Chapter 854 - 255: [Ghost]_4

The reason Chen Yan came to find Chu Keqing was quite simple...
"I need a practice room." Standing in Chu Keqing’s small courtyard, Chen Yan made his request to the Academy’s headmaster.
Chu Keqing looked a bit surprised, glanced at Chen Yan, and smiled, "Senior, the place you live is rich in Primordial Qi. In the entire Jinling Prefecture... hmm, no, in the entire world, I’m afraid there isn’t a better place for cultivation than where you live, so why do you come to ask this junior..."
"It’s inconvenient to cultivate at home." Chen Yan waved his hand: "Don’t ask too many questions, just help me arrange it."
Chu Keqing was curious, but seeing Chen Yan’s attitude, she thought it’s better not to ask further.
After a brief consideration, Chu Keqing said, "Well then, use my practice room."
Chu Keqing’s practice room was located in the backyard of the small courtyard.
A finely decorated and elegant courtyard, a room, brick, and wood structure, in the style of ancient architecture.
However, Chen Yan noticed that this house wasn’t quite ordinary!
"This house, though styled in imitation of ancient times, actually has bricks, wooden window bars, and door panels all taken from genuine old houses.
The materials are all good stuff that has been around for hundreds of years, and such old objects carry a certain amount of Spiritual Qi. I just collected a batch and built this house here."
Chu Keqing smiled, inviting Chen Yan to enter her practice room.
Indeed, there was a slight sense of Primordial Qi flowing here, though very faint.
Inside the room, there was a soft couch, a meditation cushion, an incense burner, and a tea table.
But...
Looking at the girlish pink meditation cushion, Chen Yan fell into thought.
Chu Keqing blushed slightly, lowered her head, and after inviting Chen Yan to sit down, she herself knelt in front of Chen Yan, making tea and burning incense.
"Senior, is this place suitable? If anything is lacking, you just order, I will arrange it immediately."
"Uh... it’s quite good." Chen Yan sat on the girlish pink cushion and couldn’t help shifting a bit.
The woman knelt in front of Chen Yan, her body intentionally leaning slightly forward, Chen Yan noticed Chu Keqing’s overly ample curves, and after a glance, he immediately looked away.
"Hmm... regarding the trip to Port City to find the Yang Family, you did well."
"Senior, you’re still being so polite and distant with me." Chu Keqing gave Chen Yan a wistful glance.
Chen Yan thought for a moment and took out a few Nourishing God Pills: "Take one each week, it can nourish your Primordial Spirit."
Chu Keqing’s eyes lit up as she received them with both hands.
Chen Yan thought for a moment, then took out a Bone Forging Pill: "The strength of your physical body has improved, so you can continue to use the Bone Forging Pill. But every time, it’s best to cut it into quarters with a knife and take one piece... too much, and your current physical state won’t be able to handle it.
But in a few months, the strength of your body might just barely catch up to ordinary cultivators at the same level."
Chu Keqing detected a hint of something and said softly, "Senior... the cultivators from ’that world,’ is their physical strength much greater than ours here?"
"Yes, without using spells, a punch could kill ten like you." Chen Yan smiled: "And with spells, they are also basic operations over there."
Chu Keqing’s eyes showed a trace of longing: "That’s the legendary world of the Cultivation civilization."
After a pause, Chu Keqing lowered her eyelids and murmured, "I wonder if I’ll have the chance in this life to go to that world and witness the flourishing scene of cultivators everywhere..."
Chen Yan looked at Chu Keqing: "Perhaps there might be a chance, the future is yet to be known. However... that world may not be as idyllic as you imagine it to be..."
