At the door of the room, Lu Nianjiao clutched the sleeves of her clothes, her small, rosy lips pursed tightly as she hesitated to push the door open.

Standing beside her, Mu Xueyan glanced over and couldn't help but tease, "Pretending to be nonchalant, but you're actually quite scared, aren't you?"

Lu Nianjiao's cheeks flushed, and she rolled her eyes at Mu Xueyan. "It's my first time."

Mu Xueyan responded with an emotionless "Oh."

Lu Nianjiao stammered, "I mean... does it really... hurt a lot?"

Mu Xueyan looked away, still expressionless, and answered faintly, "I wouldn't know."

"Have you never experienced it?" Lu Nianjiao asked.

At this question, Mu Xueyan's impassive face began to visibly redden, but she still forced herself to appear composed. "It was too long ago. I've forgotten."

Lu Nianjiao stared at her with newfound curiosity, her jaw dropped in surprise as if she had discovered a new world. "Sister Xueyan, you've lived for over two hundred years. Don't tell me you're still a virgin?"

Hearing this, Mu Xueyan's expression turned cold. "Are you going in or not? If you don't go in now, your precious junior brother might be beyond saving!"

Lu Nianjiao patted her chest, took a deep breath, and pushed the door open.

...

In the quiet room, Lu Nianjiao looked at Luo Xiu on the bed, her heart aching. She knew he was suffering immense pain at that moment—a pain unimaginable to ordinary people.

Without much hesitation, a captivating blush spread across her face. She reached for her chest and slowly untied the ribbon bow.

"Little Mule... I'm sorry."

The sash loosened, and the fragrant, fairy-like white dress gradually slid off her snow-white, tender skin, pooling softly and seductively on the floor.

Luo Xiu seemed to sense the movement and slowly opened his eyes. He froze, stunned by the sight. "Senior Sister, what are you..."

"Don't speak. I'm doing this to save you."

Luo Xiu watched the vision of beauty before him, his Adam's apple bobbing as he swallowed hard. What is going on with these senior sisters? Why are they all...

In just a moment, Lu Nianjiao was left in nothing but her delicate lingerie. Her long, beautiful legs were wrapped in thin, sheer stockings, pure and flawless, yet carrying a seductive power that captivated the soul, like the world's most exquisite work of art.

Under Luo Xiu's silent yet agitated gaze, Lu Nianjiao bent down and removed her high heels. She then placed her hands on her waist and slowly slid the stockings down. When they reached her calves, she lifted her leg to pull them off completely, carefully smoothing them out before setting them aside.

Her figure might not have been as voluptuous and enchanting as Su Shenyun's, but it was perfect in its own right. Her graceful curves showed no flaw or imperfection; she was like a flawless masterpiece.

As a soft fragrance wafted into his nose, Luo Xiu gradually lost his sanity, wanting only to throw all caution to the wind. He didn't know why. He just felt that Lu Nianjiao had something he desperately needed at this moment, so much so that he wished to merge with her and become one.

"Lie still. Don't move."

"..."

Time ticked by.

About two and a half hours later, the once clean and cozy room was a complete mess.

Having returned to normal, Luo Xiu sat on the edge of the bed, took fresh clothes from his Jade Pendant, and put them on unhurriedly. Reflecting on what had just happened, he felt as if he had been dreaming—the most beautiful dream in the world.

Lu Nianjiao lay on the bed, languid and weak, her delicate body covered by a blanket. Her gorgeous face was full of exhaustion, yet it held a radiant vigor, as if she'd been nourished by spring rain. She was like a tender flower bud that, after being nourished by the spring rain, had bloomed into a radiant beauty, emitting an alluring scent.

Filled with guilt, Luo Xiu kept his head down, not daring to look at her or speak.

"Have you still not obtained the other half of the Jade Pendant?" Lu Nianjiao asked, breaking the silence.

Luo Xiu nodded lightly.

"Your Holy Lotus Jade Pendant must be related to your origins," Lu Nianjiao said. "That's what Master told me."

Luo Xiu smiled. "That doesn't matter anymore."

Lu Nianjiao's dry lips parted slightly as she changed the subject. "My Yin Essence should last you for a while. You can't go picking fights with people so recklessly anymore. This time... it was actually my fault. On a whim, I wanted to see if you had improved and nearly caused a disaster."

Luo Xiu shook his head, signaling that it was fine. He smiled and said, "Actually, I was the one who wanted to test my own strength when I heard there was a Sky List Strong One." He paused before asking, "Senior Sister, what realm am I really in?"

Lu Nianjiao smiled. "Do you know why Master only had you practice your skills but never told you about cultivation realms?

"If you knew there were high and low levels, it would be hard not to become competitive. You would subconsciously compare yourself to others and be too hard on yourself.

"You would feel fear when encountering someone of a higher realm and become arrogant when meeting someone of a lower one.

"You would also constantly be thinking about raising your realm, which could lead you down a dead end.

"So, you just need to maintain a calm mind. There's no need to deliberately chase after higher realms."

Luo Xiu fell silent, pondering her words. After a moment, he asked, "Why did you come to Henghai? And what's your relationship with Duan Chunfeng?"

"Silly, I came specifically to see you, of course. As for Duan Chunfeng, he just works for me. Everything he has, I gave him."

Luo Xiu was taken aback. "So you're very rich?"

Lu Nianjiao looked at him with a faint smile. "Extremely rich."

Luo Xiu's face instantly darkened. "Then why did you refuse when I wrote you from the mountains asking you to send me a computer?"

Lu Nianjiao couldn't help but laugh softly. "You had to practice your skills and study medicine every day. What did you need a computer for? Don't you know that such distractions weaken one's will?"

Luo Xiu muttered unconvinced, "Master's old laptop was too laggy."

Lu Nianjiao suddenly gasped as if in pain and tried to sit up, bracing herself with her arms. Luo Xiu quickly reached out to help her. Upon touching her smooth, snow-white skin, he awkwardly looked away.

Lu Nianjiao chided him playfully, "You're a grown man now, and you're still shy? I don't remember you being shy when we used to bathe and sleep together as kids."

Luo Xiu was speechless. "..."

Reminiscing, Lu Nianjiao couldn't help but laugh. "Remember when you were little? You were so curious you kept demanding to see the three of us and chased us around trying to pull our pants down."

Luo Xiu's face flushed crimson. "I've forgotten all about that! I don't remember!"

Lu Nianjiao suddenly winced again, her voice pained. "But you... you cruel brute. You really hurt me. Why did it have to be so big? Who could possibly handle that?"

Luo Xiu scratched his head and said apologetically, "I couldn't control myself earlier. My mind went blank, so I didn't notice..." He then murmured softly, "Besides, you've nearly scratched my back raw."

Lu Nianjiao swatted his head in annoyance. "Hurry up and help me get dressed."

"Oh."

"What are you looking at? Haven't you seen enough?"

"My eyes aren't blind. Why can't I look?"

"Then tell me, who has a better figure, me or Second Sister?"

"Second Sister."

"Little Mule, do you have a death wish? Second Sister is so fierce and always hits you, yet you still defend her?"

"Have mercy! I was wrong, I was wrong! Third Sister is the best! Second Sister is a witch!"

"I'll remember that. If you misbehave in the future, I'll tell Second Sister you called her a witch."

"Hey... you can't set me up like that."

"..."

After bickering for a while, Lu Nianjiao, now fully dressed, sat at the vanity to reapply her makeup. Luo Xiu stood behind her, staring at her stunningly beautiful face in the mirror, somewhat entranced. "Senior Sister, you're even more beautiful than when we were little."

Lu Nianjiao applied her lip gloss with gentle strokes. "So, where do I rank in your heart?"

"Second."

Hearing this, Lu Nianjiao's expression chilled. "Who's first, and who's third?"

Luo Xiu smiled. "Third place belongs to the you of the past. First place is reserved for the you of the future. That leaves the present you in second place."

"Not bad, Little Mule. You haven't been down the mountain long, but you've certainly learned how to talk."

"I'm just speaking the truth."

"Is that the truth, or are you just telling me what I want to hear?"

Luo Xiu was speechless. "..."

Lu Nianjiao suddenly asked, "What about Lin Xiyue?"

"Why are you suddenly asking about her?"

"Aren't you planning to marry her?"

Luo Xiu fell silent.

Lu Nianjiao continued, "I mean, truly be with her."

Luo Xiu shook his head. "Forget it."

Lu Nianjiao sighed. "It seems Second Sister didn't tell you the truth. Actually, among the three of us, Second Sister is the one who cares about you the most. She just has a sharp tongue but a soft heart. She might not have told you the real situation because she was afraid you wouldn't be able to accept it."

Luo Xiu frowned. "What real situation?"

Lu Nianjiao paused for a moment before saying, "Lin Xiyue has the Nine Yin Constitution, and you have the Nine Yang Constitution. In this world, she is the only one who can break your fated calamity."
