Chapter 189
Seeing Ji Menglan massaging Jiang Che’s shoulders, Lin Xiyan was momentarily stunned, her expression somewhat bewildered.
Damn, did she see it wrong?
The always extremely proud Ji Menglan, who never paid any attention to any man, was actually massaging Jiang Che’s shoulders?
“Senior Sister, you are here…” Noticing Lin Xiyan’s strange gaze, Ji Menglan’s face turned slightly red, feeling a bit embarrassed.
Last time, Jiang Yun’er looked at her with the same gaze, it was really embarrassing!
“Why are you here?” Lin Xiyan looked at Jiang Che, then at Ji Menglan, and asked with a strange look in her eyes.
If she remembered correctly, her junior sister should be on a mission, right? How did she end up here with Jiang Che?
“I… I am here to work for Jiang Che.” Ji Menglan hesitated for a moment and said. She couldn’t possibly say that she was forcibly brought here by that old bastard Jiang Che, right? What about her face!
“Work? Are you short of money?” Hearing Ji Menglan’s words, Lin Xiyan frowned even deeper, her gaze shifting between Jiang Che and Ji Menglan. Her intuition told her that it wasn’t that simple.
“Ahem… She is indeed here to work for me.” Jiang Che coughed twice and said, not delving too much into the matter with Lin Xiyan.
He handed over the Star Devourer Technique to her and continued.
“This is the Star Devourer Technique. Once you learn it, come to the basement and find me, there will be a surprise!”
“You just need to learn the most basic internal energy cultivation method for now, and the more profound techniques can be learned slowly later.”
After saying that, Jiang Che walked directly towards the basement, planning to help Chen Feng recover his internal energy first, to make it easier for Lin Xiyan to absorb.
After Jiang Che left, Lin Xiyan looked at the technique in her hand, curiously flipping through it. Before she came, Jiang Che had already told her briefly that he wanted to help her improve her internal energy by absorbing others’ internal energy.
Her eyes scanned back and forth on the rare copy of the Star Devourer Technique, marveling at it. She didn’t expect that such a technique that could cultivate by absorbing others’ internal energy actually existed in this world.
Quickly memorizing the key points of the technique, Lin Xiyan’s expression became extremely serious. After leaving the mountain, she hardly had any time to cultivate. Now that she finally had a way to improve her cultivation, she didn’t want to give it up.
“Senior Sister, can I have a look at this technique?” After Jiang Che left, Ji Menglan looked at Lin Xiyan with anticipation and asked.
“No…” Lin Xiyan shook her head and directly refused her request. Before leaving, Jiang Che didn’t say that Ji Menglan could also learn this technique.
If she taught it to Ji Menglan without permission and made Jiang Che angry, it wouldn’t be worth it.
“Senior Sister, you are such a bad woman!” Ji Menglan looked at Lin Xiyan resentfully. She really didn’t expect her to refuse so bluntly and decisively!
You don’t care about our friendship, do you? You don’t care about the deep sisterhood we have had for years in the sect, do you?
“Senior Sister, I really want to learn this technique, just let me have a look. If you don’t tell, and I don’t tell, Jiang Che won’t know!” Ji Menglan walked to Lin Xiyan’s side, shaking her arm continuously and said coquettishly, knowing that Lin Xiyan was most susceptible to this kind of persuasion.
“No, if you want to learn, go and ask Jiang Che yourself. If he agrees, I will let you learn.” Lin Xiyan shook her head, saying seriously and refusing Ji Menglan without hesitation.
This made Ji Menglan very annoyed. She snorted a few times and sat on the sofa nearby, looking like a bullied little wife.
…
After Jiang Che arrived at the basement, he saw Chen Feng tied to a chair, sleeping soundly, feeling somewhat speechless.
Damn, this guy’s heart is really big, even in his place he can still sleep?
“Go get a basin of cold water.” Jiang Che instructed the bodyguard beside him and sat down on a chair.
“Pour it on him!”
After the bodyguard brought back a basin of cold water, Jiang Che instructed. Without any hesitation, the bodyguard poured the whole basin of cold water on Chen Feng.
“Cough, cough…” The cold water soaked Chen Feng’s clothes, making him shiver and cough, and he slowly opened his eyes.
At first, he was still a bit confused, but when he saw Jiang Che sitting opposite him with a playful look on his face, he remembered what happened last night.
After fighting with Zhao Wuji, he was knocked out by Jiang Che who appeared halfway through. What happened after that, he had no idea.
Observing his surroundings, Chen Feng found himself in a place that looked like a basement. He looked at Jiang Che with wary eyes.
“What exactly do you want?” He didn’t think that this guy brought him here for anything good.
“Nothing much, just helping you recover your internal energy.” Jiang Che said with a gentle smile, standing up and walking to Chen Feng’s side, forcibly prying open his mouth and feeding him a Vitality Pill.
“What did you feed me!” Chen Feng looked at Jiang Che with anger, thinking that he had been poisoned, but soon he was confused.
Because he felt his dissipated internal energy was gradually recovering. Could it be that this guy was really helping him? But why would Jiang Che do this? He had no relationship with him, they even had enmity.
Could it be that Jiang Che felt guilty for taking his fiancée and wanted to help him recover his internal energy? But if that was the case, why did he knock him out last night?
Chen Feng’s mind was in chaos, unable to understand why Jiang Che was doing this.
“Has your internal energy recovered?” Seeing Chen Feng’s bewildered look, Jiang Che asked with a smile.
“Recovered, thank you…” Chen Feng nodded, standing up from the chair, shaking off the cold water on his body, and thanked Jiang Che with a complex look in his eyes.
After recovering his internal energy, it was easy for him to break free from the ropes.
“No need to thank me, it’s what I should do…” Jiang Che shook his head, looking at Chen Feng with a strange expression.
Does this guy really think I am helping him?
“If there’s nothing else, I’ll leave now.” Chen Feng looked at Jiang Che for a long time before speaking, still bewildered by today’s events.
But it was clear that he couldn’t make a move against Jiang Che now. After all, the other party had saved his life. As for Xiao Qingge, he would have to deal with that later.
At this moment, Lin Xiyan walked in from outside and stood beside Jiang Che, looking at Chen Feng with a frown.
“Is this the surprise you mentioned?” She still had some impression of Chen Feng. They had met once at the Lin family house.
“You are Elder Lin’s granddaughter, why are you here?” Seeing Lin Xiyan’s arrival, Chen Feng was dumbfounded, a bad premonition rising in his heart.
It seemed that Jiang Che and Lin Xiyan knew each other, and their relationship was not simple. Damn it, Jiang Che had such a woman and still went after his fiancée!
“Yes, he is the surprise I mentioned. He has the cultivation of the late stage of Transformation. If you absorb all his internal energy, it’s not impossible for you to break through to Transformation.” Jiang Che nodded, speaking frankly.
“You…” Hearing Jiang Che’s words, Chen Feng’s face turned pale, finally understanding what Jiang Che wanted to do.
This bastard wanted to recover his internal energy so that this woman could absorb it! He had heard of such evil techniques that could absorb others’ internal energy. He didn’t expect Jiang Che to have such a technique.
“Really noisy!” Jiang Che frowned and slapped Chen Feng unconscious from a distance.
Although Chen Feng’s strength had recovered, he couldn’t withstand Jiang Che’s strike.
“Here, put your hand on his crown and follow the technique to absorb his internal energy.” Jiang Che took out a pair of white gloves from the system space and handed them to Lin Xiyan.
Lin Xiyan rolled her eyes at Jiang Che, thinking he was really petty. But she didn’t say much. After putting on the gloves, she walked to Chen Feng and began to absorb his internal energy.
