Vishdair ultimately did not proceed with Lin Guang.
Although she really seed to be the kind who, when excited, would disregard everything, she froze atop Lin Guang as if suddenly sobered after her impulsive action was witnessed by Lisa. She quickly released him, fled the room as if escaping, leaving only so damp traces on Lin Guang’s clothes, body, and mouth, and dared not et his eyes for the rest of the day.
As for Lisa... While she sensibly refrained from asking anything, for several hours afterward, her adorable little face maintained a hint of blush, and her whole person seed a bit dazed. Each ti her gaze glanced past Lin Guang, the two large ears on her head would slightly twitch.
Thus, the whole day at ho was enveloped in a different kind of silence, imbued with a slight awkwardness and ambiguity.
Even when "Lily" lay on Lin Guang’s bed that night, she didn’t snuggle into a "fox ball" next to his head as usual but kept a distance of one or two fists away—though this situation lasted only one night.
After this day ended, the joyful atmosphere at ho returned, as if the incident had never occurred.
The matter of the Ore Disease seed to be temporarily settled on the surface.
But Lin Guang had long been prepared in his heart.
This was destined to be a prolonged war.
......
After that, life seed to return to normal.
Every day, Lin Guang went to school to train, studied with Kaiwen, ditated, cooked at ho, and regularly used the Corrective ridian Opening Technique to massage the three patients at ho, including himself.
Especially for Lin Guang himself, daily massages were essential.
Otherwise, he truly wouldn’t know when Source Stones might sprout on his skin.
Wanting to perform the massage on himself indeed posed so difficulties, as the human anatomical structure naturally limits the angles at which his hands can move, but it wasn’t too big a problem.
After all, with the Power of Whole Heart and Soul elevated to Tier Two, Lin Guang’s spiritual power took another leap, allowing it to penetrate bodily tissues more effortlessly.
As long as the Hand of Full Mastery rested on the skin, no muscle strength was needed; the spiritual power alone could activate this secret technique inscribed in the Sea of Spirit with greater precision and operational force to unblock any internal congestion. Lin Guang only needed to endure the feeling that Vishdair and Lisa had to periodically experience.
But overall, the rhythm of life didn’t change much.
If there was any change, it would likely be in the training status of the three.
To Lin Guang’s relief, ever since he was diagnosed with Ore Disease, Dr. Kaiwen seed not to have the slightest intention of giving up on him.
After thoroughly examining Lin Guang’s vital signs, Sea of Spirit status, and talent condition with high-end machines, she went out for an entire day.
Upon returning, Lin Guang noticeably felt lighter and more efficient while ditating in the ditation Pod—even without using the Eye of Omniscience and Omnipotence, he could tell that many rare spiritual materials had been added.
And starting that day, Vishdair seed as if injected with so excitent stimulant, not just by relentlessly pondering and exhausting her physical strength during intense training guided by Kaiwen at the training room in school, but even at ho, she almost entirely abandoned extracurricular activities, asked Lin Guang to buy training Spiritual Artifact, and did various quiet exercises at ho. If she was completely exhausted, she would let Lin Guang massage her to quickly recover her energy.
She even dedicated half an hour each day to practice writing in the Daxia Language.
Lisa, who was already hardworking, beca even more tireless after receiving the perfect Tier Two Potential Potion, exchanged using joint exam points by Lin Guang, often ditating until midnight, significantly reducing actual sleep ti.
Lin Guang repeatedly urged them to rest properly, but none wanted to listen.
Finally, the matter concluded with him sternly mandating that both must rest well on weekends.
After all, cultivation is for living, but life shouldn’t revolve solely around cultivation.
Trying to rush may lead to failure.
If the string snaps, one’s entire being would collapse.

"Plants" Journal, Zhen Sheng City Office.
In the corridor, a middle-aged man in a white coat held a freshly brewed cup of coffee and stopped a passing young man.
"Professor Li, do you have any instructions?" Wu Yu paused his steps, respectfully asking.
"Not really, it’s just that I’ve noticed Lao Song seems very cheerful lately, has sothing good happened?"
"Ah, well, it is indeed sothing good."
Upon ntioning this matter, Wu Yu visibly showed a smile, genuinely happy for his ntor.
"It’s no secret; soone has discovered the Evolutionary Path of the Swaying Lily; the paper has been reviewed and will be published next month. It’s sothing that’s been on the teacher’s mind for quite so ti."
"I see." The middle-aged man nodded in understanding. "You go on your busy way."
"Alright."
After Wu Yu hurried away, the middle-aged man touched his chin and took out his phone.
"Hello, Lao Zhang. You previously asked to keep an eye on Lao Song and anything related to the Swaying Lily, right? Well, soone has indeed discovered its Evolutionary Path."
"Yes."
"Alright, I’ll contact the author for the information and send it to you."
...
Saturday noon, after the three had just finished lunch, Lisa volunteered to help Lin Guang clean up the dishes, while Vishdair relaxed on the sofa, as the TV played "Thirty-Minute News" from the Great Xia Central Broadcasting and Television Station.
anwhile, Lin Guang was in his room making a phone call.
On the other end of the phone was Assistant Wang, the glasses-wearing assistant to Kong Guofeng, the Education Bureau director of Zhen Sheng City.
"Assistant Wang, do you rember when I ntioned before that I’d like to trade the Cold Water Dragon King’s eyes with the three major families for equally valuable Evil/Fire Elent spiritual materials? I understand it may be difficult to find sothing of exact value, so during this period, I’ve consulted my teacher, if there’s so value discrepancy, it can be covered with four-tier Fire/Evil Attribute spiritual materials such as the Dark Abyss Dragon’s horn, Divine Fury Fire Lotus’s seeds, etc., but the grade must be the highest in the sa tier."
In this joint exam, the educational bureau, military, and aristocratic families, as responsible parties, each provided so extrely high-grade materials, blueprints, and treasures—not typically accessible at this stage for students—for the exchange list, with the top five scorers in rankings having priority to choose and lock one item for themselves, others being unable to exchange even if they had enough points.
Unquestionably, the original plan was to offer this as an exceptional privilege and reward to the three major families for their efforts in conquering the Demon Qi Secret Realm and slaying the Cold Water Dragon, serving as a form of hidden benefit exchange.
Unexpectedly, Lin Guang erged, not only claiming first place but also siphoning off significant points from Jiang Xinyue, Wang Feng, and Huai Shouren. Even though Jiang Xinyue and Wang Feng were still among the top five, they couldn’t exchange or lock anything.
Thus, an item entered Lin Guang’s sight.
That item was the Dragon Eye of the Cold Water Dragon King.
