After hearing this, Lu Ning frowned slightly.
She hadn’t expected this rebellious disciple to turn the tables and use this matter to threaten her.
“Qinghuan, are you threatening your master?”
“Master, you exaggerate. Your disciple is merely acting as your personal maid, negotiating a trade with you.”
“Besides, your disciple is already familiar with everything about Master. Now I simply wish to review and learn anew. Could it be… that Master can’t even grant me such a small request?”
At this moment, Lu Ning inwardly grumbled: [Can’t this rebellious disciple put anything other than dirty thoughts into that little head of hers?]
Before Lu Ning could respond, Gu Qinghuan stepped forward and embraced her completely from behind, pressing her little face against Lu Ning’s shoulder.
“Master, isn’t this what you wanted deep down too?”
“Otherwise, there would have been no need to send that little Junior Aunt away.”
“Actually, Master, while your mouth keeps refusing, your heart has always wanted to be intimate with me, your personal maid. Isn’t that right?”
Lu Ning: “?????”
At this point, Lu Ning interrupted directly, “I only wanted to ask you about some things. I have no feelings for you.”
“Really? Master, you’re not exactly new to saying one thing while meaning another. Don’t you think I can tell that your body is being quite honest?”
As she finished speaking, Gu Qinghuan pressed even closer to Lu Ning.
Feeling the soft warmth behind her, Lu Ning’s earlobes turned slightly red.
Seeing this, Gu Qinghuan gently kissed Lu Ning’s cheek.
“How is Master’s consideration? As long as you accept this maid’s service, your disciple will truthfully tell you everything you want to know.”
Lu Ning: “…”
After composing herself, Lu Ning finally spoke.
“Fine… I can agree to it. But if you dare deceive your master afterward, the consequences will be severe…”
After much deliberation, Lu Ning decided to agree to Gu Qinghuan’s proposed deal.
In her view, this rebellious disciple’s maneuvers were all within her expectations.
But as far as Lu Ning was concerned, the most important thing now was to obtain more information about the Central Region.
With Liu Ningshuang absent, if another powerful expert descended from the Central Region, it would be a devastating blow to the entire North Region.
Moreover, if she could break through to the Tribulation Transcendence stage, Lu Ning was confident she could crush all the powerful experts in the North Region.
By then, she would not only have the strength to protect herself but could also become the undisputed ruler of the North Region.
And those wicked women who had bullied her in the past would finally face her retaliation.
Outwardly, as Lu Ning agreed, a look of joy appeared on Gu Qinghuan’s face.
Then, she pressed close to Lu Ning’s ear and slowly said, “This was your own choice, Master…”
…
Inside the Sovereign Hall, two silhouettes swayed and intertwined, soft sounds of pleasure quietly emanating.
Gu Qinghuan’s low voice continuously sounded in Lu Ning’s ear.
“Master, do you like me as your maid?”
“We haven’t seen each other for months. Master, why have you become so skilled?”
“Perhaps… you could tell me what happened in the Forbidden Land?”
…
Inside the Phoenix Palace of the Great Wilderness Dynasty.
Ji Linglong, who had been meditating, suddenly opened her eyes.
Her aura surged dramatically at that moment, then quickly receded, appearing as deep and unfathomable as an abyss.
Having finished her cultivation, she spread her divine sense across the entire North Region.
Suddenly, as if sensing something, her pupils contracted slightly.
She quickly rose and called out to the white-robed woman guarding outside.
“Let’s go. Accompany this princess to the Tianmo Sect. My A-Ning has finally returned.”
On the other side, Gu Qinghuan pressed contentedly against Lu Ning’s body.
“Master, the maid’s service is over. Now… it’s your turn to help your good disciple deal with ‘Star Language’.”
Lu Ning looked up at Gu Qinghuan and slowly spoke, “Qinghuan, you promised me a trade…”
“Oh? I almost forgot. Master wants to know how to break through the North Region’s limitations and advance from Mahayana to Tribulation Transcendence?”
Lu Ning nodded, her eyes showing a hint of anticipation as she looked at Gu Qinghuan.
But Gu Qinghuan’s lips curled into a sly smile.
“Master, the reason I was able to break through is simply because I have good talent. There’s no secret at all.”
“Besides, if there really were a secret, how could I so easily reveal it to you? You, Master, already have the strength to fight a Tribulation Transcendence expert while at Mahayana. If you broke through to Tribulation Transcendence, wouldn’t I lose any chance to get close to you?”
Lu Ning: “…”
At this moment, Lu Ning inwardly exclaimed: [What’s going on? When did this rebellious disciple grow a brain? She’s seen right through my intentions.]
Outwardly, Lu Ning frowned slightly.
“Qinghuan, are you saying you were lying to me earlier?”
“No, no… I really do know some secrets about the Tribulation Transcendence stage. How about this? Master, help me out a bit more, and I’ll definitely tell you everything I know. Please trust me one more time.”
Lu Ning: “…”
By now, even Lu Ning, slow as she might be, could see that this rebellious disciple was manipulating her.
She had always been the one to deceive others.
She never imagined that one day this tactic would be used on her.
“Qinghuan, you really dare to play me for a fool. Since you won’t respond to gentleness, I’ll have to resort to force.”
As she finished speaking, Lu Ning unleashed her Heavenly Demon Domain, enveloping the entire Sovereign Hall.
Seeing that Lu Ning was getting serious, Gu Qinghuan suddenly kissed her forcefully.
Then, her Taiyin energy continuously flowed into Lu Ning’s body.
At that moment, Lu Ning suddenly found herself unable to exert any strength.
The Heavenly Demon Domain radiating from her began to shatter into pieces.
After a moment, Gu Qinghuan slowly released Lu Ning.
“Master, as long as you continue to cultivate together with your disciple, you will quickly break through to the Tribulation Transcendence stage.”
“Don’t worry, Master. I will make sure that only my aura remains on your body.”
Just as Lu Ning was being affected by the seductive influence of the Taiyin energy, a faint spatial fluctuation appeared.
Then, two figures descended upon the Tianmo Sect.
The arrivals were none other than Ji Linglong and the white-robed woman from the Central Region.
The other elders and disciples of the Tianmo Sect showed no surprise at Ji Linglong’s appearance.
In their view, the Tianmo Sect and the Great Wilderness Dynasty had long been allies.
This Eldest Princess must have come to discuss matters with their Sect Master.
At that moment, sensing Ji Linglong’s aura, Gu Qinghuan paused her actions.
A slight look of displeasure appeared on her face.
She gently caressed Lu Ning’s cheek.
“Master, let me go deal with the nuisance first. I’ll return to your side soon and continue helping you improve your cultivation.”
As Gu Qinghuan finished speaking, she adjusted her clothes and vanished from the spot in an instant.
On the other side, Ji Linglong’s gaze fell upon the Sovereign Hall.
Just as she was about to move, Gu Qinghuan’s figure appeared before her.
“Eldest Princess, long time no see. May I ask what brings you to the Tianmo Sect so suddenly?”
