More Profound Than Their Sect's Foundational Cultivation Method
Qi Yunshu was, after all, Nascent Soul Realm cultivator, and her thoughts flowed extremely quickly. In a short while, she had already figured out the ins and outs.
When Liu Yaoyao encountered the Evil Cultivator Golden Core Azure Moon Lake, she was rescued by Shiqing, who was by Young Master Lu's side. Through this encounter, she indirectly became acquainted with Young Master Lu.
Given Young Master Lu's tendency to become completely captivated by beautiful female cultivators, it seems Liu Yaoyao has managed to latch onto Young Master Lu coattails.
Qi Yunshu was actually quite pleasantly surprised.
After all, Liu Yaoyao grew up in the Golden Rainbow Sword Sect and had a strong sense of belonging to the sect.
He was thinking about how to elevate the Golden Rainbow Sword Sect's standing in Young Master Lu's eyes!
If Liu Yaoyao really manages to get on Young Master Lu's good side, it would be a tremendous boon for the sect!
A polite smile appeared on Liu Yaoyao's alluring oval face as she bowed to Qi Yunshu and said, "Greetings, Sect True Lord. Yaoyao is now your personal maid."
Qi Yunshu's eyes lit up even more.
Really!
And it was even better than he expected!
Liu Yaoyao is so fortunate to be able to become Young Master Lu's personal maid.
Given the affection between him and his wife, Young Master Lu will likely be more devoted to the Golden Rainbow Sword Sect in the future, won't he?
A warm smile immediately appeared on his face, and his tone became even more friendly than before. "I see. Yaoyao, you have such good fortune. You must cherish it and follow Young Master Lu closely from now on, so as not to waste this fortuitous opportunity."
Liu Yaoyao was taken aback. Although she had expected that her status would change after becoming the young master's personal maid, she had not expected that even the sect True Lord would treat her so politely.
Her charming face beamed with an even brighter smile as she curtsied and said, "Thank you for your guidance, True Lord. Please come in with me; the young master is waiting for you."
Qi Yunshu nodded and followed Liu Yaoyao, quickly entering the cave abode.
The sound of rain outside gradually grew muffled behind them, while the warm light and dryness inside the cave abode kept out the dampness.
On the stone walls on both sides of the corridor, those same warm-light lamps powered by Spirit Stones were still embedded, their soft, pale yellow light illuminating the path the two were walking on with a gentle and bright glow.
After passing through the corridor and arriving at the lobby, Qi Yunshu immediately saw Lu Yang leaning back in a chair.
Today, Lu Yang was wearing a loose, moon-white robe, without a belt, the robe hanging casually, and he held a thick book with a light gold cover in his hand.
He was quietly turning the pages of the book, his expression focused and composed.
As he turned the pages, faint golden Sword Dao patterns appeared and swirled in the air between the pages.
The patterns, sometimes bright and sometimes dim, each contained the sharpness of Metal Dao and the ferocity of Sword Dao. The interweaving of these patterns produced a faint humming sound of Sword Qi energy, yet they were firmly bound by some invisible force to the top three inches of the page, preventing them from spreading even slightly.
This peculiar scene made Qi Yunshu take another look.
With Qi Yunshu's cultivation at the Nascent Soul Realm, upon seeing the Sword Dao patterns, he felt that these patterns were exceptionally profound, containing the dual mysteries of the Metal Dao and the Dao of Sword Dao.
The profound truths it contained, even though they were only a tiny fragment of what was revealed, already caused a slight tremor in his heart, even though he was a Nascent Soul True Lord.
Qi Yunshu quickly lowered her head, not daring to look any longer.
A sense of shock washed over him.
This Cultivation Method... its profoundness probably far surpasses their sect's most treasured Cultivation Method, the Golden Rainbow Sword!
Heaven Grade Cultivation Method?
Young Master Lu had asked him for the "Golden Rainbow Sword Canon" before, but it turned out to be just for reference.
Indeed, given Young Master Lu's status and position, it's perfectly normal for him to possess a Heaven Grade Golden Sword cultivation Cultivation Method.
It's even possible that Young Master Lu doesn't even possess Cultivation Method above the Heaven Grade.
However, this level of Cultivation Method was naturally beyond his comprehension.
Even if it were just a glance, Qi Yunshu worried that Lu Yang would be dissatisfied.
He composed himself, straightened his posture, and cupped his hands, saying, "Young Master Lu, we have already made contact with the top sects of other major states. Now everything is ready, and we are prepared to simultaneously besiege the Nascent Soul experts of the Blood Devil Hall."
Upon hearing this, Lu Yang raised an eyebrow and slowly closed the "Golden Radiance Sword Canon" in his hand.
The pale golden Sword Dao patterns that floated above the pages of the book flashed by and disappeared into the air.
He looked up, a hint of surprise on his face. "You guys are pretty quick."
It's only been a little over ten days.
Starting from Qin Province, one must travel to various major prefectures in the Eastern Domain to contact the top sects in each region, explain the situation, and coordinate the timing of the operation... The amount of travel and negotiation involved is quite tedious.
To complete it in such a short time, one must have worked day and night without a moment's delay.
Qi Yunshu immediately said solemnly, "The matter of the Blood Devil Hall is of great importance. If the Evil Cultivators of the Blood Devil Hall escape, we will likely become sinners in the Eastern Domain. Naturally, we must act as soon as possible."
Lu Yang nodded slightly and smiled, "Alright, in that case, I should get going. Once I arrive at my destination, I'll contact Elder Su via the Sound Transmission Jade Token tablet, and she can coordinate the timing of our operation with you. How does that sound?"
"Junior Sister Su?" Qi Yunshu was taken aback for a moment, then a hint of joy flashed in her eyes.
Lu Yang's destination was the state where Zhou Mu, the Blood Devil Hall Master, was located. This state was situated in the more central part of the Eastern Domain, and there were no other Nascent Soul Cultivators from the Blood Devil Hall stationed there.
Qi Yunshu originally planned to send elders to set up contact points along the way and maintain contact by transmitting messages through sect tokens level by level.
Since Lu Yang could directly contact Su Jinxuan, their Sound Transmission Jade Token must have exceeded the scope of the Golden Rainbow Sword Sect's sect tokens.
Qi Yunshu immediately understood that Junior Sister Su probably had Sound Transmission Jade Token given to her by Young Master Lu.
What does this tell us?
This shows that Young Master Lu truly cares about Junior Sister Su!
Qi Yunshu quickly nodded and said, "No problem! Junior Sister Su will also be traveling with us, so she can act as the liaison!"
Lu Yang nodded slightly, then, as if remembering something, reminded them, "By the way, the Blood Devil Hall is a very dangerous place. Be careful of those four deputy palace masters; they might have other trump cards. Remember to send several Nascent Soul Realm cultivators to surround and kill them, and don't give them any chance to turn the tables."
Upon hearing this, Qi Yunshu's expression became more serious.
He recalled that Lu Yang had previously said that Zhou Mu was no ordinary person and that he should personally handle the situation.
It seems to be related to this matter as well.
What exactly is going on with this Blood Devil Hall?
Did this make Young Master Lu suspect that there was more to their story than met the eye?
However, Qi Yunshu had some suspicions to begin with.
After all, the Blood Devil Hall was originally a terrifying Evil Dao organization capable of creating Bloodthirst Tides. Even if it resurfaced after many years, it is still incomparable to ordinary top-tier forces.
Thinking this through, he nodded solemnly. "I understand. I will personally instruct each encirclement team to never underestimate the enemy."
Lu Yang nodded slightly and said softly, "Go ahead."
Qi Yunshu quickly bowed again, and then Liu Yaoyao saw him off from the cave abode.
Soon, Liu Yaoyao returned.
She approached Lu Yang behind with practiced ease, extending her long, slender, and fair hands to gently place on his shoulders. With a touch of gentle pressure, she began to skillfully massage his shoulders.
Since becoming Lu Yang's personal maid, Jiang Shiqing has had more time to complete the tasks assigned by Lu Yang.
Therefore, Jiang Shiqing spent a lot of time cultivating and comprehending the "True Explanation of the Azure Waves" and its Law Technique during the day, and spent much less time with Lu Yang. Liu Yaoyao naturally took over the task of serving her personally.
Originally, Liu Yaoyao wanted to cling tightly to Lu Yang's coattails, so she naturally had a strong sense of initiative.
Adding tea and water, grinding ink and laying out paper, massaging shoulders and necks... In just over ten days, she had become quite adept and natural at it.
Lu Yang could enjoy it, so naturally he wouldn't refuse.
After all, she was his personal maid, and it was only natural for him to be served by his personal maid.
Liu Yaoyao rubbed her shoulders, her voice slightly languid and hoarse, and asked curiously, "Young Master, what's the situation with the Blood Devil Hall?"
Lu Yang lowered his head and continued to flip through the "Golden Radiance Sword Canon," his gaze returning to the mysterious golden sword patterns.
He casually replied, "Do you remember the Golden Core Evil Cultivator you and Shiqing captured at Azure Moon Lake last time? The force behind that Evil Cultivator was the Blood Devil Hall."
Upon hearing about the Evil Cultivator's situation, Liu Yaoyao's fingers, which were resting on Lu Yang's shoulder, paused slightly.
A hint of lingering fear flashed in her eyes, then she smiled and said, "Thanks to Sister Shiqing, otherwise, I probably would have died there last time. So the power behind that Evil Cultivator is called the Blood Devil Hall. It seems that the Blood Devil Hall is indeed extraordinary."
Lu Yang turned a page of the book, and the pale golden sword pattern flashed and disappeared in the air.
His tone remained calm and casual. "It's indeed extraordinary; the Blood Devil Hall is connected to other planes."
Upon hearing this, Liu Yaoyao's pupils suddenly contracted, and her hands stopped moving completely.
A look of shock appeared on her alluring face, and her voice rose slightly. "Other dimensions?!"
She had naturally also seen in some ancient books in the sect's library that there were different planes beyond the Canglan Realm, such as the Spirit Realm and the Immortal Realm.
But unexpectedly, the Blood Devil Hall is actually connected to information about this dimension!
Lu Yang nodded, his tone still calm. "Yes, but you don't need to worry. The clan behind the Blood Devil Hall probably won't be able to enter the Canglan Realm directly."
Hearing this, Liu Yaoyao finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Then, as if remembering something, she looked at Lu Yang with admiration in her eyes. "With you here, young master, even if races from other planes really come, Yaoyao won't worry."
Over the past ten days, Liu Yaoyao, following Jiang Shiqing, has come to fully appreciate Lu Yang's unfathomable depth and power.
Among his servants were a large number of the Nascent Soul Realm cultivators!
Normal Nascent Soul Realm cultivators are top-tier powerhouses in the entire Eastern Domain, yet this young master is merely a servant!
One can only imagine how terrifying the power behind the young master is!
Moreover, the Cultivation Method that the young master casually flips through on a daily basis are all Heaven Grade Supreme Quality.
She even heard Shiqing say that the young master had given her a Heaven Grade Supreme Quality dual cultivation Secret Method and told her to cultivate it diligently.
As for the sounds coming from that bedroom every night... just listening to them made her legs go weak.
As a disciple of the External Affairs Hall, she had spent some time mingling outside and had seen all sorts of people, but she had never heard of anyone possessing such terrifying strength in dual cultivation.
No wonder Shiqing smiled so meaningfully back then, only telling her to "just behave normally."
Who could stand this?
However, up to this point, the young master has not mentioned having her serve him in bed.
This made Liu Yaoyao feel a little anxious and uncertain.
I wonder if the young master doesn't fancy me?
Just as Liu Yaoyao was lost in thought, Lu Yang had already closed the "Golden Radiance Sword Canon" in his hand and put it into his Storage Ring.
Lu Yang said, "Alright, go and call Shiqing, let's go together."
Liu Yaoyao quickly snapped out of her daze and nodded, "Yes, young master!"
She walked quickly toward Jiang Shiqing's training room, her red skirt swaying slightly in the corridor lights.
Lu Yang, on the other hand, took out his Sound Transmission Jade Token, intending to ask Senior Sister Mu Nanyue if they wanted to go out for a stroll together.
