This time seeing everyone dying so closely affected Lian Zhi much more than she had thought it would, she felt a lingering fear from the mere sight of this masked cultivator.
The fear was rooted deep into her soul, even knowing that she was in a safe zone and this cultivator wouldn't be able to attack her now even if he wanted, not to mention sister Lingxi had assured her that he wouldn't even attack them even if they weren't in a safe zone, it didn't help her.
The moment she laid her eyes on him her breathing became erratic, she totally lost control of her calm state. She understood that this fear wouldn't go away easily.
Fearing something isn't a problem, everyone has something that they fear but having trauma alongside is detrimental to her mental state and this can cause unwanted problems while cultivating.
She didn't have a single clue about what she should do to get rid of this seed of fear. In the end she decided to stare at him in hopes that usually she wouldn't fear much if she faced it directly.
While listening to them talking she really became relaxed a little while looking at him but just as he turned to look at her while saying that she should stop looking at him her body trembled against her will. It seemed that she wasn't going to get rid of this seed of fear so soon.
The only way she could think of was him getting killed but she had a feeling it wouldn't happen in this inheritance site at least. It seemed she had to stop cultivating for a few days or not get implicated.
Pei Lingxi had felt Lian Zhi's trembling, she sighed inwardly. She could understand that Lian Zhi's reaction was a little extreme. She had been too scared due to losing hope of living and since it was her first time feeling something like this it had become a knot inside her.
She had to find a way to solve this issue, she could think of one way which was also linked with something she wanted to do but it all depended on him agreeing to it.
She didn't like mincing her words much so she decided to ask, "Brother Feng..."
Lin Feng looked at her, "What is it?" He could feel that she wanted to ask something which she wasn't too sure if she should ask or not. He already didn't consider her a stranger, and if she never did anything to betray him he would treat her as someone who was a close acquaintance to him.
He wouldn't mind listening to her demands as long as her demands didn't harm his self-interest and impact his closest ones.
Pei Lingxi took a small breath, "Would you mind dual cultivating with me..."
Lin Feng got surprised and so did Bai Lian, Lian Zhi on the other hand got stunned, she couldn't believe what she had heard.
Lin Feng was surprised because he could easily discern if someone was looking at him with desire in their eyes, till now he didn't feel anything like that. It wasn't surprising because he was wearing a mask, so it meant that Pei Lingxi just wanted to dual cultivate for only cultivation purposes. She must have made that decision by seeing his yang qi.
Well he didn't mind, he was free for these ten days and she was quite beautiful. If she didn't have any problem then he didn't have any either, "Alright, why would I mind..."
Very few people would mind dual cultivating with Pei Lingxi even if they didn't get anything in return, embracing her is already a benefit.
Pei Lingxi sighed listening to that while Bai Lian shook her head inwardly, she was really surprised hearing Pei Lingxi ask that question, they hadn't even seen how Lin Feng looked.
Even disciples of Yin Yang Harmony Sect didn't dual cultivate with just anyone, they always looked for good-looking people. It seemed that the purity of Lin Feng's yang qi was enough for Pei Lingxi to discard everything else. As for Lin Feng agreeing, why would he even disagree unless he was one of those bald monks in reality...
"Thank you brother Feng for agreeing, there is one more thing, I hope you also don't mind if Lian Zhi joined.." Pei Lingxi wasn't just wanting to dual cultivate, she wanted to use this to remove fear from Lian Zhi, if he agreed then it would be perfect.
Lian Zhi's eyes widened, she wanted to say no out of instinct but Pei Lingxi squeezed her hand. This made her stop and think deeply, she immediately understood what sister Lingxi was trying to achieve. If she really go through it than her inherent fear would indeed fade away.
Lin Feng had a knowing expression, how could he not know about the state of Lian Zhi, if she didn't do anything quickly then her fear of him would just deepen inside her.
Pei Lingxi had decided to use dual cultivation to curb this fear and it would really work if he treated her gently. Although Pei Lingxi didn't specifically ask him to do it, he would still be gentle with her.
Bai Lian could also read the mood so she also understood everything. She wondered if they were going to do it right now..., "I think it's time for me to leave?"
"You can stay here sister Bai, there are plenty of chambers inside this residence" Pei Lingxi spoke immediately.
Bai Lian thought for a moment before nodding slowly, if she went out then those bastards would again try to hit on her and she was tired of making fake expressions. Without Pei Lingxi and Lian Zhi beside her it would become even harder. Her residence was a little far away and she couldn't teleport there directly.
"Then I will meet you guys later" she stood up and went to find a chamber as far as she could. Her face was red thinking what was about to happen and not to mention she would be staying so near to them.
