I let you tame beasts, and you've already formed a contract with your stunningly beautiful mast

The moisture gradually dissipated.

Leng Qingyue stood up from the warm spring water.

Water droplets slid silently down her fair and delicate skin.

With a gentle wave of her hand, a plain white dress was neatly draped over her body.

"Rumeng, I'm going back now."

Leng Qingyue fastened her belt and turned to look at Liu Rumeng, who was still blowing bubbles in the water.

Liu Rumeng rolled her eyes and waved her hand dismissively:

"Go on, go on, hurry back to your sweetheart, don't get in my way."

Leng Qingyue smiled and soared into the air on her sword.

Until that streak of light completely disappeared into the horizon.

The disdain on Liu Rumeng's face faded.

She leaped out of the water, her fiery red gauze dress instantly clinging to her voluptuous body.

"I'll see just how powerful this old lecher is!"

Liu Rumeng quickly formed hand seals.

A faint, transparent halo enveloped his entire body.

This is Baihua Peak's unique method of concealing one's breath.

Once unleashed, it disappears completely, making it difficult even for divine sense to detect.

She had absolute confidence in this secret technique.

Judging by the time, Leng Qingyue had already flown ten miles away.

Liu Rumeng lightly touched the ground with her toes, ascended into the air on her sword, and hung far behind.

Lianxiang Peak, Medicine Garden Pavilion.

At this time, Cao Kun had already returned from the outer gate's scripture pavilion.

He was comfortably leaning back on the soft couch on the second floor.

He brought up the system panel and quickly scanned the store.

"Hey, found it."

【Beast Scent: Price: 500 Quest Points.】

[It can greatly stimulate the instinctive desires of those with special physical constitutions, and has a remarkable effect on uncontracted jade beasts.]

"exchange."

Looking at the small wooden box that had suddenly appeared in his hand.

Cao Kun's lips curled into a wicked smile.

This incense was specially prepared for Liu Rumeng.

Just as I put the wooden box away, a series of whooshing sounds came from outside the attic.

The door was pushed open.

Leng Qingyue strode in, bringing with her a pleasant fragrance, and threw herself into Cao Kun's arms.

"Senior Brother Cao!"

Leng Qingyue looked up, her usually aloof face filled with joy.

"My cultivation level is completely stable! Even my Ice Spirit Body is much purer than before!"

Cao Kun took the opportunity to put his arm around her slender waist, gently playing with her soft, long hair with his fingers.

"It's stable now. Did you go to see your master?"

When Yu Linglong was mentioned, Leng Qingyue's eyes dimmed slightly.

She pressed her face against Cao Kun's chest and said in a muffled voice, "I've met him. But... Master doesn't agree to us becoming Daoist partners."

She scolded me, saying that dual cultivation would shake my Dao heart and that I should not be entangled by romantic feelings.

Cao Kun almost burst out laughing when he heard this.

Good heavens, my cheap master is secretly jealous of his own disciple?

That's not a narrow perspective.

"It's alright." Cao Kun patted Leng Qingyue on the back, his tone gentle.

"The matter of finding a Daoist partner can wait for a long time."

"Your master is only thinking about your cultivation. Take it slow, and one day she will agree."

Leng Qingyue nodded obediently, her disappointment instantly soothed by Cao Kun's gentleness.

"However..." Cao Kun changed the subject, his hand slowly sliding down her waist and pinching a soft spot.

"Now that the cold poison has been cleared and your cultivation level has been broken, shouldn't Junior Sister pay some reward?"

Upon hearing this, Leng Qingyue's cheeks flushed red.

She closed her eyes shyly.

One hour later.

Just as Cao Kun was about to perform his hat trick.

A crisp notification sound suddenly rang in my mind.

[Ding! The Crimson Flame Spirit Beast has been detected to be less than 20 meters from its host!]

Cao Kun paused.

They arrived incredibly fast.

However, now that the audience is in place, the show naturally has to be performed well.

Cao Kun pulled Leng Qingyue up.

Leng Qingyue opened her eyes, her face full of confusion: "Senior Brother?"

"The spiritual energy in this room is too dull."

"You've just broken through, and your Ice Spirit Body needs to interact with the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, which is closer to nature. Let's go outside to cultivate."

Leng Qingyue was stunned.

Go outside?

In broad daylight, in the herb garden?

Although no one usually comes to this back mountain, this is just too much...

"But..." Leng Qingyue was still hesitating when Cao Kun had already led her out of the pavilion without giving her a chance to explain.

Outside the herb garden, in the shade of the canopy of a towering ancient tree.

Liu Rumeng concealed her aura and stared intently at the direction of the pavilion.

Seeing the door open, Cao Kun pulled Leng Qingyue out.

Liu Rumeng's eyes widened.

What is this old lecher trying to do?

The next second, she saw a scene that shattered her worldview.

Cao Kun sat down directly at the jade table in the courtyard, pulled Leng Qingyue into his arms, and kissed her.

Leng Qingyue struggled symbolically for a couple of moments before collapsing completely into Cao Kun's arms, letting him do as he pleased.

Liu Rumeng hid in the tree, her face as red as if it were about to bleed.

"Shameless! Vulgar! To do this in broad daylight..."

She gritted her teeth, wishing she could rush down and chop Cao Kun in half with a sword.

Just then, Cao Kun's fingertips twitched slightly.

A wisp of colorless and odorless beast-infused fragrance mingled in the air, spreading silently.

Immediately afterwards, Cao Kun activated the Chaos Return to One Technique within his body.

The domineering blazing energy burst forth from his body, colliding and merging with the extreme cold energy emanating from Leng Qingyue's body.

Yin and Yang, two completely different forces, intertwined in mid-air, turning into wisps of white mist that shrouded the figures of the two people in a hazy, indistinct manner.

A gentle breeze was blowing.

A wisp of white mist drifted toward the treetop where Liu Rumeng was hiding.

Liu Rumeng was about to turn around and leave, not wanting to see this eyesore anymore.

Suddenly, she trembled.

The wisp of white mist seeped into the body with each breath.

The originally calm Crimson Flame Spirit Body was like dry wood meeting a raging fire, instantly boiling over!

It's so hot!

Liu Rumeng clutched her chest tightly.

An unprecedented feeling of heat rose from his dantian and swept through his entire body.

Her legs went weak uncontrollably, and she could only barely stand by leaning against the rough tree trunk.

The radiant energy emanating from the sun held a fatal attraction for her crimson spirit body.

It's like a traveler who has been thirsty in the desert for three days and three nights suddenly seeing a clear spring.

Every cell in my body was screaming: Get closer to him! Absorb that power!

"What...what is this...?"

Liu Rumeng was panting heavily.

Fine beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.

She forcibly circulated her spiritual power, attempting to suppress this strange agitation.

However, the Crimson Flame Spirit was completely uncontrollable.

It greedily captures every wisp of the blazing sun's essence that drifts through the air.

My gaze pierced through the white mist.

Liu Rumeng clearly saw that Leng Qingyue was closing her eyes and greedily absorbing the spiritual energy that Cao Kun was transferring to her.

As spiritual energy surged in, Leng Qingyue's previously somewhat weak late-stage Foundation Establishment aura became visibly solid and substantial.

Liu Rumeng was stunned.

She finally understood why Leng Qingyue's cold poison could be cured.

Why was she able to break through in just a few days?

Why would my usually aloof and proud best friend be so devoted to this man?

This is not some kind of evil practice of sexual cultivation at all!

This is the ultimate method of dual cultivation!

That domineering and pure yang essence is simply the supreme tonic that all people with special constitutions dream of!

If... if I were the one absorbing that power...

The moment the thought crossed Liu Rumeng's mind, she broke out in a cold sweat.

I'm going crazy! What am I thinking?!

Reason finally prevailed over instinct.

She bit her lower lip hard until she tasted a hint of blood, at which point she barely regained a sliver of clarity.

I can't stay here any longer.

If she watched any longer, she feared she wouldn't be able to resist rushing down, pushing Leng Qingyue aside, and taking her place.

Liu Rumeng turned around with difficulty, preparing to slip away quietly.

Just as she turned around...

Cao Kun stopped what he was doing, casually raised his head, and looked through the layers of white mist, his gaze landing precisely on the treetop where Liu Rumeng was hiding.

Eyes facing each other.

Liu Rumeng's heart skipped a beat.

"Thump!"

We've been discovered?!

Liu Rumeng held her breath, not daring to move an inch.

impossible!

She immediately dismissed the guess in her mind.

This method of concealing one's breath is one of the top secret techniques of Hundred Flowers Peak.

Even a cultivator at the early stage of the Golden Core realm would not be able to detect her presence unless she used her spiritual power.

How could Cao Kun, a mere late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator, possibly see through it?

It must be a coincidence.

He just glanced at it casually.

Liu Rumeng tried to comfort herself.

But the oppressive feeling from that one glance was like a mountain pressing down on my heart.

She dared not linger any longer. Suppressing the heat within her body, she activated her secret technique and fled from Lianxiang Peak as if her life depended on it.

They returned to their cave dwelling.

Liu Rumeng stumbled and pushed open the stone door, then activated the formation to its maximum power.

She leaned against the cold stone door, panting heavily.

The once flowing, fiery red gauze dress was now completely soaked with cold sweat, clinging damply to her stunning curves.

"Damn it... damn it..."

Liu Rumeng walked to the jade bed and sat down cross-legged.

She forced herself to close her eyes, hoping to calm her restless mind through meditation.

Kefu is an annual product, but it's completely useless.

Whenever I close my eyes, all I can see in my mind is that scene I saw outside the herb garden.

……

"call--"

Liu Rumeng opened her eyes in frustration.

The restlessness within me not only did not subside, but instead showed a tendency to intensify.

She looked down at her trembling hands.

What lingers in my mind is Cao Kun's last glance at the treetop.
