I don't want to be trained by my senior sister!

Fang Xuan planned to go find his senior sister first.

He raised his hand to clear the space and stepped in.

Ning Qian was sitting cross-legged in the corner of the space, with her eyes closed.

Various miscellaneous items she had collected floated around her, along with several cultivation manuals and a pile of magical artifacts.

And there's that lump of black mud in the corner, making a squelching sound.

She sensed his presence and opened her eyes.

Fang Xuan then recounted what had just happened.

Lu Zheng killed two Immortal Venerables, granting him the Law of Time and allowing him to hide in a spatial realm. Xing Fa led a search party...

Ning Qian listened, her brows furrowing deeper and deeper.

Ning Qian was silent for a moment, then she raised her eyes, her gaze cold: "Kill him."

Fang Xuan said, "That's what I think too, but it would be a bit of a waste to kill him now, since he still possesses the Law of Time."

He stretched out his hand again, and a golden light appeared in his palm.

"This is just a tiny bit he gave me. If I could get more, my understanding of the laws of time would be much faster."

Ning Qian looked at the light in his palm and remained silent for a few seconds.

Then she spoke, her voice still cool and indifferent: "Then we'll kill them later."

Fang Xuan thought for a moment.

"Pretend to accept his surrender first, make him hand over a sliver of the Time Law every month, and then kill him when he's completely drained or no longer useful."

"At least we need to keep it under control," Ning Qian added.

"Um......"

The two exchanged a glance and reached an agreement.

Fang Xuan stood up.

"Then I'll go in and meet him first."

But just as he was about to make room, his wrist was suddenly grabbed.

When he turned around, his senior sister was looking at him with a fierce gaze.

"Don't spend too much time alone with him."

Fang Xuan was stunned for a moment.

"ah.....?"

Ning Qian still tried her best to keep a straight face: "I said, you are not allowed to spend too much time alone with him."

"Okay, senior sister."

Ning Qian then released her grip, but still added worriedly, "If you dare stay too long, I'll..."

She thought about it for a while, but couldn't come up with any deterrent punishment.

In the end, all I could do was hum in response.

Fang Xuan looked at her slightly reddened ears and couldn't do anything about it.

Haha, my wife is fierce, I dare not resist.

He smiled, parted the space, and stepped inside.

.......

In another space.

Lu Zheng was sitting cross-legged, surrounded by a faint crimson light.

The two immortal corpses beside him were already shriveled, clearly indicating that their souls had been completely refined.

He opened his eyes upon sensing Fang Xuan's entry.

"Young friend Fang has arrived!"

Fang Xuan stopped opposite him, said nothing, and just looked at him.

Lu Zheng wasn't embarrassed at all and went straight to the point.

"I know you don't trust me, but I can offer you terms."

He raised his hand, and a wisp of golden light condensed at his fingertips.

"The law of time, I condense it into a thread every month and give it to you, just to make a friend."

Fang Xuan looked at the ray of light without saying a word.

Lu Zheng continued, "I know you're probably thinking about whether or not to kill me, but I can tell you, I'm no threat to you. I just want to follow you around and take advantage of your situation."

He paused, then smiled candidly.

Fang Xuan was silent for a few seconds before he spoke.

"Sure, but I have one condition."

"you say."

Fang Xuan raised his hand, and crimson lust laws surged from his fingertips.

"Let a wisp of my law enter your heart."

Lu Zheng was stunned for a moment... Heart meridian?

He thought about it for a moment and quickly understood.

This is a means of control.

The Law of Lust resides around the heart meridian; if there is any unusual movement, one's energy can be instantly drained, turning one into a dried-up corpse.

That was ruthless enough, but it actually made him feel more at ease.

Fang Xuan's willingness to control him indicates that he genuinely intends to keep him alive, rather than simply killing him to seize the treasure.

After all, he was only there to play dumb, so he had to befriend this biggest backer.

Otherwise, with his current crippled body, he would never be able to return to the Dao Ancestor Realm in his entire life.

"Okay." Lu Zheng nodded without hesitation.

Fang Xuan lightly touched his fingertip, and a sliver of crimson light entered Lu Zheng's chest.

Lu Zheng felt a slight warmth in his chest, and then he felt nothing more.

He stood up with a smile and patted his clothes.

"Then it's settled. I'll give you a wisp of the Time Law every month, on time."

Fang Xuan hummed in agreement.

Lu Zheng was in a great mood and prepared to leave.

Before leaving, he turned back to look at Fang Xuan one last time: "By the way, your Law of Lust... is quite powerful."

Fang Xuan: "..."

That sounds a little odd, but... I don't think my senior sister will mind...

This isn't exactly impressive, is it?

......

Outside the space, inside the main hall.

Ning Qian unconsciously twisted her sleeve.

She stared at the space Fang Xuan had entered, her heart growing increasingly agitated.

Why isn't my junior brother coming out yet?

It's been so long.

Why was he able to spend so much time alone with his junior brother?

She never intended to keep Lu Zheng around; she never did from the beginning.

A person who has ulterior motives towards his junior brother...

Although it seems like he's just seeking refuge, who knows if he has other intentions?

Ning Qian bit her lower lip...

But that person is still useful.

The law of time is the key to unlocking the secret of her reincarnation...

She needs her junior brother to approach him and obtain those laws.

So we still have to rely on my junior brother...

But thinking about how good and obedient her junior brother was to her, she felt even more uncomfortable.

Why isn't it coming out yet?

.......

Just as he was thinking this, the space rippled slightly, and Lu Zheng stepped out from inside.

Ning Qian looked up.

Then her gaze settled on Lu Zheng.

That aura... it's the law of lust.

The junior brother's laws of lust apply to him.

Ning Qian's eyes widened.

What exactly did my junior brother do with him in the space?

They've even used the laws of lust?!

Lu Zheng glanced at her briefly, then left without lingering.

Ning Qian was left alone in the main hall again.

Junior brother, how could you... do this?

She immediately felt wronged.

They carved out space and retreated back to their own little corner of the world.

Then she huddled in the corner and buried her face in her knees.

My eyes started to sting.

Junior brother... how could you do this?

That thing clearly belonged only to her...

She can accept her junior brother becoming stronger, and she can accept him using other laws on others.

But the law of lust doesn't work.

That's... the thing her junior brother used to "punish" her every time.

Now, my junior brother has given it to someone else.

Even though it was just a trace, and even though it might not be what she thought, she still felt very uncomfortable.

What's next?

Will there be more in the future...? Will there be female cultivators?

Those female cultivators were all so beautiful and so seductive.

What if my junior brother can't control himself...?

What if my junior brother also uses the law of lust on them...?

And there was nothing she could do but watch helplessly, becoming a powerless senior sister...

Ning Qian bit her lower lip, her eyes growing increasingly red.

She could kill those nuns.

But what good would killing him do...? My junior brother has already used him.

The laws of lust have already been left in someone else's body.

Just thinking about it makes her feel terribly miserable...

.......

Just as I was thinking this, the space rippled slightly again.

Fang Xuan emerged from the crack.

He spotted Ning Qian huddled in the corner at a glance.

Why did my senior sister hide in here? Wasn't she supposed to be waiting for him outside?

"What's wrong, Senior Sister...?"

Ning Qian looked up at him, her eyes red-rimmed, with tiny teardrops still clinging to her eyelashes.

Fang Xuan was slightly taken aback.

Why is my senior sister crying? Is it true?

Ning Qian continued to look at him, her eyes filled with grievance.

She gritted her teeth and said, "Do you know you were wrong?"

Fang Xuan casually replied, "Alright, Senior Sister, let's not play around with that for now. I need to refine the Law of Time first."

He thought his senior sister was still playing the same old punishment games.

The newly acquired Time Law needs to be refined and absorbed as soon as possible to become one's own.

But Ning Qian's eyes reddened even more upon hearing this.

"No," she shook her head. "Not good at all."

"Why did you implant the Law of Lust into other people's bodies?" Ning Qian stared at him, her voice growing increasingly aggrieved. "It can only be mine."

Fang Xuan: "......."

He knew it...

"Senior sister...don't cry, I'll give you two doses of the Law of Lust."

Ning Qian, her eyes still red, squatted on the ground shaking her head, completely disregarding her usual aloof image.

"No, I want one hundred shares..."
