A Sect from a Spirit Vein

Chapter 196: Chapter 165: Night Meeting with Yunniang

Lu Qian chuckled lightly, ”I’m just a small sect, forced to be cautious, naturally making it difficult to sleep. The Divine Flood Dragon Sect is vast and powerful, dominating one area. What could trouble Lady Ji enough to keep her awake at night?”

The white snake opened its mouth, its sharp fangs gleaming coldly, but from within came the playful laughter of a woman, sounding quite eerie, ”Is it not because of a certain someone? Though I clearly stated during the day that I would wait for you for the night in Room No. 1 at the Gathering Immortals Tower, I waited left and right, yet Sect Leader Lu didn’t come. So, I had to deliver myself to the doorstep.”

Lu Qian scrutinized the large white snake, ”Since you’ve come voluntarily, why do so with an incarnation? I do not possess the ability to sleep with a snake.”

The white snake gently swayed its tail, suddenly opening its mouth widely, the upper and lower jaws stretching to 180 degrees, and a delicate arm slowly extended out from within.

Soon, another arm followed, both hands supporting the upper and lower jaws of the snake, pulling hard, as Ji Yunrou’s impressively sized upper body slowly squeezed out.

The beauty, amiably angry and pleased, propped her delicate cheeks with slender hands, ”Lu Lang, am I not right here? However, I seem to be stuck. Would you mind helping to lift me out?”

If she weren’t speaking from within a snake’s mouth, she might even be more alluring. Lu Qian merely watched her coldly, as the light in his arms grew brighter.

He genuinely couldn’t grasp this woman’s background, nor understand why she had come here in the night, yet it seemed inappropriate to directly attack.

The woman had just used a secret technique to bypass several arrays, and cultivators wouldn’t constantly release their divine sense for vigilance, only sensing when one approaches, allowing her to evade detection and appear before Lu Qian.

But nonetheless, should they clash, the entire tower would be alarmed. Guh Niqiang resided on the twelfth floor, making the solitary arrival of Ji Yunrou not as threatening.

Seeing Lu Qian unmoved, Ji Yunrou pouted, her lips full and red, reluctantly moving her body from the snake’s mouth.

Her slender waist, full peach-shaped figure, and elongated, shapely legs gradually slid out from the white snake’s mouth.

The Jade Flood Dragon Fairy landed lightly on the ground, gesturing with a hand as the enormous white snake instantly shrank, merging with her shadow.

”Lu Lang really hits back; even though I’m here in person, it’s Lu Lang who greets me with an incarnation.”

Lu Qian’s expression slightly changed, ”How did you see through it?”

Ji Yunrou giggled, ”Your technique is quite mysterious, even divine sense can’t spot the flaw. But, there’s something you forgot; snakes don’t rely on eyes to perceive the world.”

So that’s it, was it the snake’s infrared perception and heightened sense of smell?

This woman truly isn’t simple; even Guh Niqiang was deceived when she first saw my secret technique.

Lu Qian nodded, his figure suddenly flickering like mist, dissipating into the air.

With a creak, a wooden door in the conference room opened, revealing a solemn-faced Lu Qian.

”Lu Lang, your magic technique is quite interesting, what’s its name?”

Lu Qian gestured for her to sit, ”This is my Yunshan Sect secret technique, Wind Shadow Cloud Body, unintentionally appearing like child’s play before Lady Ji, pardon me.”

Over the past two years, not only has the Wave Array Secret Manual made incredible breakthroughs, but the Yunshan Sect’s ancestral secret technique, Wind Shadow Cloud Body, has also made slight progress. With his current strength of spiritual sense, only Golden Core Masters can see through this cloud mist incarnation.

Lu Qian combined the cloud mist incarnation with the Five Elements Grand Array, developing many wondrous applications. Even Guh Niqiang suffered a small setback when she first encountered it in a sparring session.

But unexpectedly, Ji Yunrou’s secret technique was extraordinary, using the snake’s remarkable sense ability to see through the cloud mist incarnation.

This served as a reminder for himself to find ways to address this shortcoming in the future.

Moreover, by this logic, Ling Xuzi, who is from the same sect as Ji Yunrou, might possess similar means. In the upcoming tournament, caution is essential.

Lu Qian grew increasingly cautious, yet saw Ji Yunrou sit down at the conference table, her brows curved in delight.

She leaned forward slightly, resting her white, tender face in her hands, as the heavy fruits pressed onto the table, displaying an astonishingly smooth curve.

”Lu Lang’s technique can deceive the world, yet it fails to trick me, indicating our destined connection. Would you mind calling me Yunniang?”

The woman currently refrains from using charm art, yet naturally exudes myriad charms, captivating and alluring, her incredibly attractive body capable of driving men mad.

Lu Qian cautiously diverted his gaze, ”Lady Ji jests, our two houses aren’t there yet in familiarity. You’ve come this late at night, please speak directly.”

Ji Yunrou gave Lu Qian an aggrieved glance and stood up, lazily stretching like a cat, showcasing her unburdened curves.

She then chuckled lightly, stepped forward, accompanied by a waft of fragrance, standing before Lu Qian, leaning against the conference table. Her skirt’s waves unfolded, her smooth, jade-like skin contrasting starkly with the pitch-black tabletop.

Ji Yunrou’s eyes grew misty as she extended a hand, aiming to stroke Lu Qian’s cheek, ”Under the night sky, alone, a man and woman in a room, Lu Lang, what do you think I want to do?”

Lu Qian suddenly stood, withdrawing lightning-fast, the light in his arms flashing rapidly.

His expression turned extremely stern, he commanded in a deep voice, ”Lady Ji, I’m merely a Qi Cultivator, aware of my own weight, and unlikely to earn your interest for such closeness. If you refuse to clarify, I must ask you to leave.”

Ji Yunrou stared at Lu Qian, as though gazing at a heartless man, her eyes reddened as if about to cry, ”Lu Lang truly lacks romantic understanding; I genuinely mean it, yet you discard me as worthless, how cruel.”

At this moment, even Lu Qian felt swayed, tempted to wonder whether he had indeed erred, longing to embrace the jade-like woman before him and cherish her lovingly.

But Lu Qian tightly clenched his fist, his knuckles turned white as he tightened his grip. His gaze sharpened, spiritual power began to surge, five jade seals rose and circled around him, spreading five-colored light throughout the room.

Should Ji Yunrou make any move, Lu Qian would attack directly!

Ji Yunrou finally composed herself, raising both hands, ”Alright, alright, there’s no man more cold-hearted than Lu Lang.”

”I have two deals to discuss with Lu Lang.”

Lu Qian steadied his spiritual power, gesturing for her to continue.

”The loose cultivators hired by Fanglan Square and Jiuzhi Square to cause trouble have already hidden in the marketplace. But as long as Lu Lang agrees to one condition, I’ll hand them all over to you, deal?”
