CHAPTER 554: THE FLUTE’S SOUND IS TOO STIFLING, IT… BREAKS ONE’S HEART

Chapter 554: The Flute’s Sound Is Too Stifling, It… Breaks One’s Heart

…

Seeing Chen Huaian lift the quilt,

Li Qingran still blushed and tilted her head slightly.

This was different from what Senior Sister Yue had said. Senior Sister Yue said to just blow with all your strength. Master would definitely enjoy it, and she didn’t have to be shy because Master would never lift the quilt.

But now…

“Qingran…” Chen Huaian spread his legs apart, looking silently at the girl lying between them for a moment, “Is this how you play the flute?”

Li Qingran stopped playing and asked doubtfully, “Yes, Master. Although it’s my first time learning, it’s surprisingly easy to pick up!”

She raised the jade flute in her hands and waved it, smiling brightly: “I used to only know how to play the bamboo flute, but now I find the flute’s sound really beautiful too~ Does Master like it? If you do, your disciple will play for you every day and learn more songs!”

Chen Huaian looked at Li Qingran’s innocent smile.

While his heart felt bitter, it was also filled with guilt.

Forget it.

Li Qingran was still so young; what did she really understand?

Even taking a step back, weren’t Mo Shumei and Yue Qianchi just young girls too?

They didn’t understand either.

If the teacher isn’t a wise person, naturally, the students won’t be wise.

As for whether Li Qingran should understand or not,

Chen Huaian had already let it go.

Not to mention this game system wouldn’t let him cross certain lines easily.

Moreover, actively teaching Li Qingran those things would be too sleazy.

It would go against his true intention.

Better to let things be.

If it didn’t happen, it didn’t happen. Drinking the soup was still okay.

“Qingran, it’s very late. How about sleeping?”

Having come to this realization, Chen Huaian opened his arms to Li Qingran.

Li Qingran had originally wanted to play a few more songs for Master.

But seeing Master’s open chest, her heart and body felt as if soaked in honey, instantly softening.

“Okay, I’ll sleep.” Her delicate body collapsed into Chen Huaian’s arms.

Pressing against that solid chest, listening to the strong heartbeat inside, she sighed with relief, feeling wrapped in boundless happiness at this moment.

“Master…”

“Hm?”

Li Qingran peeked out half a little head from under the quilt, pressing against Chen Huaian’s neck, exhaling sweet warm breath: “How do you think I’m doing with my learning?”

“…Pretty good.”

“Hehe, Senior Sister Yue told me to come learn every day from now on.”

“Don’t go.”

“Ah? Why not?”

“Ah…” Chen Huaian sighed while stroking Li Qingran’s little head, “Because I still prefer you playing the bamboo flute… The flute’s sound is too stifling; it breaks one’s heart!”

“Oh…”

Li Qingran always felt there was a faint sadness in Master’s eyes. But that sadness wasn’t for a specific person, nor was it a memory of a sorrowful event.

It was just…

Right at this moment,

This scene carried a strange kind of aura.

It quite fascinated her.

…

Unable to sleep, tossing left and right.

After Li Qingran fell asleep, Chen Huaian took the chance to log out.

He had just taken off his helmet when he saw his younger brother in a blood rage state. Feeling deeply apologetic, he took a cold shower to relieve his blood rage.

Then he took out the Black Scales Sword to communicate with Zhang Yibai.

“Old Zhang, how are things recently?”

[Still the same.] Zhang Yibai’s voice appeared in his mind: [Brother, what you said just now, why does it feel like a long time has passed?]

Chen Huaian was stunned for a moment and glanced at the clock on the wall.

Clearly, he had done so many things in the Cangyun Realm, but in reality, only a few hours had passed. This severe time distortion still made him somewhat uneasy.

“Old Zhang, come back for a moment. The Heavenly Demon Art is working well in the Wind Spirit Sect now, and I want to make it public to the Moon Shadow Sect. But you know well, the Cangyun Realm has a biased view of demonic arts, so…”

[I understand. You want me to set an example, right?]

“Yes.”

Talking to a smart person was comfortable, Chen Huaian thought silently.

[Okay, wait for me. I’ll come right away!]

…

After contacting Zhang Yibai, Chen Huaian went to the next room.

Just as he reached the door, he heard Wang Shouyi comforting Hua Jin’s voice.

“Her Eminence, don’t be sad. Even if your cultivation is gone, we can rebuild it. The important thing is we saved our lives. As long as we live, there is hope, isn’t there?”

“But…” Hua Jin’s voice was filled with despair and sorrow: “It’s not just that my cultivation is gone. My talent and foundation are all destroyed. I’m afraid I can never cultivate again. This world is so dangerous, and we don’t know how many enemies we’ll meet in the future…”

“You still have me!” Wang Shouyi’s affectionate voice sounded: “I will protect you! No one can hurt you. If anyone wants to touch you, they have to step over my corpse!”

“Wuwuwu, Little YiYi…”

Chen Huaian: “…”

He cleared his throat lightly and knocked on the door.

“Her Eminence, Brother Wang, may I come in?”

“Senior? Please come in.”

Chen Huaian entered the room and saw that Wang Shouyi and Hua Jin, who had been entwined before, had separated. But from their flushed faces and slightly disheveled clothes, one could still guess the intimacy just moments ago.

“Senior, you came just in time.”

Wang Shouyi quickly approached Chen Huaian, full of hope: “Senior, you’re best at alchemy. Is there any pill that can restore foundation?”

Chen Huaian glanced at Hua Jin True One, who was cowering in the corner.

Without her strength, she had also lost confidence and pride.

At this moment, she was just a physically healthy girl.

If she couldn’t cultivate again, she would age rapidly faster than normal people.

Currently dependent on others and powerless.

Hua Jin True One no longer dared to meet his gaze.

“Sigh, how could there possibly be such a miraculous pill in this world?” Chen Huaian shook his head repeatedly: “Pills that only instantly heal bodily injuries already severely violate the natural order.”

Wang Shouyi’s expression darkened.

“Yes, you’re right… but…”

He wanted to help Hua Jin True One.

He couldn’t bear to see her so broken.

“Her Eminence, in your current state, the only option is to cultivate other methods that don’t require talent or foundation. Later, I will try to find pills that can restore your foundation. Just don’t expect too much.”

Chen Huaian had pills.

The Primordial Heaven-Mending Pill, after all~

Even the ordinary-grade one was enough for Hua Jin True One.

But he wasn’t a fool.

If he handed the Primordial Heaven-Mending Pill to Hua Jin, he would lose full control over her.

He needed Hua Jin to cultivate the Heavenly Demon Art.

This wouldn’t lead Hua Jin to grow huge muscles. It wasn’t a charm technique exclusive to men, but one both men and women could refine.

For male cultivators, it increased their original masculine charm by making their physiques larger and stronger. Female cultivators also benefited, but in enhancing their original feminine charm.

As for which aspects it enhanced,

Compared to the Cangyun Realm’s low-level Dual Cultivation Technique and various charm arts,

The Heavenly Demon Art not only comprehensively enhanced a female cultivator’s feminine charm from appearance and figure but also further strengthened their aura.

In simple terms,

Cultivating the Heavenly Demon Art to a profound level,

The fairy directly transforms into a female succubus!
