Chapter 168: Chapter 167: Your Young Master Is Mine!

Chapter 167: Your Young Master Is Mine!

It was rare for Luo Wusheng to see such a vivid expression on this girl’s face.

It indeed felt different when looking down from this angle.

However, after being told by this girl, he felt a bit embarrassed when he looked at her slightly messy hair, and was about to scratch the back of his head to cover his embarrassment. However, as he raised his hand, he smelled a faint scent on it.

He instinctively sniffed it.

Hmm… it smelled a bit like flowers.

Unfortunately, he had no knowledge of flowers and plants, so he could only sigh about how nice it smelled.

Seeing his reaction, Yue Xuanji’s small face flashed with a bit of awkwardness.

“You should have felt the changes in the seed of luck, right?”

She said without directly answering Luo Wusheng’s question, and added, “Wait for the seed to sprout, that will be the change you’re looking for.”

“…Are you saying that the good luck I receive comes from what the seed sprouted?”

“You’ll see when the seed sprouts.”

After this somewhat cryptic statement, Yue Xuanji said, “We don’t have much time left, although staying here could let me see more interesting things, it’s not the right time yet.”

Luo Wusheng hadn’t quite grasped the meaning of the girl’s words when he saw her body enter a state of phasing again.

Then, the space around her fluctuated, and amid Luo Wusheng’s puzzled face, Yue Xuanji disappeared.

“She’s leaving just like that?”

The corner of Luo Wusheng’s mouth twitched.

’Sprout of the seed… Is she confirming that the seed of luck will indeed undergo a change? She really lives up to being the best fortune teller in the world; her way of speaking is so elusive.’

As for the time being short, it probably referred to the fact that the three beautiful women were only a few dozen seconds away from arriving at the battlefield, right?

Luo Wusheng recalled the conditions that had caused the seed in his dantian to behave unusually.

Having a certain level of interaction with several special women would lead to a stronger change in the seed of luck. And just now, when he was patting Yue Xuanji’s head, they had reached a higher level of interaction.

Coupled with the push of spiritual energy within him, the seed of luck had entered a high-frequency operational state.

Even though Yue Xuanji had used teleportation to go somewhere, the seed that revolved around his Golden Core didn’t return to its previous calm state as quickly as before. Instead, it slowed down extremely gradually.

So, how could he make this seed approach its limit and enter the transformation stage?

The answer became apparent in the next moment.

On the corridor that had been empty except for him, the figures of three women appeared simultaneously, casting their gazes upon him.

“Senior Brother…”

“Lord Luo…”

“Young Master…”

Three gentle calls reached his ears.

In that instant, the tiny seed of luck next to Luo Wusheng’s Golden Core skyrocketed in speed as if it had been injected with adrenaline.

No, Luo Wusheng couldn’t even see the seed of luck anymore.

All he could see was the residual light of starlight revolving around his Golden Core, akin to the rock floating around saturn.

The mood of the pink haired girl was somewhat strange at this moment.

When she saw Yue Xuanji appear just now, the first thing that came to her mind was the atrocities committed against her by that old hag before her second awakening.

If it weren’t for the fact that the pink haired girl hadn’t fully recovered her cultivation yet, she would have definitely subdued Yue Xuanji the moment she appeared, making that old hag recall the vast difference in strength between a Peak combat-oriented Tribulation Crossing cultivator and a support-oriented Peak Tribulation Crossing cultivator.

But unexpectedly, Yue Xuanji acted swiftly and took Luo Wusheng away from the room with a provocative gesture, leaving only a voice transmission that only she could hear.

“Your young master is mine now, hehe~”

Snap!

Deep inside her mind, a string snapped.

The Netherqueen couldn’t hold back anymore.

What a childish old hag!

’What exactly does she want to do?’

The Netherqueen gently ran her hand over the strings of the guqin, repairing the broken string, and then breaking it once more.

For some reason, the message left by Yue Xuanji when she left kept echoing in her mind, making it impossible for her to calm down.

In the end, the pink haired girl had to gently pat the broken string on the ancient guqin and put it away.

Thinking about Luo Wusheng being taken away and the sudden thunderstrike from nowhere, she decided to go outside to see what had happened.

Elder Ape and Xiao Guai quickly understood her intentions. The former transformed back into the wooden carving form with a light leap, while the latter put the wooden carving back into the bag and followed her.

However, the tree Netherkin dressed as a maidservant was looking at her superior with increasingly complex eyes…

<+>

Back to the present.

With the simultaneous calls and synchronized movements, the three extraordinarily beautiful women were momentarily stunned, looking at each other.

’The Demon Sect Holy Maiden and the Empress of the Immortal Nation? Why are they also in this inn? And where did Yue Xuanji go, leaving only Young Master behind?’

After confirming that Luo Wusheng didn’t seem to have any abnormalities due to Yue Xuanji’s visit, the Netherqueen quickly understood her current situation.

With the Empress of the Immortal Nation present, she, who hadn’t fully recovered her cultivation, couldn’t expose her true identity.

To naturally disguise herself as Yao Ji, the Netherqueen began to carefully conceal her netherkin aura.

On the other side, the Empress seemed somewhat puzzled.

Wasn’t that Demon Sect Holy Saint supposed to deal with the incident outside the city with his junior sister?

Why was he standing alone at this door?

Even the Demon Sect Holy Maiden seemed like she was looking for him?

And that woman over there…

The Empress slightly furrowed her brows.

’This appearance seems familiar, like I’ve seen it somewhere…’

Then she quickly found the source of the familiarity.

After the Netherkin Extermination Operation ended, she had instructed the Six Gate Bureau spies to investigate people with suspicious activities in the capital. The woman in front of her was clearly in the intelligence provided by the Six Gate Bureau.

Yao Ji, the number one courtesan from the Red Blossom Pavilion, suddenly fell ill more than a week ago, declined all visitors, and conveniently disappeared from the capital before and after the night of the Netherkin Extermination Operation. This information was highly suspicious according to the intelligence collected by the Six Gate Bureau.

Why was she here? And why did she seem to have some connection with the Demon Sect Holy Saint?

Filled with doubts, the Empress discreetly put away the Dragon Fortune Stone she had been holding in her hand.

Well, the Dragon Fortune Stone didn’t show any other changes.

Although she confirmed this, she didn’t have any intention of leaving immediately.

For some reason, seeing a woman with the reputation of being the best courtesan from a brothel appear by Luo Wusheng’s side made her feel a bit strange.

Even though the intelligence said that this courtesan didn’t sell her body… but this wasn’t Red Blossom Pavilion.

The Empress’s extensive experience had taught her about some of the hidden aspects of the world that were not known to ordinary people.

For example, some so-called non-prostituting courtesans would still run their own businesses outside of the courtesan houses…

’Could it be…’

A slight chill ran up her left wrist.
