Shen Yuan looked at her status window; it was a lot smaller than his, yet it contained all the details that he needed about her.
“So, her species is called Primal Nexus Beast.” He turned his face to look at Huo Rong before asking, “Have you heard about them, Big Sis?”
Huo Rong thought about it long and hard but shook her head in the end, “No, I have not heard about them, but maybe you can find something in the Sect’s library.”
Shen Yuan nodded his head, “I will head to the library later. Anyways, tell me more about yourself, what work were you doing in the meantime?”
Huo Rong exhaled a long sigh and put her head on his shoulder, “Sect Master dumped all the work of Bing Rong and Master on me. I was covering for both of them: looking after disciples, tending to the herb garden, taking stock of the inventory of our resources… and a lot more.”
Shen Yuan looked at her with surprise, “You actually did so much work.”
Huo Rong felt her lips twitching, “You thought I was resting inside the sect?”
“Haha, I was just joking,” he chuckled and wrapped his arm around her to bring her closer. “Want some tea?”
“Sure.” She nodded smilingly.
Shen Yuan took out the utensils to make tea and some tea leaves as well. He placed Xueyan on the side of the sofa and lit up the fire with his Fire Intent.
“Whoa, you learned Fire Intent already?” Huo Rong’s eyes widened in surprise as she saw him using Fire Intent.
Shen Yuan smugly replied, “Of course, who do you think I am?”

“And it’s at the second level at that. You really surprised me there, Yuan’er.” She was still having a hard time believing it, as learning an Intent at Inner Sea Realm was practically unheard of.
Most average cultivators start learning Intents at Extreme Origin Core Realm.
“Oh, you are also a fire practitioner, right? So have you learned Fire Intent as well?” Shen Yuan curiously asked while making tea.
It was Huo Rong’s turn to act smug as she replied with a proud voice, “Of course, I’m your sister after all; wouldn’t I look too bad if I hadn’t even mastered Intent at Mortal Tribulation Realm? I have learned 5th Level Fire Intent.”
Shen Yuan nodded his head with a smile, “Good, good, that’s what I call genius. I heard most people have difficulties passing 3rd Level Intent at Mortal Tribulation Realm, but you have already learned it to 5th level.”
Huo Rong turned slightly shy at Shen Yuan’s praise as she knew it was not only because of her. “My comprehension was also on the 3rd level before you gave me that technique and the pill. It boosted my comprehension by a lot, and the technique made it easier to learn the Fire Intent.”
“At least the technique is helpful for you, so I guess Big Sis Bing Rong should be on a similar level.” Shen Yuan finished preparing tea and poured it into two cups before serving one to Huo Rong.
Huo Rong softly blew on her cup before taking a sip, her eyes lit up as she tasted how good the tea was. “Yes, she has also reached the same level.”
Shen Yuan nodded his head and began to drink his tea in peace.
They continued to sit there in tranquility, Xueyan lay down on Shen Yuan’s legs as she seemed content to be there.
After finishing the tea, Huo Rong asked, “By the way, have you bonded with the beast, or placed a seal inside her?”
Xueyan stood up and growled at Huo Rong. Shen Yuan smiled seeing her acting like this.
He picked her up and embraced her while patting her back, “No need to get angry, she was just curious.”
He turned his head and answered Huo Rong, “There is no need for that, I will just let her be free and play here.”
Huo Rong nodded as she stood up, “Well, when will you decorate this mansion? I guess you will be staying here for a pretty long time until you become a Core Disciple.”
Shen Yuan smiled, “I doubt I will stay here for more than a month. During that competition, I will dominate the ranking and the sect will be forced to elevate my position. Otherwise, the disciples will raise fingers: ‘Why is Shen Yuan still an Inner Disciple when his strength is clearly greater than some of the Core Disciples,’ or something along those lines.”
Huo Rong thought hard about what he said while he stood up, “What you said is true. If you perform well enough, then the sect will be forced to promote you, and the disciples will accept you more easily if you helped the Sect win glory.”
Shen Yuan left Xueyan on the ground while saying, “Now, be good and stay here. I have something to discuss with Big Sis Huo Rong.”
Xueyan tilted her head and jumped back in her chair. She lay down and closed her eyes.
“You can eat these in the meantime,” Shen Yuan said and dropped a pile of Mid Tier Spirit Stones.
Xueyan’s nose twitched as she smelled the delicious fragrance of Mid Tier Spirit Stones; she jumped down and gulped down one of the Spirit Stones as her horn shone brighter.
Shen Yuan and Huo Rong looked at this scene in amusement as he started walking inside the main building.
Huo Rong curiously followed after him while asking, “What do you want to talk about, that you had to go inside the main building?”
Shen Yuan smiled mysteriously as he opened the gate and motioned for her to enter, “It’s quite important; get inside and I will tell you.”
Huo Rong tilted her head but entered inside the building nonetheless.
Shen Yuan followed from behind as he closed the door.
“So, what is it that you wan—” Huo Rong’s eyes widened as Shen Yuan came forward and tightly hugged her while locking their lips in a passionate kiss.
Huo Rong first tried to push him back softly but soon felt herself falling deeper into the abyss of pleasure.
Shen Yuan extended one of his hands to her lower side and gently traced lines on her back.
She moved her hands upwards and grabbed his head tightly.
After kissing for a while, they separated as they took deep breaths.
“Yuan’er—” Shen Yuan put a finger on her lips as he softly whispered in her ear.
“Let me take care of you now; it’s been a while since we have done it.”
Huo Rong turned red as she also wanted to do it but couldn’t find the courage to say it straight to him.
Shen Yuan smirked, seeing her nod softly while remaining silent. He softly spanked her bottom and said, “Let’s head to my room.”
Huo Rong squealed softly as her face turned a deeper shade of red. Shen Yuan gently grabbed her hand as she followed him towards his room.
Shen Yuan opened the gate and they both entered it. He smiled slightly as he turned around to see her lowered head in embarrassment.
