Time slowly passed.
Before Dan Taiyuan came back, Lou Qianxue ate the blood ginseng and studied inscriptions. Her internal injuries gradually recovered.
Since she was in this situation, where there were no distractions, her speed of comprehending the inscriptions became faster and faster.
“Qianxue, do you dislike staying here?”
Dan Taiyuan carried her up. In a flash, he left the ice crystal space with her.
Lou Qianxue subconsciously opened her eyes. When she saw a dense and lush forest in the surroundings, and a small house in the middle of it, she was taken aback.
“Qianxue, I know that you want to learn weapon refinery. I have looked and found this place after searching for a long time. There are many demonic beasts and spiritual herbs around here. They can help you with weapon refinery.”
Lou Qianxue’s eyes flashed.
Although she remained expressionless, a sense of helplessness flashed past her eyes.
“Qianxue, I’ll teach you weapon refinery. The main thing about weapon refinery is depicting inscriptions. As long as you can depict inscriptions well, the grade of your Spirit Item will naturally be high.”
From this day onward, Dan Taiyuan did not enclose Lou Qianxue in his ice crystal space. Instead, he stayed in this forest and fully concentrated on teaching Lou Qianxue weapon refinery.
Every night, he slept on the same couch as Lou Qianxue.
The irritability in his heart slowly subsided.
During the day, along with Lou Qianxue, he shuttled back and forth in the forest to look for materials for depicting inscriptions. He personally depicted inscriptions in front of Lou Qianxue to teach her.
He taught and guided her.
Lou Qianxue gradually became attracted to Dan Taiyuan’s newly-taught inscriptions. As for the three complex inscriptions earlier in the book, she put them aside for the time being.
In the blink of an eye, seven days passed.
Night fell.
Lou Qianxue’s eyelashes trembled as she slowly opened her eyes.
Her eyes turned with a clear distinction between the black and the whites. She looked at the man beside her.
His eyes were still tightly closed. He did not have the usual cold and ruthless look. Instead, he looked like a child.
Lou Qianxue’s gaze landed on the black marks on his face. Her eyes flickered, and she silently sighed.
She had a stubborn disposition; she was open to persuasion, but not to coercion.
Whenever she got strong-headed in her past or her present life, it was frightening.
She rarely changed the decisions she made.
However…
This man was always an exception.
When she had taken the three inscriptions he had left behind earlier, it had already made her feel that she owed him.
And he still had a face full of black marks.
Lou Qianxue closed her eyes and bit her finger. Traces of blood oozed out.
She opened her eyes again and applied the blood from her fingertips on Dan Taiyuan’s lips.
At the next moment, the black marks on Dan Taiyuan’s face and neck faded away like the tide.
“Qianxue!”
When his perfect and flawless face regained his cold and handsome appearance, Dan Taiyuan suddenly opened his eyes. With brimming eyes, he looked at her in surprise. “You’re willing to pay attention to me?”
“…”
Lou Qianxue had nearly forgotten that this man’s cultivation was very high. Any slightest movement would awaken him.
“Qianxue…”
When he saw that Lou Qianxue was not talking, Dan Taiyuan’s gaze darkened again. He acted like a small animal that was being bullied.
However, the one who was obviously being bullied now was Lou Qianxue!
Lou Qianxue suddenly became angry. She forcefully struggled to break away from the wrist that Dan Taiyuan had domineeringly placed on her body. Then, she turned around with her back facing him.
Dan Taiyuan silently and strongly hugged her from behind.
“Regardless of whether you pay attention to me or not, I won’t let you go!”
Lou Qianxue, whose back was facing him, was startled as she looked ahead. A tinge of confusion flashed past her eyes.
At times, this man made her feel that she was very important to him and that he cared a lot about her.
However, he also made her feel like she was just a pet that would come and go whenever he called her.
He… What exactly does he want from me?
