บท 16: Plan for Journey

Yu Ruyan currently stared at the distant forest with an unfocused gaze. She broke through twice and became a tenth-grade Martial Saint, in other words, Peak Grade Martial Saint. She had a hand on her stomach. A natural smiled pasted on her face. She kept reminiscing about last night and every time Shen expressed his love.

Shen came to the roof with a tray on his hand, noticing Ruyan's unfocused look, he kept the tray on the table slowly and hugged her from behind. The sudden touch caused Ruyan to feel surprised but she didn't move a little bit.

"Shen..." she knew only Shen would dare to do something like this with her!

"What are you thinking about?" Shen slowly asked as he placed his right hand on hers.

"Nothing..." Ruyan only let out a soft word in reply. Shen didn't think much about it and princess carried her. He sat on a chair and let Ruyan rest on his lap. Ruyan's face heated up but she felt a strange calm sensation.

"Ok, I apologize. I pretty much acted like an insatiable beast, especially when it was your first time. Here, I prepared some soup as an apology. I know it can't be even counted as an apology but I couldn't find anything better..." She wanted to rest on his shoulder but started to become more embarrassed as he started speaking.

Ruyan at first didn't want to drink anything, but now she wanted to avoid any conversation with Shen. So, she sipped on the soup a little, but the taste was completely unexpected to her. It was so heavenly that she couldn't stop!

Shen smiled as he noticed her enjoying the bowl of soup. Although she drank at fast speed it was still extremely beautiful. A beauty like Yu Ruyan, no matter what they did, they looked extremely enchanting.

Ruyan, who already finished the bowl, wanted more! But the problem is, she couldn't ask more as it was too embarrassing, "Umm, Shen... Do you--"

"Ah, you want more? Here!" as if Shen had already predicted the outcome, he took out a big bowl from his 'interspatial ring'.

This was his version of All-Aspect Nourishment Soup. Inside the Absolute Realm, he used many turtles and experimented with them. After around thirty versions, did he stop as he felt they tasted somewhat 'doable'. If not for that he would even feel embarrassed to take them out for her.

Ruyan just embarrassingly smiled and continued drinking more. Soon, she noticed the wonder of All-Aspect Nourishment Soup. All the fatigue from last night started to disappear and she even started feeling more energetic.

Yu Ruyan leaned on Shen, she finally finished the big bowl of soup. She let out a satisfied sigh, as she closed her eyes. She never tasted something so tasty, just this soup alone made her feel satisfied!

"Ruyan, I'm planning to leave Hundred Miles City within a week." Shen suddenly said.

It didn't come with surprise to Ruyan as she already expected this outcome when she learned Shen broke through to Xiantian Realm. Besides a cultivator cannot reach the peak by staying in the same place forever. They need adventure and fortuitous encounter.

"Mmm, I see. Last night... I breakthrough twice and I was thinking of entering seclusion to solidify my cultivation."

Shen felt a little sad as they will have to part their ways not long after they got together. Later they both parted their ways with a deep kiss. Shen, although unwilling had to leave. But not before that one kiss turning to three. In the end, Ruyan had to push him off as she thought it was going out of control.

Night Fragrance Court

"Brother Shen, did you finally remember about this poor girl. *sniff sniff*" Wenren Wugou complained as she faked crying. Shen used to meet up with them every now and then, but these last two to three month, he only visited them once.

Although, Wugou tried to act like a woman thrown away by her lover. Shen could only see a demoness who's trying to seduce another man. Even her simple act, made her look like a man-eater. From her body to personality, every trait indicated that she was a man-eater.

Wenren Wushuang on the other hand just swang her sword and didn't even bother to look at Shen. He could only helpless sigh.

"Fine, since no one wants me, I will just go wherever I was planning to... Who knows when I return to Hundred Miles City again! I feel sad, just when I come to take my girls but...but they decided to ignore me. Truly a sad life." Shen said the last part a little louder making sure both girls heard him.

At once, Shen felt danger and moved away from his spot as fast as possible!

"Pak!"

A sword went through space where his head was just a while ago. And it directly half buried itself on the door of the room. Shen still felt the lingering fear while looking at the sword. If he was just a little slow, he didn't know whether he would live or not.

"Do you want to-" before Shen could complete, his lips were tightly shut by another pair of lips.

"Hubby, you promised to marry both me and my sister." Wenren Wugou's soft voice that contained her feminine charm entered his ears.

Shen's eyes twitched as he heard her, 'The f**k. First, you threaten me and then tell me to marry you?'

"Unfair..." Wenren Wushuang muttered as she glanced at them. She was a little jealous of her sister who would openly show her love for Shen, unlike her.

-----------------

As Shen was finally done with meeting the Wenren sisters, he went searching for Shi Qingzhuang and Mingyue Gelou. On the way, he met with some Young Masters of Hundred Miles City.

Rather than Young Masters of Hundred Miles City, people prefer to call them chickens of Hundred Miles City. Normally, they would be arrogant but because of certain someone, they couldn't even act haughty. Every time they were caught doing some suspicious activity they were beaten badly.

If anyone in this generation could be called Young Master of Hundred Miles City that would be only Shen.

"Yo, 'Young Masters', how have you been all doing?"

The group with Situ Bufan froze as soon as they saw Shen, "Hahaha, Young Master Shen, it's rare seeing you these days."

"Yeah, just some breakthrough and cultivation. You know, thing happens when you are too talented. *sigh* Here I didn't want to breakthrough so soon." Shen had a regretful expression on his face.

Situ Bufan understood what he meant by breakthrough but the group didn't. Extreme fear started taking over his body. The group only cursed him when they heard him saying that he didn't want to break through so soon.

"Anyway, See you later, I'm searching for my beauties." Shen waved at them as he noticed an unusually large crowd near the Arena of Hundred Miles City.

There he saw Shi Qingzhuang and Mingyue Gelou, fighting against each other. It seems they were almost at the climax at their match.

"Are they really the younger generation?"

"Monsters, they are genius within genius!"

"Younger generation shall surpass the old one."

"Are they even Houtian cultivator? Are you sure they are not Xiantian??..."

Many people were discussing fervently about both Shi Qingzhuang and Mingyue Gelou. Shen unintentionally smiled listening to their heated discussion. He was proud of both of them, they both were his woman.

Suddenly he noticed Yu He and Feng Wuxi with Lingshuang. Naturally, they also spotted him. Shen told them about his plan for the journey, both Yu He and Feng Wuxi seemed like they already expected him to go out of Hundred Miles City. Lingshuang, on the other hand, wasn't so easy.

She refused to talk to him and didn't want to go with him either. In the end, when Shen whispered a few words on her ear, which caused her face to turn bright red. Like a cat whose tail has been stepped, she frantically ran away.

Last night when Shen and Ruyan were completely engrossed themselves with each other, Lingshuang saw them doing the act through the window. At first, she wanted to ignore them, but no matter what she did, she couldn't remove the image as if it was burned in her memory.

In the end, she saw the couple doing it for the whole thirteen rounds. She was there for the whole time not even closing her eyes for a few moments. Shen wouldn't have noticed her either if not for the fishy smell near the window.
