Chapter 476 - 237: Learned Bad Things (Part 2)
During the past six months, she had already grown accustomed to his presence, feeling that their bodies were perfectly compatible, as if they were made for each other. They were meant to be together forever in dual cultivation.
Although they had agreed to cultivate together for only six months, now Chen Yunqi wasn’t willing to part.
So she tried to act cute, then tempted him with benefits, but unfortunately, none of it worked on Chu Xuan, so she had to resort to the ultimate technique of a woman: crying, making a scene, and threatening. In short, she was acting spoiled.
Faced with the beauty clinging tightly to him, Chu Xuan’s expression was somewhat helpless, "Yunqi, don’t be like this."
Chen Yunqi sobbed, "I knew it. You’ve turned me into ’medicine dregs’ and now you want to kick me aside. Am I no longer valuable in your mind?"
Chu Xuan shook his head, "Don’t talk nonsense. Look at your vibrant spirit and rapid cultivation; you don’t resemble ’medicine dregs’ in the slightest."
"I also said I wouldn’t just leave. You’ll still be my subordinate, working for me. We’ll meet again."
"Only a subordinate? No, I want to be your woman openly and honorably."
Chen Yunqi wasn’t even sure if she was speaking her true feelings; she just sincerely hoped Chu Xuan would continue to stay with her.
Chu Xuan was suddenly silent, making Chen Yunqi a bit unaccustomed to his quietness.
After hugging him for a while, she finally let go, sat up, and sighed lightly, "I was just joking. Don’t worry; I’ll keep my promise."
Saying that, Chen Yunqi took Chu Xuan’s hands, gazed into his eyes, and said sincerely, "One more time with me, okay?"
Just as Chu Xuan was about to agree, she added, "Not dual cultivation, just like Dao companions, like a couple, purely enjoying the pleasures of the chambers."
Chu Xuan hesitated for a moment, but finally nodded, "Just this once."
He had sworn not to hesitate or be confused anymore, to act according to his true desires.
Chen Yunqi’s lips curled into a smile, her eyes filled with joy. She didn’t mind if this was the last time; she held Chu Xuan’s face and kissed his warm and soft lips, just as he had done to her for the first time...
...
When the two of them bathed, dressed, and walked out hand in hand from the Tai Xu Hall, Xiao Xue, or rather Ji Mingyu, had a face as dark as the bottom of a pot.
Because the six months were up, she had been counting down the days, unable to stay for even a moment longer, just wanting to leave with Chu Xuan as soon as possible.
After waiting for a long time without Chu Xuan coming out, she couldn’t resist sneaking in to take a peek.
Good heavens, they were still at it! That woman was making sounds like—she glanced once, then hurriedly looked away, continuing to wait outside.
Seeing them come out now, "Xiao Xue" still had a face full of resentment.
Chen Yunqi chuckled softly, "Such a jealous little one, giving him back to you now~"
Saying this, she turned around to gently help Chu Xuan tidy his collar, her eyes filled with warmth and affection.
"Remember to come back to see me," she said softly.
Chu Xuan nodded, then stepped forward to take Xiao Xue’s hand and flew away without hesitation.
Watching his departing figure without turning back, Chen Yunqi’s eyes flashed with a hint of melancholy, then she mocked herself, "Master, I can somewhat understand how you felt back then."
...
On the way, although Xiao Xue initially showed a "won’t be easily comforted" demeanor, under Chu Xuan’s efforts, she eventually broke into a smile again.
Of course, Ji Mingyu wasn’t always online; once coaxed, she would log off to prevent Xiao Xue from taking too much advantage.
Only at times like this could Xiao Xue return to a normal relationship with Chu Xuan. Although she was full of things to rant about, she could say nothing, ultimately shaking her head helplessly and saying, "As long as you two are fine, I’m satisfied."
Chu Xuan seemed puzzled, "You two? Me and Chen Yunqi?"
Xiao Xue was secretly annoyed, wondering if this guy was genuinely stupid or just pretending.
She had to change the topic, "So next, are we off to the Lingshu Pill Sect? The Alchemy Dao Conference should be starting soon, right?"
Chu Xuan shook his head, "No hurry, I need to meet someone first."
"Where to, who are you meeting?"
"Cyan Lotus Daoist Palace, an old acquaintance."
Xiao Xue was taken aback, "Daoist Palace?? You’re going back at this time?"
"Didn’t you say you wanted to separate the identities of ’Tian Xie’ and ’Chu Xuan’? It’s not a good time to return, is it? You haven’t cleared your name yet."
Chu Xuan chuckled lightly, "Don’t worry, I won’t reveal myself. The person I want to meet will come to find me."
Xiao Xue was still a bit confused, "Your master? Or Jiang Yiyi? Surely it’s not your little junior brother or sister?"
Chu Xuan didn’t answer, merely urging the beauty head to speed up towards Cyan Lotus Daoist Palace. Fortunately, Lingshu Pill Sect was also in the eastern region, not far from the Daoist Palace, so it shouldn’t delay the next plan.
Unexpectedly, at this moment, the usually silent and quiet beauty head suddenly spoke up, using a halting but quite melodious voice, "Chu Xuan, can I cultivate with you?"
Chu Xuan almost lost his footing and fell off the flying sword, and Xiao Xue was utterly stunned, "Sister, you only have a head left, and yet you want to cultivate with someone?"
Even Ji Mingyu, hidden aside, was dumbfounded, unable even to muster the energy to get angry.
Chu Xuan turned around, wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, and looked at the beauty head, who had temporarily spoken from the flying sword, puzzled, "When did you learn to speak, and how did you come up with such a strange idea?"
The beauty head responded word by word, "In these six months, at the Hehuan Sect, listening to them talk, I learned."
It was then that Chu Xuan realized the beauty head had accompanied him in the deserted northern region, with few people around for her to learn from.
Now, after spending half a year with him in the Hehuan Sect, she finally had plenty of "learning material," but... oh my, sister, you learned from the wrong role model!
How could you learn from the female cultivators of the Hehuan Sect? No wonder your first words were about ’seeking dual cultivation’.
At this moment, Chu Xuan deeply regretted not paying enough attention to the beauty head during the past six months. This was essentially her ’enlightenment lesson’ after gaining wisdom, which could have a profound impact on her future, and now she had gone astray from the start...
Chu Xuan had no choice but to patch up the situation, sternly saying, "The Hehuan Sect isn’t a proper sect. You’d better forget what you learned from them."
The beauty head was puzzled, "What’s improper about it?"
Chu Xuan opened his mouth, realizing this could be a lengthy explanation that she might not even understand. So he asked, "Why are you suddenly asking about dual cultivation?"
"The women at the Hehuan Sect often discussed you, saying you are a Dual Cultivation Holy Body."
"The sect leader also likes you a lot, practicing dual cultivation with you every day."
"You’re leaving, and she’s reluctant to let you go."
"I know that male and female cultivators can enhance their cultivation through dual cultivation, so I was wondering if I could cultivate with you to help restore my body."
"I’ve observed, and I should be female."
The beauty head became more fluent as she spoke, and by the last sentence, her tone was quite earnest.
Chu Xuan held his head in his hand. He wanted to retort that even if she hadn’t seen how he and Chen Yunqi cultivated, she should have learned something by watching other Hehuan Sect disciples cultivate together, right?
"Your idea is impractical and should be abandoned early; I can almost be certain that cultivating with me has no effect on restoring your body."
The beauty head showed a hint of doubt, as if saying: How do you know if you don’t try?
So, Chu Xuan had to grit his teeth and say, "Besides, you only have a head left; there’s no way for you to engage in dual cultivation."
The beauty head was puzzled, "But I still have a mouth. I’ve seen those Hehuan Sect female disciples..."
"Stop, stop, don’t say any more," Chu Xuan quickly interrupted, sweating profusely. Are you sure they were engaging in dual cultivation?
