I'm Treating Him Too

The fastest update to Seeking the Dao in the Mortal World!

"Qin Yi..." Li Qingjun emerged from the painting world, her hand already closing the box again, her expression horrified. "This thing is terrifying, if people find out..."

"Yes, so it can't be known."

Ju Yunxiu asked curiously, "What's wrong? Why are you being so mysterious?"

Li Qingjun hesitated and said, "I don't know how this thing will affect Daoist cultivators, but if we're talking about Martial Cultivation, it might halve my cultivation time."

This is a fragment the size of a billiard ball obtained from Saint Dragon Peak. It's much larger than the original, fingernail-sized fragment Qin Yi had; the original one is no longer up to par. Qin Yi hasn't had time to use it for cultivation yet, but he tested it when he got it. It clearly greatly enhances the auxiliary abilities for Martial Cultivation in the Bone Forging Stage, and Qin Yi strongly suspects it will still be very useful at the next level.

Not to mention Li Qingjun's Third Level Realm, it's entirely possible for her time to be halved, and perhaps even more.

Ju Yunxiu listened in a daze, having never heard of such a thing in his eighteen years of life.

Half the cultivation time... He said it casually, but this was seizing the power of heaven and earth. If word got out, who knows how many people would be Blood Rain by it!

No wonder Qin Yi longed for such a thing... and no wonder his master was lured out of his painting world by it.

Qin Yi said, "Right now, the fragments are only small pieces, and for the time being, I've only discovered their benefits to Martial Cultivation. If we find larger ones, they will definitely be beneficial to the Dao of Enlightenment, which is why Ye Bieqing keeps thinking about them, even... um."

Knowing the location of this treasure, which is indicated by the painting world, one should naturally go and retrieve it as soon as possible; otherwise, it would be a real shame if someone else got there first. Ju Yunxiu was quite satisfied with Qin Yi's clear-headedness. Knowing the location of the treasure, he still recognized his own limitations and did not rush to his death, but waited several years until their reunion before mentioning it.

She didn't deceive him either, leaving the painting in his hands so he could take it with him and travel the Cloud Wandering. This seems simple, but in reality, very few people in the world can do it. Many people feel secure only if they keep such a significant secret to themselves.

Just based on this trust and integrity, she knew she hadn't misjudged him.

Ju Yunxiu's voice grew even gentler as she lightly stroked his waist, which had been pinched until it turned blue. "Does it hurt?"

"Uh, it's alright, it's alright."

Hearing "It's alright," Ju Yunxiu almost wanted to twist it again, but she forcibly restrained her restless fingers and said softly, "You just woke up, and your body is still weak. Don't think about so much, just rest well. We'll make arrangements after you've fully recovered."

Qin Yi is indeed still unable to move. His whole body is weak and he has no strength at all, as if he has just recovered from a serious illness. This is a sequela of severe overexertion and he needs to rest well.

As a result, the moment Qin Yi opened his eyes, he was plunged into a hellish scene, and he swallowed his tears.

Ju Yunxiu Li Qingjun exchanged a glance, feeling a little embarrassed. Ju Yunxiu then said, "You should focus on recovering from your injuries. I'll go to the Immortal Palace's headquarters and reach a consensus with Mo Wuzi. In case someone tries to cause trouble because of you and the demon, the Immortal Palace will be prepared."

Qin Yi was taken aback. "They haven't left yet?"

"No, once you entered the Blood Nether Realm, how could they just leave without a word?" Ju Yunxiu laughed. "You brought great honor to the Immortal Palace in this competition; now you're everyone's darling."

Qin Yi said shamelessly, "I don't want to be their precious darling, I want to be their Senior Sister."

"I'll pinch you until you're covered in bumps!" Ju Yunxiu, feeling embarrassed by Li Qingjun's sidelong glance, angrily threw down a sentence and rode away on a cloud.

Only Li Qingjun and Qing Cha, who was hiding in the corner and had no presence, remained in the room.

Qing Cha watched as Li Qingjun lay down next to Qin Yi and hugged her tightly, saying, "If she can secretly hug you, so can I!"

Qin Yi was speechless.

Qing Cha scratched his head.

These adults are actually quite childish too...

That's right, this "Elder Sister Qing Jun" is only in her early twenties, right? Qing Cha costs over a hundred!

Qing Cha looked at Li Qingjun's oval face, then touched her own round face.

Time has smoothed out the rough edges...

Qing Cha sighed, put her hands behind her back, and walked step by step to the back of the house. She accidentally got her hand on the threshold and fell face-first into the mud with a cry of "Ouch!"

Qing Cha got up with a long face, sniffled, and squatted outside to poke at the fish.

Li Qingjun chuckled, "That little girl is so fun."

Qin Yi turned slightly and hugged her, whispering in her ear, "She's nowhere near as fun as you..."

"Pah. That's because she's not ready to play yet." Li Qingjun blushed and said, "Go be your Senior Sister's precious darling, and don't touch me."

"You were the one who touched me..."

"Aren't you proud of yourself, with so many people fighting over you?"

"Uh..." Qin Yi paused awkwardly for a moment, then said in a low voice, "Are you angry with me?"

"Sheng." Li Qingjun said with a straight face, then sighed slightly, "Actually, it wasn't a big deal. If you had stayed in Southern Li and married me, I wouldn't have forbade you to take a concubine. If you had taken a fancy to Minghe, I could have spoken to her on your behalf. I would have even given you all my maids... But that's not the same... Now I feel so guilty. I always feel that everyone around you is better than me. I can't find my place anymore."

"Who said others are better than you?" Qin Yi said, "Does this also depend on cultivation level? You are the one and only Qing Jun, what's the point of comparing yourself to others..."

Li Qingjun smiled slightly, "I know, actually, the one they all envy the most is me, even though I'm just a mortal."

The two kissed without realizing it, and Qin Yi's hands began to wander.

Li Qingjun pressed his hand down and scolded, "You're so weak you can't even get up, yet you still have this kind of leisure time. You've really gone bad."

Qin Yi awkwardly lowered his hand.

It's not like he's getting lustful at a time like this. Normal people would naturally get aroused while kissing.

Li Qingjun suddenly asked, "Cheng Cheng said you know dual cultivation techniques?"

Qin Yi was a little embarrassed. "I know a little..."

"Will this be effective for your type of recovery?"

Qin Yi glanced at Qing Cha, who had already left, and whispered, "That's more effective than just lying there like this..."

Li Qingjun looked around suspiciously, then suddenly gritted her teeth. "If she can sneakily hug you, why can't I steal a bite! Let her play the senior and send me to the guest room."

"Hey, wait, wait a minute... I can't move..."

"What are you moving for? Use your energy!"

"Hiss..."

Suddenly, Qing Cha outside heard a strange sound coming from inside the house, and her big eyes widened immediately.

What is this and what is this...?

Master just left, and this Elder Sister is already... so decisive and sharp! Is this the demeanor of a great general?

Ju Yunxiu met Mo Wuzi over there.

"There might be rumors that Qin Yi is in love with a demon. Should we be on the safe side?" Mo Wuzi looked at Ju Yunxiu strangely. "What's there to be on the safe side about? If Qin Yi is in love with a demon, then you're the one who should smash his head in. What business is it of anyone else's?"

Ju Yunxiu retorted angrily, "You know that's not what I meant. To confuse humans with demons and to reverse right and wrong is something I must apologize to the world for."

"What's the big deal? The day my mechanical automaton develops a spirit, that will be my beloved. Wouldn't that count as falling in love with a demon?" Mo Wuzi scoffed. "We are the Ten Thousand Dao Immortal Palace. What strange and unusual people don't we have? If we only listen to those Righteous Path, will we ever have a normal life?"

Ju Yunxiu smiled slightly, "That's fine then, just laying the groundwork beforehand."

"Understood, I'll let them know later." Mo Wuzi said, "Your disciple is here, won't you see him?"

"I will not see you for now. I have no time to teach disciples, and it would be too shameful to meet you in the name of master and disciple. When I am tired of Cloud Wandering, I will return to the celestial palace and then properly teach my disciples and help them to flourish."

Mo Wuzi smiled and said, "You'll eventually grow weary and realize the dangers of the world; it's not for you."

Ju Yunxiu smiled and said, "I haven't grasped the Dao yet; I still need time."

Mo Wuzi nodded. "Alright, then we'll leave too."

After a swift and simple exchange of opinions, Ju Yunxiu turned and left without lingering.

Qing Cha saw the approaching streak of light on the horizon, and her eyes were filled with terror.

Why did Master come back so quickly?

It's over...

"Li Qingjun! What are you doing!"

Seabirds took flight in fright, sea fish fled far away, waves surged and billowed, the wind and clouds changed color, and the sun and moon lost their light.

Li Qingjun pulled the blanket over herself, then gritted her teeth and said, "Would you believe me if I said I was also undergoing treatment?"
