Chapter 1325 -457: Lu Someone Was Once Wholly Devoted to the Sword!
âSo this is the Great Dream Immortal City?â
High in the sky, Lu Changsheng looked down at the massive city standing on a small island below.
Among the Three Great Immortal Cities of Jiang CountryâJiuxiao Immortal City, Azure Phoenix Immortal Cityâhe had visited them all.
But he had never been to the Great Dream Immortal City before.
Compared to the other two Immortal Cities, the Great Dream Immortal City was neither as prosperous and powerful as Jiuxiao Immortal City, nor as teeming with mixed fortunes and opportunities as Azure Phoenix Immortal City.
The sole advantage it had was its stability.

In all these years, Lu Changsheng had never heard of any power struggles or demon uprisings occurring in the Great Dream Immortal City.
âQing Yi, weâre now in the Great Dream Marsh. Iâm planning to visit the Great Dream Immortal Cityâdo you care to join me for a stroll?â
At this moment, Lu Changsheng thought of Chu Qingyi, who was inside the Tianyuan Lotus, and sent her a message.
He naturally noticed that since he had saved this Fairy Qing Yi, her heart and emotions had been in turmoil, unsure of how to face him.
This situation hadnât improved over time; in fact, it only worsened after her Core Formation breakthrough.
So, he figured inviting her out for a walk might help her ease her mind.
âAhâŠâ
Seated cross-legged, Chu Qingyi heard his words, and immediately her heart thudded wildly. She was flustered and utterly at a loss for how to respond.
Would it seem impolite if she refused him?
But if she didnât refuse, wouldnât roaming the Immortal City together make things even more unclear and ambiguous between them?
ââŠâ
Seeing the Fairy inside the Tianyuan Lotus growing flustered and uneasy, Lu Changsheng sighed helplessly.
He then stepped into the Cave Heaven, approached her, and gently grasped her delicate, soft hand. In a serious tone, he asked, âQing Yi, whatâs the matter with you?â
âAre you feeling unwell somewhere? Or did something go wrong during Core Formation causing discomfort? Do you need help stabilizing your Golden Core?â
Chu Qingyi: â???â
Was this man actually considering dual cultivation as a form of healing?
Chu Qingyi quickly calmed her chaotic mental spirit, casting her gaze downward. Her voice carried a trace of embarrassed frustration as she said, âIâm fine, Lu Daoist. About the matter from beforeâŠâ
But the words she wanted to say caught in her throat and refused to come out.
âI know youâre still upset with me,â Lu Changsheng said, sighing immediately upon seeing her hesitation. âIt was wrong of me to decide to save you without your consent, but I simply couldnât stand by and watch you die in front of me.â
âIf youâre willing, Iâll return to Qingyun Sect later and formally ask Caiyun True Immortal for your hand.â
Holding Chu Qingyiâs soft, exquisite hand, Lu Changsheng spoke sincerely.
But when he saw her beautiful eyes cast downward, avoiding his gaze, he grew despondent and added, âHowever⊠if youâre unwilling, Iâll treat this as a dream and ensure no one else ever knows. Once youâve recovered, I wonât trouble you anymore.â
âFor now, just focus on regaining your strength. If you need anything, let me know anytime.â
Lu Changshengâs expression was filled with loss. With a sigh, he reluctantly released Chu Qingyiâs delicate hand.
âI⊠I donâtâŠâ
Hearing his words, Chu Qingyi froze, her flawless cheeks betraying a moment of surprise. A wave of guilt and tenderness swelled in her heart.
Despite all he had done selflessly to save her, even helping her to form a Superior Gold Core, he acted as though he owed her something.
âReally? Qing Yi, youâre not angry with me?â
Lu Changshengâs face, which had been clouded with gloom, instantly lit up with joy. He clasped her silky hand tightly again.
âMmâŠâ
Chu Qingyi instinctively tried to pull her hand free from his grasp, but when she failed to do so, she let it be and said softly, âSince weâve come to the Great Dream Immortal City, letâs have a look around. Iâve never been here either.â
âBut⊠Lu Daoist, could you stop calling me Qing Yi?â
Back in the Sect, everyone addressed her as Senior or Junior Sister. The name âQing Yiâ was reserved for her master and a few elders.
Now hearing Lu Changsheng call her by such an intimate name made her feel an inexplicable sense of discomfort.
âAlright, in that case, how about I call you Senior Sister?â
Lu Changshengâs gaze softened as he moved a little closer to Chu Qingyi.
In truth, calling her Qing Yi was simply his way of being a bit more familiar and held no other intentions.
On the other hand, addressing her as âSenior Sisterâ seemed to carry a different kind of undertone.
Hearing this, Chu Qingyiâs heart skipped a beat. Her beautiful eyes filled with a mixture of embarrassment and annoyance, and she felt as though she wanted to disappear into the ground.
This man clearly had an unusual relationship with Junior Sister Xiao Xiyue, yet here she was, entangled in such an unclear situation with him. She tried once again to free her hand from Lu Changshengâs grasp.
âLu Daoist, what about you and Xiao XiyueâŠâ
Chu Qingyi kept her head slightly lowered as she asked softly.
Although she already knew the answer, she couldnât help but seek confirmation.
âThatâs correct. Xiao Xiyue and I have already become Dao Companions. But, as Senior Sister knows, Xiao Xiyue cultivates the Supreme Forgetful Love Technique. Without overcoming the tribulation of emotions, breaking through to Core Formation is difficult for her.â
âSo weâre waiting for her to complete her Core Formation breakthrough before holding the Dao Companion Ceremony.â
Lu Changsheng spoke with a calm and honest expression.
He knew Chu Qingyi already suspected his relationship with Xiao Xiyue and was merely asking for confirmation.
Though he could have lied to her and placated her temporarily, he, Lu Someone, no matter how despicable, couldnât bring himself to do such a thing.
Besides, the two women, being Senior and Junior Sisters, would inevitably encounter each other in the future. It was better to disclose everything upfront.
âWhat Xiao Xiyue and I have, Master has already approved of. In fact, the Sun Moon Samsara Technique was given to us by Master to cultivate together.â
Lu Changsheng continued, âIsnât it remarkable how the Sun Moon Samsara Technique happened to lead me to the inheritance of the Tianyuan True Monarch, allowing me to coincidentally use this cultivation technique to save you, Senior Sister?â
âI heard from Xiao Xiyue that this Sun Moon Samsara Technique was actually obtained by you and Master together in the Tianyuan Secret Realm.â
As he spoke, Lu Changshengâs hand gradually moved to rest on Chu Qingyiâs fragrant shoulder, his smile warm and genuine.
âStop⊠just call me Qing Yi insteadâŠâ
Listening to him repeatedly mention Xiao Xiyue, âSenior Sister,â and âMasterâ in every other sentence, Chu Qingyi felt entirely at a loss, a surge of unspeakable embarrassment welling up within her.
Though his addressing her like this wasnât inappropriate considering his relationship with Xiao Xiyue, she still found it hard to bear.
