I Have An Infinite Cultivation Resource
Chapter 51: The Problem
The sky brightened once again.
Lu You impatiently pushed open the window.
After being tormented by Lu Xiao'e the entire night yesterday—killed nearly ten thousand times—Lu You had finally grasped the spiritual energy fluctuations of the Ninth-Heaven Fall Technique. In the Blood Shadow Space, Senior Sister Zeng Yan had helped him build the foundation, while Lu Xiao'e taught him sword techniques. In such a short time, Lu You felt his strength had increased by a large margin. Combined with the endless talismans inside the Cauldron of Cornucopia, Lu You now had the sword technique for close combat, talismans for long-range attacks, agile movement, and unlimited firepower. At last, he had filled the weakness he once had—being helpless whenever someone got close and launched a surprise attack.
On the second floor across from him, Lu Xiao'e also pushed open her window with a smile. She then gracefully landed in the courtyard.
"You kept staring at my window every morning, have you figured anything out yet?"
Lu You followed by jumping down from the building as well, secretly activating a movement technique. To prevent Lu Xiao'e from noticing that his movement technique was identical to hers, he didn't use spiritual energy to increase his speed, only to make his body lighter. This time, Lu You landed softly on the ground without making a sound, not even disturbing the dust.
"Girls really are meticulous. Even sparring requires dressing up so beautifully."
After all, he still wanted to secretly learn from Lu Xiao'e, so Lu You sweet-talked her:
"Yesterday your waist pendant was dark green. Today it's light green, with golden threads woven in. It's like a flower bud absorbing sunlight, slowly blooming day by day. This is no longer just beauty—it even carries a hint of Dao resonance."
Originally, Lu You wouldn't have noticed either. But thanks to the Evil Eye receiving a constant supply of blood, the Blood Shadow Technique had been upgraded to high definition. After being killed nearly ten thousand times overnight, let alone the waist pendant, Lu You could practically count how many strands of bangs Lu Xiao'e had.
Lu Xiao'e shot Lu You a glare with her beautiful eyes, secretly thinking:
No wonder this brat could break my Sea-Returning Hundred River Technique in a single night. His memory and perception are truly astonishing.
Lu Xiao'e casually snapped two tree branches and tossed one to Lu You. Before he even prepared himself, she suddenly launched a sneak attack the moment he caught the branch. The instant she moved, countless sword shadows filled the sky.
To test whether Lu You could truly see through her sword techniques, Lu Xiao'e skipped all preliminaries. The endless sword shadows instantly turned into real attacks. Her very first move was the Ninth-Heaven Fall Technique.
Lu You showed no panic. Starting a fight with a full-power ultimate move right in his face was something he had experienced countless times in the Blood Shadow space.
He raised his hand. Spiritual energy began vibrating along the branch in his hand. In the next moment, the branch split into countless illusions, each one breaking apart Lu Xiao'e's attacks one by one.
Sure enough, this brat really was deciphering her sword technique.
Lu Xiao'e curled her lips into a smile. She released the branch from her hand and retreated backward, dodging Lu You's counterattack.
The next second, time in the courtyard seemed to pause for a brief instant.
By the time Lu You reacted, the branch Lu Xiao'e had thrown had already sliced open the clothes on his chest.
Sword Control Technique.
Lu Xiao'e suppressed the smile on her lips.
'Let's see how you, a mere Qi Refining cultivator, can break a Golden Core cultivator's Sword Control Technique.'
The spiritual energy eruption just now had lasted only an instant. To conceal the Sword Control Technique, Lu Xiao'e had used the dazzling attacks of the Ninth-Heaven Fall Technique as interference, disguising it as part of the sword technique.
"Alright, you lost. Hand over the talisman." Lu Xiao'e smiled brightly and stretched out her hand to collect it.
'That's an amazing sword technique, did you record it?'
Lu You paid up without hesitation while sending a thought to the Evil Eye.
The Evil Eye hesitated. There was a trace of suspicion in its pupil. For that brief instant just now, something had seemed off. Yet no matter how it looked at it, the Evil Eye couldn't figure out exactly what was wrong.
In the end, it could only sigh—after being sealed for so long, the cultivation world must have changed drastically. Even Qi Refining cultivators were this powerful now.
After confirming the Evil Eye had recorded it, Lu You eagerly dashed back into his house. But before he could close the door, Lu Xiao'e cheerfully slipped over and blocked him.
"We're neighbors, why not invite me in for a sit?" Lu Xiao'e spoke politely, but her feet had already stepped into Lu You's house.
"My room hasn't been cleaned. It's too messy."
Lu You grabbed Lu Xiao'e by the collar and forcibly dragged her back out.
"I don't care. I want my pillow."
Lu Xiao'e was very unhappy about Lu You grabbing her collar. Like an angry female cat, she let out a growl and pounced back, using the pillow she had previously discarded as an excuse.
With a headbutt that knocked Lu You aside, Lu Xiao'e rushed into his room. Then she clasped her hands behind her back, glanced proudly at Lu You, and began strolling around his house, her heels tapping across the floor as she inspected each room.
"Tsk tsk. As expected of a bachelor. This kitchen barely gets used, do you eat nothing but staple food every day?"
Lu Xiao'e guessed correctly. Lu You cooked spiritual rice every day and was too lazy to stir-fry dishes.
"The living room is quite clean though. Are you very idle every day? The floor is polished so brightly."
Lu Xiao'e guessed that right too. Lu You cleaned daily using Rain-Calling Talismans and Wind Talismans.
After walking around the first floor, Lu Xiao'e quickly ran upstairs.
Lu You didn't stop her. He knew Lu Xiao'e was curious about what he did inside the house and why he could learn sword techniques overnight. Fortunately, he trained using the Evil Eye. Even if Lu Xiao'e investigated, she wouldn't find anything. Letting her look around might even reduce her suspicion.
When she reached the second floor, Lu Xiao'e saw that Lu You hadn't even folded his blanket. Worse still, her pillow had been placed under his legs as a footrest.
She instantly exploded.
"How could you treat my pillow like this? Not only did you not wash it and return it properly, you're using it to prop up your legs!"
Lu Xiao'e stood with her hands on her hips, fuming.
"I'm angry now. Today I'm going to live here too—and use your pillow as a footrest."
Seeing Lu You frown, Lu Xiao'e suddenly drew her sword with a sharp clang. This time it wasn't a tree branch—it was a real sword.
"Do you know how deep my bond with that pillow is? I've slept on it since I was little. It's been twenty years! It's like my twin sister. Now you have two choices: either I stay here and use your pillow as a footrest, or draw your sword and we fight a life-and-death duel!"
"Actually, I'm a swordsmanship genius. I don't have any treasured artifact. The reason I could learn your sword techniques is purely through comprehension."
Lu You directly laid his cards on the table. Lu Xiao'e had thicker skin than him, was better at acting cute, and was stronger too. If this unreasonable quarrel continued, it would never end.
"I care about my sister, not about your treasured artifacts." Lu Xiao'e's eyes rolled mischievously.
"How about this, I'll teach you another sword technique. If you can learn it right in front of me, then I won't be angry anymore. I'll just consider it as finding a good husband for my sister."
