Chapter 164 – Wash in the master’s bedchamber

Although he was nearly beaten to death by Leng Feiyan, Lin Jichen didn't receive any notification that her affection level towards him had dropped. It was still at 50 points.

This indicated that Leng Feiyan wasn't truly angry.

Indeed, if he had really angered her, would he still be alive with just a drop of blood left?

It was good that she wasn't truly angry.

Besides, he had touched Leng Feiyan's chest... Recalling that sensation, it was unforgettable for a lifetime.

He could only say that his master's punishment was both firm and soft!

After Lin Jichen had fully recovered, he obediently stood in front of Leng Feiyan's bedchamber.

This time, he had to behave well and show a proper attitude of repentance.

"Master, your disciple is here."

"Come in," Leng Feiyan's ethereal voice called out.

Lin Jichen walked in nervously.

Having been here once before, he walked skillfully into Leng Feiyan's sleeping quarters.

However, he didn't see Leng Feiyan in the main hall.

Nor was she on the phoenix bed.

Just as Lin Jichen was feeling puzzled, Leng Feiyan emerged from the back hall, her hair slightly damp, dressed in a black dress that he had never seen before.

The black dress fluttered, a white jade belt cinched her slender waist, accentuating her perfect figure.

Below were a pair of long, well-proportioned jade legs, and above, towering peaks.

The black dress made her skin appear as white as snow, and a delicate bracelet adorned her fair wrist, looking both casual and naturally elegant, like a Heavenly Immortal descending to the mortal world.

Her three thousand strands of black hair were coiled into a bun, held in place by a simple white jade hairpin. A few strands of hair floated in front, looking both casual and enchanting.

Leng Feiyan's face seemed to have a touch of makeup, making her appear even more delicate and beautiful.

Dreaming of seeing her cloud-like hair from afar, now adorned with flowers, descending to the mortal world.

Lin Jichen thought, even a fairy couldn't be more beautiful than this!

"Master, you..." Lin Jichen swallowed hard.

Leng Feiyan looked even more beautiful than usual.

Leng Feiyan seemed a bit bashful, her eyes wandering, but she pretended to be calm.

"Didn't you say you were going to take me to Everwinter City to gain enlightenment on the Dao Heart? I took a bath and changed into some casual clothes. What, don't I look good?"

As she asked this, Leng Feiyan anxiously watched Lin Jichen's expression, fearing he would say she didn't look good.

This was an outfit she had painstakingly chosen over the past few days, putting a lot of thought into it.

Lin Jichen swallowed again, trying to steady his breathing, and praised her:

"Master, saying you look good would be an understatement. You are a feast for the eyes, a peerless beauty! A fleeting glimpse in a crowd, where others see their lover as , but even your enemies would see you as Xi Shi!"

Leng Feiyan couldn't hide her smile upon hearing this, and any previous resentment towards Lin Jichen's 'impropriety' was long forgotten.

"Hmph, you just know how to sweet-talk me," Leng Feiyan huffed proudly.

"How could that be? Your disciple always speaks the truth."

"Alright, let's set off then. It's getting late."

Leng Feiyan was already filled with anticipation for this outing... no, this training in the mortal world, and she was even a bit impatient.

Lin Jichen looked at Leng Feiyan, dressed so exquisitely, then looked down at himself, disheveled and in tattered clothes.

This was all due to his earlier sparring with Leng Feiyan.

In this state, how could he have the nerve to go out with her?

"Master, look at me. I also want to take a bath and change my clothes, is that okay?"

"Does your living quarters have a place to bathe?"

"Uh, I don't think so," Lin Jichen thought for a moment and realized he had never considered this.

Bathing was another realistic setting in the game.

Everyone had a cleanliness value; the lower it was, the more NPCs would avoid you, thinking you smelled.

So, bathing was necessary. Usually, soaking in a lake would suffice, or staying at an inn in the city where you could also bathe.

In his current state, Lin Jichen indeed needed a bath.

Moreover, Lin Jichen had a bit of a cleanliness obsession.

Seeing this, Leng Feiyan kindly said, "Why don't you bathe in my bedchamber? There's a bath barrel in the back, filled with Tianshan Spirit Water. It's good for your body. Go and wash up."

Lin Jichen immediately agreed and rushed to the back hall.

He had never seen what was behind his master's bedchamber.

Upon entering, he found it to be ancient and elegant, with exquisite furnishings.

There was also a small bath barrel, just big enough for one person to lie in, similar to a modern bathtub.

The material of the bath barrel was extraordinary. Based on Lin Jichen's experience, it was made of Millennium Green Spirit Wood.

Millennium Green Spirit Wood was the finest of woods.

Equivalent to modern golden-threaded nanmu.

Extremely valuable, it could be used to craft Heavenly Grade wooden equipment.

Unexpectedly, Leng Feiyan used it for bathing. How extravagant.

The bath barrel was filled with water, which was milky white and emitted an astonishing fragrance.

It was indeed Tianshan Spirit Water!

This was a precious item, capable of nurturing spiritual energy and healing old ailments.

Many hidden injuries could be cured with just a cup of Spirit Water.

A cup of Spirit Water could sell for thousands of Spirit Stones in the future.

Such a large barrel, and Leng Feiyan used it for bathing.

Lin Jichen didn't know what to say.

A master is truly a master.

He touched the water temperature; it was still warm.

Lin Jichen thought Leng Feiyan had prepared it for him in advance, so he immediately took off his clothes and jumped in.

As soon as he got in, Leng Feiyan rushed in, anxiously saying, "Disciple, get out quickly. This is the water I just bathed in... I haven't changed it yet..."

Leng Feiyan had just remembered.

But upon entering, she found Lin Jichen already in the water...

Lin Jichen felt a bit awkward, but quickly composed himself, saying, "It's okay, Master. I don't mind."

Leng Feiyan glared at him, embarrassed and annoyed. She hadn't even mentioned being bothered, and here he was saying he didn't mind!

"Get out, and I'll change the water for you," Leng Feiyan said.

Unexpectedly, Lin Jichen refused.

"No need, Master. This is fine. The water temperature is just right, and it smells good, with flower petals. I'll just wash like this."

He simply wanted to save some Tianshan Spirit Water for Leng Feiyan, as it was a rare commodity.

But the more Leng Feiyan listened, the more embarrassed she felt.

A disciple bathing in his master's bathwater, this...

Seeing Lin Jichen lying comfortably in the water, she couldn't bring herself to order him out.

Besides, if he came out, wouldn't she see things she shouldn't?

Leng Feiyan blushed and told Lin Jichen to wash quickly, then turned and left.

She already regretted letting Lin Jichen bathe in her bedchamber. Her private bath barrel was now occupied by Lin Jichen, and he was using her bathwater.

Leng Feiyan felt utterly embarrassed.

She ran out, feeling like she was sitting on pins and needles.

Lin Jichen, on the other hand, lay comfortably in the bath barrel, savoring the experience of bathing in Tianshan Spirit Water.

He had never experienced this in his previous life, and he couldn't miss such a good opportunity.

While Lin Jichen was soaking in the bath, his attention was suddenly drawn to some scattered clothes on a rack beside the bath barrel...
