"Damn it!"
Jian Xue was so angry that she stomped her feet, wishing she could rush up and chop this bastard to pieces. It was shameful for the Jade Sword Hall Master to make such a shameful request.
What's more, he was rejected.
Afterwards, he said it was a joke.
Who could stand this?
Jianxue immediately drew her sword, intending to kill him to silence him.
As long as Lu Chen is killed, no one will know what happened.
Lu Chen was startled.
"Senior sister, don't be anxious. Put down your sword and let's talk things out!"
Lu Chen retreated repeatedly, saying anxiously, "Senior Sister, you're being unreasonable. I was just testing your sincerity. Now it seems you don't like me, so why force yourself to agree to cultivate with me?"
"You...shut up!"
The anger in Jian Xue's heart had not yet been extinguished.
"Senior sister, I just don't want you to suffer. I don't care about myself anymore. When you're willing and can't help yourself, then we can do *that*, wouldn't that be better?"
Lu Chen looked like he was thinking of the other person, which made Jian Xue hesitate for a moment.
This guy is a bit shameless, but what he said is indeed true.
Deep down, Jianxue was unwilling to lower herself to do such a thing, but in order to break through her cultivation, she couldn't care less about that.
But Lu Chen directly exposed this hidden truth, which only embarrassed her, but also touched her heart.
She was indeed unwilling.
"I'm doing this for your own good, Senior Sister Jianxue. Think about it, what do I want from you? If I only wanted your body, I would have agreed already. Why would I say something like this?"
Lu Chen continued to deceive.
Sure enough, Jianxue was completely convinced by this point.
Lu Chen seized the opportunity decisively and said, "Senior Sister, please forgive my bluntness, but your martial arts heart is not firm! This may be the reason why you are not as good as the Hall Master of the Heavenly Sword Hall!"
If this weren't mentioned, things would be fine, but as soon as Jianyu was brought up, Jianxue frowned deeply and her expression turned cold.
"Go on!"
Lu Chen sighed and said cautiously, "Do you think Senior Sister Jianyu would be willing to give up everything, even her chastity, for the sake of cultivation breakthrough?"
These words struck a chord deep within Jianxue's heart.
She almost broke down completely.
That's tantamount to accusing her of selling her body for cultivation!
For a moment, Jianxue was speechless.
Lu Chen added insult to injury, saying, "Even if you get what you want, it will cause irreparable damage to your mental state. If your mental state is not perfected, it may become your inner demon that you can never get rid of in this lifetime. It's not worth it!"
Jianxue suddenly realized.
This time, she agreed with Lu Chen's statement.
That's true.
Lowering her pride to cultivate with Lu Chen might indeed allow her to break through, but in the future, she might never catch up with Jian Yu.
Jian Xue gave Lu Chen a deep look before finally sheathing her sword.
Lu Chen breathed a long sigh of relief and then said, "Senior Sister Jianxue, you must understand that the path of cultivation requires a steadfast heart, unwavering determination, following one's true nature, never giving up, and not relying on external things to achieve anything!"
These words were like a wake-up call, making Jianxue suddenly understand.
"Sigh, I understood this principle before, but maybe I'm just too impatient now!" Jian Xue sighed, looked at Lu Chen who was being cautious, and suddenly smiled, her expression gradually becoming gentle.
"Thank you for your guidance, Junior Brother Jianchen. You have a remarkable ability to stay true to yourself, resist temptations, and treat me with such sincerity. I should thank you properly!" Jianxue's words came from the bottom of her heart.
She finds Lu Chen pleasing to the eye no matter what she does now.
Imagine a junior brother who is so talented and handsome, yet he can still harden his heart and refuse when faced with such a beautiful woman throwing herself at him, analyzing the pros and cons.
Be quick to help others in their time of need and think from their perspective.
It's really hard to dislike someone with this kind of character.
Lu Chen was extremely pleased with himself.
"Look, she should thank us!"
With a serious expression, Lu Chen said helplessly, "To be honest, Senior Sister, I almost couldn't resist just now. How many people in the world could refuse such a request from a peerless beauty like you? But then I thought, I can't ruin Senior Sister's Dao heart for my momentary pleasure! I can't be so selfish!"
Jianxue was genuinely moved when she heard this.
"Junior brother, it's not your fault, it was your senior sister who was too impulsive!" Jian Xue stepped forward, took Lu Chen's hand, and said softly, "There's plenty of time in the future, your senior sister won't be so harsh on you again!"
Lu Chen was secretly pleased, but on the surface he said seriously, "If Senior Sister wants to surpass the Sword Language Hall Master, she needs to be more determined in her martial arts, not be swayed by external things, and strengthen her inner resolve. I will often test you, and for Senior Sister's sake, I will not shirk my duty!"
"Um!"
Jian Xue smiled gently, clearly quite fond of this junior brother.
The opportunity has arrived.
Lu Chen immediately revealed his true intentions, and suddenly said with a wicked smile, "Senior sister, you are so gentle. I like you more and more. Can I kiss you?"
"don't want!"
Jian Xue quickly shook her head and refused, saying, "I'm not ready yet. Hehe, are you testing me again?"
[Confession of love rejected, reward: 1 superior-grade spirit sword!]
Lu Chen was overjoyed.
"Senior sister finally understands. Alright, actually, improving strength doesn't necessarily mean not relying on external tools. You can also believe in the sword in your own hand!"
