Faced with Le Mulan’s attitude of seizing the mont, Zhang Yu nodded in agreent.
After all, university students, especially those from Wanfa University, are indeed pressed for ti and need to make the most of it.
He struck with an open palm, his palm pressing against Le Mulan’s back, a chill-inducing mana already injected into Le Mulan’s body.
The mana originating from the Deep Cold Path allowed Le Mulan to digest Zhang Yu’s mana more easily.
However, as the chill of their combined mana swiftly accumulated, it visibly left a bluish-purple hue on Le Mulan’s face.
Zhang Yu understood that if things continued this way, this training wouldn’t last much longer before it ended.
Otherwise, forcing it further would undoubtedly lead to severe frostbite for the other party, and once dical fees were paid and recovery ti needed, the progress on the Immortal Path would be greatly set back.
Zhang Yu, who was looking forward to Le Mulan advancing to the second level of the Deep Cold Path, couldn’t accept such an outco.
So, upon feeling the rapid drop in temperature in the other party’s body, Zhang Yu had to channel his vitality, pressing his other hand, which was radiating warmth, against the other side of Le Mulan’s back.
"Zhang Yu, don’t just touch my back, I’m cold elsewhere too."
Feeling the other person’s trembling body leaning in, Zhang Yu could only adjust his posture to better raise the other person’s body temperature.
At that mont, he felt as if he was holding a mass of soft snow, icy cold and slippery.
Suddenly furrowing his brows, he said, "Don’t wiggle around, don’t keep rubbing, or I won’t touch you anymore."
Le Mulan imdiately stopped moving, obediently nodding and replying with trembling bluish lips, "Okay."
Outside the door, Xuan Ge was silently listening to the sounds inside the dormitory.
In his usual impression, Le Mulan was always cold and indifferent, often ignoring other students around, her personality was downright reclusive.
Especially after she beca a Foundation Establishnt Ancestor, the opinions of the surrounding students changed dramatically, with Qi Refining novices having delusions of dual cultivation.
Le Mulan’s attitude towards classmates then beca even more distant.
Xuan Ge often saw her treat classmates like air, as if she neither heard nor saw the Artifact Refiners.
However, at this mont, the eavesdropping Xuan Ge felt he discovered another side of Le Mulan.
"Dual cultivation really trains a person," Xuan Ge sighed, "Le Mulan has been trained into having two faces."
...
In the following days, Zhang Yu continued to embark on the journey of uniting spirit with flesh, ti and again.
As he opened his eyes in the Spirit Realm this day, he recalled his current identity once more.
Zhang Yu was an experintal subject raised in a laboratory.
Since childhood, he practiced the Can Niu Soul Heart Technique to enhance his endurance, allowing the lab to gather more data.
But on the first day his work officially began, he discovered the lab staff did not show up.
Instead, there were a group of people he had never seen before. They wore uniforms and opened cages, releasing all the experintal subjects.
"The lab personnel responsible for unauthorized Immortal Path cultivation by underaged subjects have been arrested."
"Next, your destination will be determined based on your cultivation level..."
Due to his low cultivation, Zhang Yu was protected by the Mortal Protection Law and was released from the lab, gaining freedom.
Unaware of the world, Zhang Yu wandered through society, owning nothing but the Can Niu Soul Heart Technique in his mind.
Stealing, snatching food, working illegal jobs... He repeatedly practiced the ntal thod until one day he could maintain its operation while sleeping, undisturbed by cold and pain, finally sleeping peacefully.
But in the next instant, the entire world abruptly halted.
In confusion, Zhang Yu looked up to see two figures brimming with Divine Power approaching him.
"Reaching the unity of spirit and flesh for high-intelligence Artifact Spirits seems problem-free, now we just wait for the material realm’s official experint."
"Retrieve him first, don’t let him escape into the Spirit Realm Network."
"As for the official experint in the material realm, hey... if the cost of high-intelligence Artifact Spirits doesn’t go down, saying more is useless."
"Bla it on those Soul Cultivators being too cheap, they’re way more useful than any Artifact Spirit."
...
Zhang Yu again removed the spiritual interface from his face, whispering to himself, "Was that the feeling of a high-tier Artifact Spirit breakthrough this ti?"
"Why does this high-intelligence Artifact Spirit’s breakthrough seem easier than a human’s?"
Shaking his head, he diligently focused on experiencing the lingering sensation in his mind.
As evening approached that day, Zhang Yu followed his usual custom and initiated communication with Bai Zhenzhen.
"Yu Zi," Bai Zhenzhen looked at Zhang Yu with a smiling face and said, "I have good news for you, next sester I’ll be coming to Wanfa University."
Eyes brightening, Zhang Yu exclaid with delight, "Really? Are you free to co over?"
Bai Zhenzhen replied, "Yes, I’m going to participate in the Flying Sword Competition next sester."
"This year’s Flying Sword Competition is being held at Wanfa University."
Bai Zhenzhen’s projection approached, leaning close to Zhang Yu with a bright smile, "Then we two will finally et again."
After happily ending the communication with Zhang Yu, Bai Zhenzhen eagerly anticipated the arrival of the Flying Sword Competition.
...
The following day, Zhang Yu logged into Hamr Heart Inn once more.
Upon opening his eyes this ti, he saw many Qi Refining Practitioners clad in long robes and sleeves before him, understanding that he was leading them to demand wages.
Zhang Yu retrieved a box from his sleeve, opening it to reveal several gold pellets inside.
