Chapter 355: Nine Suns Ni Tian

After returning to Ling Xuejiu’s villa, it was already around eleven at night, and Leng Xuan found that both young ladies had not yet gone to bed, sitting on the living room sofa watching television. Apparently, they had heard the sound of the door opening, so both of them turned around to look, and he heard Li Mengjie say with a giggle, "Cold Bodyguard, you’re finally back. Xue Jiu and I were about to fall asleep."

Leng Xuan was taken aback for a moment. What did Li Mengjie mean by that? Could it be that she and Miss Ling were waiting for him to return? He was actually a bit moved and responded immediately, "If you’re tired, go to sleep."

Although Li Mengjie didn’t realize the implication of her words, Ling Xuejiu certainly did and quickly explained, "Leng Xuan, Xiao Jie and I stayed up because the television show was so captivating." What she meant to say was, we weren’t specifically waiting for you to come back.

However, Li Mengjie, the confused girl, said with a puzzled face, "Captivating? Xue Jiu, then why were you always holding the remote control and changing the channels?"

Ling Xuejiu’s face turned red, and she was really annoyed. Xiao Jie, this dead girl, was really infuriating. She glared at Li Mengjie and said grumpily, "Dead girl, no one would think you’re mute if you didn’t speak. Hmph, I’m going upstairs to sleep!"

Li Mengjie gave a noncommittal grunt, giggled, and said, "Then I’m going too, I’m dead tired." After getting up, she even winked at Leng Xuan, looking very adorable.

Leng Xuan gave a bitter smile, then went to his room to take a shower. After showering, he didn’t immediately start cultivating the Defying Heaven Art but opened his computer to look up information about opening a leisure center. He then researched the properties of the herbal medicines that Uncle Zhang had formulated years ago. Since some of the herbs were extremely precious, he had to find other substitutes, and about an hour later, he managed to find several common medicinal herbs with slightly less potency. He concluded with a prescription in mind, not bothering to write it down, committing it directly to memory instead.

After finishing these tasks, it was already past midnight. Leng Xuan gave a wry smile and sat on the bed to start his cultivation of the Defying Heaven Art. However, he was somewhat disappointed to find that the progress of the Defying Heaven Art had again begun to slow down. What could be the reason for this? Could it be because he had not cultivated the Jiuyang Divine Art yesterday morning?

Although he didn’t understand the exact relationship between the Jiuyang Divine Art and the Defying Heaven Art, Leng Xuan faintly felt that these two spells seemed to have some compatibility. The faster the Jiuyang Divine Art progressed, the faster the Defying Heaven Art could also increase, but if he did not cultivate the Jiuyang Divine Art, the speed of the Defying Heaven Art would slow down.

In fact, what Leng Xuan didn’t know was that the Defying Heaven Art was an all-encompassing, miraculous spell. To put it in the simplest terms, if the Defying Heaven Art were the sea, then the Jiuyang Divine Art would be a river. The more turbulent the river’s flow, the naturally higher the sea’s water level would rise.

It was for this reason that when Leng Xuan stopped cultivating the Jiuyang Divine Art, the speed of cultivation for the Defying Heaven Art naturally returned to its usual pace.

Although Leng Xuan didn’t quite grasp this principle, he had an inkling that to quicken the cultivation of the Defying Heaven Art, he must cultivate the Jiuyang Divine Art without interruption. However, he was also a bit worried about being seen as a sleepwalker by the two young ladies again. He didn’t want a repeat of yesterday morning’s embarrassing incident, which left him quite frustrated.
