Chapter 5 Color is Void_1

In the evening, Lin Yi returned home with a smile on his face. The breakthrough in the Cloud Rain Technique was indeed a surprise. With a proficient level of the Cloud Rain Technique, the range of rainfall increased by more than a hundred percent, greatly enhancing his efficiency in watering plants.

Moreover, the breakthrough in his Cloud Rain Technique had unexpectedly added ten points to his Level Grinding Novice's experience value all at once. He planned to diligently exterminate pests next and make a breakthrough in the Metal Finger technique. Besides, since the previous owner had spent money to learn the Earth Spike Technique, it would be a waste not to cultivate it consistently.

He went to the kitchen to steam a pot of Spiritual Rice, but on second thought, he replaced the Spiritual Rice with White Crystal Rice which contained no spiritual energy.

Although devoid of spiritual energy, White Crystal Rice, which was only available to the dignitaries in the secular world, greatly surpassed Huaxia's high-quality Wuchang Rice in terms of taste.

Subsequently, he took out two eggs from the chicken coop, preparing to scramble them over rice. Then the knock on the door sounded.

Lin Yi instantly became alert, put the eggs back in the nest, and headed for the yard's gate while asking, "Who is it?"

"Little Yi, it's me, Aunt Liu. I've brought another girl for you, I guarantee you'll like her this time." Liu Mei Niang's familiar voice rang out from outside the door.

Lin Yi couldn't help but feel a bit of a headache; why wouldn't it stop? This reminded him of the fear of being manipulated by match-making on Earth. Now, having finally arrived in the Cultivation World, he still couldn't escape the fate of arranged dates.

"Aunt Liu, thank you for your kindness, but as I have said yesterday, my heart is set on the path of cultivation. Please return."

"At least open the door and let us in! This girl has come a long way to see you, it's not polite to keep her waiting outside," Liu Mei Niang said, hinting at her complaint.

Lin Yi pondered for a moment, then went ahead and opened the door. Liu Mei Niang brusquely entered, pulling a red-dressed lady along with her directly into the house, "The courtyard is too dark, we will wait for you inside the house."

This felt awfully like she was trafficking in women. Lin Yi couldn't help but mock inwardly before he hastily followed them into the room. As he entered, he saw the lady in the red dress observing items in the room with her back to him. Her enchanting figure was barely hidden underneath her red sheer dress, irresistibly inviting Lin Yi into exploration.

"Hong Yao, Lin Yi has arrived. Turn around," said Liu Mei Niang to the lady in red.

The woman slowly turned, casting back a radiant smile, took a graceful step towards Lin Yi, slightly bowed, then looked up at Lin Yi, her eyes brimming with affection, "Greetings, Elder Brother Lin. My name is Hong Yao."

Under Lin Yi's gaze, the view of Hong Yao's chest was entirely unobstructed. Her skin, as smooth and white as congealed lard, peeked from her clothing, exuding an enticing aura.

Upon viewing such a scene, Lin Yi felt a rush of blood surging to his head. Such a test for old cadres—who could withstand it? Innocence really doesn't stand a chance in the face of sexiness.

He bit his tongue, shaking himself awake and slowly raised his hand, "Please rise, Miss Hong Yao."

Seeing Lin Yi's expression, the corners of Hong Yao's mouth curled upwards. Her crimson lips slightly parted, and with a seductive look in her eyes, she said, "I had heard from Sister Mei Niang about your dashing elegance and gentle charm, Elder Brother Lin. At first, I found it hard to believe. However, after meeting you today, it's clear your demeanor is indeed admirable and refined. I find myself increasingly drawn to you."

With that, her breathing became somewhat rushed, her warm breath fragrant with a hint of flowers, constantly brushing against Lin Yi's face and her eyes grew somewhat blurred.

Lin Yi almost lost consciousness to her sweet, warm breath. He pinched his thigh hard and coughed, "Miss Hong Yao, you flatter me. I have a slight discomfort to the scent of orchids, it's too strong." As he said this, he fanned his hand in the air a few times.

Upon hearing Lin Yi's words, the affection that was about to gush out from Hong Yao's face froze instantly.

Liu Mei Niang quickly stepped in to mediate the situation, "It's okay, you can use other fragrances. Hong Yao, come and sit down with Lin Yi."

Hong Yao nodded lightly and walked alongside Lin Yi. Halfway there, she suddenly twisted her foot and her body leaned towards Lin Yi.

Without hesitation, Lin Yi took a step back. Hong Yao noticed Lin Yi's movement, her eyes widened as if questioning her life choices. She exerted a slight force, managing to control her tipping body, and slowly straightened up.

"Little Yi, why didn't you catch Hong Yao? Lucky she has quick reflexes," seeing this, Liu Mei Niang was startled. Then she said with a hint of blame.

"Aunt Liu, it is inappropriate for a man to touch a woman casually. I cannot tarnish Miss Hong Yao's purity," Lin Yi shook his head, speaking earnestly.

Upon hearing the word "purity," an unusual look crossed Hong Yao's face, then disappeared in a flash.

Liu Mei Niang waved her hand, motioning for them to sit down, "Okay, everyone sit down. Hong Yao is a disciple of the Worldly Hundred Flower Valley, she's about to break through the Innate Realm, her body is flexible and delicate, soft as water."

"If you marry her, I guarantee you'd be a groom every night. The union of yin and yang greatly benefits cultivation, and she even brings a dowry, so you won't suffer any losses. It is only by starting a family that you can truly become a man."

Hong Yao looked at Lin Yi affectionately, gently biting her lip, "Elder Brother Lin, I want to marry you."

This is not about wanting to marry me; it's about preparing to squeeze me dry and split my property, Lin Yi thought bitterly, cursing Zhang Yuan Cheng for playing such underhanded tricks. "Miss Hong Yao, you're very splendid, but my heart is devoted to cultivation. Women can only hinder my cultivation, so, I'm sorry. Please, return."
