"Woof woof woof." (Someone's coming.)
Lu Tao, who was cultivating, frowned when he heard the big black dog's voice. He thought it was someone else in town looking for him, but when he went outside, he found a woman in colorful clothes riding up on horseback.
For some reason, Lu Tao had a feeling that the woman was up to no good as soon as he saw her.
"Little brother, are you Lu Tao?"
As the woman in colorful clothes dismounted from her horse in front of the courtyard, whether intentionally or unintentionally, a glimpse of fair skin was faintly revealed at her waist, which was extremely eye-catching in the twilight and immediately attracted Lu Tao's attention.
Lu Tao laughed and said, "The younger brother is not small, but the older sister is quite big."
"Oh my, I didn't expect him to be such a little pervert."
The woman in colorful clothes looked at Lu Tao with great interest and said, "Little brother, do you like your big sister? As long as you give me your things, I can grant you any wish."
When she spoke of any wish, the woman in colorful clothes spoke with a flirtatious tone, even revealing a hint of shyness.
It seemed that as long as Lu Tao handed over the item, she could grant him any wish, even the indescribable things suppressed by the River Crab Emperor.
"Okay, what does sister want?"
Lu Tao's face was full of smiles as he admired the alluring eyes of the woman in colorful clothes, and he readily agreed.
The woman in colorful clothes was somewhat surprised, seemingly not expecting it to be so simple, and said softly, "A spiritual herb, the Dust-Clearing Herb."
Upon hearing this, Lu Tao immediately showed a regretful expression and said, "Sister, it's such a pity. The Dust-Removing Grass was destroyed by Jiang Xiong of the Axe Gang. That bastard would rather destroy the spiritual grass than leave it for me. It's really hateful."
After saying that, Lu Tao looked indignant.
"you……"
Upon hearing this, the woman in colorful clothes paused in her seductive manner, her expression gradually darkening. She said, "Little brother, are you not planning to give the Dust-Removing Grass to your older sister?"
Lu Tao shrugged innocently and said, "How could I dare to lie to my sister? If you don't believe me, you can go to the mountain road behind the Axe Gang and take a look. Only a day has passed. If you search carefully, you should be able to find some traces of grass juice."
"So, because you eliminated the Axe Gang, the Dust-Cleansing Herb was destroyed?"
The woman in colorful clothes changed her expression even faster than Lu Tao comprehended the technique; her face instantly turned completely cold, and she became somewhat unreasonable.
Lu Tao shrugged, speechless, and said, "Even if I don't eliminate the Axe Gang, do you think you'll get the Dust-Removing Grass?"
The woman in colorful clothes was taken aback.
She knew, of course, that if Lu Tao didn't attack the Axe Gang, Shen Guangxi would never write to her; he would only try to obtain the spiritual herbs himself.
However, she was very unwilling to give up. She traveled all the way to Dafeng Town, only to find that she had gained nothing.
However, since we can't get the Dust-Clearing Grass, getting Lu Tao will make the trip worthwhile.
The woman in colorful clothes immediately changed her expression again, and said with a smile, "How about the little brother comes with me?"
Lu Tao was stunned, not expecting such a change. This woman no longer cared about the matter of the Dust-Removing Grass, but instead wanted him to go with her.
Lu Tao couldn't help but ask curiously, "Where are we going?"
"Red Flower Valley".
What place is that?
The woman in colorful clothes, exuding allure, said softly, "That's a paradise for men and a sanctuary for women."
Lu Tao blinked, puzzled, before hesitatingly asking, "A dual cultivation sect?"
"That's right, little brother, do you like it?"
The woman in colorful clothes smiled and invited, "There are countless beautiful women like you there. As long as you want, they can be inseparable from you, making you feel like you're in heaven and experiencing the ultimate bliss."
Upon hearing this, Lu Tao felt his blood boiling.
The Blood Refining Realm truly intensifies one's desires; the transformation of one's blood and qi even stirred up waves in his heart, despite his unwavering martial arts resolve.
"Huh, little brother's cultivation is actually so profound, already reaching the mid-stage of the Blood Refining Realm?"
Only then did the woman in colorful clothes realize that Lu Tao's cultivation level was not at the early stage of Blood Refinement. For a moment, she was filled with doubt and uncertainty.
It's unclear whether Lu Tao had been concealing his cultivation level beforehand, or whether he made a breakthrough after eliminating the Axe Gang.
but.
In either case, she would not let Lu Tao go; she had to get to know the secret Lu Tao possessed.
A seventeen-year-old boy, in just a few days, actually advanced from the early stage of Skin Refining to the mid stage of Blood Refining. Such talent is simply heaven-defying.
In the hundreds of years of history of Red Flower Valley, this has never happened before.
If she obtains Lu Tao's secret, she can not only quickly break through to the Innate Realm, but may even be able to challenge the peak of the Martial God Realm.
Now that Lu Tao is in the middle stage of Blood Refinement, it's just right. If his cultivation level were any higher, she wouldn't be able to suppress it.
Just as she was daydreaming, Lu Tao refused, saying, "I'm sorry, I can't go."
The woman in colorful clothes frowned. "Why?"
Lu Tao said solemnly, "My heart is set on martial arts and I will not be tempted by worldly desires."
"Hehe, little brother, you're pretending to be so proper."
The woman in colorful clothes chuckled, then her face turned cold, and she said in a chilling voice, "Today, you have to go whether you like it or not."
Before Lu Tao could even speak, she turned and flew forward, her long sword aimed straight at Lu Tao's chest, showing no mercy.
Late stage of Blood Refining.
Lu Tao sensed the woman's cultivation level, took out his longsword, and slashed at the longsword.
when!
Swords clashed, their clanging sharp and piercing.
The two parted ways immediately upon touching.
"Eighth-tier, low-grade?"
The woman in colorful clothes was shocked. She never expected that Lu Tao would have an eighth-tier weapon. Shen Guangxi's letter had not mentioned such things.
Just as the woman in colorful clothes was surprised, Lu Tao had already put on the iron armor, which shocked her even more. "How do you have eighth-level iron armor? Did you obtain a cave dwelling?"
Lu Tao had no time to answer the woman's question. He used his Wind Step technique to close the distance and launch a fierce attack.
"My brother is so heartless; he doesn't care about his sister at all."
The woman fought with Lu Tao, and didn't forget to use her charm to influence Lu Tao's emotions.
To her disappointment, Lu Tao remained completely unmoved; his previous demeanor seemed to have been an act.
This made her even angrier and made her doubt her own charm.
Boom...
Both were at the Blood Refining Realm, using their Qi and Blood to circulate their cultivation techniques. Their blades and swords shone brightly, creating astonishing destructive power. As soon as they clashed, Lu Tao's courtyard was destroyed.
Several houses collapsed into ruins.
when!
Another clang of metal rang out, and to the woman's surprise and anger, several cracks appeared on her ninth-grade superior longsword in a short period of time.
Her attacks were either dodged by Lu Tao or landed on the armor and were blocked by him, so they did not cause him much damage.
"Damn it."
The woman in colorful clothes cursed under her breath. Relying on her higher cultivation level than Lu Tao, she had intended to forcibly capture him and obtain his secrets, but little did she know that Lu Tao's equipment was so much better than hers.
The woman was soon covered in bruises.
escape.
After some probing, the woman realized she couldn't do anything to Lu Tao and had no choice but to run away, otherwise she might be left behind.
After blocking Lu Tao's attacks, the woman in colorful clothes turned and fled towards the back mountain.
She dared not escape from Dafeng Town, fearing that she would be stopped by other Blood Refinement Realm cultivators in Dafeng Town. If she were surrounded, she would probably die here.
"Wasn't my sister supposed to be inseparable from her brother? Why did she run off?"
Lu Tao used his movement skills to chase after him, fighting while still making sarcastic remarks.
"You...you're despicable."
The woman in colorful clothes gritted her teeth in anger. She had tried to distract Lu Tao with words before, but now she was being distracted by him. She said weakly, "Little brother, why don't you let me go? You've hurt me."
"Did it hurt? Then won't your sister like it even more?"
“You’re not Lu Tao at all. A seventeen-year-old boy wouldn’t understand any of this. You must be possessed by some old monster.” The woman in colorful clothes said with some regret.
She finally discovered Lu Tao's secret, but this secret filled her with remorse.
If she had known it was an old monster possessing her body, she would never have rushed to her death.
"Now that you know my secret, then leave your lives behind," Lu Tao said in a deep voice.
His voice sounded a little young, not old.
laugh!
A sharp blade of light flashed past, instantly slashing towards the woman in colorful clothes on the back.
The woman in colorful clothes had no time to dodge and had to turn around to defend herself.
With a soft "pfft".
The sword light was shattered by the blade's edge, then struck the longsword. With a clang, the longsword trembled slightly, and the woman's figure froze.
Taking advantage of the opportunity, Lu Tao moved closer and slashed out with his sword again.
The woman in colorful clothes had nowhere to hide and could only swing her sword to defend herself.
Click.
A crisp snapping sound rang out, and the longsword in the woman's hand was instantly severed by a single blow. The longsword continued its momentum, slashing straight at the woman's body.
"ah……"
The woman cried out in surprise, and with a quick movement, she barely dodged the knife.
Before she could escape, Lu Tao attacked again with a slash.
"Please spare my life, senior!"
The woman was terrified and, while dodging, quickly said, "Senior, spare my life! I can serve you as your servant."
Seemingly afraid that Lu Tao wouldn't believe her, she added, "This humble woman can do anything and will definitely serve you comfortably, senior. You can use any means to control this humble woman, and she will never resist."
"I am not worthy of enjoying it."
Lu Tao remained unmoved and, taking advantage of the woman's inability to dodge, slashed her thigh with his knife.
In an instant, a long, white leg fell to the ground.
"Ah...no, don't kill me."
The woman was flustered, and the alluring look in her eyes made her appear somewhat pitiful.
Unfortunately, Lu Tao remained oblivious to all of this.
With a soft "pfft".
Having lost a leg, the woman was no longer able to dodge and was ultimately severed from the neck by Lu Tao's knife...
