Chapter 45
The Sentimental Lin Qishuang [Please read further or 2 times~]
Standing at the door, Qin Yanan looked on with surprise and uncertainty, unsure whether she should go in directly.
If she didn't still not know the other party's background, she would have insisted on installing a surveillance camera in the house.
Then we'll dig up all of this kid's secrets.
Especially when she thought about the dragon-patterned jade pendant that Lin Xiao had casually sold to her last time.
After being sent back and examined, it turned out to be a spirit item of the eighth rank of the Acquired Realm.
And Lin Xiao actually sold it to me for ten thousand yuan.
In addition, the previous rune, after being studied, has been confirmed to be a powerful rune that has never appeared before.
If we can figure out its intricacies and then replicate it, the power of the Azure Dragon Kingdom will reach a new level in the future.
In addition, there was the dense spiritual energy that appeared just a moment ago.
This kid definitely has a lot of secrets.
Pity.
Qin Yanan paced back and forth, pondering what excuse she could use to uncover this person's secrets.
……
Lin Xiao was unaware that his extraction of the Azure Wolf's inner core had once again drawn Qin Yanan's attention.
After three full hours of absorption, the violent power of the Azure Wolf's inner core was finally completely absorbed and integrated into him.
When it was nine o'clock in the morning, Lin Xiao, who had been keeping his eyes closed, suddenly opened them!
The moment Lin Xiao opened his eyes, two sharp glints flashed by.
Instantly, a powerful and refined spiritual energy slowly emanated from his body.
Lin Xiao could clearly feel that his body was as if it had been reshaped, and his meridians had been widened several times over.
The spiritual energy within his body was abundant and pure, circulating smoothly without any of the previous stagnation.
"call--"
Lin Xiao slowly exhaled a breath of turbid air, which was the impurities remaining in his body, forced out by the pure power of the Azure Wolf's inner core.
He moved his limbs, and his bones made a slight "crackling" sound.
An unprecedented sense of power swept through his body, causing him to burst into laughter.
"We did it! We finally broke through!"
Lin Xiao's face lit up with uncontrollable elation, and he couldn't help but let out a low shout, his tone full of excitement and exhilaration.
Three hours of agonizing torment, nearly 30,000 yuan spent, and that precious Azure Wolf Inner Core—it was all worthwhile in the end.
[Ding: Detection indicates the host has officially entered the Qi Refining Realm. Personal cultivation panel unlocked.]
Before Lin Xiao could get excited, his phone beeped again.
Lin Xiao quickly picked up his phone, opened the game interface, and then saw a template button appear in the lower right corner.
Without hesitation, Lin Xiao opened the page directly.
The clear lines of handwriting made his smile even brighter.

"Hahaha! Not only have I broken through to a higher realm, but I've also gained an extra hundred years of lifespan, and even my meridians have become stronger!"
After looking at his character panel, Lin Xiao couldn't stop smiling.
The anxiety and unease I felt before because of stomach cancer have long since vanished.
This time, however, he won't blindly go to the hospital for a checkup.
If the test results show that my cancer has been cured, then I will definitely be used as a guinea pig.
With that thought in mind, Lin Xiao opened his phone again to check the situation.
But it would have been better if he hadn't looked. After taking a look, Lin Xiao felt his vision go black and he was so angry he almost exploded.
It turned out that during the short time she was absorbing the demon core, Lin Qishuang had encountered several more harassments.
Each time, it was the City Lord's Mansion that sent someone to find Lin Qishuang and invite her to visit the City Lord's Mansion.
Even though Lin Qishuang had refused several times, these people still wouldn't give up.
For a time, Lin Qishuang was somewhat overwhelmed.
After all, it was a well-intentioned invitation, and she couldn't just make a move.
When Lin Xiao saw it, Lin Qishuang had just declined a group of invitations.
Seeing Lin Qishuang resting her chin on her hands, her face full of worry, Lin Xiao couldn't help but cough lightly and asked knowingly, "Little Lin, what's wrong?"
"senior?!"
Upon hearing Lin Xiao's question, Lin Qishuang, who had been listless and looking worried, immediately lifted her head from the table and looked up at the ceiling.
Although she hasn't sensed even the slightest trace of her senior's presence, it doesn't diminish his towering image in her heart.
Without a second thought, Lin Qishuang immediately asked, "Senior, have you finished your work?"
Previously, in order to get Lin Qishuang to take care of him after he entered the dream, Lin Xiao lied and said that he had something to do and had to go on a long trip.
Unexpectedly, Lin Qishuang still remembered this excuse that she herself had already forgotten.
After coughing slightly awkwardly, Lin Xiao said softly, "The matter is not over yet. It was this traitorous disciple of mine who sent a message saying that something had happened, so I came back to check on the situation."
He deliberately brought himself up again so that Lin Qishuang would value him more after entering the dream.
As expected, Lin Qishuang was secretly surprised after hearing his words.
After thinking for a moment, Lin Qishuang said softly:
"Don't worry, senior. Young Master Lin is overreacting. Nothing serious has happened. It's just..."
Lin Xiao was the person directly involved, so naturally he wouldn't be fooled by Lin Qishuang's words.
This girl must have downplayed the seriousness of the matter to put me at ease.
However, he was only trying to vent his anger this time, so how could he possibly downplay the matter?
Thinking of this, Lin Xiao continued typing:
"Tell me the truth, don't hide anything. Whatever the matter, I will naturally take care of it for you!"
Lin Qishuang felt a slight stirring in her heart upon hearing this, and was inexplicably moved.
In the past, when she was in the Lingtian Sword Sect, she always said these words to others.
Even when he was wronged, his master only told him to endure it and never stood up for him.
Lin Qishuang lowered her head slightly, her eyes glistening with moisture.
So this is what it feels like to be protected.
Off-screen, watching Lin Qishuang's eyes redden because of his words, Lin Xiao felt anxious and asked urgently:
"Oh, what's wrong? Did I say something wrong?"
Hearing her senior's urgent voice, Lin Qishuang quickly shook her head and then expressed her thoughts.
"Hey, I thought it was something serious?!" Lin Xiao let out a long breath, then replied irritably:
"You silly girl, you're too sentimental. Now that you're mine, I'll naturally take care of you. Anyone else who tries to bully you will have to ask my fists first!"
