Scarlet looked at both of her companions and said with her hand stretching out in front of her, "Both of you, hold my hands so I can teleport us back to the Twilight Mist Sect!"
However, Asher smirked and pulled both Cecil and Scarlet into his embrace and held both of them close to him, pressing their bodies against his.
Both girls gasped, and their faces blushed a little due to the sudden and intimate contact.
Scarlet looked up to see that Asher was grinning at her mischievously, his handso face looking more devilish than usual.
"What are you doing, Asher?!" She glared at him with puffed cheeks, but that only served to make her look cuter to him.
"Oh, co on! Why do we need to hold hands like kids when we can hug each other like this?" Asher grinned as he felt her soft and supple body against his.
Cecil didn't say anything; instead, she only turned away her gaze while blushing.
anwhile, Scarlet let out a resigned sigh and replied, "Fine! Let's go! I know you won't miss any chance to take advantage of the situation."
Then, she used her sect's identity jade to teleport them back to the Twilight Mist Sect.
Their surroundings distorted as they began to travel through space, leaving the Black Forest behind and heading toward the Twilight Mist Sect.
It was a strange feeling to move through the void like this.
Everything around them was a blur and seed to be moving in slow motion as they sped through the vast expanse.
The sensation of being in a place where everything was silent and still was unsettling.
Asher felt that it was quite different when compared with the Astral Nexus Core Orb's teleportation thod. The latter's experience was peaceful and relaxing.
anwhile, the current situation felt eerie and uncomfortable, as if it would suddenly twist and swallow them at any given mont. It gave off a terrifying vibe.
However, this only lasted a few seconds as their surroundings soon changed from a vast starry space to a huge hall in the Twilight Mist Sect.
The three of them were standing in the center of the huge hall, which had a dod ceiling that reached several ters high.
The floor was made of smooth marble tiles, polished to perfection and reflecting light. There were intricate designs carved into the walls and ceilings, giving the hall a regal and majestic aura.
There were many people bustling about in the hall, coming and going. So were dressed in sect robes, while others wore casual clothing or even armor and weapons.
Upon arriving at the sect, they attracted attention right away, causing a stir among the crowd.
Many sect mbers recognized the beautiful red-haired girl in the group and couldn't help but point and stare.
"Hey, isn't that Miss Scarlet Claymore?"
"Wow! She looks so stunning and beautiful, even more than before!"
"Yeah! How could she beco more amazing? Isn't she already one of the top beauties of the sect?"
"But who the hell is that guy hugging her?! Is she in love with him or sothing?"
anwhile, the young female disciples were all stunned by the man's appearance. His sharp features, intense eyes, and handso face were enough to captivate any woman.
They all beca infatuated with him at first sight. Their hearts fluttered, and they felt the urge to rush forward and hug him.
"Who is he? He's so handso... I've never seen him around before!"
"I'm not sure, but he looks so cool! I wonder if he's single?"
"What the hell are you saying? Don't you already have a boyfriend, stupid?"
"Ah, yeah... But it doesn't hurt to check, right? Besides, my boyfriend is nowhere as handso as that guy!"
"You're hopeless..."
The young n in the crowd, however, weren't too happy with what was happening in front of them. They all beca jealous of the mysterious man, wishing they could be in his place.
"Damn it! Who is that man?! I've never seen him around here, but he's already stealing all the won's hearts!"
"F*cking bastard! What is he, a playboy or sothing?!"
"Hah! What do you expect? With his looks, it's no surprise that he would get all the girls to fall for him! It's just natural selection!"
"Shut the hell up, damn it!"
However, what really shocked them was the other woman who was accompanying these two.
She was a pale-skinned, green-eyed beauty with long, wavy black hair and an hourglass figure.
At first, they didn't recognize her, but when they did, they all exclaid with surprise on their faces.
"No way... Could she be Cecil Sylphiria? How co her beauty has also increased by leaps and bounds?"
"Holy shit, is it possible for soone to be this attractive?"
"Did they all undergo so special cultivation thod to reach this level of beauty? This is ridiculous..."
Scarlet and Cecil, both of them, looked at the gathered crowd and sighed with resignation.
Cecil could feel the desire of the surrounding males burning into her and couldn't help but shiver at the thought of it.
"Ugh, it feels creepy to be stared at like this, Asher. You don't feel anything at all, do you?" She asked Asher while leaning closer to him.
Asher only shook his head with indifference.
However, before he could reply, Scarlet smirked and said, "Of course he wouldn't mind all the attention from the girls; after all, he is a pervert."
Hearing those words, Asher laughed and replied, "Hey, I'm not a pervert, but rather a passionate person who enjoys life to the fullest."
"Right, sure you are," she said as she rolled her eyes, obviously not believing it.
Suddenly, soone approached them and greeted them, "Welco back to the sect, Miss Scarlet, Miss Cecil, and may I know who this man is? I've never seen him in the sect before."
"Greetings, Elder. He is Asher, a friend of mine. He helped a lot during our ti in the Black Forest. And he also plans to join our sect." Scarlet smiled and introduced him to the person.
She had black hair tied into a bun, gentle eyes, and fair skin. Her exquisite beauty was sothing most won could never achieve, no matter how hard they tried.
Her outfit was a long white robe with golden patterns embroidered on its surface, showing off her perfect curves without revealing too much. A white silk veil covered half of her face, hiding her true self.
Her eyes were dark and mysterious, yet her gaze was warm and inviting.
She exuded a refined air of elegance and sophistication, befitting her status.
A hushed silence fell upon the crowd, and everyone stopped whispering. The woman in front of them was no ordinary cultivator but an Elder of the Twilight Mist Sect, Celeste.
Soon, Asher stepped forward and offered a polite bow to the stunning woman in front of him. "I'm Asher. I am pleased to et you, Elder."
The woman admired his respectful and courteous attitude and couldn't help but give a playful smile. She then nodded in acknowledgent and said, "Oh, you're pretty well-mannered. I guess you're going to cause many girls to fall for you, eh?"
She glanced at Scarlet and Cecil, then back at him. A knowing glint flashed in her eyes.

"Well, no matter. You can take this guest token for now and join in the sect recruitnt exam later." The woman took a silver dallion from her space ring and handed it to him.
The na of the sect, 'Twilight Mist Sect' was carved on the surface of the dallion, shining brightly under the light.
Once Asher grabbed the token, it glowed, and a bit of energy flowed from his body into the token before finally vanishing.
"Now, that token is proof that you are a temporary guest of the sect. With it, you can roam within the sect's grounds freely and participate in the recruitnt exam. However, you can't access restricted areas or purchase cultivation resources from the sect. Only sect mbers can do so, understand?" The woman explained to Asher.
Asher nodded, and the elder smiled. Then she turned toward the crowd and waved her hand.
"Alright everyone, return to your daily tasks! Don't waste ti gossiping about others when you should focus on improving yourselves."
The people in the crowd dispersed quickly, afraid of angering the elder.
After making sure that no one else was nearby, the elder turned to Asher and said, "My na is Celeste. If you have any problems or questions about the sect, feel free to find here and ask. However, since you're already acquainted with Miss Scarlet and Miss Cecil, I believe it shouldn't be an issue for you."
"Thank you, Elder Celeste."
With that said, Celeste bid farewell to them and left the three alone.
Cecil let out a sigh of relief when Elder Celeste finally departed and whispered to Asher, "That lady is one of the Core Elders in the sect and is extrely powerful. Be careful around her, as she is in charge of this teleportation zone's security."
Scarlet also added, "Yes, although she seems kind and friendly on the outside, she is very dangerous and unpredictable."
"Well, I am quite good when it cos to dealing with won. I don't think I'll have much trouble getting along with her." Asher answered with confidence, which caused both Scarlet and Cecil to roll their eyes at him.
He then continued speaking, "Anyway, why don't you show around the sect while we head to your mother's place?"
Scarlet nodded, "Okay, let's go!"
