After listening to Jiang Che's story, Hua Mulan's beautiful eyes sparkled, and she sighed with genuine emotion, her words filled with sighs and reflections.
A slight sense of regret welled up inside me.
If she hadn't rushed to break through her limits and had instead followed Jiang Che to the Ten Thousand Demon Cave, wouldn't she have been able to witness the epic battle between Jiang Che and the Qilin alien species, Black Mountain Lord?
Just hearing Jiang Che explain it once made her feel excited.
The Dharma of Heaven and Earth, the true form of the Buddha…
I had long heard of Black Mountain Lord's formidable strength, but I had never witnessed him in action before. I never expected that this guy would even have cultivated the legendary Heaven and Earth Transformation Divine Power.
It can only be said that Black Mountain Lord's strength is beyond doubt, as he is a peerless demon king who has grown up in just a hundred years and is awe-inspiring in this region.
Unexpectedly, this peerless demon king, who had enjoyed extraordinary fortune and terrorized the Demon Cave for a century, died so easily under Jiang Che's sword...
Moreover, Jiang Che was actually fortunate enough to enter that inheritance space and obtain the divine power inheritance of the ancient divine phoenix. His luck was simply too heaven-defying!
Instinctively, Mulan felt a pang of envy.
Although she had seized many opportunities in the vast and boundless Cloud Desert since she was stationed on the frontier, it was precisely because of these opportunities that her cultivation level was able to advance by leaps and bounds.
However, the opportunities she had gained were nothing compared to Jiang Che's; they were simply insignificant.
The phoenix is an auspicious mythical beast, protected by heaven and earth, born noble, and the phoenix clan has inherited many mysterious and unfathomable supernatural powers.
It is foreseeable that after receiving the inheritance of the ancient True Phoenix, Jiang Che's future will be bright. Not only will his cultivation level increase, but his combat power will also increase exponentially.
Upon realizing this, Mulan's thoughts raced, and she felt a moment of disorientation.
After gaining such an incredible opportunity, the gap between himself and Jiang Che will only widen. Is he really qualified to stand beside Jiang Che, as Jialuo said?
Previously, Mulan had never thought about this kind of thing, nor did she consider it, nor did she think that she would ever fall in love with any man.
However, in the past two weeks, Jialuo has been constantly nagging in her ear, telling her all the good qualities of Jiang Che and recalling the bits and pieces of her time with Jiang Che.
Mulan then realized that she had indeed fallen for him without even realizing it.
Even a great female general of the Tang Dynasty, who had spent her life on the battlefield and made numerous outstanding achievements, would find it hard not to be moved by a man as perfect as Jiang Che.
It starts with appearance, focuses on talent, and is loyal to character.
Humans are visual beings, and Jiang Che's handsome appearance left a very deep impression on her from the first day they met. As their relationship deepened, Hua Mulan gained an increasingly clear understanding of Jiang Che's extensive knowledge and wide experience.
Moreover, since the other party was able to pass on such a heaven-defying technique as the Yin-Yang Longevity Method to Jialuo and guide her through her cultivation breakthroughs step by step without keeping anything to themselves, their character is completely beyond reproach.
He is handsome, easy-going, eloquent, and highly skilled. He also dotes on his woman and possesses extraordinary talents far exceeding those of ordinary men.
Isn't this the lover she's been dreaming of?
If we're talking about flaws, Jiang Che certainly has them too, but his brilliance overshadows them.
No one is perfect. How could there really be someone in this world who is so perfect that no one can find any fault with them?
In Jiang Che's case, this guy was far too philandering. He already had many beautiful wives and concubines in Chang'an, yet he still tried to seduce his sister, Jialuo.
However, on the other hand, lust is human nature; it's a basic human need. Is there any man in the world who can truly be free from lust?
This applies not only to men but also to women.
Which of those emperors of dynasties, feudal lords, wealthy merchants, and elite clans was not a womanizer?
If ordinary people in the mortal world are like this, how much more so for a peerless genius like Jiang Che, whose cultivation is divine and unparalleled in the world.
Moreover, Jiang Che is exceptionally talented and would never neglect any woman in his harem.
seeing is believing.
Although she hadn't personally experienced it, Mulan firmly believed in this.
After all, the love-hate relationship in her younger sister Jialuo's eyes when she talked about Jiang Che was genuine.
To say that one is not moved at all by an outstanding man like Jiang Che would be true self-deception.
..............................
"Indeed... I've always been extremely lucky."
Jiang Che also sighed, his expression similarly wistful, and he quite agreed with Mulan's words.
To be honest, Jiang Che was also quite surprised to have such an incredible opportunity during his trip to the Cloud Desert.
Originally, he had planned to be satisfied if his trip to the Ten Thousand Demon Cave would allow him to raise his cultivation to the peak of the Nascent Soul realm. However, the actual development of the trip completely exceeded his expectations and gave him a big surprise!
Having spent nearly a month at the Great Wall, I can say that I have gained a lot and there is no need to stay any longer.
Once he's won over the long-legged, mature woman in front of him, this trip will be completely over.
With this thought in mind, Jiang Che's mind stirred slightly, and he directly used the detection technique on Hua Mulan.
[Character: Hua Mulan]
[Cultivation Level: Late Nascent Soul Stage]
[Entries: Heaven's Chosen Daughter (Gold), Divine General (Purple), Master of Military Strategy (Purple), Unparalleled Swordsmanship (Purple), Martial Arts, Spears, and Halberds (Purple), Unrivaled in Schemes (Purple)...]
[Approval Rating: 50%]
...........................
The approval rating actually increased by ten points?
After reviewing Mulan's entry, a hint of surprise flashed in Jiang Che's eyes.
Clearly, this situation had taken him somewhat by surprise.
Could it be that during the half-month she was away, Mulan had a wild imagination, devised her own strategies, and started thinking about all sorts of random things?
Or perhaps... the black-clad, mature woman, Galo, is helping him from behind the scenes?
Jiang Che clearly remembered that before he left last time, Jialuo had mentioned more than once that she would help him get Mulan.
Jiang Che was initially somewhat dismissive, but now it seems the effect is quite remarkable!
Upon realizing this, Jiang Che felt a surge of emotion.
If you get a wife like this, what more can a husband ask for?
Not only does she not object to me having affairs, but she even actively pulls her best friend into the mess, sharing the hardships and even eating a string of candied hawthorns together.
Such a wonderful woman is hard to find even with a lantern!
He must be severely disciplined so that Jialuo can deeply feel his profound love!
Mulan's approval rating has reached 50 points, which is a very high number, clearly indicating that the other party has a high degree of goodwill towards her.
If I guide her a bit, I might be able to completely seduce this beautiful, long-legged mature woman tonight and get what I want.
Upon realizing this, Jiang Che felt a slight surge of excitement within him.
After some internal thought, he quickly came up with a detailed plan.
A beautiful and mature woman like Mulan has always had a strong desire for strength, and with a considerable level of goodwill towards her, you can simply be direct without seeming too abrupt and causing her to feel disgusted.
Thinking of this, Jiang Che smiled faintly and asked the question directly.
"Miss Mulan, I have a method that can help you quickly improve your strength without any side effects, but you will need to pay a certain price..."
"I just don't know if Miss Mulan is interested..."
"Is Young Master Jiang referring to the Creation Spirit Fruit?"
Upon hearing Jiang Che's words, Hua Mulan's heart stirred slightly, and she seemed to be deep in thought before subconsciously speaking.
Having just listened to Jiang Che's various accounts, Hua Mulan already had a general understanding of the miraculous effects of the Creation Fruit.
Jiang Che's cultivation level at the mid-stage of the Nascent Soul realm was able to achieve such a remarkable improvement after consuming the Creation Spirit Fruit; if I were to consume it myself, the effects would undoubtedly be equally outstanding.
"Miss Mulan is indeed intelligent; I was referring to the Creation Fruit..."
"May I ask, Young Master Jiang... what price must Mulan pay to receive your gift?"
Hua Mulan pursed her red lips, hesitated for a moment, and then asked.
There is no such thing as a free lunch in this world, nor is there any good fortune falling from the sky. Mulan naturally understood this simple and common truth.
Besides, Jiang Che had already said that she would have to pay a certain price to obtain a Creation Fruit, so she had no intention of getting it for free.
Faced with such rare and precious natural treasures, it would be a lie to say she wasn't tempted.
"Simple, just cook me some dumplings..."
Jiang Che chuckled and stated his request directly.
"Young Master Jiang... could you perhaps change your request?"
After hearing Jiang Che's request, Hua Mulan's pretty face flushed slightly, and a blush appeared on her bright and beautiful face, making her look like a peach blossom, delicate and charming.
At this moment, Mulan completely lost the cold aura she usually exuded when commanding the army and leading troops into battle, and behaved just like any other young girl in love.
Having received guidance from Jialuo before, Hua Mulan naturally understood the implied meaning behind Jiang Che's words. She knew that Jiang Che wanted her to help him...
Although she had heard about Jiang Che's various strange hobbies from Jialuo before and had prepared herself mentally, Hua Mulan still couldn't help but feel shy and timid when she actually faced him.
Although she was already quite old and knew perfectly well that the sordid matters between men and women were not innocent blank slates, she was still a virgin and had never had any similar experience before.
Moreover...
Jiang Che is really going too far in his unpredictable ways!
We were having a perfectly good conversation just a moment ago, how did the topic suddenly shift to this?
To say such things to oneself without blushing or skipping a beat...
If it were anyone else, Mulan would have slapped them across the face long ago, but when facing Jiang Che, she had a natural filter in her heart, so she didn't feel any anger, only endless shyness.
"no pain no gain."
"To gain something, you must give something in return. What do you think, Miss Mulan?"
Jiang Che avoided the question itself and, without changing his expression, proceeded to give Hua Mulan a long, rambling speech.
Actually, what he said wasn't entirely to fool the other party; it was all profound truth.
"Yes...yes..."
Seeing Jiang Che's serious expression, Hua Mulan swallowed back the words she was about to say, speechless and completely at a loss for how to refute him.
After all, Jiang Che's words made perfect sense, and she couldn't find any reason to refute them.
