As Lin Feng settled into the inn, he continued his cultivation journey, making great strides to reach the first level of True Martial and become an Extreme State cultivator. He knew that in order to achieve this goal even faster, he needed the rare herb known as Scarlet Grass to refine the powerful Scarlet Pill.
With his substantial wealth of two million Spirit Stones acquired from looting and selling his Cardinal Pills, Lin Feng decided to seek Li Wei's assistance in finding the elusive herb. He visited her shop, determined to make a compelling request.
However, Lin Feng was not blind to the fact that Li Wei was a master of the seductive arts. As he made his request, he noticed a subtle shift in her demeanor, her eyes taking on a charming glint. He realized that she was using her Charming Kiss technique, attempting to discern his secrets.
Unfazed, Lin Feng played along, pretending to be affected by the technique. He pulled Li Wei into an embrace, seemingly getting closer to fulfilling her seductive desires. However, in reality, the technique had no effect on him, and he kept the true reason to himself—his soul was that of a God Imprint cultivator from his past life.
Li Wei was taken aback by the lack of response from Lin Feng. The Charming Kiss had never failed her before, and this enigmatic disciple had piqued her interest further. Nevertheless, she agreed to help him find the Scarlet Grass, promising to return after seven days with the rare herb.
During those seven days, Lin Feng's cultivation accelerated, drawing upon his True Martial level prowess and his formidable Dragon Breath technique. He felt the power within him surge, knowing that becoming an Extreme State cultivator was now within his reach.
When the agreed-upon time arrived, Li Wei returned, Scarlet Grass in hand. Lin Feng's gratitude was evident, and he thanked her for her assistance without revealing the truth behind his immunity to the Charming Kiss.
As they stood in her shop, a subtle tension lingered in the air. Lin Feng could sense Li Wei's curiosity and intrigue, and he knew that their partnership was built on secrets and mysteries.
