—————————————————
On a pathway of the bustling fragrance city, five people, two men and three women, walked with grace and powerful step. But no matter where they passed no one would pay them any attention. This was because of the strong aura these people, especially two in the front, emitted.
These five were Yang Feng, Shan Qing Luo, Yang Kai, Qiu Yi Meng and Luo Xiao Man. After leaving the spider mother nest, it has been more than ten days.
During these days, they spent a few days to heal to their fullest, well mostly others as Yang Feng only needed just a few hours to heal from the battle with the spider mother.
...
~(Flashback Starts)~
After having left the nest, Yang Feng and the other four made there way a little away to a cave near the nest. After reaching the cave he called Shan Qing Luo and gave her bottle containing myriad drug liquid to resolve her backlash and also gave her the vemon he had collected earlier.
Looking at the two jade bottles and knowing what they contained, she broke out in a gentle smile and said, "hehe ... Looks like I will have to thank you for quite alot ... *Hah* but what can little poor ol' me can possibly give to a powerful and wealthy person like you."
After this her face changed to a 'reluctant' look as she continued with a sigh," *sigh* looks like I don't have another choice...", while saying this she raised her arms and embraced her body as if afraid, "... Looks like I will have to use my body to repay you.", and revealed a vernerable look that did little to hide the seductive and provocative look in her eyes.
Yang Feng seeing this was amused and aroused but also exasperated and to teach the minx a lesson, he spanked her butt with some force, "Behave and go heal for now, you minx.", This action of his elected a slight squeal from her as she pouted and rubbed her but while complaining about 'abusive' and 'insensitive' men and following his words went to heal.
He then called Yang Kai, who along with the other two girls on logs they had made from the trees, and the two talked about their experiences over the last few months.
Yang Kai told him how during the trial he meet many people and formed many connections and how after he exited the nether mountain realm, he found himself somewhere within the Ash-Gray Cloud 'Evil' Land. He then went on to tell how for the last two months he has been near constantly been fighting cultivators of devil path, which also stimulated his growth.
After this Yang Feng also told him about how after sending him off with the sect master, he has been mostly cultivating and only went out briefly. He then told him how High Heaven Pavilion was attacked by Yang Bai, who was their father's junior brother, and how that guy had injured the sect master and nearly destroyed the entire sect.
He also told him that during one of his adventures, he went through a problem and suffered a setback which limited his strength, but he didn't tell that part in detail as he still wanted to hold his dignity as the strong and reliable elder brother. Though he just didn't want to tell how he was maltreated by an opponent as it would be embarrassing for him, which he was certain Yang Kai would make sure of.
He then explained how the sect was attacked by Qiu Family and what lead him to come here. This also explained to Yang Kai what Qiu Yi Meng meant with her words earlier in the cave. After that he gave some myriad drug liquid to Yang Kai as well so that he could recover and heal.
Then ignoring the two girls for now he started to meditate and focus on recovering as well, he had something in mind for the two.

...
"So, this is the city under your command huh, neat.", Yang Feng said to Shan Qing Luo as they were walking through the city, going towards her Courtyard.
Shan Qing Luo looked to be proud of his praise and said, "Yes it is. You will find that among the cities under the Evil Kings, this to be the most flourishing city. This was once just a small city during my mother's reign, this is where I grew up..."
Looking at her being boastful about the city and how at first her mother and then herself had made the city flourished, Yang Feng smiled. This is one of those times when she looked so ... Real. Talking about her mother and her own success, without her usually seductive and minx type behavior. She just looked to be a normal women who was strolling through her favorite place.
As they talked, during which she grabbed on to his forearm and hugged it to her bosom, they reached a small bridge built over a large pond which lead to her Courtyard's gates. The two girls who had bitterly been following them feeling nervous for their fate asked her, "Elder Sister Shan, about the promise we made earlier ...".
Shan Qing Luo looked amused and told Qiu Yi Meng who had spoken," Hmm ... You don't have to worry too much. After some time keeping you two here, you will be free to go.", hearing this Qiu Yi Meng inquired cautiously," how long?, exactly."
<Make her suffer for a while>, Shan Qing Luo who was already amused, became even more so when Yang Feng sent her this voice transmission. "Well ... That depends on my mood."
Qiu Yi Meng who had been hoping for a good answer, deflated upon getting the worst possible answer. After speaking Shan Qing Luo pressed her hand on the beautifully carved wooden gates of her Courtyard, causing them to open.
Once the gates were open and they five passed through the intersection, they heard a loud but sweet feminine voice," Who Goes There!?".
They turned to look at a young women standing a few steps away from them. She was a youthful young maiden with long Pestal Pink color hair and aqua color eyes. Her petite but slightly developed form encased in a light parrot color short dress. The wibe around her was that of a innocent but sensual little beauty.
The girl upon seeing them was a little surprised, but as her gaze shifted to Shan Qing Luo, her eyes widened as she exclaimed in a overly joyous voice," My Queen! Your finally back!", while she said this she leapt towards Shan Qing Luo as if to embrace her.
But she paused for just a second as she saw Shan Qing Luo arm-in-arm with the handsome black haired man, before she continued on and hugged Shan Qing Luo and pushed her a bit away from the man, then held her arm just like she had been holding the man's, all the while glaring at the said man.
Turning towards Shan Qing Luo, her glare was instantly gone as she said, "You don't know how worried I was, mistress. I got a news that the beast king and his men had ambushed you and you were seriously injured."
{A-Note: The Tyrannical Force King is also called the Beast King. So the titles might get mixed up, but know that it's the same guy.}
"Bi Luo *hah*, as you can see I'm perfectly fine.", Shan Qing Luo said with a small smile. While on the sides the three of the four were giving Bi Luo a particular look that, with the fourth one being amused.
'So she's Bi Luo ... well I have to say that the novel nor the manhua did her any justice... Now that I think about it, aren't all the females more beautiful than they were portrayed.', Yang Feng thought as he observed her and Shan Qing Luo.
<Don't have any thoughts about her, alright? Lover boy.>, Yang Feng raised an eyebrow at the message Shan Qing Luo had sent her. His expressions reflected only one though 'really, that's the best you think of me'. Seeing his expressions Shan Qing Luo just snorted and focused on what Bi Luo was saying.
"Bi Luo, arrange for the three to stay in the Fragrance Guest House." Shan Qing Luo ordered Bi Luo, signaling towards Yang Kai, Qiu Yi Meng and Xiao Man. Bi Luo then ordered a few maidservants to take them away.
"What about him, my Queen?", Bi Luo said with a barely hidden edge in her voice which both Yang Feng and Shan Qing Luo ignored. Shan Qing Luo for her part said with a mischievous smile, "take him to the Tranquil Phoenix Pavilion to rest."
The next second, Bi Luo loudly exclaimed, "The Tranquil Phoenix Pavilion!?". Shan Qing Luo smirked as if getting the expected reaction she had wanted and told Yang Feng, "After all that travelling you must be tired so stay there for sometime. I will come visit you after finishing some work."
"Also don't bully her too much. She's like a little sister to me.", Saying that in a slightly lower tone, she left towards her cultivation chamber, leaving behind a nodding Yang Feng and a very irritated and angry Bi Luo. Bi Luo then turned to him and practically growled, "Come with me!".
Yang Feng just sighed and followed her. During the entire time, Bi Luo was ignoring him and mumbling something, probably cursing him. As they reached their destination, Bi Luo opened the doors of the Pavilion, which was a small manor, with stars in her eyes and jumped on Shan Qing Luo's bed.
As Yang Feng entered the Pavilion house and looked around the white and pink interior and the great artistic designs stated," Not bad."
Bi Luo who heard this sprung up from the bed and shouted, "Not Bad!?" And approached Yang Feng, pointing her finger at his chest, poking him," What do you mean 'Not bad'!? This is the pavilion where Her Majesty used to live when she was younger. Do you even know how difficult it is to just enter this place! I have been pestering her for a long time to let me live here but she never lets me and now an outsider like you was honored to live here and you say 'Not bad'!"
Yang Feng just looked at her blankly and knowing where this was going, looked into her eyes and for the first time after entering the city released his cultivation aura. As soon as he did so, Bi Luo who was looking him in the eyes suddenly closed her open mouth, swallowing what she was about to say.
She hadn't felt this powerful of an aura ever, not even from her queen who was at the peak of the Immortal Ascension Realm. Yang Feng saw that she had finally quietened down, lowered his aura a bit and addressed her.
"Bi Luo. Know this that although you worship Shan Qing Luo, doesn't mean that others follow your example as well. To you she's your goddess an unapproachable person. But to me, she's just one of the girls around me, someone I can approach without hesitating."
'Well, not just any girl, but one of my wives or eventual wives.', he then continued, "Now as she had said, I am a guest and will be living here. So it would be best for you if you don't antagonize me ... or I'll have to teach you a lesson.", he finished with a smirk and flicked her forehead with a little force.
Bi Luo who had been listening to his words was stunned and yelped when he flicked her forehead. As she was about to rebuke him with her hands covering her reddened forehead, she remembered the pressure he exerted on her and saw that he was already laying down on the bed.
She was unwillingly and furious but helplessly stomped outside the pavilion, closing the door behind her.
Yang Feng on the other hand after seeing her leave, felt a little mentally tired. He hadn't slept since he had woken up from his unconscious state and the events that had followed had put a strain on his mind.
At his cultivation, although he didn't require to sleep, he still preferred to do so at times. So feeling the exhaustion, he sighed and slowly succumbed to the realm of dreams.
