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

Cui Xiu clapped his hands and flew out of the coffin with a look of disgust on his face.

"Alright, get rid of the annoying bug."

Yu Luoning: "..."

Yu Luoning's eyes twitched as she watched, and after a long while, she managed to utter a single sentence.

"Senior, is this polite? You threw the original owner of this body out of there?"

Cui Xiu chuckled and looked Yu Luoning up and down.

"What? What other fetish do you have? Do you like keeping corpses?"

"No, I was thinking, what if he's the owner of the coffin?"

"I personally moved him to a new place; it's his good fortune," Cui Xiu said irritably.

To think that he, a dignified evil corpse, would kill without blinking an eye and do whatever he wanted, would be so polite as to dispose of a corpse?

It's already an act of great kindness of him not to destroy this person, both in appearance and spirit.

Yu Luoning nodded obsequiously.

I felt a little guilty.

She glanced at the body that had been thrown into the pile of rocks.

We've taken someone's mansion, so we can't just leave their body to rot in the wilderness, can we?

Yu Luoning rubbed his hands together and forced himself to speak, "That senior, I think it's a bit unethical to just leave him like this. I'll just dig a hole and bury him."

Cui Xiu ignored her and turned her back.

Seeing that he didn't react, Yu Luoning quickly took out a small shovel from her Qiankun bag.

They found a shady spot on the rock face, rolled up their sleeves, and began digging a hole.

The pit was dug in no time, and she carefully lowered the male corpse into it.

Only then did she have time to examine the young male corpse closely.

It's said that the male corpse was really very handsome.

Her long, silvery-white hair fell to the side of her neck, and a divine loneliness seemed to linger on her face.

Yu Luoning solemnly withdrew her gaze and bowed three times to the corpse.

She sighed. This corpse was probably kept intact because of the bronze coffin. Now that the coffin was gone, she didn't know how long it would take for the body to rot.

Yu Luoning quickly filled and compacted the soil, muttering to himself as he did so, "Brother, this feng shui is pretty good, you can make do with living here for now."

She patted the dirt off her face and looked up at Cui Xiu, who was still lounging lazily not far away.

He immediately lowered his voice and moved closer to the grave:

"Also, look carefully, I buried you, I didn't throw you out. Don't look for me tonight. There's a reason for everything, and the debtor should be held accountable. Look for the guy in the purple clothes next door."

After reciting these words, she breathed a sigh of relief, then took out a Dao-patterned stone from her Qiankun bag and carefully placed it in front of the mound of earth as an offering.

Yu Luoning originally wanted to use spirit stones, but she had used up all the spirit stones she had.

Enough is enough. Since we've occupied someone else's coffin, it's only right to offer a valuable Dao-patterned stone as a sacrifice.

"May you rest in peace, senior. If fate allows, we shall meet again."

"No, it's goodbye forever!"

Please don't come looking for me.

After completing all the procedures, Yu Luoning clapped her hands and walked towards Cui Xiu.

Choi Soo glanced at her lazily. "All done?"

"Yes, everything is ready."

"Then let's go."

Yu Luoning followed in his footsteps and walked into the depths of the narrow crevice in the stone path. The two figures instantly disappeared into the crevice.

In the shady corner of the desolate stone wall, a small mound of earth lay quietly, upon which rested a stone with Dao patterns. Beneath the mound, an almost imperceptible spiritual aura was slowly emanating.

~

"Boom!"

A crack suddenly burst open, and the narrow gap that could barely allow one person to pass through was stretched to several meters wide.

A figure leaped out from the billowing dust.

Upon closer inspection, you'll find that it's a man and a woman.

They had been swept into the lower layers of the earth's veins, and had finally found a way to break through the upper layer of gale-force winds.

With Yu Luoning's cultivation level, he couldn't break through the Soul-Devouring Gale at all.

The two struggled for a long time, with Cui Xiu deliberately excluding Yu Luoning.

"I'll go up alone. You just wait down here for your sweetheart to come and rescue you."

Without saying a word, Yu Luoning was about to call Xing Qi to complain.

"Alright, then farewell, senior. I'll call my lover who's far away in the Divine Realm right now. If you really abandoned me in the lower levels of the ley lines, do you think he'll be angry?"

Cui Xiu's face was gloomy. He grabbed Yu Luoning's waist with one hand and twisted a purple light with the other, which went straight towards the Soul-Devouring Gale.

Wherever the purple light passed, the gale was torn apart, and the two of them flew towards the ground.

After many days away, they finally returned to the ground.

The dazzling sunlight made Yu Luoning feel a little dazed, and she subconsciously covered her eyes.

Immediately following were the sounds of fierce fighting and the roars of monsters filling the air.

Yu Luoning snapped out of her daze and looked toward the source of the sound.

It turned out that due to the fluctuations in the mantle, the monsters underground were crawling up from the cracks.

The Xiling area, in particular, has become a battlefield.

Looking around, all the inner disciples and immortal masters of the Dongbao Sect had come out in full force, with sword lights crisscrossing the sky and various magical treasures intertwining.

Cui Xiu stood on a high place, his purple robe fluttering in the wind.

His eyes slowly swept across the battlefield, a chilling smile playing on his lips.

Look what he discovered: some opportunistic cultivators from other realms.

Seeing that Cui Xiu was about to leave, Yu Luoning quickly stopped him.

"Where are you going, senior?"

"What? You barely escaped with your life from my clutches? Now you want to follow me?"

Cui Xiu turned around, her eyes looking at a dead object.

Yu Luoning shook her head and muttered softly, "Well, thank you for taking care of me these past few days, senior. Although you always tried to kill me, you didn't succeed, did you? Why don't we put aside those unpleasant things and get to know each other again..."

Now that we've come to a new understanding, we can't just shout for war.

"Get to know each other again?" Cui Xiu laughed.

"Little bug, have you misunderstood something?"

"You don't really think that I'm afraid to kill you because I'm wary of your lover from the Taiyu Cangqiong Sect?"

Yu Luoning looked completely bewildered. Isn't that right?

Cui Xiuzi narrowed her eyes, and the wicked look at the corners of her mouth deepened.

"The reason I'm willing to play along with you is because there's something about you that I'm really curious to see. What will it eventually turn into?"

Yu Luoning was completely stunned.

She hates vague and ambiguous statements the most.

Explain yourself, you bastard!

Even though she was inwardly raging, Yu Luoning didn't dare to act recklessly on the surface.

She asked cautiously, "What exactly...is what you're referring to, senior?"

Cui Xiu smiled and uttered two words, "You guess."

"I have some things to take care of, but we'll see each other again soon."

"Remember! Your name is Cui Xiu."

Before he finished speaking, Cui Xiu's figure had already disappeared from the spot.

Yu Luoning felt a gust of cold wind sweep past her.

Cui Xiu?

He looks cool, domineering, and arrogant, but I never expected him to have such a delicate name.

Hey!

Xiuer, is that you?
