Cheat Cultivator's Ascension

3/7

"I'm telling you, Zi Yu'er, that prince will really like it if you we're to bring that Su Xiaotian to him, you're close with that young man right?" meanwhile on another place quite far from the other two mentioned, an old withered woman is giving her good advice to a purple-haired alluring beauty, said beauty merely smiling as she looks at the old woman spouting a lot of words to as a reason that supports her idea.

"Yu'er, are you listening?" as the purple-haired alluring beauty starts getting lost on her own thoughts of something while being more and more annoyed with the endless chatter of the old woman, she returns back to her senses as they old woman repeatedly calls on her, her listless face returning her gaze towards the old woman sitting across her own seat.

"Head matron, I'm not quite close with Su Xiaotian that I can just invite him anywhere I want yet" still maintaining a cordial smile on her beautiful face, the purple-haired alluring beauty replies with a gentle tone in her voice, keeping up the act of an obedient girl as she starts having multiple thoughts of murdering the old lady in front of her in her mind.

'Prince this prince that, this old hag is clearly set on expanding this rotten business empire of hers even more, and she can't even do her plans herself!!' thinking about such things, the alluring beauty couldn't help but just sigh to herself as she knows that there's nothing she can do about this lady right now, especially since she's a really strong cultivator as well, not someone she can take on with her Nascent Source Realm cultivation.

"That's fine, you can take your time girl, that young man will be a great gift to the prince" hearing the respectful tone on the alluring beauty's voice, the old woman starts letting out an eerie laugh, something so ear scratching that the alluring beauty couldn't stop filling her mind with the thought of wanting to leave right now, something that she still can't do as the old lady starts lecturing her about ways on how she can pull the greatest genius of the continent according to her own will.

After the tiring session of talking with the head matron of her force, the purple-haired alluring lady moves towards a familiar, hidden lake that only she knows of, just allowing herself to freely float there with her clothing still completely covering her, something that she absentmindedly does as she never felt so exposed ever before, feeling completely helpless amidst all the issues she's facing.

'I don't want to go there…' recalling the excited face of the prince that the head matron is always mentioning with her old mouth, the alluring beauty couldn't help but shiver as she knows that the young man only wants her for something that most men crave, such intent clear on how his eyes refuses to stop roaming around her body when they met for the first time.

"Xiaotian… please save me…" as she laments on her seemingly ill-fated life, the beauty sheds a single drop of crystal-clear tear from her right eye, the image of the prince disappearing on her mind as the image of the last hope she could think of appears in her mind, the image of the immortal-like young man, who made her feel joyful and safe every time she's around him.

On a tavern somewhere, multiple middle-aged people talk with each other, all of them clearly prominent characters of the cultivation society given how respectful the servers of the tavern are, who are just keeping their heads down the entire time they are moving around this particular group of people exuding not only the grandeur of someone of their status, but also the aura of bona fide battle experts.

"We messed up really bad, who would've known that he's that strong?" one of the figures speaks, the seductive voice of the figure spreading all across the tavern, making men dazed on her.

"My sect needs compensation from all of this, it's your fucking plan to attack the little bastard there" another figure speaks, this one having a cloth wrapped around one of his arms, trace of blood seeping through the white cloth.

"M-my sect needs this as well, we loss all kinds of genius from this plan" another person interjected, this one clearly looking way younger than the other figures, making it seemingly perfect for him to act timidly like that.

"Don't worry, Sect Master Wu and Temple Master Hong, your payment will come in due time" another one speaks, a tall figure wearing an embroidered armor towering even over the cursing man, who is clearly quite taller compared to the rest.

"Imperial general, don't think that you can act like that due to your status, know your place" feeling the mocking tone on the armored man's voice, the first man to speak in the group speaks again, letting out an extremely oppressive aura suffocating even the armored man.

"Don't look at my arm like that with that eyes of yours weakling, if you were in my place at that time, you will definitely lose a life or two" stating the obvious, the previously cursing man said as he looks down on the now kneeling armored man, said armored man nodding repeatedly before being let go, coughing countless of times before he finally regains proper bearing of himself.

Watching this scene unfold, the other old timers and veterans couldn't help but admire the stern-looking man's might, something that they wish they also have.

"So, what's the plan now, brother Wu~~~" looking at him with some sort of light coming out of her eyes, the lady with the alluring voice asks, causing everyone to look at her with a weird gaze, the stern looking man also falling into her face as well for a while before finally snapping out of his daze.

"My father will handle this, there's no way that the brat can escape from that technique for long" the stern looking man said with a serious look on his face before standing up, proceeding to move first and leaving the other people in the table to themselves, the lady looking at him with a strange glint on her glowing eyes as if she's thinking of something else.

'Hehehe… Wu Xiaolong, once I get that son of yours, he will definitely be a completely obedient slave for me~~~' thinking about the immortal-like young man that she only saw from the image captured by her disciples, the lady couldn't help but tremble in excitement at the thought of making such talented boy kneel under her skirt, her laughing expressions something so alluring that the other men in the group couldn't help but look dazedly at her, causing the other ladies to look at her with jealousy completely covering their eyes.

"Ahem, Mistress Xie, please control your charm arts" snapping out of the daze first, the armored tall man cleared his throat as he reminded, causing the other men to snap out of their daze as well and prompting the lady to pull back and control herself.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

"Thanks for the reminder Imperial General, if there's nothing important, I will leave as well~~~" looking around, the lady smiles once again before standing up from her seat as well, happily humming a tune as she walks out of the tavern.
