Dual Cultivation

"I still need to visit Moshou City."

Lu Xuan exited the Dream Ruins, holding the lotus seed and examining it closely.

This peculiar existence, straddling the line between reality and illusion, could freely traverse between the Dream Ruins and the real world.

He placed the lotus seed into his storage artifact, his movements a bit exaggerated.

"Um..."

Cheng Lingzhu in his arms murmured and clung to him tighter.

Lu Xuan withdrew his hand, gently stroking her sleek back and the perfect curve of her spine.

After a while, Cheng Lingzhu woke up.

Opening her sleepy eyes, she saw Lu Xuan smiling at her.

"What are you smiling at?"

Cheng Lingzhu playfully tapped his chest with her delicate hand.

"Well... nothing much."

Lu Xuan's eyes sparkled with amusement as he picked up a handkerchief from the bedside. It bore a small plum blossom pattern.
