Chapter 133 Bait Dodged?

Seeing that even the servant disciples were lost, the deacon didn't know what to do. In the end, he simply handed the resources to Jia Susu and logged it down before getting one of the Resource Hall's people to inform Elder Xia immediately.

Xia Dongyin was currently lying on her couch while lazily reading a novel about romance. She was dressed in a thin chiffon dress that was somewhat transparent, allowing one to see her huge F-cup breasts that were loosely bound by a bra, as well as her dodou, which was something like booty shorts but was actually women's underwear in Ancient China.

When she heard a knock on the door, she lazily allowed the servant disciple to come in. Naturally, to enter her boudoir, it had to be a female servant disciple; otherwise, the deacon and that servant disciple would have their eyes gouged out for seeing something they should not.

This young lady with tanned skin was stunned by the lush and voluptuous resource hall elder despite having reported to her many times in similar situations, but she was able to focus on the task at hand.

"Elder Xia, Deacon Fu told me to report to you that the servant disciple of core disciple Dante, Jia Susu, had made a request for over a 100 bowls of level 4 Blood Energy Soup." She began to explain.

Xia Dongyin's eyes flashed slightly. "What a monster that brat is. I now understand why that old fellow, Hao Donglei, forced us to come and greet him back then. I'm still not happy about that, but it at hearing Elder Xia refer to the nightly vice hall master like that. Despite being amused, Xia Dongyin prudently asked.

was not a bad idea."

Xia Dongyin glanced at the silent servant disciple who was scared at hearing Elder Xia refer to the nightly vice hall master like that. Despite being amused, Xia Dongyin prudently asked.

"That's not all, is it? Even though this is astonishing news, it's not enough for Little Fu to send you all the way here, is it?"

"Yes! He said that the reason that Jia Susu gave was that core disciple Dante was about to breakthrough to the Martial Warrior realm." The servant disciple stated with a nod.

Xia Dongyin was stunned. The idea that Dante would breakthrough so soon had not even crossed her mind in the slightest despite his talent because she simply thought that it was impossible. Even now, hearing this, she thought that Dante might be bluffing.

It could be a ploy to tempt them to make a mistake. His previous two attempts were so clumsy and obvious, showing that Dante was a naive youth and not a true schemer like them. After all, they lived in a cruel cultivation world and had survived for decades so how could they be fooled by such weak bait?

However, this bait was too powerful. It was fine if Dante was bluffing, but what if it was true? The consequences were too serious to think about, and a prompt decision had to be made in regards to this.

Xia Dongyin became restless. Truthfully, as a sexy woman in charge of resources, she was not very competitive. Her position granted her comfort and her sexiness granted her access to connections and power.

She could afford to insult Hao Donglei because he was a frequent partaker in her forbidden fruit, one of the extremely few in the world. However, Xia Dongyin had a clan behind her that was not located in this city, but rather in the provincial capital.

Not only did they want to recruit Dante, but they were competitors with the Supreme Martial Hall in the provincial capital for resources, political power, and more. They sent her to this city to infiltrate this branch and rise to an elder position to monitor the talents and either poach or eliminate them.

Of course, this was something the Supreme Martial hall knew, which was why despite her talent, Xia Dongyin was pushed to an elder slot and not a core disciple. The Supreme Martial Hall was happy to have her as an elder because it meant that they too could monitor her at her conspicuous position.

This was also why a core disciple's status was higher than an elder, so as to make it tough for these fellows to touch the precious core disciples using the rules of the hall or by twisting them.

So Xia Dongyin, much like the other elders in similar situations, had a choice now. To eliminate Dante or to lay her cards straight with him. After all, he was only a Body Tempering Realm fellow right now and even if his blood energy was as potent as a half-step Martial Grandmaster, he couldn't use it.

When he entered the Martial Warrior Realm though, that would change as he would begin to convert blood energy to blood Qi. At that time, even if a group of Martial Masters surrounded him, it would be hard to take him down, much less knowing that he also cultivated Internal Arts.

The reason they had not acted till now was simply that they had sent word back to their factions and were waiting on a verdict. In their minds, there was no rush as he would only breakthrough after a few months at best, so they had plenty of time to formulate a strategy.

Unfortunately, that assumption was smashed. If he was breaking through now, they had to make a snap decision... no, she had to make a snap decision. Not to mention, what she feared was not his power, but his cunning.

He could have had Jia Susu just collect the resources without giving a reason, but he purposefully told her to say this in order to force them to act. Even if Xia Dongyin knew it was a scheme, it was an open one in which she was forced to partake!

She was frightened because she could not understand how in the span of just 2 weeks of not seeing this brat, his cunning had become so strong. His previous baits were simple and not very tempting, but this one was brutally efficient.

She felt like Dante was standing above her, looking down on her with a smirk as he held a fishing rod that was connected to her back, pulling her towards him while she weakly resisted.

Xia Dongyin's eyes flashed. After crazily thinking about it, she made a decision and told the servant disciples with bloodshot eyes.

"Gather 6 more of you and send this information to the other halls and elders. Hurry and be quick, or you will face severe punishment!"

The servant disciples shuddered and bowed before rushing out to achieve this goal. Once she left, Xia Dongyin seemed to deflate as fatigue appeared on her features. However, she couldn't help but feel relieved that she had tossed this trouble away.

Dante was clearly targeting her with this bait, but she decided not to bite. She had no enmity with him and could even cultivate a beneficial relationship with him using her sexual prowess, so why make a hasty decision?

Hmph, when she pressed Dante beneath her and squeezed him dry, wouldn't he obediently chase after her skirt? Thinking like this, Xia Dongyin felt much better and even smiled faintly. She also praised her decision to drag the other elders into the vortex and force them to make mistakes.

As fellow spies, they were competitors and troublemakers. It was best to eliminate them from the fold using the hands of Dante since he would not bear much trouble for doing so compared to her, and then she would swoop in to win his favor and affection, turning him into her boytoy!

Xia Dongyin couldn't help but laugh charmingly, feeling that everything was within her grasp. Was this what it felt like to be a winner?

If so, then she quite liked it! n0velusb.c0m

Meanwhile, the other elders had received this news and could not sit still. They, like Xia Dongyin, had opted to wait patiently, especially Da Bo, who had seen the phenomenon of Dante's Internal cultivation firsthand.

No one but him among the elders knew that Dante was already at the first stage at least. Even if they did attack him now, they would likely be burned into a crisp, so the moment Da Bo had seen Dante achieve it, he had given up all thoughts.

Not to mention, he had witnessed Dante train for those 27 days and knew his progress. He had stifled the news from reaching the other elders, but he was not too surprised that the fellow was about to breakthrough.

Hearing this now, Da Bo was clear-headed and couldn't help but curse that wicked bitch Xia Dongyin. If he was a betting man, he was willing to bet that she planned to use those huge breasts to smother Dante to death after they foolishly attacked him.

Da Bo immediately went into seclusion after he told one of his deacons to capture and lock up Xia Dongyin's servant disciple so that they don't send news back that he had received the information. Also, he made them announce that he had started seclusion before the disciple in question came to inform him.
