Dual Cultivation God Returns

On one of the days, she came, but Ye Ling opened the door instead of Wu Long. Seeing her slightly widened eyes, Ye Ling smiled.

"Wu Long is out right now, come in, you can wait for him here"

She said with a friendly smile.

Hua Ziyan slightly timidly nodded and followed Ye Ling inside.

As an Elder, Ye Ling had a small mansion with a few rooms and an inner courtyard in between them.

There was also a small garden there, but it was now covered in snow.

As Hua Ziyan sat in a room Ye Ling usually met guests in, Ye Ling came with a tray and poured tea for them.

As Ye Ling was watching Hua Ziyan, the latter looked somewhat nervous.

"I have noticed this recently, but you seem to misunderstand something...

You do not need to have a guilty consciousness to me if you want to pursue a relationship with Wu Long. He is not one to be satisfied with having one woman, and I knew that before I started my relationship with him. I accept that part of him, it is enough for me to be loyal only to him"

She said, with a slight chuckle as she noticed Hua Ziyan's eyes becoming a bit shifty around her recently, as well as her becoming unusually timid in her presence.

She of course recognized the look Hua Ziyan had when she looked at Wu Long, so she found it somewhat comical that she was hesitating over not trying to betray her senior apprentice sister by vying for the same man.

"You just have to be ready for being not the only one..."

"I am!"

As Hua Ziyan looked up at her and loudly exclaimed, Ye Ling was slightly startled by how sudden and loud it was. A smile once more bloomed on her face. It was gentle and graceful, and instantly made Hua Ziyan blush.

Hua Ziyan recently got more and more courage to start pursuing Wu Long, but then another worry appeared in her mind as she watched him surround Ye Ling with care and love as they traveled back.

She felt guilty about trying to pursue him and potentially ruin the happiness of her senior-apprentice sister she respected so much.

"Then, there is nothing that stops you, although if you really want to become his woman and not just a cultivation partner, you would have to be loyal only to him. He is quite selfish and does not like sharing, though I find it quite charming, hehe"

Ye Ling then said and Hua Ziyan nodded since she never had anyone fall in her eyes anyway.

As they drank tea, Hua Ziyan got some more words of encouragement and advice from Ye Ling, who knew that Wu Long did not have any partners to cultivate in these past two weeks of travel and half a week in the sect.

"Hmm? What are you lovely ladies talking about that you're so secretive?"

As Wu Long returned, he heard the talking and laughing stop and when he entered the room they were already looking in his direction.

Ye Ling smiled charmingly and turned to continue drinking her tea.

As he tried to find out, Ye Ling only smiled while Hua Ziyan bashfully said that it was nothing.

Then Wu Long advised Hua Ziyan on her technique again, and after the lecture ended,

"I...I have to ask you something..."

Hua Ziyan finally took a deep breath and said.

Wu Long simply turned to her and looked with a tranquil gaze, though he already knew what was coming, he was just waiting.

She took another deep breath, calming herself down.

"I want to dual cultivate with you if you accept me. I can also promise that I will not cultivate with anyone else"

She said in a clear voice, there was an alluring rosiness on her cheeks, but she was collected and determined.

He liked that determination and honesty. She became more and more interesting to him recently, blooming from a little girl who he did not really view as attractive beyond her looks, into a vibrant alluring young lady. There was a charm in her now that did not exist before the trip.

'It really is easy and fast for mortals to change...'

Wu Long thought as he looked at her with curiosity. There was definitely a pull of attraction to her now. If she asked before the trip he might have had second thoughts, but now,

"I am happy to oblige, and am honored you picked me to pluck your Pure Yin Essence, though I must say that you did choose the right person"

Wu Long smiled, and it was a different smile from the kind one he usually gave her. His response prompted a joyous light to appear in her eyes, and at the same time, she felt a numb feeling go from her blushing cheeks through her neck and then down her spine just from this smile and tone of voice.

"Although I was not sure you would agree, I have got approval from my master, as I am a Prime Disciple, I have to get approval from her first. But... she had a condition that we must cultivate in one of the cultivation caves on the Peak of Unity, as that is where most elders and inner court disciples cultivate at least once a month"

She hurriedly added so that he is not inconvenienced.

Wu Long simply nodded and told her that he will be waiting for her to contact him.

"Um"

She said when he turned around and stopped to look back at her.

"A...Are you free now?"

keep track of their surroundings.

15:58

As he now knew that the sect leader was a lot more powerful than he previously estimated, he was They arrived at the Peak of Unity soon, and under the dumbfounded gazes of people in the surroundings got through the post of sect protectors.

When they started climbing up, Wu Long felt a very powerful and very skillfully concealed spiritual sense lock onto them. He did not give it much thought as it was normal for powerful cultivators to keep track of their surroundings.

As he now knew that the sect leader was a lot more powerful than he previously estimated, he was not surprised by this.

Once they arrived at the cultivation cave she already reserved in advance Wu Long was once more amused at how determined this girl was, just like he was a bit surprised and amused when he found out that she was intending on starting immediately. The registration date on the small plaque near the entrance was from the day they arrived at the sect three days ago and for the entire month.

Once they were in the cave, something caught Wu Long's attention and his eyes flickered with profound patterns for a moment, and a stunned and amused at the same time chuckle escaped from him.

Hua Ziyan looked at him, puzzled by the sound.

"Dorry if I startled you, I was just interested in how these caves were furnished and 'equipped', that's all"

He said with a smile.

As she operated a small array on the wall of the cave, the thick stone sliding door closed, and as they passed through a rather narrow but short corridor, they arrived in a stone chamber, dimly and intimately lit.

There was a large bed, sofas & armchairs set around a low table, a tall table with chairs around, and a separate bathroom.

Seeing Wu Long's questioning gaze, Hua Ziyan explained

"There are many people who stay cooped up in here for weeks on end, so there is a place to dine and rest. Though it is all equipped with cleaning formations so they are also suitable for cultivation"

Wu Long nodded with appreciation, it seems that despite the sect being made basically on a whim of the Palace Master, it was a proper dual cultivation sect. But beyond that, Wu Long was pleasantly surprised and a little impressed that while being shy and slightly immature about her feelings and expressing them, she was completely fine talking about dual cultivation and seemed eager to start despite being a maiden.

"You seem not very nervous about dual cultivating"

He noted, in a light tone so that it was a simple curiosity.

She nodded,

"To be honest, senior apprentice-sister Ye who the master has brought to the sect as a Prime Disciple before me did not intend to dual cultivate at all, and senior apprentice-sister Jue who came after her, while did dual cultivate, had a difficult personality, both eventually having to step down from the position of Prime Disciple, causing her a proper amount of vexation.

I was brought into the sect from being a street orphan from a big city that did not care about street urchins. I am deeply grateful to master. So I always knew that I will have to dual cultivate to meet her expectations since I want to make her happy. It was just that none of the people before you got me to really want to dual cultivate, but I read nearly all the scrolls my master has in her private library, learned all the necessary skills in theory, and have been mentally prepared for this long ago"

She said, making his opinion of her rise even more. She really surprised and attracted him the more closely he looked at her.

He nodded and came closer to her.

She did not flinch and seemed even eager to start, so he first gave her a light kiss. He thought she deserved a start that at least resembled a romantic night for her first time, though it will certainly not stay that way any further.

As he kissed her, he found out that she really did learn, it was a bit clumsy because of the lack of practical experience, but there was technique in her kiss. He deepened the kiss and guided her, as she quickly grasped the guidance and improved.

As they kissed his hands traveled to her waist and chest, while hers went to his forearm and shoulder.

"..Wait!"

Her body started to heat up, and as he ended the kiss and began the travel of his mouth down her neck, she suddenly stopped him.

"I want to start if you do not mind"

She said as he looked at her to ask what was wrong. When he heard her answer, he stopped and decided to see what was on her mind.

It's finally time for her to shine XD

And I believe she is going to shine XP XD

Also, I received some kind of summoning pen, so I decided to try releasing the chap this way XD
