At night Shen Min lay in her room at the inn, looking blankly at the ceiling but not really seeing it, as Wu Long’s gaze stood before her eyes as vividly as if she was looking him in the eyes right now.
She was surprised at how happy she was when she learned that he started truly pursuing her only after knowing the real her. She was essentially the same person, so she did not feel any jealousy toward her light side, but if he was attracted to her light side only, that would mean that he rejected part of her.
Shen Min was surprised at it because all of these feelings were new for her, and she did not completely understand what they meant, only vaguely grasping their nuance.
She also thought about the fact that he dispatched a Foundation Building Realm cultivator before as if it was not a problem at all before. She still had some doubts that he would be able to shake the giant that was the Supreme Master Pavilion, but they were now becoming thinner by the hour. Such strength was unimaginable for someone at his level of cultivation, but there existed countless wonders in the cultivation world, her physique being one of them, so she could only sigh and try not to think too deeply about how it was possible.
Her necessity to sleep was less than what a mortal would have, as she was in the Revolving Qi Realm. A cultivator would gain a partial alleviation from mortal needs in the Qi Manifestation, and it would gradually increase with every next major realm until it was completely alleviated in the Mortal Transcendence Realm. So skipping a night of sleep was not that much of a problem for Revolving Qi Realm cultivators.
The morning quickly came and they resumed their travel. She did not revert this time to her surprise, as this was the first time her awakened state lasted more than one day, so he taught her another theoretical lesson, and gave her another practical one.
The practical lesson was essentially the same as before, in the same pose, only her body reacted a lot more eagerly and with avid anticipation. She was overwhelmed by the sensations and sat in his embrace for a long time after they finished again, wallowing in this feeling of comfort and safety. She was wondering if this was what it felt to be loved, and as soon as that thought went through her head she felt a blush on her face, as she put her guard back up. But the walls she was putting up around her heart now were a lot thinner, with cracks starting to appear in them, through which his attention and care seeped even more.
He was also impressed by her keen perception, so he taught her how to distinguish Lust Cultivators to see how well she would be able to learn it. She quickly grasped the concept and would only need to see Lust Cultivators to try and distinguish them.
Shen Min woke up one more time during their travel, this time without any stimuli, which greatly surprised her as she could not control her physique yet. As they traveled like that, they reached a relatively large for this kingdom, but a small town when compared to big cities like the capital or the city they met in. This town was the closest populated area to the Spiritual Land of the Supreme Master Pavilion.
And thus, there were a fair bit of people living here who were Lust Cultivators and were not able to stay in the sect. As Wu Long and Shen Min arrived, the whole town was looking at them. Specifically, they were looking at her.
Her beauty and alluring figure instantly attracted the attention of most Lust Cultivators, while Wu Long simply took out a sword.
“Do you see them?”
He asked her, giving her some time to adjust her perception.
“Yes…What are you going to do?”
After some time she nodded, as she was able to distinguish the signs of Lust Cultivation that he taught her, and then asked him, looking at the sword in his hand.
“The initial cleanup”
He replied, as his feet launched him forward. The eyes of the God of Slaughter looked upon the Lust Cultivators around, instantly distinguishing them, as their souls were frozen by the chilling killing intent. He could instantly tell how many lives each one of them ruined, and he gave them their retribution in full.
Bloody flowers started to bloom whenever he passed through, with only the common mortals and a few normal cultivators left amongst rapidly cooling down corpses, covered in their blood, shivering, screaming in horror, but unable to run or move as fear nailed them to their spots.
His sword gracefully danced, leaving arcs of red in its tracks that followed a few moments after the sword has already passed through. Wu Long did not bother dodging the blood this time as there were too many of them and they were too densely packed, so his clothes and emotionless face were soon covered in droplets and splashes of red.
The Lust Cultivators started trying to protect themselves after the initial surprise after some time but the situation did not change much as none of them were able to halt his advance. His Spiritual Qi shielded his hand wielding the sword so that the handle would not get slippery, so the only place left completely untouched by blood was the handle of the sword and his hand.
Shen Min watched first with wide eyes, and then quickly adjusted, as she saw who he was killing and compared it with what she detected, rapidly expanding her understanding of how to distinguish Lust Cultivators by the clues he taught her. .
Soon, two chakrams appeared in her hands, and she went around the city perimeter, as she started reaping the lives of those Lust Cultivators who started to flee.
The carriage driver who brought them here was first looking at them with sheer terror in his eyes, and then turned his carriage away fleeing at the fastest speed, vowing never to scam anyone with his fees again, and additionally to not accept to transport any couples anymore.
As they met after the carnage they looked at each other, both covered in blood and with slightly raised breathing rates. The people around them were either fleeing from the now place of massacre or shivering in place. In less than an hour, all of the Lust Cultivators in the town were mowed down, whether they were in the streets, buildings, or inner courtyards.
She had an excited look in her eyes as she looked at him. She was now completely sure that he was serious about his intentions. It was the first time she saw someone who was actually? going to do something about the vermin plaguing this country that ruined her life. Her emotions were mixed up in a flurry of confusion but there was one thing she was very certain about. She never felt him to be so attractive as at this moment.
The chakrams disappeared from her hands as she stepped toward him, going closer and closer, as she was looking him dead in the eyes. As he saw that look the sword he held aslo went into its sheath and disappeared into the spatial ring. She accelerated and weaving her hands around his neck and running her fingers into his hair kissed him. He embraced her in return, holding her close and bending slightly down so that it would be more comfortable for her while slightly lifting her by her waist.
The people of the town watched with astonishment and intense fear as the two madmen covered in blood were kissing in the middle of the town which was covered in crimson color and littered with corpses.
She felt shivers from her first kiss and closed her eyes as he gently held her, and answered her kiss. She was inexperienced, but he guided her patiently and her kissing rapidly improved. Their tongues twined together, caressing each other as she was too excited for a simple lips kiss and went straight to a deep one instead.
“Mhuaa….haaa…haaa…haaa”
After minutes of an intense kiss, she separated her lips from him heavily breathing and looking him in the eyes again as a string of saliva made a thin bridge between them and eventually disappeared.
“As I told you before, as your control over it is still weak your physique makes you easily excitable, are you sure you want this?”
He asked, and she looked at him silently for a moment. She knew that partially it was her physique that made her very sensitive to mood swings. But she also knew that it was a desire that was hidden deep within, that was simply allowed to freely flow. She was still cautious of him a little while ago, but it instantly broke down, as she made a decision, and nodded.
He looked deep into her eyes, and once he saw a genuine decision behind the excitement that her physique brought, he smiled and kissed her again. This time with a sensual flavor, she felt his joy and tenderness coming through the kiss.
He led her to an inn, where the innkeeper adamantly refused to take any money and provided them with the best room with a quivering smile on his face. Wu Long simply left the money on the counter and went to the room with Shen Min.
