Chapter 561: Appraising oneself?
Translator: G.o.dBrandy Editor: Kurisu
Song Shuhang, who was madly das.h.i.+ng about, started to feel somewhat uneasy at this time. Strange, why do I feel as though countless pairs of eyes are staring at me?
Is it just my misconception? After all, running on four limbs is a rather embarra.s.sing thing to do...
”There are still 1000 meters left,” Song Shuhang muttered to himself. Such being the case, he gritted his teeth and decided to finish the last 1000 meters in one go!
Thereupon, Song Shuhang used his fastest speed to cover the last 1000 meters.
Although seeing someone running on four limbs wasn't a good sight to behold, Shuhang had to admit that his comprehension toward the ❮Virtuous Man's Ten Thousand Mile Walk❯ had gotten much better while running in that posture.
Regardless of what we were talking about, if one were to look at it from a different angle, they would surely obtain new insights during their contemplation. One just couldn't look at things from only one side!
”It seems I've obtained some unexpected insight.”

At the entrance of the arena. Miss Chu Chu blinked her eyes and quietly left. I didn't think I would find Fellow Daoist Shuhang in there... but why was he running on four limbs?
Perhaps it's a hobby of his, who am I to judge! Anyway, perhaps he was practicing a cultivation technique?
Regardless of what Song Shuhang was doing in there, Chu Chu decided to pretend that she had seen nothing. She was a clever girl that knew how to protect the dignity of a man.
After all, saving the reputation of a person was a big deal.

In the meantime, the speed of the scene the disciples of the Crystal-Clear Water Pavilion saw on the screens started to speed up.
After all, the ratio of time between the Crystal-Clear Water Pavilion and the Time City was of 1:12.
As the broadcasting started, the speed of the scene was normal. However, it wasn't truly a live broadcast, and the scene was broadcast after it was stored inside the eight trigram mirror.
Then, just as the scene was broadcast for a certain amount of time, things literally started to speed up.
Halfway through the broadcast, the speed of Song Shuhang's actions increased by twelve times!
How to explain it properly... regardless of the scene, if its speed was increased by twelve times, everything would turn incredibly fast, to the point of becoming 'amusing'.
The disciples of the Crystal-Clear Water Pavilion felt the same. After watching the scene of Song Shuhang madly das.h.i.+ng about on his four limbs at a speed twelve times faster than normal, they started to find it somewhat cool.
Some of them took out their imprinting stones, photographic crystals, and so on to record the scene displayed on the screens.
It was such a wonderful scene, and it deserved to be stored.
❄️❄️❄️
In the Time City.
Song Shuhang finally completed his 5000 meters run!
At the same time, a warm feeling surged out in Song Shuhang's Sea of Qi Dantian.
The spiritual energy inside the horse-type spirit beast crystal was thoroughly absorbed, to the point that the portion of true qi Song Shuhang obtained from the crystal was now the same as the one he would obtain after practice. There was no need to refine it further.
Generally speaking, whenever 'spirit stones' or 'medicinal pills' were used to supplement one's practice, the cultivator had to refine several times the true qi obtained in the process. It was similar to a 'taming' process. After refining it, the cultivator could transform the foreign true qi into their own, and only at that time could they use it freely.
The true qi that condensed inside Song Shuhang's body after his 5000 meters run didn't need any refining and was the same as the one he would obtain from his daily practice.
”Although the posture was a little ugly, the overall effects were truly excellent,” Song Shuhang muttered to himself.
Then, after resting for a while, he got up and returned to Senior Sister Ye's 'library room'.
❄️❄️❄️
In the library room.
Senior Sister Ye had taken a huge chair out of nowhere.
At this time, she was curling up into a small ball, lying on the big chair. She was holding a thick book in her hands and reading it with great interest.
Although there wasn't any wind, her carefully braided pigtails would sway with each movement of her body.
It created a rather picturesque scene together with the pile books in the background.
As soon as Song Shuhang saw the scene after entering the room, he was mesmerized by it.
The curled up Senior Sister Ye seemed to have noticed that someone had entered the room. She raised her head and looked at Song Shuhang with her slightly red eyes. It seemed she had just cried.
Soon after, she put on a happy face and said gently, ”You are back.”
She was smiling with tears in her eyes.
Song Shuhang also replied gently, ”Yes, I'm back. Now that I've moved around a bit, my body feels much better.”
Afterward, he moved toward Senior Sister Ye and casually picked a thick book and bent his body down, preparing to sit on the floor next to Senior Sister Ye's body.
But right at this time, Senior Sister Ye moved her body away and made room for another person on the big chair.
The two of them were dating and were planning to ultimately become partners... such being the case, wasn't it normal to sit together?
Song Shuhang smiled and understood Senior Sister Ye's meaning. Therefore, he also got on the big chair, and the two of them leaned against each other.
Sweet~ Your smile is so sweet~ 1
❄️❄️❄️
This picture was likewise broadcast to each corner of the Crystal-Clear Water Pavilion through Song Shuhang's 'locating badge'.
A wave of sadness immediately spread through the whole Crystal-Clear Water Pavilion.
Even if the broadcast scene was twelve times faster than normal, it wasn't anything special before the powerful eyesight of cultivators. They could directly transform the sped up scene into a normal one within their brains.
The 'Miracle Tears' and 'Sobbing Beauty' of their Crystal-Clear Water Pavilion had really become someone else's woman.
”I feel like crying, I really feel like crying~”
”Quickly delete this scene! Why is such a scene getting broadcast, quickly get rid of it!”
”Why was such a cruel display of affection showed to the public?”
”My knees have gone soft, I can't even properly stand up... No, my whole body has gone soft... I need a cute junior or senior sister to give me a mouth-to-mouth insufflation to keep me alive.”
”I suddenly feel like practicing the ❮Tome of Never-Ending Tears❯.”
”Wait, if you practice the ❮Tome of Never-Ending Tears❯, you would be constantly reminded of Junior Sister Ye and feel even sadder.”
”But won't I be able to grasp the principle behind the ❮Tome of Never-Ending Tears❯ at an even faster pace then?”
”Ah? What you said actually makes sense.”
❄️❄️❄️
In the library room.
Song Shuhang took off the 'locating badge' on his chest and asked, ”Ye Si, I need to ask you something.”
Senior Sister Ye replied, ”What it is?”
”Earlier, while I was practicing, the badge started to emit a red light intermittently. Do you have any idea what it meant? Afterward, just as I stretched my hand and poked the badge, it stopped flas.h.i.+ng,” Song Shuhang said.
”...” Fairy Ye Si.
