Chapter 90 Which way is correct?
Wu Long performed the same care for Feng Yi as last time. And after he ensured that she is comfortable, cultivated her Yin Qi. He did not advance, as he was already in the 9th level of the Qi Gathering Realm so it would take a lot more to advance within a Major Realm, not to mention crossing to the next one. But he did raise his cultivation from just having advanced to the 9th level to further within the level.
As he did not advance, it took a lot less time, so after he washed up he just went beside her and embraced her as he also fell asleep.
In the morning Feng Yi woke up feeling very comfortable and warm. The morning cold air was completely fended off by the warmth that was cuddling and enveloping her. There was great comfort in this unfamiliar yet incredible feeling. Once her mind got clearer she realized that she was in Wu Long's embrace and her first instinct was to immediately get up and free herself of it, but she froze as the muscles just began to prepare to move, and then gradually relaxed, listening to her body, studying the sensations and savoring the experience. The last memories before she fell unconscious came to her and the tenderness and love she felt in his movements made her happy. It was an indescribable feeling.
She turned to look at him and saw his kind gaze. It overlapped with the gaze from last night and she slightly blushed. But she quickly got a hold of her feelings and rose from the bed to go to the washroom. She felt a sense of loss as the cold air instantly made contact with her skin when she got out of bed, and the cold wooden tiling of the floor was lonely to the touch.
He silently watched her figure from the back as her gorgeous back and round bouncy ass were not covered by the hair that was all gathered on one shoulder and to the front. Her every step made that juicy peach sway in an enchanting motion as her long and slender legs gracefully moved forward.
As she finished washing up he watched her get clothed, and there was a light in his eyes which told her that she might not be able to leave this house if she does not do it a little faster.
When he got out of the bed she could not help but look at his body, as she was as mesmerized by it as he was by hers. When he got out of the washroom she was already all clothed, and Wu Long started to put on his robes, though it was a lot faster as he did not have an armor to get into.
"Remember what I told you about making her cry yesterday"
She said to him and went to the door.
Feng Yi went outside and a gasp came from the side. When she looked in the direction of the sound she saw Luo Mingyu covering her mouth with both hands, looking at her with round eyes.
There were bodyguards with her as it took a lot of people to guard her when Wu Long was not around. They all also stared at her in shock, and there was a feeling of envy in them when they looked at the door she just came out of while tying her hair into a high ponytail.
"S-sister Feng Yi…"
Luo Mingyu said a little timidly as she was completely flabbergasted by the discovery. She thought Feng Yi didn't like Wu Long from how she normally behaved around him and coldly almost ignored any flirtatious remarks he jokingly made.
"Mingyu…? this … ahem I uh…"
Feng Yi was also not expecting to be caught like this, and the innocent gaze of Luo Mingyu felt itchy to her skin.
"Oh, young lady, you came? How can I help you this early in the morning?"
Wu Long went out behind Feng Yi, seemingly surprised at seeing her despite noticing their presence long before they even remotely approached this area.
Usually, Wu Long would arrive at her living quarters to escort her through the day, but today Luo MIngyu came out a lot earlier than usual as she achieved a new comprehension of the Dao and was impatient to discuss it, so she could not wait and went to him instead.
"I uh…"
Luo Mingyu was still too shocked and she completely forgot why she came here, just staring at them in a daze.
"I…ahem, I have to go to report for duty, I will see you later"
Feng Yi just decided to throw all explanations to Wu Long like a hot potato and her figure disappeared in the distance with a remarkable speed.
Wu Long, on the other hand, was completely calm and innocently looked at Luo Mingyu as she was trying to organize her thoughts.
Wu Long gestured to her, offering to change the place, and she nodded as she could use the time when they walked to make sense of the situation and establish a train of thought.
As they went to the garden that was filled with snow, they arrived at a small wooden teahouse in the garden, that was warm and yet could oversee the snowy garden. As they were served tea by an attendant, Luo Mingyu gradually calmed down and looked at the garden with a pondering look.
"Are you in a relationship with sister Feng Yi?"
She finally asked, not in an inquisitive tone, but just as someone who was curious.
"Yes"
"But you are not even married!"
"Marriage is an ambiguous thing in the cultivation world. Here, in a mortal country, it may be the standard, but cultivators generally do not give much meaning to formal ceremonial events such as a wedding, and the relationships are established between people, so there is no other entity that is required to verify or officialize it through a marriage.
Besides, I am a dual cultivator and have many partners. Feng Yi also knows that I have many women by my side, and she is not fazed by such things, as what matters is if I can make her happy"
"Dual cultivator? But…I heard that is a … a vulgar way, a corrupt Dao… All of my Dao teachers told me that it is flawed…"
She asked with disbelief. She was hesitant to disparage dual cultivation in front of him as he stated he belonged to this path of cultivation, but she tried to clearly express that it was not him she was talking about but Dual Cultivation, as well as that it was simply her knowledge, not her own opinion.
She could not comprehend why someone who was as knowledgeable and had seemingly a profound understanding of the Dao as Wu Long would be involved with such a corrupt practice.
"What you heard is a teaching of a particular school of the Dao. In truth, Dual Cultivation and Dao Cultivation have the same origins, it was a desire for peace and prosperity without struggle. Both methods of cultivation allow one to progress without bloodshed and without requiring many resources to struggle for with others. To go even further, all paths of cultivation lead in one way to enlightenment and longer, and eventually immortal life. It is just that the way to get there is different for everyone. In this regard, Dual Cultivators and Dao Cultivators are just a bit closer to each other than others"
As Wu Long spoke, a new comprehension appeared on Luo Mingyu's face as if she looked from the viewpoint of motives and apirations, there really were a lot of similarities between the two.
"But then why does the teaching in the books I have read and what I heard from my Dao teachers state that Dual Cultivation is corrupt?"
She asked, not being able to understand the paradox.
"The problem stemmed from the fact that a certain part of Dao Cultivators rejected Dual Cultivators at some point as they believed in asceticism and practiced the serenity of the mind, in order to keep their minds clean, and as still as a surface of the mirror upon which they can look at the world and ponder its profundities. This school of thought was very influential and held a certain amount of sway among the Dao Cultivators, and thus this division spread, and Dao Cultivators now generally shun Dual Cultivation, despite their original motives being essentially the same. One side decided to cut off desires to reach ascension, the other decided to indulge in them to reach the same result, but both desired to do so through peaceful means.
Soon, Dual Cultivators found themselves isolated, as the influence of Dao Cultivators is very high, and thus needed the power to protect themselves, therefore picking up martial power to do so, inadvertently distancing themselves from Dao Cultivators even more"
He simply explained, and a new flash of comprehension went through her eyes.
"But then, which path is correct?"
She asked, and he just looked at her. His words, 'the Dao is formless' reverberated through her mind and a profound ripple spread from her as her cultivation realm rose a level once more.
"I see, I understand now. Thank you for your teachings"
She bowed to him, and he simply smiled and congratulated her on her new achievement as they continued to drink tea and talk while looking at a garden covered in snow.
