Chapter 113: Guests.
—
Shaking her head, Ying Yue replied, "Master doesn't need to remind me anymore. Yue knows how to act and how not to act so that master can build the concubines smoothly. So, master, don't torture your mental spirit anymore, which could create a mental demon later, because it's uncomfortable knowing that, at the end of the day, Yue is just master's plaything. But Yue also knows that master won't force us to do something drastic if we truly don't want to. Yue clearly understands that master is doing this to establish a clear boundary between the love for his wife and the love for his subjects. So, once again, master doesn't need to tell Yue this anymore because Yue knows her role."
Sighing, seeing that his sweetheart clearly understood his struggle—how he must keep calling them servants, even though in his heart, he doesn't want to see his concubines that way—it still needed to be said, although it pained him every time. Shaking his head and pulling her into a hug, kissing the top of her head, Tian Xing then corrected what he had just said, "Come, sweet. Let's greet one of your potential sisters. And not only that, can master ask for Ying Ying's help this time? Master wants her to become my lover. Is that okay with Yue?"
Hearing his gentle tone and tender words—so different from before, and truly reflecting her master's kind and compassionate nature, with only the slight drawback of wanting to be surrounded by friends with benefits when it comes to lust—Ying Yue nodded and simply answered, "Everything master wants, this humble servant will do. And also… It's okay with me, Tian Xing. I don't mind having another sister. The more there are, the more exciting it is. Because it's lonely when you're busy with something, babe."
Shaking his head as she turned back into her Jaina Proudmoore persona, Tian Xing kissed her passionately to show that he liked both of her personalities without exception. Breaking the kiss breathlessly, he then turned around, saying, "Come, sweet. Let's greet our guests."
Returning to her Ying Yue persona once again, she nodded and replied, "Yes, master."
Walking one meter behind her master, to signal to everyone that their status was master and servant, Ying Yue lowered her head as much as possible, becoming a silent observer, only doing what her master wanted her to do, with no thoughts of her own. Exiting the cave, they walked non-stop for about two months to the sound of battle, which had already died down, leaving behind many deep craters in what was once a dense forest, and numerous traces of Wuxing elements from the martial arts used by both parties. Arriving at the largest crater, they saw four people surrounding a lone woman in the middle, her foundation damaged, dropping her cultivation from the sixth stage of Meridian Refining to the fifth stage of Blood Refining.
Having many variants that lived in modern society, where they read many Xianxia tropes and Xuanhuan stories, Ying Yue listened silently to their taunts and jeers, feeling nostalgic for some reason.
"Hahahaha! It's really a Skin Refinement ant! I thought this trash was a hidden expert or something because he suddenly appeared before our eyes! But it's nothing more than an insect that doesn't know the difference between heaven and earth!"
"No, Brother Alex Guo, the earth isn't even worthy of being placed on the same level as this vermin. This ant belongs between latrine pits for the lowly mortals. Stinky and reeking of polluted muck, its only purpose is to stain the name of cultivators with its rotten Spiritual Roots."
"Hmm, does this trivial bug have servants? Tch, tch, if you had come here alone, brat, I might have spared you just for your dedication to ascending to our heavens. But seeing this jade beauty wasted on you, sorry child, I might have gone overboard just breaking your leg this time. Hmm, maybe letting you watch as I love this jade beauty will be sufficient? No, let's plant Gu inside your head to amplify 7 Emotions and 6 Desires, then destroy—I mean love—this jade beauty. That's better."
Seeing her master suddenly feel nostalgic as well—since it had been a long time since they witnessed people courting death within their own society during the time they became Dao Ancestors and Mei Li—Ying Yue chuckled and shook her head, clearly aware of their impending fate. However, she couldn't help but raise an eyebrow when she noticed the last person frowning, his eyes unfocused, as if reading something invisible. Realizing this person was likely a transmigrator or something similar, she easily guessed his motivation for being there: to court Yelena Belova, the woman trapped in the middle, by saving her at the lowest point of her life.
Knowing that, like her master, this person also wanted to collect fantasy women, Ying Yue shook her head, knowing her method wouldn't work on a former spy like Yelena, who could easily guess the man's motivation with just a glance. After listening to their jeers and comments, which went in one ear and out the other without taking them to heart—since they would satisfy their revenge later when their cultivation was abolished—Ying Yue finally understood how her master would finish these people off, despite being five—no, four—stages higher than them since they were now able to cultivate.
"Yue, you kill the reincarnator and the kid who spoke to us first. Leave the rest to master, since they'll be good test subjects for a psychological experiment."
Seeing the middle-aged man eyeing her lasciviously and the scholarly, elegant-looking kid, Ying Yue shook her head, knowing their future cruel fate since, when it comes to experiments, her master truly has no bottom line, except when the experiment affects innocent lives. Just remembering one of the many stories from Matriarch Margarita about how her master made Radovid and Mannimarco eat each other's excrement to see if it improved their homoerotic relationship, made Ying Yue shiver at the thought.
