Chen Kuang habitually sits on the roof playing the zither.

—This has been a habit he developed over the past six years, conveniently allowing him to constantly observe the sky he once split open with a strike.

After finishing a piece, he lowers his head, but doesn’t see the Daoist Nun who used to often drop by over the past year.

In fact, ever since Lv Zhexiong went out last time, she hasn’t come to see Chen Kuang for seven days, nor has she left the temple; it seems she’s in seclusion.

Chen Kuang doesn’t think so, as her previous trip out was precisely to buy a gift.

Now, the gift hasn’t been delivered here, how could she suddenly go into seclusion?

Although Lv Zhexiong thought she was talking to herself in the temple before, in reality, the range of hundreds of miles around was all sensed by Chen Kuang’s Divine Sense.

In other words, every time Lv Zhexiong responded with her flute, he could hear it.

These clues can’t be called vague; rather, they’re blatantly presented to him!

Chen Kuang is not unaware, but he hasn’t figured out how to handle it yet.

When he noticed the signs, Chen Kuang felt a headache coming.

The most troublesome part of this situation is if they start a relationship and later he returns to his original timeline, what happens if he’s caught, how would he explain it to Shen Meinan?

Fortunately, since Lv Zhexiong is also embarrassed to speak up, he might as well pretend not to know...

A few days ago, Lv Zhexiong suddenly went out to buy a gift, making Chen Kuang feel that this might be a key turning point.

He’s been waiting for Lv Zhexiong to come over.

But he didn’t expect Lv Zhexiong’s decision to take seven days to consider.

This made Chen Kuang start worrying whether she really had a sudden epiphany to enter seclusion for a breakthrough?

Don’t let buying this gift stir her heart, drop her obsessions, and directly comprehend the world, forsaking emotions for the Dao...

Chen Kuang couldn’t help but mock inwardly.

Given the way Lv Zhexiong became in later generations, it might really be possible!

While thinking like this, Chen Kuang suddenly stopped playing the zither and looked towards the half-covered courtyard gate below.

After a few breaths, the familiar sound of knocking could be heard.

Chen Kuang subconsciously let out a sigh of relief, coughed twice before saying, "The door is unlocked, Fellow Daoist, please come in."

Lv Zhexiong gently steps forward, slowly pushing the door open and walking in.

In an instant, Chen Kuang’s eyes lit up—Lv Zhexiong’s appearance today was exceptionally different, incredibly stunning.

Although she’s still wearing a Daoist Robe, it’s not her usual plain black, but changed to a deep blue style, with a brighter color and a waist cincher inside, completely outlining her already slender waist.

This is an extremely subtle alteration, but Lv Zhexiong has an extremely voluptuous figure from top to bottom, and this cinching made her look like a gourd, very eye-catching.

Chen Kuang looked closely again, his Heart Spirit shook, stunned on the spot.

Her already beautiful face awkwardly had a hint of pale blush on the lips, seemingly disliking it too thick and intentionally washed it off several times with clear water, showing a hint of fullness and richness.

In his previous life, Chen Kuang had seen many women with top-notch makeup skills; Lv Zhexiong’s attempt doesn’t even qualify as makeup, looking like a child secretly using an adult’s lipstick clumsily.

But... it was precisely this clumsiness, contrasting with the usual hidden simplicity, that made Chen Kuang unable to resist.

Women dress to please those who admire them.

When she went out that day, she even specially bought mortal rouge?

Lv Zhexiong took a deep breath, not looking very nervous, bowing to Chen Kuang as usual.

Chen Kuang walked down and put the zither away.

Lv Zhexiong pinched the sachet hidden in her sleeve, having mentally prepared for seven days, but when faced with the moment, she still couldn’t speak.

The two were silent, with Lv Zhexiong’s increasingly rosy face showing on her expressionless features. 𝓯𝙧𝓮𝓮𝒘𝓮𝙗𝙣𝒐𝒗𝒆𝓵.𝓬𝓸𝒎

After a while.

Chen Kuang finally looked at Lv Zhexiong and proactively asked, "Today... shall we discuss Dao?"

Lv Zhexiong almost squeaked a reply like a mosquito, not even knowing how she managed to speak:

"Discuss... talk about Dao."

Chen Kuang glanced at her, maintained composure, turned towards the low table under the eaves, and said, "Today we happen to be out of tea leaves, apologies for the lack of hospitality, Fellow Daoist please forgive..."

Lv Zhexiong’s face was serious, suddenly stuttered and said without any modulation, "Ah, oh, the weather outside doesn’t seem very good, it dampens the mood, perhaps, perhaps let’s switch to the study?"

Weather not good?

Chen Kuang looked up at the sky, although there were quite a few clouds today, one could still see some sunshine...

But in the next moment, suddenly, a mass of pitch-black clouds surged from nowhere, covering the sky tightly!

"Boom!"

Following that, thunder roared! Lightning flashed like snakes!

"Woo woo!"

The wild wind blew, making the trees in the courtyard sway left and right.

"Splash..."

Then torrential rain poured down, drenching everything between heaven and earth thoroughly.

All this happened within a few breaths, catching people off guard.

Chen Kuang: "..."

He wordlessly took out the Sea Dust Fan, usually just a prop for style, gently fanned it, causing the rainwater about to fall in the courtyard to reverse flow back up to the sky.

This Sea Dust Fan indeed had the power to move the ocean like dust.

Chen Kuang, while shaking the fan, thoughtfully watched the sky.

Such effortless summoning of wind and rain is indeed the true means of a deity.

Did an expert intervene?

That expert is quite idle to do this sort of thing for Lv Zhexiong...

But since things have come to this stage, naturally Chen Kuang can only cooperate.

He looked back at Lv Zhexiong and said earnestly, "Since that’s the case, there’s no choice... Fellow Daoist, please come with me."
