Dual Cultivation God Returns

Chapter 249 Are we finally...?

As Wu Long expected, once the rain passed the smell of blood alerted people to the fact that the small restaurant had something happen in it. However, the more open scene of a street full of corpses, on the other hand, was not noticed as there was not even a trace of what happened there not long after Wu Long and Butler Bang left.

He was not surprised, however, since the party involved could make almost anything and anyone disappear in this country.

There was nothing that traced the restaurant incident to him, so no one bothered him, even though he expected the 'gardeners' of this country to make things difficult for him. However, when he thought about it, it indeed would have been a futile effort as the Empress could end that trouble without lifting a finger. The three Ministers do not know what they talked about, thus having no clue as to what relationship they had. The only thing they know is that Wu Long was allowed to leave with Nie Changsheng and the Blade Empress did not pursue any responsibility from him.

It was taking quite a long time but Wu Long was not worried since the delay was likely caused by the interrogation of the man he gifted to the Empress, as he was sure she was very interested in what he had to say.

Though not the same way as Soul Cultivators, Dao Cultivators had a method of extracting information of their own. They did it by talking people into telling them what they wanted. It did not always work, and not on everyone, but their persuasiveness could not be underestimated. Coupled with some more robust methods, he expected that Nie Xiwang would have no problem cracking the mental defenses of that man and getting him to tell her whatever he knew.

In the meantime, he had the time to recuperate both from the Heavenly Punishment and the injuries sustained from unleashing Sword Intent of a higher order than he could normally handle.

On the third day after he demonstrated the Sword Intent to Luo Mingyu he managed to mostly recover. The severity of his injuries was similar if not higher than what Ye Ling inflicted on herself on that day of first snow. But his past and especially recent achievements in Body Tempering allowed him to endure it much easier than her, as well as recuperate a lot faster.

After that, he demonstrated Spear Intent, Saber Intent, Pole Axe Intent, as well as many others to Luo Mingyu whose eyes shone with the light of new comprehension and enlightenment. Under Ye Ling's insistence, he did not go over the limits of what he could currently display, but it was not even necessary since the initial demonstration of Sword Intent he gave her was enough for her to grasp the concept with which she could perceive other kinds of intents.

"Ziyan, you might sit closer with Mingyu for this one"

He smiled at Hua Ziyan who was sitting with the others. Though not as crucial as for Luo Mingyu, the others also benefited from experiencing these demonstrations so they always eagerly participated. Even Cao Mei who rarely appeared in Wu Long's presence lately joined with her mother since it was just that rewarding of an experience for any cultivator.

Hua Ziyan slightly widened her eyes but nodded and came closer to sit with Luo Mingyu as he stood not far before them.

What followed next was the feeling of an oppressive palm of a giant pressing on them from above, their Niwan Palace feeling pressed down as if someone was trying to crush their soul by squashing it.

The area appearing slightly discolored was what followed every Intent Wu Long displayed, and it was common across cultivators. Though the severity depended on the level of comprehension of the Intent.

Wu Long's palms moved in graceful motions with slight distortions appearing around them as if he was pushing an invisible matter in waves.

Then the intent changed and a sensation of being about to be blown into bits by a powerful oppressive force appeared instead as his palms bowled into fists one finger at a time and the gentle waves of distortions earlier turned into tyrannical currents that swirled around his fists when he moved.

Hua Ziyan looked on with rapt attention as she was rapidly progressing in her comprehension of fist and palm techniques.

Unlike what he used in combat, the way he was demonstrating intent now was very purposeful. Though he could not exactly teach, given a good enough perception and comprehension one would be able to learn a lot from just experiencing it.

Hua Ziyan's talent was already high, and she was constantly receiving guidance from Wu Long with Luo Mingyu's help so her skill was progressing by leaps and bounds, outclassing anyone in her realm in this small world already, and approaching people in higher realms.

He then called Shen Min when he took out chakrams, but she was still in her sheltered state, seemingly having trouble, as she lost control after the last scare of possibly losing Wu Long.

He still proceeded with the demonstration, but for her, it was less efficient due to her current circumstances. He finally decided that she needed some help while shaking his head with a smile.

In the evening, Wu Long arrived in front of Shen Min's room, and after a light knock she opened it and a surprised but delighted expression appeared on her beautiful face.

"Wu Long! Hehe, come in, come in"

She said with a smile like a ray of sunshine, pure and innocent. He smiled and entered the room as she closed the door and led him to sit on the sofa, taking a seat beside him with a delightful smile to be beside him.

"Are you here to talk about the Chakram Intent?"

"Not exactly"

He smiled at her innocent question and she slightly tilted her head as she pondered what he wanted to talk about. As he looked deep into her brown eyes with a tender look, his eyes flashed with profound patterns, this time changing slightly as the patterns intersected and turned.

'Heh, as I thought'

He chuckled inwardly as he saw that her real consciousness fell into a slumber, which was why she did not break out of her protective shell when she learned he was okay. His first thought was to wake her up using 'danger' stimuli as he had done in the past, and then, a slightly mischievous light shone in his eyes as he thought of another way to do it, a much more fun way.

"Min'er"

He gently called as he leaned in and Shen Min's cheeks turned slightly rosy as she looked at him with her clear innocent eyes that widened.

'Are we... are we finally going to...'

She thought as this was the first time he initiated closeness to her 'as far as she could remember', and her heart beat faster as she gulped, looking at his lips that were approaching her.
