Chapter 372: Dream, Master’s Guide!

“Buzz, buzz, buzz!”

Inside the Immortal Cave, as the Yin Yang Creation Scripture circulated, the Yin-Yang Two Qi and the Sun Moon Reincarnation Art intertwined. Lu Changsheng felt his mind grow hazy, as if he had entered a grand dream, and the scene before his eyes began to change.

Not only him, but Lu Miaoge, who was intertwined with him, also felt her mind grow dim, and they entered the dream together.

At the same time, Qingyun Sect.

Inside the palace on Caiyun Peak’s summit.

“Hmm?”

Yun Wanchang, who was Cultivating, suddenly felt a mysterious tremor in her heart.

She was not unfamiliar with this sensation.

When Lu Changsheng and his Disciple, Xiao Xiyue, Cultivated the Sun Moon Reincarnation Art, she had experienced such tremors several times.

But this tremor was countless times stronger than the previous ones.

Her ‘Su Nu Reincarnation Skill,’ which she had been unable to Master before, seemed to sense a profound Opportunity at this moment and began to circulate automatically.

Yun Wanchang’s beautiful eyes narrowed slightly, and she immediately attempted to circulate this Cultivation Technique, then entered a mysterious state.

In the world of ice and snow.

“Mommy, there’s a little baby crying.”

A five or six-year-old girl with a cute, exquisitely carved face pointed at a swaddling cloth in front of her and said in a clear, crisp voice.

The woman called ‘Mommy’ by the little girl was about twenty-six or seven years old and extremely beautiful.

Her dark, flowing hair cascaded over her shoulders, shimmering with a crystalline softness in the icy landscape.

On her exquisite face, her willow-like eyebrows curved like a crescent moon of emerald feathers, her calm, beautiful eyes resembled a clear autumn pool, crystal clear, her vermilion lips were rosy, and her delicate nose was perfectly sculpted like white jade, giving her an inherent nobility and aloofness.

She was tall and slender, dressed in a magnificent multi-colored gown, her soft, graceful curves subtly revealed, adding a touch of color to the world of ice and snow.

The woman saw the infant in the swaddling cloth, and at her daughter’s plea, she brought the baby back to the Sect and took him in as a Disciple.

Because there was a wooden token in the infant’s arms with the character ‘Lu’ carved on it, she named the infant Lu Changsheng.

She hoped he would seek the Dao of Longevity in the future.

Under the care of the mother and daughter, little Changsheng gradually grew up and began to Cultivate.

Although he only had a Medium Grade Spiritual Root, his Cultivation seemed to have no Bottleneck, progressing with incredible speed.

Moreover, he learned any Cultivation Technique or Spell instantly and mastered it proficiently.

However, Lu Changsheng was very low-key. He never competed with others in his daily life and still sought advice on Cultivation from his Senior Sister and Master.

As Lu Changsheng grew older and Broke Through to Foundation Establishment, he and his childhood sweetheart, his Senior Sister, decided to spend their lives together and, with Master’s approval, became Dao Companions.

But for some unknown reason, Lu Changsheng always harbored a strange feeling in his heart for his Master, who was both his teacher and a mother figure.

A feeling he didn’t even want to control, a desire to possess.

However, he knew that this feeling was too rebellious and could only be buried in his heart, never to be revealed.

Yet, his Senior Sister, who had grown up with him and become his wife, sensed that something was amiss.

“Senior Sister, I think this dress is very beautiful and suits you well. Try it on.”

One day, Lu Changsheng presented a luxurious multi-colored dress to his Senior Sister.

“This colorful dress, why does it resemble Mother’s clothes a bit?”

His Senior Sister looked at the colorful dress and frowned slightly.

“Oh, really? I just thought this dress would look very good on Senior Sister when I saw it.”

Lu Changsheng said with a serious expression.

His Senior Sister was gentle and soft-spoken, never throwing tantrums, and she doted on and cared for her Husband, Lu Changsheng, very much.

Although she felt something was off, she didn’t say anything and, complying with Lu Changsheng, changed into the luxurious multi-colored dress.

But afterward, her Husband kept giving her dresses and accessories similar to her Mother’s, and even for fun, asked her to pretend to be Master in appearance and demeanor, which made her feel a bit uncomfortable.

“Why do you always make me imitate Mother?”

His Senior Sister pouted, sounding a little wronged.

“Senior Sister, I’m sorry, I’m sorry. I just thought you would look very beautiful that way. If you don’t like it, I’ll never ask you to do it again.”

Lu Changsheng quickly coaxed his Senior Sister.

Although he harbored a strange feeling for Master.

His affection for his Senior Sister was genuine; he didn’t want to see her sad or upset.

“If Mother found out, she’d definitely beat you to death.”

Seeing her Husband’s expression, his Senior Sister stopped being angry and said with a pout.

“Changsheng, you… you wouldn’t have feelings for Mother, would you?”

One day, his Senior Sister’s jade-like skin was covered in sweat, her beautiful face flushed with a rose-red aura, and she looked at Lu Changsheng with some hesitation and doubt.

However, as soon as the words left her mouth, she immediately felt a sense of advancement, and her heart trembled.

“Senior Sister, what are you talking about? That’s Master! How could I possibly have feelings for Master!”

Lu Changsheng immediately retorted.

Although he indeed had such thoughts, how could he let his Senior Sister know?

He continued to argue, “Master’s appearance, looks, and talent are all unparalleled in the world, naturally inspiring admiration, but I’m not a pervert.”

“I just think Master’s clothes also suit Senior Sister very well. In my heart, Senior Sister is the best in the world.”

Although his Senior Sister was gentle and usually went along with Lu Changsheng on many things, she was not foolish; in fact, she was very intelligent.

When she asked that question, she had already sensed that something was amiss and was testing him.

Through her Husband’s subtle reactions, she almost confirmed her suspicions in her heart.

This made her feel both wronged and angry, wondering how her Junior Brother could harbor such wicked thoughts.

However, thinking of Mother’s unparalleled grace and how countless people in the Cultivation World admired and secretly loved Mother, it seemed somewhat normal.

After this incident, Lu Changsheng also knew that his Senior Sister had noticed his little secret and no longer made such excessive demands in that regard.

But his Senior Sister could tell that her Husband, who had previously been able to relieve his wicked thoughts through marital intimacy, was now suppressing them, which was even affecting his Cultivation.

She felt it was necessary to have a good talk with her Junior Brother.

As the couple discussed the matter openly, Lu Changsheng explained that he didn’t know why, but he had some inexplicable feelings for Master.

However, he promised that he would never dare to have any improper thoughts about Master.

Upon hearing this, his Senior Sister also expressed that occasionally, they could use intimate means to help Lu Changsheng relieve his wicked thoughts.

“Changsheng, do I look this good as Master?”

That day, his Senior Sister had her hair styled in a high bun, wore a luxurious multi-colored gown, had elaborate makeup, and a three-petal rose-red floral pattern drawn on her forehead, adding a touch of elegance and splendor to her usually fresh and beautiful, gentle face.

“Beautiful, beautiful.”

Lu Changsheng said without hesitation.

His Senior Sister’s appearance was five parts similar to Master’s, but at this moment, it was eight parts similar.

The only minor flaw was that his Senior Sister was too gentle, lacking Master’s unparalleled grace and noble aloofness.

“Call me Master.”

His Senior Sister said with a giggle.

“Master!”

Lu Changsheng embraced his Senior Sister’s soft, fragrant body and called out.

“Mmm, what are you doing? I’m your Master~”

His Senior Sister pretended to struggle, teasing her Junior Brother.

However, just as the two were intimately whispering, a beautiful woman dressed in a multi-colored gown arrived at the small courtyard.

Seeing the two being intimate, her exquisitely graceful face immediately showed astonishment and anger.

“Mother!”

“Master.”

Lu Changsheng and his Senior Sister, seeing Master before them, quickly sat up, not daring to look at Master, feeling as if they were sitting on pins and needles.

Master’s beautiful face was now like a ten-thousand-year-old ice mountain, radiating an indescribable coldness and majesty.

Her tall, curvaceous jade-like body trembled, her bosom heaving, as if the air itself had frozen solid at that moment.

Master said nothing, turning around with a frosty face and leaving the small courtyard.

“Mother!”

His Senior Sister called out with a sob, but Master’s figure had already vanished.

“This is my fault. I will go and apologize to Master now.”

Lu Changsheng felt very distressed seeing his Senior Sister like this, believing he had let down both Master and his Senior Sister.

But his Senior Sister said she was also at fault, and they went together to apologize.

They knelt before Master’s hall for three days and three nights before Master finally emerged from the hall with a cold expression.

As a Core Formation cultivator, she had long noticed that this Disciple sometimes looked at her with an unusual gaze.

And she was very familiar with this gaze, having seen it in many people’s eyes.

She had merely considered it youthful infatuation.

But she never expected her daughter to go along with this Disciple’s wild behavior!

After this incident, Master sent Lu Changsheng to the border to slay demons and monsters, to temper himself.

Upon hearing this, his Senior Sister expressed her desire to go with her Husband, Lu Changsheng.

Master sighed and nodded in agreement.

The couple spent thirty years slaying demons and monsters at the border, earning quite a reputation.

As time went on, Lu Changsheng Cultivated all the way to Late Stage Foundation Establishment and began preparing for Core Formation.

Even with Master’s care, Core Formation was extremely difficult for him.

However, he had good Luck. Through various Opportunities, he narrowly escaped danger several times and finally gathered the resources for Core Formation, preparing to attempt the Core Formation Breakthrough.

“Your mind is too chaotic.”

Master, who was acting as Lu Changsheng’s Protector, saw his appearance and spoke.

“I know, Master.”

Lu Changsheng said softly.

He didn’t know why, but looking at Master at this moment, he felt an inexplicable restlessness in his heart.

It was as if his feelings for Master over the years were about to erupt completely.

“Focus on Core Formation.”

Master looked at Lu Changsheng and gently stroked his head, just as she had when he was young.

When Lu Changsheng first began to Cultivate as a child and encountered problems, Master would comfort him in this way.

However, as he grew older, he hadn’t had such intimate contact with Master for a long time.

Gazing at Master’s perfect, almost dreamlike face before him, Lu Changsheng’s heart trembled.

Suddenly, with an unknown surge of courage, he abruptly pulled Master’s jade hand and embraced her.

“Mmm!”

Master exclaimed, thinking of retaliating but fearing she would hurt Lu Changsheng.

Moreover, she realized that Lu Changsheng’s current state was abnormal.

He was likely experiencing a Heart Demon due to his chaotic emotions while preparing for Core Formation, affecting his mind.

The moment she fell into Lu Changsheng’s embrace, his hot masculine breath enveloped her, and her crystal-like, dreamy eyes widened abruptly as a familiar face drew near.

At this moment, time seemed to freeze.

Wonderful, simply wonderful!

Lu Changsheng kissed Master’s fragrant lips, trembling with excitement.

He never imagined that one day he would actually be able to kiss Master.

And he had never realized that kissing could feel so wonderful.

Master’s red lips were as tender and sweet as flowers, as soft and yielding as white clouds, as warm and gentle as warm jade, and like a divine elixir, a mere sip would make one intoxicated.

At the same time, Master’s mind went blank, her five senses amplified to the extreme, especially the warmth of her red lips.

It was as if she had been electrocuted, currents flowing from her lips throughout her entire body, giving her an indescribable sensation.

There was a sense of helplessness and embarrassment that was difficult to articulate.

“Thump, thump, thump—”

Master’s graceful body stiffened, and she seemed to hear her own heart beating in her chest, causing her blood to flow faster and her cheeks to gradually flush crimson.

“Bang!”

Master forcefully pushed Lu Changsheng away, though it was only for a single breath.

But the sensation on her lips struck her soul, leaving her entire body with an unfamiliar softness, and the expression in her eyes shifted from astonishment, to bewilderment, to panic, and then to anger.

“Focus on Core Formation!”

Master said with a cold face.

Her cold demeanor was exactly the same as when she had caught him and his Senior Sister playing around years ago.

In an instant, Lu Changsheng completely calmed down.

He didn’t know why he had such an impulse just now, daring to behave so presumptuously and disrespectfully.

This was his Master!

His Master, who was both his teacher and a mother figure!

After so many years, his relationship with Master had finally eased.

But now, he had acted so presumptuously again, bringing their relationship to a freezing point.

If his Senior Sister knew that he not only harbored improper thoughts about Master but also made such a presumptuous move, he would be too ashamed to face his Senior Sister.

“Core Formation!”

Master’s cold and authoritative voice continued to ring out.

Looking at Master before him, Lu Changsheng held his breath, calmed down, and began to seriously attempt Core Formation.

He successfully Broke Through to Core Formation.

However, when he opened his eyes, Master was no longer there.

Lu Changsheng wanted to find Master to apologize, but her face was cold, and she didn’t say much to him, heading to the border to take charge.

Facing such a situation, Lu Changsheng sighed, consolidated his Cultivation Realm, and then fully helped his Senior Sister achieve Core Formation.

However, just as his Senior Sister had Broke Through to Core Formation, Lu Changsheng heard that the Yao Race had invaded the border.

Master, while guarding the border, had disappeared, suspected to be in trouble.

Lu Changsheng immediately rushed to the border, intending to enter the Ten Thousand Mountains to search for Master.

However, how dangerous was the Ten Thousand Mountains?

Let alone a Core Formation cultivator, even a Nascent Soul cultivator might perish if they entered it.

Lu Changsheng thought that Master coming to the border to take charge was related to him, and he resolutely entered the Ten Thousand Mountains.

Heaven rewards the diligent; he finally found traces of Master.

Master was being pursued by a Yao King.

He burned his lifespan and used a Divine Ability to slay this Yao King with Master.

This journey of intense fighting had already exhausted Lu Changsheng.

At this moment, the life-burning Divine Ability made him feel like a spent arrow, almost on the verge of collapsing.

“Master, I found you.”

He looked at the beautiful figure before him, a smile on his face, and spoke.

“Changsheng.”

Master looked at her Disciple, who was covered in blood and full of weariness and fatigue, and her eyes showed distress.

Actually, for this Disciple, she didn’t know why, but she always had a strange feeling.

Love? No.

Hate? Not that either.

This feeling was very complex; she herself couldn’t explain or describe it.

After being kissed by this Disciple, she even felt a sense of first love, a vague,懵 懵 懂 懂 feeling.

So much so that after all these years, she still remembered the details of her kiss with Lu Changsheng.

That’s why she had been stationed at the border all these years; besides not wanting to see him, she was also a bit afraid to see Lu Changsheng, and also her own daughter.

Seeing Lu Changsheng, who was severely injured before her, she brought him to a cave to heal and rest.

His injuries were more severe than she had imagined, so she immediately took out a Medicinal Pill and had him take it.

“Changsheng, why did you enter the Ten Thousand Mountains?”

Master asked Lu Changsheng.

“I heard that Master was missing, so I guessed you might have entered the Ten Thousand Mountains, and I was very worried about you.”

Lu Changsheng said, his face pale and weak.

Upon hearing this, Master thought of Lu Changsheng’s earlier words, ‘Master, I found you,’ and her heart felt a pang of sweetness and emotion.

The Ten Thousand Mountains was full of dangers.

Even with Core Formation strength, a Disciple would have a nine out of ten chance of dying.

Seeing the state of her Disciple’s injuries, she knew how many dangers he had gone through.

She wanted to scold Lu Changsheng for risking his life like that.

But seeing her Disciple’s pale and weak appearance, she ultimately swallowed her words.

The infant she had once brought back to the Sect had, unknowingly, grown into an adult, capable of standing on his own.

“This place is not suitable for long stays. You should heal quickly, and I will refine medicine for your recovery.”

Master sighed, her voice much gentler.

She took out a Pill Furnace and put the recently slain Yao King into it for refining medicine.

“Thank you, Master.”

Lu Changsheng saw that Master’s face was no longer so cold and responded with a smile.

Knowing that demons and monsters could appear in the Ten Thousand Mountains at any time, he had to heal as quickly as possible.
