Chapter 73: The Frail Beauty Whose Life Was Extended by the Immortal Cultivator (28)
Qiuhen Palace.
"Master, is there anything I need to do?"
His gaze, as calm as the still water of a deep pool, slowly turned and fell on her beautiful and charming face. Under the ruthless surface, there was an undercurrent.
Under such a heart-wrenching gaze, Qingwu couldn't help but feel a little uneasy.
Qingwu seemed a little uneasy when being stared at like that.
After a long time, a cold voice sounded.
"There's a naturally formed hot spring in the back of the mountain. It contains the power to cleanse the marrow and nourish the body. It's a perfect place for you right now. Go and soak in it."
Upon hearing this, Qing Wu was slightly stunned. Just like that?
He was silent. Before this, she had heard many rumors about cultivating immortals, all of which said that this path seemed to be very promising, but in fact it was extremely difficult.
How come the seemingly ruthless master was so kind to her when she just became his disciple? He even arranged a cave for her and gave her a marrow-cleansing hot spring bath.
Qingwu still had an impression of the Marrow Cleansing Spring in her mind.
She clearly remembered that when Xiao Yuheng told her about the various things in their Wansheng Sect, he had specifically mentioned the number one person in Wansheng Sect - the Immortal Qiu Hen.
It is said that there is a magical natural hot spring hidden in the back mountain of the cave where this immortal lives.
This hot spring can cleanse the body and mind. Even mortals with no foundation in cultivation can gain great benefits by soaking in it.
At that time, Xiao Yuheng also said that if he had the chance, he would definitely go to the Immortal Master Qiu Hen to plead with Qing Wu to allow her to soak in it for a while.
Unexpectedly, Qingwu was realized today, and it was not Xiao Yuheng's request, but Bai Qiulan's voluntary offering.
Qingwu smiled and said, "Thank you, Master."
After hearing this, Bai Qiulan's narrow and deep eyes moved slightly, but in the end he did not say a word.
On the top of the mountain, surrounded by clouds and mist, it is like a dream.
Bai Qiulan's clothes fluttered, like a god descending to earth.
He stood straight, his face was stern, his eyes were as deep as cold stars, and he faintly revealed a kind of bone-deep indifference, as if nothing in this world could arouse his attention or interest.
On the edge of a steep cliff, Bai Qiulan stood with his hands behind his back, looking down at the hot spring shrouded in steam below from a condescending attitude.
...and the beauty among them.
The rising water vapor is like smoke and fog, spreading like a veil.
The beauty's skin is whiter than snow, and her black hair is like a waterfall. She is faintly visible in the warm spring water, like a delicate flower blooming in a deep pool, and her every move reveals her charm and grace.
Bai Qiulan thought that there was only the endless avenue in his heart.
Even though the hot spring in front of him, filled with mist and heat, was so fragrant and charming, it could not shake or melt his heart, which had long been tempered like a rock by the cold and ruthless way.
But the fact is——
In Bai Qiulan's originally cold eyes, a slight ripple gradually appeared.
These waves were weak at first, but as time went on, they became more and more turbulent, and finally formed a huge storm like a raging sea.
A dazzling red light flashed across Bai Qiulan's eyes.
Then, a voice filled with evil charm suddenly sounded: "—You want her too, right?"
The voice seemed to contain a kind of subtle bewitching power, mixed with a hint of undisguised sarcasm.
It was as if they were mocking and ridiculing the usually arrogant and sanctimonious high-ranking woman unscrupulously and mercilessly.
"Shut up." Bai Qiulan pretended not to hear anything. Like a cold sculpture, he still stood steadily in the same place, without even a trace of expression on his face.
His eyes, as deep as a pool of water, were fixed on the beautiful woman in the center of the hot spring from beginning to end.
"Hahahahahahaha, don't you, Bai Qiulan, claim to be a high and mighty immortal who is untainted by the mundane world? You actually want to do something inappropriate under the guise of master and disciple."
"I really want to let those who worship Qiu Hen Immortal Venerable take a good look at this. The Qiu Hen Immortal Venerable, who they think is extraordinary, noble and flawless, would actually take someone else's wife as his disciple and bring her into his territory just to get her..."
Bai Qiulan turned a deaf ear at first, until Mo Yujin mentioned "someone else's wife" -
An unprecedented surge of resentment surged in Bai Qiulan's heart. He frowned slightly, his eyes flashing with obvious displeasure as he retorted, "Those so-called rituals of the mortal world are nothing to us cultivators."
"Besides... Xiao Yuheng and the others were just using sweet words to deceive me. I watched Ah Wu grow up, so she should belong to me."
"Humph, wouldn't it have been over if you had just admitted it earlier? Last time, I was so close to embracing my sweetheart, if you hadn't stopped me..."
"It belongs to me, not you, Mo Yujin, you should disappear."
"Bai Qiulan, why don't you admit it now? You are me and I am you."
"You and I are of the same origin. In order to cultivate the ruthless way, you ruthlessly eliminated all the desires deep in your heart. It is because of this that I am now an independent being."
Bai Qiulan seemed speechless after hearing these words, but Mo Yujin did not give up and continued to press on, "Besides, no matter what, I am a part of you. You can't completely erase me."
"Especially since you had Awu, you've regained your desires, and as your desires continue to grow, my power has become stronger and stronger. Before, when you existed, your dominance was so strong that I couldn't wake up, but now, I can talk to you. What does this mean?"
Seeing Bai Qiulan remained silent, Mo Yujin didn't waste any more words. He just raised the corner of his mouth, revealing an increasingly evil smile.
Who would have thought that the Demon Lord who is feared by the world and the Immortal Lord who is respected by everyone are actually the same person. Isn’t that funny?
As for Awu - that naturally depends on their own abilities. Once he takes over the body, he can naturally take over Awu as well.
At that time, Bai Qiulan could no longer stop him!
