Qin Luo stared at her intently for a moment, and then, spiritual energy suddenly appeared in his palm, instantly and accurately capturing the spiritual value token that Huang Lu had secretly hidden behind her back.
His eyes narrowed, and his divine sense probed into the spirit value plate. Upon probing, he discovered that there were as many as 2.2 million spirit values inside.
Witnessing this scene, Huang Lu looked flustered, her lips slightly parted, and she stammered:
"Luo Lang, I, I..."
"I just feel that my current life is okay, so there's no need to be too extravagant. That's why I'm thinking of saving up so that I can help you if you need it in the future."
As Huang Lu spoke, she became increasingly less confident, her voice growing softer and softer. In the end, she drooped her head, her head bowed, and she didn't dare to look Qin Luo in the eye.
"Accumulating? No wonder the spiritual value on this spiritual value tablet is accumulating more and more. It seems you've spent a lot of energy on this, which is probably the key reason why you've been unable to break through to the Spirit Control Realm for so long, right?"
Huang Lu dared not explain any further and could only desperately restrain herself, trying to calm her involuntary, slightly trembling body.
But the gradually emerging mist revealed her helplessness at this moment.
However, just as she was about to burst into tears, a pair of strong arms gently pulled her into their embrace.
In an instant, that familiar and haunting scent completely overwhelmed her, giving her a long-lost sense of peace and security.
Qin Luo sighed softly, rested his chin on Huang Lu's head, and softened his tone slightly:
“Lu’er, I’m not blaming you, but I feel sorry for you for thinking so much about me. The path of cultivation is inherently difficult, and you shouldn’t let these external things delay your own cultivation.”
“I’m giving you spiritual points so that you can live more comfortably and have more energy to improve yourself, not so that you can rack your brains to accumulate spiritual points.”
After saying that, Qin Luo gently stroked Huang Lu's back, gradually calming her trembling body.
Huang Lu nestled tenderly in that warm and strong embrace, nodding slightly. Her lips parted slightly, and she spoke in an almost murmured voice:
"Luo Lang, Lu'er will never do this again. She will obey and dare not let it cause any more trouble."
Upon hearing this, Qin Luo moved his hand in front of her, his slender fingers brushing aside a few slightly disheveled strands of hair, a playful smile playing on his lips.
"Lu'er, do you still remember the words I said when I left?"
Upon hearing this, Huang Lu's fair face instantly flushed red, revealing her shyness.
Her delicate body trembled slightly, and she buried her face in his arms with endless shyness. After a long while, her soft, melodious voice finally escaped her lips:
"I remember, I remember~"
Her voice was as faint as a mosquito's buzz, yet it could be clearly heard in the quiet room, overflowing with a young girl's shyness and longing for her lover.
......
The next morning, as dawn broke, soft sunlight streamed through the cracks in the window and quietly illuminated the room.
Despite her discomfort, Huang Lu gently slipped the long robe onto Qin Luo's arms and carefully helped him put it on. She then meticulously adjusted the robe on his back and shoulders to ensure it was smooth and even.
Throughout the entire process, her gentle gaze never left Qin Luo, and every subtle movement was filled with love for him.
“I have already said that you don’t need to worry about these things. You are not feeling well right now, so you should rest and recuperate.”
Looking at Huang Lu's busy and tired figure, Qin Luo felt a pang of pity and couldn't help but try to dissuade her.
Huang Lu simply shook her head slightly and responded softly:
"Luo Lang, serving you is something Lu'er does willingly, so what does this little discomfort matter? As long as I can do something small for you, Lu'er will be overjoyed."
After saying that, she picked up the comb again and gently combed Qin Luo's somewhat messy hair.
After tidying up Qin Luo's appearance, Huang Lu slowly stood up, but a wave of dizziness hit her and she swayed.
Qin Luo reacted quickly, reaching out to support her, his brows furrowed.
"Look at you, you're so tired, yet you're still so stubborn."
Huang Lu leaned against Qin Luo's chest, forcing a smile onto her face:
"Don't worry, Luo Lang. Perhaps she got up too quickly. Lu'er will be fine after a rest."
After carefully helping her onto the bed, Qin Luo tenderly reached out and gently stroked her delicate cheek.
Huang Lu understood immediately. She turned her face slightly to the side and gently pressed her cheek against Qin Luo's palm, closing her eyes quietly so that her lover could caress her more comfortably.
At the same time, a jade-like hand slowly rose from the side and covered the back of Qin Luo's hand.
Those slender fingers curled slightly, as if expressing unspeakable emotions, or silently conveying the reluctance to part.
The two remained silent for a long time before Qin Luo finally broke the warm atmosphere.
"I know that even if I tell you not to conserve your spiritual points, given your personality, you'll probably still find it hard to bring yourself to squander them in the end."
"But you need to know that if you don't work hard to improve your own strength, how can you stay by my side in the future? Does Lu'er really want to be just a pretty face for decoration?"
Upon hearing this, Huang Lu's beautiful eyes widened as she stared intently at Qin Luo.
Deep in her heart, she secretly believed that her only destiny and the role she could play in this life was to remain silently hidden behind the scenes like a shadow, only able to quietly absorb the warm afterglow emanating from him in solitude, so as to comfort her heart that was burning for him.
"Luo Lang, are you... are you telling the truth?"
"I always thought that as long as I could silently protect you and offer you comfort when you were tired or in need, that would be the most perfect ending in my life. I never thought I could have such an important position."
"Don't worry, you won't have to wait too long for this day. But the premise is that you have to improve your strength as soon as possible, otherwise I can't be too biased when they 'bully' you."
After saying that, Qin Luo withdrew her hand, tidied the stray hairs on his forehead again, and then left amidst his lingering gaze.
"Alas, a land of beauties, a graveyard for heroes!"
With a sigh, Qin Luo also flashed away, flying towards the distant horizon.
After Qin Luo left, in the quiet room, Huang Lu raised her hand and gently stroked his cheek, which still retained warmth. His parting words seemed to still echo in the empty room.
Thinking of this, the gentle waves in her beautiful eyes, which were already like autumn water, became even more tender and affectionate.
After a moment, Huang Lu bit her lower lip slightly, forcibly suppressing her exhaustion, slowly sat cross-legged, closed her eyes and concentrated, and began her cultivation.
