Chapter 253 Delicate and Soft Body, Easily Pushed Down

"The day after Ah-chan left, I missed him, I missed him so much."

Bai Ke recalled a famous line from a romance drama he watched in his original world, and felt that, apart from the gender difference, it was quite fitting for his current state of mind.

Bai Ke didn't realize it when A-Can was around, but now that A-Can is gone, and no one is buzzing around him like a bee, the entire back mountain of Zhijie Cliff feels much quieter, making Bai Ke miss A-Can quite a bit.

Without his childhood playmates by his side, Bai Ke inevitably thought of his girlfriend.

I have indeed neglected Ling Xin'er lately, and I wonder if she thinks that I have fallen for someone else?

Bai Ke chuckled and was about to go find Ling Xin'er when he heard footsteps approaching from afar.

Who would come looking for him so early in the morning? Bai Ke wondered. When he went outside, he saw a girl dressed in a moon-white dress with a slender waist and long legs. Who else could it be but Ling Xin'er!

It's like speaking of the devil and he appears! Is this some kind of telepathy between lovers?

Lost in thought, Bai Ke was suddenly distracted when Ling Xin'er floated up to him like a butterfly.

"Senior Brother, what are you thinking about? Xin'er is right in front of you, how can you be distracted? You must be thinking about some junior sister." Ling Xin'er teased, pouting her little lips.

Bai Ke chuckled and put his arm around Ling Xin'er's slender waist, coaxing, "Xin'er is dressed up like a flower today, I was just dazzled by her beauty!"

Ling Xin'er leaned into Bai Ke's arms and playfully punched his chest with her small fist, saying, "You're so sweet-talking."

The two snuggled together for a while, but Ling Xin'er felt embarrassed to be so affectionate at the gate, so she struggled to stand up straight from Bai Ke's embrace.

Bai Ke waved the food box he was carrying and said, "Xin'er knows that Senior Brother will feel lonely after A-Can left, so she specially made a dessert for Senior Brother to have for breakfast."

Bai Ke said, "My Xin'er is so considerate. What kind of snacks did she make? I was just hungry."

"It's yam and jujube paste cake. I know you don't like sweet things, so I made it a little less sweet," Ling Xin'er replied softly, following Bai Ke into the room.

Bai Ke was hungry, so he ate heartily without caring about his image.

Seeing Bai Ke enjoying the pastries she had made herself, Ling Xin'er knew he liked them, so she covered her mouth and laughed. She also poured Bai Ke a glass of warm water and said, "Senior Brother, eat slowly, don't choke."

Bai Ke took the glass of water from Ling Xin'er's hand and accidentally touched her fingers. He immediately felt that her fingers were as soft as tender shoots, and felt a sense of joy and pleasure.

Is it because I've been single for too long in this world that I'm so unable to resist a girl's beautiful body?

Bai Ke couldn't help but think of the fantasy he had when he first learned to fly: traveling together with Ling Xin'er in a fairyland of clouds.

This is a true match made in heaven! The romance in The Legend of the Condor Heroes, where they sit on a giant eagle and fall in love, is so lame compared to this!

Thinking of this, Bai Ke put down the pastries in his hand, wiped his hands, cleared his throat, and said seriously to Ling Xin'er, "Xin'er, do you want to break through from your current Golden Core Realm to the Nascent Soul Realm?"

Seeing Bai Ke suddenly become serious, Ling Xin'er couldn't help but feel nervous. She nodded and said, "Of course I want to. But with my current cultivation level, I still need to work hard and have a stroke of luck to break through to the Nascent Soul Realm."

While Ling Xin'er was answering, Bai Ke quickly spent all the evil points he had accumulated in the villain system to buy the Thousand Illusions Garan that he had seen in the system shop. He also asked the system to give him a bonus: how to turn the Thousand Illusions Garan into pills.

After listening to Ling Xin'er's words, Bai Ke made a gesture, and a small box appeared in his right hand.

"Senior Brother Bai Ke, what is this?" Ling Xin'er asked curiously.

Bai Ke opened the box, and a pale blue pill the size of a mung bean lay quietly on the velvet inside.

Bai Ke quickly asked the system in his mind, "Is the system misleading me by selling such a tiny pill at such a high price?"

The system, with its aloof and unyielding spirit of "better to die than be humiliated" and its honest and straightforward business attitude, told Bai Ke: "It's only this big. Use it or not, take it or leave it! If you don't want it, just return it."

Hearing the system's answer, Bai Ke felt relieved and explained to the bewildered Ling Xin'er, "This pill is called the Thousand Illusion Garan Pill, which is made from a plant that grows in swampy and miasma-ridden lands."

"This plant has a thousand faces and no form, making it most suitable for use as a medicinal ingredient. When combined with other precious spiritual items, it can help people attain enlightenment in their dreams, hence the name Thousand Illusions Garan. I think it will be very useful for you to achieve your breakthrough from the Golden Core Realm to the Primordial Spirit Realm."

To emphasize the preciousness and rarity of this elixir, Bai Ke added, "This Thousand Illusion Garan can only have a slight chance of growing if planted on a full moon when dark clouds obscure the sky. It does not absorb moonlight but uses the essence of all spirits as nourishment, and it takes a hundred years for a single plant to take shape."

What a joke! Bai Ke is a major villain, not some lovelorn fool. Why would he do good deeds anonymously? He wants Ling Xin'er to know how much he's sacrificed for her, so that this little girl will follow him wholeheartedly, right?

Even the deepest feelings need strategies to maintain the relationship.

"Can it help people attain enlightenment in their dreams? Such an effective herb requires a hundred years to grow, it must be very precious, right? I... I can't accept it." After hearing Bai Ke's words, Ling Xin'er waved her hands repeatedly and refused.

Although she also wanted to break through to the Golden Core Realm and reach the Nascent Soul Realm as soon as possible so that her master would no longer be so angry, she could not covet her senior brother's precious pills.

Seeing Ling Xin'er's conflicted expression, Bai Ke couldn't help but feel a pang of tenderness in his heart. He gently advised, "Xin'er, although this Thousand Illusion Garan Pill is very precious, for me, a thousand or ten thousand elixirs are not as important as you in my heart."

Seeing that Ling Xin'er still did not agree, Bai Ke simply added fuel to the fire.

Bai Ke put his arm around Ling Xin'er and whispered, "Xin'er, not to mention the immense benefits that advancing from the Golden Core Realm to the Nascent Soul Realm will bring to you and your master, even for my sake, you must improve your strength as soon as possible."

"For you?" Ling Xin'er didn't immediately grasp the meaning behind Bai Ke's words.

“That’s right, for my sake. As you know, I’m going to participate in the Heavenly Strategy’s Holy Son Selection, but the selection conditions are harsh, and Lin Xiu and others are eyeing it covetously. If you can break through as soon as possible, Xin’er, wouldn’t that be a great help to me?” Bai Ke coaxed patiently.
