The evening wind was slightly chilly.
Sitting in her room, Qingxue was immersed in her study like usual.
She had become a peak first revolution alchemist and also arrived at the threshold of the sixth stage of Qi condensation. If Ji Cangyue saw her current growth, even she would be stunned.
However, instead of feeling happy, her mood was only getting worse and worse.
After all, Tianlong had deserted her in an unknown location for almost two months now.
Moreover, the constant approach of the other males in the inn had left her in a sour mood.
Knock! Knock!
"It's that bastard Shi Fang again! If he knocks on my door one more time, I'm going to teach him a lesson!"
She snorted and focused her attention back on the book. Her expression was darker than ever.
Knock! Knock! Knock!
Finally, she couldn't stay put and approached the door with an angry look.
"Would you stop disturb-"
Standing in front of her wasn't Shi Fang but Tianlong. Having cast off the facial transformation art, he had returned to the guise of when he first entered the mountain.
"Miss me?" There was a small grin on his face.
Although Qingxue felt joyous in her heart, she didn't let it show in her face.
"*snort* So, you still remember me!" Turning around, she started walking towards her workbench.
Tianlong reverted to his original appearance and closed the door behind him.
As a cultivator, he could easily control his scales and horns. With a single thought, he could make them fuse with his flesh and look like a regular human. Except for the slightly demonic air about him, he looked completely normal.
"Do you know that I had to handle a Yin Yang Cleansing stage demon a few days ago?"
His words successfully drew her interest. However, she continued to ignore him.
Upon seeing that, his smile grew even wider.
Making himself comfortable on the bed, he narrated almost everything excluding his research and physique.
Gradually, she could no longer pretend to be disinterested and joined the conversation.
"So, you are telling me you have killed a Yin Yang Cleanser?" she asked him with a suspicious voice.
"Hmm." He nodded in approval.
"Heh, I don't believe you a bit."
"You think I'm bragging?"
"If you possessed the strength to kill Yin Yang Cleansers in Qi Condensation realm, you'd have concealed the matter. With your nature, you'd never let others know of your exact combat prowess." She said in a confident voice.
Having grown up together, she was well aware of his personality. She was the one who knew the most about him after his parents.
Her analysis was entirely correct.
The only reason he told her was that she had seen him dual refining both essence and Qi. Sooner or later, she would connect the dots and figure out his combat prowess herself.
"But you are not others." With a soft look, he gently caressed her cheek.
So instead of lying, it was better to tell her the truth.
"Hmph, sweet talker!"
Feeling the rough hands on her cheek, she blushed a bit but didn't push him away.
Tianlong looked at her with a smile and took out a small packet. "Here, I've bought some thousand-fruit pastries for you."
Hearing the name, her eyes immediately sparkled with interest.
Even though Qingxue wasn't a foodie like him, she had a sweet tooth. It was a fact that he often made use of.
With a sweet smile on her face, she took the pastries and started eating.
"Do you remember the weird ginsengs we bought in the market?"
"Yes. Did you figure out what they were?"
Nodding her head, she continued, "Apparently, those were sangria ginsengs which are used to create the Bloodlust frenzy pills."
Tianlong's eyes widened in surprise. "If my memory serves correctly, those ginsengs grow in places where a lot of corpses accumulate. Their blood and resentment seep into the herbs. Anyone who consumes medicine concocted with them would experience a bout of madness and desire to kill."
"Hm, it's an incredibly evil item. However, you'll find a use for it sooner or later."
He didn't refute her words and just slightly smiled.
Touching the ring on his finger, he released the seven female cultivators. Even though they were unconscious, their lack of clothes and glistening skin made them extremely alluring.
"Their bodies are still under the effect of aphrodisiac. I trust you know how to get rid of that."
Been already informed about them, Qingxue wasn't surprised by their sudden appearance, rather she felt thankful that Tianlong had saved them.
"Un. Leave it to me."
She carefully approached all of them and started to diagnose them. Once she identified the aphrodisiac poison, she started to treat them accordingly.
If not for the lack of herbs, Tianlong could've treated them himself.
While working on them, Qingxue started to talk about her own experiences.
But unlike him, her sentences were drawn out and contained a lot of information about the valley.
Having grown up with her, he was already aware of how long-winded she was. Maybe one of the key points of their relationship was that he could listen to every word she spoke attentively.
"…I saw an elder of our clan personally coming here to buy spirit water in a large amount. If these organisations weren't deeply affecting the trade from the mountain pathways and yielded a negligible profit, other clans would've long since taken control of them. Hm, why do you think the elder bought so much spirit water with himself? Is it for the selection of the Grand Xia's Imperial Sect…"
However, he soon found that for some reason, he was losing focus. Maybe it was due to the erotic atmosphere bought by the seven ladies that his eyes would shift to her beautiful figure and silently admire it.
Once she finished treating all the females, she was thoroughly tired. Dealing with the aphrodisiacs had left her with blushed cheeks and sweaty all over.
Qingxue had noticed his gaze long ago, it made her both shy and excited.
It was said that short separation increases affection, but a long separation kills it.
As one keeps seeing someone daily, they would take their presence for granted and not appreciate them.
It was only after their absence would someone understand their value.
However, if the separation was too drawn out, the affection would gradually fade.
These words were true up to a certain extent; in fact, they were currently experiencing it.
Both of them felt as if the other had become much more attractive than before.
When Tianlong started to undress her, she didn't resist but just lightly bit her lips.
He pushed her down and roamed her body with his gentle touches. One of his hands was fondling her breasts while the other one was caressing the pink slit below.
"N-no… don't …there are others in the room…ah…"
Her moans became increasingly louder when she felt him licking and biting the pink cherry on top of her other breast. It was a mixture of pain and pleasure that she felt extremely wonderful.
Soon she found herself being invaded by Tianlong. It was a feeling she missed for the past few months.
"ha…hah…"
As her body was pressed under him, she locked her arms around his neck and drew him closer and closer, as if trying to merge with him.
Her moans were answered by his faint whispers of sweet nothingness creating an atmosphere that would make anyone bewitched.
When the pleasure reached a certain height, their bodies started to tremble.
Qingxue's back arched up as she released a stream of a clear liquid that contained a sizeable amount of her Yin energy. But before she could notice that, her insides were filled by his warm semen that was reeking of Yang energy.
Nevertheless, the entire exercise was very tiring for her. She had no energy to move.
Unfortunately for her, Tianlong had awakened one of the five extreme Yang physiques. It increased his libido by a huge margin.
Flipping her over, he started moving again while admiring her beautiful back view.
His attacks on her were more vigorous and stronger, leaving her weak body completely at his mercy.
With slightly rosy cheeks, she also started coordinating. To begin with, she wasn't a shy girl and having slept with Tianlong many times, she was also picking up his aggressiveness on the bed.
It was only after midnight, that the soul-stirring moans came to an end…
Qingxue slept with a blissful expression on her face. Her union with Tianlong was joyous on both physical and spiritual levels.
She was a little away from the sixth level of Qi Condensation, but after his yang qi seeped into her body, it caused her to finally reach that level.
Tianlong had similarly attained the seventh level of Qi Condensation. It was a major bottleneck for many cultivators that they couldn't reach in their lifetimes.
His affinity with the wind was already at a level that couldn't be increased without reaching a higher stage. Combined with the excess yin qi that Qingxue accumulated over two months, his breakthrough was extremely simple.
The extreme Yin or Yang physique could extract someone's cultivation with ease but it could also benefit their partner immensely. Even the simple act of fleshly pleasure without using any dual cultivation merit law had risen both of their magic power.
When he reached the new stage in Qi condensation, his body didn't release any impurities; indicating that he was already possessed a perfect physique for Qi condensation.
With his eyes closed, he carefully circulated the 217 qi vortexes in his meridians that absorbed spiritual energy from the surroundings.
"Why specifically target the Qin Mountain Bandits?" Suddenly a voice echoed in his mind.
