"Everything is going to be fine, husband. You are already quite mature and have a stronger mindset than others of the same age."
"Yeah, right."
Not at all believing Juewang, Jian Shen felt that she was saying all of that since she loved him.
"She's speaking the truth, Jian Shen. Someone of your age, would not have been able to kill so many bandits in cold blood without showing any emotion."
Listening to Qingyu, Jian Shen's mouth started twitching and he began thinking that maybe he was being praised as a psychopath in the budding.
"I'm not saying it's great that you can kill so many, or that it suits you to kill so many, Jian Shen. I'm saying, that for someone like you who can keep a stable mind after killing so many, you aren't emotionally immature. You just have some... Small... Issues.... With.... Being.... Abandoned... "
Having subconsciously already guessed the reason, Jian Shen wasn't particularly shocked or anything from hearing Qingyu saying it out loud.
"You don't need to think too much about that, husband! No matter what happens, I'm always going to be by your side."
Hearing those words Jian Shen couldn't help but unconsciously smile and say, "Thank you, little wifey. I appreciate it."
"Me too! I won't leave you either Jian Shen!"
"I know. Thank you, Yu'er."
Even though Jian Shen right now sounded like he had turned back into his usual self, and no longer sounded depressed, the two women knew that nothing much had changed.
Such problems weren't something which could be healed or treated instantly regardless of how many special resources and treasures one possessed.
They could only be hoped to heal with time.
...
After that day, Jian Shen didn't cause another commotion and completely kept to himself as he entered a period of stable growth.
By focusing only on having sex, cultivating, and training his sword techniques for a whole year, Jian Shen who was seventeen years old now, had made massive improvements in all directions.
Due to having sex with many elders in the past year, most likely since Mei Xing had shared details on how good her experience with him, Jian Shen's cultivation had the most improvements.
Going from a cultivation base which had just entered the Earth Realm, Jian Shen was very close to entering the Dharma Realm.
All he needed now was a little push, and Jian Shen would become a seventeen-year-old Dharma Cultivator which wasn't something that ever happened in the Mortal Realm.
Thus, even though the Sect Mistress still hadn't come out of her seclusion, she ordered three elders to stay around him and keep him safe at all times.
As for the Sect Master, even though he hated Jian Shen for what he did to Wang Qiu, he knew that as a Sect Master he needed to prioritize the growth of the Sect.
And Jian Shen, he was someone needed for the Great Sect of Lust, if they wanted to achieve the status of overlord among the Five Great Sects.
Other than this great growth in his cultivation, Jian Shen had also achieved great progress in the Myriad Sword Cultivation Technique.
Jian Shen due to not neglecting his training, now possessed more Sword Qi inside his body than ever before, and he was able to use it much better as well.
Even though it wasn't enough to create a sword on its own, Jian Shen was able to cover the Sword of Despair's, and the Myriad God Sword's edge in Sword Qi when he was using them to attack.
When he did so, the sharpness of the two swords would undergo a huge increase, and allowed them to easily cut Seven Array Qi Weapons into two without even having to use any technique.
As for the Sword Arm, Jian Shen had almost achieved it by 50%.
That meant, Jian Shen could now use any of his five fingers, and his palm as a whole like a sword.
Opening his eyes after having just inspected his Dantian, Jian Shen remembered the lustrous seven coloured Crystal Core which had grown even bigger by almost ten times to when he was in the Earth Realm.
Also, the Crystal Core was now continuously spinning at a very fast speed, which didn't even slow down or stop when Jian Shen was sleeping.
At the same time, Jian Shen clenched his fist hard and flexed the muscles on his right arm which allowed him to guess that his current vitality would allow him to live for around 400 years.
Standing up and stretching his body, Jian Shen was about to ask the two swords on how to comprehend the Intents of Heaven and Earth, when his Sect identity Token, the ring on his finger, started to vibrate.
Frowning very little since this was the first time it happened, Jian Shen used his Qi to communicate with it.
"All Core Disciples are to report at the meeting hall within the next thirty minutes without fail!"
That was all the message said.
Pondering over what was wrong, since this was the first time he was ever called somewhere since he joined the Great Sect of Lust, Jian Shen left his courtyard while the women wished him a safe trip.
By now, the number of women living inside Jian Shen's courtyard, and served him had increased by quite a lot as well.
Stepping out of his courtyard, Jian Shen saw that many of the other Core Disciples, who rarely left their courtyard were all walking out as well.
Out of them, quite a lot of the females winked and waved at Jian Shen, who smiled and nodded his head in response.
Seeing this, the male disciples gritted their teeth, because in the past year, even though Jian Shen didn't appear outside his courtyard at all, his existence itself had made them all hate him.
From Outer Disciples, to Core Disciples, and Elders, even though he didn't seduce them, the women themselves appeared in front of his courtyard every day with an intention that everyone was obvious of.
As the various make disciples were gritting their teeth and glaring at him, Jian Shen didn't stop and walked towards the meeting hall which already had quite a few people waiting inside it.
Entering the building through the open door, Jian Shen saw the huge rectangle table with around 50 seats on either side, and two seats near the head.
Seeing quite a few familiar faces sitting around the table, Jian Shen was about to sit in the closest seat to him, when Mei Xing who was sitting close to the head jumped up and waved her hand towards him.
"Here! I have a seat saved for you!"
Sitting beside Mei Xing, Jian Shen asked, "What is this sudden meeting for?"
Bending over and bringing her lips near his ear, Mei Xing whispered, "A huge war is about to take place."
