Chapter 4: Abyss Sword Intent

A woman dressed in a green robe, with a yellow hairpin tied in her hair, stood with her hands behind her back in front of the mountain gate, overlooking Muyu Feifei without saying a word.

Muyu Feifei instantly wilted.

Feifei sat on her neck, forming a small Buddha statue.

Lu Ya looked up.

The woman was the Five-Star Immortal Master, a middle-aged woman with a dignified appearance. Her willow eyebrows and bright eyes were elegant but not seductive. Her demeanor was solemn with a hint of warmth.

Under the green robe, her figure was voluptuous, but thanks to the well-tailored clothing, her appearance was dignified and her temperament graceful. She looked very elegant without any excessive plumpness.

So this is the wealthy fairy who is three thousand years old?

The so-called beautiful female sect master?

Well, she is indeed beautiful...

Three thousand years old is not considered old.

The problem is that your dignified temperament makes you seem old in spirit!

I should call you "auntie".

Hello, auntie.

Young man, you're quite good. Auntie will take you to get a BMW when it's dawn.

The sense of déjà vu is too strong!

Lu Ya suddenly felt a bit timid.

Muyu Feifei still held the small Buddha statue, and the four round ears on her twin buns stood up.

Although they seemed a bit weak in terms of momentum, with Lu Ya's support, the two of them proudly held the small Buddha statue.

With their two big heads raised up and standing on the stone steps three zhang away from the woman, they did not take another step closer.

Seeing that the two girls showed no remorse, but instead took pride in their actions, the woman furrowed her brows slightly and asked sternly, "You dare to come back after running away? Where is Qingluan?"

Speaking of Qingluan, the two girls burped and pulled Lu Ya, quickly changing the subject, "Master, we brought a man back for the sect master."

"Look, isn't he handsome?"

Master?

So Auntie is not your sect master?

Lu Ya breathed a sigh of relief and silently let go of the F key in her heart.

The woman was slightly displeased.

Activating her immortal power, she waved her sleeve from a distance and gave each of the two girls a big slap.

"Qingluan is already inside you! And this man you brought is also someone you deceived from another place. You will be confined for three days and not allowed to eat, drink, or go out."

Muyu Feifei covered her head, feeling very resentful. She raised her little face and pouted, showing her teeth in protest.

"Auntie, you're too harsh. We don't want to be confined!"

"We brought a man back for the sect master... We have made great contributions!"

Auntie...

The woman's forehead was filled with black lines, as if her sensitive spot had been touched.

Two more big slaps directly shattered the small Buddha statue the two girls were holding.

In the Immortal World, fairies were considered beautiful if they were slender and free from worldly desires.

Fairies disliked being too voluptuous, as it made them seem too worldly.

The woman quietly adjusted her collar, making it look loose and flowing.

She glanced at Lu Ya, and upon realizing that he was just a mortal, a subtle hint of regret flashed in her steady and bright eyes.

"How should I address you, young sir?"

Lu Ya was slightly taken aback.

Immortals rarely addressed Immortal Citizens as "young sir".

Her tone was also very pleasant, without any condescending feeling, completely different from her imposing figure.

Before Lu Ya could speak, the two girls eagerly answered, "Let me introduce you - this is Auntie... cough cough, this is Ning Zhongzi, the Elder of Bamboo Spring Sect's Discipline and Medicine Department."

They deliberately emphasized the word "elder" with a long and heavy tone. Then they pointed at Lu Ya and said, "This is..."

"Oh right, young man, what's your name?"

"Lu Ya."

"That's right, this is Lu Ya. He caught Qingluan. Look, isn't he handsome?"

Ning Zhongzi's eyebrows twitched slightly, clearly not believing the words of the two girls, and even feeling a bit embarrassed.

"I apologize for the girls' behavior."

"It's alright. I came here just to find a place for enlightenment... Along the way, I met these two children who said your sect is recruiting people, so I came to take a look."

Enlightenment for mortals?

The woman furrowed her brows slightly, feeling that it was not very reliable, but she still maintained a polite tone.

"How did the two children talk to you?"

"They said that if they become dao companions with the sect master, they can become the Elder in charge of the sword, ranked as an Immortal Class member. They don't have to do anything every month and can receive thirty immortal crystals."

"It's true that they don't have to do anything, and there are certain things they especially shouldn't do. For a mortal like you, doing those things would be life-threatening."

What does "certain things they especially shouldn't do" mean?

Doing them would be life-threatening?

Lu Ya originally thought there might be trouble and wanted to find an excuse to leave. But now, hearing the woman's words, he suddenly became curious.

"What exactly are the things they shouldn't do?"

"I cannot have any romantic feelings towards the sect leader, that's all."

Ning Zhongzi did not hide anything, his clear eyes calm as water.

"Can you do it, young master?"

"Just pretend to be a couple?"

"Something like that."

"Understood."

Lu Ya appeared serious on the surface, but felt joy in his heart.

Love is not as good as a game, and he had a deep understanding of how troublesome love can be. That's why he didn't mind being kept by a wealthy fairy. He would rather sell his body than be in a romantic relationship.

Now the wealthy fairy said,

"I don't even want your body, I just want us to pretend to be a couple, and you can enjoy a worry-free life as a salted fish..."

How clever!

"It's simple to not have romantic feelings, but I see that your sect has few members. How will it be sustained?"

Is it really that simple to not have romantic feelings?

Ning Zhongzi was slightly startled, swept his eyes, and carefully observed Lu Ya again.

Although he was only an Immortal Citizen, his appearance was extraordinary, and his demeanor exuded a resolute immortal aura.

He looked at himself with proper eyes, not like ordinary men who would ogle at fairies...

Are there really such pure men in this world?

Why is such a man only an Immortal Citizen?

As for how the Bamboo Spring Sect will be sustained, Ning Zhongzi was very confident.

"As long as the young master truly does not have romantic feelings, our sect can thrive for a long time."

Does not engaging in sexual activities lead to longevity?

Lu Ya became even more curious.

"Let's see how it goes."

Ning Zhongzi was slightly surprised in his heart, but still politely led Lu Ya up the mountain.

"Please follow me."

...

Ning Zhongzi took out a slender spiritual sword and carried Lu Ya to the Sword Plateau at the top of the mountain.

The Sword Plateau was located on the north side of the mountaintop.

The mountaintop was covered in undulating bamboo forests, with slender and verdant bamboo shoots resembling inverted swords.

Cherry blossoms could be seen scattered everywhere, presenting a completely different style compared to the pine and maple trees on the mountainside.

The Sword Plateau was a suspended giant rock.

The south side leaned against the bamboo forest, and several ancient pine trees grew in the cracks of the cliff. A clear stream cascaded down into a waterfall beside the ancient pines.

Standing beside the waterfall, one could see the scenery of the entire northern half of the Floating Mountain, with a sky full of clouds and a river flowing through the fields, all incredibly beautiful.

On the western side of the Sword Plateau, the golden sunlight pierced through the sea of clouds, sprinkling the earth, as if bestowing a magnificent divinity upon the Floating Mountain.

Lu Ya stared blankly, feeling the same as when he first played the game.

Next-generation graphics details.

Spectacular fairyland design.

Flowing colors of the clouds and light...

All brought a shocking visual effect and unparalleled immersion.

But the grandeur of the real Immortal World surpassed that of the game!

At this moment, Muyu Feifei also followed.

Ning Zhongzi said to the two of them,

"I will accompany the young master here, you two go and call the sect leader."

The two tigers bounced and jumped, excitedly diving into the bamboo forest.

Ning Zhongzi stood with his hands behind his back at the edge of the cliff.

"The sunset is beautiful, isn't it?"

Lu Ya nodded.

"Take a good look. If you have even the slightest romantic feelings for the sect leader, this will be the last time you see the sunset in your life."

Lu Ya:

"..."

Ning Zhongzi turned around and tidied Lu Ya's robe, seeing that he didn't look away and his breath was steady, he finally relaxed a little.

Lu Ya's curiosity had long been piqued, and he had no interest in Ning Zhongzi in front of him.

His divine sense spread out, instantly covering the entire mountaintop.

Although the mountaintop had some undulations, it was generally flat, covering dozens of acres of land, with extensive bamboo forests and scattered cherry trees.

In the middle of the forest was a clear lake, with several pavilions by its side.

To the north was the Sword Plateau where Lu Ya stood.

To the south was a majestic palace for discussions.

To the east was a medicinal garden.

To the west was a hot spring.

The mist rose from the hot spring, connecting with the sea of clouds outside the cliff, creating a vast and hazy scene, like a paradise on earth.

Lu Ya's divine sense passed through the mist and saw a clear spring, with sporadic bamboo leaves and cherry blossoms floating on it.

A woman leaned against the edge of the hot spring with fair jade arms, her eyes closed. Slowly, her lazy sword-like eyes opened.

In the instant when Lu Ya's divine sense made contact with the woman's eyes...

A Sword Intent, as if from the depths of ancient abyss, instantly pierced into Lu Ya's dantian.
