Chapter 1937 - 1938: Really Smashed
Murong Liuqing exclaimed, "Alright, Ling Zhenfei, it's come to this and you're still pretending. Do you believe that I can kill you with a single blow of my flute?"
Ling Zhenfei replied, "I'm really weak now, don't joke about this. If you wonder why they're pretending, just ask them."
Murong Liuqing said, "In a house where all three are sick, with two pretending, do you think I'll believe you're not pretending?"
Ling Zhenfei responded, "Actually, they are being kind-hearted. Seeing me ill and needing to stay behind to recuperate, they were worried that I wouldn't have anyone to take care of me, so they decided to stay with me."
Murong Liuqing said, "Wow, even at this point you can still make up stories. Unbelievable."
As Murong Liuqing spoke, she raised her flute over Ling Zhenfei's head.
Ling Zhenfei asked, "What do you want to do?"
Murong Liuqing said, "I don't want to do anything, just a little suspicious of you.
I've heard people say that human potential is limitless. I want to test your potential now. I'll count to three and smash the flute onto your head.
I think you have the potential to evade it, maybe even your potential can instantly cure your illness."
Ling Zhenfei said, "Don't joke, it'll really hit me."
Murong Liuqing said, "You should believe in your own potential, you can definitely dodge it. One!"
Ling Zhenfei was taken aback, never expected Murong Liuqing to be so domineering, believing she could do anything.
"Two!"
Murong Liuqing held the flute high, without a trace of expression on her face, like an impartial judge executing the law.
"Three!"
Murong Liuqing counted to three, and then the Bamboo Flute came smashing down onto Ling Zhenfei's head as if it had suddenly come to life.
Ling Zhenfei looked at Murong Liuqing, showing no intention of moving.
The speed of Murong Liuqing's Bamboo Flute was extremely fast, carrying with it a trace of Northern Spiritual Energy, mixed with a strong wind blowing towards Ling Zhenfei's head.
If hit by the Bamboo Flute, Ling Zhenfei would definitely be injured, even if not, it would be extremely painful.
But Ling Zhenfei still did not move, not even a twitch, until the Bamboo Flute truly came down, getting closer and closer to Ling Zhenfei's head. Finally, it stopped right above Ling Zhenfei's head.
Ling Zhenfei could even feel the temperature of the flute, not knowing what material it was made of. It looked like bamboo, but it was harder and heavier than bamboo.
Sun Wei and Zhang Zhenlin didn't dare watch, and upon seeing the flute stop, they both widened their eyes in shock.
They were shocked that Murong Liuqing really dared to swing it, and that Ling Zhenfei truly didn't dodge.
This was actually a test of one's mental fortitude, seeing who could really hold on till the end, and ultimately, it's about one's courage.
If Murong Liuqing really couldn't stop, then Ling Zhenfei's head would take a serious hit.
Murong Liuqing was also surprised and exclaimed, "I didn't expect you wouldn't move at all."
Ling Zhenfei said, "I told you I'm currently too weak to move, but I think I recover quickly, maybe I can move by this afternoon."
Murong Liuqing asked, "Then when do you think you'll recover and be able to move?"
Ling Zhenfei thought for a moment, then glanced at Sun Wei and Zhang Zhenlin, and said, "If I have these two brothers helping me, I think two or three days should be enough."
Murong Liuqing thought for a moment and said, "Two or three days should be alright, we can speed up and maybe catch up with the main group in time."
Ling Zhenfei nodded and said, "I don't see any problem with that."
Murong Liuqing glanced at the three of them and said, "I'll give you three days then, and after that, we'll rush to catch up with the main group as quickly as possible."
The three of them nodded in agreement, and then Murong Liuqing turned and left.
The three exchanged a knowing smile, and Sun Wei gave Ling Zhenfei a thumbs up, saying, "Impressive, Brother Ling, I really admire you. There aren't many people I admire in this life, and you're one of them."
Zhang Zhenlin also said, "Yeah, I think only you can handle this Ice Beauty."
Ling Zhenfei said, "Do you think I wasn't scared? I was afraid too. If that flute had hit my head, I probably wouldn't be going to the Foreign Land Space."
Sun Wei said, "Anyway, our goal is achieved. Now what should we do?"
Ling Zhenfei said, "Do whatever you feel like doing now, we'll talk about the rest later."
Zhang Zhenlin said, "It's not right though, didn't the Ice Beauty just say that after three days we'll rush to catch up with the main group on foot to Xianling Mountain?"
Sun Wei said, "Are you dumb? By then we three will find our own way, how can they control us?"
Zhang Zhenlin nodded, "That's right. We're all in the Dawen Realm, why should I be afraid of her?"
Ling Zhenfei said, "We'll talk about it when the time comes; for now, just use this time to rest."
The three of them lay down again for another nap.
Murong Liuqing went somewhere for cultivation, and in the afternoon, the three of them sat at the entrance, each in a reclining chair with a small table at their head, holding a teapot and teacups.
They talked and took turns pouring water and drinking tea.
A gentle breeze swept across Wuliang Mountain, but the sun was still warm, with wind and sunshine, the scenery of Wuliang Mountain below was within view.
Sun Wei said, "People used to think I had ADHD because I couldn't stay still, always wanting to move around when not cultivating, even restless while sleeping.
But who would've thought that reclining on a chair would be so comfortable, especially in a place like this? It's something worth doing for life."
Zhang Zhenlin said, "Yes, this feeling is indeed nice."
Ling Zhenfei said, "Enjoy it while you can, because once we enter the Foreign Land Space, we might not have the chance to enjoy it anymore."
Sun Wei said, "Do you think if we keep lazing around, we might neglect our cultivation?"
Ling Zhenfei said, "Cultivation certainly requires effort, but do you think it's just about sitting in a mountain cave cross-legged, absorbing the spiritual energy between heaven and earth?"
Sun Wei asked, "Isn't it? Aren't we supposed to cultivate during early mornings or late at night when it's most effective?"
Ling Zhenfei laughed, "We're all Loose Cultivators without many people to teach us, but that has its perks—no need to conform strictly.
Take Wuliang Mountain for example, when we were here before, we saw very few people, where were the others? They went off to cultivate. Why do they prefer to train where no one else can see them?"
