Immortality and cultivation begin with full comprehension.

Chapter 532 Preparing for the Marriage Proposal (Seeking Monthly Tickets)

Li Yunjing was unwilling to investigate the truth or falsehood of the matter, nor did he want to know. It was enough that Zhu Wanyun could show him such a longing expression.

After all, Zhu Wanyun was just a housekeeper, not his woman.

No sooner had he finished speaking than Little Yellow fluttered its wings and landed on his shoulder, nuzzling his cheek with its head. Its golden eyes were full of grievance, and it made a "chirp chirp" complaining sound, as if accusing him of being away from home for too long.

"Your Excellency, it's all I should do!"

Zhu Wanyun stopped crying and started laughing, pulling him towards the inner courtyard.

Passing through the corridor covered with wisteria, Li Yunjing discovered that there was a new spiritual field in the courtyard, planted with all kinds of rare medicinal herbs.

"This is all thanks to Xiao Huang."

Zhu Wanyun pointed to the little golden bird hopping around in the spirit field, "It found the seeds from somewhere and guarded them day and night, and actually grew three hundred-year-old Qingxin grasses."

As they were talking, Little Yellow suddenly took to the air, its wingspan reaching over ten feet, and its body radiating golden light.

It raised its head and let out a clear cry, and the spiritual energy around the manor began to gather wildly, condensing into golden runes around its body.

Li Yunjing's pupils contracted slightly.

This is clearly a natural supernatural ability unique to the Golden-Winged Roc clan!
It seems that Xiao Huang's transformation over the years has been far more astonishing than he imagined.

"This little guy has become exceptionally hardworking since you went into seclusion."

Zhu Wanyun sighed softly, "It always says that I need to become stronger quickly in order to protect the manor and protect me..."

"Ok!"

Li Yun nodded and gently pulled Zhu Wanyun into his arms.

Fifteen years of separation have brought about a complete change of scenery and people inside and outside the resort, but the warmth and affection I feel have never changed.

Night quietly enveloped "Qiwu Villa," and the palace lanterns under the eaves lit up one after another, casting a hazy, warm glow.

Li Yunjing and Zhu Wanyun sat side by side by the window, while Xiao Huang returned to the big tree outside, curled up in its nest, and made soft purring sounds.

Moonlight streamed through the carved window lattice, illuminating Zhu Wanyun's flushed cheeks. She lowered her eyes, fiddling with the hem of her dress, her fifteen years of longing turning into shimmering tears in her eyes.

"Come keep me company tonight!"

Li Yunjing raised his hand to brush away the stray hairs at her temples, and when his fingertips touched a few strands of silver hair, a sour feeling rose in his throat.

He leaned down and gently kissed her forehead, whispering something.

Zhu Wanyun's aptitude was average, and in Li Yunjing's view, there was almost no hope of her breaking through to the Golden Core Realm.

As his cultivation level improved, each period of seclusion lasted for decades, or even centuries.

The five hundred years of lifespan available to those in the Foundation Establishment stage seem to be insufficient to withstand further depletion.

Perhaps unaware that after several periods of seclusion, the beauty before him would long be gone.

Li Yunjing himself can defy fate, but it would be extremely difficult for him to help those around him do the same.

He can't do it yet!
In the future, it may not be possible to do so!

Li Yunjing was a smart man; how could he not know Zhu Wanyun's feelings for him?

Although this woman is a princess in the secular world, in the cultivation world where aptitude is highly valued, her resources are far too small.

Compared to Li Yunjing, they are from two completely different worlds.

Even among Li Yunjing's women, Yu Yunyi, Lü Ruoxi, Xing'er, Yue'er, Zhao Qi, and even his lover from the East China Sea, are far superior to Zhu Wanyun.

As a result, Li Yunjing could only give Zhu Wanyun the identity of "steward of Qiwu Villa".

She doesn't even deserve to be a concubine!

Li Yunjing was like the rising sun; even before reaching his peak, he had already shone brightly enough to attract the attention of millions of cultivators.

His woman naturally couldn't be anything less than exceptional.

This is why Li Yunjing has never promoted Zhu Wanyun's status.

What's the point of a woman who won't live for a thousand years being all lovey-dovey?

If that's the case, why waste time and energy investing in love and suffering in vain?

Tonight, Li Yunjing decided to favor Zhu Wanyun, as a way of making it up to her!
Zhu Wanyun understood Li Yunjing's meaning, and trembling, she wrapped her arms around his neck, all her waiting and grievances turning into a long, drawn-out response...

The gauze curtains slowly fell, the candlelight inside flickered, and only the night breeze rustled through the spirit field, gently caressing the herbs.

That night, time seemed to freeze in the overlapping heartbeats of our hearts.

Little Yellow suddenly opened its eyes, its golden pupils reflecting the warm light shining through the window paper. It cleverly spread its wings and flew to the eaves, guarding this rare peace for its owner.

As dawn broke through the clouds, Zhu Wanyun fell into a deep sleep in Li Yunjing's arms, a peaceful smile still on her lips.

"Ugh……"

Looking at the snow-white skin of the beauty in his arms, Li Yunjing shook his head slightly, slowly got up, tidied himself up, and went out.

He also wanted to go to "Chaoyang Peak" to see his first wife!

After Li Yunjing left, Zhu Wanyun slowly opened her eyes, watching the figure disappear into the horizon, feeling heartbroken...

On Chaoyang Peak, the morning mist had not yet dissipated, and the glazed tiles reflected a shimmering light under the sun.

Li Yunjing stood in front of the vermilion door. Before he could even raise his hand to knock, the door creaked open from the inside.

Yu Yunyi, dressed in a lotus-colored ruqun (a type of traditional Chinese dress), with pearls swaying in her hair as she walked, saw her husband again. The woman's breath trembled slightly, as if she could hardly contain her emotions.

Lu Ruoxi, standing beside Yu Yunyi, also couldn't hide her excitement.

How could the two women not know that Li Yunjing had caused such a commotion at the Seven Star Palace in the past month?

After fifteen years of arduous training, both women have made rapid progress in their cultivation.

Yu Yunyi and Lü Ruoxi have both cultivated to the eighth level of the Foundation Establishment Realm!
It is conceivable how much resources the two women spent, how much hardship they endured, and how much effort they put in over the past fifteen years to raise their cultivation to this level!
At that moment, the two women's eyes fell simultaneously on the new deputy sect leader token that Li Yunjing was wearing at his waist, and their eyes reddened again.

"Yun Jing!"

Yu Yunyi threw herself into his arms first, her voice nasal, "Fifteen whole years, do you know what we've been through..."

Before he could finish speaking, he choked up and could no longer utter a word.

Lu Ruoxi stood to the side, biting her lip and twisting the ribbon of her skirt with her fingertips. Only when Li Yunjing reached out his hand to her did she run over and rush over, her warm tears soaking his sleeves.

Little Yellow chirped and landed on Yu Yunyi's shoulder, gently patting her cheek with its wings, making her laugh through her tears: "Little Yellow has grown quite a bit!"

She raised her hand to gently stroke the golden bird's feathers, but Little Yellow pecked her palm, as if scolding her for neglecting her master while talking.

Li Yunjing smiled and led the two women into the house. The sandalwood scent mixed with their familiar body fragrance wafted towards them. On the table was a half-cold breakfast, which they had obviously left behind in a hurry after hearing the news.

"Over the years, thanks to Ling'er's care, I have been able to devote myself to cultivation at Chaoyang Peak."

Yu Yunyi poured him a cup of spiritual tea, with fresh osmanthus blossoms floating in it. "How has your cultivation been these past few years?"

"You heartless bastard!"

Lu Ruoxi gave Li Yunjing a coquettish glare: "You've come out of seclusion, and you didn't even bother to come see us sisters right away."

Even so, she secretly put a piece of honey cake into Li Yunjing's bowl.

This pastry is exactly the kind that Li Yunjing loves to eat the most.

"good to eat!"

Li Yunjing took a bite, and the sweetness melted on his tongue. In a daze, he felt that it was more delicious than any pill he had swallowed during his seclusion.

"These past fifteen years have been tough on you."

After finishing the spiritual tea and pastries, Li Yunjing looked at Yu Yunyi and then at Lü Ruoxi, his eyes full of doting affection. "I am in seclusion in the Thunder Marrow Cave. Although I am unaware of the passage of time in the outside world, whenever I encounter difficulties in my cultivation, I always remember that you are waiting for me."

"You went into seclusion in such a hurry that you didn't leave any message!"

Yu Yunyi buried her head in his chest, her voice muffled: "We were worried that something had happened to you. Later, we asked the Sect Master for an audience and found out that you were in seclusion."

She paused, her fingertips lightly touching the deputy sect leader's token at Li Yunjing's waist.

Lü Ruoxi leaned on his shoulder and said, "For the past fifteen years, Yunyi and I have been cultivating diligently, just waiting for you to emerge from seclusion!"

Her eyes were sparkling, almost as if they were pressed against Li Yunjing's chest, becoming one with him.

Suddenly, Little Yellow chirped and flew onto the table, scratching at the honey cake with its paws. It then tilted its head to look at Li Yunjing, as if urging him to eat more.

"hehe!"

The ambiguous atmosphere between the three of them dissipated only after Xiao Huang suddenly appeared.

Li Yunjing smiled and pinched the golden bird's head, then turned to the two women and said, "During this seclusion, I was fortunate enough to comprehend the wonders of the Five Elements Divine Thunder and the Yin-Yang Divine Thunder. My cultivation has now reached the second level of the Golden Core stage."

"But what makes me happier than all of that is seeing you all safe and sound when I return."

A wisp of purple-gold lightning rose from his palm. "When we go into seclusion, I will tell you all the great Daos I have mastered! In addition, we will study the 'Yin Yang He Dao Jing' carefully."

At this point, Li Yunjing looked at the two women meaningfully.

"Okay!"

Yu Yunyi and Lü Ruoxi both opened their eyes wide at the same time, their eyes filled with anticipation.

Since trying the Yin-Yang Harmony Scripture last time, the two knew that it was the best way to cultivate, which could increase efficiency many times over.

The two of them had naturally long been thinking about cultivating together with Li Yunjing.

Moreover, dual cultivation is an extremely wonderful thing. After sixteen or seventeen years without intimacy, the two of them quite missed that wonderful feeling.

"Ling'er, go and tidy up my room."

Thinking of this, Yu Yunyi called out to Ling'er outside the living room.

"Yes! Miss!"

Ling'er didn't come in, but playfully replied from outside. Then her footsteps could be heard fading away, as if she had gone up to the second floor.

"Little Huang, go have fun! Come back to us after three days!"

Li Yunjing smiled, patted Xiao Huang's head, indicating that it could go out now and not disturb his intimacy with Yu Yunyi and Lü Ruoxi.

"Chiji..."

The little guy tilted its head, looked at Li Yunjing, then at Yu Yunyi and Lü Ruoxi, and seemed to understand something. It hopped and skipped around, then flapped its wings and circled the three of them, chirping as it flew...

Seeing Li Yunjing, Lü Ruoxi, and Yu Yunyi's helplessness, the little guy wisely flew out of the corridor.

"Hehe! This little guy is getting smarter and smarter."

Li Yunjing shook his head helplessly.

"Oh, right, Ruoxi and I will go up first, you can come up later!"

Yu Yunyi pulled Lü Ruoxi to her feet, ready to leave the living room.

"what?"

Li Yunjing was taken aback, wondering what the two women were up to.

Hehe! I have a surprise for you!

Lü Ruoxi smiled and blew a kiss before taking Yu Yunyi's hand, and the two women left together.

"hehe!"

Li Yunjing chuckled and shook his head helplessly. They're an old married couple, why do they still need to come up with something new?

However, he wasn't in a hurry. He had spent the whole night fighting with Zhu Wanyun, and his desires had been somewhat satisfied, so he wasn't in a rush.

When the time was almost up, Li Yunjing's "Ten Thousand Mile Communication Talisman" suddenly vibrated. It turned out that Yu Yunyi had sent a message asking him to come upstairs.

"I'd like to see what you've prepared!"

Li Yunjing chuckled, finished his tea, stood up, and walked towards the stairs.

When he entered Yu Yunyi's familiar boudoir again, he found that it was somewhat different from before.

The floor of the boudoir was paved with snow-white second-grade top-quality jade; the windows were made of top-grade ten-thousand-year-old sandalwood, and the surrounding area was decorated with various spiritual artifacts and ornaments, adding to the atmosphere.

Inside the room, sandalwood incense burned in a censer, its fragrance filling the air and bringing a sense of tranquility and peace.

Yu Yunyi and Lü Ruoxi knelt side by side on the jade couch covered with dragon-patterned brocade. The two removed their elaborate outer garments and wore only close-fitting lotus-root pink and moon-white gauze dresses. Underneath the gossamer-thin fabric, a blush of shyness could be faintly seen.

Ling'er blushed, winked mischievously at Li Yunjing, and then slunk out the door.

"Remember to focus your mind on your dantian and follow my guidance."

Li Yunjing suppressed his impulse, lightly flicked his fingertips, and the Yin-Yang Harmony Scripture method began to operate.

Yu Yunyi and Lü Ruoxi also simultaneously activated the "Yin Yang He Dao Jing" to seek the feeling of perfect fusion with Li Yunjing.

"Yun Jing, I'm ready."

Yu Yunyi was the first to reach out and wrap her arms around Li Yunjing's neck, her warm breath brushing against his ear.

Before Li Yunjing could answer, Lü Ruoxi had already wrapped her arms around his waist, her fingertips brushing across his back like butterfly wings, causing his skin to tremble slightly.

"call……"

Li Yunjing took a deep breath and gently wrapped his hands around the two women's wrists.

As the Yin-Yang Harmony Scripture was activated, a gentle, azure spiritual energy rose around Yu Yunyi, while Lü Ruoxi was enveloped in crimson flames...

As their spiritual energies converged, a faint glow appeared where their skin touched, as if thousands of ants were gnawing at them, sending a tingling sensation straight to their heads from their skin.

"what……"

Lu Ruoxi suddenly tilted her head back, a blush spreading from her cheeks to her neck. Under Li Yunjing's guidance, the spiritual power within her body broke through the shackles of the eighth level of Foundation Establishment.

Seeing this, Yu Yunyi took the initiative to kiss Li Yunjing, her lips slightly parted, allowing him to transfer the spiritual power containing the Yin-Yang Dao.

The three of them mingled, creating a spiritual storm within the boudoir. The spiritual spring outside the window was drawn up and shot into the sky, condensing into a dazzling rain of light like countless stars.

Little Yellow, who had been dozing under the eaves, was startled awake by the powerful fluctuations, its golden pupils suddenly contracting. It chirped strangely and spread its wings to fly towards a distant mountaintop, seemingly knowing to give its master absolute privacy.

Three days later, the spiritual energy that filled the boudoir receded like a tide.

Li Yunjing smiled as he looked at Yu Yunyi and Lü Ruoxi's smooth and delicate bodies, and chuckled, "How was your training this time?"

"Um……"

After three days and three nights of cultivation, Yu Yunyi felt a little tired. She gently hummed in agreement and leaned against Li Yunjing's chest, enjoying the tranquility after the storm.

"Ruoxi?"

Li Yunjing was full of energy. He gently stroked Yu Yunyi's hair while looking at Lü Ruoxi on the other side and teasing her with a smile.

However, there was no response to his question.

Seeing that she was soundly asleep, Li Yunjing pressed his index finger to Lü Ruoxi's luscious red lips and asked with a smile, "You're still pretending to be asleep?"

"Hmph! I knew I couldn't hide it from my husband's eyes!"

On her stunningly beautiful face, Lü Ruoxi slowly opened her large eyes, playfully opened her mouth, and gently bit Li Yunjing's fingertip with her pearly teeth.

At this moment, Lü Ruoxi's face was still flushed, as if she was still experiencing the effects of three days of cultivation.

"Hey! You've learned to bite now?"

Li Yunjing was startled, feeling a slight pain, and smiled as he reached out and gently pinched Dingxiang's little tongue.

"Hmph! You know how to bully me!"

Lu Ruoxi rolled her eyes at Li Yunjing with her big, watery eyes, then looked at Yu Yunyi, signaling Li Yunjing to go and tease her.

"hehe!"

Enjoying the pleasures of the boudoir, Li Yunjing chuckled softly, feeling utterly relaxed.

"Puch!"

Yu Yunyi naturally noticed Lü Ruoxi's little gesture and couldn't help but cover her mouth and chuckle, "Ruoxi, do you want your husband to bully me? Let's see if he's willing to do it? Hehe..."

Looking at Yu Yunyi's mischievous appearance, Lü Ruoxi couldn't help but laugh.

"Husband, look here! It's all your fault!"

Suddenly, Lü Ruoxi vented her resentment on Li Yunjing.

"what happened?"

Li Yunjing was taken aback, not understanding what it meant.

"Look! It's all your fault! It's covered in red marks!"

Lü Ruoxi propped herself up and touched her proud, snow-white breasts with her slender, white fingers.

"Um... I'm sorry..."

Li Yunjing looked over and revealed a hint of apology.

Have you been too rough with your food or hands these past three days?
So much so that some strawberries were left behind?
"Hate……"

Lu Ruoxi said coquettishly, her pretty face blushing even more, and she glared at Li Yunjing.

"Hehe! It's mainly because it tasted so good that I couldn't resist and ate a bit more..."

Li Yunjing joked with a smile.

"Let's go! Three days have passed, it's time for us to go out and see our friends."

Li Yunjing reluctantly kissed the two women on the forehead before standing up and putting on his clothes.

"Um……"

Yu Yunyi and Lü Ruoxi nodded and obediently got up.

"Oh, right! In a few days, I'll visit both your families. It's time to propose to your elders!"

Li Yunjing seemed to have said this unintentionally.

The hairpin in Lü Ruoxi's hand clattered onto the dressing case. Her almond-shaped eyes widened as she stared at Li Yunjing in disbelief: "You...you're serious?"

Her voice trembled, and her fingertips gripped the hem of her skirt tightly, as if afraid that this was just a fleeting dream.

Yu Yunyi's eyes were red and swollen. All the grievances and expectations of the past fifteen years turned into tears that streamed down her cheeks and soaked her clothes.

The two women never expected that Li Yunjing would actually give them a formal title!

"Of course it's true."

Li Yunjing walked up to the two women and took their trembling hands in his own. “I’ve made you suffer all these years. Now that I have a firm foothold in the sect, I will marry you in a grand and glorious way.”
