Chapter 279: Chapter 134: My Cultivation with the Fairy!_3
“`
“If I end up having several children, that would delay the prime of my early years.”
“Qingyun Sect might, for the sake of letting their disciples focus on cultivation and sever worldly ties, just sever me instead.”
“By then, what was supposed to be a streak of romantic luck would turn into a calamity.”
“So Lu Changsheng was very clear in his heart that a woman like Xiao Xiyue, he currently could not resist.”
Meanwhile.
Under the guidance of Lu Xile, Xiao Xiyue met the other wives, concubines, and children of Lu Changsheng.
She knew that Lu Changsheng had married numerous wives and concubines, and had many children.
But when she actually saw so many wives and children all at once, she still felt a bit surprised.
However, she didn’t know that these twenty-plus children were only a small part.”
After separating from Lu Changsheng and spending some time chatting and playing with Lu Xile and a few children, Xiao Xiyue found her mindset gradually returning to tranquility and indifference.”
She reverted to her usual state of the ‘Supreme Forgetful Love Technique.’
“Is it really so?”
Xiao Xiyue murmured to herself, her eyes clear as water, detached and calm as she looked into the distance.
She was almost certain that only Lu Changsheng could help her see through illusions and break through to the next realm.”
As for how to see through them, she had some idea in her mind.
When she was by Lu Changsheng’s side, her mental state was affected, causing the ‘Supreme Forgetful Love Technique’ to operate automatically.
If she could be unaffected in any way, keeping her heart tranquil and detached no matter what, she thought that would be seeing through the illusions and achieving a great state of mind.
However, she still needed to continue to confirm this.”
…
In this manner, Xiao Xiyue stayed at the Lu Residence.
Lu Changsheng had planned to return to Qingzhu Mountain after the gathering,
but due to Xiao Xiyue’s presence, he changed his plans.
He spent his time, taking Xiao Xiyue to wander around Ruyi Prefecture, observing the so-called afflictions of life and the chaos of the red dust.”
Lu Changsheng himself didn’t know what these afflictions and chaos specifically entailed.
And Xiao Xiyue couldn’t explain clearly either.
So, considering that she came from a literary family and had entered Qingyun Sect for cultivation at the age of fifteen,
he decided to show her some of the suffering of life, the hardships of the lower class:
Like the women who were forced into brothels.
The roadside vendors in the streets and alleys, the roughnecks, the beggars with disabilities.
The dock workers who labored in hard and toilsome jobs.
The teahouses, the wine lodges, the restaurants, patrons of all different stripes.
The gangs of the jianghu, killing and fighting over interests.
One day, Lu Changsheng took Xiao Xiyue to a village in Ruyi Prefecture.
It was a very poor and backward village.
Yellow earth facing the sky, the mud roads pitted and uneven.
Fields lined the sides of the road.
The crops in the fields had been completely harvested.
But one could still see some emaciated and frail farmers in ragged clothing, with children, carrying baskets on their backs, picking up the grains missed during the harvest in the fields.
Among them were some women who had just given birth, carrying infants who were crying for food, with faces of sheer exhaustion.
When they saw Lu Changsheng and Xiao Xiyue, fear and humility showed in their eyes, with stiff, ingratiating smiles.”
“Sigh.”
Lu Changsheng sighed deeply at the sight.
He did not know how Xiao Xiyue’s state of mind had been these days.
But the hardships of this world genuinely made him feel a heavy heart.”
He felt somewhat relieved, apprehensive, and panicked.”
“`
Fortunate to possess a Spiritual Root, he had initially obtained a celestial fate.
He was able to go to Qingyun Sect to participate in the Immortal Sects’ examination.
Otherwise, a peasant boy like him, even if he awakened his memories and had a system, would still face great difficulties.
It would take an unknown amount of time, energy, and effort to struggle up from this lowly position.
“Xiao Daoist, have you gained anything in these past few days?”
Lu Changsheng sighed lightly and asked Xiao Xiyue.
Seeing all the hardships made him cherish his current life even more and gave him the motivation to keep striving.
“All living beings suffer,”
Xiao Xiyue said softly.
These days, she had seen much with Lu Changsheng, and her heart was deeply touched, reaping no small gains.
But she could feel that these were not greatly helpful for her own breakthrough.
The main focus was still on Lu Changsheng.
However, through the days of being together, Xiao Xiyue’s heart had also sunk into the influence of Lu Changsheng.
Whenever they came into close contact, Xiao Xiyue felt herself enveloped in a spring breeze that swayed her Mental Spirit, prompting the Supreme Forgetful Love Technique to activate.
But she also realized that just this was not enough, not sufficient for her to see through illusion, for her mental state to break through.
She knew in her heart that she needed to go further with Lu Changsheng.
Only by experiencing the so-called ‘Love Trial’ could she truly refine her mental state, achieve great enlightenment, and see through illusion with the Supreme Forgetful Love.
“Lu Daoist has worked hard these past few days,”
Xiao Xiyue looked at Lu Changsheng and said.
Her voice was no longer so cold, but much gentler.
Soon after, the two returned to Ruyi Prefecture to prepare for their visit to the cultivation marketplace the next day.
Night fell.
Because they were leaving tomorrow,
Lu Changsheng naturally spent a good time with his wives and concubines.
Meanwhile,
Xiao Xiyue sat cross-legged in her room.
Her mind was in turmoil; she couldn’t fall asleep or enter a state of cultivation.
“Love Trial.”
Xiao Xiyue understood that she had been refining her mental state and seeing through illusion with the help of Lu Changsheng.
Yet, at the same time, these days had also made her troubled by the cage that was Lu Changsheng.
Although her mental state had improved, she had sunk deeper and had to rely on the ‘Love Trial’ for great enlightenment.
She operated the Supreme Forgetful Love Technique and suppressed her distracting thoughts.
She stepped out of her room, her skirt fluttering, landing on the roof, and quietly gazed at the bright moon in the sky.
The moonlight spilled over her, bathing her moon-white dress and flawless body, making her even more immaculate and noble, like the Guanghan Fairy in the Moon Palace.
The gentle night breeze lifted a corner of the moon-white dress, revealing the Fairy’s smooth, round legs, like ivory-white jade without an ounce of excess flesh, naturally perfect, unrivaled in grace and beauty.
The wind also lifted the Fairy’s black hair.
Strands of black hair and the moon-white dress swayed in the wind, dancing with the breeze, reflecting the owner’s current mood and state of mind.
Her bright, moon-like eyes gazed absently at a courtyard in the residence.
“Whew!”

Xiao Xiyue took a deep breath and slowly exhaled.
She knew that without a mental realization, she would never be able to refine the Supreme Forgetful Love Technique.
Immediately, a look of determination appeared in her eyes as she floated towards Lu Changsheng’s courtyard.
She was ready to tell him directly that she needed to experience the ‘Love Trial’ to completely see through illusion.
And not just to casually observe the myriad aspects of the world, amid the muddled and tumultuous mortal life.
