Chapter 129

These days, Pei Chuyun moved into the Pei family, and Lu Xingzhou devoted himself to reading, and the two hadn't seen each other for about ten days.

Originally, Pei Chuyun didn't think that leaving Lu Xingzhou for a few days would have any longing. Not to mention that just entering the Pei family was busy, just recognizing people's faces and learning some basic etiquette of the family took a lot of time and energy, and there shouldn't be any thoughts of thinking about anything else.

As a result, every night when it was quiet, she climbed the small building prepared for her by Pei Qingyan, and when she looked at the moon, the poem "The cold is on the small building" he wrote would pop out of her heart.

Then look left, there is no fine rain tonight, look right, the one hanging the treasure curtain is not a silver hook, turn around and look at the flower screen, it is not quiet enough, nothing is comfortable.

Finally, she realized, it's not these problems, it's just loneliness.

Just... a little miss him.

Today was the grand ceremony for returning to the clan, Pei Chuyun rarely deliberately dressed up, everyone thought she was preparing for the ceremony, wanting to amaze the world. No one knew that the little demoness was just thinking, would that lecher's eyes light up if he saw her like this?

As a result, he didn't come.

Pei Chuyun knew why he didn't come. Once he came, according to Pei Qingyan's statement of "having great kindness," Pei Qingyan would have to treat him as a guest of honor even if he was unwilling. Then he would be in the same hall with Pei Chuyun, being looked at and watched by people's eyes, guessing their relationship, guessing whether the maid beside Lu Xingzhou a few days ago was this one, whether the two had done anything, and so on.

Lu Xingzhou intended to clarify, diluting his existence, just so that her return to glory would not be affected in any way.

The more she thought about it, the more she wanted to see him.

Fortunately, A-Nuo followed Sheng Yuanyao to eat melons, and she could quietly grab A-Nuo and ask for the address.

It was hard to wait until the banquet was over, Pei Chuyun rubbed her face that had been stiff from fake smiling all day, and ran away through the window without saying a word when she returned to her small building.

"Master." A guard captain hurriedly found Pei Qingyan: "Just now, the breath of a Hehuan demon cultivator seemed to sweep over the backyard, the brothers on duty couldn't even see the person's shadow, just smelling some fragrance made them fall into a sense of sound and color, and their desires were stirring. The other party's Hehuan magic power is really strong..."

"..." How could Pei Qingyan not know who the so-called Hehuan demon cultivator was, he pinched his head with a headache: "No conflict, right?"

"No. We think it's probably because the young lady's beauty spread in the capital today, which aroused the attention of the Hehuan Sect, and someone came to peek... Maybe it's a subordinate of the Saintess. We are all men and it's not convenient to go to the young lady's boudoir; I'm afraid the Master needs to consider recruiting female guards."

"Got it. You protect the backyard, don't worry about anything else. Yun'er's cultivation is also quite high, and generally there is no problem with self-protection..."

The guard captain agreed: "It's really unexpected that the young lady wandered in the Jianghu and could enter Grade 4 at a young age; the Pei family bloodline is really powerful, and this newcomer list is going to change greatly."

Pei Qingyan twitched the corners of his mouth. Others thought this was just entering Grade 4, because Pei Chuyun didn't show her true skills. In fact, she was a solid Grade 4 upper stage, and this cultivation at eighteen is not called powerful, it's simply shocking. Originally, it was something worth bragging about for a lifetime, but this true skill cannot be exposed...

Now I just hope Yun'er can practice the Pei family technique well and cover up the Hehuan magic power.

But you practice and practice, where are you?

You don't want to be a young lady, you are sent to be a warm-bed maid for someone!

If it weren't for the secretly invited nanny who knew how to look at women to see, the daughter was indeed still a virgin, I'm afraid Pei Qingyan would have cracked.

"Forget it... They were together in the same room every day before, and they could hold back; now it shouldn't be too indulgent." Pei Qingyan was very helpless, whispering to himself: "It's probably because she stayed in the Hehuan Sect for too long and lost her restraint... Fortunately, she is still young, there is still salvation, teach her more self-respect in the future, and strive to bring her on the right path..."

The daughter that Pei Qingyan expected to teach more self-respect was already in the man's arms at this time, the grand dress was stripped from her shoulders, revealing snow-white fragrant shoulders, and the man was kissing everywhere on her shoulders and neck. The little demoness raised her neck, and the cherry lips deliberately wiped with rouge made an alluring gasp.

A-Nuo hugged her knees and sat outside the door, sniffing.

Blocking you from entering is really not helping Sister Yao, but because as soon as you enter, it will inevitably become like this, Master wants to read...

It's really a disaster; when will Master realize that A-Nuo is the best assistant.

But it's so strange, why did Master break through to Grade 5, A-Nuo still hasn't figured it out. It seems like that evening Master was holding Sister A-Yun in the room, and when he came out, he broke through... and Sister A-Yun seems to have become a little stronger.

Inside, they had already naturally started dual cultivation by passing energy; with the first time, the second time was simply a matter of course, and they didn't need to speak. The two kissed and kissed, and Pei Chuyun actively sent her spiritual energy over, and dual cultivation started at the right time.

Until a round of dual cultivation was completed, Pei Chuyun leaned on Lu Xingzhou's shoulder and drew circles: "Do you feel it's not enough..."

Lu Xingzhou couldn't help laughing: "Are you feeling it's not comfortable enough, or are you feeling that relying on this is not enough to break through to Grade 3?"

"Both!" Pei Chuyun said so, but quickly changed her words: "I'm asking you, don't you feel it?"

Lu Xingzhou knew what she wanted to say, and deliberately said: "I'm not in a hurry to break through. Actually, for an alchemist, the process of refining elixirs is also cultivation; these days I have quite a lot of precipitation..."

Pei Chuyun bit her silver teeth, kicked him angrily: "Then go and refine your elixir, have the ability not to touch me."

"Elixir is not as delicious as your rouge today." Lu Xingzhou leaned over and kissed again: "Especially the Pei family's rouge, it's especially delicious."

Pei Chuyun pushed him, laughing: "I knew it... Why, does the feeling of playing with the Pei family daughter feel more energetic than before?"

"It's the Pei family daughter who is willing to take the initiative to send it to the door, this feeling is more energetic."

Pei Chuyun was stunned, and laughed: "Do you think I will break with you after I go back?"

Lu Xingzhou turned over and lay on the side, hugging her in his shoulder and whispering: "I was worried..."

"Since you were worried, why did you support me returning to the clan? You have to know, if you had persuaded me a few words at that time, I might not have returned."

"Two things. Ultimately... I also don't have a father."

Pei Chuyun didn't speak, quietly lying on his chest, listening to the sound of his heartbeat.

After a long while, she suddenly laughed lightly: "Your muscles have grown; they were thin and dry before, but now they are a bit interesting."

These days, Lu Xingzhou has also been taking the strength-increasing pills he refined at home, which are almost finished, and combined with recent exercise, his muscles are becoming more and more shaped.

If ordinary people want to practice beautiful muscle lines, it takes years and months, and the world of cultivation is so bugged, shortening this kind of thing greatly.

Now his lines, although not very good, are already very readable, at least not the weak scholar style before. Men's muscles have a great temptation for women, Pei Chuyun touched and touched, and her heart had some small ripples, and she whispered: "Do you want to come again?"

Lu Xingzhou sighed: "You... if you don't go back, Pei Qingyan will really come to the door."

Pei Chuyun didn't know this truth, but it was just a hurried meeting and she had to go back, which was a bit reluctant: "I haven't hugged you to sleep for a long time."

"Don't be in a hurry for a moment."

Pei Chuyun said angrily: "When a group of people come to propose marriage, let's see if you are in a hurry for a moment!"

Lu Xingzhou thought for a while, and suddenly smiled: "I asked Melon Sister, the Capital Alchemy Academy and the Imperial College are connected, in a sense, we will soon be classmates."

Pei Chuyun thought of the scene and felt it was a bit interesting, but still said: "So what, you can't sleep."

"I can pursue you publicly; when the time comes, see which blind flies there are, I will block them all."

Pei Chuyun was happy instantly.

Originally, the little demoness had some interest in attending the Imperial College, but didn't have much expectation. It was mainly to plate gold and create a talented woman persona. But thinking of the scene of Lu Xingzhou pursuing her publicly, she suddenly became very, very interested, wishing she could enroll tomorrow.

"Then I'll go first, lest my father really come to the door and drag you to be soaked in a pig cage." Pei Chuyun kissed him in his ear and whispered: "You must pass the assessment... I'll wait for you to have an affair at the Imperial College."

…………

In the following time, Pei Chuyun rarely came to disturb, and Sheng Yuanyao came less, everyone didn't want to disturb Lu Xingzhou's reading and refining elixirs too much.

I heard that Sheng Yuanyao was almost beaten by Sheng Qingfeng and ordered to go to work.

The little demoness who once said "I am your enemy, isn't it natural to disturb your cultivation" now pulled a cart of alchemy books collected by the Pei family and piled them in Lu Xingzhou's room, which made Lu Xingzhou dumbfounded.

What he lacked was really not learning materials.

In addition, the Huo family came to discuss "compensation matters," and the envoy sent was an old acquaintance Yang Dechang.

Lu Xingzhou didn't knock any bamboo poles, just let the Huo family provide a batch of medicinal materials he needed for experimental alchemy, as well as a large amount of spiritual stones needed for cultivation, and that was it. The signal released made Huo Xingyuan very entangled in his heart, really not knowing what this "son" meant.

In fact, Lu Xingzhou was just too lazy to calculate on this kind of thing and waste cultivation time; asking for some spiritual stones and medicinal materials directly is the most straightforward, and this kind of thing is always in demand.

No matter what, the disturbances in the capital were finally over, and Lu Xingzhou settled his heart on reading and refining elixirs, and he found it a bit funny in a daze.

If it weren't for the quietness of this period, he would have almost forgotten what he came to the capital for in the first place.

In late February, the young Daoist priests on the streets and alleys gradually increased, the inns began to be full, and the topics discussed in the wine shops and teahouses also turned from the previous Ye Wufeng case and the return of the Pei family daughter to a large number of alchemy-related topics.

And guessing who can have the best performance in the assessment—the current alchemy study is a bit like the imperial examination, and the Alchemy Academy assessment also has to be posted, if you can be the first in the assessment to enroll, it is no different from the glory of the top graduate in ancient Huaxia.

Sheng Yuanyao sat in the tavern eating melons, pricking up her ears to listen to others' discussions.

Beyond Melon Sister's expectation, Lu Xingzhou, who was on people's lips in the previous few events, didn't have many splashes this time in the discussion, and almost no one mentioned him.

In the hearts of most people, they didn't even know what special reputation Lu Xingzhou had in alchemy; what people could remember was just the newcomer list that was about to be changed, Lu Xingzhou was ranked 38th among alchemy newcomers.

Thirty-eight, it's not low in normal circumstances, but in this atmosphere, it really can't be counted as a seed player, and there are a bunch in front.

Although many of those ranked in front have already enrolled, or don't participate in the court's assessment at all, there are still five or six people left who can be ranked in front of Lu Xingzhou, and Lu Xingzhou's popularity index can't even enter the top three.

"Betting, betting!" Someone was opening a gambling market: "I bet three hundred taels on Xuanqing Daoist! That's the third among alchemy newcomers!"

"I bet five hundred taels on Hehui Daoist! That newcomer list is old calendar, who looks at that to eat!"

"I bet four hundred on Xuanqing!"

"Bang!" A huge gold ingot was placed on the table. Everyone turned to look, a ponytail girl wearing the Demon Suppression Division's official uniform stepped on the bench and pressed her waist knife: "I bet five hundred taels of gold on Lu Xingzhou!"
