Otherworldly Desert Dust

The star dome was breathtaking, interwoven into a brilliant tapestry.

The campfire had died out, the earth was dark, and all things were asleep.

A humble wooden cabin, so small it held only a feather bed, with a luminous pearl as the sole source of light.

The cabin door was locked.

Until dawn, this door was impossible to open.

A man and a woman sat opposite each other, utterly unthinkable that a few days ago they were guests, and today they had become livestock, confined to a pen-like place, and even forcibly required that if they didn't complete it seven times, they were not allowed to come out.

What kind of joke was this, giving oneself a fairy, and one was supposed to act like livestock?

It was an insult to one's dignity!

Wu Hen was slightly dissatisfied with the customs of the Ancient Clan for the first time. As a young man of civilization, he believed in taking responsibility in all interactions. Without any safety measures, Wu Hen absolutely wouldn't do anything with an unclear woman, not even for a fairy!

Fairy Gong Qin was extremely uneasy. She feared the man's beastly nature, for she was indeed very weak now. Her true immortal power was completely sealed by her inner demon. She wasn't a match for this brute if it really came to that. She would rather die than live in shame.

"May I ask..."

"No!" Fairy Gong Qin immediately refused.

"I just wanted to ask, what's your star sign, to see if our birth charts match." Wu Hen said.

"Yao Guang." Fairy Gong Qin replied.

"I'm a Virgo... Wait, what's Yao Guang?" Wu Hen said.

"Yao Guang is Yao Guang, Star Name Yao Guang!" Fairy Gong Qin emphasized, seemingly stressing her title for respect.

"Speaking of which, Du Mao also has a similar name, something like Douwei Star." Wu Hen muttered.

Fairy Gong Qin couldn't help but roll her eyes. It turned out this guy came from an even more backward human civilization, having never heard of the star names.

Even the most distinguished Nine Venerable Human Clan had no right to marriage talks with their Sword Immortal lineage. She regretted, deeply regretted, not holding firm her Dao heart, getting corrupted by her inner demon, and ending up like this.

Inner demon, oh inner demon!

How could she break this damn inner demon!

She was destined to be a peerless Sword Immortal, the hope of everyone. No way she could break her Dao over this minor inner demon, much less perish.

Suddenly, Aunt Ke's words echoed in her mind: Because she was solely focused on the immortal path, she had lost much of her human nature along the way. Immortals were still people with emotions and desires. If she didn't face her emotions and desires, she would remain trapped.

Mortal tribulation??

Was it because she hadn't experienced the so-called mortal tribulation, and now she found herself in one?

"To become an immortal, you must first be a complete human. Only when the human path is perfected can the immortal path be perfected." Aunt Ke's words kept ringing in her ears.

Becoming human?

Was it that difficult!

Gong Qin believed immortals were above humans. What humans could do, she could do with ease.

"Do all people have to do these things?" Fairy Gong Qin pondered for a long time before earnestly asking Wu Hen.

"Ah... this..." Wu Hen was also stunned by the question.

In theory, yes, especially when well-fed and clothed. Doing these things was essential, akin to the purest singing and dancing arts.

"Is it so difficult to answer yes or no?" Fairy Gong Qin said angrily.

"Aunt Ke was right. The reason you get so upset, vent your anger easily, and despise everything is likely due to physiological imbalance. I don't know how the Immortal lineage's bodies work, but if the Ancient Clan believes immortals also need emotions and desires, you're probably clogged up. I'll ask one question: don't hit me. Is your menstruation regular and heavy?" Wu Hen asked.

"What is menstruation, a law of Heaven and Earth?" Fairy Gong Qin asked in confusion.

"..."

No wonder there was no fertility.

If she wasn't an immortal, her face would probably be covered in acne.

Young people's acne indicated the need to mate.

"For humans, it's definitely necessary, at least to resolve it oneself." Wu Hen said.

"Can you resolve it by yourself?? Show me how." Fairy Gong Qin immediately ordered.

Heavens!

What kind of family did this fairy grow up in? Do immortals really not give any adult teachings? Were these even human words!

"Actually, the blockage can be resolved in two ways. It's not necessarily through bodily pleasure. Psychologically, it's possible too, like chatting with others, especially the opposite sex." Wu Hen said.

"Oh, I rarely chat idly with people."

"Alright then, we'll just chat. Nothing more. After all, my heart already has a fairy. Asking her to move aside goes against my pure nature." Wu Hen said.

"Do you know other immortals?" Fairy Gong Qin asked.

"Just a metaphor. We regard the one we like most as a fairy or goddess, not a real female immortal like you." Wu Hen explained.

"Oh." Fairy Gong Qin seemed half-understanding. She observed Wu Hen's facial features under the light of the luminous pearl, "If you help me break my inner demon, I will grant you the honor of my star name."

"Girl, you better mean your inner demon."

"I don't like idle talk. Since Aunt Ke said it might help my cultivation, I'll give it a try." Fairy Gong Qin's eyes showed resilience. As long as she could return to her Dao, what's a little human affair?

"You're insane." Wu Hen cursed bluntly.

"What to do, tell me!" Fairy Gong Qin said sternly, exuding a heroic resolve to sacrifice for righteousness.

"First, take off your clothes... Oh no, fairy, don't be ridiculous. You can't force such things. You need to find the root of your inner demon yourself. The Ancient Clan, deep down, are jokesters. They put us together just to laugh at us." Wu Hen held to his principles.

"Hmph, did you really think I was a silly girl? I was testing you. If you had improper thoughts..." Fairy Gong Qin's face immediately changed, her tone icy.

If Wu Hen had described an indescribable process, this female immortal would have exorcised him on the spot.

"Scared me to death. As soon as dawn breaks, you go your way, I'll go mine. As for your inner demon, solve it yourself!" Wu Hen said.

"No better!" Fairy Gong Qin swiftly restored her previous aloofness, having a vigilant distance, like sharing a room with a wild bull.

Wu Hen was fed up.

How could this woman's temperament change so quickly. Just now, she seemed naïve and innocent, and now she was supremely aloof, cold as a jade carving, without a trace of emotion.

...

The night passed silently.

Wu Hen slept soundly.

After hunting Thunder Crossing Tai Peng, he was exhausted, having subdued a female immortal he couldn't possibly defeat outside. As soon as he closed his eyes, he didn't care if he was in a small pen with a real fairy beside him.

At dawn, the door lock really opened.

Fairy Gong Qinyu's face was full of grievance. Being treated like livestock humiliated her immortal dignity. She wanted to sue to the Heavenly Palace Immortal Court!

"Good day, fairy." Du Mao greeted respectfully, even bowing.

Gong Qin hated with a desire to slap this insider to death.

The Ancient Clan people would never leave this Scroll Realm, so what happened here wouldn't reach the outside. Only this guy from the outside. She needed to bury him to remain pure as Fairy Yao Guang!

"Brother, wake up, time to hunt!" Du Mao entered and woke up Wu Hen.

Wu Hen groggily woke up, smelling the floral scent in the humble cabin, and glanced at the girl hurriedly leaving, dressing up...

No way?

Did she do anything excessive while he slept?

"Newlyweds, you can rest for a few days, no rush to hunt." Chongli Mountain came, kindly saying.

"I'm here to learn skills, not to pass on my lineage, besides she can't conceive, so no point wasting time." Wu Hen got up, washed his face, ready to hunt again.

Feeding Little Yi was key. How could he get lost just because she was a fairy? Wu Hen admitted her aura was fascinating like a rare cloud spectacle...

But Wu Hen had principles, he wouldn't force it.

"Very good, not indulging in desire, young people must learn self-control. Today, uncle will teach you some real skills, beneficial everywhere!" Chongli Mountain said.

Wu Hen's eyes lit up upon hearing that!

Chongli Mountain was a godly existence, a rare Ancient Clan member capable of solo hunting mythical species. In the outside world, even ten Purple Robed Masters couldn't withstand his slap!

To teach real skills, how amazing would his divine skills be!

The legendary Law of Heaven and Earth?

...

Following Chongli Mountain out.

This time, Chongli Mountain only brought Wu Hen, even his son Chong Hua wasn't there.

One-on-one teaching meant real passing on, making Wu Hen deeply moved.

Uncle was petty, pairing him like livestock, but truly teaching great skills. Otherwise, a lifetime couldn't defeat a Sword Immortal lineage woman.

"Today, I'll teach you taming skills. As a man, you must know how to..."

"Uncle, I understand adult matters. We have all kinds of manuals, I bought them by the weight before. Can we focus on practical skills? I want to be a Venerable Desert Dust, my homeland is too weak, vulnerable to destruction. I need great skills to return and dominate!" Wu Hen said with a bitter face.

Chongli Mountain raised his eyebrows and said indignantly, "Did I say taming female immortals?"

"Huh?" Wu Hen was puzzled, "Then taming what?"

Chongli Mountain's gaze focused on mythical beings in the world, exuding confidence: "Of course, taming these mythical species in your eyes!"

Mounts, contracted beasts, tame pets...

In an instant, Wu Hen thought of many terms, making him excited and emotional!

Could mythical beings in the Scroll Realm be tamed????

Riding a phoenix back to his homeland... Wu Hen could already imagine the global spotlight on him!!
