Chapter 605 – Sudden Breakthrough
Bai Xiuxiu blushed. “Little brat, go away.” With that, she ran over to Nana.
Looking at the T-shirt in his hand, Lan Xuanyu felt a sense of warmth in his heart. He finally felt that shopping was actually quite good.
The day was peaceful and fulfilling. They had dinner at a restaurant in the mall and the food was delicious, but whether it was Nana, Lan Xuanyu, or Bai Xiuxiu, they were all very satisfied.
By the time they returned to Nana’s dormitory, the sky was already completely dark.
Lan Xuanyu didn’t even bother to take a shower before lying down on the bed. The feeling of relaxation gave him an indescribable sense of laziness.
This was a day without soul power, bloodline power, soul planes, mechas, and Battle Armors.
He suddenly felt that such an ordinary day was quite wonderful.
Every now and then, images of Nana and Bai Xiuxiu trying on clothes would flash in his mind. What a beautiful scene!
It would be great if he could live a normal life like this. At this moment, he was at a loss. He should have been able to live like this. What was the point of cultivating? With so many ordinary people who couldn’t cultivate their Martial Souls, weren’t they living happily?
“Take a shower, you’ll feel better after sleeping.” Nana walked in and sat next to Lan Xuanyu.
“Teacher Nana, why do you think we need to cultivate?” Lan Xuanyu moved closer to her.
Nana touched his cheek and said, “Didn’t you tell me before that you have to work hard to cultivate to protect you mom and the people you want to protect?”
Lan Xuanyu was stunned and immediately recalled the feeling of helplessness when he faced the bandits in that building. This was also the reason why he had such a bad impression of Heaven Planet and didn’t hesitate to destroy it.
“What about you? Why are you cultivating?” Lan Xuanyu asked.
Nana said, “I don’t remember it in the past. Now, it would be just for protecting you guys.”
Lan Xuanyu smiled and moved to Nana’s side. He laid his head on her leg and hugged her waist. At this moment, he suddenly felt extremely at ease, as though his entire being was enveloped by warmth.
Nana caressed his hair gently with a faint smile on her face. “Actually, it doesn’t matter whether you guys cultivate or become stronger. I will still watch over both of you.”
Lan Xuanyu didn’t reply because he was already asleep. Yes, he fell asleep instantly and his brows were relaxed and he had a smile on his face.
In the next few days, Nana didn’t let them cultivate and only brought them around Mingdu City. Mingdu City had a long history and had many famous historical sites, including the Parliament Plaza and some historical imprints that had been left over for 10,000 years. They were all worth looking at. They even went to the Sun Moon Mountain Range next to Mingdu City to play for an entire day. Only when they climbed the mountain did Lan Xuanyu remember that he was a Soul Master.
The days of relaxation and play lasted for an entire week.
Ever since they started cultivating, Lan Xuanyu and Bai Xiuxiu had never been lazy for such a long time. This wonderful feeling of being completely relaxed made their bodies feel very comfortable.
They didn’t need to think, they didn’t need to be wise and strong. They just had to be themselves, being a young boy and girl of 12 or 13 years old.
“Alright, you guys have been relaxing for the past week. If you want to cultivate, you can start meditating tonight. If you want to rest, that’s fine too.” Upon returning to their accommodation, Nana announced that the comfortable days were over.
That’s right, for the past few days, Lan Xuanyu and Bai Xiuxiu didn’t even meditate and went straight to bed every night. Lan Xuanyu even clung onto Nana and she had to pat his head before he was willing to fall asleep. With regards to this, Bai Xiuxiu was extremely envious but she didn’t fight with him. Nana let him be and waited for him to fall asleep before leaving every night.
Over the past week, Lan Xuanyu and Bai Xiuxiu’s complexion had become especially good. They were already good looking, and now, their skin was fair and rosy, brimming with the aura of youth and sunshine.
“I choose to sleep.” Lan Xuanyu raised his hand and giggled. He really enjoyed the feeling of Teacher Nana stroking his hair every day. It was simply too wonderful.
“No, you can’t be lazy anymore. You must meditate tonight,” Bai Xiuxiu said righteously. Then, she pulled Lan Xuanyu, who was walking towards Nana.
Lan Xuanyu: “Are you jealous? One last day, alright?”
Bai Xiuxiu snorted and said, “Tomorrow is the Day of Rejuvenation, how many tomorrows are there? This matter is over today. Quick, let’s meditate. I’ll go with you and watch over you.”
As she spoke, Bai Xiuxiu pulled him into the room and prepared to watch him meditate.
Nana had a smile on her face as she watched them enter the room, but for some reason, she felt a sense of loss.
She coaxed Lan Xuanyu to sleep every night and not only did he feel warm and comfortable, but she also liked that feeling. It made her feel a warmth she had never felt before, as though she was supposed to be by his side. That feeling of peace was the best she had felt since she was revived.
“Xiuxiu, you’re just jealous, right?” Lan Xuanyu looked at Bai Xiuxiu, who had closed the door, and said in annoyance.
Bai Xiuxiu pursed her lips and said, “That’s right, I’m just jealous, what’s wrong with that? You’re occupying Teacher Nana every day, it’s too much. Also, it’s time for us to cultivate. If we continue to be lazy, what will we do when we return to the academy? We haven’t cultivated for a week and I reckon that we’ve regressed. Let’s take advantage of the few days before school starts and recover quickly.”
Lan Xuanyu didn’t know what to do with her. In fact, Lan Xuanyu agreed with what she said. There were only a few days left until school reopened and he had to be nervous. Otherwise, if he were to regress after school reopened, the teachers would not let him off!
“Alright, let’s meditate.” Lan Xuanyu gave the bed to Bai Xiuxiu and sat down on the carpet.
Seeing him meditate obediently, for some reason, Bai Xiuxiu couldn’t bear it. She walked to his side subconsciously and touched his hair.
Lan Xuanyu opened his eyes and looked at Bai Xiuxiu in a daze.
At this moment, Bai Xiuxiu was also looking at him. When their eyes met, Bai Xiuxiu’s face immediately turned red. She leaped up, jumped onto the bed, and sat cross-legged. “Meditate.” But from her rapid breathing and her slightly undulating chest, it seemed like it wouldn’t be easy for her to enter a peaceful state of meditation.
Lan Xuanyu was still reminiscing about that moment.
Nana’s hand was warm and gentle, and when she caressed his hair, there would always be waves of warmth. Bai Xiuxiu’s fingers were a little cold, cool and slender, and when she touched him, it didn’t give Lan Xuanyu a sense of relaxation and warmth, but a tremor that came from his soul.
In the end, both of them sat cross-legged and didn’t manage to enter a state of meditation for a long time. Invisibly, they felt a faint sense of charm and gentleness; it was the beauty of being young and ignorant. There was nothing else, just a pleasant feeling in their hearts.
Lan Xuanyu didn’t know when he entered into a state of meditation. He only felt that everything around him had turned gentle and everything had gradually calmed down. Unknowingly, he had entered the state of meditation.
His soul power circulated naturally and was no different from before. His bloodline vortex was the same as well. Everything was silent but normal.
Lan Xuanyu didn’t realize that after a week of rest, he entered a particularly calm state when he meditated again. This was the deep meditation state that he hadn’t experienced for a long time.
