The Cannon Fodder Female Supporting Character Captured the Villainous Demon Venerable - Chapter 67

Chapter 67: My Magic Artifact Has Gained Sentience!……

Mo Xun raised her hand to rub her eyes.

The scene before her did not disappear.

Mo Xun’s pupils constricted in shock!

Mo Xun: Is that Yun Qianchong? Yun Qianchong actually kneeling and admitting fault… Is this real?

Before she could see more details, Mo Xun’s consciousness returned to the Dual-Polarity Nest.

She opened her eyes, her expression still bewildered.

“How was it?” Wen Yuchan asked her. “What did you see?”

Mo Xun glanced at Yun Wushang, hesitating to speak. Thinking of Wen Yuchan’s words, “heavenly secrets must not be divulged,” she ultimately did not describe the scene in detail, only stating the crucial information:

“The event happens five years from now.”

“Five years,” Wen Yuchan frowned at the news. “We don’t have much time left.”

Even the most gifted cultivators can remain stuck at the Great Ascension stage for four or five hundred years; in contrast, after breaking through to the Tribulation stage, flying up to ascension can take just a few decades if one is fast.

Wen Yuchan: “If it truly is an upheaval in the City of Shadows, our opponents are Immortals. I’m not talking about Ghost Immortals, but the condemned Immortals guarding the City of Shadows. They are genuine ascended Immortals; killing us would be as easy as crushing ants. With our current strength, confronting them is like a mantis trying to stop a chariot.”

Mo Xun: “Let’s be optimistic. Perhaps it’s just the Ghost Immortals acting alone? If so, we only need to hold out until True Immortals intervene.”

Hearing this, Yun Wushang couldn’t help but let out a “Hmph” sound: “Most True Immortals are cultivators who ascended to Immortals. You and I both know what cultivators are like. Even if they intervene, they might not necessarily be on our side.”

Mo Xun admitted that Yun Wushang had a point, but if that were true, it would be too despairing. It’s better for people to have some hope.

So she replied: “Regardless, the City of Shadows was established by the Heavenly Dao to constrain Ghost Immortals and protect this realm, right? If so, as long as the Immortal Realm that follows the Heavenly Dao hasn’t changed, they will surely intervene once they discover the upheaval in the City of Shadows.”

Yun Wushang acknowledged with an “Mm,” and Wen Yuchan hesitated for a moment before also saying, “Very well.”

Mo Xun: “Then, Wushang and I will now begin our seclusion. We leave the matters of the immortal cultivation world to you, Senior.”

Wen Yuchan stood up and bowed to the two, bidding farewell.

Mo Xun and Yun Wushang escorted her out of the Demon Realm and returned to the Dual-Polarity Nest.

Mo Xun stood at the intersection of spiritual and demonic energy, extending a hand to Yun Wushang: “Come, let’s dual cultivate.”

Yun Wushang walked up to her, placing her hand in Mo Xun’s palm. But immediately after, she grabbed Mo Xun’s hand and pulled her towards herself.

Taken by surprise, Mo Xun stumbled, letting out a small gasp as she fell into Yun Wushang’s embrace. She instinctively wrapped her arms around Yun Wushang’s waist, then looked down and asked: “What do you want to do?”

“What do you think?” Yun Wushang released Mo Xun’s hand, hooking her fingers onto Mo Xun’s belt instead, drawing Mo Xun’s hips closer to her own, while tilting her head up and closing the distance between them.

Mo Xun stared at the red lips so close to her, felt Yun Wushang’s breath, and smelled the pleasant faint fragrance on Yun Wushang. Without Yun Wushang needing to say anything more, she placed a hand on the back of Yun Wushang’s head and kissed her lips.

Although the matter of the City of Shadows seemed urgent, cultivation required a calm state of mind, and dual cultivation particularly depended on the mindset of both parties. If Yun Wushang wanted it, she would give it; only by satisfying each other could they dual cultivate better.

Besides, she was a little thirsty herself.

After the kiss, Mo Xun lifted Yun Wushang horizontally and carried her to the bed.

Yun Wushang lay flat on the bed. Mo Xun leaned on one elbow beside her ear, using her other hand to smoothly slip off Yun Wushang’s belt. The black robe opened to both sides, revealing the inner red lining and a flawless body.

Yun Wushang’s naked body lay amidst the crimson, the intensely contrasting colors like a cherry decorating a snowy white cake.

Mo Xun licked her lips, feeling even thirstier. She eagerly lowered her head and kissed Yun Wushang’s sensual collarbone.

Yun Wushang closed her eyes, tilting her head back, letting Mo Xun have her way. Her palms rested almost unconsciously on Mo Xun’s body, as if trying to push her away, but exerted no force at all.

She lowered her dignity and revealed her secrets for her. Mo Xun served her carefully, savoring every part. Their breaths intertwined, their consciousnesses floated and sank like the surface of the sea, and their desire was submerged in the abyss.

After an unknown amount of time, the two lay exhausted on the bed.

Mo Xun didn’t want to move a single finger. Yun Wushang rested with her legs bent, toes slightly curled, equally unwilling to move.

Mo Xun: “…Dual cultivation?”

Yun Wushang: “…Let’s rest a bit.”

Mo Xun: “Is this bad? The world is waiting for us to save it.”

“Saving the world?” Yun Wushang scoffed. “I only seek self-preservation.”

Mo Xun thought: In the scene I foresaw, you weren’t like this.

After lying still for a while longer, Mo Xun was the first to get up, then scooped Yun Wushang off the bed: “Come on, come on, dual cultivation time.”

Yun Wushang let herself be carried off the bed, her body relaxed, but her mouth complained: “Are you in such a rush? Can one more day of cultivation really help you break through to the Tribulation stage?”

“Let’s try,” Mo Xun’s tone was soft, but her actions were firm. “I want to reach the Great Ascension Grand Completion stage within two years, and then refine a magic artifact for you.”

Yun Wushang: “What artifact?”

Mo Xun: “Since it hasn’t been refined yet, I won’t tell you. Wouldn’t it be embarrassing if I fail?”

Yun Wushang: “You still owe me a bracelet.”

Mo Xun: “Mm, we’ll refine them together.”

Yun Wushang: “Refine them together? Simultaneously?”

Mo Xun: “No, I’ll combine all the functions you need into one bracelet. That way, you only need to wear a ring and a bracelet when you go out.”

Although she had a storage brocade pouch, constantly taking things in and out was troublesome.

Moreover, for the current Mo Xun, refining a multi-functional bracelet only required engraving a few more array patterns. This was much less time and effort than refining two single-function bracelets. Why not do it?

Yun Wushang looked at Mo Xun suspiciously: “Reaching the Great Ascension Grand Completion stage within two years, and refining a multi-functional ninth-grade magic artifact within three years?”

Yun Wushang hummed with slightly flushed ears, letting Mo Xun hold her hand. She sat cross-legged with her and began circulating the True Demon Formula.

Both had gained considerable insights from the Immortal-Demon War. Mo Xun, through contemplating the Heavenly Dao and foreseeing the future, gained new revelations.

With these insights, her cultivation efficiency increased several times. Coupled with the assistance of the True Demon Formula and the Spirit Gathering Array, Mo Xun truly reached the Great Ascension Grand Completion stage within two years!

Yun Wushang’s cultivation lagged slightly, remaining at the late Great Ascension stage. For the next three years, she cultivated alone on the Cold Jade Bed, enhancing the strength of her ice-element spells. Mo Xun, meanwhile, left the Dual-Polarity Nest and went into seclusion in the cave dwelling to refine the magic artifact.

Three years later, Yun Wushang successfully advanced to the Great Ascension Grand Completion stage. She left the Dual-Polarity Nest and found that Mo Xun was still in seclusion. The spiritual energy throughout the entire cave dwelling was so dense it was suffocating for a demon.

Yun Wushang had to return to the Dual-Polarity Nest. Then, bored, she opened her wardrobe and tried on every set of clothes, including the very revealing dancing girl outfit.

After trying them all, she still liked the white set best, but the lapels and belt of the clothes were indistinguishable, making it look too plain. A little modification would make it much more striking.

Thinking this, Yun Wushang condensed an ice needle in her hand and began modifying the clothes herself.

Thus, when Mo Xun emerged from seclusion and returned to the Dual-Polarity Nest, she saw Yun Wushang dressed entirely in white.

A snowy white long robe, with silver floral embroidery on the lapels and belt, reflecting a gentle, soft light under the bright illumination. It was clean yet exquisite, like a celestial immortal.

Mo Xun was stunned, momentarily even suspecting that Yun Wushang had reverted back to an immortal cultivator…

Yun Wushang raised the corner of her lips, seemingly pleased with Mo Xun’s dazed expression: “How is it?”

Mo Xun only snapped out of it when she heard her voice: “Did you leave the Demon Realm?”

“No,” Yun Wushang replied, her smile growing more pronounced, subtly revealing a hint of pride.

Mo Xun: “Then…”

Yun Wushang looked at Mo Xun expectantly.

Mo Xun’s eyes widened in shock: “You learned artifact refining!”

Yun Wushang: “…”

Yun Wushang picked up the pillow beside her and threw it at Mo Xun’s face.

Mo Xun caught the pillow as it fell from her face, looking very innocent: “I don’t know why, but I just couldn’t imagine you doing needlework…”

In contrast, the idea that a demonic cultivator might learn artifact refining didn’t surprise her as much, given that the previous demonic cultivator who practiced the True Demon Formula was also a refiner. Maybe Yun Wushang could also refine artifacts after stabilizing her temperament through the True Demon Formula?

Apparently not.

Yun Wushang scoffed lightly, walked to the edge of the bed, and sat down with a flick of her sleeve. The sleeves of the clothes were wide and light, making the motion very graceful.

Mo Xun watched her, amused, feeling that her majestic movement paired with this angelic attire had an indescribable humorous charm.

“If I had known you could embroider, and so beautifully, I would have asked you to design the style of the bracelet for me,” Mo Xun said as she approached Yun Wushang. She first bent down to take her hand, then took a pure silver bracelet from her storage brocade pouch and placed it on her left wrist.

Perhaps influenced by the vision she foresaw, Mo Xun had intentionally refined a silver bracelet to match her snowy white clothes.

She hadn’t expected to emerge from seclusion and find Yun Wushang already wearing this white attire.

Seeing it in reality was even more breathtaking than the vision, so beautiful that Mo Xun felt a moment of self-doubt.

Mo Xun: This is my wife? Such a beautiful person is my wife? I must have saved the world in my past life!

Yun Wushang’s momentary gloom was swept away by Mo Xun’s compliments and the action of putting on the bracelet. She lowered her head to curiously examine the bracelet on her wrist. The hollow array patterns and designs were integrated seamlessly, making the entire bracelet exquisite and unique, perfectly complementing her attire.

In an inconspicuous corner of the bracelet, their names were engraved. Mo Xun’s name was first, followed by hers, and in between was the symbol shaped like the Dual-Polarity Nest, which Mo Xun called a “heart.”

“The name?” Yun Wushang asked cheerfully about the artifact’s name.

“Shouldn’t you ask about the functions first?” Mo Xun countered with a smile.

Yun Wushang: “Once I hear the name you gave the bracelet, I’ll know its function.”

Yun Wushang: “Can’t you change your naming style?”

Mo Xun: “You are the least qualified to criticize me.”

Yun Wushang: “Hmph.”

After bickering for a while, Mo Xun finally shared the bracelet’s name and functions: “Hidden Demon Bracelet. It can hide the demonic energy on your body. This way, you can blend in with immortal cultivators without having to reverse your meridians.”

Mo Xun had wanted to refine this artifact for a long time, especially after Yun Wushang had to reverse her meridians a second time, damaging them and causing internal injury, just to stay by her side when she went to the Artifact Refining Immortal Gate to study. It broke her heart.

Now, her long-cherished wish was finally realized.

Mo Xun: “It has all the functions of the Infinite Evasion Bracelet, with the added function of hiding demonic energy. Since I felt that ‘Infinite Evasion Hidden Demon Bracelet’ was too long, I just called it the Hidden Demon Bracelet.”

Yun Wushang was silent for a moment before saying: “The bracelet is excellent, very much to my liking, but the name… I have one question.”

Mo Xun: “What question?”

Yun Wushang: “As soon as someone hears the name of the bracelet, they will know I am hiding my demonic energy. Even if they can’t sense my demonic energy, they will know I am a demon. This isn’t just advertising your hidden secret; it’s practically spelling it out.”

Mo Xun: “…”

Yun Wushang: “…”

The two were speechless. Mo Xun wanted to say that the functions on the bracelet were passive, so maybe others wouldn’t know the name… But in the end, she hummed in acknowledgment, accepting Yun Wushang’s concern, then asked: “Do you have any ideas?”

Yun Wushang already had an idea while Mo Xun was silent: “Since it hides demonic energy and restrains aura, how about calling it the Aura Restraint Bracelet?”

Mo Xun: “That’s a good one!”

“Really?” Yun Wushang was a little unsure.

“Mm, let’s call it the Aura Restraint Bracelet!” Mo Xun smiled. “Wife is getting better and better at naming!”

Yun Wushang suspected she was being humored, but still raised the corner of her lips happily. Then, she raised one hand, grabbed Mo Xun’s lapel, and gently pulled her closer.

She didn’t use force. Mo Xun cooperated, leaning in, thinking Yun Wushang wanted a kiss.

However, Yun Wushang turned her head away from Mo Xun’s lips, bringing her own lips to Mo Xun’s ear, and whispered: “Thank you, Wife.”

Mo Xun: !

This was the first time Mo Xun had heard the title “Wife” from Yun Wushang. It felt like a firework pop had exploded in her mind.

She couldn’t hold back anymore and passionately kissed Yun Wushang’s lips.

However, halfway through the kiss, a tiny voice suddenly spoke: “Master, Master, can you let Big Sister Black Feather out? I want to play with her.”

Mo Xun: ?

The voice seemed to come from her wrist?

Mo Xun released Yun Wushang’s lips, confused, and raised her left hand. She saw the green bead on the Bone Bracelet Eighteen Blades spinning restlessly, as if it had gained its own consciousness.

“Big Sister Black Feather is…” Mo Xun muttered blankly, remembering the eighth-grade artifact named “Black Feather Fan” that Chu Jiuqu had given her.

Mo Xun: …No way?

She retrieved the artifact from her storage brocade pouch in disbelief.

What appeared in her sight was not a feather fan, but a black bird with red eyes, like a crow.

It fearlessly flew onto Yun Wushang’s shoulder, opened its beak, and spoke: “Little Eighteen, you shouldn’t interrupt Master and Madam’s kissing time.”

Bone Bracelet Eighteen Blades: “Okay!”

Mo Xun: “…”

Yun Wushang: “…”

Mo Xun: Oh no, my magic artifacts have gained sentience!
