Chapter 27: On to the Skysword Sect
Shen and Huoyun Liu-Li left the room as they finished their lunch and ‘dessert’. It seems the girls also finished their lunch as they all came out.
“Elder Sis Huoyun, are you alright? Your lips looks so swollen.” Wushuang worriedly said as she noticed Huoyun a little behind Shen.
“...” both Mingyue Gelou and Huoyun Liu-Li fell silent. Huoyun’s face started to turn red out of embarrassment.
“The dish was a little too spicy. Anyway, girls let’s rest. We will rest the night here and tomorrow, we head towards Skysword Sect.” Shen came to rescue as he replied like it was a matter of face. He changed the topic of the conversation.
Yiye Jiange nodded her head in acknowledgment. She was a woman of few words as for the most time she liked to stay quiet. Huoyun, on the other hand, furrowed her borrows as she heard them going to Skysword Sect. She knew the events that took place on Skysword Sect and going there right now would be akin to suicide.
“Weird, I don't remember serving anything spicy...” Little Shu mumbled out as she stared at Lille Mu.
“I didn't serve anything spicy either.” Little Mu hurriedly swayed her hands as she denied the possibility.
Huoyun who heard them discussing turned tomato as she chose to completely ignore them and only hoped the others didn't hear them.
At night Shen took Huoyun Liu-Li to his bed. He felt the devilish figure of Huoyun grinding erotically against the lower part of his body. He ignored his fatigue as he moved his hands about, touching every part of Huoyun’s body. Placing his head right in the middle of her twin peaks, Shen gently sucked on that pinkish, protruding bud.
Huoyun Liu-Li was charming and extremely bold in bed. Like a devoted wife she satisfied Shen’s complete lust. At last, Shen fell in the middle of her twin peak after enjoying her body to his heart content.
On the second day as dawn approached, Shen woke up. Sitting on the bed, he recalled the soul-stirring scenario and almost screamed out, “Shit, why was it a dream?”
After Shen woke up, he did his morning shower quickly. When he opened the door, he saw the girls training. Only now did he realize that he overslept. He saw Huoyun Liu-Li, Wenren Wushuang and Yiye Jiange practicing their sword dance.
Huoyun was clad in purple with a hairpin inserted in her hair. Her shoulder-length black hair flowed in the wind, mirroring her movements as she wielded a longsword. A silver bracelet was seen equipped on her ankle while she was tapping her foot to a rhythm and dancing about.
Wushuang wore a white garb as her hair was tied in a single ponytail. Her sword movement was like mimicking nature and as if it was reaching perfection. Similar to Wushuang Yiye Jiange was also clad in white but unlike her, Yiye Jiange had long hair which flowed down to her waist.
Mingyue Gelou, on the other hand, practiced a set of fist and palm technique. After many guidance from Shen, now she can even fight with cultivators without any weapon. Different from the other girls, her aura while practicing was not gentle but rather aggressive. Even her training is fierce which is unlike the gentle vibe she normally gives off.
Shen didn’t join them as he always trains inside the Absolute Realm. He observed their movements and from time to time he would instruct them. During his previous life, Shen mostly focused on Martial Arts and Sword as his choice of weapon. He did the same on this life.
Instructing the girls were quite easy as his achievement in both Martial Arts and Sword was exceptional. His achievement didn’t only come from his high talent and the time from Absolute Realm. It mostly came with his life and death experience from his previous life.
After two hours of morning practice, they ate breakfast together. Naturally, Shen had to be the cook as Wushuang praised about Shen’s cooking to Huoyun Liu-Li. Shen noticed her being awestruck as she savoured the dishes. “You still have time to change thoughts about me, you know?”
“Hmph, what thoughts...” Huoyun kept enjoying the dishes without giving him a look of care, but the charming smile that crept on her face didn’t go unnoticed by Shen. After hearing Huoyun Liu-Li’s coquettish tone, Shen also changed his thought about this woman in front of him.
“Shen, are you really planning to head towards the Skysword Sect?” Huoyun suddenly said with a serious tone.
“Yes, I have already promised my disciple. Even if you want to marry me now, you’ll have to wait.” Shen also noticed the sudden seriousness on her tone and seriously replied to her.
“Currently the Skysword Sect is in turmoil. Huan Jing, the prodigy of Joyous Sect’s main branch came to find trouble with the sect. He crippled the leader of the sect in a single move and he couldn’t even react.” Yiye Jiange stiffened as she heard Huoyun. The Sect Leader, Baili Jingwei always treated her like a sister. Even she treated and respected him as a Brother. She couldn’t even imagine something like this happening to him.
“Are you sure about your information?” Shen felt the severity of the situation as he said to her.
“100%...”
“Do you know Huan Jing’s cultivation?”
“...Grade One Martial King, I can’t be completely sure. From the information I have received, he is a dual cultivator and achieved breakthrough not long ago.” Huoyun seemed hesitant as she replied. Martial King in Cang Lang Country was one in a Million.
The atmosphere in the room suddenly became a few times tenser. The girls and even Shen were all Xiantian realm cultivator. Even Huoyun Liu-Li’s Master was a Peak Xiantian cultivator.
“Oh, then no problem. Can you take care of the girls for me while I visit the sect for a few days?” only Shen seemed unaffected by the tense mood of the girls.
“Master, you can’t possibly do that! Even if I’m your disciple you can’t risk your life for me.” Yiye Jiange tried to act as calmly as possible but her eyes revealed the pressure she is going through.
He only smiled at them, “Jiange, don’t worry as long as it's just a Grade One Martial King, I can easily handle him.”
“Did you?!” Huoyun was shocked by his words as well as the girls.
Shen just triumphantly smiled. He didn’t breakthrough to the Martial King Realm but he can easily outdo any normal Grade One Martial King’s. Not to mention he got stronger after that fight with Martial King realm beasts, but any normal person won’t believe if he said he could fight with Martial King realm beasts as a Xiantian.
“So, just don’t worry and stay put for a few days. I’ll be back within a week!”
The girls tried to go with Shen but he didn’t budge from his statement. In the end, he only accepted Yiye Jiange to go with him as she was extremely worried about Baili Jingwei. If he leaves her here, she alone might try to travel there. He bought two high-quality horses as he headed towards the Skysword Sect with Yiye Jiange.
Although everything looked so simple and easy, he felt it wasn’t. His sense told him that things weren’t how they looked.
