However, on the other hand, Yue Yuan suddenly felt a little envious of the thrill of publicly displaying affection and making all the single people around him green with envy.
Although he has always been single, it's actually because he chooses not to look for a partner; it's not that he can't find one.
Yue Yuan was very popular among the female cultivators in the Loose Cultivator City.
He was handsome and dashing, with a gentle and refined demeanor. As the eldest disciple of the Pill Ancestor and a Nascent Soul Dao Lord himself, he possessed extraordinary cultivation, making him a typical male cultivator who would attract the attention of girls.
Moreover, his own master would often drag him out and use his male charm to lure junior brothers and sisters into the sect!
Yue Yuan pondered, if he also had a Daoist partner, his master would surely not do such a thing again, right?
That's settled then. Once he's done with this, he'll find a girlfriend too!
Tong Su had no idea how much of a blow a public display of affection would be to single people. At that moment, she was following Tian Xuanzi to the mansion he had bought in the City of Loose Cultivators.
"I've already taken a master, so I can stay at the Alchemy Pavilion or the Weapon Forging Workshop. Residences in the Loose Cultivator City are extremely expensive. Why do you need to spend so much money to buy this, Senior Brother?"
Tong Su found it somewhat strange. Tian Xuanzi leaned against the headboard and lazily asked, "If I come, where can I stay?"
"An inn." She answered without hesitation.
Tian Xuanzi glanced at her sideways. Tong Su looked embarrassed and said, "It's not like I can't afford the spirit stones for the residences in the loose cultivator city. Why go to a place where nobody knows who has lived? But Tong, I haven't settled the score with you properly since our previous business was interrupted."
His voice was casual, low and slightly hoarse, making her ears tingle. Tongsu took his hand in a flattering manner and shook it, saying, "I'm not in seclusion."
"You didn't even tell your senior brother before you went into seclusion?"
He chuckled softly, and with a flick of his wrist, Tong Su, caught off guard, cried out in surprise as he pulled her over. He flipped her over and pinned her to the bed, propping himself up on one arm, looking down at her with a smile on his lips.
Tong Su tensed up, looking into his dark eyes, her heart pounding wildly. She asked anxiously, "What are you doing?"
Tian Xuanzi was much taller than her. He leaned over and pressed her down onto the soft bed. She couldn't even struggle. He grabbed her wrist and pulled it to the headboard, staring at her warily.
He made no further excessive moves, purifying the demonic energy and removing its malevolent aura. After calming it down, he carefully probed into her meridians: "Don't move. Let me see how your cultivation has progressed this time."
When it came to serious matters, Tong Su didn't dare to move around. She let him explore her meridians, obediently lying on the bed, lost in her own thoughts.
He carried a faint scent of snow, aloof and arrogant. Others might perceive this as coldness and unapproachability, but only she knew that beneath his fierce and unruly exterior lay a truly gentle heart.
"Senior brother," she whispered, "when you took me back to the mountain, why did you accept me as your junior sister instead of your disciple?"
He said slowly, "If I take you as my apprentice, how will I ever get close to you?"
She was both amused and exasperated: "But I was so young back then, how could you have known we would end up together?"
Tian Xuanzi raised his eyes. His eyes were long and sharp, with dark and deep pupils that were dangerous yet alluring. Sometimes, when he looked at people, he gave them a feeling of being sucked into an abyss from which they would never return.
“Ah Tong, many times, there is no such thing as knowing or not knowing a method of judgment. Those who cultivate the Tao defy the heavens. What seems unreasonable to ordinary people is only known to themselves.” He said calmly, “There are some things you don’t understand yet.”
