Lu Yuan's Magical Day

More importantly, the King Insects could continue evolving, and they could wear equipment too!

The other insects were also evolving like mad. In the future, the individual combat abilities of Insectoid Warriors would surpass those of humans.

"King, when are you going to dissect that Aberration Guai for us to eat? I really want to eat its flesh." King Insect Lu Xiao chimed in.

Lu Yuan said irritably, "What are you thinking? More than a thousand insects couldn't even finish dividing up a single drop of Guai blood, and you still want to eat its flesh? You'll stuff yourselves to death..."

"Study more and think less about fighting..."

Suddenly, his expression changed slightly.

A strange force shot up from his lower abdomen.

It turned out Girl was teasing him again. Her white-socked foot kept brushing against his calf beneath the dining table. The contact between their skin felt like an electric current, sending Lu Yuan's body temperature soaring as he frantically mobilized the power of the Source Fire to suppress it.

Girl's cheeks were slightly flushed as well. Perhaps she had used some strange God's Skill.

"King, are you feeling unwell?" Lu Da noticed that something was off with them.

While secretly enjoying himself, Lu Yuan hurriedly said, "No, no, it's nothing. Just a small problem with my blood circulation... My blood pressure is a little high."

Lu Da said, "How about this? I'll give you the Anti-Aberration Organ! It cures every illness!"

Another King Insect said, "I'll operate on you! My surgical skills have improved a lot lately!"

"King, don't be afraid of pain. This is for your own good. I can secrete anesthetic venom and knock you out. Shall we operate right now? Come on, everyone, hold him down!"

The three of them kept declaring their loyalty, turning Lu Yuan's face green. What was going on? Could someone come save me?

Girl was grinning happily.

The night was still long, and it was only eight in the evening. The King Insects couldn't stay at home forever. After washing the dishes, they ran off—it was obvious that after continuously devouring the Guai's power lately, they had been having a wonderful time.

Meanwhile, Lu Yuan was furious and planning to punish this playful girl. Seashell hurriedly put on a serious expression and suggested, "Why don't we visit Sky City? There should be a temple fair there, right? And it seems we have some proper business to attend to."

"Seems like... we really should go. We can also stop by the school." Lu Yuan nodded and snorted. "I'll let you off for today."

He began preparing New Year gifts in the warehouse next door.

Old Lu was poor and destitute now, with nothing particularly valuable to offer, so he could only make some ordinary little ornaments.

Seashell changed into another outfit: a small white T-shirt, short denim shorts that revealed her smooth long legs, and a pair of white canvas shoes.

Together with her straightened, shoulder-length hair, she looked exactly like a female high school student.

The moment she emerged from the washroom in that outfit, she knew she had made the right choice.

Lu Yuan's pupils dilated, and his eyes clearly revealed his amazement. It was said that when humans saw something they loved, their pupils would unconsciously dilate.

He felt that Seashell was much prettier than usual: large, watery eyes; a tall, slender figure; exquisitely curved lips; cheeks full of collagen; a standard oval face; and even a pair of... gold-rimmed glasses on her nose? What was that supposed to be?

Fine, she was beautiful normally too. A beautiful woman, he understood that. Having been baptized by the internet, what beautiful women had he not seen? Asia had its four great dark arts: sex reassignment, plastic surgery, makeup, and Photoshop. Who hadn't seen beautiful women before?

But now... had she surpassed the category of ordinary life?

Lu Yuan blinked. He felt as though he were looking at glowing, delicious food. His heartbeat rapidly intensified, and even his saliva began to secrete wildly.

"You've looked at me for a hundred years. What's left to look at?" This impossibly beautiful girl pursed her lips in a smile and took the initiative to link her arm through Lu Yuan's.

"Is something wrong with you, or is something wrong with me? What skill did you use?" Lu Yuan questioned his entire life even more deeply.

"I'm not telling you! Don't worry, it only works on you... I'll put on a jacket and wear a mask too. Is that okay?"

Lu Yuan cried out aggrievedly, "I'm not that conservative. A female high school student... Wait, you admitted you used some God's Skill on me! Oh, heavens, Lu Yuan, you've fallen for it! You're going to become a female high school student's slave!"

"Let's go, you big pervert!!" Girl dragged him toward the door with her arm hooked around his.

This year's New Year was indeed especially lively.

Green Field Square was holding a free buffet, with all kinds of seafood dishes in short supply. There were student performance groups, folk singing troupes, and more.

There was even the booming sound of gongs and drums.

The supermarkets sold Green Field Clothing, Source Fire Clothing, and even native clothing from the Mandala Empire.

Fine, Human 18 Civilization was indeed a very new civilization. There was nothing wrong with borrowing some of those past civilizations' cultures. Humans believed that their civilization had grown from the ruins of those civilizations.

After all these years, this year's Spring Festival was the most bustling one yet.

But Lu Yuan was suffering and enjoying himself at the same time, enduring the beautiful girl's Overwhelming Mountain and Sea assault.

This bewitching girl had obviously played herself into it. To her... being eaten was no loss, and not being eaten was no loss either.

That fragrant, soft body would occasionally press against him of its own accord, casually looping itself around Lu Yuan's arm.

Lu Yuan could clearly feel his elbow bump into something soft, leaving his thoughts in turmoil... A Level C powerhouse really was moving.

Just as Lu Yuan was enjoying himself, that mysterious sensation vanished.

When she spotted a rather cute child performing on the violin, the bewitching girl loudly dragged him over to see the "handsome little boy."

Holding hands was pretty wonderful too.

After watching, they naturally let go again.

When they saw Old Wolf and the Undying Giant Turtle duo performing a circus act, the two watched with great interest. Yet as they watched, their fingers somehow intertwined.

After it ended, they let go again.

Girl was very clever. Like eating ice cream, she would occasionally give him a bite, but just as he began to enjoy it, she would stop.

That old push-and-pull trick made Lu Yuan's mood rise and fall like waves on the ocean. As for what Old Wolf had performed, it was completely unimportant!

All he wanted now was a little physical contact.

"What's going on? Why is my happiness level so high? I'm an old lecher too. I shouldn't be falling for this push-and-pull trick..."

Only afterward did Lu Yuan realize that it was not merely because the other party had used certain "abilities." More importantly, his mentality had changed.

In the past, there had always been troublesome restrictions that made him hold himself back and unable to let loose. It was like the Magic Treasure, the Five-Colored Cloud Garment, from the Kingdom of Vermilion and Purple in Journey to the West. Once a girl put it on, it became a chastity garment—even touching it would prick your hand!

But now, that chastity garment had suddenly disappeared. The anticipation was infinitely magnified.

"Calm down, Lu Yuan, Lu Yuan. How can you fall this far? Have you forgotten the study plan you made before? Confucius said, 'I examine myself thrice daily.'"

"Don't be distracted by female beauty anymore. Instead of spending time shopping, I might as well study the glyph engravings. Come on, think about the Great Compendium of Gears. Women aren't that interesting."

His mind began to work.

"Sir, sir, shall I feed you some ice cream?"

"Okay." The moment Lu Yuan saw those sweet, syrupy eyes, a trace of secret delight rose in his heart, and he was once again distracted by female beauty.

"Sir, sir, will you feed me too?"

Seashell's attitude was extremely subtle. On one hand, she was indeed a little shy, so she was dragging things out here.

On the other hand, she found Lu Yuan's attitude amusing, so she simply started playing along...

Anyway, she had met Lu Yuan's Parents, and she had met Lu Yuan's younger sister too.

Everyone else already thought they were a model couple, so weren't they truly a model couple?

"Oh, so it's Captain Lu. I was wondering why you looked so familiar." Jin Dongliang was out strolling with his wife. As one of the oldest groups to have survived from the Mandala Empire until now, the couple looked like the ordinary middle-aged couples one could see everywhere on Earth.

By comparison, Lu Yuan and Seashell were completely young, vibrant, and brimming with fertility.

"Captain Jin, hello." Lu Yuan felt empty again, because Girl had obviously let go of him. As long as this old acquaintance did not leave, she would not press close to him again.

So the two sides began exchanging pleasantries and talking about boring things.

Lu Yuan's eyes suddenly sharpened. "Why does Madam Jin's stomach feel like it's nurturing life..."

"Sigh..." Jin Dongliang let out a sigh. "We took some medicine recently and had too much energy. We ended up getting pregnant by accident. We're both busy to death and had no plans to have children, so we can only send the embryo to Green Field School. We'll go in a few days, so it doesn't delay our work."

Lu Yuan spouted nonsense. "We don't reject Natural Person reproduction here either. Maybe your genes will produce a cultivation genius?"

"No, no. We've already raised children before. There's no need to raise them again."

After finally sending Jin Dongliang away and wanting to enjoy some time alone together, Guo Dafeng and his wife showed up.

"Commander Lu Da, when are you going to help me set up my field... It's been delayed for a year." Guo Dafeng was anxious. Having been suppressed by Jin Dongliang for so long, the flesh on his face trembled twice.

But Lu Yuan was absent-minded. "We'll talk after the New Year, Colonel Guo... You can't come collect debts during the New Year, can you?"

"Haha, true, true..."

After finally sending Guo Dafeng and his wife away, why... was there another group of children??

"No red envelopes, no peace!"

Lu Yuan was on the verge of a mental breakdown. What was going on? I'm clearly wearing a mask and sunglasses. Can't I have some time alone with her?

They gave the children some candy and escaped into Green Field School to secretly go on a date.

But they ran into a group of eager students and were easily caught.

As if history were repeating itself, the young people began shouting and gossiping, demanding that they "kiss" and "kiss."

That happened to suit Lu Yuan's current mood perfectly. So this "kiss" went further than the last one. It was not merely a kiss on the cheek—they directly entered a proper intimate relationship...

It absolutely... did not count as breaking his vows!
