They All Deeply Regretted It After I Became Indifferent

When Lin Mo awoke, he found no trace of Yan Ruyu.

“Who would have thought, my first time would end up like this.” Recalling the exhilarating battle from last night, he rubbed his still groggy head.

Just as he was about to get up, he realized that his spiritual energy had become denser, and beyond that, it seemed to have been nurtured, becoming even more refined.

What’s going on?

Lin Mo couldn’t help but feel puzzled and turned to ask the system.

“System, what are the chances of me reaching the ninth grade of Dan formation now?”

【Congratulations, host, for your stroke of dumb luck. After dual cultivation with a late-stage Transcendence cultivator, you can achieve a ninth-grade Golden Core as soon as you wish to break through.】

A late-stage Transcendence cultivator—Lin Mo knew Yan Ruyu was extraordinary.

But he never imagined she would be two whole realms higher than his master, Yuehua.

No wonder she could suppress Nangong Xu so effortlessly, with mere presence alone.

Such a great opportunity often comes with corresponding dangers.

Lin Mo now began to worry about his life’s safety in the future.

But for now, it’s all good. Once he returns to Qingzhu Peak, he can directly enter seclusion to break through, saving even the regret value.

【Ding, the host detected. Unwilling to spend regret value to impact the Golden Core, the system proposes a new plan. For just ten thousand regret value, you can form a ‘Flawless Golden Core’.】

What’s that?

A Flawless Golden Core???

“The original owner’s memory doesn’t contain this, and you’ve never mentioned it before either. Are you trying to swindle my regret value, system?”

【The system is absolutely fair to both young and old. The ‘Flawless Golden Core’ is above the ninth-grade Golden Core. As the name implies, it is a core without flaws, containing Qi of the same quality as the naturally occurring spiritual energy of heaven and earth. For just ten thousand regret value, it’s quite a bargain.】

To have Qi as pure as the spiritual energy created by heaven and earth…

This means that after forming the core, not only will his cultivation speed far surpass others, but the quality of his spiritual energy will also be far superior to others at the same level.

If that’s the case, then ten thousand regret value is indeed worth it.

Lin Mo has made up his mind. When he goes back into seclusion, he will spend the ten thousand regret value to form this ‘Flawless’ Golden Core.

He got up and looked around, still unable to find Yan Ruyu’s figure, but he noticed two things on the tea table.

A jade slip that recorded a certain technique with spiritual power, and a strangely shaped stone.

He curiously flipped through the content of the jade slip, and the more he read, the more shocked he became.

It was a sword technique, unnamed, but Lin Mo could tell it was extraordinary.

Even with his current talent in swordsmanship, it was somewhat slow to absorb.

About an hour passed before he fully grasped this sword technique.

【Congratulations, host, for obtaining the ‘Nameless Sword Technique’, a mid-tier ‘Heavenly’ grade technique.】

Lin Mo wasn’t foolish; he understood this was something Yan Ruyu left for him.

He couldn’t help but wryly smile at the moment.

Not only had he been slept with, but the other party also generously left a heavenly-grade sword technique for him.

He finally understood the feeling of those little white faces from his previous life who were slept with by powerful women and then left with a pile of money.

This was an insult to his male dignity, a trampling of his character.

Certainly, if such good fortune persists, Lin Mo would hope to encounter it a few more times.

This round, truly no loss.

However, this cultivation method is somewhat sinister, requiring fresh blood as a catalyst. The more people harmed, the faster the cultivation progresses, resembling the demonic practices of devil cultivators!

Lin Mo holds no prejudice against any method; isn’t there a saying that the nature of a cultivation method is not inherently good or evil, but depends on the user?

Lin Mo is certainly not one to kill indiscriminately, but he wouldn’t show mercy to those who are utterly vile or those who provoke him.

If he can’t level up, doesn’t he still have the system?

[Ding, host reminder: To upgrade a heavenly mid-grade cultivation method, the regret value required is substantial. From level one to two, five thousand regret values are needed, from two to three, ten thousand, from three to four, twenty thousand, and so on.]

Damn, that’s quite expensive.

But Lin Mo feels that if he were to cultivate on his own, without spilling others’ blood,

It would probably take at least a year to go from level one to two.

His own cultivation of the mysterious mid-grade ‘Three Thousand Sword Art’ is now at the sixth level, which took no more than a month.

One can imagine, this nameless sword method is not easy to practice.

Besides the sword method, Lin Mo began to observe the stone placed alongside him,

It must also be a gift from Yan Ruyu, but what exactly is its use?

[Reminder to the host: The stone contains the power to access another space, but it requires unlocking the prohibition within. Besides, it comes with a defensive formation that can help the host negate a fatal injury once and transport them away.]

The value of such a life-saving object is by no means less than that of the cultivation method.

And no matter how you look at it, it seems more useful to Yan Ruyu herself.

She actually left such a thing for me…

Is she really afraid that I’ll be chopped and feels guilty about it?

Lin Mo thinks it’s very possible.

He plans to find Yan Ruyu for an explanation.

“You mean the owner? She has already left.”

“This owner bought the Jiang Yue Building a few months ago, saying she was just borrowing it for a while. I don’t know her background, so I don’t know when she will return.”

Hearing the madam’s explanation, Lin Mo suddenly felt an emptiness inside.

Regarding Yan Ruyu, it seems he knows nothing but her name.

Lin Mo sighed softly, turned back to his room to fetch the Liuli Sword, and prepared to return to the inn to meet up with his group of junior sisters.

He had planned to return last night, but didn’t expect such an emergency to occur.

Probably, Xia He is speaking ill of him again at this moment.

Just as he picked up the Liuli Sword from beside the bed, Lin Mo noticed a spot of deep red on the bedsheet and quilt.

Good heavens, this shocked him directly.

Due to the effects of the medication yesterday, the process was quite violent, and many details went unnoticed.

Now that I think about it, when he was at the closest point of negative distance communication yesterday, Yan Ruyu’s face clearly showed pain.

I really didn’t expect it, this seemingly bold and proactive Yan Ruyu was also a virgin.

Although there’s a hint of strangeness in my heart, my fondness for Yan Ruyu has grown a bit more.

It’s just that this first woman who slept with me then ran away, that’s still somewhat infuriating.

“Um…” At this moment, the glass sword in my hand spoke.

“The big sister from yesterday, she had a message for you to pass on!”

“What message?” Even Lin Mo himself didn’t realize that he was a bit excited at this moment.

“She said, ‘Don’t worry, no one will come looking for you because of me.'”

Lin Mo was shocked. It seemed like it was the first time he met Yan Ruyu, yet she understood him so well already.

It feels a bit embarrassing to be seen through by her…

“Anything else?” Lin Mo continued to ask.

“She also said, you don’t need to take responsibility. If you really want to find her, whether it’s for revenge or reminiscing, as long as you can achieve divine transformation within ten years, that stone will naturally guide you to her…”

This woman, she even considered that I might seek revenge?

I really don’t know what to say, making me feel like a deflowered maiden.

Clearly, I remember being the proactive one last night.

This ten-year journey from foundation building to divine transformation is simply an impossible task.

It looks like she’s telling me to know my limits and back off!

Lin Mo chuckled. He’s not the kind of youth who’s just experienced first love, crazily improving himself for love, catching up to that woman’s pace, and then having a sweet romance.

He definitely wouldn’t stoop to do such a thing.

He would do everything possible to improve his own strength, even if he hadn’t met Yan Ruyu, Lin Mo would still do so, otherwise how could he stand firm in this world of cultivation?

As for Yan Ruyu, he would also go looking for her.

But not for a sweet romance.

Instead, to take back the scene, in a sober state, he must make Yan Ruyu unable to straighten her back, unable to leave the bed, sleep with her until she can’t leave him.

After all, the feeling of being slept with and then disappearing is really quite annoying.

After a quick check of himself, Lin Mo left the River Moon Building feeling refreshed, with a face full of spring.

Returning to the inn, however, he did not see the figures of those junior sisters.

He called over the inn’s waiter.

“Oh, your junior sisters, they came back not long ago yesterday, and then set off together again, and haven’t returned until now.”

“When I saw them leaving at the time, I also heard them discussing ‘After handling this training mission, we’ll go back to the sect and fiercely report that senior brother.'”

Upon hearing this, Lin Mo’s face, originally bright with the light of spring, gradually grew cold.

There was no need to say it; his junior sisters had not heeded his words and had gone to the Ding residence on their own accord.

They hadn’t returned all night; it was almost certain something had happened.
