Immortality Begins with Breathing Exercises

Hearing Lin Zheyu’s words, Lei Yunshu relaxed her vigilance slightly and asked.

As far as she knew, the only cultivation family was the Xiao Family in the Southern Cloud Domain.

The Xiao Family of the Southern Cloud Domain was just a small cultivation family, completely incomparable to a powerful cultivation family like the Lei Family. Lei Yunshu had only heard about it by chance from a friend.

”I’m afraid I’ll disappoint Miss Lei. I am merely a person without any background,”

Lin Zheyu shook his head and said.

’A person without background?’

’An itinerant cultivator, or just using a pseudonym?’

This thought flashed through Lei Yunshu’s mind.

She looked at Lin Zheyu expressionlessly, her eyebrows slowly relaxing: ’It’s been so long, and the Golden Palace Jade hasn’t raised any alarm; he shouldn’t be from a cult or an alien race, nor does he seem hostile.’

However, Lei Yunshu only lowered her guard a little, remaining vigilant at heart.

Seeing Lei Yunshu’s caution, Lin Zheyu stopped about a hundred meters away.

He lightly tapped his toes and leaped up, sitting angled against the tree trunk.

With nothing else to do, Lin Zheyu decided to chat with this rather attractive woman.

Even if he couldn’t win the trust of Lei Yunshu, it wouldn’t hurt to make himself known.

Perhaps through their conversation, he might learn something useful from her.

’Lei Yunshu is from the Lei Family, but her words seem to suggest she doesn’t belong to the Observatory.’

’Is the Observatory just an independent institution...’

Lin Zheyu thought to himself.

He looked at Lei Yunshu and curiously asked, ”Who was Miss Lei fighting just now to have suffered such serious injuries?”

”Barbarian Race,”

Lei Yunshu said indifferently.

”The Barbarian Race is so rampant that they dare to penetrate deep into the heart of Great Wei.”

”Alas... the situation is getting more and more chaotic. I just encountered two ill-intentioned guys who seemed to be from the Painful Holy Sect.”

”Barbarian Race, Painful Holy Sect, Nine Nether Sect, Ancient Demons...”

”They really see Great Wei as a fat sheep for hunting!”

Lin Zheyu said with a bit of regret.

”Hmph, taking advantage of others’ difficulties,”

”Once Great Wei recovers from this crisis, they’ll surely be made to suffer,” Lei Yunshu sneered, speaking disdainfully.

Lin Zheyu turned his head to look at her, a look of agreement in his eyes.

He was somewhat expecting Lei Yunshu to continue and tell him what crisis Great Wei was facing.

However, Lei Yunshu remained silent.

Lin Zheyu: ”...”

Oh well.

Lin Zheyu knew that Lei Yunshu still held reservations about him and didn’t trust him.

Lin Zheyu didn’t mind.

He chatted casually.

Lei Yunshu responded succinctly.

Lei Yunshu did not respond to every topic, occasionally giving brief acknowledgments and then remaining silent.

Lin Zheyu talked about anything.

He asked about any promising young talents in the Guanghua Domain, whether the new generation had any extraordinary geniuses, and occasionally mentioned the sights he saw during his travels.

They were all mundane matters of worldly life.

Lin Zheyu tried to disguise himself as a wandering cultivator.

Whether Lei Yunshu believed him or not, he didn’t know.

...

Time slowly passed.

Lei Yunshu’s injuries seemed severe.

Lin Zheyu had been chatting with her for a long time, and she showed no intention of leaving.

He sat cross-legged on the tree trunk, using his cultivation technique to recover from mental fatigue.

After enhancing with Source Power, although his spirit was boosted to its peak, the exhaustion deep in his soul was extremely intense.

This exhaustion was different from mental overuse; even using elixirs had little effect and could only gradually recover with the passage of time.

Howl!!

A deafening roar came from afar, shaking the entire space.

Lin Zheyu suddenly opened his eyes, looking into the distant darkness.

Lei Yunshu also opened her eyes, frowning slightly.

”Miss Lei, don’t worry, take your time to recover.”

”If this demon comes over here, leave it to me to handle.”

Lin Zheyu floated down from the tree, smiling as he spoke.

With an air of a high-ranking person.

”Thank you, Mr. Xiao.”

Lei Yunshu did not stand on ceremony and directly accepted Lin Zheyu’s goodwill.

Although she didn’t know Lin Zheyu’s intentions, at least so far, he hadn’t shown any malice towards her.

”Miss Lei is too kind, it’s nothing,”

Lin Zheyu said heartily.

In order not to expose his identity information, Lin Zheyu put away the Purple Thunder Demon Slaying Blade when he came over.

If he had to take action this time, he would have to rely on his fist skill.

However, Lin Zheyu’s fist skill was quite impressive too, although not as clean and efficient as using the saber skill for slaying demons.

Roar!

The terrifying roar sounded again, stirring the nearby air, whipping up a violent wind.

Feeling the powerful aura, Lin Zheyu’s brow furrowed slightly.

”Hmm, a bit exaggerated.”

”This demon seems a bit tricky!”

Lin Zheyu muttered to himself.

He pondered whether to abandon Lei Yunshu and flee.

However, Lin Zheyu quickly dismissed this plan.

”My magical artifact broke in the previous battle. I wonder if Miss Lei has any blade-type weapons on her.”

”Something sharp and sturdy would do, not necessarily a magical artifact.”

Lin Zheyu looked at Lei Yunshu and said.

”Yes.”

”But it’s just a standardized magical artifact. I don’t know if Mr. Xiao will find it handy,”

Lei Yunshu said.

She took out a silver-white long blade from her storage bag, four feet six inches long, with complex runes engraved on the blade.

The long blade floated out from Lei Yunshu’s hand, hovering in front of Lin Zheyu.

Lin Zheyu watched the method of controlling the object and couldn’t help but feel envious.

She must be using Spiritual Sense to control the magical artifact. Whether she relies solely on Spiritual Sense to wield it or uses other secret techniques or magical treasures, Lin Zheyu couldn’t tell.
