Stepping on the demon door, the witch becomes the strongest.

Chapter 144: Sad Sister Lin
At night, in the hotel room.

Lin Ning suddenly woke up from the bed, feeling that her forearm was still a little sore.

Maybe it’s because I rubbed the captain’s back for too long in the hot spring... Humph, it’s all the captain’s fault!
I've been thinking about practicing more all day long. Now that we've finally finished the secret realm, can't we take a break?

She got up, put on her hotel slippers, and went to the bathroom.

Passing by Zhao Yuanzhen's bed, Lin Ning accidentally tripped over the bed leg and fell onto her bed because the light was not on.

Um, empty?

She reached into the quilt and felt around. There was indeed no one there, and no warmth either. It seemed like they had been gone for a long time.

Where did Sister Zhao go?

After going to the bathroom, Lin Ning returned to her bed and suddenly found it difficult to sleep.

I checked my phone and it was 11: pm.

Where did Sister Zhao go?
Although their relationship has not reached the point where they can meddle in each other's affairs, Lin Ning is still a person who likes to worry about others. Otherwise, she would not have been able to skillfully chant the spell of encouraging learning in high school.

After thinking silently for a while, Lin Ning picked up her phone and sent a text message to Zhao Yuanzhen.

[Ningning]: Where are you?

[Ningning]: I’m a little worried about you.

[Ning Ning]: If you see it, please reply to me.

Of course, Zhao Yuanzhen didn't see the text message because she was practicing dual cultivation with Yan Yu at the time.

The two of them sat opposite each other on the bed, put their palms together and transferred their true energy to each other, performing a two-person version of the Great Circulation.

When breathing exercises are practiced to a deep level, white smoke may even rise faintly from the forehead, which is a sign of the exquisite refinement of true essence.

It was unknown how long it took before the two of them slowly withdrew their hands and exhaled their energy.

Zhao Yuanzhen secretly glanced at Yan Yu, with complicated thoughts in his mind.

After practicing dual cultivation for so long, she also realized that Yan Yu's aptitude for cultivation was no longer something that could be described as a lump of mud - it was almost as if it didn't exist.

But on the other hand, in stark contrast to his poor qualifications, his combat prowess and experience were so rich that he didn't look like a low-level cultivator at all.

Through observations during this period, the demonic witch was certain that even the several sisters in her sect who were known for their fighting skills would not be able to defeat her fellow Taoist if they really fought.

If famous and powerful sects place more emphasis on qualifications and foundation, then the Demonic Sect is the epitome of quick success and instant benefits. Being able to fight and kill is more important than anything else. Therefore, she did not dwell too much on Yan Yu's qualifications for cultivation. Instead, she was very curious about why he could possess such strength.

Well, it’s probably his master’s cultivation again.

Zhao Yuanzhen attributed all the inexplicable mysteries about Yan Yu to the powerful master behind him, and was extremely envious of him.

Of course, the Yan thief was also very cautious in this regard and refused to reveal any information, which made Zhao Yuanzhen quite angry and resentful.

"By the way," she asked casually, "when are we going to exchange our primordial yang and primordial yin?"

"When the dragon and tiger meet, it has the effect of breaking through bottlenecks." Yan Yu had already considered this and replied, "Of course, it is used to impact the foundation-building realm."

This is the expected answer. After all, if you want to break through the bottleneck, you must use it when you encounter the bottleneck to maximize the benefits.

But Zhao Yuanzhen still felt a little unhappy, and hummed:

"I don't know how long it will take for you to reach the Great Perfection of the Foundation Establishment Realm!"

"It won't be long." Yan Yu replied calmly.

In his previous life, he was always a mortal, so there was no need to worry about his cultivation level. However, in this life... you can refer to Jing Ye's leveling speed. He has extraordinary talent and vast resources, so he is basically chasing the upper limit of his spiritual energy.

Since I, Yan Yu, want to be the strongest in this world, then the upgrade speed must keep up, right?

"You'd better." Zhao Yuanzhen stood up with an unhappy look on his face.

She left Yan Yu's room, closed the door, and turned around to see Lin Ning standing at the door of the room she shared, looking at her in astonishment.

"...Sister Zhao?"

——————The group stayed in the town for one night and flew back to Nanjing the next day.

Because there was no team competition, there was no review session. Chen Lingyun just sent the video to everyone and let the girls watch and summarize it themselves.

Yan Yu was lying on the chair, looking at the sea of clouds outside the porthole, and suddenly felt a little emotional.

The spiritual energy of the previous life was revived, and when it reached the stage of flying with a sword, airplane passengers could occasionally see sword light parting the sea of clouds in the distance through the window. That was the unique light effect of the Lu country cultivators flying with a sword, and it was unique in the world.

There was even a heated discussion online about the so-called "Sword Light Atlas", which told you which color of sword light represented which monk was flying on a sword... Although this reflected the people's support and love for monks, it also made the monks' travels completely secretive. After all, the sword light flying through the sky could not be concealed, and everyone below could see it.

The result is that no one wants to travel by sword unless absolutely necessary. It's really annoying to go out today and be trending on the Internet tomorrow.

Yan Yu yawned, and saw Chen Lingyun sitting down beside him, smiling:
"I have good news and bad news. Which one do you want to hear first?"

"Listen to the good first, then the bad." Yan Yu said casually.

"Oh, why?" Chen Lingyun blinked.

"Don't I know your true nature?" Yan Yu glanced at her with disdain. "You never bring any good news, only bad news and worse news."

"Hmph." Chen Lingyun didn't argue, but simply smiled and announced the answer, "The good news is, do you remember the prisoners we brought back?"

"Yeah." Yan Yu nodded, "What happened to him?"

"His value is greater than we originally expected." Chen Lingyun said with a smile.

"What about the worse news?"

"The bad news is, he escaped," Chen Lingyun said meaningfully. "The information about this secret realm will be strictly sealed and kept confidential at the highest level... Simply put, our exploration of the secret realm was in vain. You are not allowed to mention this to anyone from now on."

"Oh, you let the person go." Yan Yu immediately understood.

If Park Changmin, whose handle fell into Lu Guo's hands, could return to the country and pass the investigation, he would certainly become an extremely important intelligence spy - of course, at this point in time, Lu Guo certainly did not anticipate the true value of the Goryeo Sword God.

"So what happened to this person in his previous life?" Chen Lingyun asked curiously.

"He's become the Korean Sword God." Yan Yu chuckled, "His combat power is evenly matched with Liu Longtao's. Isn't that impressive?"

"That's truly amazing!" Chen Lingyun's defenses were instantly broken, and tears of laughter streamed down her cheeks. "Master Jing should be honored to have fought a draw with the Korean Sword God."

She wiped away the tears of laughter from the corners of her eyes and suddenly said:

"By the way, Ningning seems to be in a bad mood. Do you know why?"

"Lin Ning? Are you in a bad mood?" Yan Yu turned around and looked at Lin Ning.

I saw Lin Daiyu in the back row opposite, with one hand on the side of the porthole, looking at the sea of clouds outside with a sad expression. Her temperament was surprisingly similar to that of Lin Daiyu - of course, the one in the Dream of Red Mansions version.

Yan Yu immediately imagined a scene in his mind. He saw Lin Ning's expression as red as a lemon, and he said with a sour and resentful tone:
"I'm not so blessed as to be cared for by others. I'm just a nobody."

stop! Stop it!

He quickly retracted his gaze and asked Chen Lingyun:
"What happened to her?"

"How should I know?" Chen Lingyun asked with a smile.

"Why don't you try to find out?" Yan Yu asked her rhetorical question.

"Okay, I'm a little interested." Chen Lingyun smiled helplessly, "But I've had more important things to do lately, so I haven't had time to find out. That's why I came here to ask you."

"I really don't know." Yan Yu said in confusion, "We just finished the secret realm yesterday and didn't do any extra training. How can I know why she's unhappy? Maybe she just has relatives coming over."

"She didn't come." Chen Lingyun denied, "Her relatives will be here at the end of the month..."

"That's enough," Yan Yu interrupted her immediately. "I don't want to know her menstrual period, nor do I want to know why you know it, but I want to remind you of one thing: ensuring the mental health of the team members is also the vice-captain's responsibility. If she fails to perform well in the subsequent training camp, I will hold you accountable."

"The vice-captain is also in charge of this?" Chen Lingyun laughed in surprise. "Is there such a rule?"

"Yes." Yan Yu said seriously, "This is the rule of our team. I just made it."
