One person established a clan

Chapter 221 A Gentle Beginning
As night fell, the palace was lit up with lanterns, and the candlelight flickered red.

Lu Hongxi sat cross-legged on the brocade couch, breathing in the air with the fragrance of orchids.

Once the surging internal energy had finally calmed down, she slowly opened her eyes and stared intently at her own pale hands.

"Heavenly Sword Demon Heart"

Although she was already aware of her strange constitution, she was still shaken by the backlash of sword intent she experienced today.

That violent impulse to destroy everything in the world still sends shivers down my spine when I think about it.

"but."

She suddenly tightened her grip, a cold glint flashing in her blood-red eyes.

No matter how turbulent the sword intent and murderous aura may be, it ultimately originates from oneself. With dedicated practice, it can be completely tamed in time.

However, during this period, we must not let things get out of control like they have today, lest we cause our junior brother worry.
Lu Hongxi stepped off the bed with light, graceful steps, wrapped the silk binding around her chest, and then put on her loose dress.

“Junior brother is going to the Star Origin Land this time. If I go with you, I can lend you a hand.”

She picked up the ink-black sword from beside her pillow, a gentle smile unconsciously curving her lips.

In this way, I can fight alongside my junior brother.
"Hmm?" Lu Hongxi's eyes flickered slightly as she caught sight of the puppet sitting quietly to the side.

"This Miss Shi Xuan's body seems to be somewhat different from before."

She seemed to be deep in thought. "It seems that not only has my junior brother's cultivation improved, but Miss Shi Xuan has also made a breakthrough."

Just then, Su Cheng helped Feng Sha push open the door and enter.

"Sister?"

When their eyes met, he smiled and said, "Your complexion has recovered quite well?"

"We have to thank my junior brother for his miraculous medicine."

Lu Hongxi's eyes softened slightly, and her gaze quietly fell on the two of them: "Why have you both changed your clothes?"

"It's nothing." Feng Sha blushed and brushed her robes off. "Just now, when you were helping me regulate my internal energy, my clothes got a little dirty."

Su Cheng gave her a meaningful look.

Feng Sha turned her face away shyly, her slender fingers lightly covering her lips.

The scandalous affair that occurred in the neighboring palace was too shameful to recount.
"It seems quite a lot has happened." Lü Hongxi narrowed her bloodshot eyes and smiled knowingly.

"Ahem, dinner is ready, please begin your meal."

Feng Sha blushed and changed the subject, gesturing for the maids to bring out the steaming hot delicacies one by one.

Su Cheng chuckled and helped her sit down.

"You guys are having quite a bit of fun."

Shi Xuan's voice transmission faintly sounded: "So many tricks, how vulgar."

Su Cheng raised an eyebrow: "Didn't Xuan'er try it a few times as well?"

"I...I didn't push you around with my chest."

Shi Xuan scolded in a low voice, "Shameless!"

Just as they were chatting and laughing, a delicious dish, with its perfect color and aroma, was suddenly placed to their lips.

"Junior brother, open your mouth~"

Lu Hongxi picked up some meat with her chopsticks, her delicate hand gently supporting her cheek, her charming face filled with a tender smile.

Su Cheng opened his mouth and took a bite: "Senior Sister's injuries have just healed, so there's no need to trouble you."

"This little thing won't tire you out," Lü Hongxi said with a smile as she served him food and soup.

Feng Sha, watching from the side, secretly bit the tip of her chopsticks and quietly tugged at Su Cheng's sleeve.

"Son."

"Hmm?" Su Cheng was raising his cup to drink soup when he heard this and turned his head.

But just as he was about to speak, Feng Sha leaned close beside him and gently kissed his lips.

"."

She quickly tidied her hair and retreated, blushing as she asked softly, "Does this dish suit your taste, young master?"

Su Cheng chuckled: "Where did you learn that from?"

Feng Sha's ears instantly turned bright red, and she lowered her eyes shyly, saying, "I...I figured it out myself."

Click!

A crisp cracking sound suddenly rang out, drawing the attention of the two men.

Lu Hongxi calmly put down the broken chopsticks and took out a new pair. "It was a slip of the hand."

Su Cheng chuckled to himself and then put some food in her bowl as well.

"With our departure imminent, Senior Sister, please try these imperial delicacies as well."

"Hmm~" Lu Hongxi immediately revealed a charming smile, making her exceptionally easy to coax.

The ambiguous scene between the three of them made Shi Xuan sigh and rub his forehead in exasperation. "They can even exchange glances while eating a meal, really."

After a while, once the remaining food was cleared away, everyone was ready to set off.

A flash of purple lightning appeared in the courtyard. Su Cheng was the first to step onto his flying sword, took the puppet's soft hand in one hand, and gently embraced Lü Hongxi.

"Young Master Su, have a safe journey."

Feng Shahou stood to the side, gathering her long hair that was being blown about by the night breeze, a gentle smile on her face: "Come back soon once everything is settled~"

Su Cheng nodded to her and promised, "Don't worry, I will come back as soon as possible to fulfill my promise and get married."

"woo"

Feng Sha blushed slightly upon hearing this, stammered twice, and finally nodded gently in agreement. "This concubine will await you, young master."

Amidst flashes of purple lightning, the sword light soared into the sky, transforming into a shooting star that streaked across the night sky before disappearing into the horizon of the sea of ​​clouds.

"."

Feng Sha gazed into the distance for a long time before slowly cupping her burning cheeks.

"I'm so bold."

She bit her lower lip lightly, her mind filled with those enchanting scenes in the palace, and her heart began to beat faster involuntarily.

Thinking of Su Cheng's tender and passionate gaze back then, Feng Sha unconsciously brought her legs together and blushed as she looked at her chest.

"Young master really likes this."

She murmured softly, her eyes filled with shyness. "Back then, I couldn't take my eyes off her."

She felt nothing when she held it herself, but the moment Young Master Su touched it, the heat flared up like wildfire, making her feel weak all over.
"--His Majesty."

A maidservant quietly approached and whispered, "Several more secret letters have arrived; the matter is urgent."

Feng Sha's expression hardened, and the blush on her face faded like a tide, instantly returning to her elegant and noble demeanor.

"Take them all to the study, and I will personally review them."

With a gentle flick of her wide sleeves, she walked calmly toward the study.

The maidservant followed silently behind, watching her mistress's back and couldn't help but sigh inwardly.

Although he has not officially ascended the throne, the master's every move exudes imperial majesty, and a single glance can silence the court officials.

only.
Only in front of that young master Su did she become incredibly delicate and vulnerable.

The maid couldn't help but smile, then quickly composed herself and hurried after him.

The sword shadows pierced the air and swept across several miles in no time.

Su Cheng loosened his arms around her waist: "Senior Sister, can this be considered our second time traveling together?"

A ripple appeared in Lü Hongxi's eyes: "My experience in the Heavenly Jade Realm is still vivid in my mind."

She tucked a stray red hair behind her ear and smiled gently, "But it makes me even happier to be able to travel with my junior brother again this time."

"Don't let your guard down." Su Cheng smiled. "The Star Origin Land is fraught with danger and cannot afford to be complacent in the slightest."

Just as Lü Hongxi was about to respond, she suddenly frowned and exhaled a wisp of sinister aura.

"Ok?"

Su Cheng suddenly sensed something was wrong and quickly looked at her face.

Lu Hongxi's expression was cold and stern, her scarlet eyes filled with an unyielding frost.

"Senior sister, what's wrong with you?"

Once their eyes met, she coldly said, "Since this place is so dangerous, take advantage of the journey to cultivate properly and don't waste the opportunity."

Su Cheng looked slightly taken aback.

Although her tone was somewhat cold and sharp, it seemed that Senior Sister Lü was controlling her sword intent and killing aura perfectly at the moment.
"hold my hand."

Before Su Cheng could make a move, Lü Hongxi had already taken his wrist and intertwined their fingers.

She immediately formed a mudra with her fingers, and a faint light flashed between her brows.

"—Heavenly Sword Enters the Divine Realm."

In an instant, their minds merged and settled, and the surrounding scenery changed as if heaven and earth had suddenly transformed.

When Su Cheng opened his eyes again, he found himself in a vast sword tomb where reality and illusion were indistinguishable.

Ten thousand swords stood tall, their cold light chilling, and their sword energy surged in the void like a tide.

This place, Yunhai Shuijing, looks like a martial arts training room at first glance. But upon closer inspection, it's different; it's much simpler.
"The flying sword is guided by that Miss Shi Xuan, so we can cultivate here undisturbed."

Lu Hongxi's figure slowly emerged from the forest of swords.

Her red hair was like flames, and her graceful figure trembled with each step beneath her clothes. The sword intent emanating from her body caused thousands of swords around her to vibrate and emit a clear, melodious hum.

She casually drew a green sword, its tip flicking lightly, drawing a cold arc of light in the air.

"After you defeat me, you can rest."
