Chapter 35 - I Wonder If Senior Sister Is Willing?

Chapter 35: I Wonder If Senior Sister Is Willing?

Seeing Meng Changqing seemingly staring at her, Kong Linyue suddenly felt a bit embarrassed.

A faint blush flashed across her snow-white cheeks.

But somehow, she didn’t feel the slightest hint of annoyance in her heart.

There was even a bit…

Noticing the silence, Meng Changqing also reacted.

Mainly because Kong Linyue’s attribute panel was indeed quite good.

He took another look for a moment.

“Oh right, how should we handle those fellow disciples?”

Meng Changqing pointed towards the Blood Refining Array.

Although the Blood Refining Array was broken and the extracted blood returned to those disciples’ bodies, it probably still caused serious injuries.

“Yes, yes, we need to quickly adjust their meridians, qi, and blood.” Kong Linyue suddenly realized.

Then she hurriedly moved over.

As an alchemist, she was naturally proficient in medical skills.

But as soon as she took a step, she felt pain all over her body.

As the strongest among the three, she naturally received Bei Qianke’s special attention.

If it weren’t for the protective artifact, she might have already fallen into a state of severe injury and coma.

Meng Changqing instinctively supported her.

For a moment, a fragrant scent wafted into his nostrils, and when they made contact, he felt that she was as warm and soft as jade.

“Sister Kong, are you okay?” Meng Changqing immediately asked.

“I’m fine.” Kong Linyue’s face turned slightly red.

So far, she had never had such intimate contact with any man.

Fortunately, the moonlight was dim.

No one could see her expression clearly.

“I have some healing pills here. I wonder if you can use them.”

Meng Changqing opened his storage ring and took out some pills that his aunt had prepared.

Among them were second-rank pills.

Very precious.

“Thank you, Junior Brother Meng, but as alchemists, how could we not have any?” Kong Linyue wiped away the bloodstains from the corners of her mouth.

Looking at Meng Changqing, her eyes softened even more.

Second-rank pills were not ordinary items.

To be able to take them out decisively, it showed that Junior Brother Meng’s character was also very good.

He was a very good person.

“Sister, you should rest here first. Junior Brother Meng, can you take care of her? We’ll go over to the Blood Refining Array to treat them.”

Qin Zihan’s gaze swept between the two and then smiled lightly.

Then she pulled the other person away.

Their conditions were still okay.

“Okay.” Meng Changqing nodded.

This was perfect. He could figure out a way to add Kong Linyue as a friend.

With her proficiency as a second-rank alchemist, in the future, he wouldn’t need resources provided by the family anymore, and he might even be able to give back.

“Junior Brother Meng, you probably just joined the inner sect not long ago, right?”

Leaning against the ancient tree next to her, Kong Linyue slowly sat down.

In fact, she wasn’t much older than Meng Changqing.

At most, only two or three years older.

Around twenty years old, it was the prime of youth.

“Yeah, about a little over a month ago.”

Meng Changqing also sat down on the ground.

The night breeze blew gently, swaying his hair slightly.

Under the soft moonlight, the handsome young man seemed like a character only found in stories.

Full of youthful vigor, as elegant as jade.

Kong Linyue was momentarily stunned.

“And Senior Sister?” Meng Changqing asked in return.

At his words, Kong Linyue suddenly came back to her senses.

She quickly averted her gaze, trying to appear calm as she replied, “When I was ten years old, I met my Master. Seeing that my aptitude was not bad, my Master brought me into the Tai Xuan Sect.”

“Senior sister is indeed fortunate,” Meng Changqing remarked.

“That’s the truth. Many people may have good aptitude, but without encountering a discerning eye, it’s useless. Even if they realize it later on, it might have been tens of years, or even decades, wasted. In the early stages of martial arts cultivation, even breakthroughs to higher realms won’t significantly increase one’s lifespan.”

However, Meng Changqing was slightly puzzled.

From Kong Linyue’s words, it could be inferred that she had some backing within the sect.

If that’s the case, with her aptitude, she shouldn’t still be lingering at the seventh level of the Aperture Connecting Realm.

Well, resources and such must not be lacking, and they were probably of good quality.

At least she should have stepped into the Sea Cleaing Realm.

The doubt lasted only a moment.

Meng Changqing didn’t delve deeper because Kong Linyue wasn’t an ordinary martial artist; she was an alchemist.

Alchemists specialize in the Dao of alchemy.

It took a lot of time to research and learn, so progress in cultivation in the early stages was slow. It’s understandable.

“Yes, indeed, I am fortunate,” Kong Linyue’s face revealed a heartfelt smile.

There were countless beings in the world, and not everyone can be as lucky as her.

“By the way, do you have any needs for pills?” Withdrawing her thoughts, Kong Linyue asked seriously, “I’m greatly indebted to you this time. As a disciple of the Medicine King Peak, I must repay you.”

“Sister, there’s no need to be so serious. We are all fellow disciples. There’s no need to be so formal,” Meng Changqing shook his head.

“One should reciprocate favors. Such kindness cannot be overlooked,” Kong Linyue’s expression turned serious.

“Is that so,” seeing Kong Linyue’s determination, Meng Changqing didn’t refuse. After thinking for a moment, he said, “In that case, I have a small request. I wonder if Sister would agree.”

“Please, go ahead.”

“Although I primarily practice the Dao of the sword, I am also quite interested in alchemy. So, I’d like to be friends with Sister,” Meng Changqing said expectantly. “In the future, if I have any questions, I hope Sister won’t hesitate to enlighten me.”

“Friends?” Kong Linyue was taken aback. She never expected Meng Changqing’s request to be this. She thought it might be for some high-grade pill.

“Yes, would Sister be willing?” Meng Changqing asked.

“Of course,” Kong Linyue replied promptly.

In fact, she had been thinking about this for a while.

Otherwise, how would they deepen their connection and increase communication in the future?

She didn’t want to have no interactions with a talent like Junior Brother Meng in the future.

But as a girl and meeting for the first time, it wasn’t appropriate to initiate such a request.

Now that Meng Changqing brought it up, she was naturally willing, afraid of missing the opportunity.

Ding!

The voice of the system echoed in his mind.
