Chapter 29: Was she slept with, or did she sleep with him?
There’s a saying, what is it?
Life is about being violated, and since you can’t resist, you might as well lie down and enjoy it.
Heh, lying down is impossible.
After all, Lin Mo was, in a sense, genuinely being… so he had to fight back.
Since the deed was done, at least the initiative had to be with Lin Mo.
Seeing Lin Mo shift from passive to active, Yan Ruyu’s originally calm face finally showed a hint of surprise.
To be honest, although she was over a hundred years old, this was her first time doing such a thing, and pretending not to be nervous would be a lie.
Seeing his skillful movements and the variety of techniques he employed, which even made her feel ashamed.
She was the Saintess of the Demon Realm, where such matters of physical intimacy were commonplace.
Although she was a virgin, she had ample theoretical knowledge.
Who would have thought that Lin Mo’s techniques were things she had never heard of or seen before?
Moreover, she discovered that Lin Mo still had his original Yang essence, which meant he was also a virgin.
This was what made Yan Ruyu feel utterly absurd.
What she didn’t know was that Lin Mo was indeed a virgin, but in his previous life, he was a modern person who had seen countless adult films.
The knowledge imparted by those esteemed Japanese teachers was no joke.
Have you never seen a pig run just because you haven’t eaten pork?
Lin Mo was victorious in this battle…
Meanwhile…
Xia He returned to the inn and learned from the waiter that Jiangyue Building was a place of ill repute.
At this point, she understood why the women there were so unrestrained.
Xia He slammed the table and exclaimed, “As expected, Lin Mo has no good intentions. It’s already the hour of Hai, and he’s definitely planning to do shameless things in that den of iniquity.”
“What sort of shameless things?” Ruoyan Qu asked while gnawing on a braised pork bone.
“It’s… it’s…” Thinking of those scenes, Xia He’s face turned red, “In short, it’s just disgusting!”
Zhiqu Xie then curiously looked at Zhi’an Xie, “Sister, do you know what it is?”
Zhi’an Xie smiled, “It’s what we do often at night!”
“You two…” Looking at the two sisters, Xia He felt like she’d been struck by lightning.
Zhiqu Xie blushed, lowered her head, and fell silent.
Ruoyan Qu, however, remained like a curious baby and pestered Xia He, “Xia Xia, what exactly is it!”
“Children shouldn’t ask so many questions,” Xia He said.
“But I’m older than you, Xia Xia…”
Although she knew Ruoyan Qu was referring to age, why was she looking at her chest while speaking?
Xia He changed the subject, “I don’t think we can just wait around like this.”
“We’ve been in Daliang City for three days, and we haven’t made any progress on the trial mission. Lin Mo said he’d lure the snake out, but I only saw him enjoying himself in the entertainment district. Where is the demeanor of a senior disciple leading a trial?”
Ruoyan Qu didn’t understand anything and only knew how to eat.
“We should take the initiative to complete the mission now. If we delay any longer, what if new victims appear in the city?”
Zhi’an Xie and Zhiqu Xie, however, agreed more with Xia He’s words.
After some discussion, they decided to sneak into Minister Ding’s Mansion at night to look for clues.
“Xia Xia, didn’t senior brother say we shouldn’t act alone?” Ruoyan Qu said at this moment.
“Ruoyan, are you willing to see the city’s residents continue to be killed by malevolent spirits?” Xia He asked.
“No!” Ruoyan Qu shook her head.
“Then do you think it’s wrong for us cultivators to uphold justice?” Xia He asked again!
“It’s not wrong!”
“Then since we know the clue is in Minister Ding’s Mansion, why shouldn’t we prevent more tragedies from happening?”
“But…” Ruoyan Qu didn’t know what else to say.
Although what Xia He said was justifiable, she felt something was not quite right. In the end, she still chose to act with them.
……
The next day, before the sky had even lit up, Yan Ruyu was already dressed.
She covered the sleeping youth with the blanket, and thinking of last night’s scene, she blushed again.
She touched her slightly bulging lower abdomen and felt the circulation of her spiritual energy. Yan Ruyu deduced that she was likely pregnant.
The door was pushed open, and the maid who had been accompanying Yan Ruyu entered.
“Saintess, everything is ready. We have to leave today.”
“Yes, we’ll depart later.”
Seeing her hesitate to speak, Yan Ruyu asked, “Is something wrong?”
The maid suddenly shed tears, “I just feel that Saintess has suffered too much…”
“If it weren’t for those old fools, you wouldn’t have had to sacrifice yourself to such an unknown cultivator who is only at the Foundation stage.”
“As long as it can keep those old fools in check and prevent the Demon Realm from falling into chaos, this sacrifice is not a big deal,” Yan Ruyu said.
“But isn’t Nangong Xu’s aptitude better?”
The maid looked confused. The Talents Assembly was a bait to attract people.
The real purpose was to identify those with superior aptitude, so that the Demon Seed born would be even more perfect.
Although Nangong Xu’s pill refinement was only seventh grade, which she felt was slightly inferior, he was at least a Heavenly Spirit Root and the most suitable candidate among them.
By all accounts, he was stronger than this cultivator of similar age who was only at the Foundation stage.
She admitted that Lin Mo indeed had talent, but talent wasn’t aptitude, nor could it be eaten.
Yan Ruyu smiled, “Who told you his aptitude is inferior to Nangong Xu’s?”
The maid suddenly remembered the continuous, ear-piercing sounds she had heard last night…
Saintess, I wasn’t referring to his skill…
Clearly, she had misunderstood.
Yan Ruyu continued, “Do you know that besides the five elements, Heavenly Spirit Roots have other attributes?”
“Saintess, are you saying that Young Master Lin is not only a Heavenly Spirit Root, but also a mutated Heavenly Spirit Root?”
“That’s right!” Yan Ruyu nodded, “Do you know of the ‘Sword’ Spirit Root?”
The maid’s eyes widened. How could she not know of the ‘Sword’ Spirit Root? The Old Ancestor of the Spiritual Sword Sect, Sword Maniac, possessed the ‘Sword’ Spirit Root.
With Heavenly Spirit Root aptitude and suitable cultivation techniques and resources, reaching the Nascent Soul stage within a hundred years was not difficult.
And mutated Heavenly Spirit Roots had even greater talent.
But she couldn’t understand, if Lin Mo was a ‘Sword’ Spirit Root, why was his cultivation only at the Foundation stage at such an age?
Yan Ruyu was equally puzzled by this question.
Her identity was already special, and this trip to choose a suitable partner in Daliang City was out of desperation.
If she hadn’t met Lin Mo this time, Nangong Xu would undoubtedly have been her first choice.
Nangong Xu also had Heavenly Spirit Root aptitude, so she was content to meet him in such a place.
But she never expected to meet someone like Lin Mo here, a ‘Sword’ Spirit Root rare in a thousand years.
However, this was also her good fortune. Such a talent, fortunately, he was still young and hadn’t grown, and it was thanks to Lin Mo’s low-key nature that he hadn’t revealed his aptitude.
If this aptitude were exposed, he would surely be a target for major sects to pour resources into and cultivate.
Then how would she have had the chance to meet him in a place like this?
Yan Ruyu turned to look at the Liuli Sword beside Lin Mo.
Upon being noticed, the Liuli Sword was terrified and thought: Don’t see me, don’t see me…
Although Yan Ruyu couldn’t communicate with the Liuli Sword, she could sense the sword spirit within and its emotions.
She couldn’t help but chuckle, “This sword is quite good. Although it’s only a low-grade magical treasure, it has a sword spirit. However, its cultivation technique is lacking.”
Thinking of this, she suddenly remembered that she had a good sword-type cultivation technique.
If it were him, he should be able to wield it and become famous throughout the world with this sword technique.
