Afterward, Shi Huang gave him a few more pointers on regulating his breathing for the Primordial Demon Luoshen True Explanation. Seeing that Lin Sheng had committed each one to memory, he stayed no longer, called Jin Shi over, and left alongside him.
The courtyard gate creaked shut. Silence returned to the courtyard, leaving only Lin Sheng and Chi Lian standing there.
Chi Lian leisurely tidied the jade cups on the stone table, yet kept stealing glances at Lin Sheng, her shifting eyes filled with infatuation.
Only after putting everything away did she approach Lin Sheng with tiny steps, her skirt brushing lightly across the ground, her soft voice carrying an indescribable allure.
"Junior Brother, you really do hide your abilities well. Even after activating his Demonic Body, Senior Brother Jin Shi couldn't gain the slightest advantage over you. If word gets out, who knows how many jaws will hit the floor?"
She tilted her head slightly, gently twisting the corner of her clothes between her fingertips, and put on a pitiful expression.
"You're progressing so quickly now, Junior Brother. In a little while, I'm afraid even I'll be left far behind. If someone bullies me in the future, you must remember to stand up for your senior sister."
As though he had heard nothing, Lin Sheng gazed at the lines of the fire-refining formation in the courtyard, unconsciously rubbing the edge of his sleeve. His thoughts had already settled on the crucial points of the Primordial Demon Luoshen True Explanation.
Only after a moment did he give a bland "Mm" in acknowledgment. He understood that if he showed even a little interest in this senior sister, who exuded seduction from head to toe, she would be extremely difficult to shake off.
Seeing his indifferent manner, Chi Lian was not annoyed.
