Fantasy: I Can Instantly Comprehend Everything

Her originally angry face with round eyes immediately revealed a sweet smile.

Her slightly childish voice was heartwarming.

Qiao’er greeted, “Brother Zhou Yun!”

The people around them were ready to answer her greeting, but realized that they were not being called. In the end, they resisted the urge to make a sound.

Everyone present wanted to be on the receiving end of her greeting.

Zhou Yun replied, “Yes, why are you here?”

“I’m here to see Brother Zhou Yun. I’m afraid that someone will snatch you away! Many people wanted to be cultivation companions with you before this!” Qiao’er said casually.

Qiao’er’s words made Zhou Yun laugh.

“That was in the past. Look at me now. No one will like me!”

“How could that be!”

When Qiao’er heard Zhou Yun’s dejected response, she frowned and retorted, “Brother Zhou Yun is still so attractive! You’re even better than were back then!”

At this point, Qiao’er’s pretty face immediately blushed.

Everyone present saw Qiao’er’s embarrassment, and countless people glared at Zhou Yun.

All of them gave him dead stares.

It was as if they wanted to take him down with them.

Looking at Qiao’er’s flushed face, the fire of jealousy in their hearts burst forth.

Zhou Yun looked at the bashful Qiao’er and recalled a scene from their past.

He had saved her on his way to Spirit Valley.

At that time, he was about to go to Spirit Valley to find a master.

Coincidentally, both of them encountered two bandits on the road.

He had relied on his strong body to save Qiao’er.

He carried Qiao’er all the way to the valley.

Fortunately, Qiao’er’s talent had caught the eye of an elder of the valley, and they were accepted into the sect.

Qiao’er directly became an inner sect disciple, while Zhou Yun started out as an outer sect disciple.

From then on, whenever Qiao’er could, she would come find him.

Zhou Yun was lost in his thoughts when he suddenly felt his sleeve being tugged at.

He turned around. He saw Qiao’er’s bright eyes smiling excitedly at him. Her eyes were curved like crescent moons and they were twinkling brilliantly.

“Brother Zhou Yun, take this!” Qiao’er said in a low voice as she secretly stuffed a small cloth bag into his sleeve.

Zhou Yun felt as though a cat’s paw was scratching his sleeve.

Her dainty hand caused Zhou Yun’s heart to itch, and he quickly caught her hand.

“There’s no need for that this time!”

Zhou Yun stuffed the item back into her pocket.

Just as Qiao’er was shoving spiritual stones into Zhou Yun’s sleeve, she suddenly felt her small hand being wrapped by his large hand.

Her face immediately turned red.

“Alright,” she said.

Zhou Yun immediately rejected the cultivation resources that Qiao’er had given him. After all, she had helped him out a few times before.

Although her aid was appreciated, he could not rely on her too much.

Furthermore, he knew that Qiao’er had already broken through to the intermediate of foundation establishment stage.

She needed much more resources than he did.

The cultivation resources of the entire sect were decreasing.

Qiao’er probably didn’t have much cultivation resources left.

She might have saved up all of this by herself.

She would probably need more.

He couldn’t continue to be a burden to her.

“Alright then!”

Qiao’er pouted with a sullen face.

She thought to herself, “He must have found someone else, and he doesn’t need my help anymore. He thinks that I am annoying!”

Zhou Yun naturally did not understand her feelings.

If he did, he would probably not know whether to laugh or cry at her antics now.

He merely turned down her offer. He didn’t expect her to overthink this much.

At this moment, Su Wanyi walked over and said, “Zhou Yun, how are you? I’ve always heard Qiao’er mention you. As expected, you look good.”

Su Wanyi waited for the two of them to chat for a while before she walked over and took the initiative to greet Zhou Yun.

“Hello, Senior Sister!” Zhou Yun quickly turned around and greeted Su Wanyi.

The latter had seen Qiao’er’s little antics and shy expression just now.

Anyone with a discerning eye could tell that Qiao’er liked Zhou Yun, to the point that they could no longer be separated.

She came over because she wanted to get to know Zhou Yun and see if he was a suitable partner for Qiao’er.

After all, Qiao’er was like a younger sister to her.

She did not want her sister to be bullied.

Naturally, she wanted to see how Zhou Yun was.

“From the looks of it, are you developing your alchemy skills?”

Su Wanyi took the initiative to mention pill refinement, bringing their conversation back on track.

In fact, she had witnessed the entire process just now. Zhou Yun had no prior knowledge of alchemy, but he wanted to use three sets of herbs to produce three pills.

From her perspective, this was a gamble.

This was because no newbie could refine a pill with zero knowledge on alchemy.

Therefore, she was not very optimistic about Zhou Yun’s chances.

“Yes, I want to learn alchemy,” Zhou Yun answered Su Wanyi’s question with certainty.

Qiao’er said, “Oh, yes, Brother Zhou Yun. We came here because we saw that there were many people here. We didn’t expect to see someone mocking you the moment we arrived!”

“Ignore them!”

Zhou Yun smiled indifferently, not taking it to heart at all.

After Su Wanyi heard his reply, she sank into deep thoughts.

She was not optimistic about Zhou Yun’s chances.

Moreover, Zhou Yun’s reputation preceded him.

Most of the people in the sect knew that he was the outer sect disciple who had been stuck at the first layer of Qi cultivation for a year without making any progress.

As she thought of this, she looked at Qiao’er.

She looked meek as she stood beside Zhou Yun.

She sighed internally as she told herself, “Fine. I am just doing this to help Qiao’er.”

She was extremely fond of Qiao’er.

Helplessly, she took out a basic level alchemy manual from her sleeve and handed it to Zhou Yun.

“Take this book. You can read it when you’re free.”

Zhou Yun took the book in confusion.

He picked it up and saw that the book was called Alchemy Classic Notes.

Zhou Yun was overjoyed. This was precisely what he needed the most now.

She really came through in his hour of need.

“Many thanks, Senior Sister!”

Zhou Yun picked up the manual and was about to open it when a squeal of excitement interrupted him.

He turned his head and saw Qiao’er looking at him in astonishment.

“Qiao’er, what’s wrong?”

Su Wanyi and the others also looked over.

“Brother Zhou Yun, you... You’ve broken through?”

Qiao’er’s words caused everyone, including Su Wanyi, to turn their attention to Zhou Yun.

His entire body was overflowing with spiritual Qi.

He emanated an abundance of spiritual Qi.

This was clearly a state that could only be achieved at the fourth or fifth layer of Qi cultivation!

Only then did everyone notice that Zhou Yun had already advanced to the fifth layer of Qi cultivation.

Everyone present was shocked.

Didn’t the rumor claim that Zhou Yun was stuck at the first layer of Qi cultivation for a long time and couldn’t break through?

What was going on?

Everyone stared at him in disbelief.
