Slender willows sway in the breeze

Why doesn't Chapter 49 continue?

After he finished speaking, strange runes and eerie dark green flames suddenly filled his body, reflecting his indistinct figure.

Gu Changzhou looked up and said, "Today, I will experience firsthand the supreme power of ghost cultivators."

Let's see who the real ghost is.

Gu Changzhou released his spiritual energy and instantly rose into the air to confront the ghost cultivator.

Yan Fu felt the surging spiritual power emanating from this person and was shaken, but he did not back down. Instead, his face became even more distorted: "Don't think that you can be above me just because you have the power of a Dao Lord."

Gu Changzhou remained silent, then moved swiftly and attacked, his sword flashing like lightning as it pierced straight into the ghost cultivator's chest.

Yan Fu chuckled coldly, his figure transforming into a black shadow as he dodged the fatal blow. Immediately afterward, wielding the Ghost Moon Blade, he unleashed the "Illusory Soul Severing" technique, unleashing a burst of black blade light that hurtled towards Gu Changzhou's chest with the force of thunder.

Liu Sijun watched the fight above, holding her breath.

Gu Changzhou formed a hand seal with his left hand and flicked his right, unleashing a burst of sword light that firmly suppressed the black blade light. Then, another figure appeared with lightning speed behind the ghost cultivator, striking with both hands.

Yan Fu's pupils dilated violently as he realized that this person had summoned a primordial spirit right under his nose. The primordial spirit was so realistic that he couldn't tell the difference.

Yan Fu tried to struggle, but found that the ghostly power in his body was rapidly dissipating.

That palm strike had shattered his inner energy.

"You are practicing the path of ghosts while in human form, recklessly entering the evil path, harming both yourself and others."

Black blood kept gushing from Yan Fu's mouth as he let out a hoarse laugh: "You won, so of course you'll say that."

If he wins and completes the ritual before the other cultivators discover it, his ghostly power will increase dozens of times. At that time, even if a True Venerable comes, he will not take him seriously.

"The winner is the king and the loser is the bandit."

The ghost cultivator's body vanished into the sky, the altar exploded, the dark clouds in the sky quickly dispersed, and under the sunlight, it was as if everything before had been an illusion.

"Thanks to you this time."

Are you thanking me on your own behalf?

"On behalf of relatives and children who are undergoing training here."

If this ghost cultivator succeeds, not only the Frozen Domain, but also Laiyang County, which is closest to it, will be the first to suffer.

Gu Changzhou sheathed his sword and looked at her: "In that case, there's no need to thank me."

Liu Sijun felt somewhat uncomfortable being stared at.

"Well, it's getting late!"

"indeed."

"Then we'll meet again someday."

Liu Sijun turned to face north, preparing to leave.

"The Frozen Domain is fraught with danger. Anyone else would have followed me closely, but you look at me like I'm a venomous snake." Gu Changzhou blocked her path, leaned forward, and looked at her. "Afraid of me?"

Why should I be afraid of you?

He leaned closer again: "Then you'll have to ask yourself."

His breath filled her nostrils, making Liu Sijun's ears burn. She felt a surge of annoyance and pushed him away with both hands.

"Speak up, but don't get so close."

Liu Sijun adjusted her breathing and looked at Gu Changzhou: "You're right, this place is full of dangers, it's always safer for two people to travel together."

She's figured it out.

The more shy you are, the more he will take advantage of you.

Instead of doing what we did last time, we should pretend to be indifferent and leave him with no way to make a move.

The two traveled together, heading north.

After walking for a while, it gradually got dark, and just then, there was a very suitable cave not far ahead.

After setting up the barrier, Liu Sijun took out a lot of things from the container, preparing to start a fire and cook.

Perhaps because she possesses memories from before her transmigration, even though she has already formed her core, she can go ten or fifteen days without eating or drinking without any problems, yet she still cannot control her appetite.

Even just a few bites are enough to make me happy.

It's not a complicated meal, just a hot pancake and a bowl of soup.

Gu Changzhou stretched out his long legs, and Liu Sijun, hearing the noise, waved the pancake in his hand: "Want some?"

"Soup too."

"You have no shame."

"Today is my birthday." Liu Sijun paused in scooping soup, looked at Gu Changzhou, poured the soup back into the pot, took out noodles and eggs from the container, and took out a frying pan to pour oil.

"What are you doing?"

"Isn't it customary to eat longevity noodles on one's birthday? We don't have freshly made noodles, but we can make a bowl of egg noodles."

The soup was already prepared, made with dried mushrooms. The noodles cooked in no time. Salt had been added beforehand, so it was served directly. A fried egg was placed on top, and a handful of dried scallions were sprinkled on top. It looked quite appetizing.

"Give."

Gu Changzhou sat down next to Liu Sijun.

He took the soup bowl but didn't eat it immediately.

Liu Sijun served herself a large bite, then noticed that Gu Changzhou was still watching.

"Look at the scallions in the bowl! Eat them quickly, or they'll clump together!"

It's just a bowl of noodles, why are they so moved? The two of them ate quite politely, but their eating speed was not slow at all.

"good to eat."

Gu Changzhou drank not a single drop of soup.

Liu Sijun gave a strange twitch of her lips. She knew her own limitations; her cooking wasn't overly salty or tasteless, but to say it was delicious would be a lie.

Gu Changzhou knew that Liu Sijun wouldn't believe it.

The taste was indeed mediocre. Little did she know that this was the first time in his twenty-six years that he had eaten longevity noodles.

Although it is still a simplified version.

After finishing the meal, Liu Sijun prepared to wash the bowls and chopsticks with water, but he simply made a hand seal, not only washing them clean but also categorizing and putting them away neatly.

"You can put it in now."

Fine.

She cooks, he cleans up; he's at least aware of his own limitations.

If we travel together, when we cook later, we'll bring him a portion too.

The thought had barely crossed my mind when I heard him say, "You clearly wanted to that night, so why didn't you continue?"

"Cough cough~"

There is no beginning or end.

Liu Sijun understood.

He really dares to speak his mind.

"My lord, we've only known each other for a bowl of noodles. How are you any different from a lecherous man when you say these things?"

"So even you, Third Miss, knew this behavior was inappropriate. I was merely saying something, but you..."

"stop."

Liu Sijun interrupted in time, fearing that he might say something shocking.

“My lord, didn’t we agree to put this matter behind us?”

Gu Changzhou sat down on the ground, stretched out his long legs, and smiled seductively: "What goes around comes around."

"My lord, if you say that, how are you any different from a rogue?"

"Oh?"

Gu Changzhou lazily dragged out his words: "What would a scoundrel do in a situation like this?"

Liu Sijun swallowed hard, unable to resist.

Two years ago, Gu Changzhou didn't have this face, but now his appearance is no less impressive than it was then, and perhaps even better.

She was so captivated by that face back then that she almost made a move on him.

Now that Gu Changzhou is deliberately seducing her, if she weren't still rational, she would really want to play hard to get, pounce on him, and take advantage of him.

No no no.

The little devil in Liu Sijun's head accused her of being audacious.

This is not a handsome man who fell from the sky, but the Marquis Molin, who strikes fear into the hearts of enemy nations.

Once someone is truly asleep, they can't be easily dismissed.
