Naked Sword Art

Chapter 440: Seclusion

"Good work, FeiFei."

Yuan Fei smiled brightly up at him. She was already proud of herself and her accompaniments, but hearing Xiao Fang’s praise was that extra cherry on top she didn’t know she needed till she got it.

"I always believed in you," Xiao Fang continued. "If you come up with any new scents, don’t hesitate to show them to me," Xiao Fang said with a grin.

"Un!" Yuan Fei nodded excitedly.

She had never expected her hobby to become such a hit, and she felt incredibly proud of herself, and by Xiao Fang’s praise. It was all thanks to the opportunity Xiao Fang had given her. She didn’t know how he had convinced both Li Lian and Xun Wei to wear her perfume at the tournament, but she was certain her success was entirely due to him.

"I’ll keep working hard for you!" she said sincerely.

Amused by her determination, Xiao Fang gently patted her head.

"I’m sure you will."

With that, he turned to leave. There was only one thing left to do.

He paused at the door and glanced back.

"I’ll be going into seclusion for a while. If anyone asks, just let them know what I told you."

Yuan Fei blinked, then looked at him with admiration. Only powerful Elders usually went into seclusion, so what kind of man was Xiao Fang to be doing that at his age.

Unexpectedly, she bowed.

"I’ll tell them. And I hope you make many breakthroughs."

Xiao Fang was slightly taken aback by her gesture, but he didn’t stop her. By the time she looked up again, he had already left quietly.

Now it was time to prepare.

The best place in the Inner Court to cultivate was the Cultivation Rental Room Center. But before entering a room, there was someone he wanted to visit first.

That person was none other than Yin Fei, who was still under Elder Xia Lu’s care.

The last time he saw her, she had collapsed unconscious after attempting a Dual Cultivation technique on him. He and Xiao Hei had carried her back to the Black Paradise Sect, and Xiao Fang had successfully persuaded Elder Xia Lu to accept her as a direct disciple. That decision had granted Yin Fei access to the Inner Court and formal acceptance into the sect.

Yet, even after several days, she still hadn’t woken up.

The moment Xiao Fang stepped into the building, a familiar voice called out to him.

"Fang!" Peng Ting said excitedly.

"It’s nice to see you again, little sis," he replied with a smile.

Peng Ting grinned. "Where have you been all this time?"

They chatted briefly, catching up as they walked, until Peng Ting eventually led Xiao Fang to see Elder Xia Lu.

Even before they reached the room, Xiao Fang could already sense Elder Xia Lu’s presence. She was in a quiet chamber where Yin Fei lay on a silk-sheeted bed, her body glistening with sweat.

Xia Lu, who had seen him just a week ago on the day of the tournament, didn’t react with surprise like others might have.

"Long Wang. Welcome back," she greeted calmly. "Thank you, Peng Ting. You may return."

Peng Ting gave a small nod and quietly closed the door behind Xiao Fang before heading back to her post.

"Has she said anything?" Xiao Fang asked at last.

"Nothing yet," Xia Lu replied.

Xiao Fang sighed and quietly stepped out of the room. Xia Lu followed.

"I’ll have someone fetch you the moment she wakes," she reassured him.

"Thank you, Elder Sister Lu. I really appreciate everything you’re doing for me."

"It’s no trouble. I’m glad I can help."

Though Yin Fei remained unconscious, Xiao Fang could sense she was going to be fine. He couldn’t explain how he knew—only that she felt as if she were in the middle of some kind of breakthrough. When she woke, she would likely be even stronger than before.

"Lu... is my room—?"

"Ah, yes. I can have someone prepare it for you."

"There’s no need. Actually, I was going to ask if you would like to join me."

Oddly enough, Xia Lu had grown accustomed to Xiao Fang’s directness. Truthfully, she liked it. Even before they reached room 69, a slow warmth stirred within her, and she could already feel her body reacting to him. His eyes might have been blindfolded, but at his level of dual cultivation, even the gentlest touch from him could feel like an aphrodisiac.

Her soft pink lips curled into a beautiful smile.

"I would love to," she said.

She took Xiao Fang’s hand and let him lead her down the corridor. She was his elder, his senior, even his teacher in some ways, but when he acted like this, she couldn’t help but feel like a young girl again, following her secret crush into a private room to do things no one else was meant to see.

As the door to room 69 closed behind them, the ambient noise of the corridor faded into silence. A gentle warmth filled the space, lit only by the soft glow of spirit lamps along the walls.

The familiar tug of the Qi-dense room began to overwhelm him the way the room usually did. But since Xiao Fang’s cultivation had reached the Divine Realm, the feeling was almost negligible.

Xiao Fang adjusted his blindfold to only cover one eye as he turned toward her, his expression unreadable yet intense. Xia Lu felt her breath hitch as he approached—slow, deliberate, and confident.

She didn’t resist when his fingers brushed against her cheek, nor when his hands slid down to her waist. Her body responded before her mind could catch up. There was no pretense between them now—just heat, trust, and unspoken desire.

Their robes began to loosen, falling in layers like petals to the floor. She gasped softly when his lips finally met her neck, sending shivers through her entire body.

It had only been a week, but she missed this feeling deeply.

Xiao Fang gripped her tits and lifted her naked thigh. She wanted to be his to fuck, his to break, his to ruin and ravage in the most disrespectful way imaginable. Xiao Fang had no intentions of holding it back, she knew exactly what she wanted, and frankly he enjoyed doing those things to an extremely pale foreign beauty like Xia Lu.

Xiao Fang picked her up by her thighs, watching her undress her upper half as he carried her to the bed. Watching her beautiful tits drop, she cupped them gently as if to give Xiao Fang a good view. No matter how many times she exposed her naked body to him, her heart still raced, especially whenever Xiao Fang smiled handsomely at the sight of her.

Still being carried by him, she leaned in to stuff his face with her tits, making Xia Lu’s laugh beautiful in his ear.

Feeling the soft press of her plump naked tits against his face and the smoothness of her porcelain thighs in his hands, Xiao Fang didn’t hesitate to devour her the moment they reached the bed.

She was his, and she didn’t want it any other way.

...

In the past, she had told him he could use Room 69 for as long as he liked—so long as he made her experience Heaven first. But this time, understanding what he intended to do, she granted him the room undisturbed.

So, the moment Xiao Fang finished absorbing her Yin Qi, he laid out his ten High-Grade Spirit Pendants and began cultivating the [ Illusory Body ] cultivation method. Unmoving beneath the tremendous surge of natural Qi emanating from the pendants and the room itself, he felt a dramatic rise in his Spirit Cultivation, but even more so in his progress with the [ Illusory Body ] method.

Previously, his body could only handle the Qi from 4 High-Grade Spirit Pendants at a time. But now that his base cultivation had reached the Divine Realm, he could cultivate all ten simultaneously.

Incredibly, within just three days, Xiao Fang had completely absorbed the Qi from all ten pendants. With it, his cultivation realm advanced from the 6th stage of the Refinement Realm to the 1st stage of the Core Realm. It didn’t take a genius to realize this kind of rapid growth would’ve been impossible if his base cultivation wasn’t already in the Divine Realm.

Afterward, Xiao Fang returned to the 7th floor of the Ancestral Training Grounds to collect the Illusory Cores that Xiao Hei and the Abnormal Cannibal Beast had been gathering while he was in seclusion.

From then on, Xiao Fang fell into a focused routine—gathering the cores they hunted, then returning to the Cultivation Rental Rooms to refine and cultivate them.

He repeated this every day until a month had passed.

Finally emerging from seclusion, he could feel a deeper, more refined comprehension of the Illusory Body method—an intuitive clarity that could only come from reaching the Profound Realm with the technique.

Not only had his cultivation for the [ Illusory Body ] method advanced, but his base Spirit Cultivation had also made a breakthrough into the 6th stage of the Divine Realm.
