Chapter 362 His Stubborn Temper Rises
His target was Zhong Lingxin, not these flirtatious women.
He secretly focused his divine sense on Zhong Lingxin.
I saw Zhong Lingxin lower her eyes and count the pills in front of her.
For a moment, he couldn't figure out if Zhong Lingxin wasn't interested in him or if she was jealous.
At this moment, he felt a little annoyed that he had been out of touch with the crowd for too long, so long that he had forgotten how the fairy had enthusiastically thrown herself into his arms.
What a blunder, a complete blunder.
Hopefully, Zhong Lingxin, being so stubborn, won't back down.
The sparkling look in her eyes was still lingering in his heart.
The spaceship was already full, with all the immortals from the third, fourth, and fifth floors crammed into the second floor, making it extremely crowded.
For a while, everyone was busy defending against the enemy and didn't really notice how crowded the ship's cabins were.
Now, the already crowded cabin was crammed with several hundred people that Yiren had brought in from outside.
After repelling the powerful enemy, the immortals, now relaxed, just wanted a place to rest as soon as possible.
As a result, the crowded cabin was filled with the chaotic sounds of people jostling and stepping on each other.
A celestial being shouted at Captain Zhang to quickly open the third, fourth, and fifth floors, instead of everyone crowding into the second floor.
Captain Zhang complied with the request and quickly opened the doors to the third, fourth, and fifth decks.
The immortals swarmed upstairs.
Yi Ren breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly returned to his room.
He wanted to greet Zhong Lingxin at the door of the guest room so that they could visit each other for tea, talk about cultivation and ideals for the rest of the journey, and find common ground.
Zhong Lingxin watched Yi Ren's back as he walked ahead of her, silently wondering which fairy would ask to switch rooms with her, and how many fairy stones she should extort from that fairy.
As the immortals on the third and fourth floors returned to their places, the number of immortals at the entrance of the fifth-floor staircase noticeably decreased.
Yi Ren casually turned around and saw Zhong Lingxin following behind him. He waved his hand in a gesture of invitation.
It means he is a gentleman and asks the fairy to go first.
The two had already met when they first entered the guest room and remembered that the other was their neighbor, so they naturally chatted as they walked forward.
"Master, you have worked hard to save our entire boatload of people. Please go first."
"Not at all, little fairy. I see you are also very serious about refining pills, just as hard-working. You should go first, little fairy."
"Grandmaster, please go first. How could I, a junior, dare to overstep your bounds? Please, Grandmaster."
"Hehe, little fairy, you're too kind. I'm just a few years older than you. What grandmaster are you talking about? With more practice, little fairy, you might just become a grandmaster of alchemy."
"Really? Thank you for the praise, Grandmaster. I can't do that; my success rate in making pills is too low."
"When I was controlling the array, I watched your alchemy. You probably lacked guidance and your technique was not refined enough. A success rate of 40% is already extremely impressive."
"Really? Thank you so much, Master. I will definitely be more careful in refining pills."
"Hehe, little fairy, alchemy isn't something you can just be meticulous about whenever you want. Your technique isn't refined enough, probably because you lack guidance. Little fairy, your master's alchemy skills probably aren't very high either."
"No, my master is very powerful; he's already a sixth-grade alchemist."
A sneer came from the side: "Pfft!"
Seeing that she was almost at the door of the room, Zhong Lingxin deliberately glanced at the sneering fairy and quickened her pace to the door.
Yi Ren also stepped forward, placed his hand on Zhong Lingxin's door, and said sincerely to Zhong Lingxin, "Little fairy, don't be angry. It's my fault. I shouldn't have said that your technique wasn't refined enough."
I didn't mean anything by it. The years of cultivating immortality are long, and I've also dabbled in alchemy.
Since we're both fine on the spaceship, how about I teach you a few alchemy techniques as an apology?
At this point, Yi Ren bowed to Zhong Lingxin with a very sincere attitude.
Zhong Lingxin was extremely disappointed that she couldn't rush into the room, but she didn't show it on her face. She took a deep breath to calm herself down, looked at the sneering fairy, and said firmly, "Thank you, but no need."
Yi Ren took one look and exclaimed, "Oh dear, Xiao Bi's stubborn temper is flaring up!"
It's good to have such a stubborn little temper; he's obviously inexperienced in the ways of the world.
So gullible!
He became even more sincere: "The spaceship will take several more years to arrive, so please don't be angry, little fairy. You have an extremely high talent for alchemy, little fairy. You can refine fifth-grade pills at such a young age, which is better than most alchemists."
Zhong Lingxin's expression softened slightly.
The fairy who had sneered at Zhong Lingxin was about to speak when she was pulled away by the fairy beside her.
Yi Ren opened his own guest room door and, with great poise, gestured for Zhong Lingxin to enter his room as well.
Zhong Lingxin knew that Yi Ren would definitely find an excuse to pester her, so there was no need to be too pretentious. She smiled, thanked Yi Ren, and went into her room.
Yi Ren returned to his room with a sullen face.
Damn it, this fairy girl is obviously very well protected by her family. He could have taken the opportunity to chat with her a bit more and ask her out for tea, given his excellent performance earlier. But who knew that troublemaker would show up halfway through?
We need to think of another way.
Judging from the little fairy's behavior just now, she seemed to be very interested in alchemy, so he would start with alchemy.
Yi Ren's contracted beast, a golden-winged roc, landed in front of him and reminded him, "Something's not right with the little fairy. She has nine purple lines on her head and is so naive. How could she have boarded the ship to the Middle Realm all by herself?"
Yi Ren nodded: "The fairy has nine purple lines above her head, so I don't dare to cast a divination for her lightly. This is exactly what I can't understand. I wanted to find an opportunity to chat with her and ask her, but a stupid woman ruined it."
The Golden-Winged Roc is a ninth-tier divine beast. Without any hesitation, he enveloped the entire spaceship with his divine sense and said with a hint of schadenfreude, "Don't think about the little fairy next door for now. A fairy has come knocking on your door."
Oh, there's more than one. This is going to be interesting.
Haha, two of them are even after the girl next door! Oh no, your advantage of being so close to her is gone!
Sure enough, the two fairies who rushed over first knocked on Zhong Lingxin's door defense array.
Zhong Lingxin could see clearly through the defensive array, and she was overjoyed, thinking that the immortal stones had arrived.
On the surface, however, her face darkened. She opened the door and, through the defensive array, asked the two fairies at the entrance, "Who are you? Did you knock on the wrong door?"
The two fairies looked at each other and said to Zhong Lingxin in unison, "I am from 508 (562), fairy. We are on the same boat. The journey is long. I have fairy fruit (fairy wine) with me and would like to have a word with you, fairy sister."
The two fairies simultaneously raised the gifts in their hands and spoke to Zhong Lingxin in a sincere tone.
Yi Ren, who was in the room, saw everything clearly. He cursed under his breath. Even a fool could figure out what those two fairies were up to.
They were simply thinking the same thing as him, hoping to take advantage of their proximity.
Damn it, he went to so much trouble, he can't let the little fairy slip away from him.
