Ch331 - Seclusion

Half a month later, in the cave.

Sitting on the bed, Jiang Yuantu was meditating, and beside him was a small green snake, watching him affectionately.

Slowly opening his eyes, Jiang Yuantu looked at the snake beside him. “What are you looking at me for? What’s so interesting about other people cultivating?”

“Others don’t look good when cultivating, but you look better when you’re the one doing it because you are more handsome.” As she spoke, the green snake slithered into Jiang Yuantu’s lap.

“Are you almost healed?” Jiang Yuantu asked seriously, staring at the snake lying on his lap.

“What, are you going to drive me away? Are you willing to do that?” Transforming into human form, Qingmei looked at Jiang Yuantu aggrievedly.

“You don’t wear clothes every time you transform?” Frowning helplessly, Jiang Yuantu waved his hand, and a robe fell on the woman.

“What are you afraid of? I don’t mind being looked at by you.” Rolling out of Jiang Yuantu’s arms, Qingmei leaned against the foot of the bed, propped her head on one hand, and stared at the man in front of her obsessively. Most of her body was covered, but her fair calves and lotus-like tender arms were still exposed.

Looking at such a casual green plum, Jiang Yuantu squinted his eyes, reached out and pinched the opponent’s chin, and moved closer to him. “You really want to be my woman?”

Hearing the man’s question, Qingmei pursed her lips and smiled. “Of course.”

“Why?” Staring at the other party’s bright eyes, Jiang Yuantu asked again.

“No reason, you are the most distinctive man I’ve ever met, I like you.” With a gentle smile,

Qingmei confessed generously. Although Jiang Yuantu was a man with a cold appearance, he was still a very nice person. During the time she was injured, the other party gave her a lot of pills and external wound medicines. Moreover, if a person was not dazzled by her beauty, one could be regarded as a rare gentleman. Qingmei had a sincere love for Jiang Yuantu, and it was not a hypocrisy.

Qingmei was stunned. This was completely different from what she thought. It never occurred to her that this man would say these things to her. “You? You want to marry me?”

“Why not?” Jiang Yuantu asked back.

“But, wouldn’t it be better if we just have a casual affair?” As she spoke, Qingmei moved closer. However, Jiang Yuantu got out of the way of her touch.

“What I want is not to spend tonight or just casual nights together but to spend the rest of our life together. What I want is your heart.” Staring at Qingmei with burning eyes, Jiang Yuantu said stubbornly.

“I…” Looking at the serious look of the man, Qingmei raised her slender eyebrows.

“I am the Third Elder of the Lingwu Sect and an eighth-level Alchemist. If I want to find a woman to warm my bed, it is very easy. But, what I want is not that kind of woman, what I want is a woman who loves me, understands me, and is willing to spend the rest of her life with me. A woman without a heart is just a body, and even the most beautiful body is still a body. It’s no different from a puppet. I don’t need a heartless woman.” Looking at Qingmei in the eyes, Jiang Yuantu said categorically.

“This…” Hearing this, Qingmei was speechless.

“If you can’t give me what I want. Then, you’d better not like me. Please leave when you recover from your injury. You and I are destined not to be on the same path.” As he spoke, Jiang Yuantu’s figure sat on the ground beside her and a semicircular shield appeared on his body.

Looking at Jiang Yuantu who was sitting inside the protective shield and cultivating with his eyes closed, Qingmei couldn’t help but frown. She couldn’t help but feel a little bitter in her heart, perhaps, the two of them were destined to be different.

In the early morning of the next day, Jiang Yuantu opened his eyes and was silent for a long time as he looked at the empty cave. With a flash of his figure, he came to the bed, picked up a golden snake hairpin that had fallen on the bed, and waved away Qingmei’s luxurious big bed. Jiang Yuantu unconsciously clenched the hairpin in his hand. There was a self-deprecating smile on the corner of his mouth. It seemed that he was destined to die alone forever.

***

Three years later……

Looking at his lover standing in front of him, Liu Mufeng couldn’t help but raise the corners of his mouth. “Good. In thirty years, you’ve already advanced to the six-stars in the Spiritual Profound Realm. You’ve raised a small realm.”

Jiang Xu sighed softly. “Hays, after advancing to the Spiritual Profound Realm, I feel that every small realm is very strenuous.” Jiang Xu felt a little helpless.

“Don’t say that. You’ve advanced fast enough. If other Seniors hear you saying that you’re slow to advance, they’ll beat you up.” Liu Mufeng smiled helplessly.

“Yeah, we have the bracelet dimension and spiritual treasures in our hands. The speed of advancement is already very fast.” Nodding, Jiang Xu naturally understood that their speed of advancement was much faster than that of ordinary cultivators.

“It’s good that you know. In fact, even if you don’t have the bracelet dimension, your cultivation aptitude is considered top-notch, so don’t complain about the slow advancement.” Liu Mufeng said helplessly as he pinched the tip of his lover’s nose. HisXiaoXu was the main villain in the book. Eight-point luck, a single golden root cultivator, how could such a person have poor cultivation qualifications?

“Mufeng, how was everything at your end? Those people didn’t come to assassinate you, did they?” Jiang Xu asked worriedly.

“I’m fine. Just as you went into seclusion, those six people also went into seclusion. Shi Li and Xiao Yun have gone back to their respective families to seclude and the other four were secluded in the sect. No one came to trouble me, and, a month ago, Uncle Chen Dong recovered, and Senior Chen and Uncle Chen have left the sect.” Looking at his wife with a smile, Liu Mufeng explained the same carefully.

“All six of them are in seclusion? What are they doing?” Hearing that the six were in seclusion, Jiang Xu had a strange expression on his face.

“Maybe it’s their last sprint, thinking about raising their own strength before the Stone Clan ruins are opened. Of course, it may also be to avoid our pursuit.” With a chuckle, Liu Mufeng said with a sneer.

“En, it’s also possible.” Jiang Xu agreed with this. “By the way, you said Senior Chen Dong was cured by you?”

“Yes, he is cured. After three years of treatment, he is finally cured. This is also thanks to the Seventh Princess of the Snake Clan for providing me with a lot of poisonous weeds, and Elder Zhu for helping me a lot, the two of us came up with a medicated bath that is suitable with medicinal pills, and this medicated bath has a great auxiliary effect on the management of soul power.” If it weren’t for this medicated bath, then Chen Dong would not have recovered so quickly. So, Elder Zhu helped a lot this time.

“Oh, that’s right. Then you have to thank the Seventh Princess and Elder Zhu.” After Mufeng healed Chen Dong, he could get a jade card for a cultivator in the Spiritual Sacred Realm. Jade cards were hard to come by and with this thing, Mufeng and himself had a three-point ability to protect themselves, which was a great thing.

“En, I gave Seventh Princess a lot of pills, and I also gave Elder Zhu a sum of spirit stones.” The two of them helped a lot, and naturally Liu Mufeng would not neglect them.

“By the way, Mufeng, what about the auction? Have you seen the auction flyer? Is there anything we need?” Jiang Xu asked.

“En, I saw a few things we need. I’ve already discussed it with Elder Qian and Senior Brother Bai. We’ll leave for Tianbao City in ten days.” Liu Mufeng had already prepared for this matter.

“Oh.” Nodding, Jiang Xu expressed his understanding and thought to himself:Fortunately, I got out of seclusion in time, otherwise, I would have missed the auction.

While speaking, the messenger jade tablet on Liu Mufeng’s waist lit up. Taking a look, Liu Mufeng smiled. “XiaoXu, the poisonous weeds from the Seventh Princess are here, do you want to go with me to meet the Seventh Princess?”

“Seventh Princess? The one from the Snake Clan?” Jiang Xu smiled when he thought of that carefree Senior Qingmei.

“Yes, Senior Qingmei, you have seen her before.” Liu Mufeng said patiently with a smile.

“But, didn’t she give the messenger jade pendant to Uncle? How could it be in your hands? Or did she give you another jade pendant?” Jiang Xu was very curious about this.

“Oh, this is the one she gave to Master. I often buy poisonous weeds from Princess Qingmei, so Master gave me this jade pendant to get in touch with her.” Liu Mufeng always felt that there was something wrong with this matter, but he couldn’t pinpoint what was exactly wrong.

“He gave it to you? Didn’t Pianpian say that Master and Qingmei have a three-points of fate? Why did Master Uncle give you the jade pendant?Ei, he missed the opportunity to meet Qingmei for nothing.” Jiang Xu felt a little regretful.

“I don’t know why. Three years ago, shortly after you went into seclusion, Master gave me this jade pendant.” Regarding this matter, Liu Mufeng was also very curious, but since it was Master’s private matter, he didn’t want to ask too much, but, from the first time when Qingmei discovered that the person holding the jade pendant to meet her was not Master but himself, and from the disappointed expression shown by the other party, Liu Mufeng could imagine that something must have happened between Qingmei and his Master. Otherwise, Master would not suddenly give him the messenger jade pendant. However, only the two concerned parties knew what the situation was.

“That’s it, then it seems that Master and Qingmei are over and done. Let’s go, let’s meet the Seventh Princess of the Snake Clan.” Jiang Xu said with a smile. Pianpian clearly said that it was a three-point relationship, could it be that Pianpian misunderstood it?

“Okay.” Nodding, Liu Mufeng left the house with his partner.
