Free Web NovelChapter 352: Chapter 352: Unreasonable
For some reason, Luo Feng’s intuition told him that Lin Yun was the one who could help Caiyi.
Luo Feng had naturally tried many ways to solve Caiyi’s problem, even paying a great price to have Saints from the Central Domain examine her.
But the answer he received left him utterly disappointed. Saints were divided into the Earth Saint Realm and the Celestial Saint Realm. The Saints Luo Feng could afford to invite were only at the Earth Saint Realm, yet even they were helpless in the face of Caiyi’s condition.
According to the conjecture of these Earth Saints, finding a solution would require the intervention of a Celestial Saint.
But how could it be so easy to meet a Celestial Saint? Across the entire Celestial Spirit Continent, every Celestial Saint was a Great Power as elusive as a Divine Dragon—here one moment, gone the next. They weren’t people you could meet just by wishing it.
After leaving Luo Feng, Caiyi grumbled incessantly all the way back. In her eyes, Luo Feng was an irresponsible senior brother, especially when it came to his philandering. She had lost count of how many times she’d cursed him for it, but it was as if Luo Feng never heard her; he just carried on as always.
’Men are all garbage. Senior Brother is like this, so his disciple can’t be any good either.’ In her foul mood, Caiyi’s resentment extended to include Lin Yun.
Arriving at the door to Lin Yun’s room, Caiyi pouted and kicked it open.
Though Caiyi was Luo Feng’s junior sister, she was only in her thirties. Having spent the last twenty years rarely leaving the Flawless Palace, she still had the personality of a young girl. Of course, for an expert at the Celestial Spirit Realm, thirty-odd years was but a blink of an eye.
"Are you dead yet? If not, get up and drink your medicine." As the door was suddenly kicked open, Lin Yun, still lying in bed, had yet to grasp the situation when he heard Caiyi’s irritable shout.
Seeing her angry expression, Lin Yun was puzzled. ’She was fine just a moment ago. How could going out for a bit change her so completely? I haven’t done anything to provoke her.’
"Thank you." Deciding to be the gentleman, Lin Yun didn’t bicker with her. He offered a faint smile and thanked her.
But his courtesy was lost on the fuming Caiyi, who shot back, "You don’t have to thank me. Do you think I want to be taking care of you? Just hurry up and get better."
A gentleman doesn’t bicker with a lady, but that had its limits. If she continued to be this unreasonable, Lin Yun wouldn’t bother being polite.
Case in point: hearing Caiyi’s retort, the smile vanished from Lin Yun’s face. His tone turned cold. "Just leave it there. I’ll drink it myself. If there’s nothing else, please leave. I need to rest."
Lin Yun’s attitude was cold. Caiyi, who was already fuming, snorted and left the room, muttering, "Fine, I’m going! You think I want to be here?"
After Caiyi left, Lin Yun didn’t get up to drink the medicine. He knew his body best. Since it had been reconstructed, its regenerative abilities were so powerful they shocked even him.
Such grievous injuries were already mostly healed in less than a day. He estimated he’d be fully recovered by tomorrow at the latest.
’This reconstructed body really is powerful. Its regenerative abilities alone are astonishing.’
Now alone in the room, he got up and stretched a little. Aside from some pain in the most severely injured spots, the rest of him felt completely fine.
He glanced at the still-slumbering Little Ape. ’I wonder why he has to sleep for days every time he has a breakthrough.’
"I wonder how strong he’ll be when he wakes up this time," Lin Yun mused with a smile, looking at Little Ape.
Having recovered significantly, Lin Yun spent the night sitting cross-legged on his bed. Since he had broken through six Realms in a row, his main priority was to familiarize himself with the sudden, massive increase in his power.
Because he hadn’t advanced one layer at a time, but had instead leaped through six Realms at once, his control over his newfound strength was still clumsy and needed practice.
This was only possible because of his reconstructed body. Anyone else who broke through six Realms in a row would have had their foundation collapse long ago. Who else but Lin Yun could advance so rapidly and still have an unshakably solid foundation?
A silent night passed. By the next morning, the injuries on Lin Yun’s body were almost completely healed. This speed of recovery left even Lin Yun dumbfounded.
He went out into the courtyard early in the morning. Luo Feng’s residence was indeed quite pleasant. Just outside his door was a garden with rockeries, a fish pond, and a small pavilion. The beautiful surroundings instantly put him at ease.
He began practicing a set of Tiger Roar Fist, a form he hadn’t used in a long time. A deep, tiger-like roar echoed through the small courtyard. Despite the long break, he wasn’t the least bit rusty. In fact, his movements were more fluid than ever, each punch carrying the resounding roar of a great tiger.
He was only halfway through his set, just getting into the rhythm, when Caiyi’s sharp voice suddenly rang out from the courtyard entrance. "What is wrong with you so early in the morning?! Are you trying to keep people from sleeping?"
Hearing her reprimand, Lin Yun stopped and looked at her in confusion. ’Ever since she returned yesterday, it’s like I owe her money. She hasn’t said a single pleasant thing to me.’
"Did I do something to offend you?" Lin Yun asked.
At his words, Caiyi sneered, "Hmph. Men are all garbage. You’re just like your master—cut from the same bad cloth. Let me tell you, while you’re living here, you’d better follow the rules. Or else."
Caiyi’s words left Lin Yun completely baffled. ’Rules? "Bad cloth"? What is all this nonsense?’
"’What a crazy woman,’ he muttered. Not wanting to deal with her any longer, Lin Yun turned to head back to his room."
Despite not being a dedicated cultivator, Caiyi was still a Celestial Spirit Realm expert. Lin Yun’s mutter was quiet, but she heard it clearly.
In an instant, she took a single step, her petite frame flashing in front of Lin Yun to block his path. Seeing this, Lin Yun’s eyes narrowed. ’I can’t match that speed.’ But before he had time to dwell on it, Caiyi’s furious shout erupted.
"Who are you calling a crazy woman? I knew it! Not a single man in this world is any good! Always eating from the bowl while looking at the pot! It’s disgusting!" Caiyi raged.
Not wanting to spend another second with her, Lin Yun thought, ’Has this woman lost her mind? I haven’t done anything to provoke her. What is she on about?’
He walked silently toward his room, Caiyi’s curses following him from behind. freёwebnovel.com
"Hmph, you wretched man! You deserve to be alone forever! No woman in her right mind would ever like a man like you..."
His face dark, Lin Yun entered his room and slammed the door shut.
