The fairy love story between Bi Yao and Li Yuan after traveling through time
Chapter 4: Deep into the World of Immortal Cultivators
Entering the land of immortals for the first time, gradually exploring the secrets of immortal cultivation
Bi Yao was startled by this sudden action and her heart was pounding.
She subconsciously wanted to struggle, but found that the man behind her was incredibly strong and she couldn't move at all.
"Don't be afraid, it's me." Li Yuan's voice sounded in her ears with a hint of smile.
Bi Yao finally breathed a sigh of relief and rolled her eyes at him unhappily: "You scared me to death! What are you doing sneaking around?"
Li Yuan loosened his hand, scratched his head, and chuckled, "I'm just afraid that my master will find out about you! He has a bad temper. If he knew I brought back a girl of unknown origin, he would definitely skin me alive!"
Bi Yao held her forehead helplessly: "Then where are you taking me now?"
Li Yuan smiled mysteriously: "Follow me and you will know!" He took Bi Yao's hand and walked around to a secluded courtyard.
"What is this...?" Bi Yao looked at the simple courtyard in front of him, feeling a little confused.
"My secret base!" Li Yuan said proudly, "This is where I usually practice. I wouldn't bring ordinary people here!"
Bi Yao looked around and found that the courtyard was arranged in an orderly manner. Although it was simple, it was full of the breath of life.
She was full of curiosity and anticipation about cultivating immortals, so she pestered Li Yuan to tell her about the knowledge of the Qi Refining Stage.
Li Yuan, this guy, usually seems out of tune, but when he talks about cultivating immortals, he speaks very clearly and logically, and Bi Yao is stunned by what he says. It's like he has opened the door to a new world.
What are "spiritual energy", "meridians" and "dantian"? Bi Yao was confused after hearing them. She felt that they were even more difficult to understand than when she took the college entrance examination!
However, even though she didn't understand, Bi Yao listened with great interest. After all, who doesn't have a dream of becoming an immortal?
The two were chatting animatedly when suddenly, several figures appeared at the gate of the courtyard.
They were wearing the same green Taoist robes and looked at Bi Yao with sharp eyes.
"Li Yuan, who is this woman?" one of the cultivators asked in a bad tone.
Li Yuan quickly stood in front of Bi Yao and explained, "She is... my friend."
"Friends?" Another cultivator sneered, "I don't think so! This is the territory of cultivators, not a place where just anybody can come! A village girl, do you think you're worthy of staying with us?"
Bi Yao felt their blatant rejection of her and felt a little unhappy.
She was about to open her mouth to refute, but was stopped by Li Yuan.
"Senior brother, she is really just my friend and has no ill intentions." Li Yuan said pleadingly.
"Li Yuan, you're too naive!" The cultivator who had spoken earlier said in a more forceful tone, "What do you think the world of immortal cultivation is? This is not a place for you to play around! Let her leave immediately, otherwise..."
He paused, a hint of threat flashing in his eyes.
"What else?" Bi Yao repeated the other party's words, his tone calm, but with a barely perceptible sharpness.
"This... Senior Brother, right? Although I don't understand cultivation, I do know the principle of 'judging a person by appearance, you will lose your son's feathers.' My identity is not important; what matters is whether I have a heart that aspires to become an immortal." She paused, her eyes sweeping over the crowd with a hint of teasing, "Could it be that you, Senior Brothers, were born geniuses in cultivation? Could it be that... you popped out from under a crack in a rock?"
Several cultivators were stunned by her words, and their faces suddenly became ugly.
This woman looks weak, but she is quite eloquent!
"You!" The cultivator who spoke earlier was furious and was about to explode when he was stopped by another cultivator.
"Miss, we're just worried about your safety." The cultivator's tone softened slightly. "The path to immortality is fraught with dangers, not everyone can endure. As a mortal woman, it's best for you to leave as soon as possible."
"Thank you for your concern, Senior Brother," Bi Yao said calmly, "but cultivating immortality is my dream, and I won't give up easily. Besides," she winked slyly, "I'm penniless and have no relatives. Where else can I go except here? I can't sleep on the streets, can I? If a passing immortal saw this, they'd think you, disciples of a prestigious and upright sect, were so cold and heartless."
These words, soft yet firm, expressed his own determination, secretly elevated the other party, and contained a hint of threat.
Several cultivators looked at each other, not knowing how to respond.
Seeing that they were somewhat reassured, Bi Yao struck while the iron was hot and continued, "Actually, I know a thing or two about the world of immortal cultivation. Maybe I can help you. For example..."
She paused mysteriously and pulled out a bar of... soap from her sleeve.
"What is this?" a cultivator asked curiously.
Bi Yao smiled faintly: "This thing is called 'soap', a magical cleaning tool! With it, say goodbye to stains and have a refreshing summer!"
Everyone: "..." What is this woman doing?
One of the immortal cultivators couldn't help but ask, "What does this have to do with immortal cultivation?"
Bi Yao smiled mysteriously: "Of course it is related! Just imagine, when you brothers are practicing, your clothes are neat and your body and mind are comfortable. Wouldn't it be easier to enter the state and comprehend the way of heaven? Moreover..." She lowered her voice, "I can also teach you how to make..."
"Wait a minute," the cultivator who had been against Bi Yao suddenly said, "Why should we believe what you said?"
Bi Yao raised her eyebrows and a confident smile appeared on the corner of her mouth: "Just because..." "Just because... This girl is naturally beautiful and extremely smart, unparalleled in the world!" Bi Yao blinked, and her playful tone stunned several cultivators.
This style of painting is wrong!
Shouldn't this village girl be crying and begging them to take her in?
For a moment, the air became quiet.
Several immortal cultivators looked at each other, obviously shocked by Bi Yao's sudden "Versailles" remarks.
The atmosphere, which was tense just now, suddenly became a little funny.
One of the younger cultivators couldn't help but burst out laughing: "Master, Senior Brother, this...this girl is really...interesting."
Hearing this smile from him, the other cultivators could no longer hold back, and their original hostility dissipated a lot.
After all, they are young people too, who doesn’t like a relaxed and humorous atmosphere?
The immortal cultivator who had been friendly to Bi Yao from the beginning even walked directly in front of her and said with a bow, "Miss, I am sorry for my poor judgment. My name is Lin Qingfeng. May I ask your name, young lady?"
Bi Yao also put away her joking tone, smiled slightly, bowed, and said, "My humble daughter, Bi Yao."
"Miss Bi," Lin Qingfeng said, "could we take a look at the 'soap' you mentioned?"
Bi Yao naturally agreed and handed over the soap in her hand.
Several immortal cultivators gathered together, curiously studying this ordinary "artifact".
Seeing them like this, Bi Yao laughed in his heart: Humph, little guys, now you have seen the power of modern technology!
At this moment, Li Yuan squeezed next to Bi Yao and asked excitedly, "Miss Bi, do you have any good things? Take them out and let everyone open their eyes!"
Bi Yao smiled mysteriously: "Of course there are good things, but..." She paused deliberately, glanced at everyone, and lowered her voice, "This is my unique secret book, it can't be passed on to others!"
"A secret recipe?" Li Yuan's eyes suddenly lit up, like a curious puppy. "What is it? What is it? Tell me now!"
Bi Yao shook his head mysteriously: "The secret cannot be revealed! Unless..."
"Unless what?" Li Yuan asked anxiously.
Bi Yao smiled slyly: "Unless... you become my disciple!"
"I want you to be my master?" Li Yuan was stunned, then burst into laughter. "Hahaha, Miss Bi, you really know how to joke! How can a mortal like you be my master?"
Bi Yao raised her eyebrows, a confident smile playing on her lips. "Who says mortals can't be the masters of immortal cultivators? Back then..." She suddenly stopped, looking into the distance, a subtle sense of loneliness flashing in her eyes. "Forget it, the past is too hard to recall..."
Li Yuan looked at her sudden change in expression and became even more curious.
This Bi Yao seemed to be hiding many secrets... He suddenly said, "Miss Bi, I am willing to take you as my master!"
Bi Yao widened her eyes in pretended surprise: "Really? You don't want to think about it again? I'm just a...poor...little village girl!" She deliberately emphasized the three words "little village girl" and observed Li Yuan's reaction.
Li Yuan said seriously, "I don't care! I think you're amazing! And... you're very interesting!" He scratched his head and added sheepishly, "Much more interesting than my senior brothers and sisters!"
Bi Yao laughed inwardly: You little brat, you have quite good taste!
However, he said, "Well, since you are so sincere, I will reluctantly accept you as my disciple!"
So, in front of everyone, Li Yuan respectfully paid his respects to Bi Yao as his apprentice.
The immortal cultivators around were all stunned. This plot development was too... bizarre!
For the next few days, Bi Yao stayed in this temporary resting place.
Li Yuan obeyed everything his "master" said, and Bi Yao took the opportunity to extract a lot of information about the world of immortal cultivation from him.
It turns out that cultivators are divided into the realms of Qi Refining, Foundation Establishment, Core Formation, and Nascent Soul, and Li Yuan is currently just a rookie in the Qi Refining stage.
Only then did Bi Yao realize that the soap he had made before was actually considered a "rare item" in this world. No wonder it attracted the interest of these cultivators.
She also asked indirectly about the distribution of power in this world, its customs and habits, as well as some "gossip" in the world of immortal cultivation.
Li Yuan is indeed a chatterbox. He tells everything he knows without reservation and is simply a walking encyclopedia.
While Bi Yao was absorbing this information, he was secretly thinking: It seems that if I want to survive in this fairy world, soap alone is not enough.
I have to find a way to improve my strength!
One night, Bi Yao was thinking about how to "make trouble" in this world, when he suddenly heard a noise coming from outside.
She pushed the door open and saw several cultivators gathered together, seemingly arguing about something.
Li Yuan was also among them, his expression looking somewhat grim.
"What's going on?" Bi Yao walked over and asked.
Li Yuan seemed to have found his backbone when he saw her, and he quickly said, "Master, they...they said you are a liar, that you don't understand cultivation at all, and they also said...that if I accept you as my master, I will be...disgracing the reputation of cultivators!"
Bi Yao raised her eyebrows, a hint of coldness flashing in her eyes.
She glanced around at the cultivators around her, a cold smile curling her lips. "Oh? Really? Then tell me, where did I lie to you?"
A tall cultivator stepped forward and said with disdain, "How can a mortal like you possibly understand cultivation? Your so-called 'secret manual' is nothing but unorthodox methods!"
Bi Yao calmly asked, "Unorthodox ways? Then tell me, what is the right way?"
The immortal cultivator was stunned by her question. He hesitated for a long time but couldn't explain it clearly.
Bi Yao sneered and was about to retaliate when suddenly a sharp whistle sounded from a distance...
