This scholar is a bit cruel

Chapter 282 Self-castration
The atmosphere was a little awkward.

Luo Zijun coughed and quickly slashed at a rock in front of him with his flying sword.

"Crack!"

The stone split in two.

Luo Zijun recalled her flying sword, turned around and said, "Fairy, I get along very well with Sword Sister, and it is very happy."

The Moon Palace Fairy ignored him, reached out and beckoned, and the flying sword immediately flew over and landed in her palm.

They look exceptionally well-behaved and obedient.

Upon seeing this, Luo Zijun felt a surge of envy and jealousy.

It was clearly his flying sword...

"when--"

The Moon Palace Fairy flicked the sword with her finger, and a surge of sword intent rippled outwards.

"If we get better materials in the future, this flying sword can be upgraded."

After the Moon Palace Fairy finished speaking, she returned the flying sword to him.

Upon hearing this, Luo Zijun was delighted and quickly asked, "What materials are needed?"

The Moon Palace Fairy turned and walked towards the tunnel. After entering the tunnel, she said calmly, "I will tell you later."

Holding the flying sword in her palm, Luo Zijun asked again, "Fairy, where should I put the flying sword? In my storage bag?"

The Moon Palace Fairy said, "For now, you can only put it in your storage bag. Once you have completely tamed it, you can put it anywhere on your body."

"Anywhere?"

Luo Zijun's eyes lit up, and she said, "In the mouth, nose, ears, sleeves, shoes, is that all possible?"

The Moon Palace Fairy said, "As long as she's willing, that's fine."

Luo Zijun then asked, "Fairy, how can this flying sword be made bigger or smaller?"

The Moon Palace Fairy seemed to recall his unreasonable words just now, snorted coldly, and said, "I don't know."

Luo Zijun had no choice but to apologize and try to appease him in every way possible.

After they emerged from the tunnel, the Moon Palace Fairy said, "Once you tame it, you will naturally understand. With a thought, it can change at will."

Luo Zijun asked, "Can it grow to the size of a three-foot-long sword?"

The Moon Palace Fairy glanced at him and said, "The key to using a flying sword lies in its concealment, catching the enemy off guard. Why are you getting so big?"

Before Luo Zijun could answer, she suddenly retorted sarcastically, "Just because it's bigger, does that make it more attractive?"

Luo Zijun: "..."

The Moon Palace Fairy ignored him and continued walking forward.

Luo Zijun explained, "I mainly think that larger things are more powerful and have a wider targeting range."

Before the Moon Palace Fairy could speak, he added, "However, that would sacrifice the flying sword's agility, speed, and stealth, which would indeed be a loss."

The two crossed the stone bridge and arrived at the exit.

Luo Zijun asked, "Fairy, may I continue practicing during the day?"

The Moon Palace Fairy said, "Yes."

"Shh!"

A beam of light appeared, and the two quickly returned to the ground.

Luo Zijun was about to ask about the techniques for controlling flying swords when the Moon Palace Fairy flashed into the night sky and disappeared.

At this moment, the distant horizon was beginning to turn white.

Luo Zijun felt no sleepiness at all. After returning to her room, she immediately realized that her body was depleted of qi and blood, which was obviously caused by the blood dripping from her soul.

The human soul is initially a very faint, indistinct image.

After cultivation, it gradually began to solidify.

Then, just like the physical body, it begins to grow meridians and acupoints, and even internal organs.

If one cultivates to a higher level, except that one is no longer a physical body, one is essentially no different from a physical body.

Of course, this physical entity is relative to the human body in the human world. In the underworld, it can be considered a physical entity, just like those little ghosts and demons, since it can be touched and truly exists.

Therefore, the soul also has its own body, essence, spirit, blood, bones, internal organs, etc., but it cannot be seen in the human world.

However, once one's divine soul is cultivated to the Yang God realm, one can ignore the rules of the two realms, manifest a true physical body anywhere, and infinitely reshape one's physical body, becoming immortal and indestructible.

"cut!"

Luo Zijun went to the backyard and continued practicing flying sword.

Of course, before that, he had to say a few nice words: "Sister Jian, I never imagined that you would be so beautiful and majestic when I looked at you with my soul, but now that I look at you with my physical body, you are even more charming..."

A few words of praise were enough to satisfy Fei Jian.

The sword moves freely with the sword, executing slashes, chops, thrusts, sweeps, and other actions in one fluid and seamless motion.

Soon, the sun rose on the horizon.

Luo Zijun sheathed her flying sword, returned to her room, and decided to rest for a few hours.

The depletion of his essence and blood left him somewhat exhausted.

He fell asleep shortly after lying in bed.

When I woke up, it was already afternoon.

After getting up and having a hearty meal, I told Xiao Huan and Zhi Yuan what I needed to do, and then went back to the backyard to continue practicing flying swords.

In an instant, the backyard was filled with the shadows of swords and the falling leaves.

It was the dead of night.

Luo Zijun's soul left his body and, together with the Moon Palace Fairy, continued underground, using the Yin energy there to cultivate his soul and practice flying swordsmanship.

Two days passed in this manner.

On the third day, Luo Zijun's control and wielding of the flying sword became even more masterful and effortless. The flying sword no longer seemed to repel him.

At midnight, he met the Moon Palace Fairy in the garden behind the palace and eagerly asked if he could mark the flying sword that night and completely control it.

The Moon Palace Fairy asked him to control the flying sword. After observing for a while, she did not answer immediately, but said, "Go down and try again."

Luo Zijun immediately followed her underground.

The two passed through the tunnel and arrived at a rocky outcrop where the wind howled.

The Moon Palace Fairy then asked him to try controlling the flying sword.

"rise!"

Luo Zijun gave a soft shout, and the flying sword immediately flew out from his sleeve and into the air.

"prick!"

The flying sword shot down and pierced through a rock on the ground.

"cut!"

A flash of cold light, and the rock split in two.

"Come!"

The flying sword suddenly disappeared from its original spot and instantly appeared in Luo Zijun's palm.

The Moon Palace Fairy nodded slightly: "That's fine."

Luo Zijun was overjoyed. She quickly took out a small knife, cut her finger, squeezed out a drop of blood, and carefully dripped it onto the pattern at the tail of the flying sword.

"Shh!"

The blood quickly disappeared, and the flame-like pattern suddenly lit up with a scarlet light.

The flying sword began to tremble and emit a buzzing sound.

But soon, things returned to calm.

At this moment, Luo Zijun's soul could clearly feel that her bloodline connection with the flying sword had deepened even further.

"call out--"

Without saying a word, he sent out a flying sword with a thought, instantly splitting a huge rock in front of him in two.

Both speed and power seem to have been greatly improved!
Luo Zijun exclaimed joyfully, "Fairy, I've succeeded! I feel like I have complete control over it now, as if it were my own body."

The Moon Palace Fairy looked at him and said, "This is all thanks to me."

Luo Zijun hurriedly replied, "Yes, it's all thanks to you, Fairy. Without you, I wouldn't even have a flying sword, let alone be able to control it like this."

The Moon Palace Fairy said calmly, "How will you repay me?"

Luo Zijun solemnly cupped her hands in greeting: "If the fairy has any requests, even if it means going through fire and water, I, Luo Zijun, will never hesitate."

"Really?"

The Moon Palace Fairy raised an eyebrow.

Luo Zijun's heart skipped a beat for no reason, and she immediately added, "As long as it doesn't violate morality, or involve murder or harm..."

"I command you to castrate yourself."

The Moon Palace Fairy suddenly spoke.

Luo Zijun was stunned: "Huh???"

The Moon Palace Fairy coldly said, "Your talent is excellent, but you can't control your lower body. I hope you can castrate yourself and become a eunuch, so that you can concentrate on cultivation and fight demons and monsters with me, upholding justice. For the greater good of the world, and to repay me, are you willing?"

Luo Zijun: "..."

"What, are those filthy desires more important than the greater good, or repaying kindness?"

The Moon Palace Fairy spoke with a sarcastic tone.

Luo Zijun explained, “You may not know, my physical cultivation method is extremely yang, with abundant qi and blood. If I were to castrate myself and become a eunuch, I would be unable to improve and would never progress further. Moreover, heaven and earth are separate, and men and women are distinct. Yin and Yang complement each other. I am a man, and this is the will of heaven. How can I forcibly change it? The physical body is yang, and the soul is yin. Only when yin and yang are in harmony can we conform to the will of heaven and make further progress.”

"sophistry!"

The Moon Palace Fairy snorted coldly.

Luo Zijun said, "Fairy, this is how I achieved what I have today. If I were forced to become a eunuch, I would speak to you with delicate fingers, sway my hips while fighting alongside you, squat down to urinate, and even wear rouge and bright red and green. Wouldn't you be disgusted by that? Wouldn't our enemies laugh at us?"

After listening to him, the Moon Palace Fairy stared at him for a while and said, "I'm actually looking forward to what you've said."

Luo Zijun: "..."

"Let's go hunting first."

The Moon Palace Fairy said something and prepared to leave, but she suddenly stopped, turned to look at him and said, "Who said that a woman must raise her pinky finger when she talks to someone? And who said that a woman should twist her waist and sway her hips when she fights? Also, don't you usually squat when you pee?"

Luo Zijun looked at her strangely: "Fairy, I usually pee standing up. Men pee standing up. Don't you even know that?"

The Moon Palace Fairy paused slightly, glanced silently at his lower body, said nothing more, and turned to leave quickly.

"You don't know this? Or are you just pretending to be naive?"

Luo Zijun was speechless, silently complaining to herself.

"Shh!"

The flying sword returned to his sleeve.

He wasted no more time and headed back towards the swamp from that night.

That night, he was almost torn apart by two demonic crocodiles. It took him three days to recover. Now that he has a flying sword, his strength has greatly increased, so he naturally wants to take revenge!
I hope those two crocodiles from that night are still around.

The fairy said that hundreds of demonic crocodiles were hiding in that swamp. If he could kill them all, he might be able to break through to the Nascent Soul Realm immediately.

This is a good opportunity to hone my flying sword skills through real combat.

Keeping their eyes and ears open as they went, they encountered no other monsters or evil spirits, and soon arrived at the swamp shrouded in black mist.

At this moment, his senses became even more acute.
