Chapter 289: I'm in Love

...

After waking up, Chen Xin thought that Zeng Yi's unconsciousness was caused by his cultivation progressing too quickly and he suffered from deviation. Therefore, he forcefully demanded Zeng Yi to take good care of his body and not continue practicing like before.

But Zeng Yi knew very well that besides having an additional mysterious rune in his body, there was absolutely nothing wrong with his health. However, he felt helpless in being forced to cease cultivation.

After spending two days as a vegetable in bed, Zeng Yi finally couldn't bear the monotonous yet comfortable life, and started walking around the Sect.

Having been in the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect for so long, Zeng Yi hadn't explored any other places besides his residence on the Divine Sword Peak. Therefore, it was a good opportunity for him to appreciate the environment of the Sect.

As he walked along the paths in the Sect, Zeng Yi's curious gaze constantly surveyed the surroundings. When his gaze passed by the graceful figures of the female disciples, he would pause for a moment as a sign of respect.

It had to be said that women in this world were generally good-looking. Remembering every young woman he had encountered, if they were placed in his previous world, they would definitely be considered goddess-level beauties.

It was important to note that there were no beauty filters or editing techniques available here.

As a Sect known for its auxiliary Spirit Masters, the majority of disciples in the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect were auxiliary Spirit Masters, most of whom were women. As a result, the male-female ratio in the Sect was slightly imbalanced. However, for male Spirit Masters, this was simply a great arrangement. As long as male disciples of the Sect weren't too incompetent, finding a girlfriend was quite an easy task.

As Zeng Yi walked, he noticed that the majority of people he encountered were female disciples, with male disciples being scarce. This feeling was similar to being in the Liberal Arts class in his previous life.

It was truly a blissful situation.

Zeng Yi's somewhat frivolous gaze didn't provoke any displeasure from these female disciples. On the contrary, every female disciple who passed by him would take a second glance.

Some glances carried a hint of shyness, while others were extremely bold and audacious. Some even made provocative gestures towards Zeng Yi, which made him sigh helplessly.

This was truly a sin!

Zeng Yi didn't expect the female disciples in the Sect to be so open-minded. There were even some who came forward to ask if he had a girlfriend.

This made Zeng Yi feel a bit awkward. This was the first time he had encountered such a bold girl. But as a free-spirited man, how could Zeng Yi stay in one place? He politely declined the bold confession from the girl.

Heh, did she really think it was love at first sight? She just wanted to get in my pants!

Looking at the somewhat disappointed female disciple, Zeng Yi internally mocked her, then quickly escaped from the embarrassing scene.

Using [Forward Steps Slash], Zeng Yi's figure disappeared from the spot like a wisp of smoke. The sudden speed of his movement shocked the brave confessor, leaving her dumbfounded in her place.

After several seconds, another female disciple walked up behind the confessing girl and gently poked her back with slender fingers, asking "Hong Jie, are you okay?"

At this moment, the confessing girl's body trembled a few times, and the girl watching her couldn't help twitching her mouth.

Could she be crying because her confession didn't succeed? This is too absurd! After all, they were still strangers.

The girl muttered to herself inwardly and reached out her hand to pat her back gently, trying to comfort her emotions.

"Don't feel too sad. If he doesn't agree, it's his loss. With Hong Jie's beauty, being chosen by him is his good fortune, but he doesn't cherish it!" The girl patted her back while comforting her.

Anyone would refuse if a stranger suddenly confessed love to them. It's not surprising that he rejected you.

Seeing the seemingly sobbing girl with trembling shoulders, the girl silently mocked her in her heart.

The girl continued to console her "Hong Jie, don't cry. It's just one blind man. We'll find someone better."

"He's really handsome!"

Before the girl could finish her words, Hong Jie suddenly tilted her head back and shouted loudly. Not only did it startle the girl behind her, but even the people around were shocked by her sudden behavior.

Hong Jie turned around and looked at the girl "Huh? Ye Zi, who did you say was crying?"

Her face blushed, her bright eyes sparkling with peach blossoms, showing intense excitement.

"Oh, nothing. You probably misheard me." Ye Zi looked at Hong Jie's infatuated face and forced a smile.

Hong Jie grabbed Ye Zi's shoulders with both hands and excitedly shook her body, speaking incoherently "Did you see that? The guy just now, he's so handsome, he's my ideal boyfriend! Thank the heavens for sending him to me."

"I'm in love!!!"

Didn't you see that he ran away as soon as he saw you? A boyfriend? With your temperament, the chances of finding a boyfriend are as likely as cultivating to become a Titled Douluo.

Rolling her eyes at being shaken, Ye Zi silently mocked her in her heart.

"I've decided. From now on, that guy will be my target. Hahaha." Hong Jie released her grip on Ye Zi's shoulders, paid no attention to her appearance as a young girl, crossed her arms, and proclaimed with a big laugh.

On the sidelines, Ye Zi calmly adjusted her slightly disheveled clothes and calmly said "Hong Jie, are you serious? You don't even know his name, yet you want him to be your boyfriend. Have you considered his feelings?"

"It feels like you're scolding me." Hong Jie murmured as she looked at Ye Zi, but she quickly cast aside this matter and pointed her finger at Ye Zi.

"Three days."

"Huh?" Hong Jie's inexplicable words puzzled Ye Zi.

Hong Jie said "Use all the power of the organization. I want to know everything about that person within three days!"

"No, three days are too long. We must find out everything about him within one day."

"We're running out of time. Let's quickly gather all the members for an emergency meeting and then search for that person." Hong Jie finished speaking, immediately grabbed Ye Zi's little hand, and hurriedly left the scene.

"Hoo..."

...

In another place, Zeng Yi wiped away imaginary sweat from his forehead with his hand.

Although he knew that he was very attractive, he never expected that his charm would be so great that a beauty would directly confess her feelings to him.

Although he rejected the girl's confession, Zeng Yi's mood was still very pleasant and gratifying.

Didn't this prove that he was very charming?

After escaping from the girl's confession, Zeng Yi continued to wander around the Sect.

Ling Yunfei walked on the road somewhat listlessly. Since witnessing that mysterious man using a simple yet profound sword energy to slash through everything in front of him, the person who was known as the number one sword practitioner among the younger generation in the Sect had been greatly discouraged.

But this didn't extinguish his passion for the path of the sword. After witnessing the powerful sword skills of that person, he fell into a slump for a while, but then regained his spirits, working even harder to practice swordsmanship and gather information about that mysterious expert in swordsmanship.

However, after more than a month, he still couldn't find any information about that person. It seemed as if the person was an apparition, with no evidence of their existence.

Ning Fengzhi hadn't announced the news that Zeng Yi was a disciples of Sword Douluo within the Sect. In fact, all information about Zeng Yi had been sealed off in the Sect. Zeng Yi's presence in the Sect was like that of an invisible person.

Because there were eyes and ears from others in the Sect, and Zeng Yi had made a marriage contract with the Holy Maiden of the Spirit Hall. If news of Zeng Yi's return were known by the Spirit Hall, they would most likely send someone quickly.

Unable to find any information about Zeng Yi, Ling Yunfei felt frustrated and even began to doubt that the person wasn't a member of the Sect. Otherwise, with his abilities and the influence of his family in the Sect, how could he not find any information?

Ling Yunfei's goal in finding Zeng Yi was simple: to become his disciple and learn from his swordsmanship.

Although he knew that the person appeared to be around his own age, in the eyes of others, it would be embarrassing to become the disciple of someone around the same age. However, he didn't care about such things. All he knew was that this person's swordsmanship was stronger than his own, and that was enough for him. He wasn't that narrow-minded.

Moreover, if there were better options available, why would he choose like this? Given the chance, he would have wished to become the disciple of the Elder Sword Douluo, but Elder Sword Douluo didn't value him. Now that a high-level sword practitioner like this had appeared, he wanted to seize the opportunity.

But he couldn't find that person.

This made Ling Yunfei feel disheartened. Even though he had become the first on the Purple Spirit Ranking, it didn't make him happy.

Furthermore, he had only reached the top because the previous chart topper, Tuoba Wu, broke through to Spirit Ancestor half a month ago and was no longer assessed in the ranking, automatically promoting Ling Yunfei from second place to first.

Ling Yunfei simply couldn't accept this kind of achievement.

"Master, where are you?" Ling Yunfei stopped in his tracks and looked up at the sky, sighing heavily.

"Anyway, I should go back and practice."

Just as Ling Yunfei turned around, his eyes suddenly narrowed and his body seemed to be struck by lightning, freezing in place.

Twenty meters away, a young man dressed in green sat on a stone chair. He had long hair tied up and a sword hanging from his waist. Leaning against the stone chair, his gaze followed the swaying skirts of passing girls.

Surprise filled Ling Yunfei's face, quickly transforming into joy as his expression became excited.
