"Big Sis, I still can't believe how incredible those two were...even Luke manage to crack your calm shell!" Back in the Xia manor since the cousin and Xiao's left, the Xia siblings were sitting around in Yuanba's cauldron room, still reminiscing today outrageous events.

That is until with the biggest smile on his face Yuanba unintentionally made Qingyue fluster with a bright blush on her face, blurting out,

"He-He didn't crack anything! I was just interested in his talents..." Even the words and tone she used couldn't help Qingyue convinced herself of this time. Just talking about him still caused little tingles in her stomach.

"Ehh? Really? But even during your trips with Senior Yueil, you always kept calm no matter what talents others have. I mean, also think Luke is cool too, Sis." His implying words caused Qingyue to turn her face away from him spouting out,

"I'm not speaking on this anymore!"

"Oh my, it seems that young man and young woman left quite an impression on you two." A calm, methodical voice that soothes into the Xia siblings' ears caused them to turn to the door with a brightened expression.

"Yea mom, they weren't like anyone we ever saw before! I even got a chance to meet up with Luke and Andrea later this week, so we all can delve more into World Spiritists cultivation."

To who Yuanba was talking to was, of course, the beautiful Senior Dongxue. During the whole coarse of the cousin visit, she felt her soul stir, notably when they both advanced to the Nascent realm, which made her curiosity to them peak.

"I see that sounds wonderful. They're not too far from here, so I'm sure they'll come back soon." For some reason or another, what her mother said got Qingyue interest. It was a small but budding desire that wouldn't go down, no matter how hard she tried to squash it.

"Um...mother, can we talk privately later." The slight blushing face of her daughter spoke volumes to Senior Dongxue. Now more than ever, the boy Luke is quite mysterious in her mind.

"Sure, honey, I'm actually quite interested in hearing your opinion on an interesting matter."

….

"Well, well, well, little weirdo Luke managed to score a date in all of three days? I think that's how long it been, but still, that's quite impressive. And she's a delectable beauty too." The teasing voice of Andrea called out to Luke as they both sat on their beds of the inn.

Despite wanting to get a rise out of him, all Luke did was shrug saying,

"I said it with Spooky; it's not a date but just us getting to know each other better. Besides, in our previous world, I rarely went on dates there, and I don't even know if cultivators even go on dates here. At least not to my knowledge."

"Hm? Is that so? Well then, you also have that promised to get together with Qingyue too, you know? Is that also not a date?" Rolling his eyes at his cousin's questioning tone did get Luke to think about the relationships in these kinds of universes.

Being a slightly odd average joe from his world, he always did find it entertaining to read and watch all these women flock to a protagonist. But personally, for him, he never had great luck at all with relationship and more prefer to get a thrill from the supernatural.

It didn't mean he wasn't interested just that he didn't have a lot of chances.

Although now that he was here, the thought of polygamy relationship did interest him, but he always found it odd on how one can genuinely manage multiple relationships.

Luke didn't have a desire to go out and conquer the beauties of the world, and he feels like at least the women should feel special and love in these relationships.

It was just that there really is only one guy, so how could he be attentive to like even four women at the same time? Or in some cases of these novels eight at the same time?

Furthermore, Luke wasn't so terrible in feelings that he couldn't tell Xiao Lingxi small crush on him or Xia Qingyue taking an interest in him, but...

'Uh, aren't you overthinking this? Don't forget our souls tower above this universe. And if you truly wish always to be attentive to your partners, I have numerous ways to achieve it. But first and for most, you must have a soul mark connection between you and the woman. A soul mark connection goes far beyond anything you ever saw before.'

Spooky called out to him, happy that things were progressing this way.

'I mean, I was only thinking about it. But who I'm kidding? Having multiple women sounds great, but I more so want a stable, happy relationship where I can always be together with my girlfriend than something interrupting it.' Luke explained his thoughts since he knows the separation plots that can happen in these novels. And Luke wanted none of that.

'Relax, if you ever do form a full soul mark connection, the two of your strength will grow massively and never stop improving. And like I said before if you do have multiple relationships, I have perfect ways for you to make all of them feel special and loved. Plus, you'll be able to spend all your time with each woman without any complicated drama.' Given off all that Spooky can do without even at a third of power, it was an enticing chance to Luke.

'Well, for now, I'm just going to focus all of my attention on Lingxi and Qingyue cause I do like them. We'll cross that multiple roads when it comes. Though I suppose with your interference and this curse, I'm gonna have to deal with it soon. Speaking off, is it time yet for you to teach me how to control this curse?'

'Not yet. Soon but not now. And don't ask about you what saw in your enlightened state I know you were going to. It isn't the right time now. All you need to do is just never hesitate, go for it and trust me you'll be able to handle it all.' Spooky's confident tone did alleviate some concerns of Luke, but he still wasn't entirely sure.

After all, nearly everything here was the first time for him, and the possibility of screwing up is there.

"Come now, Luke, I thought you wanted to experience everything in this universe? Something like your little date tomorrow should greatly interest you, not dissuade you." Andrea chided with her advice, and instantly it caused a reaction in Luke.

"Yea...you're right! No matter what I'm going to focus on, make sure Lingxi has a fun time tomorrow!" Indeed I do need more confidence; I have a tremendous gift inside me after all! Luke thought to himself as any nervousness or hesitation went down once he solely thought about spending time with Xiao Lingxi.

"Now that's better...still do you have any idea on what to do tomorrow? Like you I'm also very limited in this field." Since Luke is now thinking in tune with his fused soul, a light bulb went off in his mind.

"A World Spiritists have many hidden abilities. And from Martial Wold Runic master mirrors those abilities. Say, Andy, ready to get dazzled by something?" Luke had a mysterious smile as both his hands ignited in blue cloak soul Spirit Power, making Andrea interested in what he was going to do...

….

Walking down the stairs to the front of the inn resting area, Luke felt calm. For today he left his axe with Andrea since just relying on his soul Spirit Power he was confident to deal with any threat from this city.

Luke's mind became resolute since no matter what, he will take the initiative on any aspect of his life. Even if his curse and Spooky have him form more than one relationship with a woman, he'll just own up to it and have them feel true happiness and love like he wants to gain.

But first, Luke notices the beautiful Xiao Lingxi sitting alone at a table constantly twiddling her thumbs. It seems she decided to spiff up a bit for their meeting, as Luke notice her bright red cherry lips was more dazzlingly thanks to makeup, he assumes. Her cheeks were a bit rosier, and she wore a violent red robe that perfectly wrapped around her bewitching body.

Although all Luke wonder was, since when did cultivators have makeup?

Shaking his head at this small thought, Luke went up to Xiao Lingxi saying,

"Glad to see you here, Lingxi, you look great! Didn't make you wait too long now?"

"Oh-Ah! L-Luke! You look great too! And no, you didn't make me wait; I just got here." As he sat in front of her, Luke could pick the slight nervousness on her. Perhaps since it's probably her first time doing this with another boy so to break the ice Luke asked,

"Thanks again for showing Andy and me this inn. Our sense of choosing isn't the best, and those beds was a welcome rest. But for you to know about it, you must travel around this city and other places a lot, huh?"

"Oh, it's only natural, I do! When I was younger, I used to bug my father and Yun'er a lot to take me places around the city. And now it's always fun to go out with Yun'er on any cultivating trips." Seeing that natural smile blossom got Luke to know, he was heading in the right direction, and now he was going to ask a question that always plagued his minds about these characters.

"Really now? Quite adventurous, eh? But besides cultivating trips or cultivation in general, what other things would you like to get up to?" Honestly, in a world where people can live for eons and tear up planets, what do they do for fun?

This isn't the modern world, and besides the obvious battling, killing, or general exploring, it was always an interesting question for him.

And getting asked that question caused Xiao Lingxi to falter a bit. Truly she haven't interacted much outside her current friends and families. Still, most of the time, topis would get center on the various aspect of cultivation or other Empire related news.

It just never seemed to bother anyone to always talk about cultivation, but still, she said,

"Um, I like to read sometimes or ah, explore the forest sometimes, and whenever the city throws a huge festival here, I like to participate in it."

As far surpassed these universes are, I think it's time to change up the traditional pace! Luke thought as he smiled and said,

"I see, hey, you know I got a great idea on how to have some fun and still get to know each other better. That is, if you're up for it?" He put his hand with a challenging smirk, and Xiao Lingxi gave her own little grin and firmly grasped his hands.

"Ok, you're on then, Luke!"

It wasn't until Luke pulled her up from the seat that Xiao Lingxi noticed they were holding hands. The connection warmth the two felt was back in full force, and Xiao Lingxi honestly didn't want to let go.

Only this was just too embarrassing doing it in front of all these peoples!

Luke showed little shame and looking at the scarlet red face of Xiao Lingxi he held her hand tighter saying,

"Your hand is astonishingly soft, smooth, and pleasant, you know?" His teasing smile and warm words caused Xiao Lingxi to feel her heart tingle, but she glared up to Luke with an adorable pout.

"Can we just leave now?!"

….

In an isolated part of the forest near Floating Cloud City, Luke still held Xiao Lingxi's hand as she remained rather quiet throughout their walk. But the warmth they felt between each other made it for a pleasant type of calm.

Once Spooky informed him, no one will show up at their spot. Luke let go of Xiao Lingxi's hand, igniting his own in blue cloak soul Spirit Power. She felt a small disappointment when Luke let go of her hands, but her eyes were instantly taken by the Spirit Power.

"Ready to see something simple but magical?"

'Whir!'

From three fingertips of both of Luke's hands shot out unique-looking profound images! His first fingertip had an elegantly design blue color scissors coming out of it, which got followed up by a uniquely crafted blue piece of paper. And the third was of a beautiful blue fist.

To Xiao Lingxi's eyes, even the average fist and paper look strangely magnificent! It was like the two got crafted in precious blue diamond, but Luke's projections look far more fantastic even then. The only projection she didn't recognize was the odd shape blades.

"Holy, Luke! To think you can make such ordinary things look wonderful!" Luke smiled as his practice from last night paid off. While this was only scratching the surface of this ability, Luke knew that soon he would be able to project many more things from his original world.

And one day, he could even recreate objects from his first world!

"Here, grab my other hand, to start of our little game." Holding his left hand to Xiao Lingxi's face, she felt enchanted by it, and when her hand touches with his, Lingxi's eyes widened.

Instantly on her three fingertips was the same image projection Luke created!

"Now then we're going to play Spirit Rock, Paper, Scissors! Basically, by wiggling your fingers, you can choose which projection you want to move. And using these projections, when I count to three, you pick out whatever projections you want to counter mines. It goes like this Rock beats scissors, paper beats rocks, and scissors beat paper. If one us manages to beat each other, then we can ask one question of anything we want. And it has to be a good question!" Luke explained as Xiao Lingxi got dumbfounded on how Luke came up with such a game.

"I never heard of this kind of game before? Oh! Is this supposed to be something where you study your opponent to tell they're thinking?"

"Sort of. Well, let's just do a demonstration. Remember on three! One, two, three!"

'BANG!'

Fabulous blue Spirit Power spewed out in the forest as Luke's Spirit rock clashed with Xiao Lingxi hasty use the Spirit scissors. Beautiful blue sparks rained in between them, and their hair swept up in the wind.

The trees bushes and vines as well swayed in a rhythmic dance from their clashes like a blossoming garden.

This is probably the most dramatic way to play a simple game, but it does give it more pizazz. Luke thought and said to Xiao Lingxi,

"So, do you get it now?"

To be quite honest, she could admit it was a magical clash doing this game. The impact that ranged out was surprisingly soothing to listen too, and her eyes got dazzled by the spectacular effects.

And as well her blood pump since this looks like quite the fun game to play!

"Prepare Luke cause now I'm going to get serious!"
