Chapter 494: Nourish the Golden Core Once More!

Nangong Mili instinctively wanted to say it was better not to meet.

But upon hearing ‘High-Tier Golden Core’, her jade-like face paused, lightly biting her vibrant red lips.

Saying she didn’t want to nourish her Golden Core was naturally impossible.

Currently, with her foundation and talent, breaking through to the late stage of Golden Core Formation on her own was still conceivable.

But advancing to Nascent Soul seemed incredibly unlikely.

With Lu Changsheng’s help, if she could advance to a High-Tier Golden Core or even the Immortal Golden Core, then Nascent Soul would no longer be so distant.

Moreover, advancing to a High-Tier Golden Core would enhance her foundation and potential, aiding her in daily cultivation and small breakthroughs.

“Mili, I’m not asking you to abandon the Five Poison Sect to come with me to the Jiang Kingdom.”

Seeing a flicker of interest in Nangong Mili’s eyes, Lu Changsheng gently continued, “But you also understand, nourishing the Golden Core takes considerable time.”

“I’ve been out here for quite a while, and there are matters back home that need my attention. Otherwise, I’d stay with you in Jin Kingdom indefinitely.”

Seeing his affectionate gaze melted Nangong Mili’s heart, even though she knew this scoundrel was playing his usual tricks, she couldn’t help but feel a slight flutter.

However, with her stubborn, cold demeanor, she retorted, “Lu Changsheng, I won’t fall for your tricks!”

“Oh, so Mili still prefers when I’m a bit more forceful.”

Lu Changsheng raised an eyebrow and, looking at her enchanting beauty, softly chuckled, “If that’s what Mili likes…”

He leaning forward, wrapping his arms around her slender waist, pulling her ample chest tightly against his.

Nangong Mili was puzzled: “???”

“Get off me, you… mmm~”

Nangong Mili’s angry and embarrassed voice trailed off.

Before she could finish, her vibrant red lips, like flower petals, were sealed.

A familiar, oppressive, and dominating invasion surged forth.

Nangong Mili’s delicate body slightly softened.

If this had been earlier, she would have resisted with all her might and pushed Lu Changsheng away.

Now, whether due to familiarity, knowing resistance was futile, or seeing his injuries, she only half-heartedly resisted for a moment before a soft, woozy hum escaped her lips.

After a long while, Nangong Mili, realizing how he was taking advantage, suddenly came to her senses and with a slightly annoyed and embarrassed expression, pushed him away.

“Sweet and luscious, endlessly delicious.”

Lu Changsheng licked his lips, lightly smiling. He sensed that she was getting emotionally involved.

But this woman was very prideful, not easily conquered.

“Lu Changsheng, I’m only giving you some face for Yao Yao’s sake, don’t push your luck!”

Nangong Mili’s purple dress was in disarray, her enchanting face blushing like a rosy cloud, stretching to her earlobes, making her look stunningly beautiful.

“As Mili says.”

Lu Changsheng said with a smile.

Then he continued to hold that devilish, fiery figure close, whispering, “Mili, I haven’t nurtured your Golden Core all this time, and now that I’m about to leave, let me nourish your Golden Core one last time.”

“???”

Nangong Mili thought, this man has a thick face, talking about ‘nourishing the Golden Core’, but isn’t this…”

Before she could think further, Lu Changsheng sealed her luscious, glossy red lips with another kiss.

He could clearly feel Nangong Mili’s resistance had eased, only pushing him half-heartedly a few times.

That’s how women are.

If you directly explain, it leads to dislike and rejection.

But if you give a reason, like ‘My cat does backflips’, even though she knows what’s coming, she won’t resist so much.

Sometimes, they even deceive themselves.

Moments later, Nangong Mili’s phoenix eyes shone with a hint of emotion.

Her brows and eyes exuded an irresistible charm, making one’s heart race, impossible to resist, as if about to be submerged in her peerless beauty.

“Not here.”

They were barely 100 miles from the Five Poison Sect.

If a cultivator suddenly passed by, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Hearing this, Lu Changsheng quickly found a temporary cave and set up a formation with Nangong Mili.

“Doesn’t this bastard have a hidden space treasure…?”

Nangong Mili knew Lu Changsheng had a dimensional treasure. They could easily…”

But now, he’s choosing this cave? Is he deliberately humiliating me?

“This bastard!”

Nangong Mili cursed inwardly.

But at this moment, with the current situation, she didn’t say anything, just instinctively avoided his gaze, biting her luscious red lips.

Moments later, the cave was filled with springtime enthusiasm.

Afterward…

Afterward…

Afterward…

Lu Changsheng looked at Nangong Mili lying motionless on the dark golden tiger fur rug.

The famous Heavenly Spider Envoy of the Five Poison Sect, the well-known Heavenly Spider in Jin Kingdom, was now blushing like a rosy cloud, her breath fragrant as orchids, softly gasping for air.

Her long, clear, phoenix-like eyes were half-closed, filled with an enchanting charm.

Her beautiful face, like a poppy blossom, was seductive and breathtaking.

Sweat droplets covered her face, loose hair, fragrant neck, and collarbone.

The purple veil, sticking to her fiery, tempting, flawless jade body, emitted an irresistible allure.

“Mili, don’t you consider coming to live in the Jiang Kingdom with me for some time?”

Lu Changsheng lay beside her, gently patting her snow-white smoothness and softly spoke.

Though he knew she probably wouldn’t return with him.

Still, he truly wanted to nourish her Golden Core.

Mainly because he had free time now.

Once Xiao Xiyue and Lu Miaoge began to break throogh to Golden Core, the Yin-Yang Dual Qi would soon run out.

Nangong Mili’s enchanting phoenix eyes lowered as she trembled slightly, “No.”

This bastard keeps tormenting me all the time.

If I go to the Jiang Kingdom, who knows how much I’d be tormented.

Even though she didn’t reject Lu Changsheng, wanting to upgrade her Golden Core, dropping her dignity and pride was impossible.

“Alright.”

Lu Changsheng smiled without pressing further.

Even though he invited Nangong Mili to Bihu Mountain, he was worried what would happen if she actually agreed.

What if she met Chu Qingyi and they started fighting?

“If anything happens, you can always come to Bihu Mountain to find me. When I have time, I’ll visit Jin Kingdom to check up on you.”

Lu Changsheng’s hand lingered on her soft, voluptuous skin as he spoke gently.

“Mmm.”

Nangong Mili tried to sound calm but her voice was laced with irresistible charm, causing Lu Changsheng to feel a renewed spark for her.

But after exhausting her for so long, it wasn’t wise to torment her further.

So, he merely held her close, savoring the rare calmness.

As Nangong Mili lay in Lu Changsheng’s arms, a strange feeling stirred in her heart.

A sense of safety she had never felt before.

After a while, as she regained some strength, she wanted to get up and push him away.

However, for some reason, she now hesitated to break this rare peace.

And so, time passed slowly.

Both remained in quiet embrace.

Nangong Mili lifted her head slightly, gazing at Lu Changsheng’s handsome face, thinking that if Yaoyao hadn’t gone to the Immortal Lotus Sect, it wouldn’t be bad for the three to live together as a family.

But just moments later, Lu Changsheng began misbehaving again, prompting her to snort coldly, push his hand away, and stand up, her body glowing as she quickly donned a luxurious purple dress.

“Mili’s beauty truly makes me lose control.”

Lu Changsheng, unabashed, openly admired the beauty before him.

“Lu Changsheng, enough with your sweet-talking.”

Nangong Mili huffed coldly, but inside, she felt a mix of joy and pride.

This bastard might have many wives, each divine in their own right, but he’s so obsessed with me.

However, when she thought about how his affection seemed rooted in mere physical desire, she felt annoyed.

“Mili, I truly mean it.”

Lu Changsheng chuckled, unbothered by her attitude.

Women always say one thing but mean another.

“Mili, I have something for you. See if you can refine and control it.”

Lu Changsheng pondered for a moment and then spoke.

“Hmm?”

Nangong Mili perked up, curious and intrigued.

Is this bastard giving me a gift?

“Whoosh—whoosh—”

With a light flick of his fingers, a black corpse bag beside them suddenly opened, unleashing a gust of eerie wind.

A blackened, rigid head with pitch-black eyes, devoid of whites, disheveled hair, and a fearsome grimace appeared.

Recognizing it as an extremely sinister corpse refinement, her jade-like face looked at Lu Changsheng in surprise.

Why did he have such a demonic corpse?

Though the corpse wasn’t entirely intact, just a head.

It only took a glance to realize this was no ordinary creation.

The grotesque blackened face had eyes like black vortexes, capable of ensnaring souls.

Even she was slightly affected just by looking.

For an ordinary early-stage Golden Core cultivator, facing this corpse might lead to instant mental disturbance and downfall.

“This is a corpse I acquired in my early years, called the Ghostly Head from the Netherworld.”

Lu Changsheng introduced the head to Nangong Mili.

From his recent confrontation with Old Demon Zhentian, he realized her combat abilities were lacking.

As a Golden Core mid-stage cultivator, she was neither at the bottom nor the top, just mediocre.

It was rather unworthy of her title as the Heavenly Spider Envoy of the Five Poison Sect.

Thus, he considered gifting this Ghostly Head to her.

On one hand, the Ghostly Head had become less useful to him.

It couldn’t be deployed easily in the Jiang Kingdom.

On the other hand, Nangong Mili’s skills were quite compatible with it.

As a practitioner of Gu control, she relied on ambush tactics, using insects and poisons to wear down the opponent, then seize an opportunity.

With the Ghostly Head, she could use its Netherworld Domain to interfere with and easily overpower enemies.

Also, the Ghostly Head could turn other organisms into ghostly slaves.

Though these slaves wouldn’t retain their previous abilities, their sheer tenacity and brute strength would be a formidable challenge.

With the current Mystical Evil Corpse, refining Old Demon Zhentian into a ghost slave would ensure she wouldn’t fear encountering someone of his level.

“The Ghostly Head from the Netherworld…”

After hearing everything about it, Nangong Mili realized it was even more powerful than she had imagined.

Its sinister abilities could easily disturb the mental state of early-stage Golden Core cultivators and could create a domain of its own.

In this Netherworld Domain, any living creature would gradually be eroded, eventually becoming a ghost slave.

Facing an enemy within the domain would make one practically unbeatable!

“You’re giving me this corpse refinement?”

Although giving a corpse refinement as a gift to a lover might seem crass.

Cultivators, especially those in the magic path, didn’t think that way.

To Nangong Mili, this corpse refinement was invaluable.

If Lu Changsheng offered it to the Heaven Corpse Sect, they’d probably give a fortune to purchase it!

But he was willing to directly give it to her.

“Yes. If you can refine this Ghostly Head, it will offer you significant protection.”

Lu Changsheng’s warm eyes softened as he smiled.

Seeing her hesitate, he gently took her hand and said tenderly, “Please accept it. Otherwise, I won’t be at ease.”

Nangong Mili’s heart trembled, feeling something unexplainable.

“With this Ghostly Head, you could refine Old Demon Zhentian into a ghostly slave. Then, as long as it’s not a Late-Stage Golden Core cultivator, you’ll have nothing to fear, and I’d feel much more at ease.”

Lu Changsheng gently pinched her smooth, rosy face.

Nangong Mili’s beautiful phoenix eyes flowed like a river as she looked at him—his tall, godlike figure, unmatched handsomeness—and her heart paused for a beat.

This bastard might be a righteous cultivator, but he had such a terrifying corpse refinement in his possession.

And speaking so calmly and nonchalantly about refining Old Demon Zhentian into a ghost slave…

Now it seemed this bastard wasn’t entirely…

Bah, this bastard was never a good person!

But his words did fill Nangong Mili’s heart with a strange, comforting sensation. With a smile, she responded, “Alright.”

It was the first time Lu Changsheng had seen her smile at him, and truly, her smile was so beguiling it was as if a thousand beauties had blossomed.

Immediately, he seized her rosy lips like a storm, hungrily savoring her sweetness, wanting to consume her completely.

Her delicate body quivered, instinctively trying to push him away.

But as time passed, her delicate arms wrapped around his shoulders.

In that cave, a strange and eerie scene unfolded.

A tall, godlike youth held in embrace a stunning, seductive woman. The scene was picturesque, like a painting.

But beside them was a black, menacing head, its hair swirling violently, unleashing gusts of eerie wind.

After their passionate exchange, Lu Changsheng began helping Nangong Mili refine and control the Ghostly Head.

Though he gifted it to her.

Controlling such a corpse refinement was no simple feat.

A single mistake could result in backlash.

Thankfully, Nangong Mili’s mid-stage Golden Core cultivation allowed her to contain it, albeit barely.

“I need to return for a bit.”

After attempting to refine it, Nangong Mili decided to return to the Five Poison Sect to safely prepare some insects to help her control the Ghostly Head.

Because while she could control it now.

Once the Ghostly Head refined several ghost slaves, it might influence her control, making it difficult to handle.

“Alright.”

Lu Changsheng responded with a smile.

With the Golden-Winged Roc, traveling was much easier, so there was no rush for a few days.

Moreover, after she finished refining the Ghostly Head, he intended to talk about Meng Xiaochan.
