Chapter 89 - Sheng Shao's Lie

''Hiya!''

''Hu!''

We were on a small grassy ground, having a friendly fight. Sheng Shao, although looking lean and inexperienced, was a tough opponent.

We fought barehanded. With no weapons, it was easier to keep our moves in check.

I dodged the knee attack coming for my waist and tried knocking him with an elbow strike. We were repeating basic movement but it would be lethal to anyone in the Body Tempering stage.

Sheng Yin was on a bench, watching us fight with heightened curiosity. She couldn't believe that I, who had broken through only last night, could overpower her brother. Then again, I was her lover now and my being powerful would only bring her happiness.

The fight continued. I was a rank 4 and he was a rank 3. Although there was not much of a disparity, I could easily block his moves and see through his attacks.

The only two reasons why he was keeping up were because, one, I was holding back and two, he had been trained in a strict manner by his elder siblings who were already at the Meridian Opening stage.

Even so, I was slowly winning and both Sheng Yin and her brother could see that. Sheng Shao sighed and said that he had already lost. I didn't see any reason to continue this fight and we stopped. For a young master like him, being defeated by a nobody such as me would have been a great blow.

However, he could justify his loss with my superior rank and my excellent techniques which he was sure came from whatever Zui clan I had been a part of.

The name I had given them was ''Zui Fan,'' which was a breakdown of my first name. My actual name here in this world was ''Shensheng Zuifan.'' That surname meant 'sacred' because I came from a divine immortal family.

It was much easier to just omit the fancy surname, Shensheng. That was why everyone I met with called me ''Brother Fan'' with the exception of a select few whom I told that my given name was a single ''Zuifan.''

At this moment, Sheng Yin stood up and clapped her hands. Then she said, ''That was a great duel.''

In response to his sister's cheerful demeanor, Sheng Shao wasn't happy.

''I wasn't good enough.'' He sighed again, ''How will I complete father's task now?''

He had told us about this task.

Yesterday, he sent a letter to his father who was stationed at the eastern gates, and got an immediate response. He'd then left the mansion for the duration we (Sheng Yin and I) rounded the mansion like a couple of newborn butterflies. Otherwise, how could we stay together until the evening without garnering his suspicion?

''I need to leave the mansion for two days,'' Sheng Shao turned to his sister and said in a serious manner. Dear Yin nodded her head when he added, ''Look after this estate until I come back…''

He trailed off in his thoughts before placing his hands behind his backs. ''Big sister Misa might be arriving within these three days. It has been almost a year since she left Xuahour.''

He didn't say anything else after that. Patting his sister on her shoulder and nodding to me, he walked towards the mansion's back door from which he entered inside. A few servants immediately followed and the door was shut.

We also entered the mansion. Everything was silent again on that meadow except for the noisy crickets.

Sheng Shao hadn't told me of what task his father gave him but Sheng Yin knew. When I showed a slight curiosity, she was more than happy to tell me everything.

Especially since I indulged her with a casual side hug. Away from the eyes of hiding guards and servants, we got inside a random guest room. I didn't find any traces of hidden practitioners with my spirit sense when I locked the doors, so all was good.

I sat on the long beige-colored couch and placed Sheng Yin on my lap. She was a little shy at first as something like this was new to her. However, she was willing to do her part when I was being brave and advancing in this relationship.

She knew we were a ''new couple'' and took my advances positively. Thus, with an innocent coquettishness, she sat on my lap facing me directly.

I made an act of averting my eyes and lightly pressed her head against my shoulder. Acting as a virgin was more difficult than I had assumed.

I felt her plump mounds comfortably settle over my crotch. Slender thighs, untouched until now, held my waist in a nice V-position. Her young and tight breasts were aligned just below my chest, pressing with a melting softness. Youth, everything was warm and that thing down below was rising up.

However, now was not the time for sexual pleasures, not this early. I voiced out my 'concern' for her brother's safety and she immediately remembered what she was going to say.

Softly, she began, ''Brother has to go the crimson mountain range to inform the City Protector.''

''He doesn't stay here?'' I asked. That was strange. A man with the title of city protector should stay here, in Xuahour.

''No, Lord Long Jung is a cultivator at the Essence Aggregation stage. The crimson mountain range is what divides the Rong Sat nation from another hostile kingdom. He can fly over here in a moment but protecting the city from there is much more efficient.''

Crimson Mountain Range was just a few miles to the southeast of Xuahour. Accordingly, the name of that forest was Crimson Forest. Vicious and Ferocious beasts inhabited the dense jungle that spanned the bases of all eight mountains.

The demonic beasts at the fourth-tier were called vicious beasts and those at the fifth-tier were ferocious beasts. A sixth-tier demonic beast was called a calamity beast. This was an unofficial term that practitioners and cultivators had been using.

However, I found two things strange here. Why would Sheng Aur send his son to such a dangerous place? Those were tier 4 or 5 beasts I was talking about, no sane man would send his son to death's doors. Unless he had bodyguards which I highly doubted.

Also, this whole thing about informing the city protector seemed bullshit to me. As cultivators, they could communicate instantaneously with the help of inscribed tokens or even using Qi communication. There was no need to go through this hassle.

'So he even lied to his sister…' I thought, relaxedly sitting on the couch. Sheng Yin answered my every question like an obedient little kitten.

I found out from her that this big sister Misa was a Viscera Purifying 9th rank practitioner. She was Sheng Aur and his 7th concubine's only daughter, his fifth eldest child.

The most high-ranked child was Sheng Yin's second eldest son, already a cultivator at Qi gathering third rank. It was confirmed that he was the heir to the Sheng family.

Dear Yin told me of an interesting fact about him. This genius was searching for a sect ever since he became a cultivator. Maybe he was told about the sects' true existence by his father.

Anyway, enough about the Sheng family's children. I knew something was up with Sheng Yin's brother but he hadn't told anything informative to his sister.

''I-'' Sheng Yin tried saying something and looked at me with upturned eyes. She must've felt the hot rod like thing poking between her soft fleshy part. I slightly moved my legs to make her sit more comfortably and her response was a passionate blush, with some naughty side glances.

Really now? Were we really going to do it today? There were people in this house but Sheng Yin was the owner for another two days or until her big sister came. That was practically like ''we'' owned the house.

We couldn't go near restricted areas such as Sheng Shao's room or the top floor's chambers. The security was tight there and not just me, but the girl sitting on my lap also knew that.

However, everything else was ''ours'' to touch and break. Sheng Yin was basically my pet by now, the only thing needed for me to do was gladly take her virginity. I planned to take her as my harem member if she behaved nicely like this.

Now, I had the basic level of power in this world, so it was time to hunt for the rare beauties along with cultivation resources.

I had lived an unfunny, hidden life back on earth. Everywhere, there was trouble and I had to be suspicious of everyone because I was a lone criminal. Because of my paranoia, I hadn't taken up any lackeys and honestly it was a pain to live in hiding every time. As a single man, I couldn't overpower my enemies there.

But here it was different and I just needed to be the most powerful cultivator. It would be boring to cultivate all day without having some fun after all.

'A few thousand beauties would be good… Maybe 2 or 3 of them can accompany me to the higher world..' I stroked my rough chin.
