Chapter 336: Sun Technique
Lin Feng walked straight into Meng Qing's room, very casually, as if entering his own room.
If he went to knock and ask for Meng Qing's opinion, she might say she was already asleep. Lin Feng had learned his lesson by now and couldn't be bothered to knock anymore.
Meng Qing sat there, watching Lin Feng enter. A flicker of brilliance passed through her breathtakingly beautiful eyes as she said to Lin Feng, "You've advanced?"
"Mm." Lin Feng smiled and nodded. "I've reached the Mysterious Martial Realm. It won't be long before I no longer need you to keep guarding me."
Hearing Lin Feng's words, Meng Qing was momentarily stunned. A trace of disappointment actually flickered in her eyes as she looked at Lin Feng and said, "Then... you don't need me by your side anymore?"
"How could that be!" Lin Feng saw the disappointment in Meng Qing's eyes, and instead, a hint of joy appeared on his face. This woman was finally becoming less able to hide her feelings.
Walking over to Meng Qing, Lin Feng sat down. His arm went around behind Meng Qing's back, wrapping around her slender waist. Meng Qing's body trembled slightly, and she wanted to dodge away, but Lin Feng wasn't being polite with her anymore. He applied a little force, pulling Meng Qing into his embrace.
Lin Feng had come to understand by now that hoping for Meng Qing to take the initiative was impossible. He had to be forceful. After all, no matter what he did, Meng Qing wouldn't do anything to him.
Besides, perhaps before long, his cultivation would surpass Meng Qing's. Then, even if Meng Qing wanted to do something to him, she wouldn't be able to. She would be at his mercy... Thinking this, Lin Feng felt a hint of smugness.
"Meng Qing, I no longer need you to protect me, but I will always protect you."
Hearing Lin Feng's gentle words, Meng Qing's heart trembled. A sweet smile actually appeared in her eyes, though it vanished in an instant.
They embraced in silence, everything left unsaid.
After a long while, Meng Qing spoke again, "Lin Feng, your physique seems to have changed. Are you cultivating a fire-attribute technique?"
"More or less. The technique I cultivate is the Great Sun Incinerating Heaven Scripture, a supreme yang technique. It cultivates yang fire true essence, so naturally, my physique leans toward fire." Lin Feng didn't hide anything from Meng Qing.
"Great Sun Incinerating Heaven Scripture!" Meng Qing's gaze sharpened. "Lin Feng, the Great Sun Incinerating Heaven Scripture starts as a low-grade earth-level technique. As your yang fire true essence grows stronger, the technique's grade will also increase. It is said to be a true sun technique with boundless power. How did you obtain it?"
Lin Feng's eyes narrowed as he looked at Meng Qing in surprise. "Meng Qing, how do you know that?"
"Because what I cultivate is a lesser yin technique," Meng Qing said. "Right now, your Great Sun Incinerating Heaven Scripture is only low-grade earth-level, which also counts as a lesser yang technique. But as it advances, it will become a true sun technique, the counterpart to the greater yin technique. It is a powerful technique truly capable of incinerating the heavens and boiling the seas."
"Sun and greater yin, as well as lesser yang and lesser yin." Lin Feng's eyes flickered. The "sun" here didn't refer to the sun in the sky but rather an extreme form of yang.
Meng Qing only cultivated a lesser yin technique, yet her cold aura was already so strong. The Great Sun Incinerating Heaven Scripture, being a sun technique, was naturally so scorching that even bathing could boil and evaporate the water in the pool.
"Meng Qing, right now the Great Sun Incinerating Heaven Scripture is a lesser yang technique, and what you cultivate is a lesser yin technique. So then..." Lin Feng's eyes flickered. He rubbed his head and chuckled awkwardly, "Meng Qing, how about we dual cultivate?"
A hint of shyness appeared in Lin Feng's eyes, like a big boy. Now that his strength had reached the Mysterious Martial Realm, he was decisive in killing, but when he mentioned the words "dual cultivate," his heart still pounded. Especially since he was proposing it to his goddess, Meng Qing. Lin Feng had mustered up his courage.
Hearing the words "dual cultivate," Meng Qing's expression stiffened. Her heart also pounded, feeling very nervous.
"Meng Qing, don't misunderstand. I just want to expel that cold aura from your body. My sun technique should be able to suppress your lesser yin technique, right?" Lin Feng felt a bit uncomfortable under Meng Qing's unwavering gaze and gave an awkward smile.
Seeing Lin Feng like this, the frost on Meng Qing's face finally melted. She actually let out a light laugh, like a blooming ice lotus, so beautiful that Lin Feng was dazzled.
A smile that could topple a city—that phrase was probably tailor-made for Meng Qing. When the coldness on the ice goddess's face melted, revealing that radiant, perfect smile, it was enough to melt all the snow and ice in the sky, letting sunlight seep into people's hearts.
Lin Feng also smiled, a natural smile. Seeing Meng Qing's city-toppling smile, his smile came from the depths of his heart.
"Lin Feng, can you give me some more time?" Meng Qing said softly, causing Lin Feng's smile to freeze on his face. His heart pounded. "Meng Qing... you... agreed?"
Meng Qing saying to give her some more time was undoubtedly a form of tacit agreement.
Looking at Lin Feng's burning gaze, a blush crept across Meng Qing's face. Her eyes flickered, and she actually dared not meet Lin Feng's gaze.
But Meng Qing still nodded slightly. She agreed. If she loved him, what couldn't she give him? It was just... she was a little afraid...
Watching Meng Qing shyly nod, Lin Feng felt like his heart was about to leap out of his chest. Dual cultivation—he had never dared to think about it before, never dared to defile this ice goddess.
In the past, when Meng Qing had displayed her Mysterious Martial Realm strength along with her perfect appearance, Lin Feng had only admired her. Even if an occasional thought crossed his mind, he kept it buried deep inside. But as their feelings deepened and his cultivation grew stronger, Lin Feng's thoughts had changed. He wanted to possess Meng Qing, completely and utterly.
So what if she was an ice goddess? He would melt her with his heart and vow to protect her forever.
Meng Qing was destined to be his woman.
Especially after breaking through to the Mysterious Martial Realm, Lin Feng might not even realize it himself, but this awareness deep in his heart grew stronger and stronger. That was why he dared to say the words "dual cultivate" to Meng Qing.
And Meng Qing had given him such a huge surprise by not refusing. Although Lin Feng knew Meng Qing liked him, this ice beauty had never been able to open her heart. Lin Feng felt there was always a barrier between them, an invisible distance. But now, that barrier was finally gone. Meng Qing no longer hid her feelings, completely letting go, and even nodded in agreement to dual cultivate with him.
That simple nod was undoubtedly a declaration of love.
Lin Feng smiled, a radiant smile, and hugged Meng Qing tightly. Looking at the city-toppling face so close, Lin Feng said softly, "Of course, but first, let me have a kiss..."
As he spoke, Lin Feng very domineeringly lowered his head, pressing his lips against hers, which carried a hint of coolness, gradually warming and melting them.
Meng Qing was Lin Feng's woman.
Meng Qing no longer hid her inner feelings. She wrapped her arms tightly around Lin Feng, letting him invade her not-so-gently.
...
"Young Master!"
At that moment, a voice interrupted the passion between Lin Feng and Meng Qing. Their lips parted, and Meng Qing's perfect, beautiful face was flushed red, making her even more captivating.
Lin Feng smiled at Meng Qing, gently stroking her cheek, though he felt a bit annoyed in his heart.
This Yi Xue really had terrible timing.
"I'll go check." Lin Feng said softly.
"Mm." Meng Qing nodded obediently, like a well-behaved girl.
Lin Feng walked out of the room and saw Yi Xue standing there. She said to Lin Feng, "Young Master, someone named Nan Shan is looking for you."
"Nan Shan." Lin Feng frowned slightly. What did he want?
Nan Shan was Second Prince Duan Wuya's man. His arrival meant that Second Prince Duan Wuya wanted to see Lin Feng.
