Chapter 107: Chapter 107: Secluded Mountain Pool, The Qi Family’s Envoy
Inside the quiet room.
An elegant, tranquil silver-haired beauty in a simple, pure-white dress stood before a talisman-crafting table.
SWISH.
The exquisite talisman brush, dipped in blood-ink, landed on the talisman paper.
Her slender, pale hand moved, sketching the complex lines of the glyph in one fluid motion!
She lifted the brush.
A cyan-purple spiritual light flickered across the surface of the talisman before quickly fading away.
"A Tier-2 Mid-grade Lightning Glyph."
A smile graced Luo Xiyin’s face.
Thanks to her cultivation of the Six Desires Secret Scripture, the damage to her spiritual soul had completely healed.
Her Divine Sense grew more agile and active, and her skill in the art of talismans rose in tandem!
Even the bottleneck to the Mid-stage Foundation Establishnt realm, which had held her back for so long, was showing signs of loosening!
’Maybe... after I break through to the Mid-stage Foundation Establishnt realm, I’ll be able to try crafting quasi-Tier-3 talismans?’ Luo Xiyin murmured to herself.
As a genius in the art of talismans, what had always limited her progress was her cultivation level, not her talent.
"Mmm..." A faint blush appeared on Luo Xiyin’s cheeks.
’In two more days, I can cultivate the Six Desires Secret Scripture again...’
Before she knew it, her cultivation sessions for the Six Desires Secret Scripture every five days had beco the thing she most looked forward to.
The silver-haired beauty nodded slightly, her long lashes fluttering.
Her crystal-clear eyes, like placid lakes, seed to reflect the image of a certain soone...
For so reason, her heart began to flutter.
...
「Two days later.」
In the cave residence.
Luo Xiyin walked over to her vanity.
She ford a hand seal, and a flicker of spiritual light appeared.
The light swept the dust from the vanity, revealing the clear surface of a crystal mirror that had long been coated in dust.
Then.
Luo Xiyin took out an exquisite mahogany box.
Her slender fingers slid it open.
Inside were rouge, powder, and other costics a young woman might use.
She had almost never worn makeup since reaching the Foundation Establishnt realm.
Given the transford life essence of a Foundation Establishnt cultivator, makeup could only enhance her beauty by ten or twenty percent at most.
Moreover, with Luo Xiyin’s cold and aloof personality and her disinclination to go out, she rarely bothered with her appearance.
But now, for so reason, Luo Xiyin sat down before the vanity.
She gazed into the crystal mirror and began to ticulously apply her makeup, defining her eyes and brows.
After applying the costics according to her own aesthetic tastes,
the silver-haired beauty in the mirror—already a peerless belle—was now so perfect she no longer seed to belong to the mortal world.
Luo Xiyin’s clear eyes shimred. She raised a snow-white wrist to gently cup her delicate chin, studying the person in the mirror.
’Is this... ?’
The face in the mirror was still hers.
But the lancholy air of a cold, solitary "flower on a high peak" had softened under the blush of rouge.
In its place... was there a hint of narcissistic allure, a coquettishness that seed to feign resistance while secretly inviting pursuit?
"Ngh...?!"
Noticing this, Luo Xiyin grew flustered and instinctively wanted to use a water-type technique to wash off her makeup.
But just as suddenly, she stopped.
She stared into the mirror, lightly bit her vermilion lips, and murmured to herself.
’He... he’ll like it, won’t he?’
...
「An hour later.」
In the sky above.
A beam of azure Escape Light descended gracefully from the sky.
Su Ye retracted the Escape Light and landed firmly on the ground.
"Mr. Su..."
Outside the cave residence, Luo Xiyin, dressed in a white gauze skirt, drifted forward to greet him with graceful steps.
"Luo..." Su Ye felt a stir of surprise.
’It seems Luo Xiyin was waiting for
specifically?’
And...
Su Ye’s gaze swept over the silver-haired beauty before him.
Luo Xiyin’s cherry lips were rosy and her makeup was exquisite. She had clearly taken great care in preparing herself!
Admiration flashed in Su Ye’s eyes. "You’re looking radiant today," he praised.
"Mm..." Hearing Su Ye’s praise, Luo Xiyin bead.
She turned her head slightly, suppressing her inner excitent, and replied with feigned indifference.
"I just felt like dressing up a little, that’s all..."
However, the lightness in her gait inadvertently gave her feelings away completely.
Su Ye chuckled, at a loss for words. He followed Luo Xiyin into the cave residence to begin their ’discussion on the Dao of Arrays’.
...
「An hour later.」
Miss Luo’s little lesson on Arrays ca to an end~
Su Ye stood up and took off his black robes, revealing the shirt underneath. He was preparing to begin cultivating the Six Desires Secret Scripture.
Just then, Luo Xiyin blinked, and in a soft, lodious voice, she proposed an idea.
"Mr. Su, this Cultivation Technique doesn’t depend on the level of Spiritual Qi so much as the surrounding atmosphere..."
"According to the scripture, cultivating in a secluded lake or a deep pool seems to enhance the technique’s effects, doesn’t it?"
"Oh? It’s worth a try," Su Ye readily agreed.
Two beams of Escape Light flew out of the cave residence, traveling side-by-side through the clouds.
At the speed of a Foundation Establishnt cultivator, crossing Luoyue Mountain took no more than the ti it takes to drink a cup of tea.
Soon, Luo Xiyin led Su Ye deep into Luoyue Mountain.
They arrived at a quiet, secluded, deep pool where the water was exceptionally clear and cold.
"Hm? This place..."
Su Ye’s heart skipped a beat. A mory surfaced in his Divine Sense, and a strange feeling washed over him.
Wasn’t this the very place where he and Luo Qing’e had pledged their hearts to one another and agreed to be married?
’What a coincidence...’
"What’s wrong?"
Luo Xiyin feigned innocence as she leaned in closer to Su Ye.
"It’s nothing. The environnt is nice. Let’s get ready," Su Ye said, shaking his head.
"Hee~" A faint smile involuntarily touched the corners of Luo Xiyin’s lips.
’Oh, but I did it on purpose~’
After all,
when Luo Qing’e and Su Ye had made their marriage pact, Luo Xiyin had been right there, watching!
How could she, a Foundation Establishnt cultivator with a photographic mory granted by her Divine Sense, ever forget a detail like that?
"Mmm..." Luo Xiyin’s lashes fluttered, her eyes glinting with a strange light.
’I want it so that when you think of this deep pool,’
’the first mory that cos to mind is the one we are about to create!’
’Not anyone else’s!’
"Mr. Su, could you help
for a mont..."
Luo Xiyin bent down, her graceful, soft, and warm body leaning against Su Ye.
Then, with a deft movent of her fingers, she slipped off her embroidered shoes.
She revealed a pair of slender, perfectly-proportioned, jade-white feet tinged with a delicate pink.
Compared to Qing’e’s "ice cream," Luo Xiyin’s bare feet seed to have a unique flavor of their own...
"Let’s begin, Mr. Su~"
Luo Xiyin said with a captivating smile.
Barefoot and dressed in thin white gauze, she looked like a mountain sprite as she walked into the deep pool.
Su Ye chuckled, shed his black robes, and followed right after her.
Soon, within the secluded pool,
the two figures sat facing each other, feeling the warmth of each other’s bodies and the rhythm of their breathing.
The Six Desires Secret Scripture began to circulate. Their Divine Senses rged, and they beca completely imrsed in the process.
"Nnh..."
Luo Xiyin’s eyes were closed tight, and she let out a soft, intoxicated hum.
Su Ye inhaled the orchid-like fragrance that lingered around him, and his mind began to relax.
...
「Several days later.」
Within the Luo Clan estate.
"Husband, an envoy from the Qi Family is here to discuss war reparations..."
"Huh? Ancestor, what are you doing here?"
Luo Qing’e said as she pushed open the door, her expression tinged with suspicion.
"Ahem..."
"The envoy from the Qi Family is here? Bring him to !"
Su Ye coughed lightly to draw her attention.
Luo Xiyin, anwhile, smoothed out so telling wrinkles in her clothes and steadied her breathing...
