Chapter Thirty-Six: Master, Do You Like Me?
So beautiful!
Everyone stared intently at the woman.
The man the woman was holding glared fiercely at everyone, unleashing his aura. Only then did the crowd realize that both of them were at the Golden Core stage. Instantly, everyone was too frightened to look up.
"Honglang, you scared them," the woman said coquettishly.
The man in black robes said softly, "If it weren't for your kindness, I would have killed these toads." His murderous aura sent shivers down everyone's spines.
"Alright! Honglang, let's go rest! We'll have a superior room, waiter."
The waiter hurriedly prepared the best room for the seemingly Golden Core stage Daoist couple. As soon as they entered the room, after setting up a protective barrier, they began to undress. However, they had only gone halfway when the alluring woman suddenly lost control of her body and struck the Golden Core stage male cultivator through the chest with a single blow. The man's eyes widened in disbelief.
He fell down and became a corpse.
The alluring woman who had killed someone was not pleased; instead, she looked furious and exasperated: "Ancestor, why?"
"I told you, you must abstain from sex now."
Su Rumei said angrily, "I didn't want to do the sexual cultivation in the first place, but you forced me to. Now that I'm addicted, you won't let me do it anymore. What kind of nonsense is this?"
"The second level of the 'Charming Maiden Technique' requires the use of a 'replenishing vessel' for cultivation, and the fourth level requires abstinence. You must use desire to control others, not desire to control yourself."
"No, I can't take it anymore, I can't take it anymore!" Su Rumei cried out. She hadn't been with a man for two months, and she felt like she was going crazy.
"This is a necessary step in your spiritual journey."
"Ancestor, I don't understand, I don't understand! We were doing well in the Qingyun Sect, why did you have to scheme against our master? Now we're like stray dogs, hiding everywhere, and you're even forcing me to abstain from sex. I'm going crazy!" Su Rumei said excitedly.
The Heavenly Enchantress and Xie Yun have always had a relationship of mutual exploitation and scheming; it's normal for them to turn against each other at any time. In Han Wei's previous life, the internal strife within the Qingyun Sect was also due to the Heavenly Enchantress's scheming against Xie Yun.
In Han Wei's previous life, after Xie Yun obtained the Wind Dragon Ring, he also received a cultivation technique called "Tai Chi Qing Xuan Gong" from the Heavenly Enchantress. This technique originated from the Upper Realm and was extraordinary, which made Xie Yun very happy.
However, he was also afraid that the Heavenly Demon Mother would plot against him, so he was very cautious in his cultivation at the beginning. But because he had progressed from the early stage of Nascent Soul to the late stage of Nascent Soul in just a few years, he disregarded any traps and plunged headlong into the cultivation technique.
Afterwards, they expanded their territory rapidly, and Qingyun Sect quickly became the largest power in the Southern Region, with more than a dozen Nascent Soul cultivators. Unexpectedly, the Heavenly Demon Mother secretly colluded with these dozen or so Nascent Soul elders and revealed the flaws in Xie Yun's cultivation technique to them, causing internal strife within Qingyun Sect.
In this life, because Gu Qi and Han Wei seriously injured Xie Yun and Tianmei Shengmu respectively, they were so frightened that they hid away for twenty years.
However, because Gu Qi and Han Wei were living in seclusion on Chang Le Island, what was bound to happen still happened.
After keeping a low profile for more than twenty years, Xie Yun finally began to expand his territory. Forty years later, the Heavenly Demon Mother plotted against him just like in her previous life. When the Qingyun Sect was in chaos, the Heavenly Demon Mother and Su Rumei escaped.
"You idiot, if we don't strike first, we'll become lambs to the slaughter. Xie Yun, that bastard Xie Yun is a twisted pervert. Do you really want to be controlled by him for the rest of your life? If the ancestor is in trouble, that bastard will skin you alive, you believe me?"
Su Rumei didn't believe it. She cried and said, "Isn't it because you betrayed Master first, Ancestor?"
"you……"
The Heavenly Demon Mother was extremely disappointed in Su Rumei. If she weren't her only descendant, and if she didn't resemble her daughter, the Heavenly Demon Mother would have killed her long ago to cleanse the family. However, what could she do? Seeing Su Rumei reminded her of the daughter she had abandoned, and every time, her heart softened.

Time flies so fast; winter is over in a flash, spring has arrived, and all things are growing.
Han Wei held a pear blossom in her hand, turned her head to look into the distance, and saw a man in white walking out of the pear blossom grove.
His pristine white robes billowed in the wind, revealing his handsome and elegant appearance, captivating all who beheld him.
Han Wei was momentarily dazed, as if she could see that gentle-looking young man again.
Gu Qi walked towards Han Wei step by step and stood in front of her. Han Wei glanced at him, then looked down at the pear blossom in her hand and asked, "Master, is this flower of mine pretty?"
"Um."
The man nodded.
Han Wei looked up again at the man's profile and said, "I want to put it in a vase."
"Good disciple, what are you looking for here? Or what are you waiting for?" Gu Qi looked sharply at Han Wei and suddenly grabbed her hand holding the pear blossom.
Han Wei's heart skipped a beat, and she feigned confusion, asking, "What do you mean?"
She broke free from him.
“Isn’t that right? A whole winter has passed, and we’re still here.” Gu Qi looked around; they could see Xingyue City in the distance.
"As I said, I'm restless and my mind is unstable. My parents have been here before, and I just want to stay a little longer in a place they've been to," Han Wei said.
The man didn't say anything, but just kept staring at her face. His gaze was as sharp as his sword, making Han Wei want to look away, but she was afraid that he would think she was guilty, so she forced herself to meet his eyes.
After gazing at each other for a long time, the man sighed, took her hand, and said:
"Let's go back!"
After saying this, he took Han Wei's hand, and the two of them transformed into a streak of light, flying towards Xingyue City. Xingyue City was one of the most famous cultivation cities in the Eastern Region, its reputation comparable to that of Feixian City.
Gu Qi bought a cave dwelling here. Han Wei only found out after she arrived that he had bought the cave dwelling here hundreds of years ago.
There are many peach trees planted outside the cave, and it is currently the season for peach blossoms.
Han Wei placed the pear blossoms she had picked into a vase, then looked at the peach blossoms outside. One was pure white and translucent, the other a vibrant red; each had its own unique charm.
She counted the days, staring at Gu Qi playing the piano outside, and various thoughts welled up in her mind.
That night, the master and apprentice were watching the moon and stars on the roof. Originally, Han Wei was watching alone, but Gu Qi saw this and flew up, so there were two of them.
"Master, you've been to the Upper Realm, haven't you?" Han Wei asked.
"I've been there."
"Why did you come back?"
"I was seriously injured and stumbled back here by accident."
"Once you've fully recovered, will you go back for revenge?"
"Revenge? I've already done it."
Han Wei: "..."
"I risked serious injury to get my revenge first, and then I stumbled back here by accident," Gu Qi said with a smile.
Looking at Han Wei, who was standing there in a daze, Gu Qi reached out and patted her head, smiling as he said, "Yunlan Realm is too small. Once I'm fully recovered, I should indeed take you away from here."
Han Wei didn't like him touching her head. Gu Qi thought she would slap his hand away like before, but this time she didn't. She looked at him and suddenly asked, "Master, do you like me?"
Gu Qi withdrew his hand, his expression turning serious: "Was I that inconspicuous?"
"I don't believe it. You couldn't even break the chain spell for me, how could you possibly like me?" Han Wei also became serious.
