10 The Beautiful Qingcheng

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

After being stunned for just a moment, Qingcheng continued to sense and absorb the Spirit Qi to cultivate. All the Spirit Qi that was in the tub as well as what was in the air wafted towards Qingcheng's body, and she slowly lost herself in cultivation.

Since this was the inner part of the Magical Forest, there were very few humans around here. And because she trusted Tealwood and the other wolves, she didn't think anybody else would enter the cave. So, she blocked off her sense of surroundings and just concentrated fully on cultivating.

But when the man who had entered the cave walked through her formation, he could feel a presence in the cave. "Hmm? Someone's here."

He continued to walk in the direction of where the light was coming from, and when he finally reached the source, he saw a scene that he would never forget for the rest of his life.

Under the light of a luminous stone, a fairy-like young lady sat cross-legged inside a bathtub, not wearing anything. The water above her exquisite collarbones sparkled in the light, and everything shoulder down was covered by it.

The young lady's shiny, black hair was untied and cascaded behind her shoulders. Her facial features looked like part of a painting, her full red lips made one want to kiss her, and the eyelashes on her tightly closed eyes looked like butterfly wings. Even though she was rather young, it didn't affect how mesmerizing her face was.

Even though he had always forbidden women from coming close to him, he couldn't help but feel his heart tremble a little. He slowly moved forward a bit to find that the young lady had closed off all her external senses while cultivating. Otherwise, there was no way her eyes would remain closed even though he was standing so close to her.

When he thought about this, the man actually chuckled and used his charming yet mildly lazy voice to say, "This young fellow. Are you too trusting of the wolves outside, or are you too confident of that formation you built out there?"

If other women saw him smile like this, they would definitely squeal in delight and then faint from happiness. If his subordinates saw how their Young Master was smiling, their jaws might drop from shock.

The man bent down to draw nearer to the bathtub. He couldn't help but raise his right hand and use his long index finger to gently stroke the young lady's fair, smooth cheek. Then he lifted her chin slightly.

A gleam of light flashed in his dark and deep-set eyes as he locked his gaze on the young lady's red lips beneath her high nose. Those perfect red lips made his own curl slightly into a blinding smile, and after he looked at her for a while, the man stood up.

Spirit Qi was entering Qingcheng's body from the water, and the Spirit Qi in the air also continued to waft over.

When he noticed this, he became curious about the water in the tub, but he didn't investigate any further. He knew that the young lady was now at a critical stage before leveling up and could not be affected right now. Otherwise, the consequences were very severe.

Swoooooosh…

A strong light burst from within Qingcheng's body. She had leveled up and gone from Spiritualist to Spirit Mentor. The man was slightly surprised by this, because from her appearance, Qingcheng was quite young. After checking the age of her bones, he realized that she was only twelve.

"A twelve-year-old Spirit Mentor? It's hard to find one in the Eastern part of the continent, and she even has all five attributes within her body. That's really surprising." This was an even more shocking discovery.

He realized that it was getting late, and he was worried that Qingcheng might awake anytime now that she was done leveling up. The man looked at Qingcheng and said, "I'm leaving now. Perhaps we might still meet again."

Dongfang Haochen went back to the concealed position he had come from earlier.

"Darknight, time to go." He seemed to be in a pretty good mood from the way he spoke.

It was his subordinate's turn to be puzzled. What had his Young Master discovered in the cave?

But he didn't dwell too much on it and quickly caught up with his Young Master to leave the forest.

......

The first thing the next morning.

Inside the cave, Qingcheng eventually managed to reach Spirit Mentor Tier Five and slowly opened her eyes after stabilizing her cultivation level. She got a towel out from the interspace and came out of the water. Then with the wave of her hand, the bathtub was placed back inside the bedroom of the interspace.

With a flash, she had entered the bedroom inside the interspace. She opened the bedroom closet and saw a few dozen dresses hanging inside and more than twenty sets of pantsuits, but most of the clothes were white and red. She pulled open the drawer right at the bottom of the closet to find it filled with brand new fitting undergarments.

It was as if the interspace's previous owner knew she would need these things and got everything ready beforehand.

She picked out a white dress to wear, and even though it looked a little too big on the rack, it automatically shrank itself to match her body, so it fitted her well. The collar was slightly open to reveal her exquisite collarbone, and the sides of the collar were embroidered with golden phoenixes.

The belt around her waist made it look slim enough to fit in one hand. The back and right side of the skirt were beautifully embroidered with light purple irises, and a thin mesh layer laid on top made it look flowy and fairy-like.

There was one more cupboard filled with high boots of varying colors, and there were about twenty pairs inside.

"Looks like the previous owner of this interspace was a really vain girl…"

She picked a pair of whitish-silver boots that were embroidered with silver flowers, then she walked to the bronze mirror at the dressing table to pull up half her hair, clipping it up with a jade hairpin. She allowed some of her fringe to cascade diagonally across her forehead without covering her eyes. Then suddenly, the phoenix-shaped eyes in the mirror looked at the reflection of the red lips.

It didn't take her too long. Once she was done dressing herself up, she left the interspace.

Once she exited the cave, Qingcheng was immediately surprised. A strange man in white was now standing outside, but she merely took a quick glance at him.

The Windblast Wolves were still surrounding the area, but after looking at all of them, she didn't see Tealwood among them.
