Chapter 158
Xiao Minghuang returned to her residence within the Spirit Sword Sect.
It was a secluded mountain peak, far removed from the many disciples of the sect.
Halfway up the mountain, a courtyard had been built. It wasn’t luxurious, but it was exquisitely crafted.
Xiao Minghuang found a bamboo chair and sat down, her mind heavy with thoughts.
Although she had just obtained a profound sword technique, she wasn’t in the mood to practice.
Previously, she had gained many benefits from the Tianfu Secret Realm.
Ordinary spiritual herbs were one thing—consuming them directly without refining them into pills would only diminish their efficacy.
But that wisp of Red Emperor’s Blazing Flame required the guidance of a Medicine King to properly integrate.
Earlier, she had tried to take the flame out of her system space, but the moment her spiritual power touched it, it was instantly incinerated into nothingness.
“Sigh, I kind of want to return to Great Xia,” Xiao Minghuang murmured softly.
Although Sheng Bailan had been extremely generous and caring toward her, she was still a guest here, and there were many inconveniences.
It had been ten days since she entered the Spirit Sword Sect, and during that time, her cultivation had naturally progressed to the third level of the Divine Sea Realm.
Apart from cultivation, she spent her days exchanging sword techniques with Sheng Bailan, and the two had long since become familiar with each other.
Moreover, she had almost unreservedly shared her sword path experiences with Sheng Bailan, and the latter had done the same.
“There’s not much point in me staying here any longer,” Xiao Minghuang thought to herself, muttering:
“After today, I’ll go see Sect Master Sheng tomorrow morning and bid my farewell!”
But before that…
Her mind stirred, and the complete text of the 《Myriad Swords Return to Origin Sword Technique》 appeared in her thoughts.
She planned to spend the remaining time of the day pondering this sword technique.
With that in mind, Xiao Minghuang closed her eyes and entered a meditative state.
…
The night grew deeper.
A bright, silvery moon rose, casting its gentle light over the earth, adding a touch of hazy beauty to the darkness.
Xiao Minghuang opened her eyes, her gaze as brilliant as stars. But upon closer inspection, one would notice that the starlight was actually the reflection of countless sword glimmers.
Counting them, there were a full thousand!
“Is this the Thousandfold Sword Intent?” Xiao Minghuang extended her right hand, her slender jade-like fingers lightly tracing through the air. In front of her, a thousand translucent long swords materialized.
They densely filled the courtyard, each sword exuding an overwhelmingly terrifying aura, as if they could slice through the heavens at any moment!
These sword shadows were the external manifestation of her sword path’s true intent, each one possessing a power infinitely close to her own sword intent.
“With just this one move, the Thousandfold Sword Intent, I can slay anyone below the Spirit Seed Realm!” Xiao Minghuang narrowed her beautiful eyes, a faint smile tugging at the corner of her lips.
Previously, she had been able to contend with a peak Divine Sea Realm Crimson Flame Sparrow at full strength.
It was only because she was in the opponent’s territory that she had been forced to retreat.
Now, having mastered the Thousandfold Sword Intent, even if she faced the Crimson Flame Sparrow at its full power again, she could slay it with a single strike!
“I really wish I could find a peak Divine Sea Realm opponent to spar with!”
Xiao Minghuang chuckled softly, speaking to herself, then waved her hand, causing a thousand sword shadows to vanish.
“Tonight, I won’t cultivate. I’ll get a good night’s sleep.”
She stood up, stretched, and walked into the bamboo hut.
In the night sky, the bright moon hung high, casting silvery light everywhere. A figure dressed in white, as pure as snow, emerged from the void, bathed in the moonlight.
“The high-grade Soul-Lulling Incense I got from the black market can render even a Spirit Seed Realm cultivator unconscious for twelve hours, and they won’t remember anything after waking up. That should be enough.”
The white-clad figure swayed slightly and drifted into the bamboo hut.
A faint white smoke rose, enveloping the woman on the bed.
Seeing Xiao Minghuang’s body gradually relax, the white-clad figure confirmed once again that the other was completely unconscious before fully dropping her disguise and revealing her aura.
This person was none other than Sheng Bailan, the sect master of the Spirit Sword Sect.
At this moment, a trace of hesitation appeared on her cold and beautiful face, but it was soon replaced by determination.
“Princess Xiao… this is for the sake of the sword path. You’ll forgive me, right?”
Her fingers gently caressed the cheek of the woman on the bed as she whispered softly.
Then, she slowly removed her white dress, revealing her fair skin, and leaned closer to the woman.
Sheng Bailan’s face flushed slightly.
Although she had mentally prepared herself, being so intimately close to a junior she had only recently met still made her feel shy.
She could feel the soft and elastic body on the bed, and a faint, intoxicating fragrance wafted over, refreshing her senses.
Sheng Bailan’s breathing became rapid.
“Mmm…”
The woman stirred slightly, letting out a soft moan.
Sheng Bailan froze on the spot, her face turning as red as if it were about to bleed, and she stood there like a fool.
“What should I do!”
“What should I do!”
“What should I do!”
Sheng Bailan was so frightened that she didn’t dare move, her mind blank, until after a while, she finally regained her senses.
She turned her head to look and saw that Xiao Minghuang, lying on the bed, hadn’t moved at all. She was indeed completely unconscious.
“Phew—!”
Sheng Bailan let out a long breath, her heart finally settling, and she began to help Xiao Minghuang remove her clothes.
Xiao Minghuang had already gone to bed, so she was only wearing a single layer of clothing, which was easy to remove.
But Sheng Bailan, lacking experience, was overly cautious and ended up tearing a small rip in the gauze dress.
“It shouldn’t matter…”
After a brief moment of hesitation, Sheng Bailan decided to ignore the small tear.
Because she had already completely removed Xiao Minghuang’s clothes, and the two of them were now truly bare before each other.
There was no need to deliberately activate any cultivation techniques.
Sheng Bailan could already feel a fiery sword intent surging from her heart to the top of her head.
Her heart, which had been as still as a withered well and as cold as ice for fifty years, suddenly felt as if it were in a furnace. Her entire body was ignited, and she uncontrollably pounced forward.
“No! I must restrain myself!”
Sheng Bailan silently warned herself.
But this time, no matter how hard she tried, she couldn’t hold back. Her delicate, boneless hands climbed onto Xiao Minghuang’s graceful curves.
“Princess Xiao… your skin is so smooth, even softer than a baby’s!”
Sheng Bailan murmured to herself, her hands moving more boldly.
Her breathing became heavy and rapid, and her entire body trembled.
It was no wonder she found it difficult to restrain herself.
After all, she had been alone for nearly fifty years, never having been close to anyone.
Sheng Bailan calmed her emotions, activated the “Twin Swords Unity Sword Technique,” and then tightly embraced Xiao Minghuang, ensuring that their bodies were pressed together without a single gap, entwined in an intimate embrace.
Sheng Bailan could feel the warmth of Xiao Minghuang’s body, the strong heartbeat, the suppleness and elasticity of her form, which stirred her heart and made her emotions surge.
Their sword intents communicated without any barriers.
From afar to near, they intertwined, eventually reaching each other’s shores, completing a cycle.
Although Xiao Minghuang was completely entranced, Sheng Bailan could sense from her physical reactions that she was also in a state of bliss.
This night was destined to be long.
