Chapter 89: I had to stay a virgin for so long, damn it!
"How are you doing, Master?"
"Let me guess, you're probably broke by now since you can't heal anyone in the afterlife, haha... you get the joke, right?"
"You can't heal dead people. Get it?"
"...Yeah, it's a bad joke. I know."
"..."n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
"Do you remember the Unity Sword Sect?"
"How silly of me to ask...you obviously remember them. They're the ones who killed you..."
"You're probably worried that I might fall into the hands of those people."
"But you don't need to worry. After all, my genius is almost frightening."
"I already killed them and took my revenge. They died a very, very painful death."
"I know you'd be angry with me for not following your last words."
"But... but I really couldn't stop myself."
"I hated them so much!"
"And not just them! I despise those hypocrites from the Heaven Thwarting Sect and the other two sects. I hate all the high-ranking cultivators on this continent!"
"Not only did they cause your death, but they've been chasing me for years! I can't even take a piss without worrying that some random guy will pop up and attack me just to steal the Sky Poison Pearl."
"Almost everyone was after me, and because of them, I couldn't even get laid...I had to stay a virgin for so long, damn it!"
"Every time I visited a city, I had to constantly worry about someone accidentally discovering my identity. Do you have any idea how hard it is to visit a brothel under those conditions?"
"Nah, you probably don't. After all, you died a virgin, lol."
"You're probably saying something like, 'What do you know, brat?! Women and sex will only slow down the speed at which I diagnose my patients.""
Yun Wuji spoke for a long time as if he were having an ordinary chat with his master. He shared stories about his experiences over the past year, mentioning everything from the new dishes he'd cooked to the interesting women he'd encountered. He even laughed as he recalled the rare herbs he'd found while "accidentally" stumbling into the treasure vaults of a few big sects.
Standing up, Yun Wuji held a teapot, gazing at his master's tomb. "I originally wanted to use wine to honor your grave, but since that's haram, I'll use tea this time."
*Just a joke...*
He lifted the teapot and poured the tea over the tomb, the liquid splashing onto the ground and soaking his shoes and pants. In this place, he didn't bother using his light-energy condom.
Standing in front of his master's grave, his thoughts drifted back to their time together. He remembered the day his master picked him up in the wilderness when he was just a tiny baby, the way he had scolded him for being rude whenever he said strange things. He also recalled the many times when he was a 6-year-old kid, his master had punished him for pretending to heal other women, just to cop a feel.
As expected of a virgin...
And he thought of the last moment when his master had died.
He couldn't help but wonder what happens when people die. Do they just cease to exist? How do others cope with the loss of their loved ones?
In his previous life, his parents had been alive and well, and he had not forgotten about them at that time.
He used to visit them once a month since he lived just a few cities away.
After coming to this world, he honestly missed them quite a bit.
But as he spent more time here, he started to miss them less and less. By now, he could hardly recall their appearances.
Did he still love his parents? Yeah... probably.
Would he do everything in his power to return to his universe to meet them? Nah, he
wouldn't.
Yun Wuji had asked himself these questions many times. At first, he couldn't face himself and answer honestly.
They said that people stop caring about you when you die... Deep down, in a place he didn't want to confront, he realized that to him, his parents had already died the moment he arrived in this world.
But as time passed and he experienced more, he began to accept that idea. He felt that he no longer loved or cared about his parents from his previous life.
Still, this realization scared him even now. Love, affection-nothing could last forever; someday, even the universe would be destroyed. Would there come a day when he might forget about his master and his lovers as well?
"Sigh, I always get emotional around this time," Yun Wuji murmured with a tired sigh. "Eh?" Suddenly, he felt as though he understood something, but as he reached for it, the feeling slipped away, vague and elusive. He had a strong premonition that if he could seize this fleeting insight, it would provide him with immense help in the future. Without a moment's hesitation, he sat down and closed his eyes
...
Swoosh!
Profound energy surged from her like a gale as Xia Qingyue slowly opened her eyes and stood up. She clenched her hand, feeling her newfound strength. An excited smile appeared on her face, she had just broken through to the peak of the Spirit Profound Realm!
"One more step to the Earth Profound Realm," Xia Qingyue murmured as she stepped out of her room, her eyes shining with excitement. In less than half a year, she had ascended from the Nascent Profound Realm to the peak of the Spirit Profound Realm, a feat she would have once thought impossible, beyond even her wildest dreams.
In the novel, it took her 1 year and 7 months to break through from the Peak True Profound Realm to the 3rd level of the Earth Profound Realm.
"I can never repay my master's grace in this life." Her rapid progress had come solely because her master had provided her with the best cultivation environment and resources, nurturing her potential and guiding her every step of the way.
"Master said that if I can break through to the Earth Profound Realm soon, he'll give me the Emperor Awakening Heart Pellet. With that, I could advance directly to the Emperor Profound Realm! He even mentioned he could help me reach the Tyrant Profound Realm using something called the 'Overlord Pellet.' Master really is the best!"
As she walked, thoughts of her master filled her mind. When they had returned from the Heavenly Sword Villa, Yun Wuji had told her that if she reached the Earth Profound Realm within the time he set, he would not only gift her the Emperor Awakening Heart Pellet but also personally help her to reach the Tyrant Profound Realm.
The Overlord Pellet is an elixir that originates from the Illusory Demon Realm, refined by the Duke Baoqing Palace. It allows a profound practitioner at the peak of the Emperor Profound Realm the ability to immediately break through to the Tyrant Profound Realm. However, the Duke Baoqing Palace requires an average of fifty years to refine a single pellet. However, with the Sky Poison Pearl, mass production of Overlord Pellets becomes possible. Yun Wuji can refine thousands of them in a very short time.
In the novel, Yun Che utilized five Overlord Pellets to help Murong Qianxue break through from the 8th Level Emperor Profound Realm to the 5th Level Tyrant Profound Realm in just
five hours.
At just 13 years old, if Xia Qingyue were to break through to the Earth Profound Realm and utilize the two pellets, she would become the youngest Overlord in the history of the planet!
Thinking of her master, who always did his best for her, Xia Qingyue felt a giddy flutter in her stomach. "Master, where are you? I miss you~"
Suddenly, she halted in her tracks, her heart racing. She sensed her master's aura nearby! Without a second thought, she bolted forward with all her strength, calling out, "Master!"
"Qingyue? Oh, your aura- you broke through!" Yun Wuji had just returned from the Azure Cloud Continent. He saw Xia Qingyue dashed toward him, her excitement radiating like a bright light, making it impossible for him to miss the joy that sparkled in her eyes.
She dove into his embrace in an anime-style leap, raising her head with an excited voice. "Hmm! I didn't let master's expectations down!" Her face was lit up, practically glowing with
a 'praise me!' expression.
"Right! Qingyue is the greatest genius in the world," Yun Wuji chuckled, giving her a playful pat on the head. He paused for a moment, then added, "After me, of course."
"I knew you would say that! As expected, your narcissism is unrivaled, Master," Xia Qingyue replied with a laugh, shaking her head at his familiar boastfulness.
"Why does everyone think I'm arrogant and narcissistic? I'm just stating facts," Yun Wuji
said, shaking his head helplessly.
"Master, I broke through to the Peak Spirit Profound Realm sooner than the time you set for
me. Will you reward me?" Xia Qingyue took a step back, placing her hands behind her back as
she leaned forward, a playful grin spreading across her face.
"Oh, you want a reward? Sure! What do you want? A heavenly treasure? Immortality? Or maybe the power to stop the Saiyans from destroying the world?" Yun Wuji mused, stroking his chin thoughtfully before finally nodding his head in agreement. "Saiyans? Oh, come on, Master! They're just fictional creatures from the books in your library," Xia Qingyue chuckled then, her expression turned earnest as she continued, "I heard from Senior Murong that you gave her a drop of dragon blood and a body-strengthening technique. I want those too! Can you give them to me?"
'First Chu Yuechan, who liked to share our bedroom secrets, and now Murong Qianxue... why
can't these women keep a secret?!' Yun Wuji held his forehead, feeling a headache coming on as he looked at his disciple's sparkling eyes.
