There’s Something Wrong With These Demonic Women!

Su Jingyi held the delicate little wooden comb in her hand, and upon learning that Lu Xun had personally made it for her, she suddenly felt a bit disoriented and even panicked. She looked at the small wooden comb in her hand and then glanced at Lu Xun not far away, dazed.

As one of the strongest cultivators, Su Jingyi never lacked for anything in her surroundings. As long as she was willing to speak up, countless people were ready to offer her gifts. However, the small wooden comb in her hand, although plain and inexpensive, had a somewhat unique quality.

What… what does he mean by this? Is he intentionally teasing me by suddenly giving me a small wooden comb? Or perhaps he doesn't know the significance of giving a woman a wooden comb? It represents affection and desire.

It might be a misunderstanding. No, no, it must be a misunderstanding!

Su Jingyi pursed her lips and suppressed her chaotic emotions. She gazed at Lu Xun, Miao Fengxian's lover, and questioned with deep emotion, "Why did you suddenly give me this?"

"Why?"

"Why do you need a reason for that?" Lu Xun looked at her with confusion and explained, "Just like how you gave me two Taoist manuals, and I gave you a wooden comb. It doesn't seem to be a problem, right? It's only natural to reciprocate gifts. Compared to the two secret manuals you gave me, my gift is indeed a bit modest."

Is it really just that? Is there no other meaning?

Su Jingyi bit her lips lightly and looked at the delicate wooden comb in her hand. A faint sense of disappointment swept over her. Fairy Su didn't know how to explain the situation, but upon hearing that it was simply a matter of reciprocity, she suddenly felt a bit displeased.

"Oh," Su Jingyi expressionlessly put away the wooden comb and said coldly, "Let's continue with the previous lesson."

Lu Xun stared at her intently and realized that after she heard his explanation, she became even more indifferent than before. He probably understood everything by now. He smiled and said, "Actually, I also had a small intention behind it."

"Is that so?" A barely perceptible flicker of emotion passed through Su Jingyi's eyes. She asked calmly, "What kind of intention do you have?"

"Of course, it's to win your favor. Otherwise, what other intention could I have?" Lu Xun chuckled and said, "As the content of the lessons increases, I'm sure I'll make plenty of mistakes, and I might anger you at times. So, I gave you a wooden comb to make sure you won't lay your hands on me. After all, it's better to be safe than sorry."

Su Jingyi snorted coldly, gently raising her willowy eyebrows. She said, "Do you think a small wooden comb can spare you from punishment? You're thinking too highly of yourself."

"I wanted to give you something valuable, but… but I'm really broke." Lu Xun shrugged helplessly and explained, "I had to make it myself. However, as they say, it's the thought that counts. When you use this wooden comb, it's like I'm standing behind you, personally combing your hair."

Who asked you to comb my hair? What would a clumsy man like you know about combing hair?

Su Jingyi pouted and asked indifferently, "Does your demoness know about this? Does she know that you secretly made a wooden comb and then secretly gave it to me?"

"You keep saying ‘secretly,' so she definitely shouldn't know about it," Lu Xun replied with a playful smile. "Otherwise, the two of you will start fighting again. The problem is, when you two fight, it's not like common women tearing at each other's clothes, it's more like the end of the world. It's not just violent but also affects the surrounding ecological environment."

"Hmph!"

"Ask your demoness!" Su Jingyi retorted coldly. "It's always her who starts the fight, and I'm forced to fight back."

"One hand can't clap alone. In my eyes, both of you have issues," Lu Xun said with irritation. "Can't you two coexist peacefully? Do you always have to create a life-or-death situation, sometimes you should sit down for a serious discussion."

"Some things, you wouldn't understand," Su Jingyi replied casually.

"Tch."

"What's there not to understand?" Lu Xun shrugged and laughed sarcastically. "Both of you complement each other. Because of your existence, my wife's notorious reputation is even more widely known, and because of her existence, you become even more valuable."

Speaking of this, Lu Xun paused and continued, "Actually, my wife is more important to you. Without her, you would be the next Miao Fengxian. In this world, we can do without heroes, but we absolutely cannot do without villains, especially from the perspective of the court. If there were no villains, no real villains, many issues would remain uncovered."

Although Su Jingyi didn't want to admit it, the fact was as he said, both she and Miao Fengxian were aware of it. She narrowed her eyes and asked calmly, "Did she tell you this?"

"No, I just felt it myself."

"If there were no villains, who would be the heroes? Heroes need villains to prove themselves," Lu Xun replied softly. "I used to think that those demons and monsters were inherently evil, and there was no need for any reason to directly kill them. But since I met my wife, I suddenly realized that demons and monsters are not necessarily evil."

"Just…" Lu Xun hesitated for a moment, waved his hand, and smiled. "Let's leave it at that."

Su Jingyi frowned but didn't press him to continue. She said calmly, "Today, I'll teach you two formations, just like last time. If you can't answer my questions, don't blame me for using the whip on you."

"…"

"After you accepted my wooden comb, the whip is still relevant?" Lu Xun asked cautiously.

"Of course!" Su Jingyi replied coldly.

Although the process of learning formations was tedious, it was also quite pleasing to the eye.

Lu Xun stood beside Su Jingyi, listening to her explanations about the details of the current formation. His peripheral vision secretly watched her, and from this angle, the distinct and well-defined contours of her figure seemed even more pronounced, making him wonder what kind of body was hidden beneath this elegant Taoist robe.

"That's about it," Su Jingyi said as she took out two bamboo tubes from her sleeve, tossing one to Lu Xun. She opened the cap of the other and took a sip of the sweet dew inside.

So self-aware?

Lu Xun happily unscrewed the bamboo cap as well and drank the sweet dew inside in big gulps.

Watching him gulp down the liquid like an ox drinking water, Su Jingyi couldn't help but recall the scenes of him and Miao Fengxian licking each other, and the robust and sturdy body. The sides of her cheeks blushed slightly, and a faint sense of shame welled up within her.

Birds of a feather flock together.

Su Jingyi bit her lip, thinking of how they had done such a shameless thing in broad daylight. She was embarrassed beyond belief.

"Here."

Lu Xun took out a few mountain plums from his pocket and handed the two reddest ones to Su Jingyi.

She looked at the bright red mountain plums in her hand, then glanced at the green ones in his other hand. A strange emotion welled up within her, and she couldn't quite define it. Perhaps there was a hint of being touched hidden in her feelings.

"Give me one of the green ones," Su Jingyi said coldly.

"No, I like the green ones," Lu Xun shook his head and earnestly said. "I don't like the red ones."

Su Jingyi pursed her lips, accepted the bright red mountain plum he handed her, and brought it to her mouth. With elegance, she took a small bite. The flesh of the mountain plum was tender and juicy, with a subtle sweet and sour taste.

Out of the corner of her eye, she stole a glance at him. As he tasted the green plum, his face contorted in a mix of sourness and discomfort. He pretended to enjoy it, making a ridiculous face. Su Jingyi couldn't help but let out a faint, amused smile at his comical expression. It was funny how both he and the demoness were alike, always trying to save face.

Su Jingyi took another bite, looking at the towering mountains and hills in the distance. Her mind began to wander. Was this how women found happiness? Especially when they had a mischievous and playful partner.

Gradually, Su Jingyi seemed to find an answer. If there were two men in front of her, one a refined and gentle scholar and the other a mischievous and shameless person, she would probably choose…

"Fairy Su?"

A voice interrupted her thoughts. She turned her cold eyes towards him and asked indifferently, "What is it?"

"Um…"

"I'll get two green ones. Can I have a red one instead?" Lu Xun asked awkwardly and politely.

Hearing his words, Su Jingyi couldn't help but burst into laughter. Her smile was filled with charm and tenderness, almost stealing Lu Xun's soul.

Realizing she had lost control of herself, Su Jingyi quickly composed her emotions and coldly tossed the red mountain plum to him. At the same time, she turned her head away, gazing at the distant mountains. A faint blush appeared on her cool and beautiful face.

"Fairy Su," Lu Xun said, chewing on the sweet and delicious mountain plum. He looked at Su Jingyi beside him and smiled, "You actually look very beautiful when you smile. Why do you always have a poker face?"

Su Jingyi's heart was filled with ripples as she bit her lower lip gently. She casually said, "Whether I look good when I smile or not, what does it have to do with you? And about what you just said, if your wife finds out, I think you'll be in big trouble."

Lu Xun smiled awkwardly and didn't say much. He continued eating the mountain plum, stealing glances at Su Jingyi from time to time.

The gentle breeze brushed past their ears, lifting Su Jingyi's beautiful hair and her Taoist robe. She looked like a fairy in a dream, showcasing her slender, graceful, and elegant figure.

At this moment, Su Jingyi's mood underwent a subtle change. Although she didn't want to admit it, the fact was…

He's making me feel a little overwhelmed.
