Put Away Your Divine Techniques Now!

Chapter 671 - 205: [Ordinary Mortal?]

"Hmm, that’s what they say, but..." Chen Yan sighed and turned Lu Sisi’s body so her eyes met his: "But there’s still a difference. I’m soon going to break through in my cultivation realm again, and my lifespan will be at least a few hundred years in the future.

As for you... even if you use Bone Forging Pill and wine with Divine Tree Juice.

But as long as you don’t cultivate, your body won’t be nourished by the Spiritual Qi of heaven and earth. Even if you have the Bone Forging Pill and Divine Tree Juice, without Primordial Qi to digest these medicinal effects, the transformation to your body will be limited.

I’ve estimated that, in this way, your lifespan will increase up to one hundred fifty years at the most."

Lu Sisi smiled, but she shifted her gaze away from Chen Yan’s eyes and said softly, "One hundred fifty years is already very long life.

I’m eighteen years old now, not even twenty, so I have one hundred thirty-two years until I die, there’s still a long time to go."

After that, Lu Sisi acted as if she was very relaxed. Her tone also seemed very relaxed, as if she had put thoughts of cultivation behind her head, pulling Chen Yan out of the study.

In the kitchen, Lu Sisi personally cooked some breakfast. After accompanying Chen Yan to eat, she pulled him out again during the day.

The two of them were just like ordinary young couples, shopping, watching movies, and going to the park to row boats on the lake.

During the summer season, Lu Sisi wore a short skirt and camisole, holding Chen Yan’s hand like an ordinary young couple, snuggling and playfully acting spoiled.

For several days, the two lived the easygoing everyday life of an ordinary young couple. Lu Sisi never brought up cultivation again, and whenever Chen Yan mentioned it, Lu Sisi would promptly say: we have a long time still, no need to think about things a hundred years from now.

Seeing Lu Sisi’s behavior, Chen Yan knew his girlfriend was intentionally acting this way to ease his mind, but he also knew this matter couldn’t be rushed for now, so he put his thoughts aside, wholeheartedly accompanying Lu Sisi.

A few days later.

This day, Chen Yan and Lu Sisi drove out from the city to a fruit orchard in Jiangbei to pick fresh fruit.

This suburban orchard business was based on the concept of allowing tourists to pick fruits themselves.

They grew strawberries and peach trees, both of which were ripe this season.

Lu Sisi, with her youthful and lively nature, went around the orchard carrying a basket. Seeing the red strawberries and peaches hanging on the branches, she couldn’t resist picking a few here and there.

Before they knew it, the two crates they brought from the entrance were filled up.

When they left and weighed them, they realized they had unknowingly picked over forty pounds!

The business rule of this orchard was: tourists take the crate in hand to pick—however much you pick, you must buy, and the price is clearly marked before entering the orchard.

Lu Sisi was dumbfounded looking at the two big bags of strawberries and peaches and couldn’t help but regret a bit: "How did we end up picking so much unconsciously?"

She looked at Chen Yan and smiled wryly: "You didn’t stop me either."

Chen Yan waved his hand: "Seeing you so happy picking, I didn’t want to stop you."

He didn’t mind at all—more is just more, it’s worth it to make Lu Sisi happy for half a day, even if it means wasting some fruit.

Besides, it might not be wasted; if they can’t finish it themselves at home, isn’t there still an old tortoise in the house?

Gui Geng is a transformed demon race, and he can eat quite a bit.

And besides, won’t Big White be able to eat a few peaches... right?

After quickly scanning to pay, Chen Yan stuffed more than forty pounds of fruit into the car’s trunk.

However, he glanced at this orchard again and suddenly felt a thought occur. He went over to speak with the boss, exchanged a few words, and added the boss on WeChat.

Lu Sisi waited in the car for Chen Yan, and when she saw him return, she smiled and asked: "What did you say to the boss?"

"I bought something." Chen Yan thought for a moment and smiled: "We have a Spirit Gathering Array at home, the Primordial Qi is rich, which is a great place for growing spiritual grasses and plants. But, we haven’t got any immortal roots or spiritual plants, so this good spot has been left empty. I ordered a few fruit tree saplings from the boss. They’ll be delivered to our home in a few days, and we’ll plant them in our yard to give it a try, see what we can grow."

Upon hearing this, Lu Sisi grew interested as well, and on the way home, she was sitting in the passenger seat, researching various related fruit tree planting materials on her phone.

The two drove back to their home, and as Chen Yan pulled the car into the garage, he noticed a piece of paper hung on the garden gate.

He jumped out of the car, walked over, and picked it up to see a piece of folded white paper with a bird crudely sketched on it.

The drawing was crude and immature, like a child’s scribble.

However, Chen Yan immediately knew who had left it there.

Lu Sisi also got out of the car and looked at Chen Yan: "What’s that?"

"Nothing, probably a doodle from one of the neighborhood kids." Chen Yan casually handed the paper to Lu Sisi, who glanced at it without much thought.

·

That night, Lu Sisi did not practice or meditate anymore—in fact, ever since the effect of the Spirit Communication Pill had worn off, she hadn’t practiced cultivation.

In the evening, she leaned on the sofa with Chen Yan to watch some TV, snuggling her shapely body into Chen Yan’s arms, nibbling on snacks while watching a variety show, occasionally feeding him a bite.
