Chapter 137: 105, Liu Ruoxue: Are you coming again? I'm almost developing megalophobia.
The sky was a muddy teal, and the chaotic rain was enchanting.
The delicate, snow-white body was stiff like a white fish, and after a long while, the stunningly beautiful girl, lying on the bright pink skirt with her hair damp and disheveled, finally woke from her spasms.
But her delicate eyebrows were still tightly furrowed, and her long eyelashes still bore glistening tears.
Feeling an unprecedented powerful sensation within her, Liu Ruoxue was first slightly startled, then her eyes showed disbelief, "My cultivation has improved?"
She had never imagined that such a thing would happen.
Although the powerful feeling inside her was still crystal clear, Liu Ruoxue still found it hard to believe.
She even suspected that the intensity of the previous events had induced a hallucination.
After all, because they had rushed into the imperial city on their own accord, the whole city had gone on alert, with numerous cultivators and guards starting their search.
Even though Xu Yuan told her he had ways to conceal their presence, under that kind of unusually stimulating situation where they could be spotted at any moment, she was repeatedly knocked off her mount by Xu Yuan before she finally gained the upper hand.
But he was the legendary Unicorn Sky Bull, just like the Nine Tails Heavenly Fox, endowed with nine lives.
Their hearts blossomed eighty-one times with joy, and even though Liu Ruoxue was a Core Formation cultivator and physically stronger than him, a Foundation Establishment cultivator, she still found it somewhat too intense to bear.
This caused her mind to remain somewhat dazed even at this moment.
After all, her Master had once told her that Dual Cultivation was far from a true path.
Unless there was a specific Dual Cultivation Method, Dual Cultivation was harmful and beneficial to their cultivation. Even with the Dual Cultivation Method, overindulgence could cause one to sink into distraction and desires, unable to extricate oneself. Once one departed from Dual Cultivation, they would find regular cultivation lackluster and unappealing.
Most importantly, Dual Cultivation required both parties to have practiced the Dual Cultivation Method to proceed.
However, she had not practiced it, yet her cultivation had surged dramatically after the recent event.
Thus, Liu Ruoxue was so astonished by this event.
"Are you alright, Xueer?"
Xu Yuan understood the shifts in the girl's mindset and knew it was time to act more considerately.
He also needed to bridge the gap between them somewhat, otherwise, he wasn't sure if Liu Ruoxue might overthink things.
Hearing this intimately affectionate name, Liu Ruoxue's cheeks flushed again, but she said nothing and shakily stood up, taking a new dress out of her storage bag.
Meanwhile, Xu Yuan took the opportunity to carefully pick up the rosy-stained pink dress from the ground.
"What are you doing?"
Liu Ruoxue's somewhat reddish ears still had traces of dampness.
"I thought, to keep it as a souvenir, although it was an accidental creation, I will take responsibility," Xu Yuan said with a smile, subtly.
Otherwise, once Liu Ruoxue came to her senses, she definitely would not let it go.
And if the item ended up in her hands, just imagine if one day she and Lin Qingque were arguing, and in a fit of anger, she brought out this item.
Then Xu Yuan would be hard-pressed to explain himself.
"A souvenir?"
Liu Ruoxue moved her lips slightly, but before she could say anything, Xu Yuan had already moved closer, touching her deeply blushed lips gently, and said softly, "It was quite difficult to endure just now, wasn't it?"
"You knew, did you?"
Liu Ruoxue glared at him irritably. Even now, she could still feel a swelling pain in her abdomen, and simultaneously, her mind involuntarily recalled the recent scene.
In the beginning, when the pain struck both of them at the same time, it nearly made her cry out involuntarily.
But Xu Yuan was completely oblivious to that, behaving as if it were he, not she, who was under the effect of the Charm Poison, not only showing no signs of slowing down but instead increasing his pace.
If it were not for him secretly setting up a soundproof Formation midway, they would have been discovered long ago.
But then she suddenly realized something and looked at him in astonishment, "You've achieved Core Formation?"
"Core Formation, indeed."
In response to her question, Xu Yuan admitted it calmly.
After all, there was nothing to hide; sooner or later, Liu Ruoxue would find out anyway.
"How is that possible?"
Liu Ruoxue looked at him, her eyes filled with doubt, "Have you learned the Dual Cultivation Method?"
"No, and what would it matter if I had? The Dual Cultivation Method requires that both participants have studied it," Xu Yuan resolutely shook his head, "Perhaps it's just my innate exceptional talent, do you want to try again?"
He was right, but... innate exceptional talent?
Remembering the overwhelming sensation and her inability to suppress herself after reaching the midway point, Liu Ruoxue subtly felt her legs begin to tremble again.
That was no longer just exceptional talent; that was reaching the pinnacle of excellence.
If the heavens had not given birth to Xu Yuan, the path of the cultivator would be as long as a perpetual night.
Who could stand as the peak at the end of the cultivator's path? Upon seeing Xu Yuan, all look like mere thorns.
She shook her head, her voice trembling, "Let's, let's not."
It would be the death of her, absolutely.
Even though she knew she was a cultivator, Liu Ruoxue couldn't help but turn her lovely face pale with fear, losing her radiant complexion.
Previously, it was alright because at that time, she had been affected by the enchantment medicine; although initially, it was as Master had described - extremely painful - but before long, under the influence of the Innate Dual Cultivation Holy Body, she had indulged in it.
Now, however, as she came to her senses and saw the traces they had created, she couldn't help but feel terrified. Your next journey awaits at empire
