Autumn Moon County Capital, Lu Manor.
Chen Yunxi held a short sword in one hand as she spun around in her courtyard, performing the Chasing Sun Sword Technique she had just learned.
"The Chasing Sun Sword Technique, based on its moves alone, should aim to continuously kill the opponent, and finally pierce through the heart with one strike. This powerful sword technique was created for this purpose, but because of my footwork, I can't achieve the goal of continuous pursuit no matter what …"
After practicing for a while, Chen Yunxi stopped and sheathed her sword with a swoosh. She stood still and frowned, not knowing how to continue.
"Knock, knock, knock."
Knocks came from the door. "Miss Yunxi, the clan leader is back. He invites you to the Vast Ocean Pavilion," Xin Mei, her maid who served her, said loudly and carefully.
Chen Yunxi raised an eyebrow and put down the short sword in her room. She freshened up a little, let her long hair down, and changed into a light yellow dress. Then, she walked out and opened the door.
Xin Mei lowered her head in fear, not daring to look at her.
"Miss Yunxi …"
"Lead the way. Maybe it's time for a showdown," Chen Yunxi said lightly.
She remembered that she used to love Lu Sheng very much. It was as if she couldn't live without him.
But then, they were separated for too long. Maybe it was time, or maybe it was the limit of feelings, but this love slowly faded. Now, she only saw it as a mission, a responsibility.
Maybe there was still love, but it was very, very faint.
Xin Mei raised her head and looked at Chen Yunxi. She felt that Miss Yunxi now looked at everything calmly and indifferently, as if she didn't care about anything.
She led the way, leading Chen Yunxi all the way to the Vast Ocean Pavilion.
Along the way, maids and other servants of the Lu Manor passed by. When they saw Chen Yunxi, they all lowered their heads and bent their knees respectfully, bowing to her.
After all, she was the second wife of the Lu Manor's clan leader. Although she wasn't the main wife, her status was enough to speak to the clan leader. No one dared to offend her.
Chen Yunxi didn't mind. She didn't stop and passed through several gardens, several stone bridges and ponds. Finally, she arrived at a collection pavilion with a three-pointed roof.
The Vast Ocean Pavilion was a place the Lu Manor used to store all sorts of rare items. It was heavily guarded, and aside from Lu Sheng and a few higher-ups of the Lu Manor, no one else was allowed to enter.
Chen Yunxi was not qualified to do so.
As soon as she entered the door, she saw Lu Sheng sitting on the right side of the first floor, slowly sipping his tea. Apart from him, there was no one else.
"Long time no see." Lu Sheng was dressed in a moon-white robe with a black belt. His well-proportioned and well-built body was perfectly highlighted by the tight robe on his upper body. His long black hair draped over his shoulders, and there was a hint of killing intent between his brows. It wasn't intentional, but it was more like he had always been like that.
Looking at it from afar, just its appearance alone revealed a trace of natural fierceness.
Chen Yunxi was agitated by the aura, and felt a little flustered. Her heart that had been calm for a long time was now at a loss.
She could feel Lu Sheng's gaze slowly roaming over her body. She was like a deer on the plains being pinned down by a lion, unable to move.
So much so that she couldn't even breathe properly after entering the door.
Lu Sheng sighed. He had tried his best to suppress his aura, but because he had devoured too many Divine Weapons, the strange killing intent on him was getting thicker and thicker. Even with his Yin Extreme Mode, he couldn't completely suppress it.
And Chen Yunxi was just an ordinary person. At most, she was a Jianghu expert who had trained in external martial arts. The two of them were almost like two different species. To be able to do this was already very impressive.
He thought back to the few months he spent traveling with Divine Lord Tong Yi, under the cover of Divine Lord Tong Yi's comfort. Their powerful aura was actually like that of ordinary people, not leaking out at all. No one could tell that the two of them were not ordinary people at all. They just thought that they were a grandfather and a grandson.
'Compared to Senior Tong Yi, I still have a long way to go …' Lu Sheng sighed in his heart. The path from Jade Star to Divine Intellect required a long time of accumulation. The shortest Divine Lord would only need a few decades, and the longest would not be able to pass even after a thousand years. Many Divine Lords would be stuck at this level for the rest of their lives, unable to advance further.
Lu Sheng did not think that he could break through and reach Divine Intellect in just a few years. That was not realistic. From the information he received from Tong Yi, if he wanted to enter the Divine Intellect Tier, he would need to have complete mastery over his own Core Law, which was Death Flame, from the inside out. He would need to master all of its changes and patterns.
These were not things that could be understood in a short period of time. He needed to experiment in different environments and under different influences. Only by experimenting would he be able to grasp and understand.
For him to reach such a level in one go, it was already unprecedented, and there would be no one who could surpass him in the future.
When he came back to his senses, Lu Sheng focused his gaze on Chen Yunxi.
"How long has it been since we've had such a quiet and relaxed chat?" He looked at the woman whom he had held back, and felt only pity.
Although Chen Yunxi had pursued him, she had given the best years of her life to the Lu Family and to him. She had even been a widow for so long because of this.
Fortunately, he finally had a way to solve this problem.
Chen Yunxi was silent for a while.
"I don't remember. What do you want to say to me by calling me here?"
Lu Sheng was silent for a while as well, and then sighed softly. "Since we got married, we haven't done it yet, right?"
Chen Yunxi was stunned. "Do it?!"
From King Shadow, she had a rough idea of the gap between her and Lu Sheng. It could be said to be heaven and earth. If Lu Sheng really shared a bed with her, and Lu Sheng unconsciously exhaled after they fell asleep, she might be blown to death …
Such two people, even if they had feelings for each other, how could they truly be husband and wife?
"I …" Could it be that Lu Sheng could already solve this problem? Chen Yunxi's mind went blank for a moment, and all kinds of messy emotions surged up.
Her heart was in a mess. Living with the person she loved was what she had always wanted. But now that this goal was suddenly placed in front of her, she suddenly felt a little afraid.
"Actually, whether you still love me or not, I can't let you go. I think you have to understand this. " Lu Sheng continued, "With your physique, even with inner Qi and the radiation of the Divine Weapon, you can only live for two hundred years at most … and I have thousands of years to live."
"I …" Chen Yunxi opened her mouth again, but she still didn't know what to say.
She lowered her head, closed her eyes, and slowly opened them again. She stared at her slender and perfect legs, which were slightly exposed under her skirt.
The dazzlingly white skin on her calves looked even more firm and lustrous after regular training, like fine white jade.
Chen Yunxi gradually calmed her emotions.
"I don't feel that you still love me. Just like you said, even if we divorce, the Lu Manor won't let me go. But so what? Just pretend that I don't exist. There are countless beautiful women in the Autumn Moon County, or even the entire Moling Prefecture, who want to sleep with you. Why do you care about an ordinary mortal woman like me? "
"You still don't understand?" Lu Sheng stood up. "I owe you this. You should have had your own beautiful life, but I held you back, so I want to make it up to you."
"I don't need any compensation. You've given me enough wealth. I don't want more than that. I just want to continue living in peace. It doesn't matter if you divorce me or not. I don't want anything right now, I just want to live in peace. "Chen Yunxi shook her head and looked up at the approaching Lu Sheng. Her eyes were as calm as water.
She paused, and gently brushed aside a strand of hair by her chin.
"In the Lu Manor, by your side, I've seen many wonderful worlds, many places that I couldn't have come into contact with in the past. I really like this kind of life.
And in the Northern Lands, in the Great Song, if not for you and the Lu Family, my father and the others would have been dragged into the Devil Disaster, and my family would have been ruined.
These are all things I should thank you for.
Also, even if you divorce me, it's unlikely that anyone will come and mess with me. At least, no one in the world I've come into contact with would dare.
Even if I'm one level higher, one level higher, one level higher, one level higher, no one would dare. So don't worry, even if we divorce, I won't find another … Ah!!! What are you doing!!? "
"Whoosh!"
Lu Sheng had long since grown impatient. He grabbed Chen Yunxi and slung her over his shoulder.
"You talk too much. Give me a child first!"
"Let me go! Ah!! Let me go!! "
In a moment of carelessness, Chen Yunxi was lifted off the ground before she could finish her sentence. By the time she reacted, she was punching and kicking Lu Sheng in a frenzy. However, she was too weak to resist at all. Amidst all sorts of screams, he carried her into the bedroom.
"Rip."
Her dress was instantly torn apart. Chen Yunxi was only wearing her underwear. She turned around and tried to escape through the door. However, Lu Sheng grabbed her leg and dragged her onto the large bed. With a gust of wind, the door to the inner chamber slammed shut.
Soon, a pained grunt came from the room, followed by a long moan …
…
After the deed, Lu Sheng held Chen Yunxi's fair buttocks with one hand, hugged her to his right chest, and stood up.
When he was enjoying himself, he transformed slightly, and his body expanded to nearly three meters tall. Although he didn't completely return to his original form, he was at least in a half-recovered state.
Using the Heavenly Demon Flower Scripture, Lu Sheng also felt something he had never felt before. After this, he might really be able to make Chen Yunxi pregnant with his child.
The oil lamp embedded in the wall of the bedroom swayed, illuminating the strange state of the two.
Nearly three meters tall, Lu Sheng was like an extremely strong beast. His muscles were like steel, and his shoulder-length hair was only loose after he grew taller, making him look a little wild. However, returning to his original form caused some key areas, such as his knees, shoulders, and chest, to have faint protective scales, making him look ferocious.
Chen Yunxi, who was only about 1.7 meters tall, was like a delicate porcelain in Lu Sheng's hands. Her whole body was drenched in sweat, and her eyes were rolled back. She leaned against Lu Sheng without any strength. Obviously, she had reached her limit and couldn't continue.
Under the dim light, her snow-white body and Lu Sheng's dark and strong body formed a strange balance of beauty.
