“So ladies of Xiling, if you want to snag a wealthy, martial arts adept husband, do not forget,” Tang Luo said with a charming smile, “At least reach the peak of the Mortal Realm in your cultivation, otherwise, you won’t even have the qualifications to share a bed.”
The booming voice of the Divine Storage that was opened resonated like a godly edict spreading throughout Xiling, turning the faces of the three young ladies deathly pale.
Pan Xichang had never felt so desperate. It seed unfathomable that their collaborated strategy could be thwarted for such a ludicrous reason. She looked longingly at Xu Sheng in her sorrowful state, hoping for so help. But the young gentleman only kept his head held high, a stark contrast to his gentle deanor the day before.
-How could this happen?” Pan Xichang felt a sourness in her heart. From the day Xu Sheng set foot in Xiling, the Wind dia of the Pan family pegged him as their primary observation target.
After several months of intelligence analysis, their plan involving the courtesans beca the best the four clans could devise. Given their understanding of Xu Sheng’s character, they knew him to be a man of sensitivity and kindness beneath his decisive exterior. He treated won with tenderness, not even belittling the elderly prostitutes.
Soone like him, a gentleman of his stature, would never decline their offer.
From the start, the goal of the four clans was not for their daughters to marry into the Xu Clan of Yuanzhou. Even in their arrogance, they had no illusions of their daughters becoming Xu Sheng’s legal wives. Their initial target was for their daughters to be by Xu’s side, even as handmaidens without any formal recognition.
If Tang Luo hadn’t interfered, facing such a scenario, Xu Sheng would surely soften and take the maidens in. But now, even their qualifications to follow were stripped by Tang Luo.
Pan Xichang couldn’t accept it. As her sche fell through, her only remaining option was to take in a son-in-law, who would likely be a crude martial artist, good for nothing but martial arts. She would rather die than place her life in the hands of such person!
The plan of the four families was ruined by Tang Luo and how could she not harbor resentnt? Yet sadly, she lacked the strength to retaliate.
Not only the three ladies, even the Xiling spectators could no longer justify Xu Sheng’s actions. As Tang Luo said, due to the significant gap in realms, won lost even the basic functions of intimacy, so how could they present their love.
So in the crowd start to pity the three infatuated ladies. Considering their noble families, they had nurous cultivation thods to choose, surrounded by master teachers. Why wouldn’t they train? Even if they reached the peak level of the Mortal Realm, they wouldn’t be this spurned.
Although such reasoning might convince people of Xiling, it couldn’t hold true to Xiao Ziyu. He had just argued with Tang Luo, but was t with disregard.
Now Xiling revered him as their top-level master who had shed his mortal self, while Tang Luo rely enjoyed so popularity as a social parasite. He had fought Xu Sheng on the stage once, and he was just bullying others due to his privileged position. This man have the audacity to ignore him made Xiao Ziyu furious, retorting, “Nonsense! If won are that fragile, why hasn’t any courtesan died from Xu’s nights of debauchery?”
Tang Luo looked down at Xiao Ziyu, truly puzzled why this flashy-dressed, attention-seeking man kept intruding, only making things more complicated. However, since he had posed a question, Tang Luo seized the opportunity to advertise his own establishnt. Though the Tianxiang Building was already the foremost brothel of Xiling, there was no harm in centing its place and promoting its culture.
“Ahem.” Tang Luo cleared his throat, “Xu typically spends his nights at the Tianxiang Building. The girls there, while prostitutes, have trained since childhood. Choose any girl to ask, and you will find that their cultivation has at least reached the peak of the Mortal Realm. So have even reached the realm of shedding their mortal self. Only these won can withstand a martial artist’s prowess in bed. Even so, Xu needs eight per night. Is that clear enough?”
A buzz spread through the crowd as nurous male eyes turned on Xu Sheng. Not all n frequented brothels. Most could scarcely handle their own wives. But Xu Sheng, besides his nightly revelries, revealed an astounding capacity. “No wonder he isn’t interested in the young ladies…” the onlookers thought. Such a man, his choice in a woman might not concern her beauty, but perhaps her durability.
Tang Luo did not care about the potential impact of his words on Xu Sheng’s reputation in Xiling, especially considering that he had declared his indifference towards honor.
Looking at the three young ladies with their ardor diminished, and observing the complex expressions of the onlookers, Tang Luo knew it was ti to conclude this farce.
He calmly addressed the four stewards of the Fierce Realm, “I have made it quite clear. The young ladies are not suited for Xu. Please, leave!
The humiliation of being ousted face-to-face left the young ladies from the four distinguished families stunned, their pitiful gaze fixing on Tang Luo. It felt as if the universe was playing a cruel joke, despite their deep affections, the ladies, who could have had any man in Xiling, were just not enough for Xu Sheng. The wedding proposal looked to be falling apart when suddenly, Bie ng had a brilliant idea.
“Tang Tianjiao, you imply that I am unfit for Xu only because of my cultivation level. You also ntioned those courtesans who rely reached the peak of the Mortal Realm. Does that imply I can be with Xu as long as I reach the peak of Mortal Realm?” Bie ng asked, fluttering her large eyes toward Tang Luo. When Pan Xichang and Bai Jie heard what Bie ng had to say, their eyes lit up, gazing expectantly at the stage.
To many, if one doesn’t cultivate by their early twenties, it typically ans remaining an ordinary person their whole life. However, noble families like Pan and Bai have perford uncountable experints proving that as long as the “Foundation Building” stage is completed in childhood, even starting cultivation in one’s thirties would be perfectly fine. It would take no more than three years for an average person to reach the peak of the Mortal Realm.
The ladies didn’t train because it was futile against family warriors. But to endure three years of rigorous training for a chance to be with a gentleman like Xu Sheng was an opportunity they wouldn’t mind taking up.
After all, even the offspring of a third-rank sect would find many ladies scrambling to fawn over him, let alone Xu Sheng, who represented the Xu Clan throughout Yuanzhou.
Tang Luo looked at Bie ng, lost in thought. Won indeed were formidable. When fighting for their happiness, they show incredible boldness and resourcefulness. He was even tempted to oblige their wish.
“Ehl” Tang Luo turned to Xu and whispered, “Are you sure you can’t take them? Sharing your bed with Nuan Nuan wouldn’t be so bad. Look, see how eager they are!”
“Stop joking,” Xu Sheng replied with a bitter face, plagued by inner turmoil. If he were a mber of the Wang family or the An family, he would have no problem taking not just these girls but hundreds more into his house. Unfortunately, he was a mber of the Xu Clan, bound by their strict rules..
