This Was Worth It

"What are you trying to do?!"

Chu Feng was startled. Her gaze made him feel like prey.

"I need you to condense a strand of Extreme Yang Power for me. I wish to study it."

Chu Feng looked at Luohu and saw the teasing smile at the corner of her lips. He subconsciously swallowed, his gaze sweeping over her attire.

Her black Daoist robe fluttered gently in the wind, accentuating her slender figure. A blood-red hairpin adorned her head, lending her cold beauty a dangerous, seductive air.

Her skin was like flawless snow, her features as exquisite as sculpture. An overbearing aura that brooked no offense radiated from between her brows.

"What are you looking at?" Luohu frowned, displeased.

"Senior, I mean... I've taken a liking to you." Chu Feng gave an awkward smile.

"You little bastard, are you courting death?"

Luohu was furious. Her aura spread out, pressing down on Chu Feng with crushing force.

She had existed for countless epochs. Who had ever dared disrespect her? How could she not be angered by Chu Feng's teasing?

The moment Chu Feng felt her aura, he suddenly came to his senses and cursed himself inwardly.

What the hell did I just do?

What the hell did this stupid mouth say?

Tease Luohu?

Even if she's the female version, she's still a Hunyuan Golden Immortal. I'm only a Grand Unity Golden Immortal—less than an ant in her eyes.

However, Chu Feng remained calm. He still held a Hunyuan Golden Immortal Experience Card. At worst, he could fight Luohu head-on.

Unfortunately, he only had one Experience Card. Unless he was in real danger, Chu Feng would not use it lightly.

With that in mind, Chu Feng temporarily admitted defeat. "No, no, no, Senior, you misunderstand. I was merely captivated by your appearance. It's just a strand of Extreme Yang Power, right? I'll condense one for you."

As he spoke, Chu Feng condensed a strand of Extreme Yang energy at his fingertips and sent it before Luohu.

Extreme Yang Power was nothing to him. He could condense it at will.

"Very good."

Seeing that Chu Feng knew what was good for him, Luohu withdrew her aura and accepted the Extreme Yang energy.

Luohu stared at Chu Feng with a trace of scrutiny. "Why did you tease me just now? Aren't you afraid of death?"

Chu Feng liked telling little lies. He scratched his head and put on an innocent expression. "I didn't tease you. My blood and qi surged just now—I truly didn't mean it. Believe me!"

"What surged?" Luohu raised a brow.

Chu Feng explained with a straight face, "It's an instinctive reaction where a male living being sees a beautiful female, and the yang energy in his body suddenly surges beyond his control."

Luohu frowned, thinking, He is the first male living being in the primordial world. He is different from me, so perhaps he truly did not mean it.

With that thought, Luohu nodded. "So that's how it is. But if you surge at me again, I'll throw you into a pill furnace and use you as a medicinal ingredient."

Hearing that, Chu Feng immediately waved his hands. "Let's not. My yang energy may be strong, but it hasn't reached the point where it can refine pills."

As soon as he finished speaking, he found a stone bed in the place of seclusion, lay down, and went to sleep. He muttered, "Go study the Extreme Yang energy. I'll catch up on some sleep first. Call me if you need anything."

Luohu looked down at him, the corner of her mouth twitching. "You really do sleep without a care in the world."

With his eyes closed, Chu Feng sniffed. A faint fragrance lingered on the stone bed—it belonged to Luohu.

"Isn't it because you smell so good..."

Chu Feng stopped halfway through the sentence, realizing something was wrong, and swallowed the rest of his words.

Luohu fell silent for three seconds, then flashed before him and kicked his leg. "Go sleep farther away!"

Chu Feng sprang to his feet. "Cheapskate. You aren't sleeping right now anyway, so what's wrong with me lying down for a while?"

"Forget it."

Luohu waved a hand, no longer bothering with him, and began studying the Extreme Yang energy.

Three years later.

Luohu withdrew her aura and slowly opened her eyes.

Chu Feng happened to wake up as well. He leaned over and asked, "How did your research go? Did you discover anything new?"

"No." Luohu shook her head.

"What? Then wasn't that all for nothing?" Chu Feng was a little dumbfounded.

Luohu stood and flicked her black robe, sweeping Chu Feng before her. "I plan to refine a magic treasure and gather some materials."

Chu Feng yawned. "Then go refine it. Why do you have to drag me along?"

"It isn't safe for you to stay here alone."

Chu Feng: ...

He thought about it. Luohu was not wrong. He was merely a Grand Unity Golden Immortal; in this era, he was not even cannon fodder.

Although Luohu herself was the greatest danger, she currently had no intention of killing him.

Under such circumstances, following Luohu was undoubtedly safer.

Not long after the two left, a little demon suddenly leaped out, baring its fangs and brandishing its claws as it pounced at them.

Luohu could not even be bothered to raise her eyes. With a casual wave, she sent out a flash of fire and instantly killed it.

Chu Feng crouched down to inspect the scorched patch on the ground, then looked up and sighed. "That was badass plus. You have to protect me."

Luohu's delicate brows furrowed slightly, and her lips curled upward. "Don't talk."

"Oh."

Chu Feng answered, then asked, "Where are we going to find materials?"

"First, we'll go to the Northern Frontier Cold Pond," Luohu said softly.

"Cold Pond?"

Chu Feng subconsciously shrank his neck. The primordial world was extremely dangerous. This cold pond might easily freeze a Grand Unity Golden Immortal to death.

Luohu seemed to sense his thoughts and slowly said, "With me here, I will keep you safe."

Chu Feng hurried to her side and grabbed her arm, taking the opportunity to cop a feel. "Alright, alright. You're beautiful, so I believe you."

"Say no more. Hold on tight and follow me to gather materials."

Luohu shot him an annoyed look and cut him off. Seeing Chu Feng grasping her, there was a warning in her eyes.

Chu Feng wrapped an arm around her waist and secretly praised her. Soft, tender, fragrant. This was worth it.

He was practically flying with joy. He had gotten a Hellish Start, met Luohu, and then taken advantage of Luohu.

In all the primordial world novels, how many people could pull that off?

From the primordial world novels Chu Feng had read, Luohu was usually portrayed as a villain, or as a tool meant to temper the protagonist.

Yet when it was his turn to transmigrate, he encountered a female Luohu—and a beautiful girl at that. What a huge profit.

As long as you had enough nerve, Luohu could be your concubine!

Chu Feng thought, There's already a female Luohu. Could Hongjun also be a woman? If I took Hongjun into my harem, then...

Chu Feng quickly dismissed the idea. Hongjun would become the future Dao Ancestor and spokesperson for the Heavenly Dao. Her strength was formidable.

In some primordial world novels, Hongjun was even stronger than the Heavenly Dao. He still wanted to live a few more years.

While Chu Feng was lost in wild thoughts, Luohu had already brought him to the Northern Frontier.

"Brrr... It's so cold."

Chu Feng shuddered and sucked in a breath of cold air.

Luohu's expression did not change. As a Hunyuan Golden Immortal, she did not fear the cold at all.

Chu Feng rubbed his arms and kept muttering, "What kind of godforsaken place is this? It's fucking freezing."

Luohu rolled her eyes at his words. "You have Extreme Yang Power in your body. How can you still feel cold?"

Chu Feng's eyes darted about, and he grinned. "How could my cultivation compare to yours?"

Luohu froze for a moment, then suddenly reached out and lightly tapped his forehead.

Immediately afterward, a warm current flowed into Chu Feng's body...

"Come. Follow me and collect the materials."

Luohu grabbed Chu Feng and swiftly moved through the Northern Frontier...
