Starting From A Son In Law To Build An Long Lasting Family Chapter 1840: 473: Phoenix and Dragon’s Song, Farewell

"Daoist Yangming, you’ve awoken."

Azure Phoenix True Monarch's gaze sparkled with a subtle allure as she met Lu Changsheng's eyes. Her tone stayed serene and detached, showing no trace of unease while she explained: "Before, Fellow Daoist, you faced severe injuries with your life at stake, and I suffered heavy wounds as well. With no other option, I turned to dual cultivation and recovery via the ’Heavenly Phoenix Nirvana Technique’."

"???"

Lu Changsheng had been scrambling for the right words to dodge the awkwardness, yet Azure Phoenix True Monarch stayed remarkably poised, catching him off guard.

Without the faint flush coloring her stunning features, Lu Changsheng could almost believe it was all a dream or some trick of the mind.

After all, she currently straddled him in perfect harmony.

"This... how did this occur? Doesn’t it disrespect a fellow Daoist too much...?"

Lu Changsheng's face mixed shock and thrill, his breathing uneven as he uttered the words with a touch of haste.

"We cultivators don't need to bother with trivial mortal concerns. Moreover, the crisis demanded action, provided Daoist Yangming has no objections."

Despite their close entanglement, fully connected, Azure Phoenix True Monarch kept her expression composed and aloof, her speech soft and casual like chatting about everyday affairs.

"...."

Lu Changsheng found himself at a loss for words, momentarily unsure how to reply.

Long before, he had instructed his son to keep steady even if the heavens collapsed, and to remain composed amid dragons and phoenixes.

Right now, Lu Changsheng finally grasped the lesson.

Or put another way, when one feels no shame, it's the other who does.

Looking upon Azure Phoenix True Monarch's mild yet superior visage, coupled with the faint detachment in her gaze, Lu Changsheng drew a steadying breath, his features turning grave as he declared: "Daoist Azure Phoenix, back in my youth, I consumed a rebirth elixir that allowed stabilization at death's door, leading to a nirvana-like revival through its potency."

"Yet, this nirvana force appears to have sparked an odd resonance with Daoist's Primordial Yin Secret Technique."

"Should we proceed with full dual cultivation at this point, it might grant us both a purifying evolution!"

Noting Azure Phoenix True Monarch's reluctance to touch on romantic topics, Lu Changsheng delivered his words with earnest gravity.

As he continued, he eased upward a bit, resting his palm on Azure Phoenix True Monarch's plump and tempting pale thigh, probing for any resistance.

"Nirvana rebirth..."

Without Lu Changsheng needing to say more, Azure Phoenix True Monarch sensed the nirvana energy weaving through her, stirring unrest in her Heavenly Phoenix lineage.

While uncertain if dual cultivation would bring true purification and change, it promised certain gains.

"Alright."

After a brief hesitation, Azure Phoenix True Monarch gave a nod of consent.

As a female cultivator with centuries of practice, she avoided the bashful, girlish reactions common among others in her position.

In particular, since she had already shared her Heavenly Phoenix Primordial Yin with Lu Changsheng for recovery, she saw no reason to deny this chance for deeper progress via dual cultivation.

Hearing her agreement, Lu Changsheng responded with solemn intent: "Please work with me, Daoist."

Azure Phoenix True Monarch paused for an instant, searching Lu Changsheng's eyes before offering a soft nod.

At this, Lu Changsheng promptly sat up, encircling Azure Phoenix True Monarch's waist with his arms, flipping their positions to lay her upon the stone bed below.

Maybe from the thrill of the Mystic Dragon Nirvana Power and Heavenly Phoenix Nirvana Power surging within, Lu Changsheng's grip slipped beyond control, drawing a delicate, seductive gasp from Azure Phoenix True Monarch's mouth.

"Boom!"

Even that soft noise set Lu Changsheng's frame ablaze, his gaze bursting with fierce intensity, almost shattering his restraint.

This was Azure Phoenix True Monarch, after all!

Back when he was just a Foundation Establishment Cultivator, the mere mention of her name as Jiang Country's top Loose Cultivator had filled him with desire.

Now, she lay under him!

Lu Changsheng inhaled deeply, fighting to hold onto his senses, seizing her smooth, leg-like jade limbs, and launching the Sun Moon Samsara Technique alongside the Yin Yang Creation Classic.

"Screech!"

With Lu Changsheng's arts in motion, a red radiance poured from Azure Phoenix True Monarch's form, igniting like fire before shaping into a majestic Blazing Fire Phoenix that rose high.

Its form was lithe and graceful, regal and dignified, tail feathers layered in vibrant flames, each one glowing with varied fiery shades, evoking the cycle of the Five Virtues.

"Roar!"

The Mystic Dragon Nirvana Pill evoked an Ancient Azure Dragon's bellow, its dragon roar blending seamlessly with the phoenix cry, in perfect unison.

Before long, the dual forces started to fuse gradually, like yin meeting yang in flawless balance.

At the same time, Azure Phoenix True Monarch's Heavenly Phoenix bloodline kept surfacing, blending into Lu Changsheng's Chaos Body and Mystic Dragon Nirvana Power.

In the midst of it all, the pair's forms on the stone bed blended like milk and water, inseparable.

...

Moments slipped by steadily.

Within the cavern, Lu Changsheng and Azure Phoenix True Monarch pursued relentless dual cultivation around the clock, shadows of dragon and phoenix coiling about their entwined bodies.

All the while, the Dragon Phoenix Nirvana Power relentlessly refined their flesh, sinews, hide, innards, and dantian, reshaping them through rebirth, rendering them tougher and more enduring.

Lu Changsheng stood out especially.

During his initial Foundation Establishment pursuit, Xiao Xiyue had provided a Golden Crow Elixir, harnessing its Great Sun Essence and her Moonlight Spirit Body's Taiyin Origin to forge an elite base for him, the Sun Moon Dao Foundation!

Still, his inherent Seven Luminaries Dao Foundation proved atypical, and thanks to a prior fateful link with Yun Wanshang's Spirit-nurturing Energy, it shifted into a Yin Yang Five Elements Foundation Base.

Azure Phoenix True Monarch's current circumstance mirrored that episode strikingly.
