Book 5: Chapter 31: The Second Request

Without Bai Qiuran’s words, Su Xiangxue had already begun to copy the map on the wall.

Because it was made of light, the map couldn’t be copied directly. But this was not a difficult task for Su Xiangxue, who excelled at music, chess, calligraphy, and drawing. Soon, she used hand-painted methods to meticulously draw the map displayed on the stone wall.

After collecting the map, Bai Qiuran, Su Xiangxue, and Wise Immortal checked the underground palace again. Except for the underground tomb which contained the coffin of the first Demon Emperor that connected to another space was a bit interesting, the other things weren’t worth noting.

There was also the giant head of a white and bodiless crocodile in the crypt. It should have belonged to the White Crocodile King. It seemed that among the four demon kings of the Western Demon Realm, only the Black Snake King remained. At present, he was the most miserable among the three powers of the Demon Realm. He has become a commander without a single soldier. It was thought that he could only shrink in a corner for the rest of his days, and only be a diplomatic Demon King.

After wandering around for a while, Bai Qiuran returned to the tomb where the exercises were stored and then raised his hand, smashing the stone tablet that held the records of the two exercises of the first Demon Emperor’s “Nine Turns Tyrannical Dragon Technique” and “Ascend Dragon Gate” into powder.

“I can’t leave this to them,” Bai Qiuran walked to the map, stretched out his hand to touch it, and after hesitating for a moment, put down his palm again.

“Just forget about this mural, anyway, even if the demon race sees it, they’re currently powerless to explore the land of the gods.”

“It feels a pity to destroy these historical things like this”, Wise Immortal suggested.

“Fine.”

Bai Qiuran then asked Su Xiangxue to collect the records of both exercises as he wanted to bring them back to the human world for translation. He waited until the Splashing Ink Immortal Painting that was outside had absorbed the energy of the demon emperor’s corpse, collecting the magic weapon and finally leaving with Su Xiangxue, embarking on the journey back.

Because of the fierce battle before, the boat that the pair had traveled on, along with the boats of three demon kings, were all destroyed in the aftermath of the battle and turned into wooden boards floating on the sea. Even the small island which before had been in the air, raised by the first Demon Emperor, had sunk to the bottom of the sea after losing the force that had held it float. Losing their vehicle, Bai Qiuran had to sit behind Su Xiangxue as they flew back on her magic weapon to the coast of the Demon Realm.

So the leader of the Kamasutra Sect happily took out a white feather coat and deliberately changed it to the size just large enough for two people to ride in tandem. Bai Qiuran sat in the back like riding a motorcycle, hugging her waist. On the road, she repeatedly asked Bai Qiuran to hug her tighter.

On the way home, she deliberately took the long path. Originally, the first Demon Emperor’s Mausoleum was south of the Cang Sea, and walking straight back to the Demon Realm would naturally go back to the southern coast. However, Su Xiangxue took Bai Qiuran around, ending up on the shore of a city that sat up far north whose port wasn’t frozen over with ice.

In the end though, probably because of Wise Immortal’s intentional (or unintentional) hint, Bai Qiuran didn’t say anything, pretending not to notice. Although he didn’t quite understand why she had taken this route, Su Xiangxue seemed to be in a good mood. Coupled with the fact that he’d successfully found the place of the gods, he just didn’t mention it.

Having nothing to do in the Demon Realm, Bai Qiuran and Su Xiangxue returned directly to the Nine Provinces and Ten Lands. Originally, he was going to return to the Qingming Sword Sect right away to see if his disciple had broken through the Golden Core Stage or not.

However, Su Xiangxue forced Bai Qiuran to live under Kamasutra Sect for a while, on the grounds that she needed Wise Immortal to help her translate the exercises.

During this period, Wise Immortal quickly translated the two exercises that Su Xiangxue had brought back into human characters. Su Xiangxue also gave Bai Qiuran a copy, so that he could bring it back to the library of Qingming Sword Sect in the future.

In the following days, Bai Qiuran and Wise Immortal used Su Xiangxue’s ideas, combining the Ascend Dragon Gate and Nine Turns Tyrannical Dragon Technique to make the most suitable method for her.

Su Xiangxue did not want to give up her identity as a member of the human race, but after practicing Nine Turns Tyrannical Dragon Technique and Ascend Dragon Gate, her body would irreversibly evolve into a demon, so with the help of Bai Qiuran and Wise Immortal, she practiced a technique called ‘to create a clone’, transferring all the blood of the demon race from her body to that body.

This body was a pure demon body and was used by Su Xiangxue to practice the Nine Turns Tyrannical Dragon Technique and Ascend Dragon Gate, while her human body was still dedicated to practicing the Phantom Charm technique.

Although it’s difficult for one person’s soul to manipulate two bodies at the same time, Wise Immortal explained the mysterious method that his apprentice – the prince of the Sacred Dynasty – had cultivated. After Bai Qiuran reformed the technique, he successfully solved the problem.

Su Xiangxue’s soul was still in her body, but she could separate a part to manipulate the demon body.

By doing it this way, the Sect Master of the Kamasutra Sect had something equivalent to having two bodies, and her strength was doubled.

After finishing all of these tasks, he rested there for a few days. Finally, Tang Ruowei, who had already left the closed-door cultivation, came to his room.

“Master.”

The flat apprentice who hadn’t seen him for a long time stood in front of him with her arms akimbo. She tilted her head and asked:

“When will you go back to Seven Stars Peak?”

“Oh, Ruowei, you are here.”

Bai Qiuran raised his head and glanced, curling his eyebrows.

“Tch, you managed to break through the Golden Core…”

“Is this the face that the master should have after seeing his disciple break through another level?”

Tang Ruowei said helplessly:

“I don’t want to come to disturb you and Sect Master Su, but Jue Yunzi came to see me a few days ago. He was afraid that you would be abducted by Sect Master Su and become the Uncle Ancestor of the Kamasutra Sect. So he wants me to tell you that it’s okay to live here, but at least occasionally you have to go back and show up or something so that they won’t be afraid.”

“That’s it… Okay, I’ll go back and clear them up.”

Bai Qiuran stood.

“Let’s go,” he said

“Master,” Tang Ruowei stopped him, reminding him.

“Weren’t you going to inform Sect Master Su alone?”

“She should be dealing with some businesses now…”

“It’s also good for you to go, trust me.”

So after Tang Ruowei’s push, Bai Qiuran successfully found Su Xiangxue, who was working in the master’s study room.

Before the trip, she threw all the affairs to her apprentice and then ran with Bai Qiuran for a while. After coming back, You Meiqiao immediately returned all the affairs in hand to her master.

When Bai Qiuran found her, Su Xiangxue was dealing with the piles of sect official affairs while mumbling something about the disciples not being filial.

“What? Are you going back?”

After hearing Bai Qiuran’s intention, Su Xiangxue’s face was full of reluctance, but she was a general-minded woman, so she didn’t hold back her thoughts.

“Well, then I’m afraid I will have to retreat to practice the External Incarnation and Ascend Dragon Gate for some time… If you need help with anything, you can ask Mei Qiao.”

“Well, thank you very much.”

“Between you and me, there is no need to say thanks… but, I wanted to ask you one more thing.”

Su Xiangxue stopped Bai Qiuran who was about to leave and stood up.

With her hands behind her back, she came to Bai Qiuran, getting close to his face.

“Do you remember when I asked you to agree to three requests of mine?” she asked.

“Of course I do.”

Smelling the delicate fragrance on her body, Bai Qiuran stepped back slightly and touched his nose.

“What? Are you making a request now?”

“Yes.”

Su Xiangxue nodded, and suddenly stretched out her hands.

“Hug me,” she said.

Bai Qiuran hesitated for a moment, but slowly stretched out his hand and wrapped his arms around Su Xiangxue’s waist.

The warm fragrance of the body in his arms made him feel something stir in him. This seemed to be the first time in his more than three thousand years of life that he had actively approached a woman without a killing intent.

While feeling emotional, suddenly, a scent of fragrant wind approached, and Su Xiangxue’s lips were already lightly printed on his mouth.

The old virgin’s body instantly stiffened, and Su Xiangxue stiffly wrapped her arms around his shoulders, keeping him there.

After a while, the Sect Master of the Kamasutra Sect retreated slightly, smiled somewhat sullen., She pinched a strand of hair on his temples.

“Farewell,” she said softly.
