CHAPTER 204: CHAPTER 203: NO EMOTIONAL THREADS (THIRD UPDATE, PLEASE SUBSCRIBE)

Organizing her clothes, setting everything in order, Liu Ruming regained her calm elegance, reflecting on everything that just happened, her mind in a sway.

This person is quite respectful.

Just now, when she was in a state of confusion, during the moment of her proactive approach, Lu Xuanji could have smoothly accepted, as it was a Primordial Yin of a woman near achieving the Golden Core, greatly beneficial to him.

Even if she woke up afterward, she couldn’t blame him, as she initiated it.

"Sir, indeed you are respectful. Even just now, despite you occupying my body, it’s nothing. If you feel like you still want, you can do it now!" Liu Ruming said, her expression calm, without a ripple.

"Ahem, better let it be!"

Lu Xuanji laughed, "If fellow cultivator still holds affection, a joyful union is not impossible. But I sense no affection from you, I don’t feel a trace of emotional threads."

"Emotional threads?"

Liu Ruming was slightly surprised, "It’s said only in the Nascent Soul Realm, with a strong spirit and keen sense, can one perceive the existence of emotional threads. Yet you, merely with Purple Mansion Cultivation, have sensed emotional threads. Quite remarkable! However, who said without emotional threads we can’t be together?"

"In fact, most couples get together without that intense passion; often it’s just getting by, with bland as the main theme. Mostly, couples are like birds in the same forest, each flying away when disaster strikes!"

"This time getting through the Human Tribulation, I owe it to you, the first life-saving grace; not long ago, you wore yourself out, resolving seven great cold poisons for me, another life-saving grace!"

Upon saying this, Liu Ruming’s expression grew solemn, "Grace as high as a mountain, how to repay? You lack neither Spirit Stones nor Elixirs, and other precious things can’t be given to you. Why not pledge myself to repay the cause and effect. After months of joy, you continue being your Lu Clan’s leader, and I continue being my Sword Cultivator!"

"Mutual dependency is less than forgetting each other in the rivers and lakes."

"The most genuine love in the world, what compares to mutual dependency; what heartlessness compares to forgetting each other in the rivers and lakes!"

As she spoke, Liu Ruming approached, feeling the heat close at hand, a faint fragrance, seemingly brewing like volcanic lava.

At this moment, less than a hand’s breadth away.

Just one more step forward and he could indulge, enjoy the body of an exquisite woman.

No need to bear any consequences, everything is smooth, everything is natural.

"We are moving too fast!"

Lu Xuanji laughed.

"Fast?" Liu Ruming said, "Then what is slow? Talking and loving for decades, then saying, I love you through life, you are my world, living for love and dying for love. I can’t do these; in my heart, the Lord is first, the sword is second, I am third, and love might be fifth or sixth!"

"If you feel slow, we can be joyful on the bed and understand each other!"

"Better let it be!"

Lu Xuanji laughed, "Love without emotional threads, what’s the difference from animals mating?"

"Haha!"

Liu Ruming laughed, "Many humans look down on animals, thinking humans are superior, emphasizing animals’ low-level interests, but they forget, humans are essentially animals too. Humans aren’t more noble than animals!"

"I can’t argue with you!"

Lu Xuanji laughed, no longer debating anything.

"Are you really going to refuse?" Liu Ruming laughed, her eyes seeming to peer into his essence.

Lu Xuanji didn’t answer, just stepped back, indicating his stance.

Among the many women he interacted with, some had emotional threads entangled, woven into emotional webs, unable to break free; some had emotional threads on and off, wanting to sever, yet unwilling.

But only on Liu Ruming, he didn’t feel a trace of emotional threads.

"Alright!"

Liu Ruming laughed, stepping back too, her smile carefree, "Thus, the cause and effect are resolved, don’t regret it!"

...

After the awkwardness of this incident, Liu Ruming quickly recovered her composure, seemingly as if nothing had happened.

Lu Xuanji continued healing, subconsciously distancing himself.

Three days later, he walked out of the Cave Mansion.

Stretching his limbs, the injuries had already healed.

"Fellow cultivator, I plan to go to Purple Sun Mountain, as for you, be careful outside!" Liu Ruming said.

"Alright!"

Lu Xuanji nodded, "Would those Demon Cultivators attack the Lu Family?"

"No!"

Liu Ruming said, "Because it’s not worth it. Demon Cultivators fight with wisdom and courage, but do not fight out of anger, nor recklessly. If Qi Refining Demon Cultivators are treated as cannon fodder, when it comes to Foundation Establishment and Purple Mansion, they are greatly valued, not easily sacrificed. Even when sacrificed, it must be meaningful!"

"The Lu Family has no value for an attack, killing over two thousand Qi Cultivation Cultivators, fifty Foundation Establishment Cultivators, two Purple Mansion Cultivators holds little significance for Demon Cultivators, instead exposing their traces and incurring great losses."

"Even you have no value for an attack, so-called prodigy, so-called demon talent, are mere illusion to the Demon Sect’s giants... They’ve seen too many geniuses, a mere Lu Xuanji doesn’t warrant their attack!"

Upon saying this, Liu Ruming vanished.

Lu Xuanji wanted to speak, but searched for silence.

Can’t just say, I want to sleep, please come back!

Suppressing miscellaneous thoughts, he retreated back home.

Though careful on the road home, he dared not Sky Flight nor openly walk, disguising as a mortal to become less visible, more transparent.

Meanwhile, Baidu Map remained open for a long time, all information within a radius of three hundred miles was displayed, preventing any ambushes or assassinations.

As a result of Baidu Map’s long-term opening, Lu Xuanji’s True Essence inside was consuming drastically.

After almost a hundred miles, he had to stop and rest for a while to replenish the lost Primordial Qi.

Sword Flight, would take only half a day to return home.

But this stop-and-go, continued for three days, finally returning near Changyuan Mountain.

With Baidu Map open, he checked the Lu Family situation, also, the situation within a thousand miles nearby, everything was safe and sound.

He breathed a long sigh of relief, entering the Lu Family.

"Husband, you’re back!"

Ye Wanyi said, "In recent days, the situation has been tense, with magical cultivators crossing over to battle with a senior. Chu Country has issued a warrant; it’s said there have been several battles, some demon cultivators have been caught and executed!"

"In recent days, the magical cultivators killed number in the hundreds, and some with good reputation and noble character have been found to be demon cultivators too."
