Xie Yun began the second phase of teaching.
Xie Feng listened attentively.
Forest of Profound Seclusion, the two began the second phase of their studies.
"Young Master Xie, now you must run forward as fast as you can, use all your strength, and don't let me catch you within half a minute."
"You just need to hold on for half a minute, right?"
"Right!"
"Okay, I'll start running now."
Xie Feng spoke, he vanished like an arrow released from a bow in an instant.
Seeing this, Xie Yun wore a faint smile. He didn't rush to chase after them, but instead calmly murmured:
"Five...
"Four...
"Three...
"Two...
"One..."
As soon as they landed, a gentle breeze swept by, and Xie Yun's figure vanished without a trace.
Two seconds later!
He appeared at the end of the road Xie Feng was running on!
"I'm sorry, Young Master Xie, your speed is still too slow! I hope you can think carefully about what I just said! With your comprehension, I think you will understand and apply it soon."
Xie Yun's lips curled into a smile, his tone sincere.
They were both very polite and well-mannered.
Xie Feng: "..."
Why do I feel that having too much talent can sometimes be a bad thing? It's better to just explain things to yourself directly. Relying on enlightenment for everything and constantly having your brain working is too tiring!
But even if it's tiring, it's good to keep your mind active; at least you won't develop Alzheimer's disease too early.
Xie Feng leaned against a large tree and began to comprehend the Dao.
Fallen leaves drifted to the ground, only to be swept up by the wind and carried far away.
Xie Feng stared at the leaves, then his eyes suddenly lit up.
Maybe...
You can use external objects to give yourself a speed advantage!
This external object is the wind!
No!
besides!
Xie Feng's eyes flickered slightly, and he looked around again.
It can also be clouds! It can be air! It can be land! It can be everything!
He suddenly understood!
At this moment, under the ancient pine tree, snowflakes were falling. Two people sat back to back, their stools far apart, each leaving the other with a stubborn profile.
They each held a cup of tea in their hands.
Steam rose from the roof.
A moment of silence fell over the space.
But neither of them felt awkward at all. One sipped his tea elegantly, while the other aimlessly admired the vast snowscape around them.
"Cough, this snow is really heavy." Xie Ling coughed, trying to make conversation.
Kong Qiusu lowered his head and drank his tea, seemingly oblivious to everything else.
"No, you're so petty! I only misunderstood you and said a few unpleasant things back then, is it really necessary to hold a grudge until today? I admit my mistake and sincerely apologize!"
As Xie Ling spoke, she stood up abruptly and bowed twice to him.
As she was about to bow for the third time, Kong Qiusu's lips twitched.
Three bows—who are they for? Are they auspicious? Are they auspicious? Huh?!
But he only glanced at it and didn't say anything.
Xie Ling was speechless.
She deliberately wanted to bow three times to make him speak first.
But to everyone's surprise, Kong Qiusu was truly patient; he simply remained silent.
Xie Ling, of course, did not bow a third time.
She straightened up, shrugged, and for a moment seemed at a loss for what to do.
"You're my senior brother, and I don't want to have a bad relationship with you," Xie Ling said frankly. "I don't like to offend people, so tell me, how can we reconcile?"
Finally, Kong Qiusu slowly spoke, "Miss Xie, from the moment I sat down here, I haven't expressed a single word of dissatisfaction. It's all just your imagination, Miss Xie, and you've even imagined me as a petty and wicked person. As for what happened at the Xuanji Sect, it wasn't really a grudge between us, it was just a very ordinary chat, right?"
Kong Qiusu smiled and leisurely put down his teacup.
Previously, Xie Ling chased a cow to the Jade Pivot Sect. When he was carrying the cow and about to leave the mountain range, he encountered Kong Qiusu.
The two had a heated exchange.
That time, it ended with Xie Ling leaving Kong Qiusu Wordless.
"What? Normal conversation? Then why did you make sarcastic remarks to me first in Mist-Lost Mountain..." Xie Ling's voice trailed off.
"I'm getting revenge for the time you made sarcastic remarks about me!" Kong Qiusu said with a hint of self-righteousness.
Xie Ling was speechless!
"Sitting here, drinking hot tea, with snow falling, and someone beside me..." Kong Qiusu raised an eyebrow at her, emphasizing, "A mischievous friend, it's truly endless fun."
Xie Ling rolled her eyes, not wanting to say anything more.
After a while.
Kong Qiusu said, "I'm hungry."
Xie Ling said, "I'm hungry too, what can we do? My brothers haven't arrived yet, let's wait."
"I'm the kind of person who can't stand being hungry; when I'm hungry, I tend to say things in a more sarcastic and sarcastic way."
"You're the Great Emperor!"
"Does the Great Emperor have to lose the pleasure of eating?"
"Go cook."
"Won't."
"Then you can go hungry!"
"I'll give you money to do it, how about it?"
A slight smile appeared on Kong Qiusu's lips as he gently tapped his fingers on the table.
Xie Ling crossed her arms. "Do you think I'm that easy to please? I don't lack money, unless..."
Her gaze was fixed on Kong Qiusu's hands.
To be precise, it was the clearly visible veins on the back of his hand.
Kong Qiusu asked, "Unless what?"
"Let me give you acupuncture!" Xie Ling's eyes lit up like a wolf seeing a lamb.
Normally, when she wants to find someone to practice her medical skills, people avoid her like the plague. Now, finally, someone has come knocking on her door!
"I am very healthy."
"Don't worry, it won't be healthy once it gets in my hands!"
"???"
Upon hearing this, Kong Qiusu silently tucked his hands into his sleeves.
Something about this statement just doesn't feel right!
"Hunger or acupuncture, the choice is yours. By the way, I'm quite valuable; it would be a blessing for you to receive acupuncture."
Xie Ling said.
Kong Qiusu, unaware of his abilities, naively agreed.
Xie Ling glanced at it and calmly said, "Roll up your sleeves a bit, show your arms."
Kong Qiusu as he was told, but as he rolled up his sleeve halfway, he suddenly asked, still uneasy, "Wait, are you really a doctor?"
My younger brother says my medical skills are superb!
Xie Ling looked smug.
Hearing Xie Feng praise her so highly, Kong Qiusu was completely relieved.
My junior brother is always right about people!
Xie Ling twitched his fingers slightly, and a silver needle appeared from his fingertip, its tip gleaming with a sharp, cold light.
She held the silver needle between her fingers, pulled up Kong Qiusu's arm with one hand, found a spot with prominent veins, and inserted the needle into the flesh. A drop of bright red blood instantly appeared.
Xie Ling's lips twitched.
broken!
She quickly took out a white handkerchief, pretended to be calm, and placed it on Kong Qiusu's arm. The handkerchief absorbed the blood droplets.
Kong Qiusu stared at her. "Doctor, is drawing blood a sign of exceptional medical skill?"
"Your Blood Qi are too strong, so this kind of thing is bound to happen," Xie Ling casually made up.
Kong Qiusu nodded with a strange expression.
Xie Ling stabbed again, and it bled again!
Undeterred, I tried another injection, and it still bled!
How strange!
There were no problems with the money I gave to my younger brother and Luo Feng Fengzha before!
