What If I Can't Die?

100 I Want to Fly Together With You

Song Shi entered the city. After not being here for a few days, the situation looked even worse.

There were many beggars by the roadside. The ground was filled with trash and all kinds of paper money. From time to time, they could hear cries.

Song Shi walked quickly to the New Moon Brothel. It was extremely quiet and there were no customers.

“What?”

He was shocked and thought that something had happened. When he saw that everyone was still there, he heaved a sigh of relief.

“Young Master.”

Mei Niang hurried over and whispered, “Recently, a distinguished guest came to New Moon Brothel, so you can’t enter the backyard.”

Song Shi couldn’t help but think of what Liu Ruxue had mentioned. He was deep in thought. “From the Yao Moon Palace?”

“Yes, it’s an elder. He’s here to inspect Miss Xue’er’s situation, so we haven’t welcomed guests for the past two days to avoid disturbing this elder.”

Mei Niang was overjoyed. “Miss Xue’er’s talent is being valued by the elders. They have already reported it to the main palace. It is possible that she can soon enter the inner sect to cultivate in advance.”

“What’s so special about the inner sect?”

This was the first time Song Shi saw Mei Niang so happy. He reckoned that there was something good about this happening.

“Yes, the inner sect contains the core disciples, while the outer sect are only responsible for chores. For example, I was assigned here by the outer sect to be in charge of the secular industry and find immortal seedlings.”

Mei Niang chuckled.

“Looking for an immortal seedling in a brothel?” Song Shi was instantly enlightened.

“Young Master, you’ve just entered the cultivation world. You don’t know that this cultivation sect is recruiting people? There are restrictions for the recruitment. Furthermore, if I don’t come into contact with enough people, the standards of the disciples I recruit will be very low. Special places like ours are all over Great Qian which seeks to solve this problem.”

Mei Niang’s face was glowing. “This time, we have Miss Xue’er in our branch building. I can also enjoy the benefits and have the chance to continue serving Miss Xue’er in the outer sect. Then there will still be hope for me to reach the Foundation Establishment realm.”

“Then congratulations.”

Song Shi took a look at the quiet New Moon Brothel, “Where are my father and the others staying?”

“Other than Old Liu, everyone else has left.”

Mei Niang found it strange, “Your third brother didn’t tell you?”

“Gone?”

Song Shi was stunned. He had just seen some people leave Silken City, but he did not expect his family to be among them.

For a moment, he felt rather disappointed.

He was still thinking about how to settle them next, but in the end,when he didn’t come back for two to three days, they had secretly left.

“The soldiers of Great Qian that were suppressing the rebel army were all annihilated in the Thousand Poisons Mountain Range. When the news came back, many people were shocked. Everyone was afraid that the Heavenly Demon Cult’s army would attack the city tomorrow. Many wealthy families in Silken City thus ran away overnight.”

Mei Niang told him about the changes in the city that happened within the past two days, “However, I heard that Great Qian has already reacted. The short term effects shouldn’t be too bad.”

“Are you afraid?”

Song Shi smiled bitterly. Even though he knew that there was a reason for his family to leave, he still felt abandoned.

“Where’s Big Smart?”

“Cultivating.”

Mei Niang pointed to the second floor.

“Prepare a table of food and wine for me. After he’s done cultivating, tell him that I’m back.”

Song Shi was not in a good mood. He had just increased his cultivation by two levels overnight, but he could not be happy about it at this moment.

“At the end of the day, he still doesn’t value my existence. He went away with Third Brother after just a few words.”

With a mocking look on his face, Song Shi walked to the third floor and looked at the sky outside. He felt lonely.

The world was so huge but where was his home?

“How long will the full moon appear? Wine cup in hand, I ask the sky. I do not know what time of the year.”1

Song Shi muttered as the scene from A Dream of the Golden Millet appeared in his mind.

Although he was affected by the divine power at that time, it was indeed not bad to experience the feeling of having a happy family in the dream.

“Young Master, how lyrical.”

Behind him, a fragrant breeze blew over.

A warm body pressed against his back. Her bare hands came out from under his waist and hugged him.

Song Shi grabbed Liu Ruxue’s smooth and slender hand and turned around to hug her. He looked at her beautiful face in front of him. “Xue’er, do you have any relatives?”

“Yes, but I have never been very close to them since I was young.”

Liu Ruxue leaned her head on his shoulder. “Most cultivation families don’t care much about familial relationships . They can’t be compared to ordinary families.”

She looked sideways at Song Shi and reached out to stroke his stubble. “I haven’t seen you for a few days. Why are you so dejected?”

“How can I be happy that the few of my remaining relatives left me and ran away?”

Song Shi pursed his lips.

“Young Master is like a child now. He’s angry.”

Liu Ruxue smiled mischievously. She was very happy to see this side of Song Shi. She comforted him gently. “Actually, Young Master, you’re already a cultivator now. It’s actually quite good to distance yourself from these mortals. You’re not from the same world at all.”

“Not from the same world…”

Song Shi sighed. “We’re indeed not from the same world.”

Due to his special background and the fact that he was not a soul that belonged to this world, he had not completely integrated into the Song family.

“In the future, Xue’er and Young Master will be family. Don’t be sad about them anymore.”

Liu Ruxue touched Song Shi’s face and said seriously.

“Alright, alright. I can’t be bothered with them. Since they trust Third Brother so much, they can follow Third Brother in the future.”

Song Shi grinned. He was an adult now. It was time for him to have his own family. There was indeed no need to care too much.

“Your third brother is actually quite capable. They should be able to survive in this chaotic world.”

Liu Ruxue nodded and wrapped her arms around Song Shi’s neck. “Let me tell you a piece of good news. I’ve become a substitute inner sect disciple of the Yao Moon Palace!”

“Oh, we have to celebrate this. Let me reward you.”

Song Shi revealed a wicked smile.

“Young Master had just returned from great danger. You should rest and eat first.”

Liu Ruxue rolled her eyes at Song Shi, “Let’s go. The food has already been prepared. Young Master should tell Xue’er about what happened outside later. Young Master should know that Xue’er has been worried about your safety ever since she found out that the army of Great Qian had been completely wiped out.”

Song Shi’s heart warmed. No matter how deep Liu Ruxue’s feelings for him were, he never had any true feelings for her. However, at least someone cared about him. That was enough.

He sighed and said, “We were indeed caught off guard this time. Great Qian has been at ease for too long and got a little too careless.”

“Looks like you guys have also been ambushed. The various demonic sects are really powerful this time. They are about to uproot the foundation of Great Qian.”

“Are you saying that the foundation hasn’t been shaken yet? But half of Jinzhou is already in chaos, and this still isn’t being ‘shaken’?”

“Young Master, in this cultivation world, the foundation of Great Qian is related to the territory they own and their strength is in this foundation. As long as the official cultivators of Great Qian are not defeated, this foundation will still exist.”

Song Shi was deep in thought. This time, the army that was suppressing the rebellion in Jinzhou had been annihilated. However, the cultivation experts from Great Qian had come to the Thousand Poisons Mountain Range to defeat the rebels and suppress the flames of war. For the time being, it seems that the foundation of Great Qian is still relatively stable.

He sat down and began to eat. He explained the general situation that he had faced to Liu Ruxue. As she listened, Liu Ruxue exclaimed in amazement from time to time.

Song Shi, on the other hand, was enjoying his meal and wine. Under the service of the beauties, his stomach and soul was finally satisfied.

When one is full and warm, lust comes next.

After eating and drinking his fill, Song Shi naturally carried Liu Ruxue into the room and began to undress the beauty skillfully.

“Young Master, can you not go to the Demon Slayers Division anymore and instead go to the Yao Moon Palace with Xue’er? I want to be with you forever.”

Liu Ruxue let Song Shi take off her clothes and asked with a red face.

“Understood!”

Song Shi only said one word. He did not believe her at all, but he wanted to sleep with her.

He began to take off his clothes. In the blink of an eye, he was nude.

“Where’d you get that?”

Liu Ruxue looked at him strangely. Then, she frowned and stared at Song Shi unkindly, “Young Master, why do you smell like another woman?”
