Volume 4: Transformation into Mystery Chapter 528 The long-lost taste
This is Shen Luoyan’s pleasure.
She and Li Xuanfeng had been separated for many years, and her heart had long been filled with longing for him. She was reluctant to separate at this moment, so she kept finding things to do with Li Xuanfeng.
Because they did not use the power of cultivation, it took the two of them a lot of effort to tidy up the entire room. Although they were not tired, Shen Luoyan still pulled Li Xuanfeng with a charming face to sit down at the table in the middle of the room to rest.
While tidying up the room, Li Xuanfeng's eyes almost never left Shen Luoyan, as if he could never see enough of her.
Since returning to Xuanling Sect, Li Xuanfeng's eyes rarely left Shen Luoyan, as if he was a shadow, following Shen Luoyan closely.
Although seeing Li Xuanfeng's extremely gentle gaze, Shen Luoyan seemed to feel a burning sensation, as if it could melt her.
Feeling this, Shen Luoyan's face turned red. She had no choice but to take the teapot and pour a cup of tea for herself and Li Xuanfeng, and said coquettishly: "What are you looking at? Drink tea!"
Hearing this, Li Xuanfeng took a sip from his teacup and said with a smile, "Li is looking at his future wife."
"Look at how proud you are. Who wants to be your wife?" Hearing his words, Shen Luoyan's face turned even redder and she couldn't help but say coquettishly.
"Someone said not long ago that she would marry no one else but me, and she also agreed to let our master arrange the marriage." Li Xuanfeng joked with a smile.
Seeing Li Xuanfeng's leisurely look, Shen Luoyan rolled her eyes and threatened fiercely: "I was impulsive at the moment. Do you believe I will regret it immediately?"
"I won't dare to do it again. Senior sister, please don't take back your previous impulse." After hearing this, Li Xuanfeng's expression changed slightly and he immediately begged for mercy.
Although Li Xuanfeng knew that she was just joking in a slightly annoyed manner, he should still give in to her in this matter and not really annoy her.
"Hmph, that's better." Seeing Li Xuanfeng finally begging for mercy, Shen Luoyan nodded with satisfaction, looking quite proud.
Seeing his senior sister’s proud look, Li Xuanfeng smiled even more.
Although the two of them have been separated for several years, there is no strangeness or estrangement between them, and they still get along the same way as before.
At this moment, the voice-transmitting jade slips of Li Xuanfeng and Shen Luoyan vibrated. It was the third senior brother Chen Gen who was telling them to come over for dinner.
The two of them immediately stood up and went to the living room in the center of Huayue Garden.
On the way, Li Xuanfeng raised his hand to hold Shen Luoyan again, but she dodged with a red face, glared at him and said, "My parents and all the brothers will be watching you later."
A smile appeared on Li Xuanfeng's lips. He knew that she was not yet able to be too intimate with him in front of others, so he respected her wishes and did not forcefully hold her hand.
Soon, the two of them walked into the living room of Huayueyuan side by side. Shen Hua and others were already sitting at the dining table waiting.
At this time, the table was already filled with dishes, with more than ten dishes, including chicken, duck, fish and meat.
Moreover, what Han Yue used was not ordinary chicken, duck or fish, but a kind of spiritual creature raised in the Xuanling Sect. It absorbed a lot of spiritual power, making the dishes more fragrant.
At this time, Second Brother Zhu Lie could no longer take his eyes off the dishes in front of him. He even kept swallowing his saliva, as if he was a homeless man who had been hungry for several days and saw food.
Just after leaving the courtyard where Shen Luoyan lived, Han Yue took Wen Xiaowan to start cooking, and Li Xuanfeng's three senior brothers also helped to prepare the ingredients, so that this sumptuous dinner was prepared in a short time.
Seeing Li Xuanfeng and Shen Luoyan walking in side by side, Shen Hua smiled and nodded, motioning for them to sit down, and the two of them found two adjacent seats and sat down.
"Everyone is here, let's start eating." Shen Hua said with a smile when he saw Li Xuanfeng and the other person sitting down.
After hearing Shen Hua's words, Zhu Lie immediately began to eat voraciously, completely disregarding his image. He even began to look at the delicious food in front of the senior brother sitting next to him...
Seeing Zhu Lie's appearance, the others shook their heads and smiled, then began to taste the delicacies. They had not tasted their master's wife's cooking for a long time.
Ever since Junior Brother Li Xuanfeng disappeared from the Moon Sea Secret Realm, everyone's time has been spent almost entirely in searching and retreating, and Han Yue has no time to prepare any more dishes.
Now that Li Xuanfeng has returned safely, everyone can enjoy this sumptuous dinner with peace of mind.
"Junior brother, you don't know that in the years since you left, we have never tasted the cooking of our master's wife." Chen Gen smiled helplessly.
Li Xuanfeng tasted his master's wife Han Yue's cooking again and found that it had not deteriorated at all because it had not been made for a long time. Instead, it was even more delicious. He couldn't help but think of his mother's cooking that he tasted every day when he was a child.
Thinking of his parents, a trace of sadness and persistence emerged in Li Xuanfeng's eyes, and he thought firmly in his heart that no matter how difficult it was, he must avenge his parents and retrieve his father's body!
Li Xuanfeng's three senior brothers had not tasted Han Yue's cooking for a long time and missed it quite a bit. Although they were not feeling hungry due to their practice, they still quickly cleared the dishes on the table.
After seeing that most of the delicious dishes on the table had been eaten, Zhu Lie put down his chopsticks and asked with a smile: "Junior brother, where have you been in the past few years? Have you encountered any danger?"
After hearing Zhu Lie's words, Shen Hua and others all turned their eyes to Li Xuanfeng, and they were all extremely curious about this matter.
Seeing that everyone was so interested, Li Xuanfeng glanced at his senior sister Shen Luoyan, and when he saw her nod slightly, he began to tell her about what happened in Cangyu Continent.
It starts from being teleported to the Cangyu Continent, then entering the Colorful Secret Realm, and finally a war breaks out between the three major sects of the Cangyu Continent.
Li Xuanfeng briefly recounted almost everything that had happened, the only things he did not mention were some secrets that needed to be concealed.
For example, the mystery of the Purple Destroying Stick was not mentioned. This matter is of too great a significance. If other major forces knew that the Purple Destroying Stick is a magic weapon above the third level, it would inevitably attract the fight for by countless powerful people, which would be enough to bring about a catastrophe to the Tongling Continent and even the entire Duling Star!
After hearing Li Xuanfeng's story, although his tone was calm and calm, Shen Hua and others were already extremely shocked and didn't even know what to say.
They never imagined that Li Xuanfeng had experienced so many dangers in Cangyu Continent, and was even caught by a strong man in the second realm, and might die at any time!
Being captured by a strong man in the second realm, the other party might be able to kill Li Xuanfeng in an instant with just a thought!
After hearing Li Xuanfeng's account of his thrilling experience, Shen Luoyan's eyes were filled with deep heartache. Regardless of the presence of her parents and several senior brothers, she stretched out her jade hand and tightly grasped Li Xuanfeng's hand, as if she wanted to give him her warmth to comfort him.
Li Xuanfeng patted her jade hand gently, showing a very gentle smile, indicating that she don't need to worry.
After hearing about Li Xuanfeng's thrilling experience, everyone in Huayue Garden fell silent instantly. Finally, Zhu Lie spoke first, and asked with a deliberately curious smile.
"Junior brother, how strong are the second-level masters?"
This was to ease the atmosphere at the moment, because after Li Xuanfeng told the story of what happened in Cangyu Continent and learned about his thrilling experience alone, Shen Hua and others felt very uncomfortable.
Hearing Zhu Lie's words, everyone including Shen Hua was shocked. They had never experienced a true second-level strongman in person and were quite curious about this.
"A strong person in the second realm can use the power of artistic conception that he has realized. The power of his magic is no longer comparable to that of a cultivator in the first realm." Li Xuanfeng explained in a deep voice.
"What is the power of artistic conception?" After hearing Li Xuanfeng's explanation, Zhu Lie asked again in confusion.
When Li Xuanfeng's senior brothers heard the name "power of artistic conception", they were completely confused and had no idea what it was exactly.
"I don't know what the power of artistic conception is specifically. It is like a mysterious Tao. It can be the Tao of heaven and earth, or the Tao of the human world. A cultivator must comprehend his own Tao before he can break through to the second realm."
Li Xuanfeng pondered for a moment and then told all his current understanding of artistic conception.
If one really wants to explain in detail what the power of artistic conception is, Li Xuanfeng is simply unable to do it now.
For cultivators who have not yet entered the second realm, their understanding of the power of artistic conception comes from classics or from other people.
Only when you truly comprehend your own artistic conception and break through to the second level of cultivation can you truly understand what artistic conception is.
This is the biggest reason why countless cultivators stop at the perfection of the Spirit God Realm!
The power of artistic conception is too mysterious. It can only be understood but not expressed in words. It cannot be known by listening to others talk about it. You can only rely on your own understanding.
Li Xuanfeng's talk about the power of the second realm and the state of mind really dispelled most of the worries in everyone's hearts about him, and now they all fell into deep thought.
Even Shen Hua, who had entered the Spirit God Realm for more than a hundred years, still had no idea about the second realm.
Shen Hua knew before that there seemed to be an insurmountable chasm between him and the second realm. Although it seemed that there was only one step difference, it was actually out of reach.
Originally, Shen Hua could already see the end of his life, which was that his cultivation would remain forever at the Perfect Spiritual God Realm until his life ended and he would completely disappear from this world.
But after hearing Li Xuanfeng's narration at this time, he seemed to have a vague understanding of the power of artistic conception, which gave him a glimmer of hope of breaking through to the second realm.
As a cultivator who practices against the will of heaven, no one will ever be truly satisfied with his or her own level of cultivation. There is no end to cultivation, and the heart of a cultivator is also endless.
If he could realize his own artistic conception and break through his cultivation that had been stagnant for many years, Shen Hua would not give up even if there was only a glimmer of hope.
Listening to Li Xuanfeng's explanation of the power of artistic conception, everyone else fell into deep thought, wondering what the power of artistic conception was exactly.
Among the crowd, only Shen Luoyan seemed to be uninterested in the power of artistic conception. At this moment, her gaze was still fixed on Li Xuanfeng with an extremely gentle look.
After hearing Li Xuanfeng's account of his understanding of the second realm, and as if thinking of the dangers he had experienced again, Shen Luoyan's jade hand grasped Li Xuanfeng's big hand a little tighter, like a child who holds on to a beloved thing tightly for fear of losing it.
