I'm in the world of cultivation, and I get a system for becoming a wealthy urban tycoon?

Qi Fang looked at the two hands clasped together, then at Mu Yunxue, whose pretty face was cold but whose eyes clearly held a hint of tenderness and love when she looked at Lu Yang. He felt his mind go blank and a sharp pain shot through his chest.

He had known Mu Yunxue for four years and pursued her for four years without ever slacking off.

But after four years, the distance between him and Mu Yunxue is almost the same as when they first met four years ago.

Young Master Lu only took a little over a month to enter the icy and snowy land that he could never have entered before.

Thinking of this, a surge of anger rose in his chest, but it was extinguished in an instant by an even stronger sense of powerlessness.

He felt incredibly bitter.

Even he himself had to admit that he was no match for Young Master Lu.

Whether it's talent, demeanor, appearance, background, or those mysterious methods that even the sect leader and the supreme elders found astonishing... he is far inferior.

It's normal for Junior Sister Mu to fall in love with Young Master Lu, right?

Thinking of this, he took a deep breath, forcibly swallowed the surging bitterness, lowered his eyes, and stopped looking.

That once spirited face now only showed a dejected and listless look.

Mu Yunxue also saw Qi Fang, but her gaze remained calm as always, and she looked away after a single glance.

Lu Yang didn't care, after all, he had only met Qi Fang once and hadn't even exchanged a few words with him, so he naturally wouldn't pay attention to the emotional changes of a stranger.

At this moment, Qin Nanyue also reached the summit.

Upon seeing Lu Yang, her eyes lit up, and a delighted smile appeared on her lips.

Today she was wearing a dark black fitted outfit, with a black soft armor belt tightly cinched at the waist, outlining her slender yet powerful waistline.

Her long, black hair was pulled up high into a ponytail, revealing her slender, fair neck.

The moment she saw Lu Yang, her bright eyes lit up.

This guy is finally back!

They've been gone for so long, and I haven't even bothered to contact them!

These days, while she was cultivating in her cave, she would often think of Lu Yang.

She remembered his composed demeanor at the auction, his profile as he walked alongside her in the forbidden area, his mischievous smile during their sparring match, and that unexpected kiss…

The longer the time passes, the deeper the longing grows.

Whenever she missed Yingying, she would chat with her, help her with chores, and process herbs, using her busyness to dispel the emptiness in her heart.

Later, Yingying comprehended that Earth-rank cultivation technique to a certain extent and went into seclusion to break through to the Foundation Establishment stage.

Alone in her cave, she was bored out of her mind. Her longing seemed to have seeped into her very bones, making it impossible for her to concentrate on her cultivation. She would always open her eyes inexplicably after meditating for less than half an hour, staring blankly in the direction of the cave entrance.

She felt a little regretful.

She regretted being too shy before; she hadn't dared to see Lu Yang before he left.

Seeing Lu Yang return, she felt as if her whole being had come back to life.

The longing that had been building up for nearly a month transformed into an irrepressible joy at this moment, making her steps unconsciously lighter.

Just as she was about to step forward, she saw Lu Yang and Mu Yunxue holding hands tightly.

Qin Nanyue suddenly stopped in her tracks.

Her heart sank suddenly, and then a strong, pungent sourness surged up from her chest and rushed into her nasal cavity.

Her eyes instantly stung, and she blinked hard to keep the tears from falling.

good good!

That bastard... I'm missing him so much while I'm in the sect, and he's having a great time out there!?

Qin Nanyue naturally knew Mu Yunxue as well.

A sect prodigy with a superior spiritual root, a genius rarely seen in the Golden Rainbow Sword Sect for hundreds of years, Senior Sister Mu, aloof and cold as ice and snow...

Who in the sect doesn't know her?!

But weren't the two of them originally unrelated?

Why are you suddenly holding hands?!

How could this bastard do this to Yingying?!

If it's really because Yingying and Shiqing can't handle his pampering, then... they can go to her!

Why go looking for other women?

They kissed last time!

The more Qin Nanyue thought about it, the more aggrieved she felt. Her beautiful and spirited face tightened, and her red lips were pressed into a thin line.

However, with so many outsiders present, she didn't want to embarrass Lu Yang, so she suppressed her anger and grievances and remained silent.

Lu Yang's eyes lit up when he saw Qin Nanyue coming over.

This guy used to be shy and avoided him, but now he's finally willing to come out?

He smiled at Lin Xuanchen and the others, and casually said, "Elders, if there's nothing else, you can go ahead and do your work. I also need to rest for a while."

Lin Xuanchen and the others were all shrewd people who had lived for hundreds or even thousands of years. When they saw Lu Yang looking at Qin Nanyue, they immediately understood what he meant.

Lin Xuanchen smiled broadly and cupped his hands in greeting, saying, "Young Master Lu has been traveling a long way these past few days and deserves a good rest. If you need anything, please feel free to contact us!"

Qi Yunshu and Han Qianshan nodded repeatedly.

Su Jinxuan glanced at Lu Yang, then at Mu Yunxue and Qin Nanyue. A playful, amused look flashed in her sharp phoenix eyes, but she didn't say anything. She simply nodded slightly to Lu Yang: "Young Master Lu, I have gained a deeper understanding of the 'Golden Rainbow Sword Manual' these past few days. I will discuss it with you later."

Lu Yang smiled and nodded: "Alright, then I'll wait for Elder Su."

Su Jinxuan smiled slightly on her beautiful, cold face: "I'll deal with the formation first."

After saying that, she turned and left with Baili Qiushui.

Before leaving, Baili Qiushui turned back for one last, reluctant look at the Jiuhua Cloud Carriage parked behind her.

The array patterns flowing on the nine-layered canopy were more tempting to her than any rare and precious treasure!

She genuinely wanted to stay and study the formation on it carefully!

Qi Yunshu glanced at Qi Fang, who was pale and somewhat lost in thought, and sighed inwardly.

He then transmitted his voice to Mu Yunxue, his tone gentle yet carrying a hint of elder's concern: "Yunxue, have you and Young Master Lu already expressed your feelings for each other?"

A faint hint of shyness flashed in Mu Yunxue's cool eyes.

Even though she was exceptionally talented and had a cold personality, she was still just a girl who was not yet twenty years old.

She naturally felt a little embarrassed when her elders pointed out her romantic relationship issues.

However, Mu Yunxue was always frank and straightforward, and directly transmitted her voice: "Yes, Master, Junior Brother Lu and I are already Daoist partners."

Qi Yunshu had expected this, but hearing her disciple admit it himself still left her with mixed feelings.

However, he quickly suppressed his regret and transmitted his voice, "In that case, you and Young Master Lu should get along well. Will you be staying on Young Master Lu's mountain peak from now on?"

Upon hearing this, Mu Yunxue's clear, cold eyes flickered, and her heart was immediately moved.

Living together, she could discuss cultivation with Junior Brother Lu anytime, anywhere.

and……

She thought of the three days of dual cultivation she had spent on the Jiuhua Cloud Chariot.

The feeling of being enveloped in warmth, the closeness between two people with no distance between them, the wonderful experience of spiritual energy circulating and merging between their two dantian.

A slight tingling sensation quietly welled up in her heart.

She really liked that cultivation method.

It's faster and more comfortable than meditating alone to refine spiritual energy on weekdays...

Sometimes it's just too tiring.

Mu Yunxue possesses a clear and discerning mind, and never avoids confronting her own inner thoughts.

She wanted to cultivate with Junior Brother Lu in this way.

She nodded silently and transmitted her voice, "Okay. I'll stay on Junior Brother Lu's mountain."

Qi Yunshu breathed a sigh of relief when Mu Yunxue agreed.

His actions also stemmed from a personal motive: to consider Qi Fang's well-being.

Given the current relationship between Lu Yang and Mu Yunxue, if Mu Yunxue were still living on his mountain peak, Qi Fang would likely find it difficult to overcome his inner conflict.

For Qi Fang, having Mu Yunxue live on Lu Yang's mountain peak was actually a relief.

This is good news not only for Mu Yunxue and Lu Yang, but also for Qi Fang.

It can be described as a win-win-win situation.

"In that case, you can go back to your cave to pack your things at any time."

After transmitting his message, Qi Yunshu took several cultivators from his mountain peak and left first.

Qi Fang followed behind him, never once glancing at Mu Yunxue again.

Lin Xuanchen and his group also left with their respective people.

Qin Lan and Qin Xiaohe originally planned to stay here and catch up with Lu Yang, but Qin Huan and Qin Yun gave them meaningful glances and half-pulled, half-dragged them away.

Soon, everyone on the summit left, leaving only Lu Yang, Mu Yunxue, and Qin Nanyue.

The mist slowly rose from the valley, shrouding the ancient, verdant pines around the peak in a hazy, indistinct way.

In the distance, a silvery waterfall cascades down from the mountain peak, its sound muffled and distant in the mist.

The Jiuhua Cloud Chariot stood quietly on a platform not far away. The pale gold patterns on the nine-layered canopy shimmered and swirled in the mist, like some ancient and steady breath.

Lu Yang took Mu Yunxue's hand and slowly walked to Qin Nanyue.

He looked at Qin Nanyue's taut, yet slightly aggrieved, spirited face, and a mischievous smile crept across his lips: "Oh, Nanyue finally decided to leave the room?"

Qin Nanyue felt a pang of panic when she thought about how she had previously avoided Lu Yang.

Could it be that... Lu Yang was with Mu Yunxue because I was avoiding him?

If that's the case, wouldn't she be pushing Lu Yang into someone else's arms?

Thinking of this, Qin Nanyue felt quite regretful.

Qin Nanyue, Qin Nanyue, Yingying clearly said she didn't mind, and even actively encouraged you to be with Lu Yang. You yourself had already decided in your heart that this big lecherous wolf, so why were you so spineless? Why didn't you seize the opportunity?!

She was the one who arrived first!

Surprisingly, Mu Yunxue beat her to it!

I'm usually not that shy, so why am I so useless when it really matters?!

She pursed her red lips, forcibly suppressing the regret in her heart.

The past is the past, and there's no point in talking about it now.

She composed herself, glanced at Mu Yunxue's aloof and stunningly beautiful face, and forced a smile, saying in a joking tone, "You big pervert, how come Senior Sister Mu, who is as beautiful as an ice fairy, is so intimate with you? You don't happen to have some kind of leverage over her, do you?"

Lu Yang's face darkened.

Goodness...

Although he knew that in Qin Nanyue's eyes, he always seemed to be a perverted lecher.

But isn't this idea a bit too twisted?!

Mu Yunxue remained calm and explained quite seriously, "Junior Sister Qin is joking. Junior Brother Lu and I are in love and only got together after confirming our feelings for each other."

She never expected Qin Nanyue to view Lu Yang in this way.

She naturally intended to explain, lest she make a fool of herself.

Qin Nanyue's smile froze.

really……

The two of them are really together!

Moreover, Mu Yunxue actually helped this lecherous man explain!

Wouldn't that make me seem petty and immature?!

Qin Nanyue felt embarrassed to continue teasing Lu Yang. She lowered her eyes and said softly, "Oh, I see. I misunderstood Junior Brother Lu."

That sweet, coquettish tone was completely different from her usual bold and decisive style.

Lu Yang: "????"

He looked at Qin Nanyue with a strange expression: "...Are you alright? Are you sick?"

Qin Nanyue's expression froze again.

She couldn't hold back any longer, reached out and grabbed Lu Yang's hand that wasn't holding Mu Yunxue's, and bit down hard.

Lu Yang's expression was quite calm.

LOL, it doesn't hurt at all.

Even with his physical strength, he had to control his recoil to avoid damaging the guy's teeth.

Qin Nanyue's teeth felt a little sore, and she became even angrier when she felt Lu Yang's deliberate control.

She opened her mouth and glared at Lu Yang.

Those bright eyes held anger, grievance, and regret, and the rims were slightly red.

Then, under Mu Yunxue's cold gaze, she took a step forward, stood on tiptoe, and bit Lu Yang's lip hard.

After releasing her mouth, her eyes were red, and her voice carried a hint of grievance and resentment as she softly hummed, "I was here first, you perverted lecher!"
