Dual-wielding! 100x proficiency, I'll grind my way to godhood!

In a small courtyard east of Lin'an City on the Tianxuan Continent, Chen Mo pushed open the courtyard gate.

Xu Wanqing and Suyue were cultivating, while Qingzhu was squatting by the well washing vegetables.

Hearing the door open, all three looked towards the entrance.

"Young Master!!"

Qingzhu threw down the vegetables in her hand, lunged forward, and crashed her head into Chen Mo's arms.

"You've been gone for thirty-five days! A full thirty-five days!"

She counted them off on her fingers one by one for him, and then buried her face in his chest.

"I thought you didn't want us anymore..."

"Nonsense."

Chen Mo gently rubbed her head and blurted out instinctively.

"I could do without anyone else, but I can't do without you all."

Su Yue walked over, looked up at Chen Mo, her eyes red, said nothing, and turned to pour tea.

She brought the teacup over, her hand trembling, the water sloshing around.

Xu Wanqing walked directly to Chen Mo and hugged him tightly.

Chen Mo pulled all three of them into his arms.

Qingzhu nuzzled against his chest, Suyue pressed her face against his shoulder, and Xu Wanqing buried her face in his neck, taking a deep breath.

Like a drowning person who has finally reached the shore.

It took a while for the group to loosen their grip.

Xu Wanqing calmed down first.

She looked up, her face slightly flushed.

"Young master, these days... Protector Ruhua has been coming often."

"Oh?"

Chen Mo sat down on the stone bench.

"What is she doing here?"

"she……"

Xu Wanqing paused.

"They taught us some... methods of dual cultivation."

Chen Mo's teacup, which he had just picked up, stopped in mid-air.

"Sister Ruhua taught so well!"

Qingzhu immediately perked up, her mouth moving faster than her brain.

"She taught me what positions to use, how to cooperate, and that..."

She had barely uttered half a sentence when Xu Wanqing covered her mouth, her face burning red.

Green Bamboo struggled and whimpered in her palm, still mumbling incoherently.

Su Yue stood to the side, her face so red it looked like it could bleed, wishing she could disappear into a crack in the ground.

Chen Mo didn't care about the feelings of the others.

His heart skipped a beat.

"Is the kind of martial arts she taught the same one she practiced herself?"

He had heard of Ru Hua's martial arts techniques.

The practice of "absorbing yang to replenish yin" is a wicked thing that uses men as a furnace or cauldron.

If he taught three women this... wouldn't he be drained dry?

"No, no!"

Qingzhu managed to break free and quickly waved her hands.

"Sister Ruhua only taught us techniques, not the actual martial arts! She said that martial arts are harmful to the body and forbids us from learning them!"

"Young master."

Su Yue composed herself and said softly.

"Protector Ruhua is thinking of you and has no intention of harming you. She often says that you are an outstanding person and that everyone in the sect hopes that you can join the sect."

Chen Mo looked at the three women, took a sip of tea from his cup, and felt relieved.

The three women couldn't possibly be lying to him.

This girl, Ruhua, practices unorthodox techniques, but she knows how to act with discretion.

He leaned forward, looked at the three women, and slowly a smile crept onto his lips.

"In Lin'an City, everyone knows how formidable Miss Ruhua is. She's teaching you her skills..."

He stood up and stretched his wrists.

"Perfect, I'll check it out myself today."

Qingzhu's eyes lit up instantly.

Su Yue's ears turned red all the way to her neck.

Xu Wanqing's lips curled up, her eyes filled with infatuation.

……

This test lasted for seven days and seven nights!

Green bamboo is the most captivating, and the pale moon is the gentlest.

What surprised Chen Mo the most was Xu Wanqing.

She was the oldest and usually appeared the most dignified and restrained, but in bed, she was like a volcano that had been suppressed for too long; once it opened, it was unstoppable.

The three women have made significant progress in their cultivation over the past month, their physical condition has greatly improved, and their energy is frighteningly abundant.

They were very welcoming, even though we hadn't seen each other for over a month.

Chen Mo went from enjoying it, to gritting his teeth and enduring it, and finally to finding joy in it.

Late on the seventh night, the three of them finally fell into a deep sleep.

Chen Mo lay on the bed staring at the ceiling beams, his back aching, but his spirits were unusually high.

"bite."

The system notification sounded.

[Congratulations! Your Dual Cultivation skill has broken through! Perfection → Transcendent Realm!] [Dual Cultivation (Transcendent Realm Max)]

He glanced at the densely packed amplification indicators on the panel.

My gaze was fixed on the last line.

Chen Mo stared at the words and sat up in bed.

Never betray, never leave.

Once you've practiced dual cultivation with him, you'll never betray him.

The first person who popped into his mind wasn't the three people beside him, but the leader of the Crimson Fire Cult whom he had never met before.

Grandmaster level, possessing unique skills that can be cultivated to the point of innate ascension.

His only concern before was whether he could take down this leader of the sect, and if so, whether he could control him.

What now?

As long as we defeat the cult leader, we can hope to ascend to immortality!

Despite the aching in his back, Chen Mo immediately pulled the three of them together to try it out.

When they woke up the next day, the changes in the three of them were impossible to hide.

Qingzhu was the first to wake up. She nestled against Chen Mo's chest and stared at his face for a long time.

"Young master, you look even better today than yesterday!"

After saying that, she buried her face in his neck, holding him tightly, as if afraid he would leave for another forty-one days.

Su Yue rested her chin on her hands, looked down at Chen Mo, her eyes filled with tenderness.

"It's so good that the young master is back."

The sound was very soft.

Xu Wanqing was the last to wake up.

She sat up, pressed Chen Mo down, and mounted the horse.

The three women had no idea what a panel was.

But every word they said and every look they gave Chen Mo was telling him something.

The special effects are now in effect!

In fact, these special effects are all thanks to Ru Hua.

If she hadn't taught him those techniques, his dual cultivation skills wouldn't have reached such a high level so quickly.

I owe this person a huge favor.

……

On the morning of the eighth day, there was a knock on the courtyard gate.

Su Yue went to open the door, and it was Ru Hua who came in.

She wore a plain-colored long dress, her hair was casually tied into a bun, and a silver hairpin was inserted diagonally.

She walked into the courtyard, her gaze sweeping over the three women's faces one by one.

She was radiant, her skin was increasingly delicate and fair, and her eyes and brows possessed an indescribable charm.

Ru Hua raised an eyebrow, said nothing, and sat down at the stone table.

Su Yue served tea.

She picked up the glass to drink, but her gaze fell on Chen Mo's face.

"Young Master Zhang, it's been a long time..."

Her hand suddenly stopped, the teacup hovered in mid-air, and she stared at Chen Mo for several moments.

"You...broke through?"

Chen Mo smiled without saying a word, picked up his teacup and took a sip.

Ru Hua stared at him for a long time before finally looking away and putting down her teacup.

"The cult leader has emerged from seclusion."

P.S.: Thank you to [Wanfa Guiling] and [Pisces Ghost] for the update reminder charms, and thank you to all the handsome men and beautiful women for your love and support.
