There’s Something Wrong With These Demonic Women!

Chapter 156: Where Is My Little Thief

Chapter 156: Where Is My Little Thief

Under the moonlight, Lu Xun looked at the stunning and mature Daoist nun not far away. He suddenly felt a sense of déjà vu enveloping him, even though she was tightly covered from head to toe. He could faintly sense her graceful presence. If he wasn't mistaken, wasn't this the mature and voluptuous woman from his dream?

Although he couldn't see her face, the body he had seen in his dream was exactly the same as the one possessed by the mature Daoist nun before him, except that in his dream, she wore an elegant white dress, while now she wore a simple Daoist robe.

What's going on?

How can I meet the woman from my dream? Could it be that Sister lied to me? Maybe I wasn't dreaming that day, and I was actually knocked unconscious by the big demoness.

"Who are you? How can you control my flying sword, and why did you bring me here?" Lu Xun cautiously asked, keeping his gaze fixed on the stunning Daoist nun. Despite her cold and indifferent expression, it was unable to fully suppress her innate allure. She possessed the elegance of a mature woman, as well as a touch of nobility. She was truly a rare beauty.

If Immortal Miao Feng was a mature woman with a touch of allure, like an enchanting seductress, then this stunning Daoist nun before him was the opposite extreme. She was just as mature, just as full of charm, but she had an ethereal quality, like a celestial being who had descended to the mortal realm, radiating a sacred aura.

"I am Su Jingyi," the stunning Daoist nun replied calmly. "Your flying sword was given by me to your wife, Miao Feng. As for why I brought you here, it's simply to tell you a few things."

Su Jingyi!

The renowned Immortal Su Jingyi of this world!

Lu Xun suddenly froze, his eyes filled with astonishment and an expression of disbelief. He had long heard of the famous Immortal Su Jingyi, but he had never seen her in person. He never expected that she would appear before him tonight.

She… Is she really the renowned Immortal Su Jingyi? No wonder the big demoness was so wary of her. No wonder I fainted that day. She must have knocked me out. I thought I was dreaming, but it turns out that I encountered a fairy…

"Oh," Lu Xun replied. If it were anyone else who had encountered Su Jingyi, they would have been paralyzed with fear on the spot. But Lu Xun was different. When facing Su Jingyi, he didn't show any signs of panic. After all, he had already gained control over Immortal Miao Feng, who was equally famous as Su Jingyi, they have all been figured out by him. Of course, he could only guess her temperament and didn't know her personally.

Seeing the calm and composed Lu Xun, Su Jingyi's eyes flashed with surprise for a moment but quickly returned to their usual state. Upon careful consideration, it wasn't a big deal. After all, his wife was a thousand-year-old demoness, and he wouldn't feel much pressure when facing someone like herself.

"Did Miao Feng tell you about the task of killing the imperial court's chief alchemist?" Su Jingyi asked casually.

"Yes, she did," Lu Xun nodded and replied, "She wants me to kill the half-step Seventh realm alchemist, and it seems like I'm the only one who can do it. But I feel that this task is…"

"Dangerous, isn't it?" Su Jingyi raised her eyebrows slightly, and her beautiful face showed a hint of disdain. "If she taught you, it would indeed be a life-or-death situation. She doesn't really know anything; she's just older."

Hiss. Indeed, you're Su Jingyi!

Hearing these words from Immortal Su Jingyi, Lu Xun couldn't help but feel a cold sweat. If someone else had said this, the big demoness would probably have turned them into ashes. It seemed that there was a lot of tension between the big demoness and Su Jingyi.

"Has she taught you anything?" Su Jingyi asked.

"Not yet," Lu Xun shook his head and casually said, "But she will in the future."

"Still in the future?"

"I feel like her heart isn't really in it," Su Jingyi said indifferently. "Let me teach you. I know many details about the imperial alchemist, and I'll tell you exactly how to deal with him."

".."

"Why are you helping me?" Lu Xun asked. Despite Su Jingyi's beauty and maturity, he didn't let his guard down. He looked at the curvaceous Daoist nun and asked seriously, "You and my wife are mortal enemies, and I'm your enemy's husband. Normally, we should be full of hatred for each other. It makes me uneasy that you're helping me so wholeheartedly."

"Because I asked your wife to kill that alchemist for me," Su Jingyi replied. "And one more thing, my relationship with your wife is more complex than you imagine. Sometimes we engage in conflict, and other times we confide our inner thoughts to each other. We're like friends and enemies at the same time."

Ah, so they dislike each other but are actually close friends.

Lu Xun wasn't surprised to hear about this complex relationship. When he thought about it, it made sense. In this world, apart from him, who else could have heart-to-heart conversations with the big demoness?

"Maybe I shouldn't ask, but I'm curious," Lu Xun pursed his lips and asked with interest, "The Emperor wants to extend his life, and the alchemist offers a method to do so. This matter seems to be an internal affair of the royal family. You shouldn't be involved in such things, right?"

Su Jingyi remained silent for a while before answering softly, "Those two princesses were my former students. Yueyan and Qiuyu lost their mother at a young age, and sometimes, I play the role of a mother to them. Besides the teacher-student relationship, there is also a hint of a mother-daughter bond. So, I can't just let the two of them die."

I know Yueyan, but who is Qiuyu? Is she her sister? Oh, that woman who was dressed as a charming young master, that should be her.

Lu Xun nodded and said casually, "I see. But…"

He paused and said with a heavy heart, "Let's forget about the teaching part. I trust my wife's abilities; she won't harm me. Besides, if she finds out I'm receiving instruction from you in secret, I'm afraid she'll skin me alive."

"Hmph," Su Jingyi snorted coldly. "I'll protect you, don't worry."

You'll protect me?

Can you protect me all the way to the bedroom?

Lu Xun rolled his eyes and said, "This isn't a matter of protection or not; it's…"

"Don't say so much."

"If you want to stay alive, you'd better agree. I'll teach you how to use the mystical arts." Su Jingyi curled her lips and said softly, "Your wife doesn't understand these things; she's just a tough woman, relying on her thousand years of cultivation to roam this world. But you, at the mere Late Heaven Realm, without the methods I teach you to deal with the alchemist at the half-step Seventh realm, you'll most likely not survive."

Oh, that sounds reasonable.

Lu Xun hesitated for a moment and asked cautiously, "Speaking of which, why don't you go and kill him?"

"He has a trace of dragon energy on him, and I can't harm someone with dragon aura," Su Jingyi replied. "Especially given my special identity, it's even more impossible."

Ah?

"Is this dragon aura really that powerful?" Lu Xun asked in confusion.

"Dragon aura is the aura of the highest authority and dominance. Anyone who kills someone with a dragon aura will incur the wrath of the heavens. Lightly, their cultivation will be abolished, and severely, they'll lose their life," Su Jingyi explained lightly. "However, it's not invincible; dragon aura also has many drawbacks. Most of those who possess it have very short lifespans, typically living to a maximum of forty or fifty, even that is considered rare."

Pausing for a moment, Su Jingyi continued, "But you have a pure yang body and are unaffected by dragon aura, so you are very suitable for this."

Unlucky me, Lu Xun sighed inwardly, reflecting on the hardships of life.

Amidst his inner melancholy, he continued to assess the stunning Daoist nun before him. Even in the soft moonlight, her skin glowed with an ethereal fairness, rivaling the purest snow. Her eyes were like pure and clear water, captivating yet also imposing. There was an air of cold nobility between her brows. Although her loose Daoist robe seemed a bit oversized, it couldn't hide the alluring curves underneath.

He originally thought that the big demoness was the pinnacle in this world, but he didn't expect someone else to be equally exquisite.

At this moment, Su Jingyi walked over gracefully, her steps swaying like a dance.

"Take this." She took out a bronze mirror and threw it to the man in front of her, saying lightly, "This is a spiritual communication mirror. As long as you write on the mirror's surface, I will know, and likewise, you will receive my messages."

Another mirror?

Lu Xun already had a spiritual mirror that he used to communicate with Zhao Yueyan. Now he had received a second one, but fortunately, these two spiritual mirrors were somewhat different, preventing any confusion.

"If you can find some free time, come and find me. I'll teach you the methods," Su Jingyi said nonchalantly.

"Let's talk about it later."

"My wife keeps a tight rein on me; opportunities like this are scarce," Lu Xun put away the mirror and looked at the mature beauty in front of him. He said with a wry smile, "By the way, you're really daring. What if my wife were to come now? What would you do?"

"I'm not afraid of her," Su Jingyi hesitated for a moment and asked casually, "What about her?"

"She's asleep," Lu Xun replied.

"You helped her fall asleep?" Su Jingyi inquired further.

???

Lu Xun was filled with question marks. What did she mean? It felt like there was an underlying message in her words.

Meanwhile, Immortal Miao Feng woke up from her dream. When she opened her eyes, she suddenly felt a strong emptiness.

"Little thief?"

"Lu Xun!"

The big demoness called out a few times but didn't get a response. She couldn't help but frown and mumble, "Where is my little thief? Where did he run off to?"

She closed her eyes and used her consciousness to search the area for several miles but didn't find his figure.

Then, using a special mark she had left on him, she realized Lu Xun was in a place so far away.

"This is wrong!"

"It seems like there's a woman with him!"
