Holding a child-bearing system, seducing all the handsome male cultivators in the wilderness

Li Wanji knew very well that if she wanted to conquer someone like Jiuluo Nanxing, she must not act too hastily, otherwise it would only backfire.

After a long while, Jiuluo Nanxing suddenly spoke: "You don't look like someone from Wanhua Valley."

His voice was as cold as the friction of ice, but it carried a unique charm.

Li Wanji's heart was moved, but she remained calm on her face: "Young Valley Master has a keen eye. I am indeed not from Wanhua Valley, but from Qiwu Country in the north of the South Sea Continent."

As she spoke, she briefly recounted her background, including her identity, strength, and purpose of coming to the Valley of Thousand Flowers.

She did not hide her purpose, because with Jiuluo Nanxing's strength, even if she concealed something, it would be meaningless.

It is better to be honest with each other, at least giving each other a chance to understand each other.

Jiuluo Nanxing listened to her story without revealing any emotion in his eyes, making it impossible to guess what he was thinking.

However, this was also within Li Wanji's expectations. People like him probably had no interest in listening to a stranger telling his own story, let alone at such a delicate moment.

As expected, Jiuluo Nanxing did not respond. Instead, he turned to look at the lakeside cottage and said, "You said you are Elder Baili's guest. For her sake, I will not embarrass you. You can go now."

Li Wanji curled her lips and smiled: "Young Valley Master, I just watched you perform the flower refining technique. It is beautiful, but it seems to lack some soul. The flower refining technique is not only about refining flowers, but also about refining the heart. Without flowers in your heart, how can you refine a truly perfect flower?"

She knew that if she wanted to win over someone like Jiuluo Nanxing, simple flattery and kindness would be useless. Only by causing resonance in his heart would she have a greater chance of getting close to him.

The Flower Goddess Festival is the biggest event in the Valley of Flowers. This young man was refining flowers late at night, so he must have high expectations for the Flower Goddess Festival. What she said hit the nail on the head.

And her coming here at the right time may be a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

Jiuluo Nanxing glanced sideways, her peach blossom eyes rippled a little, but her tone remained cold: "You do have some knowledge, tell me about it?"

Li Wanji took a deep breath and said slowly: "The flower is not a flower, the fog is not a fog. It comes at midnight and leaves at dawn. It comes like a spring dream and leaves like a morning cloud that cannot be found."

Jiuluo Nanxing frowned slightly, as if thinking about something.

Li Wanji was secretly happy, knowing that her words had caught his attention.

She struck while the iron was hot: "Young Valley Master, flowers bloom and fade, all of which are predetermined. But human hearts are fickle and hard to predict. Everything in the world has a spirit, and so do flowers."

"The spirit of flowers lies in their splendor and beauty when they bloom, and even more in their calmness and ease when they wither. If you can achieve this state of mind, your flower-making skills will naturally reach a higher level."

Although her words were a little vague, Jiuluo Nanxing was smart enough to understand the meaning.

He looked up at the bright moon hanging high in the sky, with a complex emotion flashing in his eyes.

After a while, he whispered, "Go."

Although he did not directly answer Li Wanji's question, it was a great improvement compared to his previous indifference.

Li Wanji felt relieved, knowing that her words had played a certain role, but she still did not dare to take it lightly.

She knew that the more she talked to people like Jiuluo Nanxing about profound principles, the more interested they would be.

So she continued, "Young Valley Master, in fact, the art of refining flowers is not just a simple technique, but also a state of mind. Only when you have flowers in your heart can you refine the mystery of flowers. Otherwise, no matter how profound the technique is, it is just an empty appearance without substance."

Jiuluo Nanxing paused and looked back at Li Wanji: "Are you teaching me how to make flowers?"

There was a hint of doubt in his words, as if he felt that Li Wanji was not qualified enough.

Li Wanji shook her head without hesitation: "No, I am comprehending the spirit of flowers."

Jiuluo Nanxing was silent for a moment, then suddenly said, "Come with me."

Having said that, he turned and walked towards the cottage in the center of the lake.

Li Wanji was stunned. She didn't expect Jiu Luo Nanxing to suddenly invite her to go with them, but she quickly came to her senses and followed quickly.

It was already late at night, and there were no lights on in the lakeside cottage. Only the moonlight shone through the window lattices, casting mottled shadows.

There was a faint fragrance in the air, which seemed to be the scent of flowers, but also seemed to be some other smell, making it difficult to distinguish.

Jiuluo Nanxing moved forward in the darkness, his movements light and graceful, as if he had merged into one with the darkness.

Li Wanji followed closely behind, trying not to make any noise so as not to disturb this rare tranquility.

After passing a screen, we came to a spacious room. In the room was a stone table with a candle on it, emitting a faint light.

Jiuluo Nanxing found a cushion in the small building and sat down cross-legged. Then he looked at Li Wanji and said, "You sit down too."

Li Wanji sat down opposite him as he said, feeling a little nervous.

Although this young man was not very old, he had a strong aura and was intimidating without even getting angry. When she was with him, it seemed as if there was an invisible pressure that made her feel a little breathless.

Jiuluo Nanxing closed his eyes and concentrated, as if he was adjusting his breath. After a while, he slowly spoke: "You just said that only when there is a flower in your heart can you refine the mystery of the flower. So, do you know what the heart is?"

Li Wanji was stunned. She didn't expect him to ask such a profound question. But she quickly reacted and said in a deep voice: "The heart is the source of the spirit and the master of the soul. It is the root of the body and the destination of all things."

Jiuluo Nanxing raised his eyebrows slightly: "The heart is like a mirror, reflecting everything. Only when the heart is free of dust can it be clear and bright."

He opened his eyes and looked at Li Wanji: "Do you understand?"

Li Wanji nodded without hesitation: "Young Master is right. If the mind is clear, one can see through all the falsehoods in the world and comprehend the true meaning of all things."

Jiuluo Nanxing's eyes flashed with admiration: "You are quite intelligent."

He paused, then continued, "Then do you know that the highest level of flower refining is to have your heart blossom with joy?"

Li Wanji's heart moved, and she vaguely felt that Jiuluo Nanxing seemed to want to share some extremely profound secret techniques with her.

She didn't dare to be careless and listened attentively.

Jiuluo Nanxing said slowly: "The heart flower is invisible and formless, but it can give birth to all things. Only when the heart flower blooms can you truly comprehend the highest realm of flower refining."

The more Li Wanji listened, the more frightened she became. Although she had some knowledge of flower refining, she only knew the basics, which was far from what Jiuluo Nanxing said.

She forced herself to remain calm and said, "Young Valley Master is absolutely right. When the flower of the heart blooms, all things return to their true nature."

A hint of surprise flashed in Jiuluo Nanxing's eyes: "You are quite interesting. Let me ask you, are you willing to help my heart blossom?"

After hearing this, Li Wanji suddenly became a little distracted.

The two of them were just discussing seriously, but when these words came out of his mouth, it sounded like he was inviting her to go to Wushan Mountain and make love with him.

Although this was her original intention to capture Jiuluo Nanxing, she was somewhat caught off guard when she was suddenly invited by the real owner.

Li Wanji secretly laughed at her own wild imagination, but quickly came to her senses. She knew that this might be the best chance to get close to Jiuluo Nanxing.

She calmed herself down and said softly, "Since Young Valley Master has this wish, Wan Ji will do her best to help."

Jiuluo Nanxing looked at Li Wanji, his peach blossom eyes slightly narrowed, as if he was examining how sincere her words were.

"Now that you have agreed, you cannot go back on your word."

As he spoke, he opened his palm and a half-opened flower appeared in his hand. The flower was light blue and exuded a faint fragrance.
