Chapter 46: Discussing Matters as They Are (Part 1)

  Back in the Heavenly Fire Cave, after everyone had sat down, Lu Yun looked at Ao Xue and Cang Yue's two stunning bodies and suddenly spoke up: "The two Shifu sisters should put away their battle armor, it's not good to always wear them like this, it's too dazzling." The two women heard his words and looked at him, thinking about what he meant.

  Dazzling? Is it the armor itself or their figures? Seeing his eyes filled with admiration, the two women felt a little shy and proud at the same time, instantly understanding the implication of his words. To be honest, wearing this armor on their bodies, although they couldn't feel any weight or restraint, it perfectly showcased their beautiful and alluring curves, making them feel somewhat unnatural in front of everyone. For the first time being the center of attention, saying they weren't excited would be a lie, but that uncomfortable feeling was also unavoidable.

  Ao Xue looked at Lu Yun and asked softly, "This beautiful armor, we also got it for the first time, but we don't know how to use it yet. Do you know?" As soon as she spoke, everyone looked at Lu Yun with strange eyes, waiting for his answer.

  Lu Yun smiled calmly and glanced at everyone, saying: "I'm not very sure about this either, I'm just guessing. Since this thing appeared so mysteriously on the two of you, there must be a connection between your minds. As long as you call out to it in your hearts, I believe you'll be able to sense its reaction. Of course, this is just my bold guess, whether it's right or not, only you can find out after trying."

  Cang Yue and Ao Xue exchanged a glance, simultaneously issuing a summons in their hearts. In the mountain cave, only two rays of light, one white and one purple, flashed by, and Cang Yue and Ao Xue's armor transformed into the two rays of light, merging into their bodies. As the light disappeared, the two women's captivating figures were concealed under their pure white dresses, no longer dazzling and alluring.

  At the sight, everyone was shocked, and Yun Feng couldn't help but let out a cry of surprise, praising the miracle. While Cang Yue and Ao Xue's faces lit up with joy, their beautiful eyes glanced at Lu Yun, subtly revealing a hint of seductive charm.

  Xuan Yu Zhen Ren glanced at everyone and said in a low voice, "I didn't expect this war armor to be so magical, moving quietly as one's heart desires, it's really great. This time, you two have such a good fortune, it's also the blessing of heaven, remember to cherish it well. From now on, as long as you continue to work hard, I believe there will come a day when you will achieve great success. This time, your cultivation has increased greatly, which is very beneficial for the upcoming top six competition. Add oil, I wish you both good luck!" After finishing speaking, his gaze swept over Yu Wu Shuang's face.

  Yu Wu Shuang looked at the two women and said softly, "These two battle armors are so extraordinary, they're probably not much different from the legendary divine artifacts. With these armors protecting you, even if you encounter a powerful enemy in the future, you'll have the strength to fight back. Now, tell me about the situation at that time. How did you think of helping that Five-Colored Divine Orchid? And when that Five-Colored Divine Orchid infused its powerful spiritual energy into your bodies, did you feel anything extraordinary?"

  The two women heard this and couldn't help but shift their gaze to Lu Yun's body, quietly watching him. Lu Yun just smiled lightly and nodded slightly. Cang Yue looked at Ao Xue and said softly, "You'd better say it, I think we should have had the same feeling back then, right?"

  She nodded slightly, and Snow opened her mouth: "Yes, at that moment I remembered, I could clearly hear the sound of your heartbeat, it was wonderful. At that time, between us, it seemed like our hearts were connected, that kind of spiritual intersection feeling, is really unspeakable wonder." Everyone's faces changed slightly as they listened quietly to her story.

  Her gaze swept across the crowd, and Ao Xue continued: "Actually, this time, we also wanted to seize that Five-Colored Divine Orchid. However, during the seizure, we discovered that it had a layer of extremely powerful seals around it, which we couldn't break at all. Later, others tried multiple times, but to no avail, and we gave up. Afterwards, when that massive three-headed spirit snake appeared, Lu Shidi suddenly said that the Five-Colored Divine Orchid's appearance was actually for breaking through numerous hardships and ascending to become a deity. At that moment, we realized that everything we had done before had become an obstacle to the orchid's ascension. Right then, the three of us decided to lend the Five-Colored Divine Orchid a helping hand, hoping to be able to help it. At the time, we didn't think much about it; we were simply relying on a surge of courage to support us. As for what happened later, everyone saw it."

  Everyone's eyes changed and they all looked at Lu Yun, their eyes filled with doubt. Zi Yang Zhen Ren asked: "Lu Yun, how did you determine that the five-colored immortal orchid was successfully cultivated and achieved ascension? From start to finish, it didn't make a single sound, completely different from ordinary successfully cultivated spiritual objects. Judging from its external characteristics, it's simply a sign of an immortal orchid reaching maturity, so how can it be considered a spiritual ascension?"

  Seeing everyone's gaze, Lu Yun said calmly: "To be honest, the disciple had no absolute grasp at that time, but based on the situation at that time, it was inferred that such a result would occur. Analyzing the various strange phenomena that occurred with the five-color sacred orchid, if it were in its mature period, the first thing to think of would be how to avoid everyone's scramble. If so, with the magical powers it has shown, I believe it would be extremely easy to escape. Unfortunately, it did not escape but chose to break through forcibly. What is this for? It is still to break through all obstacles in a short time and fly up to the heavenly capital."

  Everyone heard the words and fell silent, pondering Lu Yun's words. After a while, Yu Wushuang looked up and nodded in approval: "Your analysis is very reasonable. In that harsh environment, it never chose to escape from start to finish, which means it was indeed for the sake of flying to the Heavenly Capital. Unfortunately, it ultimately failed and instead helped Cang Yue and Ao Xue."

  Lu Yun looked at Yu Wushuang, guessing her age in his heart. From the outside, this Phoenix Academy's leader was not over thirty years old, and she was radiant and stunningly beautiful. Her beauty was different from that of Ao Xue and Cang Yue, both of whom had a unique beauty that was full of youthful elegance and isolation, like the bright moon in the sky, dazzling and pure. Among the two women, Ao Xue was elegant and refined as an immortal, floating and ethereal; Cang Yue was cold and clear as a secluded valley orchid, lofty and pure as the starry night sky, each with their own unique charm, making it hard to distinguish between them. But Yu Wushuang's beauty was a kind of mature aura that came from within, every glance, every smile, filled with the charm of an extraordinary beauty. It made people often forget her identity, her age, deeply trapped in her charm, unable to extricate themselves.

  Lu Yun calmly shifted his gaze, but in his heart he was extremely shocked. Although he appeared very calm on the surface, he couldn't help but admit that Yu Wu Shuang's beauty was truly enough to make countless cultivators lose control. After glancing at Xuan Yu Zhen Ren and Zi Yang Zhen Ren, Lu Yun suddenly understood some things and couldn't help but let out a faint sigh in his heart.

  Looking around, Lu Yun spoke up: "At that time, the three-headed spirit snake's powerful attack made it impossible for Wú Cǎi Xiān Lán to escape during its brief ascension. Later, when the two female masters assisted, they coincidentally encountered Wú Cǎi Xiān Lán at its weakest moment. Although their attempt was unsuccessful, it still had some effect, and Wú Cǎi Xiān Lán understood that the two female masters had done their best. Therefore, when faced with being swallowed by the three-headed spirit snake, Wú Cǎi Xiān Lán chose to repay the two female masters despite knowing it couldn't escape. Conveniently, Wú Cǎi Dà Péng suddenly appeared and restrained the three-headed spirit snake, giving Wú Cǎi Xiān Lán enough time to transfer the essence of its two flower petals into the bodies of the two female masters, greatly increasing their cultivation. The other two extraordinary flower petals transformed into protective battle armor, bestowed upon the two women as a gift from Wú Cǎi Xiān Lán's deep affection." Upon hearing this, everyone nodded in agreement with Lu Yun's analysis.

  Yun Feng asked somewhat puzzled, "Your analysis is reasonable, but why did the five-colored immortal orchid suddenly shrink at the end?"
