Dual Cultivation God Returns-Chapter 66: Heaven Transcending Lotus

"Haaa...haaa....haaa... my underwear and tights are drenched now... and my dress is crumpled and the hairstyle is disheveled... it seems I lost my mind for a moment when I agreed...how are you going to fix this?"

As she was catching her breath she looked at Wu Long with some blame for getting her into this. Wu Long just smiled in return.

"A careful woman like you should have a spare pair of underwear and tights in your spatial ring, right?"

"There's really no way to hide something from you, huh?"

As he asked, a smile appeared on her, expressing that she was giving up trying to fluster him.

Wu Long helped her fix her dress a little and then placed a talisman on her dress. He also opened up a small medicinal bottle that had a small array engraving on it. He activated it and it quickly sucked in all the Yin Qi lingering in the air around them. Once he noticed Sui Luxiao looking at the talisman on her dress, he explained.

"This will camouflage the oddities for now, I'll lead you to freshen up"

He said, leading her by the hand, while the talismans he placed earlier started visibly growing decrepit and crumbling into dust.

He led her into deeper parts of the manor, past the area the guests were roaming around in, but to her surprise no one stopped them, and the guards just nodded at them.

"Wait, this is residential..."

She tried to warn him when they reached a gateway to one of the residential areas for direct descendants but he just led her further in and then into a guest courtyard.

She saw a young couple openly cultivating there on the porch. They exclaimed covering themselves in a hurry and bowing.

"We...we thought everyone would be at the banquet... so"

The male tried to explain.

"Glad to see you are exploring the new wonders of the world, just be careful with this, it requires precautions. I'll tell you more about that later, for now, go ahead and feel free to continue inside. Sorry for disturbing you"

Wu Long chuckled but said with sincere remorse in his tone. If he knew he would definitely not ruin this fun time, but it also taught them that one should be always ready to be discovered, and make abundant preparations, such as a formation using talismans and so on.

Sui Luxiao looked at this scene with bewilderment while Wu Long led her into one of the rooms and sat down on a sitting mat.

As he explained to her that this was his room and how this came about, she calmed down a little while going into the bathroom to freshen up and change her underwear.

She did not close the door, letting him watch the scene he liked to watch, and the scene she liked him watching for some reason. 𝐛𝗲𝗱𝐧𝗼𝐯𝗲𝗹．𝐧𝐞𝘁

Only this time, she surprised him by then taking out an identical dress from her spatial ring, which was surprising since it looked expensive and custom-made. She really was a careful woman.

She stood in front of the mirror in the bathroom that was opposite the door, looked to the side and down, and with slow movements took off the stripes on her shoulders to the sides, much like Wu Long did during their act, one by one, letting her dress freely fall. The luxuriously soft and thin fabric followed her curves to go down, and as it was extremely lightweight, the air pressure made it flutter, slowly revealing her round perfectly shaped ass and long graceful legs wrapped in tights and lower underwear, wearing high heels. She was only wearing that while her upper body had nothing on. The dress was specifically made with special material padding on the chest, which concealed the nipples as if she had upper underwear.

She then wore the spare dress she took out earlier, restoring her appearance to what it was like before.

This whole sequence almost made him want to make her appearance disheveled again, only, even more so.

---

Once the second part of the banquet started, the guests returned to the banquet hall. Wu Long saw Sui Luxiao's former husband talk with the Sui family elder, the former was saying to him with grievance written all over his face and mannerisms, while the latter frowned and grimaced.

He soon noticed the Crown Prince coming back in. Song Minfu then slightly nodded and went straight for the new owner of the reformed Exquisite Peacock Trading Company. The latter hurried away from his path, but due to one of the guards, his wine spilled toward the Crown Prince.

Wu Long looked at the events unfolding before him with bewilderment while gasps sounded all around as the time seemed to stop at the banquet.

'Is this all he came up with? I could...'

He thought to himself, but then tried to come up with something and was not able to. What possible reason the Crown Prince could have had to have grievances with a man so little and inconsequential? This whole situation started to become a farce and he already regretted making such a big deal out of killing one insignificant man when he could just kill him in secret and be done with it. He was stunned to only now notice that he was driven purely by feelings. Feelings of rage and wanting this man to suffer.

'It seems to have a mortal body, walking among mortals and studying them really does have an effect on me'

He thought with some enlightenment. It was the first time that he looked at himself and saw that there were changes in him. At first, there was simple light fascination in him that turned to intense interest. This led to changes he was not able to predict, a wind of change. The turbulent emotions of his youth being brought back by Ye Ling have turned that breeze into a storm. But for some unknown reason, he also had a feeling that this change was something incredibly precious and amazing.

"Y-Your H-H-Hi-High-Highness!!! I-I...I didn't mean to..."

As the man started stuttering and tried to explain himself, it disturbed Wu Long's thoughts and made him lose sight of something he was about to grasp as this sequence of thoughts flew away as if carried by the wind. Wu Long sighed and decided to put an end to this third-rate play, so he came closer.

"You really are pathetic, you know? You had such a gorgeous, stunning, and capable woman as your wife...You almost ruined her.

Unable to satisfy her as the wretched man you are, you made her lose her desire. Unable to be the man worthy of her love, you made her lose her emotions. Unable to be confident enough to be with a powerful woman, you corrupted the children she loved just to try and make her crumble and fall. Unable to stand up to her greatness, you tried to make her miserable."

He said as he got close to him. As he was talking, anger welled up from him, and the atmosphere suddenly changed. Sui Luxiao looked on with a dazed face as she heard him speak. She could hear his genuine fury, which made her heart feel enveloped by warmth.

The audience, however, did not have such a warm feeling as a chilling air covered the hall. It was as if they were suddenly thrust onto an ancient battlefield where the most cruel demons were now staring at them with bloodthirst. The questions they all got as this young man suddenly intervened out of nowhere disappeared as intense fear gripped them. Cold sweat started dripping down their necks.

The guards and the old man around the Crown Prince instinctively turned on the highest alert as an extremely dangerous feeling burst out of this young man.

"And you almost got away with it. You almost led her into a grave.

But, you are also unlucky, you have run into me. Then, you lost your status as she divorced you, then you lost your dignity as she walked in with another man, and now, you have offended His Imperial Highness the Crown Prince."

He continued, standing before the uncontrollably trembling man, with a back soaked in sweat, who felt nailed to the spot without the ability to fight, run, move, or even speak up. As Wu Long concentrated on him, he felt thousands of times worse than the people around him. Tears welled up from the man's eyes as the pants between his legs turned darker and a foul smell started to emanate, his legs failed him as he fell to his knees and a puddle of yellow liquid rapidly started to accumulate beneath him.

"You are also weak, so weak that you are not angry right now but afraid. Unable to lift a finger because your will is fragile and negligible"

Wu Long looked down at him and saw his mouth tremble in a desperate attempt to plead.

"Useless. Utterly and uncompromisingly useless as you cannot even speak up when it concerns your life"

He said with disgust added to the anger.

"Pathetic, unlucky, weak, and useless, you have no redeeming qualities to let you continue your existence."

Wu Long took out a sheathed sword which he held in his left hand by the sheath, while his right hand reached for the hilt.

"Hueeeeeeeehgk!!!!!"

A wheezing sound came out of the man as he struggled to speak, his clenched teeth and lips were spewing saliva and his nose was running. His miserable appearance would make the audience want to turn away in disgust and repulsion if it was not for the fact that they were too stunned by the immense killing intent enveloping the place.

"Haaa... you may disappear now..."

Wu Long said as he could not bear looking at this creature anymore as it deeply repulsed him.

Spiritual Qi enveloped the blade of his sword and a vision of billions of swords unfolding in a brilliant lotus flower shape blinded the audience. Each sword was incredibly lifelike, and there were bleaks of light as if a resplendent sun was shining upon each blade. they moved in synchronized fashion according to mysterious trajectories that made it look like the lotus petals had waves of water moving along the surface.

"Heaven Transcending Lotus - 1st form - Annihilation"

In the mesmerizing and bewitching sequence of motions and patterns, a tranquil voice reverberated.

When the lotus finished unfolding its petals made of swords, it froze for a split second and started to close in a reverse motion and the vision disappeared as if in a dream.

There was now nothing left in the place the kneeling man was, and a part of the luxurious rug and floor tiling was missing together with him in a perfect circle.

*clink*

A light sound rang out and the blade of the sword in Wu Long's hands had cracks covering it, and then it started falling off in pieces, but before the pieces could even hit the ground, they disintegrated into dust and even that dust dissipated as if further breaking down and completely vanishing.
