The Hedonist Sword God

Chapter 276: Using the Hourglass of Sacrifice

Once the two of them started to go at it, Jian Shen almost forgot about taking the time into consideration due to which he spent a few hours with Xinyi on the bed.

During this even though they didn't really have sex the entire time and spent fooling around and just enjoying their time together, the two of them who hadn't really been talking with each other for quite a while due to it being a little awkward felt all caught up with each other.

At the same time, even after they finished playing around with each other they stayed on the bed and just kept on hugging each other for no specific reason.

Due to this, by the time Jian Shen felt the World Crest and went back outside almost half a day had passed and everyone was gathered and waiting for him to arrive so that they could continue exploring the ruins.

So, when Jian Shen came out of nowhere and started acting as if what he did was nothing special none of them even felt like they had what it took to step up and ask him where he went or what just happened.

"Honey!"

A little surprised from being called in such a way just like the others were, Jian Shen could only turn around when Meirong who was running towards him jumped and hugged him.

"I missed you so much, honey."

What the hell? When did she turn so cheerful?

"Did something good happen? You seem the most cheerful since I met you."

Hugging Meirong while ignoring the looks from the others, Jian Shen felt that something about her and changed but he wasn't able to figure out what it actually was.

"Nothing. I'm just happy to see you back. I was afraid that something happened to you."

"Oh, really?"

Not saying anything even though he sensed the weird atmosphere and a single individual missing front he group, Jian Shen started walking ahead while Meirong walked right beside him.

"Hhhhh?"

Taking a deep breath as she was walking beside Jian Shen while hugging his arm, Meirong suddenly frowned and asked, "Why do you smell of another woman, honey?"

"Huh? Wha... "

Cutting Jian Shen off before he could even finish speaking, Meirong said, "Just kidding! Hahahahahahah, you should've seen how your face just looked.."

Smiling as if she really had just been kidding, Meirong managed to make Jian Shen feel a little at ease but he just couldn't forget how scary her eyes looked when she asked him that question.

He wasn't missing some important details, right?

Taking out the small hourglass since he didn't have anything else to do, Jian Shen who now knew how to use it was ready to start using it.

Right now Jian Shen only had two ways to offset Meirong's bad luck.

It was by using a lot of treasures or using his own lifespan.

If he wanted to use treasures he'd probably have to give up an entire warehouse of the many that Qingyu had built inside the World Crest.

If he wanted to give his life spam however he only needed to sacrifice ten years of his life to offset her bad luck by one year.

Sure sacrificing ten years for one year seemed like a very low return, but given the fact that Jian Shen's current estimated life span was roughly around 15,000 years due to his superior cultivation technique, special bloodline, and the near Immortal physique obtained from being baptized by the Heavenly Tribulations.

Therefore, sacrificing ten years was truly nothing special even it was for only offsetting Meirong's bad luck by just one year.

Holding the tiny Hourglass of Sacrifice in his hand, Jian Shen started using it and filled one side of the empty hourglass with his lifespan.

Considering that the one who possessed this treasure could even sacrifice an entire Realm like the Mortal Realm, Divine Realm and so on, when Jian Shen sacrificed a total of ten years of his life span all that was formed was a single grain of sand.

Seeing this made Jian Shen think as if his lifespan was like water and not that worthy.

Chuckling in resignation, Jian Shen while holding the hourglass placed his hand on Meirong's back.

"Aaaaahhhh honey... We shouldn't do this here."

"What are you thinking about? I'm offsetting your bad luck."

"Huh?"

Blinking her eyes in surprise and then sighing heavily, Meirong pouted a little due to having imagined something else entirely.

Seeing all of this made Jian Shen feel as if Meirong had changed way too much in a single day.

Having not even spoken too many words until now and always remained quiet and looked like a shy girl, how was she suddenly looking like a mature woman who only thought about sex and such similar things the whole time?

"Hey, are you okay?"

"Me? I've never felt any better in my entire life."

Truly Meirong was feeling very good due to not just because she was hugging her prince charming but even clearly feeling something very weird and ugly aura surrounding her disappear.

This went to show how terrible the bad luck which Jian Shen offset was.

"It's you whom I should ask that question. Having gone through so much to just save me, I should be worried if you are all right. But don't worry, even if you aren't fine I'll take care of you forever honey."
