Dual cultivation makes you stronger, everyone else is a prodigy, and I'm the only one slacking

When Lu Wanying woke up, she was in a deep and secluded place.

Unexpectedly, there was another hidden world beneath that underground palace.

The sky was a deep, dark abyss, devoid of any stars.

Underfoot were mottled, dark blue pebbles.

Not far away is a huge river, its water a deep blue, with fireflies floating on and off, looking from afar like a flowing blue galaxy.

Using the dim light, she quickly made out her surroundings.

There was no one around.

When they were falling, she deliberately stuck a love charm on Li Yunyu's back. Logically speaking, the two of them should have landed in the same place by now.

She staggered to her feet and searched around by the faint light of the blue river.

Soon, two figures came into view in the distance.

Li Yunyu lay unconscious on the gravel beach, his eyes covered with a white silk cloth.

Yu Luoning was right next to him.

He's still alive and doesn't seem to be seriously injured.

A fleeting look of joy crossed Lu Wanying's eyes.

Now that no one is around, it's the perfect time to use the Extreme Pleasure Powder. But what should we do with this maid?

The system's voice rang in her mind, cold and urgent:

You'd better act quickly. My abilities can only allow Li Yunyu to sleep for another half an hour.

Lu Wanying's heart tightened.

Half an hour should be enough to take Li Yunyu's vital essence.

With the baby pills provided by the system, you're guaranteed to win on your first try.

Lu Wanying was not worried.

It was her first time doing something like this, and as a young woman, she was inevitably a little shy.

This moment of shyness was fleeting, and what did it matter compared to cultivation level?

However, the other party will definitely hold them accountable afterward.

For some reason, she always felt a vague and inexplicable fear of this young master Li.

Looking at his refined features, he seemed like a gentle and unparalleled young master from a noble family, yet his covered eyes seemed to be able to see through people's hearts.

It always makes people feel uneasy.

Looking at the unconscious Yu Luoning beside her, she immediately had a plan in mind.

Let's make the maid take the blame after everything is over.

With that thought, Lu Wanying felt relieved. She bent down, squatted beside Li Yunyu, and reached out to untie his waist belt.

Lu Wanying blushed deeply, her face flushed with embarrassment at undressing a man so intimately for the first time.

She couldn't help but glance expectantly at the waist wrapped in the jade belt.

It's slender and strong like a pine tree; it must be quite powerful when it moves.

Unfortunately, the other person was unconscious and unable to experience it firsthand.

As she thought about it, her hands moved faster and faster, and before long, Li Yunyu was only wearing her undergarments.

"What are you doing?"

Suddenly, a voice rang out from behind, startling Lu Wanying so much that her hand trembled.

When she looked up again, she saw the maid standing with her hands on her hips, looking down at her angrily.

Damn, how did she wake up so quickly?

Lu Wanying forced herself to remain calm and forced a smile: "I saw that Young Master Li had not yet woken up, so I wanted to loosen his belt to prevent him from suffocating."

Yu Luoning stared at her hand, her eyes turning cold.

"Relaxed?" she scoffed. "You're pretty professional at relaxing, you've even put your hand inside someone's clothes."

Lu Wanying's face darkened: "What do you mean?"

Yu Luoning took a step forward, pushing the people aside.

"It means that my young master doesn't need Miss Lu to worry about this. Let me, his personal maid, handle such a small matter."

"Our young master hates being touched by others, especially strange women."

Lu Wanying's face darkened: "Oh, really?"

Yu Luoning glanced at her, but her fingers didn't stop. She quietly straightened the loose belt and fastened it back in place.

"Of course, young master doesn't have a single concubine in his backyard. This shows that young master has always been virtuous and self-disciplined. I know Miss Lu means well, but this place is deserted, and men and women should be kept separate. If someone with ulterior motives sees you untying a man's belt, they might think you're trying to take advantage of him."

Lu Wanying was taken aback upon hearing this.

Yu Luoning laughed again: "Of course, I know Miss Lu would never do such a thing, right?"

Lu Wanying's face turned red with anger.

Unexpectedly, the sound of their conversation woke Li Yunyu up prematurely.

He opened his eyes and saw Yu Luoning half-lying beside him, her fingertips resting on the belt at his waist, as if... fumbling to unfasten it.

Li Yunyu paused for a moment, then slightly tugged at the corner of his mouth. "How is it?"

Yu Luoning looked like she'd seen a ghost.

That's it, I can't explain it anymore.

She tried to pull her hand back, but Lu Wanying stepped forward first and said:

"Young Master Li, you're awake?"

"I just woke up, and as soon as I got close, I saw... Miss Yu untying the belt around your waist."

She paused, as if finding it difficult to speak, or perhaps thinking of Yu Luoning's feelings:

"I don't know if she wanted to take care of you, or... if she acted rashly."

"But there's no one around here. If word gets out, it might damage Young Master Li's reputation."

Yu Luoning: "?"

She stared at Lu Wanying, almost laughing out of anger.

Li Yunyu had already stood up, his hand covering Yu Luoning's hand.

"How can you be so clumsy? You can't even tie a belt properly."

Lu Wanying was somewhat surprised, not expecting that Li Yunyu would actually help Yu Luoning out of that predicament.

After straightening his clothes, Li Yunyu said calmly, "Go find a way out."

Yu Luoning hummed and followed behind Li Yunyu.

Lu Wanying, on the other hand, kept asking Li Yunyu questions along the way, while pretending to be afraid.

"Luckily, I ended up next to Young Master Li."

"If I were alone in an unfamiliar place... I wouldn't know what to do."

She paused, as if gathering her courage, and said, "Young Master Li, I'm really flustered. Could I stand behind you, closer to you? I'm afraid something might suddenly rush out, and with my shallow cultivation, I'm afraid I won't be able to handle it."

Yu Luoning followed along, feeling very annoyed.

Little did she know that Li Yunyu had taken in her reaction with just a slight turn of his head.

His mood inexplicably improved, and the corner of his mouth twitched slightly.

Yu Luoning suddenly said:

"If Miss Lu is so scared, why don't you just stand next to me and hold my hand tightly? I'm not afraid. I'm brave enough to protect you!"

Lu Wanying froze, meeting Yu Luoning's smiling eyes, and cursed inwardly, "Mind your own business."

On the surface, he said, "Alright, then thank you, Miss Yu. However, among the three of us, Young Master Li has the highest cultivation level. It would be safer to stay closer to Young Master Li."

Isn't what they're saying implying that she's weak and can't protect people?

Yu Luoning didn't care at all.

Although it's unclear what Lu Wanying's mindset is, Li Yunyu is the experience package she's eyeing.

Whether it's green tea or black tea, trying to steal it? No way.

Unless she successfully copies it.
