Xuantian 1: Ancient Xuandongtian

Chapter 289 Hidden Dangers
"If you don't want to talk about it, that's fine. I respect your freedom."

Mu Hanchan said.

However, Qin Xi still mustered her courage and said, "I may be unable to have children..."

"Ah... Oh...!"

Mu Hanchan was taken aback for a moment, then quickly understood.

"I thought it was something else..."

"You don't care about this...? Aren't all men like this...?"

Qin Xi asked in surprise.

"If I were a mortal, of course I would care. But I'm not anymore..."

Cultivators practice in order to attain enlightenment and achieve immortality.

They do not reproduce like ordinary people.

However, this path is too long and lonely, which is why a companion is needed.

After listening, Qin Xi remained silent, seemingly processing the information and assessing the veracity of Mu Hanchan's words.

"Alright, I'm going to start cultivating now."

Oh, and if Shengsheng brings back the Sanyuan purified water, remember to let me know.

Mu Hanchan gave her instructions.

"Ok."

Just as Mu Hanchan was about to enter the east wing, Qin Xi suddenly asked, "Do you still miss her?"

Mu Hanchan paused for a moment, then turned around and said, "I don't want to think about it anymore... and I feel a huge sense of relief without her."

Seeing Mu Hanchan break free from the extremely damaging relationship, Qin Xi couldn't help but feel a little sentimental.

But then she asked a more direct and essential question: "So what kind of relationship do you have with her now?"

"It should be... a familiar stranger."

"Okay, I know."

"Ah."

Qin Xi found her answer, and Mu Hanchan also opened a door afterward.

That is the door to a woman's heart.

……

The Serpent Gang.

"Oh dear, Chief Xiao, what's that tiger paw of yours? It's swollen up like a pig's trotter! Hehe!"

"The Snake Princess laughed."

She swayed her slender waist and walked seductively toward Xiao Tiehu.

"Stop talking nonsense and give me the top-grade snake oil right now. The spirit stones are in the bag."

Xiao Tiehu said impatiently.

"Oh, I don't want Chief Xiao's spirit stones. How about Chief Xiao repays me with his body and stays in my boudoir tonight?"

The Snake Queen, her eyes filled with affection, approached Xiao Tiehu and spoke.

"Don't try that with me. I'll trade spirit stones for snake oil. Stop talking nonsense and give it to me right now. I'm in a hurry to get back."

Xiao Tiehu said.

"Okay, okay, you're so clueless."

The Snake Queen was helpless. Despite her outstanding figure and alluring charm, she was powerless against a straight-laced man like Xiao Tiehu.

Therefore, the only option was to give him snake oil in exchange for something of equal value.

on the way back.

"Boss, those women from the Spirit Serpent Gang are really charming; they've even stirred something in me."

The younger brother said, swallowing hard.

Xiao Tiehu looked at him expressionlessly and said, "If you want to die, go sleep with her."

"No, no, no, I didn't mean that..."

"However, she won't be interested in you. She wants someone with abundant Yang energy and strong spiritual power. Those people are just like furnaces to her, you know?"

I seriously suspect that this woman obtained some secret forbidden technique from the Demonic Joyful Union Sect. Almost all the men who slept with her died from exhaustion of their spiritual energy.

Ordinary lovemaking techniques aren't that powerful; at most, they'll leave a man weak for a few days, but they can't possibly drain him completely.

Xiao Tiehu frowned and said, seemingly with a thoughtful doubt.

Upon hearing this, the younger brother immediately tensed up and dared not think any further.

The Serpent Gang.

The Snake Princess was gently twisting her body in front of a full-length mirror several feet tall, seemingly admiring her own graceful figure, or perhaps studying and figuring out how to become even more alluring and seductive.

However, upon closer inspection, one would notice that her skin had begun to crack, as if it lacked the nourishment of spiritual energy.

Furthermore, there are shadows beneath the skin, as if the scales are about to burst through.

"Boss!"

"what happened?"

"The Snake Princess said with a cold face."

"Seeking an agreement on the gold standards of the mine."

"Oh, let him in."

"Yes."

After a while, Jin Gui came in.

"Greetings, Snake Queen Leader."

The golden rules govern the way of etiquette.

Snake Queen sized up Golden Ruler. Although he was not handsome, he had a certain masculine charm and abundant spiritual power, suggesting that he had been cultivating himself in the last two years.

"Oh, what brings you here?"

"Lord Kuling needs the Three Elements Pure Water and has specially ordered me to come and make the transaction."

"That's what Jin Gui said."

"His hands are cracked again?"

"Uh, I don't know."

The Snake Princess asked again, "Did you come here just for this?"

"Yes."

"That makes me a little sad. I thought you missed me."

The Snake Princess looked at Jin Gui with affection in her eyes and said.

"Snake Queen, I dare not be presumptuous."

Jin Gui glanced at the Snake Princess's extremely graceful figure, secretly swallowed, but his eyes were fixed on her swaying hips.

"What if I wanted you to act recklessly?"

The Snake Princess slowly approached until the two were within a foot of each other.

The golden rule is to neither retreat nor advance, and just stand there stagnant.

"I…"

Seeing her heart flutter, the Snake Princess took Jin Gui's hand and placed it on her slender waist.

Jin Gui immediately felt a soft, delicate texture, but with a strange, slightly cool sensation.

After a while.

Jin Gui immediately withdrew his hand, bowed, and said, "Please, Snake Queen, exchange some three yuan worth of pure water for me. I need to hurry back to the mine to report."

"Hehe! Okay, then come with me to get it."

After saying this, Snake Princess went into her inner chamber.

Jin Gui hesitated for a long time, but gritted his teeth and followed her in.

Kuling Mine.

"Senior Sister Li, what's wrong? You don't seem very happy these days."

"Blue Eyes said."

"nothing…"

"How could there be nothing wrong? You went out in the middle of the night last night and went to Lord Kulingshi's door."

But in the end, you didn't knock on the door.

Li Nan immediately said, "You were following me?"

"You're overthinking it, senior sister."

Have you forgotten the cultivation technique I practice? If I stand on even a slightly higher vantage point, I can see everything clearly within a hundred feet.

I could even see that your expression was clearly not good at the time.

"..."

"But I'm curious, why are you unhappy?"

Li Nan paused for a moment and then said, "That Lady Qin Xi, she was staying in my old room."

"So what? Didn't you already move to the back hill? Are you preventing others from living there?"

Blue Eyes countered with a question.

"Furthermore, I feel that we have already received enough kindness from Lord Kulingshi. He tested our spiritual roots, provided us with cultivation resources, and even renovated our dormitories in this back mountain."

To put it bluntly, without other families, we would all still just be children in the village playing in the mud, catching insects, and stealing bird eggs.

How could one possibly find this path to immortality?

Lan Tong continued, her words so certain that Li Nan had nothing to say.

At that moment, Han Xiao suddenly arrived.

"Senior Sister Li, could you please give me two Water-attribute Nourishing Meridian Pills?"

Without saying a word, Li Nan gave him two.

Then Lan Tong left as well.

The three of them cultivated in completely different ways.

The main attacker was Han Xiao.

The main defender is Li Nan.

One person is the main assistant, and that person is Blue Eyes.

This is the rudimentary form of the three major cultivation forces in the mine, and they have already formed a perfectly complementary cycle.

……

Yunyang Sect, Ziyun Mountain, Yin-Yang Gate.

"Senior Luo, what brings you here!"

A young man quickly stepped forward to greet him.

"Oh, it's my nephew Lan Chen. What? Your exchange period isn't over yet?"

"That's what the cultivator surnamed Luo said."

"It'll be soon, still another 60 years, but I've applied for an extension, so I should be able to stay for another 60 years."

Lan Chen replied.

"Don't postpone it, go back as soon as possible."

"What do you mean by that, Senior Luo?"

The cultivator surnamed Luo said, "Many sects in the central region are very hostile to the Three Clouds Land, and this place may not be safe in the future."

"Oh, alright... then what is Senior Luo's purpose in doing this?"

"Sigh, isn't it all about the murder of those eleven direct descendants? I was also a member of the investigation team, but it was all for nothing."

First of all, I don't believe anyone below the Spirit Condensation Realm can kill eleven or twelve direct disciples of the Spirit Origin Realm with all high-level magic weapons in a short period of time.

Still keeping quiet?
To be honest, even I'm not sure if I could instantly kill them without using true spiritual techniques.

The cultivator surnamed Luo complained.

"That's true. I wonder what the Central Dokyo clan is thinking."

"Ugh…"

"By the way, Senior Luo, has your cultivation level improved?"

Lan Chen asked.

The cultivator surnamed Luo asked warily, "Why are you asking this, kid? Are you trying to find out about me?"

"No, no, no, senior, you are overthinking it."

Lan Chen then added, "My master once mentioned you and sent me a bottle of fifth-grade Jade Marrow Pills. I hope you will accept them."

After saying that, he took out a bottle of pills.

After taking it, the cultivator surnamed Luo asked, "Master, which master is this? Is he from the Ice Profound Sect or the Yin-Yang Sect?"

"Of course it's the Ice Profound Sect, the sect leader of the Yin Yang Sect. We Ice Profound Sect exchange students usually call him our substitute master."

Lan Chen explained.

"Fine, fine, I can't be bothered with all this nonsense..."

The cultivator surnamed Luo complained, but still pocketed the Jade Marrow Pill.

He then casually asked, "Do you think it's possible for a Spirit Origin Realm cultivator to instantly kill eleven or twelve fully armed direct disciples equipped with high-level magic weapons in just three breaths?"

Lan Chen thought for a moment,
The reply was: "Theoretically, there's a slight possibility, but in reality, it's almost impossible."

The cultivator surnamed Luo said, "Hehe, your words are like a recitation of a classic text."

"Forehead…"

Lan Chen was a little embarrassed, so he explained, "I once met a cultivator in the Condensation Realm. He was only at the ninth level at the time, but he could barely withstand my ordinary attack from the Condensation Realm and my dynamic spiritual power attack."

That's why I said there's a slight possibility.

"Oh, when did this happen? And which sect did that Spirit Condensation Realm cultivator belong to?"

The cultivator surnamed Luo asked casually.

"It was seven or eight years ago."

"It's from the Demonic Life Sect, and my senior sister happens to be in that sect too."

The cultivator surnamed Luo immediately regained his composure and asked, "Is your senior sister named Lan Yan?"

"Yeah, how do you know?"

“We investigated this door just a few days ago.”

Lan Chen asked, "Did you see that Qi Condensation cultivator I fought before?"

"Which disciple is he?"

"It should be seventh."

After a brief conversation, the cultivator surnamed Luo immediately found Lu Yuan and, after some discussion,...

Find a jade slip,

From ordinary to suspected to potential danger to high risk to extremely dangerous, these are the five labels.
They removed the "hazard label" and replaced the "ordinary" label.
