I will accompany you...

Shen Qingxuan's face was full of distress.

Upon hearing this news, Luo Jing couldn't help but feel a sinking feeling in his heart.

To be honest, with Luo Jing's current cultivation, he shouldn't be just an external disciple doing odd jobs.

Although his cultivation was very low when he first crossed over.

But the first time he entered a synchronized state, Shen Qingxuan had already synchronized her cultivation with him, and Luo Jing's cultivation skyrocketed that very night.

From a cultivation level of the third level of Qi Refining to directly reaching the peak of the Qi Refining stage.

Once this kind of cultivation was revealed, Luo Jing could easily be promoted and enter the inner sect of the Dawn Moon Peak to become an esteemed inner disciple.

But for these past five days, Luo Jing had been restraining himself.

Even when he was being harassed by Wang Rui, he didn't dare to reveal his true strength.

Because becoming an inner disciple meant that he would have to leave his mark on the sect's records, and light his own life lamp.

If that were to happen, Luo Jing would truly become a demonic monster.

Even if he were to escape in the future, with Luo Jing's life lamp in the possession of the Refining Soul Sect, they could easily track him down and kill him.

The demonic sect was not a place where you could come and go as you pleased.

Furthermore, if he became a demonic cultivator, it would mean that the likelihood of the Soaring Clouds Immortal Sect accepting Luo Jing would be even lower.

As the couple discussed their predicament, Luo Jing realised that becoming an inner disciple of the Soaring Clouds Immortal Sect would not be a wise choice. If a demonic cultivator with a demonic lamp came knocking on their door, he doubted the Soaring Clouds Immortal Sect would accept them unless they were foolish.

However, Shen Qingxuan revealed that their original plan was no longer viable. With their current cultivation levels, they had no hope of escaping the Vast Ancient Mountain range.

After some hesitation, Luo Jing proposed a new plan. "You are receiving top-notch Immortal techniques and rapid cultivation under the tutelage of the Soaring Clouds Immortal Sect, Qingxuan. Meanwhile, I will lay low and wait for you to break through to the level of the Awakening Spirit Realm or higher. At that point, I can sneak out of the sect. The monstrous beasts in the Vast Ancient Mountain range are terrifying, but as long as the Refining Soul Sect isn't targeting me specifically, I should be able to find a way out."

Luo Jing reassured his wife and reminded her of the benefits of their synchronicity ability. With it, even if he only practiced basic external techniques every day, he could still make progress.

The plan they had agreed on could still be carried out. It was just a matter of waiting a few more years, like a long-distance relationship. After all, they could meet each other in their dreams every night...

But when Luo Jing finished speaking, he saw his wife on the other side softly say, "Actually...I've been thinking these past few days..."

Shen Qingxuan spoke up, but seemed to be caught in some kind of hesitation. Finally, she shook her head and said, "But that Senior Sister Wang Rui seems to be unable to wait any longer..."

Luo Jing didn't ask what Shen Qingxuan was thinking about. They continued to talk about the matter with Wang Rui as if nothing had happened. "It's okay, it's okay. Wang Rui is just a small trouble. Her cultivation at the sixth level of Qi Refining isn't enough to defeat me."

Luo Jing wasn't worried about Wang Rui using force. But Shen Qingxuan still didn't smile.

She looked at Luo Jing and shook her head, "It's not that simple...it's easy to dodge a visible spear, but hard to avoid an invisible arrow. Today she deceived you into entering the Medicine Refining Hall, tomorrow she could roofie you."

"There are so many methods that demonic cultivators use to control and torture people, she may not necessarily use force on you..."

Wang Rui, with her lingering malevolent spirit, was indeed a huge problem.

In the midst of the clouds and sea, there was a moment of silence.

In the end, Luo Jing gritted his teeth and said, "I will go to the mountain tomorrow! Pass the test of the twelve demon altars and become an inner disciple. As long as I enter the inner sect, Wang Rui won't dare to harass me again."

Luo Jing made a decision, but it was difficult.

Shen Qingxuan hesitated and said, "But if you enter the inner sect and light your life lamp... you'll become a demon… path cultivator!"

Luo Jing laughed in the sea of clouds. "It doesn't matter. I'll deal with the current difficulties first and find opportunities in the future. As long as I can steal the life lamp and escape later, the Refining Soul Sect won't be able to do anything to me. With my current strength at the pinnacle of Qi Refinement, it's easy for me to enter the inner sect."

"Don't worry about me, Qingxuan. Wang Rui is not a big problem. I will go to the mountain tomorrow."

Wang Rui only had some influence in the outer disciples of Dawn Moon Peak, but that kind of influence was laughable to the true inner disciples.

Becoming an inner disciple was indeed the best way to overcome the current difficulties.

However...

Shen Qingxuan still hesitated, wanting to speak, but she stopped herself.

Luo Jing said seriously, "It's okay, Qingxuan. Even if I become an inner disciple, I won't collude with those demonic cultivators."

"You are my only family in this world, and I will come find you no matter what."

As a couple who left their hometown and crossed over to this world, they were indeed the closest people in the world to each other.

In this world, the only ones who could prove their existence in the previous world were each other.

No one could be closer to them than each other.

This is a true soulmate, with their spirits intertwined, even their cultivation can be shared, surpassing the bond of blood.

However...

Looking at Luo Jing's serious expression, Shen Qingxuan sighed softly.

One worry in her heart remained unspoken.

Yes, now there is a Wang Rui eyeing Luo Jing, but Luo Jing can avoid her by joining the inner sect.

At this point, Luo Jing does have the strength to join the inner sect.

But what about after Luo Jing joins the inner sect?

Won't he encounter someone like Wang Rui in the inner sect?

In the demon sect, it's survival of the fittest, it's not as safe as the Soaring Clouds Immortal Sect.

Moreover, the cultivation aptitude of those demonesses in the inner sect far surpasses Wang Rui, and their looks and temperament are not comparable to this old hag Wang Rui, perhaps there is no need to use force at all...

After returning to the present world, Shen Qingxuan opened her eyes and saw the faint moonlight shining through the window. Unlike the polluted air outside the outer sect of Dawn Moon Peak, the night in this bamboo courtyard was quiet and elegant, a sacred place for cultivation.

The woman got up from the cloud bed and slowly walked into the courtyard. Standing under the moonlight, she looked up at the cool night sky, with a hint of hesitation and distress on her face.

It had been five days since she crossed over to this world, but everything before her was still so unfamiliar. She vaguely felt that the invisible barrier between her and her husband had returned, and was even stronger than before.

But...

"Can a marriage like this, where we can't even meet, really last?" murmured the white-robed fairy under the moonlight.

The two of them had crossed over to this strange world, starting anew without their previous parents or family. In a way, they had no connection to their past world, losing all shackles and family ties.

Her husband was now only relying on a sense of duty to continue fulfilling his role as a husband in the previous world.

But...

"My dear husband, how long can your sense of duty hold out?" Shen Qingxuan whispered.

"But it doesn't matter. As long as you're willing to continue, I will accompany you... no matter how long you can hold out."

"After all, our marriage was a decision we made together."

"If you don't regret it, then I won't either."

There was one more sentence that the white-robed fairy didn't say out loud.

She only silently thought to herself.

"Even if you really regret it in the future, I won't blame you..."
