Chapter 479 Wang Jian Flirts With Lin Xingya In Front of Lin Fei
\'Interesting. Looks like he\'s decided to play it cool this time,\' Wang Jian observed, a hint of amusement in his eyes.
Lin Fei, however, had his own agenda. His thoughts revolved around the two herbs—Luminara Blossom and the Ephemeral Moon Orchid. Confident in his ability to locate them using his improved Divine Sense that he had trained by utilizing the \'Celestial Mind Scripture\', Lin Fei envisioned presenting these herbs to Lin Xingya, solidifying his favor.
\'Once I find those herbs, Lin Xingya will surely see my capabilities and devotion. Maybe then she\'ll realize I\'m the one meant for her,\' Lin Fei schemed internally, his determination evident.
Unbeknownst to Lin Fei, Wang Jian was a step ahead, having already sensed the locations of these herbs during his previous encounter with the demon base arrays.
Meanwhile, the vast demon territory spread before the cultivators, an abundance of herbs waiting to be discovered. The cultivators dispersed, each group embarking on their individual herb-hunting quests.
Lin Fei, relying on the Celestial Mind Manuscript, extended his Divine Sense, scanning the surroundings for the sought-after Luminara Blossom and Ephemeral Moon Orchid.
On the other hand, Wang Jian, Lin Xingya, and her three maids found themselves standing together, deliberating on their strategy.
Wang Jian broke the silence, his tone holding an air of excitement. "Lin Xingya, I sensed an auspicious aura from this particular location when I controlled the demon base arrays. Would you care to accompany me? There might be something extraordinary waiting for us there."
Lin Xingya\'s curiosity piqued, and she exchanged glances with her maids. Without hesitation, they followed Wang Jian, soaring through the demon territory towards the specified location.
Arriving at the spot, they found a serene and captivating scene. Luminara Blossoms, radiant and ethereal, bathed in a gentle glow, illuminated the surroundings.
Lin Xingya gasped in awe, her eyes reflecting the beauty of the blossoms. "This is incredible! The Luminara Blossoms are indeed rare and precious. Wang Jian, how did you know about this place?"
Wang Jian chuckled, a playful gleam in his eyes. "Let\'s just say I have a knack for finding hidden treasures. Now, let\'s gather the Luminara Blossoms and then move on to find the Ephemeral Moon Orchid. Our mission is off to a fantastic start."
Lin Xingya nodded, appreciating the unexpected discovery. The team, fueled by the excitement of their successful find, gathered the Luminara Blossoms, filling their storage rings with the precious herbs.
\'One down, one to go,\' Wang Jian thought, leading Lin Xingya and her trio of maids to the next location where the elusive Ephemeral Moon Orchid awaited discovery.
As they journeyed deeper into the demon territory, Lin Xingya couldn\'t help but marvel at the efficiency displayed by Wang Jian.
\'Wang Jian is proving to be more valuable than I initially thought,\' Lin Xingya mused, silently grateful for his contributions.
n the heart of the demon base, amidst the lush vegetation, Wang Jian\'s keen eyes caught sight of the elusive Ephemeral Moon Orchids, their ethereal glow casting a mesmerizing aura.
"Look, over there!" Wang Jian exclaimed, pointing to the radiant blooms.
Lin Xingya\'s maids, skilled in herbology, swiftly moved to gather the delicate flowers, handling them with utmost care to preserve their potency.
With each orchid delicately stored away, Lin Xingya\'s heart swelled with joy. Finally, she had secured both the Luminara Blossom and the Ephemeral Moon Orchid.
Turning to Wang Jian, curiosity bubbled within her. "You must be wondering why I\'m so eager to obtain these herbs," she said, her eyes alight with intrigue.
Wang Jian, wearing a knowing smirk, responded with a hint of mischief. "I didn\'t need to ask. I already have a pretty good idea."
Lin Xingya and her maids exchanged puzzled glances, taken aback by Wang Jian\'s confidence. "What do you mean?" Lin Xingya inquired, her curiosity piqued.
Leaning in with a sly grin, Wang Jian divulged his deductions. "It\'s simple. Given the unique properties of these herbs, there are only a few logical conclusions one could draw."
Lin Xingya leaned in, hanging onto his every word, eager to unravel the mystery. "And what are these scenarios?" she pressed, her curiosity reaching its peak.
Wang Jian paused for dramatic effect before continuing, his expression thoughtful yet mischievous. "One possibility is that you require each herb for distinct purposes," he explained, his tone contemplative. "But I find that unlikely."
Lin Xingya nodded, acknowledging his deduction. "And the other possibility?" she prompted, her curiosity intensifying.
Wang Jian\'s eyes sparkled with amusement as he divulged his theory. "I believe you intend to combine these herbs to create a potent pellet," he revealed, his voice tinged with excitement.
"As for the pellet, it could serve various purposes, from enhancing your cultivation base to bolstering your elemental affinity," Wang Jian continued, his words resonating with insight. "But I believe you\'re aiming for something more profound—a pellet that will not only elevate your cultivation talent but also augment your elemental mastery to unparalleled heights."
Lin Xingya stood in awe of Wang Jian\'s perceptiveness. His astute analysis had revealed her true intentions, leaving her both impressed and slightly unnerved.
\'How does he know so much? His intellect is truly remarkable,\' Lin Xingya thought, her admiration for Wang Jian growing with each passing moment. She found herself drawn to his sharp wit and depth of knowledge.
Unbeknownst to her, Wang Jian\'s perceptive nature and astute deductions had earned him a newfound respect in Lin Xingya\'s eyes, sparking an unexpected bond between them amidst the quest for rare herbs in the heart of the demon base.
In the dimly lit cavern, amidst the glow of rare herbs and the scent of potent medicinal plants, Wang Jian stood beside Lin Xingya, his expression calm yet alert. He could sense the surge of providence coursing through him, a sensation both exhilarating and profound.
\'What a remarkable feeling,\' Wang Jian mused inwardly, savoring the moment. \'But I must remain focused.\'
Before he could dwell further on the surge of energy, the tranquility of the cave was shattered by the sudden arrival of Lin Fei. The air crackled with tension as Lin Fei\'s presence loomed large in the confined space.
Startled by the interruption, Lin Xingya turned to face her adopted brother, a smile fading from her lips as she registered his stormy expression. Beside her, the three maids paused in their task, exchanging uneasy glances.
Lin Fei\'s voice echoed through the cavern, sharp and accusatory, as he confronted Wang Jian. "What are you doing here with my sister? And why is she standing so close to you?"
Wang Jian, ever the composed figure, met Lin Fei\'s fiery gaze with a calm demeanor, a hint of amusement dancing in his eyes. "Ah, Lin Fei, what a surprise to see you here," he remarked casually, his tone laced with subtle mischief.
Lin Fei\'s brows furrowed deeply, his frustration bubbling to the surface. "Cut the act, Wang Jian! I demand to know what\'s going on between you and my sister!"
Meanwhile, Lin Xingya stood between the two men, her expression caught in a whirlwind of emotions—surprise, embarrassment, and a hint of something else she couldn\'t quite place.
Before she could interject, Wang Jian took a bold step forward, seizing her hand in a move that caught her off guard. His touch sent a jolt of electricity through her veins, leaving her momentarily speechless.
\'What is he doing?\' Lin Xingya\'s mind raced with questions, her cheeks flushing crimson in response to Wang Jian\'s unexpected gesture.
Wang Jian, however, remained unfazed by the tension crackling in the air. With a mischievous glint in his eyes, he turned to Lin Fei, his voice dripping with playful sarcasm. "Oh, Lin Xingya and I were just discussing how she plans to thank me for helping her find these rare herbs."
Lin Fei\'s eyes widened in disbelief as he watched the intimate exchange between Wang Jian and Lin Xingya. His fists clenched at his sides, a tumultuous storm of jealousy and anger raging within him.
"Is that so?" Lin Fei\'s voice was laced with skepticism as he shot a piercing glare at Wang Jian. "Is he saying the truth, sister??"
Lin Xingya\'s cheeks flushed crimson at Wang Jian\'s audacity, her heart fluttering in her chest at the unexpected closeness between them.
However, despite her initial surprise, she found herself strangely drawn to Wang Jian\'s confident demeanor, her usual composure faltering in his presence.
She cast a hesitant glance at Wang Jian.
\'Why did he grab my hand like that? And why am I feeling so flustered?\' Lin Xingya\'s thoughts raced as she grappled with the sudden intensity of the situation.
With tensions escalating by the second, the cavern seemed to shrink in size, the air thick with unspoken words and unresolved tensions.
As Lin Fei and Wang Jian stood locked in a silent battle of wills, Lin Xingya found herself caught in the crossfire between her brother\'s piercing gaze and Wang Jian\'s unwavering presence.
With each passing moment, the intricate dance of emotions threatened to unravel the fragile balance between them.
"S-Sorry, Lin Fei," she stammered, her words faltering. "I-I really was just...thanking Wang Jian for helping me find the herbs we needed."
Lin Fei\'s jaw clenched as he struggled to contain his rising fury. The sight of Wang Jian\'s audacity, coupled with Lin Xingya\'s apparent compliance, ignited a blazing inferno of resentment within him.
\'How dare he touch her like that?\' Lin Fei seethed inwardly, his chest constricting with an overwhelming sense of possessiveness. \'Lin Xingya is mine, and no one else\'s.\'
