Chapter 463: Does this woman have some hidden attributes?

“That’s right,” Nangong Mili admitted frankly.

After all, her purpose for this trip was precisely that.

If she denied it and said she simply came for revenge, it would seem too fake.

But this man brought it up himself; did he want to warm her Golden Core?

“Heh heh,” Lu Changsheng chuckled, gently caressing Nangong Mili’s cold and enchanting cheek, and whispered, “You know, Husband always responds better to softness than hardness.”

Nangong Mili’s eyes were clear and narrow, like swirling mist, and she understood what he meant.

She could have her Golden Core warmed, but she had to humble herself and beg him.

They already had this relationship, and now that he was treating her like this, lowering her head and softening seemed like no big deal.

After all, compared to the Opportunity of a Golden Core, what was humbling herself?

How many people wanted it but couldn’t get it!

But thinking of everything between herself and Lu Changsheng, Nangong Mili couldn’t bring herself to lower her head.

“Heh heh, Husband isn’t asking you to do anything; just speak properly,” Lu Changsheng said softly, his face handsome and his eyes gentle.

Hearing such gentle words, a strange feeling suddenly surged in Nangong Mili’s heart.

Although this scoundrel of a man was like a storm just now, he didn’t humiliate her to death as he did back then.

Otherwise, with this scoundrel of a man’s physique, even if she was a Core Formation True Person, she would probably…

Moreover, Lu Changsheng had healed her in the early years and given her exotic treasures.

Now, he suppressed her, but she had made the first move, and he had indirectly saved her life.

Even his recent humiliation and mistreatment of her were because she had angered him.

Thinking this way, Nangong Mili suddenly felt as if it was her fault.

“Alright, tell me about your situation these past few years. Husband truly has been concerned about you and Nangong Yaoyao.”

Lu Changsheng’s gaze remained gentle and warm as he pulled Nangong Mili into his embrace, resting his chin on her hair, and spoke softly.

Although Nangong Mili knew that Lu Changsheng’s demeanor was feigned, she softened a bit and whispered, “After my injuries were mostly healed, Xiao Chan and I returned to Jin Country by crossing the Ten Thousand Beast Mountain Range.”

“As for anything else, there’s nothing to say.”

She knew that Lu Changsheng was different from many Righteous Path Cultivators and didn’t have too many Righteous and Demonic notions.

But he was ultimately not a Demonic Path Cultivator.

There was nothing to say to Lu Changsheng about what she had done in the Five Poison Sect.

“Crossing the Ten Thousand Beast Mountain Range…” Lu Changsheng nodded slightly, knowing that Nangong Mili and Meng Xiaochun crossing the Ten Thousand Beast Mountain Range at that time was also very dangerous.

Moreover, traveling from the Ten Thousand Beast Mountain Range to Jin Country required a very large detour.

“What about Nangong Yaoyao?” Lu Changsheng continued to ask, as this was what he cared about most.

“Nangong Yaoyao is my daughter, and she has nothing to do with you!”

“Lu Changsheng, I warn you, don’t even think about her!” Nangong Mili immediately said with a wary expression.

However, the spring charm had not yet faded from her exquisite and beautiful face, making her appear incredibly enchanting, completely lacking any deterrent power.

“She’s my daughter; how could I not care about her?” Lu Changsheng said helplessly.

However, through Nangong Mili’s reaction, he knew that she indeed loved this daughter very much, so there was no need to worry about his daughter being bullied.

As for whether his daughter had gone astray, Lu Changsheng no longer cared.

Having such a mother and growing up in a place like the Five Poison Sect, it would be strange if she didn’t go astray.

So Lu Changsheng had already set his psychological expectations to avoid disappointment after meeting her.

“Hmph, no matter what, she’s my daughter, and she has nothing to do with you.” Nangong Mili’s cold, beautiful eyes narrowed, refusing to budge.

Her daughter, Nangong Yaoyao, was her bottom line.

Even if she wanted Lu Changsheng to warm her Golden Core, she was unwilling to give her daughter to him.

“Jin Country, a place like the Five Poison Sect, is ultimately not a good place. It’s not good for Nangong Yaoyao to grow up in such an environment,” Lu Changsheng sighed softly.

“What’s wrong with the Five Poison Sect! Is it good in your Bihu Mountain!?” Nangong Mili immediately became displeased.

Although the Demonic Path had a bad reputation.

But in her opinion, Righteous and Demonic Paths were all the same; how much better could the Righteous Path be?

Moreover, as the Heavenly Spider Envoy of the Five Poison Sect, her daughter could receive the greatest allocation of resources and cultivation in the Five Poison Sect, and would surely reach Core Formation in the future, possibly even Nascent Soul.

In Bihu Mountain, this scoundrel of a man had countless wives and concubines, and who knew how many children; what could he give her daughter?

“Alright, alright, tell me about Nangong Yaoyao’s situation, then?” Lu Changsheng saw her ruffled appearance, embraced her graceful jade body, gently stroked her smooth hair, and inhaled her rich body fragrance.

He didn’t know if it was her Cultivation Technique or the effect of her Xuanyin Charming Body, but this fragrance was very pleasant.

“…” Nangong Mili’s fleeting emotions immediately dissipated.

She felt that this man was truly fickle.

Just now he was contradicting her, but now he was so gentle.

However, this gentle demeanor also softened Nangong Mili’s heart.

“Nangong Yaoyao is doing very well; she has already broken through to Foundation Establishment and can stand on her own,” Nangong Mili said softly, a hint of pride in her eyes.

Her daughter’s Aptitude far surpassed her own, and her future achievements would also surpass hers, so she was very proud of her daughter, Nangong Yaoyao.

However, thinking that she had been away for so long and hadn’t seen her daughter in a long time, she felt a bit of longing.

After all, she had been by her daughter’s side since her birth.

“Later, I’ll go to Jin Country with you to see Nangong Yaoyao.” Lu Changsheng found Nangong Mili’s appearance somewhat amusing and pinched her cheek, saying.

“No! She’s my daughter, and she has nothing to do with you!” Nangong Mili immediately bristled at these words, pushing Lu Changsheng away, and said coldly.

In her opinion, this man just wanted to snatch her daughter away.

Even his tenderness towards her, his meticulous planning, was all to snatch her daughter away.

Just like back then, he had humiliated her in every way, but once he knew she had a child, he became full of tender affection.

Thinking of this, a wave of grievance suddenly surged in Nangong Mili’s heart.

“She’s my daughter too!” Lu Changsheng looked at her protective demeanor, feeling a bit speechless, as if he would harm his own daughter.

Seeing Nangong Mili still with a frosty face and angry Phoenix eyes, Lu Changsheng immediately pressed her beneath him.

This woman still owed…

“Lu Changsheng, you… you bastard! Shameless scoundrel! Scoundrel of a man!” Nangong Mili cursed loudly, her heart filled with humiliation, shame, and surging anger.

To think that she, a dignified Core Formation True Person, the Heavenly Spider Envoy of the Five Poison Sect in Jin Country, was now being wantonly humiliated by Lu Changsheng like this.

Afterward!

Afterward!

Afterward!

Lu Changsheng looked at the limp Nangong Mili, then suppressed her into the No Form Treasure Wheel again.

Although the Heavenly Yuan Treasure Emperor Lotus had a Grotto-heaven, he hadn’t fully refined it and couldn’t imprison or suppress people within it.

Moreover, there were still many things in the Heavenly Yuan Treasure Emperor Lotus, such as Cultivating Infant Flower and Heaven-Mending Ganoderma.

If this woman went crazy and destroyed them, he would truly have nowhere to cry.

“Scoundrel of a man, scoundrel of a man!” Nangong Mili immediately cursed when she saw Lu Changsheng suppress her into the Wu Xiang Realm again.

However, after the recent humiliation, her jade complexion was flushed, her entire body was soft and weak, and her voice was as thin as a wisp of silk, sounding almost like she was acting spoiled.

“Hiss…” Nangong Mili rubbed her burning buttocks.

She thought that this man was full of tenderness one moment, then changed his face the next, roughly contradicting her, and even wanted her to kneel on the ground…

“Scoundrel of a man, this grudge…” Nangong Mili gritted her teeth, wanting to utter harsh words.

But thinking that she was no match for Lu Changsheng at all, what if he heard her and tormented her again?

If this continued, she would really die.

“Hmph, sooner or later, I will make you repay all the humiliation you inflicted on me, a hundredfold!” Nangong Mili snorted softly, thinking this in her heart.

In the early years, she had thought about finding Lu Changsheng for revenge, imagining him filled with regret, weeping bitterly, kneeling before her begging for mercy, licking her high heels…

For some reason, thinking of this scene again, Nangong Mili’s soft and weak body suddenly trembled uncontrollably, and her breathing became suddenly rapid.

After fantasizing for a moment, Nangong Mili looked at the Yin-Yang fish coiled and swimming in her Qi Sea Dantian, and a difficult-to-describe, unique emotion surged in her heart again.

She closed her eyes and quietly refined this Yin-Yang Two Qi.

“???” Lu Changsheng looked at Nangong Mili in the Wu Xiang Realm, who suddenly had a flushed face, rapid breathing, and a joyful expression, feeling a bit bewildered.

What was going on?

Did this woman have some hidden attribute?

However, when she was in front of Husband, she had been suppressing herself. Now that she was suppressed into the Wu Xiang Realm, she stopped pretending?

“Hiss!”

Lu Changsheng looked at Nangong Mili in the Wu Xiang Realm. Her jade-like body was graceful and enchanting, wrapped only in a layer of purple gauze. Her beauty was breathtaking and incredibly stimulating. He decided to try it later.

After all, Nangong Mili’s strong personality, coupled with her status, naturally made people harbor other thoughts.

“Whoosh!”

Lu Changsheng took a deep breath, exhaled, and cleared his mind of distracting thoughts. He controlled the Starlight Disk and flew at full speed towards Bihu Mountain.

Four months had passed since the news of Old Ancestor Lu of Bihu Mountain perishing in the Tian Yuan Secret Realm.

Although the Lu Family had refuted the rumors, stating that Lu Changsheng’s Soul Lantern was still intact, most forces had already assumed that this Old Ancestor Lu had perished.

With Lu Ping’an and Lu Wangshu going to Golden Dragon Ridge to establish their prestige, the reputation of Bihu Mountain was solidified, and no one dared to openly challenge them.

However, secretly, some Family forces still caused trouble and tested the situation.

For example, the Lu Family Merchant Company, led by Lu Ruyi, encountered multiple waves of attacks along the way.

However, besides Lu Ruyi, the Merchant Company also had Zhou Datong and a Loose Cultivator Foundation Establishment Cultivator who had recently broken through with the help of Bihu Mountain.

With three Foundation Establishment Cultivators guarding them, they did not encounter too much danger.

After all, with previous lessons learned, even if some forces wanted to provoke the Lu Family, they wouldn’t dare to do so openly.

When the news returned to Bihu Mountain, Lu Wangshu sent three second-tier Puppets.

Lu Xianzhi also ordered his son, Lu Xuanyu, to bring the Lu Family’s trained Puppet guard team.

Three second-tier Puppets and thirty-six first-tier top-grade Puppets could form a simple formation, capable of trapping even an ordinary Foundation Establishment Cultivator.

This situation directly made the Lu Family’s Puppets famous.

At this moment, many forces realized that the Bihu Mountain Lu Family’s main business was not Medicinal Pills or Talismans, but Puppets!

At this moment.

Bihu Mountain.

“Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh——”

The Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi of Biyun Peak was suddenly stirred, gradually forming a Spiritual Qi vortex.

“Someone is attempting Foundation Establishment.”

The Disciples and Cultivators of the Lu Family were not surprised by this situation.

Ever since the Lu Family announced that they could refine Foundation Establishment Pills and offered free Alchemy, Cultivators continuously came to Bihu Mountain to seek Pills and attempt Foundation Establishment.

Therefore, in the past year or so, several people had already attempted Foundation Establishment at Bihu Mountain, leading to the outside world being unclear about how many Foundation Establishment Cultivators Bihu Mountain possessed.

After all, during such Foundation Establishment attempts, who knew if they were Loose Cultivators or Lu Family Disciples.

“Whoosh!”

However, several hours later, the Spiritual Qi vortex in the sky suddenly dispersed.

“Failed.”

Many people who witnessed this scene shook their heads and sighed.

Although many people had attempted Foundation Establishment in Bihu Mountain these past few years.

Even with Foundation Establishment Pills, the success rate was only thirty to fifty percent.

Inside the Immortal Cave’s secret chamber.

“Cai Zhen, I’m sorry. Husband is useless and wasted your Foundation Establishment Pill.”

Hong Xuanji’s face was pale, and he seemed to have aged instantly, his face filled with shame and disappointment.

He had thought that he would never have the chance to reach Foundation Establishment in this life.

But then his wife took out a Foundation Establishment Pill, giving him hope for Foundation Establishment.

When his father, Hong Yi, found out, he resolutely used all the Family’s savings to purchase Foundation Establishment Spiritual items for him.

However, in the end, it was all for naught.

“Husband, there’s no need to blame yourself. With your Aptitude and age, even with a Foundation Establishment Pill, failure is normal.”

Lu Caizhen looked at her Husband, who had aged considerably, and felt a pang of heartache.

She herself did not have a strong desire for Foundation Establishment, maintaining a calm state of mind.

However, she knew very well that her Husband deeply yearned for Foundation Establishment.

It was precisely because of this that she took out the Foundation Establishment Pill her brother had left behind years ago and asked her father for a Foundation Establishment Opportunity for Hong Xuanji.

But in the end, it still failed.

“Alas.”

Hong Xuanji sighed deeply, clenching his fists. How could he not blame himself?

“Husband, rest well. Foundation Establishment or not is not important. The key now is to recover your health.”

Lu Caizhen comforted him, taking out a porcelain bottle and giving it to Hong Xuanji.

Although consuming a Foundation Establishment Pill and failing to break through would not result in a backlash or life-threatening danger.

It would still cause some damage and depletion of Qi and blood, depending on the situation.

“Thank you, Cai Zhen.”

Hong Xuanji took the Medicinal Pill with a heavy expression and consumed it.

At the same time.

Xumi Grotto-heaven.

“Boom, boom, boom——”

The Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi surged and churned.

In all directions of the Grotto-heaven, the gray, misty Chaos Qi seemed to be opening up, constantly evolving.

“Is this a third-tier Spiritual Vein?”

Lu Miaoyun looked at the situation before her with some surprise.

Although she knew that the Spiritual Vein in Xumi Grotto-heaven was advancing towards the third tier.

But she did not know what a third-tier Spiritual Vein looked like or how rich its Spiritual Qi was.

“Hmm.”

Ling Zixiao nodded slightly and said, “However, compared to the Spiritual Vein’s advancement, Senior Xumi’s improvement seems to be even greater.”

She had some understanding of the Xumi Tree King’s situation.

She knew that under normal circumstances, the growth of such a demonic plant was very slow, perhaps taking thousands of years to improve even slightly.

However, the Xumi Tree King could use its inner world to nourish itself and accelerate its growth.

The original Xumi Grotto-heaven was a chaotic expanse with only simple outlines.

Now, with the nurturing of a third-tier Spiritual Vein, the other party also ushered in an improvement.

“Is this a True Spirit… This kind of growth is truly terrifying.”

In the peach wood spirit embryo, Red Lotus also awakened due to the Xumi Tree King’s movements, surprised by its growth rate.

Just one third-tier Spiritual Vein brought such an improvement.

If there were a fourth-tier Spiritual Vein, wouldn’t it directly grow from the third tier to the fourth tier?

“Boom, boom, boom——”

The Xumi Grotto-heaven continued to evolve, expanding its size.

“Miaoge, Miao Yun, you two watch.”

Ling Zixiao watched for a moment, then walked out of the Grotto-heaven and activated the Family’s grand formation to prevent the Xumi Tree King’s situation from causing too much commotion.

“Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh——”

The Tree King, whose entire body resembled gold and jade, gently swayed at this moment. It seemed as if Buddhist chants resounded, causing the entire peak of Biyun Peak to be filled with auspicious Qi and flowing divine radiance.

Although the Xumi Tree King could suppress its own movements, Ling Zixiao still fully activated the Inverted Five Elements Grand Formation on the mountaintop, causing a layer of invisible mist to slowly flow and surge.

Qingyun Sect, outside the mountain gate.

A sword light, as if falling from the Nine Heavens, revealed a beautiful woman with a delicate nose, sharp sword-like eyes, a cold expression, and a hint of heroism.

“Greetings, Immortal Master Qingyi!”

“Greetings, Immortal Master Qingyi!”

The Qingyun Sect Disciples guarding the mountain gate immediately showed surprise, joy, admiration, and respect when they saw this woman.

Even though they were only Qi Refining and Foundation Establishment Cultivators, they had heard the news of Chu Qingyi going missing in the Tian Yuan Secret Realm.

Seeing their Immortal Master return safely at this moment, they were naturally overjoyed.

“Hmm.”

Chu Qingyi took out her token and entered the Sect, looking at Caiyun Peak in the distance, subconsciously touching the ring on her ring finger.

Upon her return this time, her Master would surely ask what she encountered in the Tian Yuan Secret Realm.

But after so long, she still didn’t know how to describe her experience.

She took a deep breath, not flying directly to Caiyun Peak, but walking step by step towards Caiyun Peak.

The Qingyun Sect Disciples along the way, upon seeing her, all showed expressions of admiration, respect, reverence, and adoration, bowing to her in salute.

Chu Qingyi looked at these people, and Lu Changsheng’s previous words came to mind.

“Many Loose Cultivators do not hesitate to leave their families, abandon their lovers, and forsake their friends, drifting in all directions, just to seek immortality. Yet, in the end, they remain poor and desolate, buried in the wilderness, achieving nothing in the Dao.”

Not just Loose Cultivators.

Even if they joined the Qingyun Sect and became Immortal Sect Disciples, most people would not have the chance to reach Foundation Establishment.

Even if they achieved Foundation Establishment, how many would ultimately form a Golden Core?

As for Nascent Soul…

The vast Qingyun Sect currently had no Nascent Soul True Lord overseeing it.

“The Great Dao is long and arduous. If there are two or three trusted companions who support each other and walk through the vast years hand in hand, why is that not a great fortune?”

Seeing occasional couples, Chu Qingyi’s mind once again recalled this sentence.

Evidently, Lu Changsheng’s words and actions had succeeded.

Her originally clear and flawless Sword Heart was now stained with an indelible speck of dust.

“Alas.”

Chu Qingyi sighed softly, finally transforming into a sword light and instantly arriving at the peak of Caiyun Peak.
