Lu Xuening's four personal maids stood at the door of her room, their faces deathly pale. Suddenly, Lu Xuening's voice rang in their minds; she was transmitting her thoughts to her maids:
"Go and call Lu Ji, Lu Hang, Lu Feixing, and Lu Jinfeng here!"
Cui'er, Guo'er, Bao'er, and Juan'er were filled with anxiety and fear, but they dared not disobey Lu Xuening's orders. They immediately summoned the Nascent Soul stage guards that Lu Xuening had specifically named.
A short while later, Lu Ji, Lu Hang, Lu Feixing, and Lu Jinfeng arrived at Lu Xuening's room door, their eyes filled with doubt as they looked at the tightly closed door.
What is this woman trying to do now?
Lu Ji and the others didn't really want to be Lu Xuening's bodyguards. Everyone knew she was disliked by the family head, and being her bodyguard meant their future was ruined. Unless they could cultivate to the Void Refinement stage in their lifetime, they truly had no chance of advancement in the Lu family.
"Come in, everyone!"
Lu Ji and the others were puzzled by Lu Xuening's voice, which sounded softer and more alluring than usual. However, due to their master-servant relationship, they dared not rashly use their divine sense to look into the room. Lu Ji pushed open the door and entered, followed by Lu Hang, Lu Feixing, and Lu Jinfeng.
The room was draped with gauze curtains. When the curtains were lifted by magic, and they saw Lu Xuening lying naked on the bed and Xu Chong's corpse lying on the ground, who had been drained of his life force, their minds went blank.
She's gone mad! She's gone mad! This woman has gone mad!!
She's gone mad! Why did she have to drag them into this?!
After the initial shock, Lu Ji wanted to kill! Not only him, but Lu Hang, Lu Feixing, and Lu Jinfeng also thought so. Did they want to kill because of their loyalty to Lu Yunchuan or the Lu family? Of course not.
Because Lu Xuening did such a thing, they will all die with her, without a burial place.
If this gets out, they will all die.
Report this? You'll still die.
Even ordinary families know that family scandals should not be aired in public. How much more so the Lu family of Kunshan.
Reporting Lu Xuening would be pointless. Given the patriarch's personality, he would torture Lu Xuening to death, tearing her soul apart and refining her spirit, but he would also kill everyone who knew the truth to silence her, and even everyone on the ship.
None of them were core disciples, nor did they have powerful backers. If they did, they wouldn't be Lu Xuening's guards. Therefore, rather than casting some kind of curse to ensure they would never dare to reveal this matter again, the patriarch would almost certainly choose to simply turn them all into dead people—it would be much easier.
In a large family like the Lu family, the Nascent Soul stage is not worth much.
You bitch! Lu Xuening, that bitch!!
She wants to die, so why should they be buried with her?
Wasn't the deliberate act of letting them in to witness this scene just to make them suffer the same fate?
You slut! You slut! You slut!
Lu Ji, Lu Hang, Lu Feixing, and Lu Jinfeng all looked extremely grim. Lu Ji wanted to strangle Lu Xuening, but killing her now wouldn't change anything; she would die sooner rather than later. After all, she was the second young master's wife. If she died now, wouldn't the Lu family investigate?
Once this scandal is exposed, they will still have to pay the price.
"Hahahaha..."
Looking at Lu Ji and the others' expressions, Lu Xuening burst into laughter: "You've all seen it. You know what kind of person my father is. Once this matter is exposed, you'll all die."
Her tone turned cold and sharp, her gaze sweeping over Lu Ji and the other three, before looking at the trembling maids at the door.
“If this is exposed, we will all die together.”
"Second Young Madam, don't worry, I don't know anything," Lu Ji said through gritted teeth.
Lu Xuening looked at him and chuckled as she put on her clothes. While stroking her hair, she gave a charming order: "Throw the corpses off the ground, and then find me a handsome Golden Core cultivator, preferably one whose primordial yang hasn't been broken."
"What did you say?" Lu Ji's eyes widened.
Lu Hang, Lu Feixing, and Lu Jinfeng were also incredulous.
Lu Xuening laughed, "If you don't obey my orders, I can go myself. But if something happens to me and you fail to protect me properly, you'll still die! Hehe~"
She covered her mouth with one hand, her smile looking particularly innocent.
Lu Ji was so angry that her chest almost exploded. Lu Hang clenched his fist inside his sleeve. Lu Feixing and Lu Jinfeng glared at her.
"Oh, don't glare at me like that. I am still the young mistress of the Lu family. Even if my father hates me, I am still his daughter-in-law. By the way, I also have my mother, my husband, and my sixth brother protecting me. If anything happens to me, you will all be punished. And once they find out what I have done, you will all be silenced."
"For the sake of your lives, from now on you'd better listen to everything I say," Lu Xuening said fiercely.
Lu Ji and the others never imagined that one day they would be forced by a mere mid-Foundation Establishment cultivator, yet now they had no choice but to obey Lu Xuening's orders.
She's gone mad! This woman is truly insane! If we don't listen to her, she'll drag them all down with her.
Although her cultivation level was low, she was still the young mistress of the Lu family. Even though their cultivation levels were higher than hers, they wouldn't dare to do anything to her. If they tried to control her with magic, they would be digging their own grave once the mistress noticed her abnormality.
Lu Ji and the others could only accept their bad luck and had no choice but to help Lu Xuening capture rogue cultivators or cultivators from small sects so that she could use their sexual energy.
In just one month, Lu Xuening had consumed the essence of more than twenty cultivators. Her cultivation level finally rose from the mid-Foundation Establishment stage to the peak of the mid-Foundation Establishment stage.

Eastern Regions, Iron Horse City.
Iron Horse City is one of the four major cultivation cities in the Eastern Region. Iron Horse City covers an extremely vast area, spanning a full 100,000 li.
In the northern part of Iron Horse City, there are many markets that specialize in trading elixirs. A girl in a light green gauze dress and a boy in white walking side by side attracted a lot of attention.
The girl's face was veiled with a light gauze, and she held a jade flute in her fair left hand. Her figure was graceful, like that of a fairy.
The white-clad boy beside the girl appeared to be about twelve or thirteen years old, with jet-black hair, golden eyes, and handsome features. A cute little beast perched on his shoulder. He slightly raised his chin, his expression arrogant, his gaze sharp, and his entire being resembled a sword with its edge fully exposed.
After the girl and boy walked past, the crowd began to murmur among themselves.
"Were those Jade Flute Fairy and Sword Boy just now?" a Foundation Establishment stage female cultivator in red asked the person next to her.
The blue-clad man next to the red-clad female cultivator said:
"According to legend, the Jade Flute Fairy is dressed in green and veiled, holding a jade flute, accompanied by a sword attendant with black hair and golden eyes. She looks about twelve or thirteen years old, and it must be them."
In a teahouse not far away, everyone was watching the direction where the green-clad girl and the white-clad boy had left, talking about the green-clad fairy and the sword boy who had risen to fame ten years ago.
A young man in the Golden Core stage, dressed in a yellow robe, said to the person beside him:
"Ten years ago, the Blood Shadow Palace Master, Old Demon Hongyun, for some reason provoked Fairy Jade Flute and Sword Boy, and was killed by Fairy Jade Flute. Then Fairy Jade Flute and Sword Boy joined forces to attack Blood Shadow Palace, and all the experts of Blood Shadow Palace died, and the low-level disciples either died or fled."
