10 Demoness

Sheng Tian sighed in defeat as he slumped into the chair. Looking at the crowd who were pointing him with weird expressions, he sighed once again.

"Ai, it's not like I care about the social image. But seriously, why does a Soul even needs to eat?" He asked looking at the Young Woman sitting in front.

She was wolfing down the food without a shred of shyness. There were two piles of plates, reaching half a meter in front of her.

The Young Woman continued to eat.

After finishing the 50th bowl of grilled chicken, she put the bowl down and let out a satisfied smile.

"I am being generous testing the dishes for poison. Why are you not thanking me yet?"

Sheng Tian secretly rolled his eyes and said "Seriously now, you are too kind. On Earth, you must be very fat."

"I always had the perfect figure. Many would die to have a talk with me. So be grateful to your luck that you can talk to this Divine Miss daily." She snorted and returned to the Snow Glazed Lotus.

'Ok. I don't believe it.' He thought and shook his head.

Later, he exited the town.

"So, miss, any idea where we should be going?"

"Sheng Tian, when I first entered this world, I sense some auras which shouldn't belong to this World. The one I sensed in this continent is from the Forbidden Land-Embrace of Death."

"You went to other continents?"

"Not really. But I was able to sense those auras when I passed by the continents."

"I have a strong feeling they hide some great secret. And you also need to find the resources to reconstruct my body as well. The Forbidden Land is the best bet. "

"So, what are you waiting for? Take out that Damned Flower and fly us there."

"What damned flower? It's a Snow Glazed Lotus! And it isn't used for lowly activities as flying. Hmph!"

Sheng Tian's lips twitched at her words.

You don't even admit that the useless flower can't be used for flying, instead, you go as far as to claim that flying is lowly! How can you be so shameless?

Almost sighing at her shamelessness, Sheng Tian started his journey to the Embrace of Death.

Red Star continent had four forbidden lands, each guarded by a sect.

Embrace of Death, Valhalla, Eternal Frozen Land, and Purgatory are those lands.

A Forbidden Land is a place of extreme danger and fortune. It is a hope to change one's destiny.

Many Ambitious Young Cultivators adventure into the Forbidden Lands, only to end their lofty dreams with a cruel death.

The Embrace of Death is in the East of the Continent, in the region of the Sacred Sword Sect.

Finally, he arrived.

Even with such a low cultivation base, it is impressive that he managed to cover such a large distance in a relatively short period of time.

The Red Star Continent by Xiao Lian's estimate should be twice as big as Earth's Largest Continent.

And the distance between the Snow Glazed Mountains and the Embrace of Death's is more than 20,000 kilometers!

During these twenty days, Sheng Tian didn't forget to cultivate. He had multiple breakthroughs.

His current cultivation reached the 7th level of the Foundation Realm.

The shocking part is his battle powers. He can skip almost an entire Realm! That's crazy even for Xiao Lian!

But the most obvious and satisfying change for Sheng Tian is the behavior of Xiao Lian.

After 20 days of pointless bickering, throwing jokes at each other and having fun, she seems to let down the walls she built towards him in her heart.

What he now saw in her was not the cold and indifferent self she used to show him, but a cheerful and playful innocent young girl who is very cute.

Sheng Tian enjoyed her little chatter daily.

Once she took her facade down, she started talking about all sorts of things. She started laughing more and started doing all sorts of fun things.

He didn't know that it was all because of him that she is managing to come out of her fears.

At the 20th day, they arrived at the 'Death City'.

This a border city to the Embrace of Death and the Imperial Dragon Empire.

Death City has the cultivators from all over the Eastern region of the continent.

Be it disciples or elders, or even experts living as common people, all sorts are here.

Death City is said to be one of the few cities which are on par with the Eight Great Cities of the Continent.

There is a huge trade of profound arts, cultivation techniques, pills, herbs, weapons, materials.

Many People are killed simply because of the treasure they own.

"If you don't have the ability to protect what you possess, then you better not have it."

Killing in broad daylight is a daily occurrence here. The Strong Rules the weak. Sometimes, even your status may not work.

Many Independent Cultivators live in the City. It is a great place for them to exchange cultivation materials.

For Sect Disciples, this is a good opportunity to get used to the Cultivation World and gain experience from real life battles.

The Elders from the sects are the ones that usually enter the deeper parts of the Forbidden Land.

They also try to find treasures by luck in the forbidden land and city. Who knows? Perhaps, they might receive a secret and increase their future prospects.

Even becoming a leading figure of the era was not impossible.

Some feel that they might be enlightened if lucky and breakthrough the bottleneck.

Sheng Tian entered the inn room and laid down on the bed.

Xiao Lian came out and stretched her body, showcasing her extremely perfect figure. She also laid down next to him not remembering when it became natural.

Looking at the ceiling, Sheng Tian said in a serious tone "Hey Xiao Lian, I have a question."

Xiao Lian answered in a serious tone "go ahead."

She expected it to be something about cultivation or her past, but who would have thought that the question Sheng Tian asked would be " You didn't peek at me when I was bathing, did you?"

He turned to look straight into her eyes as if trying to discern false from truth.

Xiao Lian who heard his question flew into a fury but immediately acertain scene crossed her mind. That day, her curiosity got the better of her. She blushed involuntarily.

Thickening her skin, she was about to deny when Sheng Tian saw her blush and guessed the answer.

He pointed his finger at her and said in a shaking tone "It was my purity. you, you, you…" Sheng Tian acted as like a woman who lost her first time and was on the verge of shock and tears.

Xiao Lian grew more embarrassed when this fellow started acting all pure and holy.

He placed his hands on his head and spoke like someone who lost everything in their life "Gone, It's Gone. I am living with a horrible pervert. I better not sleep anymore lest I get molested in sleep. Aii, Why did my life turn so bitter? This World is so cruel."

Xiao Lian almost doubted her own character from his acting. Then she rolled her eyes and turned her head away.

He looked at her and said pitifully " Miss Xiao Lian, you have to take responsibility."

"Wh...What responsibility, isn't it just pee...peeking?" she stuttered.

"What just peeking? don't you know I am someone who views both genders equally? You know the responsibility a man takes when he sees a woman naked, so you should do it the other way around as well. Hmph!" In the end, he even imitated her and snorted.

Xiao Lian face became bright red as she tried to speak" I, I...".

She was thinking 'Was this fellow hinting something or is he hitting on me? But we knew each other only for a few days and he is definitely not going to stop with a single wife. Wait, what I am even thinking!'

Sheng Tian saw she was very embarrassed, so he returned to his usual carefree manner while waving his hands " Alright, Alright. Treat it as a once in a lifetime opportunity and cherish it well. You think marrying me was easy? Many would die to get a chance to talk to me. You should be grateful that you can talk to me daily. Why aren't you hurrying up and thanking me yet?

Wait, why are you glaring at me? Why did your face become red? AAahhhhh....."Suddenly, he screamed feeling the pain on his waist. It was sudden and sharp which seemed to contain the perpetrator's intense desire for revenge.

Xiao Lian let out a smile of a victory on her immortal like face and elegantly returned to his body. She didn't forget to shoot him a provocative smile before that, implying with an expression saying"Don't mess with this demoness. Hmph!"

Sheng Tian who suffered, in the end, could only mutter "Demoness" in defeat.

Then he suddenly thought back to the girl he met outside the sect and her behavior. Even though she was a bit too calm, at least, she helped him out of her responsibility unlike a certain someone who claimed to be his master yet is only spending his hard-earned money in having fun.

He called out softly "Goddess"
