Chapter 47: Dream Emotional Brick

Su Jingzhen had just reached the second floor when Feng Qingya was already waiting for him at the staircase.

“Master, let’s go. I’ll take you to see something,” Feng Qingya said without elaborating.

Feng Qingya turned around and led the way, seemingly heading towards the same private room as before.

Su Jingzhen, however, was silently reciting the “Clear Mind Incantation” in his heart.

Although Feng Qingya appeared to be leading the way, she was actually deliberately teasing him.

Her purple, figure-hugging long skirt accentuated her perfect physique, and her captivating gait was still swaying rhythmically.

Which young man, whether in the cultivation world or on Earth, wouldn’t be mesmerized by such a captivating sight?

“Clear mind like water, water like mind, gentle breeze without waves, ripples without disturbance, secluded and quiet, long and tranquil…”

As Su Jingzhen recited the incantation, he felt the flames of desire in his heart slowly dying down.

He was amazed that the “Clear Mind Incantation” seemed to be quite effective even in the cultivation world.

He warned himself to be vigilant, realizing that his past debates with others might have been mere superficial knowledge.

Feng Qingya, with her extraordinary charm, seemed to be intentionally tempting him.

In the face of such temptation, if he weren’t Su Jingzhen, a man with a strong sense of self-awareness and determination, he would have already fallen prey.

Feng Qingya, walking ahead, had a faint smile on her lips.

She thought to herself, “A young man who hasn’t even reached the Foundation Establishment stage, let’s see how long you can resist my charms.”

As she thought this, Feng Qingya led Su Jingzhen to the same private room as before.

Feng Qingya casually leaned against the fox-fur-covered chair, her enchanting figure once again on full display.

Su Jingzhen glanced around the room but didn’t see the brick-shaped artifact Feng Qingya had mentioned.

He asked, “Where is the object you mentioned, Miss Feng?”

Upon hearing this, Feng Qingya covered her mouth with her hand and smiled, asking, “Master, do you think I’m beautiful?”

This question caught Su Jingzhen off guard.

As Feng Qingya asked this, her eyes flickered towards Su Jingzhen, her charm growing even more intense.

“Clear mind like water, water like mind…”

Seeing this, Su Jingzhen once again silently recited the “Clear Mind Incantation”.

He knew that no matter how powerful or wealthy one was before crossing over, once they became a woman’s plaything, they were finished.

Su Jingzhen was well aware of his exceptional talent in alchemy and its effects on the people of Treasure Gathering Pavilion.

He also understood Feng Qingya’s intentions behind her actions.

Moreover, he knew that he must not fall prey to her charms.

He regretted not bringing Shuang Jiang along, as Feng Qingya wouldn’t dare to behave so brazenly if Shuang Jiang were present.

While reciting the “Clear Mind Incantation” in his heart, he calmly responded:

“Miss Feng, you are indeed beautiful, but as cultivators, our goal should be the Dao, and physical appearance is merely a bonus. You should focus on cultivation, not get distracted by superficial things.”

As he spoke, Su Jingzhen remained extremely calm, unaffected by Feng Qingya’s charms, and even conveyed a hint of teaching.

If Feng Qingya hadn’t already determined that Su Jingzhen was just a naive cultivator, she might have been cautious upon hearing his words.

However, she was now even more interested in him.

Su Jingzhen’s unexpected responses had surprised her, and she felt a sense of accomplishment in conquering such a challenging prey.

She smiled and said, “It seems that my heart is lacking, and my Dao heart is not firm. You’re making fun of me, Master.”

Su Jingzhen nodded silently in response.

But before he could say anything else, his heart was shaken once again.

Because, in front of him, a line of golden text had suddenly appeared:

【Emotional Connection with Feng Qingya reached: No Hostility

Reward points: 10

Level bonus: 1x

Cultivation bonus: 2x!】

【Remaining usable points: 215】

He was shocked to discover that he had unintentionally activated an emotional connection with Feng Qingya, simply by interacting with her a few times.

Moreover, Feng Qingya’s cultivation level bonus had reached 2x!

This meant that Feng Qingya’s cultivation level was at least at the Foundation Establishment stage!

This was no ordinary person.

Su Jingzhen’s heart was racing, but he recalled that Shuang Jiang had also formed an emotional connection with him without much interaction, so he felt relieved.

After all, his exceptional alchemy skills had indeed impressed Feng Qingya, earning her admiration and shock.

Although unexpected, this was an unexpected delight.

Forming an emotional connection with Feng Qingya, now at least at the No Hostility level, meant that his concerns about his safety in Treasure Gathering Pavilion had disappeared.

And this was another source of points.

Su Jingzhe thought that even if Feng Qingya asked for a high price later, he would not bargain.

At this moment, Su Jingzhen still appeared extremely calm.

He didn’t say anything else, and Feng Qingya thought he had an opinion about her, so she didn’t pursue the topic further.

It was a shallow victory.

Feng Qingya’s face still had that natural charm, but she didn’t intentionally try to seduce him anymore.

Her blue storage ring on her hand flashed again, and a delicate box appeared on the table in the private room.

Under the veil of his hat, Su Jingzhen’s expression changed, and he cursed inwardly.

“This is ridiculous! You’ve been carrying it with you all along, and you still had to deceive me into coming up to the second floor.”

However, his gaze immediately fell on the box.

If everything went smoothly, the thing he wanted should be inside.

Feng Qingya didn’t say anything else and opened the box with her jade-like hand.

Inside, there was a long, brick-like object made of unknown material.

It was about the same size as a normal brick, but it had cracks all over its surface, and there seemed to be a layer of incomplete symbols on it.

The surface was also uneven, with some sharp protrusions.

It looked like it could deal significant damage, and Su Jingzhen’s eyes lit up.

If this was indeed a magical artifact, wasn’t it his dream emotional brick?

“Master, take a look at this artifact. Are you satisfied?”

“This is a fragment. We don’t know what its complete form is, so for now just treat it as a brick.”

Feng Qingya continued, “I received it last night, and I intentionally kept it for you.”

Without waiting for a response, Feng Qingya said, “If you feel it’s not bad, you can try using it.”

“I’ll give it a try.”

Su Jingzhen nodded and stood up, directly taking the object in his hand.

It didn’t look big, but it was surprisingly heavy.

With Su Jingzhen’s current Body Cultivation, he could barely hold it, but it wasn’t too light or too heavy.

However, the feeling in his hand was amazing!

The sensation from that night seemed to have returned!
