Saint Emperor Devourer of Heaven

Yue Chenyu laughed, the kind of sudden, irrepressible laughter that formed a stark contrast with her usual icy demeanor.

Jun Wuxie couldn't help but be stunned, a flash of amazement in his eyes. This woman's smile was truly beautiful, stirring the soul and involuntarily captivating him, threatening to drown him in its radiant charm.

However, for him, no matter how beautiful a woman was, beauty alone could not bewitch his mind.

He had seen too many beautiful women, some of whom surpassed the limits of worldly imagination.

For example, Ye Qingxue, Zhuque, Yueyao, and Chan'er in her adult form. Even Ling Qingyu, Ji Yinlan, Lingfei, Yan Qingcheng, Shangguan Wanwan, Mu Xuelan, Mu Yunxi, Su Xiaoxiao, and Mu Yuning were all beautiful to the extreme.

Surrounded by such stunning women, he had developed a strong immunity to mere beauty.

The woman before him had smiled, a fleeting moment of brilliance, but it was like a flash in the pan, her face quickly returning to its usual coldness.

"You look very beautiful when you smile. You should smile more often, instead of always being so cold and murderous."

"I can't learn it. I don't know how to smile."

Yue Chenyu withdrew the true energy from her hand. The tea was ready.

"Didn't you just smile?"

Jun Wuxie reached out to pick up the teapot, intending to pour tea.

"You saw wrong."

Yue Chenyu denied it, her soft fingers covering the back of his hand, saying, "Let me do it."

Jun Wuxie smiled, withdrew his hand, and didn't insist.

After she poured the tea, he grabbed her hand and turned her palm over.

It was smooth skin, as delicate and lustrous as jade, unlike the calloused hands she used to have from gripping a sword hilt.

"You're not practicing swordsmanship anymore? Or has your swordsmanship reached the realm you mentioned?"

"I still practice, but I'm still quite far from that realm."

Yue Chenyu's voice was cold, but she didn't pull her hand away, letting him hold it.

"Didn't you say it wasn't necessary? Why are you suddenly so concerned about the beauty of your hands?"

"I'm just suddenly tired of having calloused hands. Did you come here today specifically to look at my hands?"

She picked up the steaming tea and took a small sip, looking at him with a questioning gaze.

"I came to see you, not your hands." Jun Wuxie released her hand and sighed, "In the past year, I've returned to the sect many times, but I haven't had a chance to meet with you. These disciples of the sect should have been taught by me, the sect leader and master, but you have taken on these responsibilities for me. Thank you for your hard work."

"It's just a small effort. I have nothing else to do anyway. Besides, I'm seeking refuge here, so I should do something for the sect. Now, I am a member of the Zhuxian Sword Sect. You are the sect leader and senior brother, and I am your junior sister, as well as the junior master of the disciples. It is only right that I teach them swordsmanship."

"You joined the Zhuxian Sword Sect?" Jun Wuxie was taken aback. Why hadn't the ancestor mentioned this? He thought for a moment, a strange expression on his face, and said, "Junior sister? Isn't Xiao Fanyin the junior sister?"

Yue Chenyu's fair face blushed for the first time, and she said, "Fanyin is the senior sister. I joined the latest, so I'm ranked last."

Jun Wuxie: …

The muscles at the corner of his mouth twitched slightly as he imagined Yue Chenyu calling the wobbly, milk-bottle-toting Xiao Fanyin 'Senior Sister.' The scene was too incongruous…

Coming back to his senses, he took out the divine beast's essence blood and said, "This is for you. It can temper your physical body. Those of you who cultivate true energy have bodies that are too weak. You should greatly strengthen your physical bodies."

Yue Chenyu glanced at it, a look of shock flashing in her black gemstone-like eyes: "This is the essence blood of a divine beast?"

"That's right, the essence blood of a Saint Realm divine beast. I killed an ancient divine beast from the upper realm in the Extraterritorial Ruins. There are six types of divine beast essence blood here. Use them in rotation, and they should be able to increase your physical strength more than tenfold."

She didn't say anything more, put away the divine beast essence blood, and felt deeply shocked.

A Saint Realm divine beast descended to the lower realm, and Jun Wuxie actually killed it in the Extraterritorial Ruins! Six types of divine beast essence blood meant that he had killed six divine beasts!

She couldn't imagine how he had done it.

"There's also this, Thunder Tribulation Liquid. Use it to temper your physical body, and you can absorb its thunder essence, giving your body a decent resistance to lightning. It will also make it easier to survive tribulations in the future."

He took out a jade bottle filled with pre-packaged purple liquid, shimmering with lightning.

"These are all priceless treasures, resources that people can't even beg for, and you're just giving them to me for free?"

Yue Chenyu said, but her hands were very honest, putting away the Thunder Tribulation Liquid.

"Aren't you my junior sister? Shouldn't a senior brother give you some resources without you being so surprised?"

Jun Wuxie said, taking out two fruits filled with auspicious energy, immediately filling the courtyard with fragrance, refreshing the heart and lungs.

"Hundred-Blessing Fruits!"

Yue Chenyu finally couldn't maintain her composure and stood up in shock.

As a Reincarnator who had awakened part of her past life's memories, she was extremely familiar with the Hundred-Blessing Fruit, far more detailed than the records in the lower realm's ancient books.

This kind of extraordinary fruit could bestow luck upon the consumer, a heaven-defying object!

One's luck could potentially change one's entire fate!

Luck was mysterious and elusive. Throughout the myriad realms, across countless universes, luck was interconnected. This mysterious thing was probably the only thing common to all endless universes.

Everyone's luck was predetermined at birth. To increase one's luck through acquired means was almost impossible, extremely difficult, and only a very few people had been able to do it since ancient times.

Those who could enhance their own luck, in a sense, had the means to defy fate.

Now, Jun Wuxie was giving her two Hundred-Blessing Fruits, equivalent to laying the foundation for her to defy fate!

She asked how he had obtained these Hundred-Blessing Fruits.

Jun Wuxie didn't hide anything and explained the events of the Myriad Laws Sacred Ground in detail.

Yue Chenyu was stunned for a long time.

"The Myriad Laws Sacred Ground actually had this opportunity and obtained so many Hundred-Blessing Trees. It's a pity that they don't seem to understand the Hundred-Blessing Fruit and wasted them in vain, squandering natural gifts."

"What do you mean?"

Jun Wuxie looked at her in surprise.

Yue Chenyu said, "Based on what you said, the Myriad Laws Sacred Ground must have given these Hundred-Blessing Fruits to the most outstanding geniuses of the sect. At that time, their geniuses must have been at a high level, which is a waste because the timing of use was wrong."

"When is the best time to use the Hundred-Blessing Fruit?"

"Naturally, the earlier the better."

Yue Chenyu said that the effect of taking the Hundred-Blessing Fruit was best before the Saint Realm, as one could fully absorb the luck from the fruit. Once one entered the Saint Realm, the effect would plummet.

She explained that below the Saint Realm, one was still considered a mortal, but the Saint Realm was different.

When a cultivator entered the Saint Realm and achieved a leap in life, mysterious forces would sense this. At that time, increasing one's luck through external forces would be hindered and suppressed, and ultimately, very little luck would be absorbed.

As the realm increased, the effect would only become weaker and weaker, until finally, one would hardly gain any luck from the Hundred-Blessing Fruit.

"However, one can only take a maximum of three Hundred-Blessing Fruits. After three, one can no longer gain luck enhancement from them, but the other effects of the Hundred-Blessing Fruit will not be affected."

Jun Wuxie was very uneasy when he heard this, staring at her with a shocked expression.

"Why are you looking at me like that?"

"I was thinking that your height in your previous life must have been much greater than I imagined…"

Jun Wuxie had this deduction based on the different reactions of Yue Chenyu and Ji Yinlan when they saw the Hundred-Blessing Fruit.

Ji Yinlan hadn't mentioned these things to him, indicating that she didn't know, or perhaps Ji Yinlan's memory recovery wasn't as good as Yue Chenyu's.

But no matter what, Yue Chenyu's achievements in her previous life were extremely high, there was no doubt about that.

After all, she knew things that even the Myriad Laws Sacred Ground didn't know.

"The previous life is the previous life, already buried in that era that can't be returned to. What does it matter how high the achievements were?" Yue Chenyu's eyes were slightly dazed, with a hint of sadness between her brows, then she stared at Jun Wuxie and said, "In this life, I still have to rely on you to return to the peak of my previous life, and may even surpass it."

"Rely on me? Can a little Lesser Heavenly Position Half-Saint like me take you back to the peak of your previous life?"

"What's wrong with a Lesser Heavenly Position Half-Saint? All the supreme powerhouses of ancient times started cultivating from the acquired realm. Everyone has a growth process, and no one is born invincible."

"You believe that I can be invincible in the future?"

"I believe it. In a vague memory from my previous life, I seem to have seen a corner of the future, and I also saw your back…"

"The more you talk, the more mysterious it becomes. I haven't reached that level, so I can't understand such things." Jun Wuxie stopped discussing this with her and took out another Hundred-Blessing Fruit, "You said that you can take up to three to enhance your luck, this one is for you."

After speaking, he continued to take out various rare resources, such as Thousand-Year Scarlet Fruits and Red Jade Ginseng, piling them on the wooden table, a considerable amount, filled with vitality and overflowing with medicinal fragrance.

"You…" Yue Chenyu's sexy and charming red lips parted slightly, looking at the rare resources in front of her, stunned for a long time before saying, "Did you… rob the treasury of some Supreme Ruler?"

"You're right, I did rob a treasury, the treasury of a force with a deeper foundation than even a Supreme Ruler." Jun Wuxie smiled and stood up, saying, "It's getting late, I should leave. Cultivate well in the sect. If you need any resources, go to Lingfei. Our Zhuxian Sword Sect may not have anything else, but we don't lack top-level cultivation resources."

"Wait."

Yue Chenyu quickly stepped forward.

"What, do you want to keep me here overnight?"

Jun Wuxie deliberately teased her.

Yue Chenyu's expression remained unchanged. Her slightly cold eyes looked into his, and she said, "If you want to spend the night here, you can at any time. If you want my body, I'll let you take it."

She spoke these words very calmly, as if she were talking about something unrelated to herself.

"Are you crazy?"

Jun Wuxie reached out and pinched her chin, forcibly raising her cold and beautiful face. He looked at her coldly and said, "Also, I don't like playing with corpses! Even if you don't care about this body, you shouldn't treat it so lightly, even if the object is me!"

After he finished speaking, he turned and left.

"Remember to notify me when the Golden Scaled Secret Realm opens."

Yue Chenyu's icy voice carried over. Her expression was very calm, as if Jun Wuxie's actions and words just now had not caused any psychological fluctuations in her.

"You're going to the Golden Scaled Secret Realm?"

Jun Wuxie stopped, his back to her, and said, "Aren't you worried about the Soul Hunting Hall's Half-Sage dealing with you?"

"I am worried, but I must go. I need to obtain something in the Golden Scaled Secret Realm that can enhance my luck. At that time, I will travel with you. Are you willing or not?"

Her voice was always icy, devoid of any emotion.

"Wait for news. I'll take you there when the time comes."

After Jun Wuxie finished speaking, his figure had already disappeared into the valley.

Yue Chenyu quietly watched the valley entrance. Her black gemstone-like eyes reflected the starlight of the night sky, and the coldness in her eyes gradually faded a little.

She stood there for a long time, and suddenly a blush appeared on her face, as if she had thought of something.

But soon, she returned to her usual cold expression, turned around, entered the bedroom, and closed the door.

… …

Jun Wuxie returned to the small courtyard in front of Sect King Mountain. He looked at the row of houses in front of him, pondered slightly, went to Mu Yunxi's room, pushed the door open and walked in, casually setting up a barrier to envelop the house.

When Mu Yunxi saw him enter, a blush quickly crept onto her ice-like face. She got up to greet him, and like a considerate wife, gently untied his belt, took off his outer shirt, and then poured a cup of hot tea and handed it to him.
