Chapter 189: 144. Remotely controlling another person’s Qi-Blood_2
Shen Qinghan nodded vigorously.
In front of Yuan Dongzhi, nodding had almost become her signature move.
“By the way, Master, when I saw you walking on the waves to come to the research base during the college entrance examination, it was so breathtaking. If I want to walk on the waves like that, how long will I at least have to practice?”
Shen Qinghan asked longingly.
Yuan Dongzhi laughed and said, “I was nearly forty-five when I managed to walk on the waves like I did that day. For you, I think you can do it before you turn thirty, I have great faith in you.”
Before thirty?
Hearing what Yuan Dongzhi said, Shen Qinghan felt a little overwhelmed.
It was the first time in her life someone had such high hopes for her, giving her a very peculiar feeling.
Seeing her so pleasantly surprised, Yuan Dongzhi couldn’t help but smile, finding her little disciple inexplicably adorable.
Unlike the eldest disciple from Origin Land, who was always expressionless, taciturn, not rejoicing in material gains, nor wallowing in one’s own sorrows, like a block of emotionless ice.
Thinking thus, Yuan Dongzhi said to Shen Qinghan, “Qinghan, at the end of the term, I will inject you with other Exotic Beast Genes to further research your Gene Slavery ability.”
“Okay, I understand, Master.”
“It’s getting late, if there’s nothing else, you should head back and rest early.”
“Okay, goodbye, Master.”
After finishing, Shen Qinghan quickly left the office.
She missed Lin Zichen and wanted to go back and take a bath with him in the bathroom, enjoying their private world.
…
Zhongyuan Building No. 8, Dorm Room 603.
On the balcony.
Lin Zichen was sitting cross-legged on a yoga mat, sweating profusely as he refined his muscles for the second time.
After some time, he slowly opened his clear eyes, let out a deep breath, and a relieved smile spread across his face.
The second Tempering Flesh was a success!
Next up, time for the second Bone Tempering!
With the boost from the Revitalization Pill, let’s set a small goal, aim to complete it within two months!
Speaking of which, I still haven’t tried out the mental refinement method I learned from Han Han last night.
Now that I’m free, might as well give it a go…
With that thought, Lin Zichen closed his eyes and, following the technique Shen Qinghan taught him the night before, calmed his breathing and emptied his mind as he meditated.
About half an hour later.
A prompt slowly appeared in the void.
[Spiritual Power +1]
That’s it?
Lin Zichen felt a bit disappointed; half an hour of meditation only increased his spiritual power by 1 point, not even as much as solving a few math problems would have.
This so-called mental refinement method wasn’t suited for a cheater like him.
“Creak—”
A door opening sound came from the living room.
It was Shen Qinghan returning.
She quickly changed into a pair of pink slippers meant for indoor wear, then briskly walked towards the balcony.
Before long, she stopped in front of Lin Zichen and said with a sweet smile, “Xiao Chen, I have some good news for you.”
“What good news?”
Lin Zichen looked up at her and asked.
With her hands behind her back, Shen Qinghan smiled mysteriously and said, “I won’t tell you just yet. After you finish refining, let’s take a bath together and then I’ll tell you.”
“Then let’s go take a bath now.”
Lin Zichen stood up, picked up Shen Qinghan in his arms, not even bothering to clean up the yoga mat, and headed straight for the bathroom.
He didn’t like his curiosity being piqued; he wanted to know the good news right now.
…
In the bathroom.
The two of them took over ten minutes to finish bathing, sitting face to face in the large tub, comfortably enjoying the warm water.
After soaking for a while, Lin Zichen couldn’t wait to ask Shen Qinghan, “Now that we’re already soaking, what’s the good news?”
“The good news is…” Shen Qinghan started to speak then paused teasingly for a bit before continuing with a smile, “I can control water now!”
Lin Zichen raised an eyebrow, finding this a bit surprising; he hadn’t expected Shen Qinghan to learn water control so quickly.
Seems like little Miss Dirty was quite talented in playing with water.
She couldn’t be seen as just an ordinary person.
Thinking this, he said to Shen Qinghan, “Show me.”
“Then keep your eyes peeled because this will definitely dazzle you.”
After saying this, Shen Qinghan began to demonstrate her water control ability, levitating a part of the water from the tub in the air in front of Lin Zichen.
Then, using her weak spiritual power, she morphed the water into various shapes.
There were cubes, rectangular prisms, spheres, cones, and more.
Next, she even formed a basketball with clear stripes and a granular surface.
“How impressive is your sister Qinghan?”
With the water basketball slowly rotating in the air, Shen Qinghan bragged a little with a triumphant smile.
Watching this scene unfold before his very eyes, Lin Zichen was truly amazed and said in disbelief, “To control it so smoothly right after learning, your talent is so incredible it’s almost exaggerated.”
“And there’s more impressive stuff to come.”
“Please, begin your performance.”
“I’m about to start my performance, don’t blink.”
“Okay. I’ve got my eyes wide open.”
As Lin Zichen tried his best to widen his eyes, the water basketball floating in front of him suddenly morphed into a thin stream, cleverly splashing onto his face like a squirt of urine.
“Haha, you fell for it.”
The sound of Shen Qinghan’s mischievous laughter came from ahead, “Xiao Chen, you look just like those clueless dads in comedy videos who get peed on by their babies, completely bewildered, haha.”
Lin Zichen wiped the water off his face and said with resignation, “Shen Wuhang, you’re getting sillier.”
