QT: Grace To Grass Counterattack System

He Yuan had used a teleportation talisman to sneak into Mo Jiu's room, ignored the compromising position of the two people in the room, touched Xing Mei's head and then used another talisman to escape.

Once he reappeared at the foot of the Duoluo sect mountain, He Yuan quickly covered Xing Mei up with his outer robe whilst thanking his stars that he'd arrived just before the deed had been done.

"WHO ARE YOU?!" Xing Mei screamed as she struggled in He Yuan's arms. "Let me go!"

He Yuan's hand moved over to the back of Xing Mei's neck and hit on her pressure point with applied spiritual energy. She immediately lost consciousness and everything was quiet once more. He didn't need to deal with her loud mouth on top of his other problems.

Next, He took out the lotus artifact and hopped on, heading straight for the outskirts of the town, towards a cave that he'd discovered on their trip earlier. As soon as he reached the cave, He Yuan lowered the artifact and hopped right off with Xing Mei.

After placing the unconscious woman by the wall, He Yuan paced around the cave as he gathered his thoughts. The first thing on his mind had been to stop the dual cultivation from happening. Now that he'd taken Xing Mei away, he had no idea what to do with her.

If he left her here, one of two things could happen. Either Mo Jiu found her or some greedy cultivator does. Both were bad options.

As He Yuan was lost in thought, Xing Mei slowly woke up. "YOU!" She shouted at He Yuan as she got up from the ground and stalked over to him with a sneer on her face. "Why have you brought me here? What do you want from me?"

"Nothing." He Yuan said simply and moved away from her. He was still thinking of what to do about this situation.

"Don't lie to me! I'm not a fool. I've met many like you. You're all the same. Only brother Jiu is different. Take me back to brother Jiu!"

He Yuan stared at her with raised brows. "He's different? Other cultivators try to dual cultivate with you immediately they see you and you clearly see them as bad people. Mo Jiu tried to do the same thing and you call him different?"

"Of course he's different!" Xing Mei declared angrily. "He genuinely loves me."

At this point He Yuan was exasperated. "Did he tell you that? Are you a fool? You only just met and he's in love with you? Does he even know where you come from? Do you even know what kind of person he is?"

"That doesn't matter." Xing Mei waved her hands in the air. "It takes mere seconds for some people to fall in love. When you're in love, what does the other person's background or history matter to you? The important thing is focusing on the present!"

He Yuan grit his teeth. "Let me get this straight, you would willingly give yourself up to any man that claims to love you?"

"Brother Jiu is different, much better than a scum like you who is only pretending to reason with me just so you would trick me into dual cultivating with you!" Xing Mei held on adamantly.

He Yuan's face hardened as he rushed forward and knocked Xing Mei out once more. The mere fact that she'd spouted such rubbish from her mouth angered him to no end. One, she was the wrong gender and even if she was a male, he still would not take his body parts anywhere close to someone this foolish.

Just because she was naive didn't mean it was his job to look after her. He'd repeatedly tried to talk sense into her but she was too far gone.

There was a very thin line between naivety and being plain stupid. This woman had crossed the naivety line and was proudly dancing on the peak of stupidity. With her kind of physique she should be much smarter than this.

Since she wanted Mo Jiu, He Yuan was going to let her go. He'd thought of a better plan. He quickly pulled out his needles. It was difficult to slow down Mo Jiu's cultivation, as situations such as this would keep happening, so he decided to use Xing Mei as a carrier.

He Yuan picked out five needles, inserted it at different spots on Xing Mei's body and applied his spiritual energy to release the drug within the needles. With the way the needles were inserted, the drug would not affect Xing Mei but it was possible for it to be transfered through 'dual cultivation.'

As soon as the last needle was removed from Xing Mei's body, He Yuan felt a strong spiritual energy sweep through the air. Mo Jiu had arrived. It was a good thing he'd finished up in time. He took out a teleportation talisman and teleported away. He wasn't in the mood to deal with another idiot.

Mo Jiu stalked into the cave with Huoyan drawn and brimming full of energy absorbed from its master's anger. After a quick look around, he found Xing Mei wrapped in Mo Sheng's robe. His nostrils flared in anger. How dare he?!

Xing Mei was his. His! He looked around and when he found no sign of Mo Sheng, he rushed forward and dragged the robe away.

Xing Mei gasped awake when the cold air hit her naked body. "YOU! S-" When she saw that it was Mo Jiu instead of the scum man, she burst into happy tears and hugged Mo Jiu. "Brother Jiu~ He tried to take me away from you."

"It's fine." Mo Jiu said as he ran his hand all over Xing Mei's body. Mo Sheng was beginning to do too much! But that could be handled later. For now, he held Xing Mei's chin and tilted her head up to kiss her.

Soon enough, loud ambiguous sounds were echoing throughout the cave. Mo Jiu felt a rush of qi gathering from the surroundings at an alarming rate and filling up his dantian sea as he dual cultivated with Xing Mei. He'd never felt anything so good before.

As soon as He Yuan arrived at the sect, he went straight to the Back mountain. Mo Jiu would definitely come to settle scores with him once he was done with Xing Mei. Rather than stay here and wait for a beating, it was better to go and enhance his cultivation with training.

Mo Jiu could wait.

Once Xing Mei fainted from overexertion, Mo Jiu settled down to cement his cultivation. Over the last two years, he'd moved up a stage and had entered the middle stage of Nascent soul. With this dual cultivation, he'd moved up two stages and was now in the peak of Nascent soul.

Mo Jiu smile. His goal of getting strong so he could stand at the top, where no one could harm him or those he wanted to protect, was not far off.

Whilst all these was happening. A lone cultivator arrived at the foot of the Duoluo sect mountain. The beautiful man looked up the mountain and a slow smile formed in his face.

Mo Jiu, I'm finally here.
