Chapter 300: The Journey

Three days later...

Alex came out of the building of his organization and entered into a beast-drawn carriage that shot towards the Imperial Herb House.

At this point in time, the person who Alex put in charge of the operation of the organization he established had employed a few beast-drawn carriage drivers. One was of high-grade, while the rest were of average-grades. The high-grade, beast-pulled carriage which consisted of powerful, towering beasts belonged to Alex, their boss. While the average-grade, beast-pulled carriages which were carriages pulled by less powerful beasts belonged to the higher-ups of his organization.

Not long, the beast-drawn carriage arrived before the Imperial Herb House. Then Alex came down from it and stepped into the building.

Immediately he entered, he met the workers who humbly greeted him. Then one came to meet him and took him to Layla's office.

Knock!

The sudden knock on the door jolted Layla from her comprehension.

"Come in" She said from within.

Then the door opened and Alex stepped in. While the worker that brought him here turned around and walked back to his post.

When Layla saw Alex, she immediately stood from her seat and approached him. With a smile in her face, she greeted when she got to his front.

"Welcome" She said.

Alex nodded his head.

Then he looked around.

"Nice place you have got here ma'am" Alex said with a smile as he looked around.

"Nah. It's not as great as your place" Layla immediately responded with a smile.

Then she looked at Alex and said "I don't remember asking for your name"

Alex looked at her and gave a naughty smile. "Nah. You have to please me to tell you that. I don't give out my name freely to people, even if the person is my cultivation partner. So, you have to please me to tell you"

Layla shook her head.

'Like he previously said, he is the extremely naughty type.' She said inwardly.

'But I like him like that. At least, he is hundreds, if not thousands of times better than those bastards I met' She thought.

"So handsome, how do I please you to get your name?" Layla asked.

"I don't know. Anything should work, as long as it pleases me. Haha" Alex said and grinned naughtily.

Then Layla thought of something erotic. Although she was new to all these, which was intense romantic interactions with an opposite gender, she still had to brave up to do it; what she thought.

She wanted to please Alex, since he had demanded for it from her.

She then came very close to him that her breath brushed his face. And now looking at him in the eyes, she lifted her right hand and dipped it into his trousers to grab his manhood.

However, before Layla's hand could grasp his manhood, Alex immediately grabbed her hand, stopping her.

Then he looked at her with a smile in his face. "Alright. That was pleasing enough." He said.

"Oh!" Layla exclaimed with slight surprise in her tone. She had thought that he might even say she had to do something on his manhood with her mouth to please him. 

She then removed her hand from his trousers and asked "So, what's your name?"

"Alex" Alex replied.

"Full name?" Layla questioned.

"Alex Star" Alex answered.

Layla nodded her head with a smile in her face.

Then she placed her two palms on his cheek and said "Thanks for coming. I so much appreciate it."

Alex nodded.

"Don't mention." He said.

Then he asked "When are we going there? You said in three days time to give us time to prepare."

"Yes, I am fully prepared for the journey. So we are setting out now" Layla replied.

"Alright." Alex nodded his head.

Then they both left the room they were in and headed for the door to exit the building. And when they came out, she and Alex stepped into the beast-drawn carriage that carried them to an ultivehicle garage.

As they left, Rita was in her office crying. She felt she had done a really bad thing to her boss. But she also felt that she couldn't be blamed for this, as she didn't want to die, and also didn't want to provoke the powerful cultivation expert who could probably kill her with his gaze alone.

When the beast-drawn carriage got there, they both came down from it and entered into the building to buy tickets. But since it was Layla that invited Alex for this journey, she was the one who paid for the two of them. And the ultivehicle that she booked flight ticket for was the small ultivehicle which was really expensive as it could only contain one to five passengers. Unlike the others that could hold from hundred to tens of thousands of people, making their flight fees very cheap. The small ultivehicle was meant for VIPs or for extremely wealthy people who could afford it.

Alex who was like a glaring sun everywhere he would go to couldn't be recognized by anyone as he had worn a full mask that hid his entire face. He didn't want his enemies and potential enemies know where he was heading off to. He wanted to have a totally smooth and sweet experience with Layla during their copulation-cultivation. Therefore, he didn't want anybody interrupting and ruining their happiness, inhibiting them from reaching that wondrous state of ecstasy. Also, he didn't want anyone to see him with Layla yet. Although he didn't give a damn if anyone knew, it was just too soon to be seen with another lady. It was true that powerful geniuses or famous cultivators would be surrounded by ladies on all sides, but he felt that being seen with Layla only after a few weeks of fighting to restore Olivia's name and reputation could seriously tarnish or damage his 'godlike' image in the minds of everyone. He would be seen as a lady wrapper which would then cause every other girl to try to jump at him to try their luck. Besides, he didn't want Olivia to be seriously mad. That girl was dominating, and out of anger could come for Layla's head, even if she knows that Layla was the daughter of the king who was a cousin to the City Lord. So, he didn't want any crisis between her and Layla to happen so soon, at least, till in the future. Therefore, a simple mask would prevent all these that he thought. Layla too wasn't identifiable as she had worn her mask.

Not long, the ultivehicle was prepared for them. Then when they entered into it, the small-sized ultivehicle took off into the air and shot at a great speed to their destination.
