I only seek to enjoy the present moment, regardless of dying in a foreign land tomorrow. With a blade in hand, I'll slay demons and men alike. "Ladies and gentlemen, please be on your way!&...
336 The Rise and Fall of the Royal City (Sixty-Four Chapters)
There was a hint of discrimination, a slight sense of resentment in my heart. If only I could absorb it freely too. I shook my head, trying to stop thinking about it.
After half an incense stick's time, Wei Lan, Fang Hua, Yun Yan, and Hua Yu all broke through their limits, and Wan Qingrou's aura became even more profound. Yun Su and the others also gained something.
The nameless wind around them gradually subsided, and the flying hair slowly emerged as the wind died down, appearing smooth and flowing, with a touch of sacred inviolability on her cheeks.
At this moment, the women's faces were as delicate as jade, smooth and perfect, their skin like crystal porcelain, smooth and lustrous.
They all felt as if every cell in their bodies was breathing, radiating vitality!
Upon closer inspection, it is moist and elastic, exuding a delicate and refreshing fragrance. The scent is like that of a newly blooming flower, both sweet and refreshing, making one want to gently approach.
Piaomiaoyue slowly opened her eyes, her gaze ethereal and pure. Looking at her lover, her eyes were filled with admiration and excitement.
The others woke up one after another. At that moment, they all felt a change in their bodies, as if they were bathing in a warm ocean.
Jingzhai softly praised, "With such abundant spiritual energy, cultivating here is indeed twice as effective with half the effort. It's comparable to the blessed lands of major sects."
Her beautiful eyes glanced repeatedly at her lover, filled with surprise, admiration, and a hint of excitement. She gently approached him and whispered, 'Shen Lang, you're truly amazing.'
After speaking, she glanced at the two people behind her, and without hesitation, gently took their hands. She whispered something in their voices.
The others quickly came to their senses; their lover was like that, there was no need to delve into it. Rou Rou, on the other hand, quickly moved around in the spiritual land, took out a jade shovel and a jade bottle, and carefully planted the dragon blood rice.
The women watched Yun Qing and her companion quietly, their faces flushed crimson. They lowered their heads gently.
However, the crowd simply smiled and gathered around.
They watched quietly as Rou Rou quickly and skillfully cultivated the spiritual herbs. It was simple yet not simple; her movements were swift and agile, and each seed was placed at just the right distance, instantly occupying half of the spiritual land.
Suddenly, a ray of green light shot out from where the dragon blood rice was planted, shooting straight up to three feet high.
The green light contained powerful life force and boundless vitality. After the green light dissipated, everyone was surprised to find that the seeds had begun to sprout and emerge from the ground.
Dragon blood rice should be red, but at this moment, what I see is a completely different scene. The tender shoots are like jade carvings, and the green is intoxicating.
It shimmered with a faint light, and as time went by, the tender bud grew rapidly, soon becoming a small tree about six feet tall.
The leaves, resembling thatch grass, are each a vibrant emerald green, shimmering with light. Intricate patterns are etched onto the leaves, lending them an air of mystery.
A powerful life force emanated from the leaves of the Dragon Blood Rice, absorbing the spiritual energy of the sacred land as if returning to its mother's embrace, recklessly absorbing the energy. Like ears of wheat, sprouts began to emerge, and then, clusters of small red flowers bloomed in full glory.
The women marveled at the sight, and Jingzhai was also astonished. Wei Lan and Fanghua couldn't help but cover their mouths in surprise as they watched the transformation. It was truly a miracle of nature.
While everyone was still in shock.
Suddenly, a gentle breeze blew by, bringing with it the buzzing of bees. He Chen looked surprised; the Heaven-Shielding Array had been activated, and no living being should be able to enter without permission.
He watched quietly, saying nothing, and secretly began to observe.
Uninvited was a bee wearing a small golden coat, about a foot tall, its antennae trembling slightly, its wings shimmering in the rich spiritual energy. Excited by the abundant spiritual energy, the little bee restlessly looked around.
In an instant, the dragon blood rice in front of it quickly attracted its attention, and it didn't even have time to pay attention to the women not far away.
In a flash, so fast that spatial distance seemed to cease to exist, he arrived in front of the Dragon Blood Rice and immediately got to work.
Busily flitting among the flowers, it occasionally stops on a blossom, using its slender mouthparts to sip the sweet nectar. The dragon's blood rice flower sways gently in the breeze, as if welcoming this uninvited guest.
The once quiet sanctuary has come alive with life.
Yun Su and Piao Miao Yue exchanged a glance, both seeing a lot of doubt in each other's eyes; they had never seen a bee before.
The women looked at each other, and Jingzhai and Hanlinling were also at a loss as to where it came from.
Han Linling's mind flashed, and she said in an uncertain tone, "I have never seen this bee before, but there are some records of it. People in the sect have heard that it appeared in a blessed land. But the cultivators there were very curious about it. Ordinary spirit beasts cannot enter freely. Out of curiosity, they prepared to catch it."
But its speed was incredibly fast. Like a darling of heaven and earth, it vanished in an instant, and since then, it has never been heard of again appearing in that blessed land.
The group exchanged glances and watched quietly without offering any further interference.
Rou Rou, Wan Qing, and Xi Xi were also quite surprising.
She whispered softly, "I've never seen a bee like this before. I've seen bees before, but never one this big."
Wanqing nodded. Xixi seemed lost in thought.
She approached her lover gently, her voice soft as an orchid, and said, "My love, may I place the peach tree that grows alongside yours here?"
A single, understated remark, without much explanation. Something that has been a constant companion for years, an extension of the body itself.
He nodded slightly in agreement.
Then, a fragrance wafted over me, and before I could escape, it gently brushed against my skin. A sudden, light kiss came and went quickly, leaving only a blissful feeling on my cheek, soft and warm.
She said softly and coquettishly, "I heard from Huayu that a lot of new clothes have come out recently. When I wear them out, you can tell me which one looks best."
Seeing such a bold move, they all blushed slightly, but didn't seem to care much. There were no elaborate ceremonies or flowery words; a gentle kiss, warmth and happiness—sometimes, it can be that simple and pure.
She gazed gently at her lover, her eyes filled with gratitude and, more importantly, his understanding. After all, blessed lands were rare, and the lineages of great sects all possessed blessed lands.
Only with a blessed land can one maintain their lineage and prevent a major break in transmission; otherwise, the time of generational disharmony will be a moment of life or death, as for the legendary pity.
In the face of inheritance, all pity is like a child carrying gold through a bustling market; when life and death are at stake, who will pity them, who will be soft-hearted?
With her heart made up, she gazed at her lover, gave a slight bow, and in her eyes was a sincere heart and a deep, unwavering commitment to entrust her life to him.
