Ya Fei (Seeking Recommendations)

"Qingyun! Qingyun!"

A small crowd had gathered beside the little bed, old and young, men and women alike, while an elderly figure sat at the bedside, his face looking somewhat haggard.

No matter how the old man called out, he could not wake the young man lying on the bed, sunk in a deep sleep.

"Kun Shen Uncle, don't worry. This child Qingyun has always had great luck since he was little. Maybe he just overdid his training and fell asleep."

Standing behind the old man was Xiao Family patriarch Xiao Zhan. He rested one hand on Fourth Elder's shoulder and comforted him softly.

"Perhaps!" Fourth Elder sighed, worry showing between his brows. This was already the second day.

They still could not find any cause, nor did they know when Lin Qingyun would wake up.

Though he could sense that Lin Qingyun was in very good condition right now, and even the Dou Qi within his body was growing every moment.

But...

None of that mattered. He only wanted Lin Qingyun to wake up right now.

"Fourth Elder, don't worry too much. Brother Yun will definitely be fine!"

A young man stepped forward, a trace of maturity and steadiness beyond his age in his clear eyes.

Xiao Yan glanced at the figure lying on the bed and let out a deep sigh. His mind sank inward as he asked, "Teacher, can you tell what's going on with Brother Yun?"

"It's very strange. His soul is in good condition, and it doesn't look like the result of overtraining. Unless I can enter his body, I won't be able to know exactly what happened."

Very soon, a voice sounded by his ear. It was Medicine Elder's voice.

"Even Teacher doesn't know?" Xiao Yan was somewhat astonished. He knew that although his teacher loved to brag at times, his true strength was probably far above that so-called Pill King Gu He.

If even his teacher had no solution, then in the entire Jia Ma Empire, there probably was not anyone who could figure out the reason.

"Not necessarily. This kid Qingyun is very unusual. I see the Dou Qi within him increasing nonstop. Maybe this is also a kind of cultivation method, though this kind of cultivation method is truly unheard of!" Soon, Medicine Elder's voice sounded by Xiao Yan's ear again.

"Perhaps!"

Xiao Yan nodded slightly and looked at Lin Qingyun once more, but he did not stay long.

To him, hurrying up with his training was the most important thing right now.

But just as he walked out the door, he saw a graceful, beautiful figure in the distance hurrying over.

Before long, that figure appeared before his eyes.

Xiao Yan was slightly startled.

"Miss Ya Fei..."

"Crimson Gold Fruit

Grows in volcanic lands and contains the powers of both Gold and Fire attributes.

Can be used for..."

Lin Qingyun strolled through the starry sky, casually scooped up a star, memorized the Medicinal Herbs recorded within, then put it back.

Repeating this again and again, with mechanical movements, Lin Qingyun could no longer remember how many times he had done it. He only knew that behind him were all the stars he had thrown out, as if they had gathered into a Star Sea.

"Bodhi Fruit

Grows on the Bodhi Tree. It flowers once every ten thousand years, bears fruit once every ten thousand years, and takes ten thousand years to mature.

Can be used for..."

"Hmm! The main Medicinal Herb of the Bodhi Immortal Transformation Pill is Bodhi Fruit, while the remaining Medicinal Herbs are Sarira Flower, Golden Zen Wood, Immortal Transformation Grass, Heavenly Dragon Pearl... and so on. But if Vajra Fruit is used to replace Golden Zen Wood, the medicinal effect doesn't decrease but instead increases..."

"And the Heavenly Dragon Pearl is also needed in the Yin Yang Dragon Soul Pill, but the Heavenly Dragon Pearl is extremely firm and yang, while the Ice Dragon Blood Fruit paired with it is an extremely cold item, yet it's very difficult to maintain the balance between their medicinal effects. This greatly increases the difficulty of refining the pill. If it were replaced with..."

Before long, Lin Qingyun seemed to have made a new discovery and muttered to himself.

And along with his new discovery, it would be absorbed by the Dragonless Heart Method and transformed into power.

Not even Lin Qingyun knew that at this moment, an excited smile remained on his face, as if he had become obsessed.

Xuan Lao, dressed in white, stood in the distance. He quietly watched Lin Qingyun, a gratified smile appearing on his face from time to time.

Perhaps even he did not know why he appeared from time to time, or why he could not help observing from time to time.

"He already knows to discover things himself and find where the problem lies?"

Lin Qingyun's soft mutters did not escape Xuan Lao. In those cold eyes, devoid of any color or emotion, there was a faint ripple.

"I hope he can bring me a few more surprises!"

Xuan Lao murmured.

With a whoosh, his figure vanished from where he stood.

"It's you, little brother Xiao Yan!"

The woman, who had originally seemed rather anxious, also stopped. She looked the young man before her up and down, then suddenly teased him.

Xiao Yan's expression turned a little helpless. He was extremely resistant to the address "little brother Xiao Yan," but under the oppressive might of a certain big shot, he had no choice but to accept it.

As for this woman before him, who looked like a bewitching spirit, Xiao Yan did not dare look straight at her. He silently recited in his heart, This is Brother Yun's type, then hurriedly pulled some distance away and said with a serious expression, "Miss Ya Fei, may I ask what brings you here?"

"Can't I come if there's nothing? Little brother Xiao Yan!" Ya Fei narrowed her somewhat long eyes, her red lips curving slightly as she looked at Xiao Yan with a trace of allure.

"Of course not!" Xiao Yan waved his hands repeatedly and laughed dryly a few times.

"But I know a certain someone and Qingyun are good brothers. Such a big thing happened, so why wasn't I notified?" Ya Fei narrowed her eyes, her gaze becoming extremely dangerous.

"This... this..." Xiao Yan laughed dryly a few times. He could not very well say that he felt there was no need, so he had not gone to notify her.

"Forget it! Go do what you need to do. I'll go in and have a look!" Ya Fei withdrew the foxy expression on her face and said blandly.

"Then, Miss Ya Fei, I'll take my leave first!"

Xiao Yan also let out a breath of relief, but he did not want to keep staying. Before this bewitching woman, it seemed he might betray himself at any moment.

Hmph, the only one in my heart is Xun'er!

Xiao Yan thought inwardly.

"Heh heh, Xiao Yanzi, beautiful women are rare. Are you really not moved?"

Suddenly, Medicine Elder's improper voice sounded by his ear again.

"Teacher, stop teasing me. Also, why do you have to call me Xiao Yanzi?"

Xiao Yan rolled his eyes and said helplessly.

"Heh heh, I think this way of calling you is pretty good. Or do you want me to call you Yan'er? I don't mind having one more son!" Medicine Elder chuckled.

"Uh, Teacher, you should just call me Xiao Yanzi." Xiao Yan said. He suddenly felt that the title Xiao Yanzi was actually quite good. At least...

"Haha, speaking of which, that girl is so beautiful. Are you really not moved?" Medicine Elder said in an extremely tempting tone.

"Truly, not moved." Xiao Yan said with great firmness.

"Really? Back in my day! I was also a dashing and handsome young man. Alas! Why is my..."

Before Medicine Elder could finish, Xiao Yan ruthlessly interrupted him.

"Teacher, you're getting off topic."

Ahem, this old monk has a magic treasure called the Universe in the Sleeve. Where do recommendation tickets think they can run? Take this!

I originally didn't want to write this chapter, but this author realized that if I directly wrote about the protagonist completing the three-month trial, it would seem very random, so there had to be a transitional chapter in between. This chapter is a bit short, only exactly 2,000 words. I hope everyone won't mind.
