434: Erhuan woke up

Shen Jinhuan reached the Late Stage Golden Core.

At eighteen years old, reaching the Late Stage Golden Core made her a Prodigy among prodigies in the Lower Realm.

Of course, Jiang Ning didn't count. If he didn't have his cheats, he would probably still be an Elder of the Sixth Peak of the Bixiao Sect, just idling his days away.

Whenever a major conflict arose, he would simply run away and continue his life in some secluded place.

That was just how Jiang Ning was.

If cultivation was difficult, he wouldn't do it. Without his cheats, he wouldn't even have the right to get involved in the struggles between the Female Lead and the villains.

Shen Jinhuan said happily, "Revered Master, I'm at the Late Stage Golden Core now!"

Jiang Ning replied, "I can feel it. But with this cultivation speed, can you really suppress the growth of the Devilish Qi?"

"I have my own little trick."

Shen Jinhuan smiled.

The rapid growth of Devilish Qi would inevitably affect her emotional stability.

At such times, she just needed to kill a few shameless attention-seekers to vent her frustrations.

These Spirit Ruins were truly a good place.

She didn't even need to look for villains; she could just kill the remnant wills.

Jiang Ning didn't ask what her trick was; as long as she was happy, it was fine.

Now, the only thing worrying Jiang Ning was Second Huan.

"Still no movement from Second Huan?"

"No."

Second Huan was a part of her Divine Soul. Although she had her own independent consciousness, they were still one soul.

Shen Jinhuan frowned and said, "I feel like Second Huan might be recovering while simultaneously increasing her level. Now that my Realm has broken through, I can provide her with some assistance."

"Increasing her level again?"

Jiang Ning was stunned. "Is Second Huan already at the Nascent Soul Mid-stage?"

Hiss... At this rate, it wouldn't be long before Second Huan reached Soul Transformation!

Can this thing really be that fast?

Jiang Ning thought for a moment. "How about we stay here for a while? There are many Spirit Ruins here, which is perfect for Second Huan's cultivation."

"Revered Master, what are you thinking!"

Shen Jinhuan playfully reached out and poked Jiang Ning's forehead.

Revered Master was small and quite cute!

"Second Huan hasn't been out for long. Her increase in soul power is still within the scope of the Early Stages. Besides, Second Huan and I feel that she can't just keep increasing indefinitely.

Her Realm might be restricted by mine."

Jiang Ning nodded.

He breathed a sigh of relief.

He was thinking that if the Deity Transformation Realm involved tempering the Divine Soul, then once Second Huan reached that level, would she drag the young girl up with her?

"Does Second Huan's Realm increasing help you?"

"It should, but it's not as helpful as my own progress is to her."

"I see."

Jiang Ning understood.

What a pity.

Otherwise, the girl really would have a cheat.

"In that case, once Second Huan has recovered, let's set off for the Great Qian Immortal Dynasty."

"Mm."

...A week passed.

Shen Jinhuan saw the Cocoon in her Sea of Consciousness stir.

Then, a dark red halo emerged from the Sea of Consciousness.

Within the Spirit Ruins.

Second Huan stretched and smoothed out her skirt.

Her slender waist and full chest formed a beautiful curve.

As she adjusted her skirt, her smooth, fair, long legs were revealed, making Jiang Ning's face flush.

Second Huan smiled and said to Jiang Ning, "Revered Master, do I look good? Do you want to come and have a feel?"

Jiang Ning turned his head away.

He gritted his teeth and said, "How improper!"

Shen Jinhuan's face darkened. "Second Huan, if you don't want to stay out here, then go back. Why do you keep trying to seduce Revered Master?"

Second Huan was unyielding.

She glanced at Jiang Ning.

She communicated directly with Shen Jinhuan through their Divine Soul.

"If you don't seduce him, are you just going to wait for him to realize you like him on his own? Dahuan, don't be ridiculous. Jiang Ning is a total blockhead, and he's been taking care of you since you were a little thing.

He's raising you like a daughter now!

If you don't make him realize that you're a woman who can share a bed with him, bear his children, and perform Dual Cultivation, do you believe he might even start asking you if other male cultivators are handsome in the future?"

To rebel against her name, Second Huan didn't call Shen Jinhuan by her name, but called her Shen Da Huan instead.

Shen Jinhuan listened to Second Huan's words.

She fell silent.

Everything Second Huan said made sense, but the matter of seducing Revered Master—that should be her job!

Why should you be the one to do it, Second Huan!

Shen Jinhuan felt that even though she was Second Huan's primary soul, was it really the same? Second Huan had her own independent consciousness.

How was this any different from another woman seducing Jiang Ning right in front of her!

Shen Jinhuan said to Second Huan, "Even so, you can't seduce Revered Master."

Second Huan was a bit bewildered. "Dahuan, I am you, and you are me. Is there really a difference between us? Besides, I'm just a Divine Soul; I can't actually perform Dual Cultivation with Revered Master.

In the end, won't it still be you?"

"Furthermore," Second Huan hugged Shen Jinhuan's waist, "if you were willing to do the seducing, why would I need to bother? I'm only doing this because you have these desires.

When I asked Revered Master to touch me just now, could he even have done it?"

Jiang Ning watched from the side.

One Shen Jinhuan was hugging another Shen Jinhuan.

The two were identical.

One was sultry and the other pure, like twin sisters with different personalities.

It was quite a sight to behold.

"What are you two whispering about?"

Jiang Ning was puzzled.

Shen Jinhuan hastily backed away.

"No... nothing..."

Shen Jinhuan blushed.

What Second Huan said was very useful; she decided to give it a try.

But she was also afraid that if she actually did it, Jiang Ning would look down on her. Shen Jinhuan was torn.

Second Huan added fuel to the fire: "Just go ahead and do it. Given Revered Master's feelings for us, even if you make a mistake, he'll still side with us."

"Really?"

Shen Jinhuan knew that Jiang Ning's principles were quite firm and not easily swayed.

Second Huan smiled, "Just ask him yourself!"

Shen Jinhuan also thought that was a good idea.

She took Jiang Ning's hand and asked softly, "Revered Master, if... I'm just saying if, I made a mistake and someone came looking for trouble, whose side would you be on?"

Jiang Ning didn't even have to think. "I'd definitely be on your side. If they come and it really is your fault, we'll just see if we can talk things out."

Shen Jinhuan's heart felt warm. "What if they refuse to talk and insist on hitting me?"

"Then I'll hit them!"

Jiang Ning said with a smile, "If they don't know what's good for them... in the cultivation world, strength is respected. I'm strong, and I'm willing to be reasonable because I don't think everything needs to be settled with violence. But if reasoning doesn't work, I can adapt to the local customs and accept the law of the jungle."

Shen Jinhuan laughed. "What if you can't beat them?"

Jiang Ning: "Then I'll take you and run!"

Shen Jinhuan covered her mouth and giggled.

Revered Master really was... very good to her.

Inside her mind.

Second Huan, who had been pulled back, sat on the Cocoon with her long legs crossed.

"See? I told you, Revered Master dotes on us. You just need to learn to be a bit more sultry; no man can resist that, especially since we're so beautiful."
