Fire…. Water…. Wind…. Lightning….
Feeling his headache from just thinking about these four things since that was all he seemed to be capable of thinking about right now, Jian Shen groaned a little as he opened his eyes and stopped focussing on the twenty minor dao rings inside upper dantian.
As for those around his body, they had naturally disappeared when he stopped trying to comprehend them and wasn't using them either.
Shaking his head and ignoring the various eyes filled with myriad emotions being directed towards him, Jian Shen stood up and lifted Tian Xiaxue who was on his lap at the same time.
"Oh my, are you that eager to pound me?"
Not even bothering to explain, Jian Shen who knew that it was impossible to get rid of her put her on his shoulder and began walking away from the table showing that he was no longer going to continue Dao Gambling.
"You're not going to play anymore? I don't know what trick you are using, but why stop when you are capable of winning the jackpot every time?"
Shaking his head, Jian Shen said, "Even now I'm having doubts regarding whether fire feels cold or hot. Therefore, I'd rather not try to use the same trick again."
Having already taken a huge risk when he let the dao laws influence each other, Jian Shen was now sure that if he tried to continue winning the jackpot and used the same trick to add more minor dao rings, it would become even harder for him to properly comprehend them.
In fact, even Jian Shen wouldn't be surprised if he ended up losing his way and all of his dao rings would end up being disintegrated.
Thus, all Jian Shen had planned for now was to enter closed-door seclusion and digest all of the dao he had barely comprehended until the City of Beginnings opened.
This way, Jian Shen wouldn't have to worry about having any troubles with any of those daos in the future. At the same time, he'd now have a foundation he could build on after entering the City of Beginnings.
'Isn't fire something that's cold?'
Hastily getting rid of these thoughts which popped up inside his head every now and then even after he split the four daos into different rings, Jian Shen didn't dare look inside his Upper Dantian in fear of seeing the dao rings being corrupted by other daos and then change in colour.
Instead, he chose to pick up his speed and quickly exited the casino under a pair of jealous and wrath filled eyes.
"Fufufufufufu, are you really so eager to have sex with me?"
Not minding the fact that she was being carried like a burden, Xiaxue chose to slither like a snake after she easily made Jian Shen's hand lose grip of her.
Travelling towards his back, Xiaxue as if she was a ghost who was haunting him wrapped her arms around his neck and legs around his stomach. Placing her head on his shoulder, Xiaxue used her tongue to flick his ear and seductively said, "If you want to, you can fuck both of my hol…."
"Stop!"
Raising his speed, Jian Shen was sweating heavily since this woman weighed like an elephant.
"Humph!"
Pouting cutely, Xiaxue who looked like she was hurt began using a handkerchief to blot his face and got rid of all the sweat which kept on pouring down without showing any signs of stopping.
"If I didn't know any better, I'd have thought that you were sweating due to carrying me."
"You don't know any better!"
Groaning loudly, Jian Shen couldn't believe how this woman who wasn't fat weighed this much. It was almost as if he was carrying a huge boulder on his back.
But what didn't make sense was that Jian Shen's physical body by itself was way so strong that he could lift boulders with just a single hand! So how in god's name was this woman resembling an elephant in weight?!!!
"You… Are you a dragon or a pig?! How do you weigh so much?!"
"So cruel!"
Not giving an answer, Xiaxue instead chose to further tease Jian Shen by kissing his neck, rubbing her fingers against his chest and so on. In fact, it looked as if she was doing everything possible to keep him distracted.
…
Falling to the floor, Jian Shen who had paid for an entire courtyard and not a single room was glaring weakly towards the woman who was the entire reason he was so tired and exhausted.
"You…. definitely aren't a dragon!!!'
Rolling her eyes, Xiaxue chose to not say any words to defend herself or change Jian Shen's opinion, instead she was actually smiling proudly as if she was satisfied by having achieved something great.
A while back she felt slightly guilty due to not considering Jian Shen's bright future, but now that she had helped him, Xiaxue no longer felt guilty since in her own way she had helped him keep his mind away from unconsciously thinking about the dao laws inside him and instead focussed on just carrying her.
Soon, Jian Shen himself would also understand that just his stray thoughts were corrupting the dao rings and what Xiaxue did was entirely to help him out. And when he did that, he'd think that she wasn't all that bad.
