A surge of warmth rose from his abdomen, spreading through all his limbs and bones. Li Fan instantly felt much more comfortable.
Especially the injury on his chest—under the effect of this warm current, the pain miraculously eased considerably in an instant.
"Senior Sister, what kind of medicine is this? It’s so effective..." Li Fan asked instinctively.
At the same time, some fragments of memory surfaced in his mind.
He and this Senior Sister Zhao were both from Changfeng Village, Daqing Mountain, and had known each other since childhood.
Half a year ago, a group of bandits attacked Changfeng Village, brutally slaughtering most of the villagers. Only he and Senior Sister Zhao were spared, as they happened to be playing outside at the time.
When they saw the smoke rising from the village and rushed back, they stumbled upon the bandits, who were just about to retreat with their loot.
Despite her young age, Senior Sister Zhao’s breathtaking beauty caught the attention of all the bandits.
At this critical moment, an immortal master happened to pass by. Upon seeing the bloodstained scene below and the two trembling children before the bandits, the immortal master instantly understood the situation. He killed all the bandits on the spot, saving Senior Sister Zhao and Li Fan.
Moreover, the immortal master saw that Senior Sister Zhao had extraordinary talent and decided to take her back to his sect.
However, Li Fan’s aptitude seemed mediocre and didn’t catch the immortal master’s eye. It was only after Senior Sister Zhao’s earnest pleas that the immortal master reluctantly agreed to take him along.
After flying for over ten days, the immortal master brought them back to the sect. What they saw were towering mountains surrounded by clouds and mist. From time to time, they could spot immortals flying between the peaks, leaving streaks of radiant light. Amid the sea of clouds, many majestic and awe-inspiring structures stood tall, exuding a divine and sacred aura.
The celestial scene left Senior Sister Zhao and Li Fan utterly speechless. From the conversations of the immortal disciples who had brought them, Li Fan learned the name of the sect: "Grand Dao Sect".
The Grand Dao Sect had nine branches and seventy-two peaks.
The main branch was always personally passed down by the successive sect leaders, while the other eight branches were managed by various elders.
The immortal master they thought so highly of was actually only a fourth-generation disciple of the Yuehua branch of the Grand Dao Sect, named Zhang Rong, with a cultivation at the Nascent Soul stage.
Under Zhang Rong’s guidance, they naturally joined the Yuehua branch and became outer sect disciples of the Grand Dao Sect, settling at Qingning Peak.
They were given a cultivation technique called
'Taiyuan One Qi Technique'.
Zhang Rong instructed them that as long as they mastered this technique, they could successfully advance to become inner sect disciples. From then on, they wouldn’t have to toil with menial chores and could focus on their cultivation. Their status in the sect, as well as the resources they could receive each month, would be vastly different.
She had no choice but to let it go.
But now, it seemed he had finally come to his senses.
Senior Sister Zhao began to carefully explain the technique to Li Fan.
"Brilliant, brilliant! I didn’t realize this sentence could be interpreted this way. Senior Sister, you’re so smart!" Li Fan praised continuously as he listened, his eyes gleaming with admiration.
As the day grew late, Senior Sister Zhao reluctantly stopped.
"My master instructed me to return before dark, so I have to go now!" she said carefully, afraid Li Fan would be displeased.
"The master’s orders come first. Senior Sister, you should go back. You can visit again when you have time," Li Fan said, nodding without the slightest hint of displeasure.
Senior Sister Zhao softly acknowledged and was about to leave when she realized that during their conversation, Li Fan had long since loosened his grip on her hand. Yet, for some reason, she had continued holding onto him.
Her face instantly flushed with heat, and fearing that Li Fan would notice, she hurriedly bid him farewell and left in a flustered rush.
Her heart raced, but she also felt a sense of joy, her steps much lighter as she walked away.
Meanwhile, Li Fan had already put aside the ambiguous moment between them.
He was entirely immersed in the mysteries of the Taiyuan One Qi Technique.
"So that’s how it is, so that’s how it is!" With Senior Sister Zhao’s guidance, all the difficulties he had encountered in practicing the technique were now resolved.
He had fully comprehended it.
"I’m not far from building my foundation!" The spiritual energy in his body flowed without any obstruction, as if it was innate.
He couldn’t help but feel immense joy.
"If only I had asked Senior Sister for advice earlier, I wouldn’t have wasted half a year!"
"How strange, why did I feel so ‘ashamed’ before?"
Li Fan shook his head, finding his previous self somewhat unreasonable.
