In a quiet room within the courtyard.
Lu Yuliu looked at the ssage on the wooden sword in her hand and let out a sigh of relief.
She really didn’t expect that she would be involved in such a major event right after arriving in the Royal City.
Fortunately, she no longer needed to worry about it— Although she didn’t know what that annoying bully was thinking, it seed that the Immortal Nation would handle this matter.
Well, it’s not sothing she, a re Foundation Establishnt cultivator, could ddle in anyway.
As she thought about it, she realized that there had been too many events happening around her today.
Originally, she only wanted to co and see how the opening ceremony of the Demon Artifact Pavilion would turn out, as well as to see what peculiar things Luo Wusheng had co up with that attracted so many Qi Refining cultivators within the Royal City.
She didn’t even consider whether she should reveal her presence in the Royal City so quickly when she first arrived this morning.
So when she felt the ssage being transmitted through the wooden sword during the opening ceremony, she claid she was still in the Sword Sect.
She just didn’t expect that she had already been discovered...
Thinking about it, her little face blushed slightly, feeling sowhat embarrassed.
Especially when she thought about the encounter with Bai Xiaoyao later on, the strange look from the Demon Sect’s Holy Maiden, and the montary impulse she had when facing the courtesan from the Red Blossom Pavilion...
Ah, she felt like dying.
But fortunately, the incident on the Sea-Crossing Boat had not been exposed.
That incident could be considered one of her biggest secrets at the mont, to the extent that it was on par with her possessing the Sword Ancestor’s wooden sword.
Leaning lightly on the bed, Lu Yuliu’s gaze swept across the room she was currently in.
This wasn’t the room she chose to hide in from that mind-reading eyeball earlier today; it was the bedroom Luo Wusheng had selected for earlier on.
It was secluded from the street noise and appeared peaceful, reminding the young girl of her small pavilion on the Frosty Snow Peak.
Of course, since she is her Master direct disciple, the room decorations and size here couldn’t compare to her personal residence on the Frosty Snow Peak.
"I didn’t expect to move in here at all..."
She sighed softly, and Little Yuli’s gaze beca sowhat distant.
Although she had indeed considered whether she should mooch off that annoying Holy Saint of the Demon Sect for food and lodging, when he actually invited her to stay, she hesitated again.
After all, what exactly was her relationship with that guy now?
Clearly, he was the Holy Saint of the Demon Sect, and now, all the important figures in the Royal City even had to address him as Lord Luo. But deep inside her heart, he was still that annoying bully who does many odd things and loves to tease her left and right.
Coupled with the impression built through their usual exchange of ssages using the wooden sword over these past few days, she couldn’t connect the person on the other end of the sword with the Demon Sect’s Holy Saint who had annihilated a Nascent Soul with a single strike and displayed remarkable prowess.
"Can I consider him a friend for now...? I just feel like sothing is not quite right..."
Little Yuli fell into contemplation.
At that mont, the wooden sword in her hand vibrated.
[By the way, how is your master doing now? Since you left the Sword Sect early, does that an the influence of her demonic possession has been completely eliminated?]
Lu Yuliu looked at the ssage and her heart skipped a beat.
’Why would he ntion my master at this ti— No, maybe I’m being too sensitive. There’s no way he would have realized that the person I was exchanging ssages with before wasn’t , and even if he did realize, he wouldn’t guess it was my master...’
After all, the other party had never t her master in the first place.
On the other hand, if the influence of her master’s demonic possession hadn’t been eliminated, then she indeed wouldn’t have co to the Royal City so early.
The problem is, now, not to ntion demonic possession, her master has already advanced to the Middle stage of the Nascent Soul realm, further improving her cultivation. She only needs to consolidate her realm to beco virtually unmatched among middle stage Nascent Soul cultivators.
Thinking about the sharp sword intent she could sense even from a distance during her master’s Trial of Seven Peaks, Lu Yuliu, with her exquisite sword heart, had no doubts about her master’s current strength.
After a brief contemplation, the young girl began to reply.
[The Blood Spirit Jade’s effect was unexpected, and my master is unhard.]
......
Luo Wusheng frowned.
Although he hadn’t experienced the effect of the Blood Spirit Jade himself, he had read the original work.
In the original story, although the Blood Spirit Jade had the effect of resolving the state of demonic possession, it didn’t take effect so quickly.
The real acceleration of its effectiveness ca when the little girl touched the heartstrings of her master during one of her episodes, leading the master to realize her past mistakes. Only then did her master finally reshape her sword heart. With the combination of the Blood Spirit Jade, the influence of the demonic possession completely dissipated, allowing her to start breaking through to the middle Nascent Soul stage.
But now, Little Yuli hadn’t yet had her episode, right?
’Could it be that Lu Yuliu had her episode a few days ago, but it didn’t fully manifest? And she was still able to exchange ssages with while in that state?’
He definitely didn’t believe that the effect of the Blood Spirit Jade was unexpectedly quick.
There was definitely sothing that Little Yuli was hiding from him.
"If it really was her episode that she’s hiding, she certainly wouldn’t tell sothing like that..."
So, was her secret is that she had recently undergone her episode?
’It doesn’t feel quite right either; the timing is too tight— In the original story, after having her episode, Lu Yuliu even had more than a week of intimate ti with her lted iceberg-like beauty before she awakened. It’s only been seven days since her master woke up, unless they directly started to have sex right after confessing their feelings for each other...’
’Ahem, Lu Yuliu shouldn’t be that kind of protagonist, right?’
Luo Wusheng quickly organized his thoughts and put on the gaze of a skilled detective.
He didn’t have any leads on the truth yet, but he could gather more clues first.
[That’s good— Now that the effects of demonic possession have subsided, your master should have restored her cultivation, right? Previously, you ntioned that your master was at the early stage of the Nascent Soul realm. Can she make further progress this ti and begin to break through to the middle stage of the Nascent Soul realm?]
He sent this ssage, and the response on the other end was clearly unsure of how to reply.
After a short wait, Luo Wusheng finally received a response.
[Hmm.]
The other side seed to sense the inappropriate response and quickly sent another ssage.
[My master might have indeed turned a misfortune into a blessing— Why are you asking all these questions?]
[Nothing much, just thinking about why you ca to the capital so early this ti and recalling how concerned you were about your master before. Just curious, that’s all.]
[Then I guess we’re done with the questions for now— So much has happened today, and I’m a bit tired. I’ll end it here for tonight...]
The writing on the wooden sword slowly faded away.
Watching this scene, Luo Wusheng pondered.
The technique of going offline obviously revealed the young girl’s anxiety. But he hadn’t obtained enough clues yet...
"Forget it, I don’t know when I’ll be able to et Lu Yuliu’s master anyway. It’s not good to push too much right now..."
He could always find an opportunity later to et that icy beauty and investigate the situation.
