65: Chapter 65: Super Short Shorts and a Crop Top—Sister Liu Ruyan Should Hehehe!

Just as the three of them were about to enter the small town, Lin Kuang suddenly saw a wide river.

"Huh? Such a big river! Could there be any special water-type Spirit Beast or Spiritual Plant or something?" Yu Xiaotang asked curiously.

Cultivators generally like to gather Materials themselves; not only is it cheaper, but they might also encounter an Opportunity. Besides, Spiritual Plants are a special Material for refining Medicinal Pills, which held a huge attraction for Yu Xiaotang.

"Master, I'll go follow Sister Xiao Tang!"

Ever since Xiao Wu transformed into a human form, it didn't like to be idle and loved to wander around.

"Are you going to stand guard for me?" Lin Kuang asked, cupping his chin.

Lin Kuang was currently preparing to woo Liu Ruyan and needed someone to help him keep an eye on Yu Xiaotang; after all, he didn't know if Yu Xiaotang could accept his particular hobby.

Besides, he always felt that this was very exciting and gave him a different kind of feeling.

"Hurry and follow Yu Xiaotang; if something happens to her, you're done for too! Go quickly!" Lin Kuang urged, watching Yu Xiaotang walk away.

"Your companion is truly full of energy! I was just like her when I was young!" Liu Ruyan said, looking at Yu Xiaotang with envy.

"Oh? Isn't Sister Liu Ruyan in the prime of her 18 years? Not only young and beautiful, but also successful in her career!" Seeing Xiao Wu leave, Lin Kuang started flirting with Liu Ruyan again.

"Hmm—you are suspected of trying to sweet-talk a Law Enforcement Elder of the Cultivation Alliance!" Liu Ruyan said gently.

"Then I must clear myself of suspicion; I was just specifically complimenting your beauty!"

"Sigh! Lin Kuang, it's almost time to get off work, so come shopping with me later! I haven't properly treated myself after working for so long! I'll recommend some supplies for you while we're at it!"

"Sure! Anything Sister Liu recommends must be very useful!" Liu Ruyan didn't treat Lin Kuang as an outsider and brought him to her residence.

While it was called a residence, it was actually more like a large duty room.

She pulled the thin curtain and started changing inside.

The curtain was very short, offering basically no coverage at the bottom. Lin Kuang, sitting outside, saw Liu Ruyan roll down her white lace stockings, revealing her tender, jade-like feet.

Looking higher up, one could also see Liu Ruyan's curvaceous figure through the curtain.

A moment later, Liu Ruyan put on flat-soled high heels, pulled back the curtain, and stepped out. She appeared before Lin Kuang, full of youthful energy, wearing a crop-top short-sleeve shirt and blue shorts that were about to ride up past her thighs.

Her legs were so white and long! Especially with that bunny-girl figure paired with this outfit, it made Lin Kuang's blood boil.

"How is it? Lin Kuang, do I look full of energy?"

"Sister Liu, your figure is amazing!" Lin Kuang gave a thumbs up, using the Yakexi gesture to show his approval! This was also the first time Lin Kuang had seen Law Enforcement Elder Liu Ruyan wear something other than her official uniform.

Mmm! His whole body was responding to Lin Kuang's surging desire to woo her.

"I asked you to look at the clothes, why are you looking at my figure?" Liu Ruyan spun around, looking at her long white legs: "But thank you for the compliment anyway!"

"Let's go shopping!"

While shopping, Lin Kuang intentionally and unintentionally built up affection, but at this current time, the affection level only allowed for incidental skin contact.

He was still some distance away from succeeding.

However, Lin Kuang was just testing the waters today; only after knowing the general situation could he better advance to the next step and know roughly how long it would take to take her down.

Just as they were finishing up their supply purchases, a scream rang out from the crowd.

Everyone scattered and dodged, as if avoiding something.

Lin Kuang looked forward and saw a familiar figure appear in the air; it was his Xiao Wu, but to outsiders, it looked like a golden energy ball, causing great panic.

"Master!"

Upon seeing Lin Kuang, Xiao Wu flew over immediately.

Xiao Wu patted its chest, caught its breath, and then explained the whole story in one go.

"What? You're saying that when Yu Xiaotang was gathering Spiritual Plants in the river, she was surrounded by Crystal Turtles, and then she used the Fengming Sword to fight them, but her weapon was stolen, and she was so angry that she went back to challenge them to a duel!"

"No! I told you to protect her well!"

"But Sister Yu is too stubborn! She insisted on going over."

Although Liu Ruyan couldn't see Xiao Wu, she knew that large Sect Disciples possessed Magic Treasures she had never seen before, so she could only chime in: "That's not right! Yu Xiaotang was tied up? Crystal Turtles only like to play pranks, but there are no records of them attacking!"

"She must have been bewitched by someone; we need to act quickly!"

"Wait! I will absolutely not allow such a thing to happen right under my nose!" Liu Ruyan clenched her fists excitedly and then flew toward the duty room.

"Lin Kuang, I'm going to change clothes; we'll meet on the road in a moment!"

"Okay! Then I'll go ahead and see what the situation is!" Lin Kuang replied to Liu Ruyan and set off first with Xiao Wu.

Halfway there, Liu Ruyan caught up; Lin Kuang had intentionally slowed down to wait for her.

Lin Kuang and Liu Ruyan exchanged a glance, immediately forming a tacit understanding. Liu Ruyan slowed down, and Lin Kuang took a big leap, jumping onto Liu Ruyan's Flying Sword.

After sitting steady, Liu Ruyan took Lin Kuang and Xiao Wu to find Yu Xiaotang.

Under Lin Kuang's guidance, they arrived outside a cave.

At this moment, that huge shield appeared in the sky, and a shadow cut across the sky; it was a specially crafted Flying Sword.

"Oh! It's them again!" Lin Kuang was all too familiar with this—it was The Bandit Duo.

[Ding! Quest triggered: Make the Crystal Turtle leader let go of its hatred and help the other Crystal Turtles find a home.]

[Quest Rewards: Intermediate Spirit Power Pill × 5, Advanced Sword Spirit Upgrade Stone—after use, it can increase the Sword Spirit's loyalty and permanently increase muscle talent (can choose the body part), Liu Ruyan's affection increased by 20.]

This Advanced Sword Spirit Upgrade Stone was, to put it plainly, a Divine Artifact for breast enhancement and hip augmentation.

The overall rewards weren't as good as he had imagined, but it could increase Lianyi's loyalty. Lianyi had been bullied by Xiao Wu all night and still hadn't let slip the essence of the Nine Suns Burning Fire Art to him.

Once her loyalty was increased, she would definitely tell him.

As for Liu Ruyan's affection, it felt more like a bonus.

"By the way! Could The Bandit Duo have given it to their leader? They seem so rich; their entrance methods are always different. They used to ride Spirit Beasts, and now they've gotten hold of a man-made Flying Sword!"

"The Bandit Duo? Are you talking about the ones from the Now You See Me Thieves Guild? Damn! It's them again; this time, we must catch them!"

Lin Kuang suddenly looked up; his Divine Sense had sensed something.

I have to say, with his Divine Sense strength increased by 50%, he felt like he had unlocked Spider-Sense, directly able to perceive danger.

"Sister Liu, stop flying immediately!" Lin Kuang reminded Liu Ruyan at the first Opportunity.

Although Liu Ruyan didn't know what had happened, hearing Lin Kuang's warning, she immediately stopped flying.
