560 Touching Reunion Story (1/2)

Sister Wu?

This familiar appellation and tone of voice caused the experienced Wang Lu to feel his blood run cold in a split second. However, at the same time, he forced himself to calm down. On the surface, he maintained his composure, while his heartbeat and muscle reaction were also controlled perfectly.

Regardless of how much information was behind the two words 'Sister Wu', right now, it was not a good time to process that information. Moonless was right before him, so he must at least survive through this before he could consider other things.

Right now, the smiling Moonless in his bosom had a face brimming with happiness. It was hard to imagine that, just ten days ago, this was a half living half dead terrifying face, which could cause countless people to tremble in fear with just a slight raise to her eyebrow. However, Wang Lu didn't dare to be careless at all. After all, in just a few days, she had changed from a half living half dead person to a beautiful girl, so it was difficult to guarantee that in the blink of an eye, she would not return to her old ways.

Right now, she called him Sister Wu cordially, but the next moment, she might sneer coldly and possibly turned the opposite party to ashes.

Therefore, Wang Lu had to handle his reaction good, not only for himself but for the girl who was in her last stage of achieving Jindan Stage in the room.

However, in the face of a sudden embrace like this, what kind of reaction that could be regarded as the correct one? Were Moonless throwing herself at his arms expressing her real feeling, or was it just a realistic pretense? After all, this was still in Sky City—if she did things too presumptuously here, she might not necessarily be able to afford its consequence.

Too many unknown variables made it difficult for him to decide. Should he smile and return the hug, should he coldly reject her, or should he pull out his Sword of Mount Kun for a desperate fight? Every choice seemed reasonable, but there was also a big danger within...

Within a split second, Wang Lu made a trade-off in his mind and decided to respond with the golden means.

Thereupon, he let out the so-called universal response.

”Hehe.”1

Neither salty nor weak, neither servile nor overbearing. Regardless of all variables, he merely let out a ”hehe” laughter. It was not a very elaborate response, but it was a great weapon to delay the conversation and lead it to the next stage.

As expected, after listening to this, Moonless didn't care much, but merely dawdled in Wang Lu's arms like a spoiled child, making a lazy nasal sound.

There was another worry in Wang Lu's heart. Right now, he was wearing his Master's appearance, which relied on a wonderful illusion spell. And although this was a fine illusion, and it could even perfectly simulate the tactile sense, letting Moonless experience a very good tactile sensation, but an illusion was still an illusion after all. And being so close to a Daoist Master of Deity Stage, Wang Lu didn't really have the confidence that it would be seen through by the opposite party.

Fortunately, Moonless seemed to have no wariness for the other party. After rubbing herself on him for a while, she looked up and said, ”Sister Wu, I'll come looking for you again tonight okay?”

”Hm…” Wang Lu deeply pondered, not eager to give out a definite answer.

In fact, he really wanted to firmly nod and say: No problem, you can come again tonight, I'll take my leave this afternoon! However, if he was too eager, he might reveal a flaw, so he must make an effort to keep her in suspense.

Sure enough, this hesitation caused Moonless to worry. She vigorously hugged Wang Lu's arm and swayed back and forth. ”Tonight, okay? It's rare for me to come to Sky City.”

Wang Lu could not even have the mind to enjoy the touch on his arm as his whole mind was used to analyze the next step.

Judging from the present dialogue, the question about which one of Moonless and Sister Wu is more powerful… Or which one was the 'man' or 'woman', was so clear. That majestic and awe-inspiring vassal lord of Palace of Heaven was guided by Sister Wu with an unclear method to become a weak little girl like this. In other words, he had a lot of room to maneuver this time. As long as he did not reveal any obvious flaw, he still had the initiative.

”Tonight, huh…” Wang Lu deliberately knitted his eyebrows, and then slowly lowered his head to look at the anxious eyes of Moonless. ”Maybe. I currently have something important to do, so you should go back first. If I have the time tonight, I'll come looking for you.”

And then, to Moonless' surprise, Wang Lu showed a little smile, and then shook his finger a bit, vaguely making a telepathic finger gesture.

Moonless let out a gentle 'ah' sound, looking so happy as if she was about to pass out. Her face turned full red as tears of joy welled up in her eyes.

”I-I am so happy…” With that, she covered her face and said, ”You asked me to give up my half-dead body, which would wash away my dozens of years of cultivation advancement in Deity Stage… But you gave me tons of happiness. Thank you, Sister Wu.”

With that, she turned around and walked away. ”Sister Wu, this time, I came to Sky City to participate in an interim meeting, so I will be in Morning Sky Hall in the next few days… I'll be waiting for you to come.”

In the last moment before leaving, her eyes still locked on Wang Lu's outstretched fingers, very reluctant to part ways.

When Moonless body finally disappeared, Wang Lu really wanted to poke his own eyes with that outstretched fingers.

This play was really… too beautiful to look at. In all honesty, the picture of a young girl falling in love was indeed quite pleasing to the eyes, especially when she was a beautiful girl. But as soon as he remembered she was a half living half dead person, no matter how beautiful the face was, it would be greatly reduced. Let alone the other party was essentially a vicious and merciless Deity Stage vassal lord, which was like a difference between life and death compared to a pure and innocent young girl, as opposite as yin and yang.

Of course, what made people want to poke their own eyes were her delicate and intimate tone of voice when she said the words Sister Wu.
