It was late at night.
Just as Lin Heng was about to lie down to sleep, he heard that familiar sigh again.
Lately, he has been hearing the same sigh repeatedly late at night, so he is quite familiar with it.
He had naturally already investigated with his divine sense.
The person who sighed was a student who already possessed the cultivation level of the sixth rank of the Martial Ancestor Realm.
Lin Heng had heard people call this person's name before, and knew that his name was Ren Rulong, and he was only eighteen years old this year!
At the age of eighteen, he had already reached the sixth rank of the Martial Ancestor Realm, which is definitely an extraordinary martial arts genius!
It should be noted that Lin Xuan, the eldest prince of the Chishui Kingdom, was only at the third rank of the Martial Ancestor Realm at the age of eighteen!
After all, not everyone receives the same treatment as Dongfang Yao!
Lin Heng was quite puzzled, unable to understand why Ren Rulong always came to his residence and sighed.
Under his divine sense, Ren Rulong often came over in the middle of the night and gazed at the stone house from afar.
Whenever Ren Rulong stared in this direction, his breathing became very unstable, and his eyes revealed not only hesitation but also hatred.
As usual, Ren Rulong eventually went to the Crescent Lake, facing the water, and stood there lost in thought.
Lin Heng's curiosity was piqued!
I've decided to talk to Ren Rulong!
Lin Heng guessed that Ren Rulong wouldn't tell him the truth, so he had to pretend!
So he put on the Ruyi Divine Robe!
Just as Lin Heng finished packing and was about to take action, he discovered that someone had already floated down and landed next to Ren Rulong.
That was a mysterious person.
The man was wearing a black hooded robe.
The hood of the black robe covered most of the man's face, with only his eyes and forehead visible.
The man sat down next to Ren Rulong almost silently, without Ren Rulong noticing him beforehand.
"Young man, your inner demons are rampant; your future is bleak!"
"Ah?!"
When Ren Rulong heard the voice, he realized there was someone else beside him and was inevitably startled!
"Senior is..."
Who I am is not important, please sit down!
That person seemed unfathomable.
Ren Rulong looked skeptical, and after a moment's hesitation, he reluctantly sat down again.
"Please, senior, teach me how to overcome my inner demons!"
Ren Rulong naturally knew that the Great Xia Divine Martial Institute was full of hidden talents and experts, so it wasn't surprising that he would encounter something like this.
He also believed that this mysterious master had no intention of harming him; otherwise, he would already be dead!
The one who tied the knot must untie it; a heart ailment requires a heart remedy.
The man's voice sounded very old, "I only know you have an inner demon, but I don't know what it is. If you can tell me the truth, then I have a way to break it!"
"This..."
Ren Rulong hesitated again.
Hesitation is a major taboo!
The man continued, "Is your inner demon related to the little prince from the Chishui Kingdom?"
"It seems you've been observing me for a while now!"
Ren Rulong gave a wry smile and said frankly, "That's right, he is the source of my inner demons!"
"He's only four years old and has only been at the Great Xia Divine Martial Institute for a year. How could he become your inner demon?"
"Well!"
Ren Rulong sighed again, "This matter begins with his marriage agreement with the Great Xia Imperial Clan!"
"In the past two years, I've found myself uncontrollably falling in love with Dongfang Yao!"
"Although she's a few years younger than me, I don't know why, but from the first moment I saw her, I was captivated by her and it's become increasingly difficult for me to extricate myself!"
Having overheard this with his divine sense, Lin Heng thought to himself, "Isn't this love at first sight?!"
That's normal!
Ren Rulong was a teenager, just beginning to experience romantic feelings, so it was perfectly normal for him to fall for a girl at that age!
In the past two years, Dongfang Yao, who is thirteen or fourteen years old, has improved her cultivation very quickly, so she actually looks about the same age as a sixteen or seventeen-year-old girl.
Youthful and beautiful, pure and noble!
There must be many students who like Dongfang Yao, and Ren Rulong is just one of them!
"I soon heard that Dongfang Yao and the Little Prince of Chishui were engaged, and that the Little Prince of Chishui's mother was the Goddess. At that time, I felt that I had no hope at all!"
"But later, the goddess ascended to the God Realm, and I also heard that Dongfang Yao didn't really approve of that marriage agreement, so I felt like I had a chance again!"
"To my utter surprise, the Great Xia Imperial Clan actually invited the Little Prince of Chishui to the Divine Martial Institute!"
"I know, this means the Great Xia Imperial Clan still recognizes that marriage agreement!"
"Over the past year, Dongfang Yao has always been friendly and cheerful whenever she meets the Little Prince of Chishui, never showing any signs of keeping him at arm's length. This has made me increasingly uneasy!"
"Gradually, I began to hate the Little Prince of Chishui. He shouldn't have been born, shouldn't have been engaged to Dongfang Yao, and shouldn't have come to the Great Xia Divine Martial Institute..."
"I know it's wrong, but I just can't control myself!"
"I even had the urge to storm into his house and kill him!"
"Senior, what should I do?"
Ren Rulong looked at the mysterious man, his clenched fists revealing his inner excitement.
At this moment, Lin Heng, who was at his residence, cursed inwardly, "What the hell is this?!"
Luckily you didn't impulsively barge into my place, otherwise you wouldn't be able to think about what to do, and the grass on your grave would be two meters high!
If you can't let go, there's only one way: find something else to distract yourself!
The mysterious man seemed to ponder for a while before replying.
"I tried it, and the results were terrible!"
Ren Rulong shook his head and asked again, "Does Senior have any good suggestions?"
The reason the methods you tried didn't work well is because they didn't have enough impact on you!
The mysterious man replied, "If you can continuously improve your cultivation level by leaps and bounds, your focus will naturally shift, your mood will improve, and you will become more confident!"
"I understand the principle, but if you want your cultivation to keep improving by leaps and bounds, you can't just talk about it!"
Ren Rulong said with a troubled expression.
"That's why I came!"
"Senior, do you mean to help me improve my cultivation level?"
"Um!"
The mysterious man nodded.
"I will forever remember your great kindness, senior!"
Ren Rulong immediately knelt down and kowtowed!
Get up!
The mysterious figure offered a helping hand, then took out a pill and handed it to Ren Rulong.
"This is a top-grade mystic pill called the Soul Cleansing Pill. It can purify your soul, greatly increase your soul power, and of course, help you suppress your inner demons!"
"Take this first, and I'll help you improve your skills after some time!"
Ren Rulong looked at the pill in his hand, his heart filled with joy, his hands trembling.
This expert is incredibly powerful and generous, casually bestowing upon a top-grade Xuan Dan!
With such a wise mentor by my side, I'm sure I can beat the Little Prince of Chishui!
