Chapter 57: Sharks\'ve Sensed the Smell of Blood

As his comprehension was already at the level of the 73rd layer of the technique in his past life, he was already on the 4th layer by the time he was finished. The layers of the technique represented how fast and effective the technique itself was, not how much Spiritual Qi improved with it, so technically there was no limit on how much one could improve Spiritual Qi with each layer.

It mainly relied on comprehension and usage of the technique so he should get to the 9th layer quick enough by adjusting his body to use higher layers of the technique before being limited by his cultivation base. But even if he was stuck on the 9th layer of the technique there would be no impediment to how much he could actually strengthen his Spiritual Qi, and the 9th layer was already considered quite high as most people could not get past the 3rd layer.

When he opened his eyes she was beginning to wake up as well.

"Nnn"

She opened her eyes to see him looking at her with attentive eyes, and she slowly sat up, a bit dazed. Her pleasure was more intense every time they met, and this time it was amplified by the longing her body felt.

She imagined him giving her pleasure over the days they stopped the treatment as she relieved herself. There was a lonely feeling she got when Yin Qi gushed out of her at the end of relieving herself, but she could not ask him to continue the treatment. Now that her integrity was not compromised even if she started a relationship with him, just getting treatment again was not something impossible. But she still could not bring herself to ask him to do something she herself was the reason for being stopped. But, to her surprise, he asked her first and was even persuading her, and the pleasure she felt confirmed that she was indeed starved for his touch.

She stood up and went to the bathroom, feeling his gaze on her, which somehow gave her a tingling feeling in her heart. She bent down and unlocked her shoes, and then while getting up, stepped out of them to the bathroom rug. She then slid her hands under her dress, uncovering the back part of it since there was only one slit down her right side, pinched her tights and underwear, and slid them down around her round and juicy ass and then her long and slender legs. Once they reached her ankles, she lifted one leg up and took them completely off it, and then placed the leg back. She then mirrored the action with her other leg.

This somehow erotic action was all reflected in Wu Long\'s eyes, which made Sui Luxiao a bit excited. She did not get to experience this exciting sensation the last time since she was too exhausted and was unconscious for several hours so he started to cultivate ahead.

As she wiped herself down with a warm wet towel and then a soft dry one, she took out the spare underwear and tights, putting them on exactly in the opposite sequence of taking off the old ones. After that, she started fixing her overall appearance.

She did not notice it, but this action became more sensual than when she made it first as they finished their first session. It also became slightly slower, as if giving time for the scenery to be looked at.

Wu Long liked this scene. He was also a bit disappointed not to see it last time, but there was little he could do. Even with the sealing formation the Yin Qi in the air would very slowly dissipate so he had to cultivate it, and by the time he was done, she was already fully refreshed and changed.

She came out of the bathroom refreshed, and handed him back the spatial ring he left on the sink, then operated the formations in the room from the array on the office desk to clean up the residual signs of what happened here, then unlocked the door and releasing the fortified formations.

As she sat back down, they sat for some time in silence, but not an awkward one. There was a peaceful atmosphere, as she was feeling content, while Wu Long was in his usual tranquil state. Eventually, they started to make small talk, and he asked her a bit more about her plans, telling her that he would help whenever she needed his aid.

"By the way, I did not touch him before, since it was important for you to cast him out of your life by your hand, making him an important step on your journey to the new life, but as his use is done he is now a nuisance. Your former husband, I am going to kill him"

Wu Long said suddenly after they finished one of the topics they talked about. Sui Luxiao opened her eyes wide, as she never expected such words from him.

"W-What? But, he is now a leader of his own trading company, and there are livelihoods dependent on him, moreover, killing him would undermine the Imperial authority, so you would get persecuted for it! Besides, why are you even bothering with that man? He is not worth your time and attention."

She said, a bit flabbergasted.

"Livelihoods will be ruined by him leading a company so I will be doing them a favor, and Imperial authority is not something that will save him. As to why… well, let\'s just say I find him displeasing"

He replied lightly, not bothering to explain anything about him being a threat to her and trying to kill him by hiring assassins. Besides, he really was displeased at the pig who managed to nearly rush such a spectacular woman into an early grave.

Noticing a glint of terror in her eyes, he added "Relax, I will not touch your sons, as when they live in their mountain villas they will not be able to ruin the lives of others, I also do not want to make you sad"

She exhaled, visibly relieved, as no matter how she distanced herself, she would not be able to ignore it if he wanted to kill them. Her former husband, on the other hand, now only inspired hatred and repulsion from her so she was not at all concerned with his fate. She only returned him the part of the firm he had because she wanted a clean consciousness, not because she felt any goodwill.

Now that their ties, both official and financial were cut, she could care less if he died somewhere in a ditch.

Her only concern was for Wu Long.

"Wu Long, the Imperial Family is very sensitive to their authority right now, you should be careful about how you deal with him. Try not to get on their nerves"

She warned him.

"Hm? I did notice a certain alertness in the troops that patrol the entrance to the city when I arrived, and there indeed is something in the atmosphere of the city, but I didn\'t hear anything about the situation. I was curious about it, will you tell me?"

He said as the capital was indeed a bit tenser than a city of such a stable empire that spanned nearly 3000 years of peace and stability should be. Though it was not seen in city life, his sharp senses and experience still picked up on it throughout his stay. He just did not give it much meaning because the affairs of this empire did not really concern him, but with his encounter yesterday, he decided to pay a little more attention to his surroundings.

She looked at him for a moment, hesitating, but then opened her mouth to explain.

"There are undercurrents flowing on the continent right now since it is rumored that the lifespan of the Imperial Ancestor may be coming to its end"

She said, and the light of comprehension instantly appeared on Wu Long\'s face.

What held together the three empires that governed the three great continents and gave them their stability was the existence of practitioners at the peak of this world\'s power, the Mortal Transcendence Realm, the last of the major realms in the great realm of the Nine Mortal Realms.

Unlike the realms before it that gradually increased the natural lifespan of the practitioner by around 30% of the previous realm starting from the Qi Manifestation Realm, the Mortal Transcendence Realm\'s increase in natural longevity was a bit more than double of the previous realm, a bit more than 3000 years, give or take a 100-200 depending on the practitioner. It was also the realm in which practitioners would completely part with mortal needs such as hunger, thirst, and sleep, instead sustaining themselves purely on the Spiritual Qi in the surroundings. And at the same time, it was the first realm in which a practitioner could fly in the air without the use of any tools. It was quite literally when the mortal was transcending mortality in its basic form.

This meant that the rulers who founded the empires were still alive to this day, passing the throne to their descendants but standing guard over the empire nonetheless. However, to ensure further prosperity, they had to raise a successor. It seems that the founder of the Azure Eagle Empire failed in this task.

As the three were quite possibly part of the first generation of Mortal Transcendence Realm practitioners in this world as the Spiritual Qi gradually became better over the years since the \'great calamity\' and was finally saturated enough to give birth to practitioners in this realm, no one probably knew how much natural lifespan is there for them. It was quite possible they assumed they really achieved immortality. But seeing the signs of the founder\'s power declining, it may have occurred to the people here that the Mortal Transcendence Realm practitioner was not really immortal, and thus, the tides may change on the continent. There would soon be a turbulent wave of anxiety, ambitions, and scheming all over the continent. And such times were not that far, as some sharks already sensed the smell of blood.
