Chapter 119: Can't You Sacrifice A bit

Despite the enhancement of his newly acquired skills, Lu Xun didn't achieve the desired effect with his waist strength. According to his earlier fantasies, the little demoness should have been crying her heart out, but to his surprise, she seemed far from satisfied.

Lu Xun looked at the little demoness in front of him, feeling a bit flustered. He cautiously asked, "Wife, it's getting late. Shouldn't we rest for a while? Husband is feeling a bit exhausted."

Xuan Yin smiled at him and said affectionately, "Husband, don't worry. I was just carried away in the moment. I'm not asking for anything. I've already passed the stage of irrationality, so you can rest assured. Of course, if Husband isn't satisfied, I'm ready to spar with you at any time."

"Satisfied! Satisfied! Very satisfied!"

Important matters need to be said three times. The once proud and arrogant Lu Xun was now reduced to seeking survival.

He held the little demoness tightly, softly speaking, "Well, I may have been a bit too naive, thinking that my improved strength could challenge my wife's limits. I never expected it to turn out this tragically."

"Naturally."

"The endurance of a snake demoness is no empty boast. If it were my master in your arms tonight, you'd probably be six feet under by now," the little demoness said as she wriggled into the most comfortable position, her fingers drawing circles on his chest. She mumbled, "But you're even more heroic than the other day."

Lu Xun smiled, casting off his earlier despondency, and said confidently, "Of course, I'll always try my best."

Xuan Yin playfully rolled her eyes at him and muttered, "You've started being arrogant again. Can't you change your habits? Don't you feel embarrassed? Clearly, you have no real strength, yet you pretend to be invincible."

Isn't it because you're too strong? Lu Xun muttered to himself inwardly as he gently stroked the little demoness's hair. He said tenderly, "It's just my personality. In fact, my strength is pretty good. In the mortal realm, I would be considered one of the strong ones. But compared to you... well, I fall short."

"That's true."

"But it's only temporary," Xuan Yin said thoughtfully. "Your talent exceeds mine by far. Surpassing me is just a matter of time."

Speaking of which, the little demoness playfully punched Lu Xun and complained, "I wonder how you managed to advance your strength so quickly and even master that sword technique while I was in seclusion. I'm the one who taught you all that."

"Ah, well."

"Alright, alright. No matter how talented I am, it's all thanks to your guidance," Lu Xun said with a cheerful smile. "You've educated me so well."

The little demoness rolled her eyes, snuggling back into his robust chest, and grumbled, "During the time I was in seclusion, did you take little fox out for some fun?"

"We just got back yesterday."

"I went to Yangzhou City with the little fox and your master. We explored the night market and took a boat ride the same evening. We stayed in an inn for the remaining days. Then, I took the little fox to enjoy various activities," Lu Xun answered casually.

"Mmm."

Xuan Yin didn't pay much attention to these details and didn't inquire why her master had gone along. She nestled quietly in his arms, savoring the masculine scent emanating from him. She gently asked, "Husband, do you get bored staying here every day?"

Bored?

"No, no."

"I can't even control you, so I'm not qualified to fool around outside." Lu Xun chuckled awkwardly, "Besides, I don't know how to control a flying sword yet. Even if I reach the innate realm, I still won't be able to. I have a slight fear of heights."

"Uh..."

"In that case, fly at a lower altitude," the little demoness touched his chest and lightly kissed his neck, saying slowly, "If you can't control a flying sword, traveling will be troublesome. Although the little fox's cultivation is not as high as yours, she can transform into a white fox and move around much more conveniently than you."

"Oh." Lu Xun replied absentmindedly.

Seeing his lack of interest, Xuan Yin didn't continue. They washed away their fatigue in the warm pool, and once again, forbidden thoughts emerged in the little demoness's heart.

It could be understood to some extent, after all, a demoness couldn't be judged by human standards of thinking, and Xuan Yin was a snake demoness. While not as ferocious as a thousand-year-old snake demoness, she was still quite formidable after four hundred years.

".."

"Suddenly remembered... I forgot to lock the door!" Lu Xun sensed something amiss and quickly released the little demoness in his arms, attempting to climb out of the warm pool in a hurry.

"Don't run!" Xuan Yin pulled him back, annoyed, "I'm on the verge of a breakthrough. Can't you sacrifice a bit?"

As she spoke, she cupped her husband's cheeks and kissed him fiercely and passionately.

After a while.

"Creak..."

The entrance to the main hall slowly opened.

Xuan Yin wore a loose nightgown, her long hair cascading down her shoulders like a cloud. A hint of tenderness appeared on her seductive face. Just as she opened the door, she saw the little fox practicing her sword in the courtyard and her master sitting absentmindedly in the hall. Instantly, both sides of her cheeks blushed.

The big demoness and the little fox followed the sound and saw Xuan Yin, but the person they were longing for was nowhere to be found. Their hearts skipped a beat.

"Keep up with your sword practice."

Xuan Yin passed by the little fox, gave her a perfunctory pat on the back, and offered some encouragement. She then walked towards the hall.

"Master..."

"I'm a bit tired. I'm going back to my room to rest," Xuan Yin left these words and hurriedly slipped away before anyone could react.

"Where's your husband?" The big demoness frowned slightly and casually asked as Xuan Yin hadn't left yet.

"He's still in the bath."

As soon as she finished speaking, the little demoness, who had indulged herself all night, ran away, leaving the big demoness and the little fox secretly anxious and a little resentful.
