Chapter 30: By that day, I’ll definitely make Yan Ruyu unable to get out of bed.
When Lin Mo woke up, he didn’t see any sign of Yan Ruyu.
“I didn’t expect my first time to be gone just like this.” Thinking of the exhilarating battle last night, he rubbed his still dizzy head again.
As he was about to get up, he found that his spiritual energy had become even more potent. Besides that, the spiritual energy seemed to be nourished, becoming more refined.
What was going on?
Lin Mo couldn’t help but feel confused and turned to ask the system.
“System, if I were to achieve Nuanced Nine-Grade Pill Formation now, what are the chances?”
[Congratulations to the host for striking it rich. You have dual cultivated with a late-stage Nascent Soul cultivator. Now, as long as you wish to break through, your Core Formation will surely be a Ninth-grade Golden Core.]
A late-stage Nascent Soul cultivator. Lin Mo knew Yan Ruyu was extraordinary.
He never expected her to be two major realms higher than his Master Yuehua.
No wonder she could so easily suppress Nangong Xu purely with her aura.
Such a great opportunity often came with corresponding risks.
Lin Mo began to worry about his future safety.
But now things were good. After returning to Azure Bamboo Peak, he would directly go into seclusion to break through, saving even Regret points.
[Ding, detected that the host does not wish to spend Regret points to attempt Golden Core formation. This system proposes a new plan: only one thousand Regret points are needed to form a ‘Flawless Golden Core’.]
What the heck?
There was even a Flawless Golden Core???
“The original owner’s memories don’t mention this. And you’ve never brought it up before, System. Aren’t you trying to trick me out of my Regret points?”
[This system is absolutely honest and fair. ‘Flawless Golden Core’ is above a Ninth-grade Golden Core. As the name suggests, it’s a Golden Core without any flaws, capable of containing True Qi of the same quality as the spiritual energy generated by heaven and earth. It only costs one thousand Regret points, which is already very worthwhile.]
To be as pure as the spiritual energy generated by heaven and earth…
This means that after forming the core, his cultivation speed would not only far surpass others, but the quality of his spiritual energy would also be far superior to others at the same level.
If that were the case, then one thousand Regret points would be worth it.
Lin Mo had made up his mind. When he returned and went into seclusion, he would spend these one thousand Regret points to form this ‘Flawless’ Golden Core.
He stood up and looked around, still not finding Yan Ruyu. However, he noticed two items on the tea table.
A jade slip recording a certain cultivation technique with spiritual energy, and a strangely shaped stone.
He curiously flipped through the jade slip, and the more he read, the more shocked he became.
This was a sword-type cultivation technique, nameless, but Lin Mo could tell it was extraordinary.
Even with his current sword talent, absorbing it was somewhat slow.
After about an hour, he finally mastered the sword-type cultivation technique.
[Congratulations to the host for obtaining ‘Nameless Sword Art’. This sword art is a mid-grade Heavenly tier item.]
Lin Mo was not stupid, he understood this was something Yan Ruyu had left for him.
He couldn’t help but feel a wry smile.
Not only had he been slept with, but the other party had also generously bestowed upon him a Heavenly tier sword art.
He finally understood the feeling of those gigolos who were slept by female CEOs in his past life and were given a pile of cash.
This incident was an insult to his male dignity, a trampling of his character.
Of course, if there were more good things like this, Lin Mo would hope to encounter them a few more times.
This time, he truly didn’t lose out.
However, this cultivation technique was a bit strange. It required blood as a guide, and the more people injured, the faster it could be cultivated. It looked a bit like a demonic cultivator’s evil art!
Lin Mo had no prejudice against cultivation techniques. Wasn’t there a saying that cultivation techniques are neither good nor evil, but depend on the person who uses them?
Lin Mo was indeed not a bloodthirsty person, but he would not be soft-hearted when killing those who were extremely wicked or those who provoked him.
If he really couldn’t advance, wouldn’t he still have the system?
[Ding, the host is reminded that for mid-grade Heavenly tier cultivation techniques, the Regret points required for upgrades are immense. From the first to the second level, it requires five thousand Regret points. From the second to the third level, it requires ten thousand. From the third to the fourth level, it requires twenty thousand, and so on.]
Damn it, this was a bit expensive.
But Lin Mo felt that if he cultivated it himself, without using the blood of others.
It would probably take at least a year from the first to the second level.
He himself was cultivating the mid-grade Profound tier ‘Three Thousand Sword Art’, which was currently at the sixth level, and it only took him about a month.
From this, one could imagine how difficult the ‘Nameless Sword Art’ was to cultivate.
Apart from the sword art, Lin Mo began to examine the stone that was placed with it.
This should also be from Yan Ruyu, but what was its specific use?
[Reminder to the host, the stone contains the power to travel to another space, but the restriction within needs to be opened. In addition, it has a built-in defensive magic array, which can help the host neutralize one fatal blow and teleport them away.]
The value of such a life-saving item was no less than that of the cultivation technique.
Moreover, it seemed more useful to Yan Ruyu herself.
She even left something like this for me…
Was she really afraid that I would be killed and felt guilty?
Lin Mo thought this was very likely.
He decided to go find Yan Ruyu to get a clear answer.
“You mean the Proprietor (Building Master)? She has already left.”
“This Proprietor (Building Master) bought Jiangyue Building a few months ago. She only said she was borrowing Jiangyue Building for a while. I don’t know her background, so I don’t know when she will return.”
After hearing the madam’s explanation, Lin Mo suddenly felt a sense of emptiness.
Regarding this Yan Ruyu, it seemed he knew nothing about her except her name.
Lin Mo sighed softly, turned back to his room to get his Liuli Sword, and prepared to return to the inn to meet up with those Junior Sisters.
He had originally planned to go back last night, but he didn’t expect such an unforeseen situation to occur.
Probably, Xia He was talking badly about him again right now.
As he picked up the Liuli Sword from beside the bed, Lin Mo noticed a trace of crimson on the bedsheet and quilt.
Good heavens, this directly shocked him.
Yesterday, due to the drug’s effect, the process had been very violent, and he hadn’t noticed many details.
Thinking about it carefully now, when they were in extremely close contact yesterday, Yan Ruyu clearly showed a pained expression.
He really didn’t expect that this seemingly bold and proactive Yan Ruyu was also a virgin.
Although there was a slight strangeness in his heart, Lin Mo’s affection for Yan Ruyu increased.
However, his first woman slept with him and then ran away. This was still quite infuriating.
“That…” At this moment, the Liuli Sword in his hand spoke.
“The great sister from yesterday had something she wanted Xiao Li to tell you!”
“What did she say?” Even Lin Mo didn’t realize it himself, he was a little excited now.
“She said, ‘Don’t worry, no one will come looking for you because of me.'”
Lin Mo was horrified. This was the first time he had met Yan Ruyu, yet she understood him so well.
He felt a bit embarrassed that she seemed to have seen through him.
“Anything else?” Lin Mo continued to ask.
“She also said that she doesn’t need you to be responsible. If you really want to find her, whether it’s for revenge or lingering affection, as long as you can reach Nascent Soul within ten years, that stone will guide you to find her…”
This woman, she even considered that I would seek revenge?
Lin Mo really didn’t know what to say. It was as if he was the big girl who had been slept with.
Clearly, he remembered that he was the one who was active for most of last night.
Ten years from Foundation Establishment to Nascent Soul, this was simply an impossible task.
It seemed like she was telling him to give up!
Lin Mo chuckled. He was not some infatuated youth who would madly improve himself for love until he caught up with the woman, and then have a sweet romance.
He would definitely disdain to do such a thing.
He would find ways to improve his strength. Even if he hadn’t met Yan Ruyu, Lin Mo would still do so, otherwise, how could he establish himself in this cultivation world?
As for Yan Ruyu, he would also go find her.
However, it wouldn’t be to have a sweet romance with her.
It would be to settle the score. While sober, he would definitely make Yan Ruyu unable to straighten her back, unable to get out of bed, and make her so reliant on him that she couldn’t leave.
After all, the feeling of being slept with and then disappearing was truly very unpleasant.
After a simple tidying up, Lin Mo left Jiangyue Building with a refreshed and radiant expression.
When he returned to the inn, he didn’t see his Junior Sisters.
He found the waiter.
“Oh, Young Master, your Junior Sisters didn’t return yesterday. They set off together again not long after returning and haven’t come back since.”
“When I saw them leave, I also heard them discussing, ‘After we finish this training mission, we’ll go back to the Sect and lodge a strong complaint against that Senior Brother.'”
Upon hearing this, the radiant expression on Lin Mo’s face gradually turned cold.
Needless to say, his Junior Sisters had not listened to him and had acted on their own to go to the Ding manor.
They hadn’t returned all night, and most likely, something had happened.
