Fang Moye’s hands were warm.
At this moment, her spiritual qi was flowing into him like a trickling stream. Both of them cultivated the Heaven Mending Divine Art, and their spiritual qi attributes were complementary. Jiang Huai quickly stopped feeling dizzy. He then remembered something and took out the Divine Emperor Pearl Shard, handing it to Fang Moye, who was in front of him.
According to the system’s introduction, the Divine Emperor Pearl Shard was an item used to break through the bottleneck of the Divine Emperor Realm. Fang Moye hesitated for a moment, then accepted the shard. Instantly, the shard melted into a flow of light and entered her body, causing her aura to climb a few more points.
“How much will this shard improve Ancestral Master’s cultivation?”
After a moment of silence, Fang Moye slowly replied, “To break through the Divine Emperor Realm, we would need at least a hundred more shards like this.”
Jiang Huai scratched his head. Fang Moye simply said softly, “I will find another way. You should go back and rest well.”
“Okay.” Jiang Huai stood up and walked towards the next room.
***
Evening.
Jiang Huai had a good sleep, which completely dispelled the discomfort in his body. When he got out of bed, the courtyard was filled with rising smoke from cooking. He followed the smoke to the kitchen. At this moment, Fang Moye was in front of the stove, holding a spatula and serving food into a pot.
Seeing such an otherworldly immortal maiden washing her hands and cooking, there was a subtle sense of contrast. Seeing that Jiang Huai was awake, Fang Moye’s eyes softened slightly, and she said softly, “The food is over there. Take it to the pavilion.”
Jiang Huai nodded gently and ate dinner with Fang Moye in the courtyard.
Fang Moye’s palate was also very light. Fortunately, over the years, Jiang Huai had been with Chu Xianning for so long that his taste had become similar to hers.
After the meal, Fang Moye lay down on the bamboo chair in the courtyard. Jiang Huai also took one out of his storage space. When he saw her take out a bamboo chair as well, Fang Moye inexplicably smiled faintly.
Her cultivation was not particularly diligent because her talent in the lower realm had already been terrifying. Many times, she would lie on this bamboo chair, lazily gazing at the sky. Chu Xianning had inherited this habit, and now, it seemed Jiang Huai had also inherited it from Chu Xianning.
“What do you think of the Divine Emperor?” Fang Moye suddenly asked softly. As soon as she finished speaking, she unleashed her domain. Jiang Huai was confused until Fang Moye explained, “She must have learned through Ning Yuzhu that I took you away. She might be observing us right now.”
Jiang Huai was at a loss for words for a moment. After a moment, he gently shook his head, “No matter what, I don’t blame her.”
“You don’t blame her?” Fang Moye’s gaze fell on his profile.
“Mm.” Jiang Huai nodded, his voice firm.
How could he blame her? Living a second life, it was as if all his past fantasies, regrets, and desires were now held firmly in his grasp. In the past, Jiang Ning also liked to play pranks, but he could only smile and let it go. Now, her prank was a bit excessive, but how could he blame her?
“I never understood her in the past,” Fang Moye said softly after a moment of hesitation. “I didn’t like her domineering arrogance, nor did I like her attitude towards this world. She had no hope for the Human Clan, or rather, no hope for this world. Perhaps because she had lived for too long, she had long since grown indifferent to all the joys and sorrows of the mortal world. She always told me that all the karma, good and evil in the world, is nothing more than a cycle.”
“I know that living too long will gradually lead to confusion, so I learned what she taught me. My courtyard also has the four seasons of cold and heat, and I also get thirsty and hungry, as proof that I am alive in this world.”
“In my eyes, she was always quiet and serene, as if nothing in the world could stir her emotions. But whenever it concerned you, she would always change into someone else.”
Unexpectedly, when she mentioned her again, Fang Moye suddenly felt that she really didn’t resent her that much. Soon, she stopped thinking about it, and a faint sadness reappeared on her brows.
“I still can’t quite figure out how that treasure of yours operates…”
Jiang Huai had no choice but to explain his system to Fang Moye again. This time, he didn’t hide much. Many of the system’s missions seemed to be related to women. These seemed to be his hidden thoughts.
However, at this point, Jiang Huai felt a little embarrassed. It was as if he had revealed all the dark sides of his heart to Fang Moye.
“Everyone has wicked thoughts. It’s not shameful to acknowledge their existence.”
Fang Moye’s eyes were clear, which slightly dispelled Jiang Huai’s embarrassment. However, after a moment, she softly asked, “But have you ever thought about why she would leave this treasure inside your body in this way?”
Jiang Huai fell silent. He vaguely guessed the answer, but he didn’t say it.
Fang Moye also seemed to have a vague answer, but there was no need to mention it further.
“If wicked thoughts will trigger it to send out missions, then do you… have wicked thoughts towards me right now?” Fang Moye stared into Jiang Huai’s eyes, beginning to explore a possibility.
Jiang Huai shook his head. Even though he was looking at Fang Moye at this moment, the system showed no signs of activation. Fang Moye began to ponder again.
“Perhaps it’s not sensing wicked thoughts, but fundamental nature?” Fang Moye suddenly muttered.
“Nature?”
“Greed, lust, arrogance, envy, gluttony, sloth, wrath are all human natures. They accompany a person from birth. Perhaps when these natures are triggered by certain specific stimuli, it will issue a mission?”
“I don’t know,” Jiang Huai shook his head. “Many of my missions seem to be related to lust, and I’ve had a few missions triggered by wrath.”
“In that case, you should have lust towards me,” Fang Moye murmured to herself, engrossed in thought, not realizing anything improper about her words.
“You are my Ancestral Master. How could I have lust towards you?” Jiang Huai felt a bit exasperated.
“Then what was the reason for the mission that was suddenly triggered earlier?” Fang Moye frowned slightly and continued to ponder. Then, she slowly turned her head. “Do you mind if I use you as an experiment?”
“How does Ancestral Master intend to proceed?”
“I want to see if I can lure out your treasure and trigger the mission conditions.”
“This…”
Just as Jiang Huai was about to say something, Fang Moye gently bit her lip. “We don’t have much time left.”
So, Jiang Huai no longer resisted. He simply sat up. Fang Moye also stood up and came before him. She suddenly lifted her delicate and fair jade foot, her small foot almost stepping on him. In this posture, her snow-white, slender calf was slightly revealed. Gazing at the exquisite, tender foot in front of him, which was like a perfect work of art, he heard Fang Moye’s gentle voice, “Did it trigger?”
“No.” Jiang Huai shook his head. He wasn’t deliberately suppressing anything, but he truly heard no dinging sounds. The system was usually very diligent in giving out missions, and Jiang Huai still had several pending tasks. Yet, it was completely silent now.
“You… hold my ankle and try again.”
Jiang Huai had no choice but to slowly extend his hand and gently grasp her delicate, snow-white ankle. Her ankle was also warm and smooth, as if coated with a layer of balm. Even though Jiang Huai deliberately thought of something inappropriate, even imagining what it would be like if his Ancestral Master were to punish his feet, his system still showed no signs of triggering.
The atmosphere seemed to become tense. He withdrew his hand as if shocked and shook his head, “It didn’t trigger.”
Fang Moye bit her lip and returned to the lounge chair. She continued to chat with Jiang Huai about various possibilities, analyzing the trigger conditions, but it was still meaningless. Jiang Huai didn’t hear a single ding.
Fang Moye had to give up. The sky was getting dark, and a light mist had already formed in the courtyard. She rubbed her tired brow and stood up, “That’s all for today. I’m going to bathe.”
After taking a few steps, Fang Moye suddenly seemed to think of something. She looked back at him, her eyes appearing to hold a hint of reproach or perhaps a warning, and said, “You are not allowed to follow.”
Instantly, a “ding” sounded in Jiang Huai’s ear.
[Fairy Fang Moye, Fang Moye, has a holy appearance, but her figure is extraordinarily seductive. Since birth, she has possessed a rare innate seductive constitution, her greatest hidden secret, known to no one except Chu Xianning. Through years of cultivating a quiet mind, she has indeed achieved the Seven Orifices Exquisite Heart.]
[However, she is ultimately born with a seductive constitution and must rely on self-gratification during her daily baths to alleviate her inner desires. A scene of this cold and pure fairy pleasuring herself in front of you, how could you miss it?]
[Mission Target: Use the Star Escape technique from the Star God Blood to spy on Fang Moye bathing.]
[Mission Reward: Divine Emperor Pearl Shard * 2.]
Jiang Huai suddenly looked up. At this moment, the warning in Fang Moye’s eyes had completely disappeared. Her eyes held a hint of confusion and anticipation, and she softly asked, “Did it trigger?”
“Yes.” Jiang Huai nodded immediately, and then… he recited all the information about this mission.
Instantly, Fang Moye’s cheeks blushed. She instinctively took a step back. She was embarrassed, not by the mission objective, but by the divine item on Jiang Huai, which had even revealed her innate seductive constitution.
Fang Moye and Jiang Huai looked at each other for a moment. Jiang Huai was the first to shyly look away. He didn’t really want to reveal his dark side to a senior he wasn’t very familiar with, but the situation was critical, and he seemed to have no other choice. Fang Moye also fell silent for a moment. After some thought, she slowly asked, “Are you willing to save the hundreds of billions of lives in the Corrupted Domain?”
“This disciple is naturally willing.”
“Then… complete the mission.”
Fang Moye turned around, leaving Jiang Huai with only her slender back as she gradually disappeared into the thick mist.
Jiang Huai’s eye twitched slightly. He tried to call out to Xiao Ning again, but the system remained cold and offered no response. What was this now? Spying on her bathing while Fang Moye clearly knew about it? How could that be considered spying? Besides… if Chu Xianning found out about this, would she make him kneel and confess immediately? Dammit, damn it, damn it!
