Da Xuan Martial Saint-Chapter 696 - 394: Everything in the World Has Its Flaws and Merits

"You targeted me this time, and still dare to act innocent after taking advantage?"

Chen Mu glanced at Hua Nongying.

The mindset of the women from the Hehuan Sect was indeed somewhat abnormal to various degrees. However, at his current stage, Chen Mu no longer feared being schemed against, nor did he mind anything else. This exploration of Yin and Yang had indeed brought him quite a bit of experience. Undoubtedly though, Hua Nongyue and Hua Nongying gained even more, as for thousands of years, he was the only one who had cultivated the Qiankun Martial Body to such a realm.

Perhaps it couldn't be said that there would be no one afterwards, but certainly there was no one before him.

"We were merely going with the flow, what schemes are you talking about? You think too poorly of us, sir. Although it was us sisters who gained, you also benefited somewhat, right?"

Hua Nongying looked at Chen Mu with a giggle, her eyes pityingly watching him.

It seemed that after finally breaking through that barrier in their relationship, she had reverted to her former self in front of Chen Mu, no longer so overly cautious, regaining the lively demeanor of a Hehuan beauty.

As she spoke, Hua Nongying leaned closer delicately, her petite body nestled in Chen Mu's arms, looking up at him with somewhat misty eyes, "When I first met you in Yu County years ago, I just thought you were quite fascinating. I never imagined that there would come a day when I would serve you, and together with my sister..."

"A hero like you might appear once in thousands or tens of thousands of years, perhaps. My sister and I were supposed to be dead, abandoned by this world from birth. We never dreamed of having this day, nor of meeting someone like you."

Upon hearing Hua Nongying's words,

Chen Mu fell briefly silent.

No matter the natural talents or outstanding qualities of these Hehuan sisters, it did not change the fact that they had been abandoned by the world. No matter how they grew up under the environment of the Hehuan Sect and what sort of mindset they developed, remembering these facts couldn't be entirely without emotion.

He could sense from Hua Nongying's tone that there was no resentment, as being conjoined twins in this era meant being 'freaks'; being abandoned was only too normal. Compared to resentment, it was more of a hint of loneliness.

"Did you later try to find your family?"

Chen Mu asked after a short contemplation.

When he came to this world, he too had only his sister to rely on, but he was ultimately different as he had parents in his previous life and was not abandoned by the world at birth.

"We did search,"

Hua Nongyue took over the conversation. She kneeled in front of Chen Mu, looked up at him, and spoke softly, "We also found them. They had other younger brothers and sisters by then, and had long forgotten about us. We didn't reveal ourselves as they probably did not want to see us again. That's fine too. We were raised in Hehuan and besides Hehuan, we no longer need to concern ourselves with worldly affairs."

Chen Mu was silent for a moment before saying, "Having no attachments is good."

Hua Nongying drew circles on Chen Mu's chest with her slender, jade-like finger, giggled, and then said, "From now on, our only attachment will be to you, sir. This life belongs only to you. Even the commands of Hehuan, compared to your orders, it's your will that takes precedence. Can you trust us a little more now?"

Chen Mu watched Hua Nongying and gently shook his head, saying, "The cultivation techniques of your Hehuan Sect, some are indeed noble and righteous, yet others are completely underhanded, practicing crooked paths and heretical methods..."

He did not doubt Hua Nongying's words.

The Hehuan Sect's cultivation consisted of two types: one was Indulgence Desire, where lust prevails over emotion, which leads to controlling others by bewitching them with lust, allowing oneself to be willingly harvested. The other, which Hua Nongying and Hua Nongyue practiced, involved retraining oneself despite following the path of pleasure—a practice only the truest transmitters over generations and very few outstanding disciples could cultivate.

Practicing lust yet restraining it would create a build-up over time, until it exploded in a moment of indulgence, and the mindset, due to years of restrained lust, would be released and transformed, permanently marked by another's influence, with both body and mind under their control.

Why could the Hehuan Sect maintain intricate connections with many powers without being suspected by them?

Everyone in the Hehuan Sect knew that truth is scarce in their words, yet why does every generation of the Hehuan Sect have disciples entering the palace, with their presence also in some backyards of the royal family?

The reason naturally involves disciples like Hua Nongying.

For those who practice self-restraint in desires, once they indulge in someone, they are controlled for life, unable to defy, because the lust accumulated over years is suddenly released, and the effect is drastically different from initial indulgence. The essence of their will also gets affected.

This is why such Hehuan Sect disciples could enter various factions, even imperial harems, without suspicion, because from that moment, they no longer belong to Hehuan. Of course, such internal affairs are disdained by many Righteous Sects, as the indulgent sect is already considered heretical, and the latter one even more so as it seems like breeding female disciples to be played with, something a respectable sect should not partake in.

Chen Mu, by now, understood everything about the Hehuan sisters—from Artistic Conception to Cultivation Technique to every detail of the Charming Skill they had cultivated. He knew thoroughly that Hua Nongying's words were true.

"What if I want you to be enemies with Hehuan?"

Chen Mu looked at Hua Nongying and suddenly asked.

Upon hearing this, Hua Nongying immediately showed a sorrowful expression and said, "We cannot defy your orders, sir, but we also cannot be enemies with Hehuan. If it comes to that, my sister and I would have only death left."
