Young Master, Don't Show Off - Chapter 189
[Chapter 189 Each Has Its Own Opportunity]
Lin Xiu did not even consider giving Lingyin the opportunity to go to the polar ice cave.
Although practicing in the ice cave is useful for the ice magic, he has other abilities. While ensuring the speed of practice, the secret of multiple abilities cannot be known to others, so he is more suitable for practicing alone. If everything goes
well, Lingyin should be able to be promoted to the earth level before the next year’s competition.
After leaving the School of Magic, he first went to the Zhao family and brought Zhao Lingjun back.
If she stayed longer, the Zhao family would have been suspicious.
At night, Lin Xiu let Caiyi drink brown sugar water, and after watching her fall asleep, he left the wedding residence.
Lin Xiu had just left, Zhao Lingjun’s room, she slowly opened her eyes and breathed a sigh of relief.
She was thinking at this moment, should she also go out to practice? If she
continued to stay here, it would be very inconvenient for everyone…
At this time, another mansion.
Since Lin Xiu and Caiyi got married, only Zhao Lingyin and Qin Wan lived here.
The two of them didn’t communicate much on weekdays, but they got along well, forming a relationship that was neither intimate nor distant.
Tonight, the moonlight was bright, the sky was full of stars, and the breeze was blowing. Qin Wan sat in the yard to admire the moon, while Zhao Lingyin leaned against the door of the room, looking ahead, not knowing what she was thinking.
At a certain moment, Zhao Lingyin came back to her senses and said to Qin Wan, “In a few days, I will go on a long trip, and it may take several months to come back.”
Although the two of them were not friends, they had lived together for so long that she felt it necessary to tell Qin Wan.
Qin Wan just hummed, indicating that she knew.
Zhao Lingyin was silent for a while, and suddenly asked Qin Wan: “You said, if a man is very good to a woman and always gives her precious things, what does this mean?”
Qin Wan glanced at her and said: “If this woman is not his mother, sister, or younger sister, it means that he likes her.”
Zhao Lingyin said: “But he has a wife and concubine…”
Qin Wan said: “So what, men in the world are not like this, they will tell you that their hearts are broken into many pieces, and each piece likes different people…”
Zhao Lingyin thought about it, and then said: “What if the woman doesn’t like him?”
Qin Wan glanced at her again and asked: “Do you really not like him?”
Zhao Lingyin didn’t know.
Because I didn’t know, I asked Qin Wan.
“I’m not talking about me.” Zhao Lingyin argued with a guilty conscience, and asked Qin Wan again: “How can I know whether I like someone?” Qin
Wan said lightly: “When you ask this question, you actually have the answer in your heart.”
Zhao Lingyin asked in confusion: “What answer?”
Qin Wan said: “When I asked you that question just now, who were you thinking about?”
Zhao Lingyin trembled.
“No, I didn’t miss anyone.”
She hurried back to the room, closed the door, leaned against it, and stared blankly ahead.
Did she really like him?
Impossible, she had always regarded him as her brother-in-law and a family member.
When did her feelings for him change? Zhao Lingyin didn’t know. Perhaps it was the moment when her sister ran back to find her on the night of their wedding…
…
When Lin Xiu came to the house, he found that the door was closed, so he jumped in from the wall and said to Qin Wan in the yard: “I haven’t seen you for a few days. Have you missed me?”
Qin Wan glanced at him and walked towards the room with her waist.
She might not have missed him, but her body certainly did.
In Qin Wan’s room, she lay on the bed. Lin Xiu’s hand gently pressed on her waist through her clothes. Qin Wan closed her eyes, with a look of enjoyment on her face, and said: “Remember to calculate the day next time. I have been in pain for a day today…”
Lin Xiu said: “I will come here every night in the future.”
Although he was reluctant to leave Cai Yi’s gentle place, he really couldn’t go on like this.
In the past, the night was his time to practice martial arts, but now Lin Xiu has not practiced martial arts for a long time.
Zhao Lingjun is at the bridal chamber, so whatever he does is under his awareness. Comparatively speaking, he feels freer here.
Qin Wan lay comfortably on the bed. At one point, she suddenly sighed, “I hope I won’t be a woman in my next life.”
Lin Xiu laughed and said, “You’d better be a woman. If you were a man, I don’t know how many girls would fall into your hands.”
Even Lin Xiu had to admit that she had too many tricks. If she were a man, she could easily become a sea king.
Few girls could withstand her tricks.
It’s a pity that she only has the ability to pick up girls, but she herself is also a girl.
Qin Wan opened her eyes and said, “Like you?”
Lin Xiu’s hand left her body and said, “I haven’t harmed many girls, but if you feel that these days every month are really uncomfortable, I have a way to help you avoid this pain. At least in ten months, you will never feel this pain again…”
Qin Wan thought about it and said, “This is a good idea. Otherwise, can you help me?”
If you make such a joke with other girls, they will either blush shyly or scold and beat them. Qin Wan really doesn’t fall for it at all. Lin Xiu admitted that he was controlled by her.
He left Qin Wan’s room, flew out of the city invisibly, and practiced all the strange arts. As his abilities increased, the time spent was also increasing. If his abilities were more, it would probably not be enough to squeeze out time to practice at night.
When it was almost dawn, Lin Xiu returned to the house and slept for less than an hour, then went to the strange arts academy with Lingyin.
Today, after finishing the dual cultivation with Princess Minghe, she said to Lin Xiu: “In two days, I will also leave the capital and will be back for a long time. Starting tomorrow, we will not need to practice dual cultivation for the time being.”
Lin Xiu asked in confusion: “Where are you going?”
Princess Minghe said: “I will go
to Fusang to practice for a while.” After Lin Xiu asked her, he knew that she was the same as Lingyin. This was all arranged by the court and the academy. However, Lingyin went to the polar ice cave, and she was going to the active volcano in Fusang.
Lingyin is suitable for practicing in extremely cold places, while she is suitable for practicing in extremely hot places.
Although Fusang is a small country, there are many active volcanoes within its territory. These volcanoes are located in Fusang, but they are actually controlled by the five dynasties. The fire ability users are the most among all the magicians, but the number of volcanoes is limited. If she is not the princess of Daxia, it is difficult to get such an opportunity.
The court seems to want to raise their cultivation to the ground level before the big competition, so it gave them such an opportunity.
Originally, the two had no hope of participating in this competition, but since it was discovered that people with ice and fire abilities could practice dual cultivation, their cultivation has advanced by leaps and bounds, and the court has also increased the resources invested in them.
Princess Minghe said, “But you don’t have to worry. After I leave, the academy will find someone else to practice dual cultivation with you.”
Lin Xiu waved his hand and said, “No, wait until you come back.”
In fact, in a few days, he also planned to leave the capital and go to Jiangnan with Caiyi, which would be considered a honeymoon trip for the two of them. She hadn’t been back for many years, and Lin Xiu also wanted to see her and the imperial concubine’s hometown.
Princess Minghe glanced at Lin Xiu and felt a little satisfied.
Although he was fickle about Zhao Lingjun, he was quite loyal to her.
The two of them had practiced together for so long, and they already had some tacit understanding. If she was given someone else to practice dual cultivation, she would feel uncomfortable.
At noon, Lin Xiu returned to the new house and found Li Baizhang sitting in the yard.
Seeing Lin Xiu coming back, he stood up and said to Lin Xiu: “I’m here to tell you that I’m going out for a while, and it may take several months to come back.”
Lin Xiu asked: “You are not going out to practice, are you? Where are you going?”
Li Baizhang asked in confusion: “To Java, how do you know I’m going out to practice?”
Java is an island country on the sea south of Daxia. It has a small land area and is very weak, but for some reason, this island country often has thunderstorms all year round, and it has the name of “Thunder Capital”.
It is the best place to practice the power of thunder. Obviously, Java cannot keep this kind of treasure land. For a long time, the Great You Dynasty made it a vassal state. Later, after negotiations among the five major dynasties and the exchange of interests, the Great You Dynasty made concessions and agreed to let people from the other countries go to Java Island to practice, but the number of places is still very limited.
In essence, this country is still under the control of the Great You Dynasty.
Lin Xiu had known about this place for a long time, but firstly, he had no chance to leave the capital, and secondly, his strength was too weak. Although the island was small, there were many strong men stationed there by the Great You Dynasty, and no one could sneak in there to practice without being discovered.
In fact, there were also some places in Daxia where thunderstorms often occurred, but the frequency was much less than that of Java, and they were already occupied by some big families or some strong men, so it was not the turn of others.
Li Baizhang had the opportunity to go to Java to practice every once in a while, and Lin Xiu could only try his luck. When he could practice, it all depended on God’s will.
Lingyin, Princess Minghe, Li Baizhang, and the few people around him had their own opportunities. I think some of the seeded players in next year’s competition should also have similar arrangements.
The court still wanted to achieve good enough results in next year’s competition, so that in the next three years, the quota for going to the polar ice cave, Fuso volcano, and Java Lei Island would not be one, but two, three, or more.
Li Baizhang sighed, “Originally, the quota this time was not mine. It was my mother who fought for it for me from my father. Peipei and I have finally made the current progress, and now we have to be separated for a few months. Sigh…”
Lin Xiu put her hands on his shoulders, patted them heavily, looked at him seriously, and said, “Promise me that you will listen to your mother more in the future and do whatever she tells you to do…”
