Immortality and cultivation begin with full comprehension.

Chapter 228 The Eve of Departure
"Yeah! I believe you!"

Finally hearing the words she had longed to hear, Lü Ruoxi nestled tightly in Li Yunjing's arms, feeling that at this moment, she was the happiest woman.

Li Yunjing was a perfect person in Lu Ruoxi's eyes, whether in terms of appearance, qualifications, character, or attitude towards friends.

Of course, the only downside is that beautiful women are always appearing around Li Yunjing, vying to become his women.

This troubled Lü Ruoxi somewhat, but it was normal for someone as outstanding as Li Yunjing to be targeted.

Lü Ruoxi has to get used to this.

Just like herself, she is always surrounded by a group of sycophants.

"This time, being with Li Yunjing, I can't afford to pay attention to those sycophants. Otherwise, if I anger Li Yunjing, my standing in his eyes will probably plummet."

With this in mind, Lü Ruoxi made a decision and made some trade-offs.

It seems the resources contributed by those sycophants are about to be cut off.

I'll have to find another way to make money in the future!
As Lü Ruoxi leaned against Li Yunjing's chest, enjoying the warmth, she pondered the future.

"Why don't you come and stay at my place these days?"

The two snuggled together for a while, and Lü Ruoxi leaned against Li Yunjing's chest and whispered.

"Okay! I haven't been to your dojo yet."

Li Yunjing's heart stirred. He had originally wanted to stay at home and have some peace and quiet before setting off, but since Lü Ruoxi had invited him, he had no reason to refuse.

I'll spend these few days with Lü Ruoxi.

They've been so good to me, even giving me a spirit charm. What more can I say?

We must ensure that Lü Ruoxi is fully satisfied, both physically and mentally.

"Okay! Let's go! Let's go home now!"

Seeing that Li Yunjing had agreed, Lü Ruoxi was overjoyed and pulled Li Yunjing away.

"All right!"

Li Yunjing nodded, but after glancing at the table full of delicacies and fine wine, he sighed, thinking that all of this was a waste.

I went downstairs and paid the bill.

Li Yunjing spoke with the middle-aged scholar for a while before leading Lü Ruoxi toward the door.

"Li Yunjing is such a lucky guy!"

Seeing that Li Yunjing was always accompanied by beautiful women, the middle-aged scholars couldn't help but show their envy.

After leaving "Donghua Tower", Li Yunjing and Lü Ruoxi did not linger in "Donghua Market". The two went directly to "Jade Maiden Peak" through the teleportation array.

"Jade Maiden Peak" is the location of Lü Ruoxi's Taoist temple.

Her teacher was a prominent figure from the "Jade Maiden Peak" lineage, a true invincible Golden Core Realm expert, and a being who had the potential to advance to the Nascent Soul Realm in the future.

The reason why Lü Ruoxi dared to tease and toy with these male disciples with powerful backgrounds and wealth throughout the sect was largely because she had a strong backer.

Otherwise, with the strength of the Lü family, they simply couldn't protect someone like Lü Ruoxi who caused trouble everywhere.

They had already been attacked at their doorstep or reported to the "law enforcement hall."

Because of Lü Ruoxi's teacher status, no matter how angry the young masters who had suffered losses were, their elders dared not break ties with Lü Ruoxi.

The other party was simply too powerful.

The relationship has truly broken down. Ms. Lü Ruoxi, that extremely petty and fiercely protective woman, will absolutely not let this go.

Li Yunjing had never met Lü Ruoxi's teacher, but later he suffered quite a bit at her hands. Lü Ruoxi's teacher's habit of having three wives and four concubines was something that this important person found very distasteful.

On Jade Maiden Peak, spring is in full bloom, teeming with life.

Unlike other mountains, it has four distinct seasons, with a completely different winter landscape.

There was an array here, which made all four seasons seem like spring and summer. Looking at the scenery on the mountain, Li Yunjing's mood improved a lot.

Along the way on "Jade Maiden Peak", Li Yunjing also saw some male disciples, so it wasn't all female disciples.

However, the "Jade Maiden Peak" lineage is dominated by female disciples, and those in high positions of power are almost all female disciples; there are no male cultivators at the Golden Core stage.

On "Jade Maiden Peak", they often encountered acquaintances of Lü Ruoxi. Lü Ruoxi was poised and generous, simply holding Li Yunjing's arm, leaning on him, greeting the acquaintances, not caring at all about the gazes of others.

"Ruoxi is indeed a person who dares to love and hate!"

Seeing that Lü Ruoxi didn't seem to mind, Li Yunjing smiled, straightened his back, and, with Lü Ruoxi's introduction, chatted freely with her acquaintances for a few minutes.

Fifteen minutes later, we reached the summit, where the scenery resembled a fairy palace in the clouds.

Lü Ruoxi's dojo is in a good location, in a separate courtyard to the east of the Cloud Sea Immortal Palace.

The environment here is no worse than the dojos of Li Yunjing, Yu Yunyi, and Fu Chao; it is definitely a first-class place.

"Would you like to see my bedroom?"

Lu Ruoxi looked at Li Yunjing with alluring eyes and a warm, soft voice.

"Ok!"

Li Yunjing's heart stirred, and he began to scrutinize the beauty before him with unbridled care.

Her arched eyebrows, rosy cheeks, angelic face, snow-white neck, high breasts, soft and boneless waist, and delicate figure were all exquisite.

Her long, flowing black hair and slender, beautiful legs.

He was perfect from head to toe.

Seeing Li Yunjing staring intently, Lü Ruoxi felt a little smug. She bent down slightly, revealing a patch of snow-white skin.

A pair of delicate hands slowly took off the purple boots.

Those jade-like feet were not wearing stockings.

Lu Ruoxi's jade-like feet were as white as snow, delicate and petite, warm and smooth as jade, slender and tender, radiating a soft luster.

Especially her slender toes, crystal clear, slightly curled, with five bright red nails, neatly trimmed and radiant.

Such a pair of beautiful feet, breathtaking and thought-provoking. Li Yunjing lowered his head to look at them carefully, and couldn't help but want to pick them up and play with them.

"What are you waiting for? My boudoir is on the second floor over there."

Lu Ruoxi has an oval face, skin as smooth as jade, bright eyes and white teeth, and a slightly husky voice, which is very sexy.

Especially the undisguised desire in her eyes finally made Li Yunjing lose control.

"You little vixen! You're going to kill me!"

Li Yunjing couldn't resist any longer. He pulled Lü Ruoxi close and began to savor her luscious red lips.

Their eyes met. Li Yunjing gazed into Lü Ruoxi's captivating eyes, her alluring eyelashes trembling slightly. Finally, he swept Lü Ruoxi up in his arms and strode towards the second floor!

Let's not talk about how Li Yunjing and Lü Ruoxi were enjoying themselves at "Jade Maiden Peak".

Three days later, the "Mission Hall" issued a frontline mission for those who volunteered.

The conscription targets are all Foundation Establishment cultivators, and the required number is thirty-three.

This mission, which was carried out simultaneously with the army's expedition, immediately attracted the attention of many Foundation Establishment cultivators.

It seems that quite a few Foundation Establishment cultivators have been drawn from this major battle.

In reality, it wasn't a big deal for the "Shenxiao Dao Sect," as many more people were not included in the transfer scope.

Some people fear war, while others yearn for it. Those who are struggling to find a way to get to the front lines are getting excited, and soon some people volunteer to join.

These monks were not worried about encountering danger.

Some of those who signed up had even traveled to and from the front lines several times.

Within the "Shenxiao Dao Sect," in addition to joining the Dao Protection Army to enter the border, Foundation Establishment cultivators also frequently enter the border through missions to fight against other forces and undergo trials.

These cultivators showed no fear of this mission; on the contrary, they planned to seize the opportunity to make a fortune and acquire a large amount of resources.

When the disciples of the "Shenxiao Dao Sect" go crazy, they are no less capable than rogue cultivators. When it comes to risking their lives, they are more daring than anyone else.

The number of applicants over the three days reached several hundred, and even the "Mission Hall" had to select the candidates to finalize the list.

On the fourth day, Li Yunjing's identity token began to vibrate.

He reluctantly ended his great battle with Lü Ruoxi!

This great battle lasted for three and a half days.

They each had their own victories and defeats.

Li Yunjing had no idea that Lü Ruoxi was also proficient in seduction techniques and dual cultivation.

The two studied each other's profound knowledge and verified each other's understanding.

These four days were very beneficial for Li Yunjing, and he gained a lot from them.

Of course, Lü Ruoxi also benefited greatly from Li Yunjing.

The authentic Yin-Yang dual cultivation technique of the Xuanmen school does not harm others for personal gain, but rather complements each other, benefiting everyone.

Li Yunjing felt that if he cultivated with Lü Ruoxi every day, he could break through to the second level of the Foundation Establishment Realm in a month or two.

"Sigh! We received the mission after only four days."

Li Yunjing stretched, got up, and started getting dressed.

"Are we leaving already?"

A hint of reluctance showed on Lü Ruoxi's flushed cheeks.

However, she still stood up and, without hiding her beautiful figure, helped Li Yunjing change his clothes.

This is an order from the sect, and neither Lü Ruoxi nor Li Yunjing can refuse it!
Although she knew this, Lü Ruoxi was still extremely reluctant to part ways.

Especially with the impending great battle and the complex situation, even Foundation Establishment cultivators have little guarantee of safety, so Lü Ruoxi was very worried about Li Yunjing's safety.

"There's no other way. My superior, Steward Xu Wuyi, sent me a message. Besides, the sect's orders must be carried out!"

Looking at Lü Ruoxi, who resembled a submissive wife, Li Yunjing's eyes flashed with tenderness. He gently stroked her beautiful hair and smiled.

Instead of directly participating in the main battle, he followed the orders of Palace Master Qin to take down a mine of the enemy forces in the form of a small team. In Li Yunjing's view, this task had a very high chance of success.

Since this trial wasn't a life-or-death situation, Li Yunjing wasn't too worried about his safety and continued to chat and laugh, appearing relaxed.

As for the expression on his face, only Li Yunjing himself knew how much of it was genuine and how much was fake.

"Yes! We must be careful! We must not be careless!"

Seeing Li Yunjing about to leave, Lü Ruoxi grabbed his arm again and gave him some instructions.

"Don't worry! You just don't trust me! And you don't trust your teacher? With your teacher's clone protecting me, who can hurt me?"

Li Yunjing smiled, pulled Lü Ruoxi closer, and gently kissed her forehead to comfort her.

After leaving, Li Yunjing did not rush to the "Shenxiao Dao Sect" military camp assembly point, which was the main force's assembly point and a huge operation, as well as an open operation.

Li Yunjing's assessment task falls under the "Task Hall," so his gathering place this time is not the Four Directions Mountain Peak, but the sect's true important place, the Task Hall.

The central mountain range is the true core of the "Shenxiao Dao Sect".

Even Li Yunjing has only come a few times.

This place is usually extremely strict, let alone on days when the army sets off. There are guards every three steps and sentries every five steps, and there are cold-faced cultivators everywhere.

These cultivators were not wearing Taoist robes, but rather suits of armor. The people on duty were not from various mountain peaks, but from the four guardian armies.

Li Yunjing carefully observed these guys, showing his identity token along the way, before passing through several checks and entering the "Mission Hall".

The enormous hall was three thousand feet high, like a celestial palace in the clouds.

At this moment, thousands of cultivators have gathered on the huge white jade plaza in front of the "Mission Hall". Among them, the thirty-three Foundation Establishment cultivators who accepted the mission also arrived here early in the morning, waiting to reach the border ahead through the ultra-long-distance teleportation array.

Of these thousands of people, apart from Li Yunjing and those cultivators who had temporarily signed up through missions, the others each had their own purposes and did not follow the main army. Instead, they planned to use teleportation arrays to enter the border region on their own.

Among these people, there were quite a few Golden Core cultivators.

However, Li Yunjing did not dare to use his divine sense to investigate indiscriminately. He only judged the other party's identity by their clothing. Of course, Li Yunjing did not know how many hidden experts were among them.

It is even more unknown whether there are any Nascent Soul Realm cultivators among them.

When Li Yunjing arrived, many people turned their attention to him, seemingly curious as to why he was dressed like an inner disciple.

It should be noted that there are no cultivators below the Foundation Establishment Realm present in the square today.

Early in the morning, the guards closed the route into the "Central Mountains" to prevent unauthorized personnel from entering.

Li Yunjing's attire aroused everyone's curiosity.

However, upon closer inspection, everyone discovered that this person's "Azure Moon Daoist Robe" was different; it seemed to have been upgraded and modified, and was actually a low-grade spiritual artifact.

With a magical artifact in hand, even though their aura was concealed, everyone still sensed something unusual. They were all too familiar with that faint true essence power.

This person is also a Foundation Establishment cultivator!

"Dear senior brothers and sisters, I am Li Yunjing. Please take care of me."

Arriving at the square and joining the crowd, Li Yunjing said with a smile.

To avoid trouble, you should still register when you dare to do so; otherwise, it would be bad if it caused a misunderstanding.
