Chapter 165: Breaking Through the Cave Void Realm
"So, after that, the Old Master of the Divine Sword Sect personally taught you?" Lu Yi said with a smile.
"Junior Brother, how did you know?" Jian Ruyu was somewhat surprised.
"I heard it from Uncle Jian last time I visited Wenjian Manor," Lu Yi explained.
"I see," Jian Ruyu realized and then she laughed, "I still have to thank you for the Sect Protection Array at Wenjian Manor. Although the Divine Sword Stele suppresses the petty demons, it's always good to be prepared for any eventuality."
Lu Yi smiled: "It's what I should do."
Then Lu Yi curiously asked, "Senior Sister, why are you heading out now?"
Jian Ruyu sighed and said, "Cultivation at this level, even for an Immortal Body, has slowed down a bit. The Old Master asked me to go to the Sea Clan Battlefield to temper myself, so I can break through faster."
Lu Yi understood. For cultivators to advance in cultivation, they inevitably needed to gain experience and fight, to comprehend their own Tao and discern the direction for progress through great battles.
But Lu Yi had the chance for Sudden Enlightenment every month, and on top of that, his foundation was condensed from the Tao itself, making his understanding of the Tao far surpass that of ordinary cultivators, even those with Immortal Bodies.
Even if Lu Yi simply focused on secluded cultivation, he could make rapid breakthroughs.
"The battle in the Sea Clan Battlefield is quite fierce right now. If Senior Sister Ruyu is going, you should be careful," Lu Yi warned.
"I'm well aware of that. You haven't even experienced as many trials as I have, Junior Brother," Jian Ruyu pinched Lu Yi's face, clearly not convinced.
Lu Yi laughed: "As long as Senior Sister understands."
Jian Ruyu looked at Lu Yi, and then a trace of light gleamed in her eyes as she smiled, "By the way, Junior Brother, I have not yet thanked you for the Sword Heart Fruit."
Lu Yi looked at Jian Ruyu with some confusion: "Senior Sister, how do you plan to thank..."
Before Lu Yi could finish, Jian Ruyu grabbed his collar, pulled him over, and then kissed him forcefully.
Lu Yi: "???"
He was a bit stunned. Was this considered being forcefully kissed?
Jian Ruyu was quite aggressive, and Lu Yi could feel the sweet scent coming over as Jian Ruyu tried to pry open his mouth.
Lu Yi was a little numb. A forceful kiss was not enough, and she even intended to take the initiative?
After all, Lu Yi had spent months in Dual Cultivation with Yun Xi and was now a man. Naturally, he couldn't just stand it.
He grabbed Jian Ruyu's hand, pulling her in front of him, and retaliated.
Jian Ruyu's eyes widened, then stubbornly applied physical strength, attempting to overpower Lu Yi.
Lu Yi raised an eyebrow, surprised. Jian Ruyu's Transformation into an Immortal Body had made her physique much stronger than before.
It might even be stronger than that of the Heavenly Dragon Saint Son.
Considering that Jian Ruyu was a sword cultivator, the fact that she had a stronger body than a peerless demon of Body Cultivation was nothing short of shocking.
But such strength was naturally insignificant before Lu Yi.
Lu Yi grabbed Jian Ruyu's snowy white hand, pinned her arms behind her with his right hand, and his left hand slid across Jian Ruyu's waist.
Jian Ruyu's delicate body trembled slightly, then she quickly turned her head to catch her breath: "Junior Brother, no!"
Lu Yi stopped, a mischievous smile on his face: "Senior Sister Ruyu, you were the one who started this, how can you think of fleeing now?"
Jian Ruyu's face, filled with a martial aura, was flushed as she said, "I came here with Elder Fang Tianyao. I gave Elder Fang Tianyao the slip for a while, and he should be back any moment now."
Lu Yi stiffened, somewhat disappointed as he let go: "Alright then."
Seeing Lu Yi's reaction, Jian Ruyu said with a smile, "When I return from the Sea Clan Battlefield, I'll stay in Qingzhou for a while."
Hearing this, Lu Yi understood Jian Ruyu's intention and his eyes lit up: "Alright."
"Aren't you going to let go of me?" Jian Ruyu was currently sitting in Lu Yi's lap, feeling something unusual, and she glared at Lu Yi huffily: "Hmph! How is your body so strong? I thought I could overpower you... but you bullied me to death."
Lu Yi smiled: "I completely overpowered the Heavenly Dragon Saint Son when he challenged me to the Body Cultivation Path not long ago."
Hearing this, Jian Ruyu was a bit shocked and admired: "As expected of my Junior Brother, you are indeed impressive."
Lu Yi let go of Jian Ruyu, who got up, her cheeks still flushed. She downed a glass of wine, then said, "By the way, where is Ningshuang? I haven't seen her in a while and have missed her."
"Senior Sister is in seclusion. Didn't you go to see her first, Senior Sister Ruyu?" Lu Yi asked in surprise.
Jian Ruyu smirked: "If I went to see her first, would I have had the chance to kiss you?"
Lu Yi felt a bit weird and exclaimed: "So Senior Sister Ruyu, you premeditated this."
Jian Ruyu's face turned slightly red, then she revealed a mischievous smile, adopting the air of a dandy as she pinched Lu Yi's cheek: "That's right, Senior Sister has been coveting Junior Brother's body, hehehe~"
Lu Yi: "..."
His face full of resignation, he pulled Jian Ruyu back, who widened her eyes and hastily pleaded, "Junior Brother, I was wrong... Mmm..."
Moments later, Lu Yi finally released Jian Ruyu, and the two left the Cave Mansion heading towards Liu Ningshuang's Cave Mansion entrance.
By then, Jian Ruyu's face had returned to its usual calm. Lu Yi spoke up, "Senior Sister! Senior Sister Ruyu is here." Your next read is at My Virtual Library Empire
It wasn't long before the doors to the Cave Mansion opened, and Liu Ningshuang emerged, appearing like a moon palace Immortal.
Upon seeing her long-missed friend, even Liu Ningshuang's cool and detached expression broke into a smile as she approached: "Ruyu, it's been so long since we've seen each other, how are you today?"
