The No.1 Undercover in the Immortal World-Chapter 189 Waiting for Elder Hu to Take the Bait
Lin Yun realized for the first time that being flirted with was not necessarily a good thing.
After teasing Fang Yu, he was already somewhat excited, and now Flower Fairy was wriggling in his arms, softly brushing against his senses from time to time.
Lin Yun finally couldn’t help it and pinched Flower Fairy’s chin, asking in a deep voice, "Are you playing with fire?"
If this continued, paternal love would tumble down like a landslide.
Flower Fairy, noticing Lin Yun’s eager restlessness, also felt her face grow warm.
"I know what you want to do, after all, I’m so good-looking and so cute, but at most, you can only kiss me once and not do anything more."
Lin Yun: "..."
Give me back my proud Flower Fairy!
How come just seven or eight days without seeing her, the pride is all gone?
It’s lost its flavor.
Lin Yun felt somewhat regretful, but seeing Flower Fairy blushingly close her eyes, he couldn’t indulge her.
Do you think you can provoke me?
And say I can only kiss but do nothing else, where should I put my hands?
Lin Yu had no idea that Flower Fairy had taken her away only to start sneaking treats.
According to their chat last night, although Flower Fairy and Lin Yun knew each other and had become sworn siblings on the surface, it was only Lin Yun who had feelings for her.
And yet, with a turn of the head... this this this...
Good thing she wasn’t on the scene.
Having returned to her room, Lin Yu calmed down, and despite recalling that Lin Yun’s gaze at her seemed somewhat odd, she couldn’t help but want to laugh now.
"Little Flower, you can tease me all you want, but when Lin Yun really cheats on you outside, you’ll have your time to cry."
Lin Yu also understood Flower Fairy’s nature: she could be the most ruthless, but also the most sentimental.
Being ruthless was just her way of protecting herself, a facade. That must have been why she came so quickly upon receiving her letter!
After some thought, Lin Yu decided to write a will.
Unlike Flower Fairy’s assumption, this time, Lin Yu chose not to leave; she planned to spend the final moments of her life with the people she cared about the most.
Her previous thoughts were too naive. She should cherish every moment spent with loved ones. Quietly leaving to avoid people seeing her death would actually be more hurtful to them.
She couldn’t bring herself to say the words to Lin Yun while alive, so she had to write them in her will.
With no writing materials in her room, Lin Yu thought for a moment, then went out, planning to ask a disciple of Purple Cloud Mountain for some.
But to her surprise, the normally wandering disciples of Shenxiao Sect were nowhere to be seen.
"Something’s not right, where have all the Shenxiao Sect disciples gone? Could it be, some emergency has arisen?"
Realizing something was amiss, Lin Yu no longer sought pen and paper and turned around, ready to go talk to Lin Yun.
If there was indeed some emergency, it would be good for Lin Yun to be prepared.
Just as she reached Lin Yun’s door, she saw Flower Fairy storming out of the room, fuming.
"I won’t deal with you anymore!"
"Did you two have a fight?"
Seeing Flower Fairy with her face all flushed with anger, Lin Yu grew worried.
Flower Fairy was entrusted by her to help mediate her and Lin Yun’s relationship. Although Flower Fairy had been a bit reckless before, Lin Yu had forgiven her.
"Mhm, we just had a verbal spat, and she got mad because she lost," Lin Yun answered as he happened to come out and heard their conversation.
Flower Fairy’s face turned even redder.
Bickering is bickering, but this man actually laid hands on her!
Fortunately, she was clad in Spiritual Artifacts, otherwise she might have been doomed today.
Seeing the Flower Fairy so angry she couldn’t even speak, Lin Yu hurriedly held her hand and scolded Lin Yun, "How can you be so rude? Even if you do not agree, you should still show some respect for your elders."
"She provoked me first, and besides, I gave her a chance."
The Flower Fairy realized that Lin Yun was deliberately speaking like this in front of Lin Yu. While he seemed to be explaining the reason for their argument to Lin Yu, in reality he was teasing her.
He is really too bad.
"Hmph, this time I’ll let it slide," she said.
"I could also fight you with one hand tied behind my back!"
As Lin Yun spoke, he had just raised his hand when the Flower Fairy quickly retreated behind Lin Yu with her hands crossed over her chest, looking scared.
Lin Yu: "???"
Something’s not right, you two are acting strange.
Realizing there was a problem, Lin Yu did not continue asking but said, "Is there something wrong with the Shenxiao Sect? I’ve noticed that the disciples who usually patrol the mountain are not in their usual places, and on my way here, I haven’t seen any other disciples either."
"Hmm?"
When it came to serious matters, Lin Yun started to pay attention.
That’s odd, am I not a disciple of the Shenxiao Sect? If there really was something going on, shouldn’t I have been notified?
"You two rest in the room for now, I’ll go check out the situation!"
"Hmm."
Despite having decided not to deal with Lin Yun, the Flower Fairy immediately agreed when she heard his command.
Lin Yu was also worried but didn’t dare to add to Lin Yun’s troubles. She could only enter Lin Yun’s room, where she suddenly noticed that his sheets were somewhat disheveled. Confused, she said, "Can’t he fold the blankets himself?"
As she spoke, she went over and smoothed out the uneven parts.
The Flower Fairy looked up at the sky at a forty-five-degree angle, as if nothing had happened.
Meanwhile, Lin Yun had already arrived where the crowd was gathered.
Many disciples were assembled on a large open area, and in the front, Elder Ma Feng was explaining knowledge about Artifact Refining.
Oh, so the disciples are here for an open class!
Why didn’t they call me?
After thinking for a moment, Lin Yun figured it might have been arranged by Fang Yu, knowing that he needed rest after being tired.
Now that I’m here, I might as well listen carefully!
Just in time, too, as Lin Yun had only read a little about the basics of Artifact Refining in books and didn’t really understand the specifics.
What Elder Ma Feng was explaining happened to be exactly what Lin Yun did not understand.
The essence of Artifact Refining is to fuse various materials together.
Different materials have different properties. Some combinations can greatly increase the potency, while others may repel each other. Therefore, understanding the principles of mutual generation and restraint is essential in Artifact Refining.
Besides, one must also understand the characteristics of the materials. For instance, to forge a flexible weapon, one must choose ductile materials. For a rigid weapon, hard materials are required.
The last step is the engraving of formations. The formations must match the properties of the materials, and one must ensure that the Spiritual Power flows correctly within the artifact.
This part is the most difficult, akin to studying circuit diagrams.
Good gracious, am I cultivating scientifically now?
Lin Yun, who had never paid such close attention in his previous life’s physics class, listened with keen interest, completely unaware that the atmosphere had become extremely tense.
Elder Hu Yuling’s influence within the sect was quite formidable. Cultivation wasn’t just about practicing, but also about understanding human relations and worldly wisdom. No one knew if someone might report to Hu Yuling.
Hence, on Fang Yu’s command, all were gathered, including the Elders, and no one was allowed to act in private.
However, as Hu Yuling’s crimes hadn’t been confirmed yet and speaking out wouldn’t benefit future actions, the Elders unanimously decided to keep the matter hidden from the Sect disciples for the time being, tricking them into thinking they were here for a class.
At this moment, Hu Yuling was hurriedly making her way back...
