I want to go back to my original world and live an ordinary life.

After saying that, Zi Yang looked at Qiu Yan with a slight smile, with a kind of expectation and calmness in his eyes, as if no matter how Qiu Yan answered, she would not feel anything. Qiu Yan and Zi Yang had not been in contact for a long time, and they had only met twice this time, but Qiu Yan had some understanding of Zi Yang's character. Zi Yang was a very Buddhist person, always speaking slowly and calmly, with a neutral expression, as if he was a person who had seen through all the worldly things, extraordinary and otherworldly. Qiu Yan liked people with this kind of character very much, neither tepid nor fiery, just like a fine wine that had been treasured for many years, with a good smell and a feeling when it was tasted. At this moment, Qiu Yan's heart was moved. This was the second time Qiu Yan felt moved. The first time Qiu Yan felt this way was when she was with Sister Hu, and this time it was when she was with Zi Yang. This time, this feeling was even stronger than when she was with Sister Hu, so strong that Qiu Yan had no way to suppress this emotion in his heart.

"Instructor Zi Yang, can I ask you a personal question?" Qiu Yan asked embarrassedly as he looked at the charming woman in front of him.

"Ask! I can tell you anything you want to know!" Zi Yang had a faint smile on his face, and his tone was still very calm.

Hearing Ziyang's answer, Qiuyan seemed even more embarrassed. He rubbed his hands on the corners of his clothes, and seemed a little hesitant. But after thinking for a while, Qiuyan still plucked up the courage to ask Ziyang, "Instructor Ziyang, how old are you this year? Are you married..." Qiuyan's voice was very low when he said the word "married", because after he said it, he felt that he was too rash and rude. But Ziyang didn't seem to care about the two questions themselves. She just looked at Qiuyan's expression and felt it was incredible.

Ziyang had traveled around the continent, and her knowledge and experience were beyond words. She could naturally see Qiu Yan's little thoughts. But what she didn't understand was why Qiu Yan would have thoughts about her sloppy female instructor. Although she did get some empty titles in the past, such as the first genius beauty of the Holy Spirit, she knew in her heart that she was not the most outstanding in terms of appearance. There were still many people in the Holy Spirit Kingdom who were more beautiful than her. It was only because of her background and strength that someone gave her the title of the first genius beauty. Apart from anything else, she couldn't compare to Mu Qingxue just now. In terms of appearance alone, Mu Qingxue was undoubtedly the most beautiful person she had ever seen, and Qiu Yan not only didn't take the initiative to show her courtesy to such a person, but instead confronted him. Originally, I thought Qiu Yan was the kind of man who had no interest in women, but now it seems that she was wrong. Qiu Yan is just a normal man.

Although Zi Yang had long seen through worldly love, she was not against worldly love, so she did not reject or hate Qiu Yan's thoughts. In order to let Qiu Yan stay, Zi Yang did not hide this privacy from Qiu Yan, but said, "I am thirty-five years old this year. Since I started practicing, I have cut off my love ties, so I have never been married." At this point, Zi Yang looked at Qiu Yan, and saw that Qiu Yan's expression showed a trace of excitement after hearing what he said. Zi Yang smiled, and then continued, "I don't object to you having any thoughts about me, because that is your business. But I have given up all worldly love, and I am afraid I can't respond to your expectations, so you should not hold too high hopes. Moreover, at your current age, it is not the time to talk about these things. Now you should think about how to become a person who travels in the nine heavens, do you understand?"

After hearing Zi Yang's words, Qiu Yan felt a little disappointed. He understood what Zi Yang meant, so he nodded and said, "Yeah! I understand!" After that, Qiu Yan looked up at Zi Yang again, and then continued, "But I won't give up. When I can really travel to the nine heavens one day, I will definitely let you stay by my side!" This was the first time Qiu Yan said such words to a woman, and they were also the most sincere words. If Qiu Yan's love for Jin Ling'er was a kind of love out of apology, then Qiu Yan's love for Zi Yang was a kind of love from the heart.

"As long as you stay, I can stay with you now?" Zi Yang smiled. She naturally understood that what Qiu Yan said about staying with him was completely different from what she said, but what Qiu Yan said was too far away. She just wanted to keep Qiu Yan first, and then send him to Tianji personally.

"For you, I stay!" Qiu Yan did not hesitate this time. Although he understood what Zi Yang said, Qiu Yan didn't care. Even if Zi Yang had severed the relationship between men and women, Qiu Yan would still try his best to pursue him.

Zi Yang didn't react much after hearing Qiu Yan's words. After all, as long as Qiu Yan could stay, no reason was important. So she nodded and said to Qiu Yan, "Since you're staying, come with me! I'll help you consolidate your cultivation first, and let you feel the charm of the formation." After that, Zi Yang turned and walked in the direction she came from. Qiu Yan didn't understand what Zi Yang meant by helping him consolidate his cultivation. He had no interest in formations. He was just willing to listen to Zi Yang's words. So Qiu Yan didn't ask or say anything. He just nodded and followed Zi Yang.

Ziyang brought Qiuyan to the small courtyard of the formation prison. After entering the courtyard, Ziyang looked at the weeds and leaves in the courtyard. He just took a step forward and purple lightning spread from the tip of Ziyang's toes like a flood. The weeds and leaves were all turned into powder by the purple lightning and scattered. The whole courtyard became clean in an instant. Qiuyan was stunned by this scene and became curious about Ziyang's strength. He asked, "Instructor Ziyang, what is your strength?"

"Six hundred and twelve levels," Zi Yang replied calmly, without hiding anything from Qiu Yan. Qiu Yan was even more surprised when he heard Zi Yang's answer. Thirty-five years old and over six hundred levels, this is too amazing! No wonder Mu Qingxue was scared just now, this is not a level at all!

After clearing the weeds and leaves, Ziyang used his spiritual power to draw something on the ground. Qiu Yan curiously leaned over to take a look and found that Ziyang was drawing a formation. The formation was a circle with a triangle in the middle. There were three small circles at the intersection of the triangle and the circle. In the middle of the triangle were two circles, one large and one small. In the middle of the two circles was a circle of incomprehensible characters.

Qiu Yan didn't understand formations, so naturally he couldn't understand what this formation was used for. At this time, after drawing the formation pattern, Zi Yang explained to Qiu Yan, "This formation is called the Three Element Solidifying Spirit Formation, and it is used to consolidate your cultivation. You have absorbed elixirs before, and although your strength has been improved, your spiritual power is not very stable, so you need to use this Three Element Solidifying Spirit Formation to help you stabilize your spiritual power, otherwise it will affect your future cultivation speed."

"Oh!" After hearing Zi Yang's words, Qiu Yan nodded in understanding. At this time, he did not doubt Zi Yang's words, because he knew that Zi Yang would not lie to him for no reason.

Seeing that Qiu Yan understood, Zi Yang continued, "This formation requires three natural treasures to activate. Now take out three crystals to activate the formation."

This was the first time Qiu Yan heard that crystals could be used to activate formations, but he did not hesitate. He nodded and took out three crystals from the space jade and handed them to Zi Yang. Zi Yang took the three crystals from Qiu Yan and did not say much. He nodded and placed the three crystals in the middle of the three small circles. After the three crystals were placed in the small circles, the formation pattern originally drawn with purple spiritual power actually slowly turned red from the three crystals, as if it was dyed red by the red crystals. In a few breaths, the purple formation turned red, and after the formation completely turned red, the three crystals were directly suspended in the air and rotated. At this time, Zi Yang did not explain much to Qiu Yan. He pointed to the center of the formation and said to Qiu Yan, "You sit in the middle of the formation, and then directly run the spiritual power you have improved through the elixir in your body."

After listening to Zi Yang, Qiu Yan nodded, without asking any more questions, and then walked directly to the center of the formation and sat cross-legged, slightly closed his eyes and began to run the water attribute spiritual power, because Qiu Yan's water attribute spiritual power was also improved by absorbing spiritual pills, so Qiu Yan wanted to stabilize the water attribute spiritual power first. After seeing Qiu Yan sitting down, Zi Yang said slowly, "This formation can probably last for about three days. In the three days, you should stay here and stabilize your cultivation. You don't need to worry about other things. I will help you solve them."

After hearing Zi Yang's words, Qiu Yan opened his eyes and looked at Zi Yang, then said to Zi Yang, "Instructor Zi Yang, although I stayed, I still want to stay in the academy as a Class D student. I don't want to do anything special, so..." Qiu Yan's original intention remained unchanged. He didn't want to be stared at because of his peculiarities. He just wanted to be an ordinary student, a student who would not be noticed by anyone.

Zi Yang listened to Qiu Yan's words, smiled slightly, nodded and said, "Okay, I understand! In this case, I will talk to your instructor and ask you to help me clean the yard for the next three days and not go back for the time being. I will also make arrangements for you on Lie Yang's side and will not let them bother you again."

"Yeah!" After hearing Zi Yang say this, Qiu Yan nodded, and then didn't say anything else, but concentrated on running his spiritual power to consolidate his cultivation.
