestial tiger lost consciousness and fell to the ground, and the supergravity field disappeared.
“Clumsy thing, what’s the use of brute force alone?”
Lin Nuo kicked the heavy white celestial tiger, which didn’t move, as it had already fallen into a coma.
In terms of beast control, he was an expert. Back in Fenghai Forest, he had easily killed a heavenly-level demon dragon with high-quality talismans combined with spells, easily subduing fierce beasts, even celestial beasts.
He could confidently say that he surpassed most immortals in beast control. These talismans were specially made by Lin Nuo to be used with spiritual methods.
This celestial tiger had good meat quality. In the wild, it would be a delicacy on the dining table.
“If you can’t even manage a celestial tiger, what can you immortals do?”
Lin Nuo mocked, thinking about how these immortals always talked about bringing peace and stability to the world, yet they couldn’t even tame a celestial tiger. It felt like a joke.
“The aura is right here, why did it suddenly disappear?”
A little white fox girl emerged from the distant forest, following the aura to find the white tiger, and suddenly saw Lin Nuo and the white celestial tiger ahead.
“Ah, young master, young master~! What are you doing here~!”
Li Ruo’er excitedly ran over, not expecting to see her young master here.
“I was just wandering around and came across this fat tiger. What’s the matter, you weren’t hired as a tiger keeper, were you? That would be too much.”
“No, just helping out. This celestial tiger is usually very well-behaved, but suddenly its temperament changed these past few days. The other immortals didn’t know what happened, so they asked me to communicate with it.”
Li Ruo’er laughed, her gaze returning to the fallen white celestial tiger. “Young master, you didn’t kill it, did you…?”
“I wish. I’d love to chop it up and make braised, boiled, steamed, and soup dishes out of it. It’s under a spell, in a coma, and will wake up later.”
Lin Nuo patted the white celestial tiger’s back, but the tiger didn’t move at all, indicating it had no consciousness, but it was still breathing.
Lin Nuo took the talismans off the white celestial tiger. It was better not to let those immortals see these talismans.
“It used to be very well-behaved?”
“Yes, I heard it was very well-behaved.”
“I thought it had just been brought back for training. The way it acted just now made me feel like it wanted to eat me.”
“After all, young master is an outsider. It even hurt the immortals who usually manage it, so it would definitely be fiercer towards outsiders. Young master, let’s wait for it to wake up.”
When Li Ruo’er came out, she had specially brought a clean long cloth, which she spread out on the ground and patted with her small hands.
“Young master, please sit~”
As expected of a maid, she was well-prepared.
“Stay away, so it won’t wake up and hurt you.”
Lin Nuo drew a large circle around the celestial tiger, placed a few talismans, and chanted a spell. The circle glowed faintly, trapping the celestial tiger.
“Young master is so amazing~!”
Li Ruo’er didn’t understand what Lin Nuo was doing, but she felt it was very impressive.
She had always been his little admirer.
