Chapter 350  The Hunter Who Killed Immortals (101)

Paradise.

This place… it was a paradise.

Xu Lu could feel all the worries and stress in her mind slowly fade away as she closed her eyes and felt a warm pair of hands gently wrap themselves around her shoulders.

Her girlfriend was lightly touching her unblemished skin and purring softly in her right ear. The sweet sensations assaulting her body was making Xu Lu squirm in anticipation as her lover planted soft kisses along her neck.

She opened her eyes and was greeted by a breathtaking landscape of vibrant colours. The pair were currently sitting down on a blanket in the middle of a field of flowers.

A gentle breeze lightly brushed against Xu Lu\'s face, and she could smell the fresh scent of flowers as pollen travelled along the gusts of wind. The faint hum of insects could be heard as well but she could not see any nasty critters.

She deserved this peace.

She deserved these good things.

Xu Lu looked down at the robes that she wore, and a happy smile spread across her face. She was wearing a luxurious golden gown that shimmered slightly under the warm starlight.

A silvery grey pendant hung across her neck with the symbol of blade.

She was the saintess of the Holy Sword Sect and the one who would eventually take up the heavy mantle of responsibility to be the Sect Leader… it was only a matter of time.

And why would she not be?

She was talented. She was strong.

She was beautiful.

"I never get tired of looking at your face," Jiang Xin seductively whimpered as she lifted her palms away from Xu Lu\'s shoulders and carefully touched her left cheek.

"You… you look like perfection."

Xu Lu\'s smile got even wider as she reached into her pocket and pulled out a small hand mirror. She could see her reflection in its surface and just like the last time she checked…

She no longer saw a monster staring back at her.

The face in the mirror had none of the horrific scars, burns and other traces of damage that caused her to live a life concealing her face with a mask and hiding her true appearance from the stares of others.

No… she was… she was pretty.

Plump and sensuous lips, arched brows, deep brown eyes, perfectly shaped contours, and sharp angular cheekbones that would not look out of place on the face of royalty.

Xu Lu did not know how long she had been in this world.

It could have been days. It could have been months. It could have been years.

She had no longer kept count.

The original Xu Lu\'s emotions had been overwhelming at first but now they were fully integrated into her psyche and Xu Lu could now completely understand her perspective and viewpoint.

Why should she return to the outside world?

There was nothing there but pain, hardship, and suffering.

This illusion may be fake but… why did that matter?

She was no longer a monster.

"My dear apprentice," a warm voice suddenly came from the distance. Lei Ying descended down from the sky like a fairy coming down to earth from the heavens.

"Everyone is waiting for you."

Lei Ying spoke with an undertone of respect in her voice. She always loved her disciple and how could she not?

Xu Lu was the perfect daughter, and she was the perfect mother.

There was a strong familial bond between them that no one could ever break apart.

Family was not the people who gave birth to you… but the ones who chose you. Lei Ying had spent the last few decades of her life raising her daughter Xu Lu with all the care and love in the world.

"But mom…" Xu Lu whined as she pouted her lip and stuck out her tongue playfully.

"Come on darling… let\'s go…" Lei Ying\'s lips gently curved upwards as she approached her gorgeous daughter and held her warm palm.

"I promise we can come back here later," Jiang Xin chimed in as she leaned forward and pecked Xu Lu on the cheek one more time for good luck.

Xu Lu stopped teasing her mom and girlfriend and nodded her head. She snapped her fingers and all three of them were suddenly transported to the main hall of the sect leader\'s palace.

As a void stage cultivator on the cusp of reaching the god stage, Xu Lu\'s talent was truly unmatched. She had shattered all previous records when she had become the youngest void stage cultivator in the history of the continent.

Her cultivation techniques were so strong that no one in the younger generation and hell… even most of those far older than her were no longer her match.

Xu Lu was fairly certain that she could even beat the Sect Leader and take his position if she wanted to. It would be child\'s play to take him down and become the next leader of the Holy Sword Sect.

The saintess threw those thoughts to the back of her mind and focused on the scene in front of her. The hall was filled with disciples from all corners of the sect, and they all simultaneously bowed their heads respectfully.

The familiar whispers of admiration entered Xu Lu\'s ears and she paid them a little bit of attention. Like usual, the disciples were all heads over heels in love with her appearance.

"Incredible! Her face is truly a work of art!"

"Such elegance! Such class! She is truly a divine goddess!"

"I\'m a woman but… I WISH SHE COULD GET ME PREGNANT!"

"Marry me! Please! I don\'t mind if I\'m the second wife!"

The men all whispered words of purely platonic admiration for her beauty while the female disciples\' comments had more sexual undertones.

Not that Xu Lu cared about their lovestruck words since she was faithful and had the second most beautiful woman as her loyal girlfriend who would stay by her side for all of eternity.

"Settle down… settle down," Xu Lu laughed softly as she raised up her hand and the entire hall immediately fell silent. Even the elders and senior members of the sect listened to her words respectfully.

"Thank you all for your warm words… it is truly an honour to be here to oversee the latest inter-disciple promotion tournament. I look forward to seeing the results of your hard work."

Xu Lu finished her brief speech, and the entire hall went crazy once more. Disciples exchanged excited looks with each other since they all had one goal in mind.

To impress the saintess in front of them.

"Great speech," Jiang Xin praised lavishly.

"You are so beautiful."

"Thank you… but you don\'t have to tell me that so many times," Xu Lu played off her girlfriend\'s compliment as a joke while still feeling a bit flattered.

"Oh… but darling… your face is truly divine," Jiang Xin continued with a spellbound expression on her face.

"It… it is perfect. I… I love your face."

"Again…" Xu Lu\'s voice now held a faint trace of irritation that she herself did not notice.

"Thank you… but… is that all you like about me?"

"Of course not!" Jiang Xin immediately retorted as she looked at Xu Lu with panic in her eyes. The very thought of upsetting her girlfriend made her stomach churn.

How could she dare? Her girlfriend… she was the greatest woman in the world.

How dare she upset her?!

"I… I was just joking… you don\'t have…" Xu Lu\'s voice trailed off as she saw the frightened expression on her lover\'s face.

"NO! I\'m sorry! Please forgive me! I love you! I love every part of you!" Jiang Xin hurriedly spoke as she grabbed Xu Lu\'s right palm and pulled her in close.

She pressed her lips against Xu Lu\'s cheek and began to pepper her with light kisses with the same if not more amount of affection than before.

Xu Lu took in a deep breath and then gently exhaled. She should not have snapped and asked her girlfriend such a question.

She should have just been content.

As long as Jiang Xin loved her then it did not matter if she was only with her because of her face.

She was no longer a monster.

She was no longer a monster.

She was no longer…
