I started by controlling his master, and the protagonist begged me to slow down my kicking.

Ok?

Nangong Jiusheng naturally noticed this unusual situation as well.

She raised her eyebrows slightly, looking at Cheng Ran with a puzzled expression:

"What happened just now?"

"Um......"

Cheng Ran hesitated for a moment, he hadn't expected his master to be so bold.

How dare they do this before the Holy Lord...

After a moment, he pointed to the Divine Sword of Destiny on the sword rack and said without changing his expression:

"Your Majesty, this is my sword. Before your arrival, I was practicing swordsmanship..."

"However, this junior's sword is a bit special. When I am excited during cultivation, it will emit some impurities of spiritual energy."

Nangong Jiusheng frowned upon hearing this:

"But I just heard a woman's voice."

Damn... those ears are really sharp.

Master seemed to have unconsciously hummed a little just now.

Cheng Ran cleared his throat, still resorting to lies and denial:

"Your Majesty must have misheard."

Did I hear that right?

How could I possibly have misheard?

Nangong Jiusheng stared at Cheng Ran, knowing that he was probably lying.

However, as a powerful cultivator at the Mahayana Realm, she didn't need to hold a grudge against a mere youth, so she didn't pursue the matter further.

Anyway, she met Cheng Ran today, so her goal was achieved.

Why bother about what this young man was doing?

It can't be that simple...

Is this young man engaged in dual cultivation with the female cultivator from the holy land who was responsible for escorting him?

"That's because I'm overthinking it."

"Since we are born to cultivate swordsmanship, let's leave it at that for today."

Nangong Jiusheng's exquisite and elegant face remained expressionless as she gazed intently at the seven-colored lotus in Cheng Ran's hand.

"Carefully tend to this colorful lotus; its origin and continuation are all contained within it."

"I believe that you, with your future talents, will surely gain some insight."

As soon as she finished speaking, her figure disappeared without a trace.

Only a faint purple glow remained.

Extremely pretentious.

And only after the fragrance on her body had completely dissipated.

Cheng Ran finally breathed a sigh of relief.

He looked at the seven-colored lotus given to him by Nangong Jiusheng and couldn't help but smile wickedly.

This trip to the Jade Pool Holy Land was definitely worthwhile; I even ran into the beautiful and kind-hearted Holy Master Nangong...

Don't ask why I say that Lord Nangong is kind-hearted...

Women whose breasts are bigger than their heads are all kind-hearted!

Take Master, for example.

Now that it was safe, Cheng Ran reached out and lifted the cloth covering the table.

Gong Yueli was curled up and lying in the cramped space, her face flushed, and her abdomen, marked with the Imperial Immortal Seal, was slightly swollen.

Cheng Ran said with a grin:

"Master, you can come out now."

Gong Yueli, however, did not move.

She gave Cheng Ran a cold glance, and said in a low voice, her breath slightly out of sync:

"You unfilial disciple... how come you treat Saint Master Nangong with such respect, yet you always bully your master?"

Cheng Ran shrugged and said innocently:

"Master, how have I wronged you?"

That shameless scoundrel!

Gong Yueli was even more furious upon hearing this, and said irritably:

"You haven't bullied me yet? Just now, because of you, our secret was almost exposed in front of the Holy Lord..."

"Then you weren't exposed, were you?"

Cheng Ran didn't take it seriously at all. After a moment, he looked at Gong Yueli with a mocking expression:

"and......"

"Is it possible that during that final period, it was you, Master, who took the initiative?"

"I......"

Gong Yueli's already flushed face instantly became so hot it felt like it was steaming.

Her lips parted slightly; although she was very unhappy, she couldn't find a reason to refute it.

After all, just now under the table...

She is indeed...

And to be honest, it was actually quite exciting to do it in front of the Holy Lord...

Pshaw! What am I thinking!

Gong Yueli shook off the thought and hurriedly explained:

"It's merely forging my sword heart; if I stop halfway, with my cultivation level, I might very well suffer a qi deviation..."

However, as she spoke, she turned her head to the side, her words appearing weak and powerless.

"Yeah......"

Cheng Ran simply ignored her and shook her head.

He snapped his fingers, and the soundproof barrier rose again.

"?!"

Gong Yueli panicked immediately.

That's how it is when you get to know someone; you can tell what they're going to do just from one gesture.

Her eyes trembled. Today she had reaped a huge profit and had long harbored the idea of ​​making a million-dollar exit:

"No... at least let me rest for a bit."

"Let me first tell you how to use this seven-colored lotus... um~"

He had only spoken halfway through his sentence.

Gong Yueli unconsciously raised her swan-like neck high, and her gaze suddenly lost its color!

"~♡!!"

......

......

Jade Pool, a sacred place, a magnificent palace.

Nangong Jiusheng stood by the railing, gazing quietly at the sky, which was beginning to turn twilight.

In the sky, a huge flying boat rose up and sailed into the clouds.

And at this very moment.

Suddenly, a wave of fragrant aroma swept over them.

Nangong Jiusheng glanced to the side and saw a girl in purple slowly walk to her side.

The girl's beautiful eyes were as red as blood, her long hair, tied up with a phoenix hairpin, cascaded down to her waist, and her figure was slender and graceful.

"Master."

She called out softly.

In the sacred land of Yaochi, there is only one person who can address Nangong Jiusheng in such a way...

The woman's identity is obvious.

That is Luo Qingyao, the Holy Maiden of Yaochi and the sixth most beautiful woman in the Nine Provinces!

Nangong Jiusheng nodded slightly and said in a gentle tone:

"You're back?"

"Um."

Luo Qingyao nodded in agreement, then after a moment of contemplation, asked in a low voice:

"Master, what has happened in the Holy Land recently? Why, after Qingyao returned, did everyone hear discussing a disciple named Cheng Ran from the Primordial Holy Land?"

Nangong Jiusheng remained expressionless, her dazzling eyes revealing no emotion.

She simply and calmly told Luo Qingyao what had happened at the Holy Land.

Luo Qingyao was slightly taken aback after hearing this:

"Is she really that powerful? Her strength is comparable to Mu Yunxi's, isn't it?"

"perhaps."

Nangong Jiusheng closed her starry eyes slightly and said in a calm tone:

"I gave him that seven-colored lotus; I wonder if he will give me a pleasant surprise..."

What is a seven-colored lotus?

Luo Qingyao pursed her lips after hearing this, wondering what the Holy Lord was talking about.

However, she was used to it; the Holy Lord had always been a bit of a riddle-maker.

"Oh, right."

At this moment, Nangong Jiusheng suddenly called out to her again:

"What did you and your father discuss during your trip back to Dongzhou?"

"It's nothing, I have no attachment to that place."

Luo Qingyao bowed her head and then calmly replied:

"They simply called off the engagement."

......

......

Six days later.

The airship landed safely.

Through continuous sword duels, Cheng Ran also gained a lot.

[Gong Yueli's submission level +13%, current submission level 26%, another 4% increase will unlock the third stage of submission level rewards.]

【"Return to Nothingness" Sword Technique, Current Progress: 7000/15000 (Minor Success)】

It can be said that their strength has increased significantly.

It made him laugh very happily.

It's just a pity that while some people are laughing, others are crying.

After arriving at the Primordial Holy Land, Master Dog went straight back to Biluo Palace without looking back.

He was saying that Wenjian Peak didn't have such a wicked disciple and that he should be expelled from the list.

Cheng Ran just smiled at this.

It's still not enough to chisel it out...

However, he did not continue to pursue the sword competition at Biluo Palace, but returned to his own home.

Then they found an open space and placed the seven-colored lotus that Nangong Jiusheng had sent.

The seven-colored lotus needs to be watered with spiritual power.

As for when it will bloom, there is no fixed time.

According to records, some say it takes ten years, some say a hundred years, and some even say it must be watered until it dies...

But in short, even with great strength, bricks can fly, and if you fill them with water every day, they will eventually bloom.

only......

Cheng Ran gazed at the illusory lotus flower, a question lingering in his mind:

"No, the seven-colored lotus given by the Holy Lord is quite different from the one I saw in the ancient books."

"But the book doesn't say that everything should be based on the actual product."

"Could it be that the Holy Lord has some other intention?"

Cheng Ran was puzzled.

After this period of contact, he has discovered that those in the Mahayana realm of this world tend to say one thing and mean another.

Just like Master and Palace Master Lu, what they say and what they think are completely different.

buzzing-

Just as he was pondering this, the communication talisman on Cheng Ran's waist suddenly rang.

When he opened it, he saw that it was a message from Senior Sister Mu.

He then infused it with spiritual power.

The characters appeared in the air.

"You lecherous scoundrel, when will you come to Yunyao Pavilion to cure my poison?"
