By the time Lu Cheng returned home, the moon was already high in the sky.

Strangely enough, just moments ago it was pouring rain with thunder and lightning, but as soon as he emerged from the brothel, the storm abruptly stopped, and even the sky cleared up again, with not a cloud in the sky and a full moon hanging overhead, appearing exceptionally clear.

The feeling wasn't like the unpredictable weather, but more like the sudden dissipation of gloom in one's heart.

"Master, you've had a long day."

As soon as she entered the house, she saw Han Guang looking at her with a big smile and giving her a mysterious look. Today, she was unusually proactive. Not only did she take care of Lu Cheng's clothes, but her little hands were also touching him everywhere.

"What are you doing? Checking if your master is missing any parts, is that it?"

He raised his hand and pinched Han Guang's tender little face. Although the girl had an ordinary appearance, her skin was as elastic as tofu. He rubbed it with great pleasure.

"Ugh~ I just wanted to see how many masters served today."

"Not a single one! Do you think I'm the kind of person who can't resist a rich woman?"

Before he could finish speaking, Han Guang pulled a jade bottle from his arms, gently shook it, and revealed a hint of smugness in her expression.

She didn't follow them all the way to Sweetwater Street to spy on them. With her level of cultivation, she could easily perceive anything happening in her sea of ​​consciousness, even from miles away. Whether it was the laughter of men and women or the faint movements of rats and ants, nothing could escape her sea of ​​consciousness.

just.

She would peek every time because the visual stimulation was strong enough; the thrill of being caught in the act, feeling guilty and worried about being discovered at any moment, was irresistible to her.

"...This is the product of fair trade; children shouldn't ask questions they don't understand."

A serious-sounding excuse.

Whose servant would send their master to a brothel to be a gigolo?

"Hehe, alright, the master smells terrible, it's really awful. Do all the rich women at Hongxiuzhao have such peculiar tastes?"

"No, no, no, let me tell you, today your master encountered someone committing violence on Sweetwater Street, and in the end, I displayed my great power..."

He pushed Lu Cheng towards the bathroom.

They walked and laughed, sharing the little things in their daily lives. This feeling of having someone waiting for and caring for you at home easily made you lazy. In no time, Lu Cheng was stripped of his skin and thrown into a wooden tub filled with hot water.

call--

I let out a long sigh of relief.

When he got home, he was overwhelmed with exhaustion. As usual, Han Guang rolled up her sleeves and began to wipe his body with a light, thin gauze, while the boy continued to talk about what had happened that day.

"In short, I've presented the solution; whether they implement it or not is their business."

"I'll go to the Demon Suppression Division tomorrow and briefly mention to Lord Huang that the report should have been submitted by now. I should get some kind of reward or encouragement."

"Speaking of which, the weather today is rather strange; it just doesn't feel right..."

Han Guang hummed a tune, looking at Lu Cheng's somewhat displeased expression with confusion, and asked, "Master, are you unhappy today? Your cultivation speed is so fast that even immortal-grade spiritual roots can't compete with you. Although you started a bit late, you've successfully reached the initial stage in less than ten days. That's a good thing. Tomorrow I'll buy some good wine and food to celebrate."

Lu Cheng, who was cleaning and washing the bird, suddenly stopped. After a while, he exclaimed in bewilderment, "Ah!"

That's right, he broke through to a higher realm.

During the battle just now, he went into the fight with a Qi-inducing pill in his mouth. In addition, he was only stuck at the threshold of the initial stage, and that zombie was an ultimate power bank, which allowed him to absorb a lot of energy in one go.

Even Lu Cheng himself didn't notice the breakthrough in his cultivation level. Everything happened so naturally. He glanced inward and found that his spiritual energy was already abundant, like a reservoir that had stored enough water to break through the dam under the impact of an external force.

His dantian was a whole size larger than before. If it was like a lollipop before, it was like a walnut now. Both his strength and physique had improved, and his spiritual energy was circulating throughout his body. Although the enhanced Demon-Slaying Palm had wasted a lot of demonic energy, his spiritual root was still purplish-black and shiny.

Conservatively speaking, it should be enough for him to cultivate for half a month.

"I don't think I had this function before when I was using my father's abilities. Could it be because I broke through to a higher realm?"

With this in mind, he suspected that as his spiritual root continued to grow and his realm continued to improve, his spiritual root would also develop various different functions, and this was one of them.

If we encounter danger again in the future, the spells amplified by the spiritual root will definitely be a killing move!

"Hmm, we should definitely celebrate properly. Speaking of which, Hanguang, what realm were you at in your previous life? How long will it take me to reach that level... Awooooo!"

It let out a scream.

The sharp nails dug deep into his skin, and the intense pain almost made Lu Cheng jump out of the bathtub. He had no idea that even the zombies hadn't been able to hurt him, and as a result, Han Guang had easily taken control of him.

"Sir, if you wish to send me on my way, I'll take you with me first..."

Twist it hard.

As a corpse handler, Lu Cheng's words about the funeral industry were too professional, and he subconsciously used the phrase "before death," so he quickly corrected himself.

"Before you get hurt, before you get hurt! Little darling, be gentle!"

"snort."

She pouted and opened her mouth.

The cunning glint in his eyes didn't disappear; instead, he suddenly dove into the water, grabbed it, and instantly refined it!

"..."

The spirited young man stood at attention.

He stood up straight from the water, his whole body ramrod straight like a soldier at attention. The sudden attack caught everyone off guard. His eyes were filled with the pleasure of revenge, and he uttered a few words in a low voice.

"In my previous life, I had no spiritual cultivation; I was a vengeful ghost in red who died a tragic death."

"Stop fooling around, stop fooling around. I'm asking about serious matters. Give your master some pointers on how to cultivate in the future. I got a lot of good stuff this time as a gigolo. Could you help your master improve further? Being a sickly person isn't out of the question."

"You greedy little rascal..."

Muttering to himself, Han Guang looked at Lu Cheng's fair and tender body soaking in the water and couldn't help but feel a little envious. He loosened his palm. Although he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, the fact that a beginner could defeat a zombie he had created was enough to demonstrate his talent.

Maybe if I endure a few more years, I'll actually see the day when Lu Cheng catches up with me.

"Pills are external things. You are in good health now and can handle them. Taking this Qi-inducing pill regularly will be very beneficial."

"But if you want to continue to break through and achieve some success, you will need to gain insights. Even if you are forcibly fed elixirs and medicines to improve your realm, you will not make any progress in your life because you do not have the process of gaining insights."

"When the first thought awakens, delusions are locked away, attachments are broken, the sea of ​​the heart opens, the spiritual heart is forged, the heart of the Tao is solidified, a single thought creates a realm, and myriad thoughts arise."

"This saying represents a state of mind; you're still a long way off."

She slapped Lu Cheng's white bottom with her little hand and ran away triumphantly. This immediately made Lu Cheng wicked and determined to go to her room tonight and teach her a lesson. However, Han Guang's words reminded him.

"Comprehension, that is a problem. I only have comprehension of the first two realms right now. I need to find a way to get the spiritual root of a master."
