One person: I, Daoist Master, am a cultivator of immortality!

"Are you awake or not? If you're not, I won't be so polite!"

Sun Yao slowly approached Yue Qiluo, but Yue Qiluo seemed to be fast asleep, not even her eyelashes twitching. Although Yue Qiluo appeared unresponsive, Sun Yao knew perfectly well that she was definitely awake.

"Looks like you're determined not to wake up, then don't blame me." After saying that, Sun Yao swiftly touched Yue Qiluo's lips. The next second, Yue Qiluo's eyes widened. Even though she was a female demon who had been around for hundreds of years, she had never encountered anything like this before.

A hundred years ago, she possessed Yue Qiluo, wanting Duan Sanlang to fall in love with her. However, Duan Sanlang refused, so she manipulated him into hanging himself, staging a dramatic suicide pact. This also proves that she didn't understand love; not understanding love meant she had never experienced it. Sun Yao's sudden kiss broke down her defenses, which is why she stared wide-eyed at the man who had taken liberties with her.

"See, I told you you were definitely awake. Now, let's see if you're still pretending to be asleep." Sun Yao grinned mischievously and said in a cheeky tone.

"Go to hell, you lecher!"

Hearing Sun Yao's teasing words, Yue Qiluo's face instantly turned red. She was inexperienced in matters of love, but that didn't mean she was unaware of the implications of Sun Yao's actions. Even if she hadn't experienced it herself, she'd seen it happen; Sun Yao had clearly taken liberties with her. Although she wasn't an ordinary woman who cared much about her reputation, that didn't mean she would tolerate such behavior.

A flash of red light appeared in Yue Qiluo's hand, and the next second Sun Yao was sent flying backward. With a loud bang, Sun Yao slammed into the wall of the secret chamber. Although the impact kicked up a cloud of dust, when the dust settled, he appeared before Yue Qiluo in a golden light. That's right, the instant Yue Qiluo opened her eyes, he had already secretly activated the Golden Light Spell. He knew that doing this would definitely get him beaten, but how else could he provoke Yue Qiluo?

"So you're a cultivator after all? Have you thought about how you're going to die?!"

"Stop talking about death all the time, Yue Qiluo. Didn't you want to experience human love and find a husband a hundred years ago? Duan Sanlang didn't know what you were worth and didn't want you. What am I supposed to do?"

Based solely on Yue Qiluo's furious attack just now, Sun Yao had already sensed her true level of cultivation. Yue Qiluo's strength was roughly equivalent to the late-stage Qi Refining realm, or even just the peak of the mid-stage Qi Refining realm. She certainly had many methods, but they weren't powerful enough.

Even her furious attack just now failed to break through Sun Yao's golden light spell. It's conceivable that even a full-force attack might not be enough to defeat Sun Yao.

Just as Sun Yao was pondering how to deal with Yue Qiluo, her attacks suddenly ceased. The red light flashing on her hands also stopped abruptly; she seemed to be genuinely considering Sun Yao's suggestion.

Sun Yao was stunned by her expression. He had only joked around a bit; had she taken it seriously? But if she was serious, should he agree? Thinking about it carefully, Yue Qiluo had comprehended the so-called method of immortality of the soul without any guidance; such talent alone was enough to make her worthy of him. Besides, he had high hopes for Yue Qiluo; perhaps developing a relationship with her really could work?

"You said it yourself, so from this day forward, you are my husband. But you haven't told me your name yet, my little husband."

Yue Qiluo's voice turned seductive, and after hearing just a few words, Sun Yao felt his whole body start to tingle. Her voice was incredibly alluring, and considering that Yue Qiluo was quite young when she was sealed away—around fifteen or sixteen years old—she still had a childlike voice. Sun Yao simply couldn't resist.

“My name is Sun Yao. I’m an orphan. I have three masters: Chu Feng of the Huode Sect, Zuo Ruotong of the Sanyi Sect, and Zhang Jingqing of Longhu Mountain. In other words, I inherit the skills of three sects and have learned them from the Huode Sect, the Sanyi Sect, and Longhu Mountain.”

"Sun Yao, is that the 'Yao' in 'bring glory to one's ancestors'? That's a good name. From now on, should I call you Sun Lang, or Yao Lang?"

"I don't think either of these nicknames is very good. You might as well just call me A-Yao." Sun Yao was clearly indifferent to both nicknames.

"Now that I've introduced myself, shouldn't you introduce yourself too, Yue Qiluo?"

"What's there for me to introduce? Don't you already know everything? Otherwise, why would you open this cave and lift the coffin lid just to let me out?"

"Of course I know your life story, but since we're getting married, it's best if we introduce ourselves."

"Alright, my name is Yue Qiluo. I am a disciple of Qingyun Temple, and of course, I have also learned some evil techniques. There's something I need to tell you beforehand: although my soul is immortal, my body is not. So I need to constantly absorb energy to ensure the survival of this body, and the way I absorb energy..."

"No need to say anything, I know. It's just people, right? This era has never lacked people, but people are divided into good and bad, aren't they? Besides, regarding your physical body problem, I seem to have a way to solve it." Sun Yao certainly knew what Yue Qiluo meant by absorbing energy. In the first part of Wu Xin: The Monster Killer, she absorbed the life essence of many people. And the snake demon in the manor could also absorb life essence. It seems that absorbing human life essence has become an essential method for demons, even though Yue Qiluo was a half-demon who had transformed from a human.

"What! You really have a way to solve my physical problems?!"

Sun Yao's words nearly made Yue Qiluo jump. This reaction was far more intense than when Sun Yao had just kissed her. It seemed that Yue Qiluo valued the Dao more than purity.

“I am a disciple of the Sanyi Sect, you should have heard of this sect.”

"Well, it is said that the Sanyi Sect was established a thousand years ago. The technique they cultivate is the Reverse Life Triple Stage. After reaching the third stage, one can reverse one's innate nature and transform oneself into Qi. It is an extremely rare technique. It's a pity that I never had the chance to meet them. I wanted to go and explore it, but before I could do anything, my master, that old geezer, sealed it away."

"The path to the Threefold Reversal of Life has been severed, but I created the Qi Refining Technique to fill the gap. Most importantly, this Qi Refining Technique has shown me the path to immortality. If you can cultivate the Qi Refining Technique with me, you might also be able to embark on the path to immortality. At that time, each leap to a major realm will be a transformation of your life level, and you will no longer have to worry about problems with your body."
