Now that my cultivation has advanced further, my mastery over the power of ti has beco more adept, only now do I dare to walk the mortal realm with a clone.
His gaze swept over Li Mo, nodding slightly, and then looked at Su Wanqing, confirming with a single glance that the woman before him remained a pure, untouched virgin.
Lu Chengfeng was suddenly filled with a sense of guilt and, with a sowhat hoarse voice, said: "Wanqing, these years have been hard on you."
Upon hearing his words, Su Wanqing seed to co to her senses, the complex emotions vanishing from her eyes as she took a deep breath, tightly holding the Cyan Snake Sword with her right hand.
"Who are you really?"
"In this world, no one would impersonate to deceive you all, because there is no need for it." Lu Chengfeng slowly said, "Moreover, I’ve always been in contact with Li Mo over the years, verifying my authenticity should be easy, there’s no need for unnecessary acts."
Su Wanqing drew out the Cyan Snake Sword with a clang, its blade shimring with green light, exuding a biting chill, truly a rare treasure sword.
She stared intently at Lu Chengfeng, "Do you still rember this sword?"
Lu Chengfeng remained silent, sighing before saying, "This sword was the token of love I gifted you back at the Han River ferry."
"As long as you rember." Su Wanqing said stiffly, "You once said it wouldn’t be long before you’d co for , yet so much happened after that, you fled, wandering many lands, but never visited once."
"Though we had an agreent back then, these years felt but a stranger’s journey without marital bonds or companionship."
"Today, I return this sword to you, and from this mont on, we’re done with each other, the past commitnt null and void."
With that, she sheathed the Cyan Snake Sword with a clang, then flung it away, landing precisely in front of Lu Chengfeng.
Lu Chengfeng reached out, gently grasping the sword, and said with a hint of bitterness, "Indeed, I have wronged you these years, your grievances are justified."
"Logically, since you’ve chosen to return the token, seeking a life of your own, I should let you go."
"But you’ve preserved yourself for for so many years, yet you’re still pure and chaste, how can I ignore such devotion?"
"Do not flatter yourself." Su Wanqing said coldly, "When we made our agreent, naturally, I would not belong to another."
"I simply kept my promise, this has nothing to do with you."
Lu Chengfeng could only sigh in his heart, his mind sharp enough to instantly notice Li Mo’s constant concern and anxiety for Su Wanqing, along with a trace of pain and disorientation.
Clearly, this junior brother of his had fallen for Su Wanqing.
After so many years of being together daily, it was perfectly normal for Li Mo to fall in love with Su Wanqing.
But alas, falling petals have intent, flowing water is heartless.
Su Wanqing’s words were cold and indifferent towards him, as if eager to sever all ties, yet the turmoil in her heart could not escape him.
This woman felt more resentnt towards him!
Between them there wasn’t much affection, not even a consummated marriage, yet won of that era were so simple and pure.
Especially a noble lady born like Su Wanqing, once committed to soone, it ant for life.
Even if it’s just a promise, even just a mont of heart flutter, she could hold on for a lifeti.
It may not be love, but it is a woman’s steadfastness.
Since she made a pact with Lu Chengfeng, since he saved her from that wedding, she could never belong to another man again.
No matter how handso, wealthy, or gentle other n were, no matter how bright their futures.
If it’s not him, she wanted nothing.
Lu Chengfeng understood this clearly, thus feeling more guilt.
This world never lacks fickle won, but there are always those who are steadfast, honor their promises, keep themselves pure.
Su Wanqing is undoubtedly such a woman.
She and Li Mo are destined to have fate but no destiny.
Even if he truly parted ways with Su Wanqing, she would never give herself to another man for life.
Such a steadfast woman would love only one person in her lifeti.
Unless, a man directly broke her chastity, bore a child with her, over ti, she might gradually change her heart.
But Li Mo... he is not such a person.
Lu Chengfeng shook his head, he never intended to spend too much ti entangled in frivolous matters of the heart, for in the vast expanse of ti, mortal feelings are so brilliant yet inconsequential.
Like fireworks, gone in a flash.
Since Su Wanqing has waited for him for so long, giving her a title is only proper.
As for Li Mo, he could only offer his apologies.
Lu Chengfeng already had plans for his wives and concubines, mortal lifetis are limited after all, even if they barely achieve celestial status, they would inevitably turn to dust in the end.
Thus, the best outco would be for them to beco Guardian True Spirits, living dependently with him.
But achieving Guardian True Spirit requires the cultivation of a Primordial Spirit.
Most of his wives and concubines lack the Immortal Bone needed to achieve celestial status, making it nearly impossible for them to beco Celestial Humans.
Even in a prestigious sect like the Celestial Law-Controlling Sect, although there are thods to enable ordinary mortals to achieve celestial status, the cost is too great, not worth the expense.
Lu Chengfeng pondered over this matter for years, ultimately creating a Dual Cultivation Technique, nad the "Sun and Moon Heaven Repairing Scripture."
