68: Chapter 68 Inspection? Pulse Taking? A Battlefield of Four Women Fighting for a Husband! This gigolo is really tough.
"Please!" The Sect Master waved his whisk, and the mountain-protecting array cracked open a gap.
Three streams of light landed instantly.
As the light dissipated, three peerless, uniquely tempered women appeared in the center of the plaza.
The one on the left wore a bright yellow dragon robe, a flat-topped crown on her head; her face was majestic, her gaze disdainful, as if looking at her own backyard.
The one on the right was dressed in white as snow, carrying an ancient sword on her back; she was expressionless, and the air within three meters of her had condensed into ice shards.
The one in the middle wore cool, revealing clothing, half-covered by red silk, with bells on her bare feet; her pair of peach-blossom eyes rippled with water, making it seem like she was flirting with everyone she looked at.
The first thing they did after landing was not to look at the Sect Master, nor the strange scientific instruments around, and certainly not the huge banner.
Their gazes, as if equipped with GPS positioning, instantly pierced through the crowd and locked firmly onto—
Jiang Chen, who was holding a thermos and looking harmless to humans and animals.
In an instant, Jiang Chen felt as if he had been X-rayed by three high-power machines.
From the hairs on his head to his heels, even the color of his underwear (red, to ward off evil spirits in his zodiac year) was seen through.
That kind of gaze was full of inquiry, curiosity, greed, and a fanaticism as if identifying some rare treasure.
"Is this him?"
The Empress of the Great Xia, Wu Mingyue, narrowed her phoenix eyes slightly, looking Jiang Chen up and down as if selecting a tribute.
"Is this the legendary human-shaped immortal medicine? He looks unremarkable, without a trace of spiritual power fluctuation."
"He is indeed a mortal."
The Sword Head Dugu Xue spoke coldly, her fingers gently stroking the hilt of her sword: "But the blood and energy in his body are very strange. Pure, warm, carrying a kind of rule power that I don't understand. Perhaps the rumors are not false."
"Hehehe..."
The Saintess of the Joyful Union Sect, Su Daji, laughed until her body trembled. She took a step forward, and that intoxicating fragrant breeze instantly rushed toward Jiang Chen: "Why are the two sisters looking so carefully? Whether it's a good thing or not, won't we know if we touch it?"
As she spoke, she actually reached out, her slender jade fingers carrying a pink aura of spiritual power, reaching straight for Jiang Chen's wrist.
"Little brother, let sister check your pulse~"
This move was as fast as lightning.
Clearly, the so-called exchange and learning, the first step was to inspect the goods!
Jiang Chen stood still.
It wasn't that he didn't want to move; he was locked by three terrifying divine senses and couldn't move.
But he wasn't panicked.
Because someone was more anxious than him.
"Clap!"
A crisp explosion sounded.
Su Daji's hand, half a meter away from Jiang Chen, was slapped away fiercely by another hand as white as jade.
A ripple of pink light exploded in the air.
"Su Daji, what are you touching?"
Ji Linglong appeared in front of Jiang Chen at some point.
At this moment, she was no longer the socially anxious girl hiding behind the pillar yesterday.
Facing external enemies (especially love rivals), the domineering aura of the Saintess of Taichu returned instantly.
Her wide-sleeved dress fluttered without wind, and the terrifying pressure of a Half-Step Void Refining stage was released without reservation. The phantom of the phoenix burning with love behind her emitted a low warning sound.
Ji Linglong, like a mother hen protecting her food, blocked firmly in front of Jiang Chen, her eyes cold as knives:
"This is Taichu Holy Land, not your Joyful Union Sect's brothel. If you want to act like a slut, go back and do it!"
"Oh my~"
Su Daji rubbed the back of her hand, which had been slapped red, but she wasn't angry; instead, she laughed even more happily: "Little sister Linglong has quite a temper. It seems the rumors are true; you really treasure this little man."
"Since it's true..."
Su Daji's eyes turned, looking at the other two: "Then this exchange will be even more interesting."
Wu Mingyue took a step forward, dragon energy surging, contending with Ji Linglong's pressure.
"Ji Linglong, let's not beat around the bush."
Wu Mingyue's voice was domineering: "I have come here this time to verify one thing. The reason you were able to break through the three-hundred-year bottleneck, is it because of him?"
She pointed at Jiang Chen.
The whole place was dead silent.
Everyone's ears pricked up.
This was the current headline cold case of the cultivation world!
Ji Linglong frowned.
Just as she was about to say "None of your business," Jiang Chen behind her gently tugged at her sleeve.
Jiang Chen poked his head out from behind Ji Linglong, wearing a professional smile on his face.
"Ladies, I think you may have misunderstood."
Jiang Chen held a megaphone, his voice loud: "I am not any immortal medicine, nor am I a furnace. The reason Linglong was able to break through is because we adopted the most advanced scientific cultivation method."
"Scientific cultivation?"
The three female big shots were stunned at the same time.
"That's right!"
Jiang Chen pointed to Academician Li Zhenbang next to him: "Let me introduce him; this is our chief technical consultant. The so-called breakthrough is actually a leap in life level achieved by using specific emotional stimulation (dopamine), combined with high-precision spiritual power guidance (meridian clearing)."
"If the three of you are interested..."
Jiang Chen revealed his true intent, rubbing his hands like a salesman.
"Our Taichu Holy Land is willing to share this technology with you all. Of course, there is a patent fee."
"Technology?"
Wu Mingyue sneered, clearly not believing it: "I don't believe in any technology. I only believe in seeing is believing. Since you say it's not because of you... then do you dare to come back to Great Xia with me and let me check properly?"
"I also want to check."
Dugu Xue was concise: "My sword heart is flawed. If he can mend it, I will agree to any condition."
"I want to, I want to too!"
Su Daji raised her hand: "I don't need anyone else to check; I want to check personally~ In all aspects, oh~"
Good grief.
Is this coming for an exchange?
This is clearly coming to snatch someone!
And the reasons are stiffer than the last, basically writing "I've taken a fancy to this piece of Tang Monk meat" on their faces.
Ji Linglong's lungs were about to explode.
"Dream on!"
Spiritual light flashed in Ji Linglong's hand, and her natal Flying Sword Taichu was unsheathed, cold light gleaming: "Want to take away my husband? Unless you step over my dead body!"
Seeing the atmosphere becoming tense, the First World War of the cultivation world was on the verge of breaking out.
The Sect Master had already started preparing to activate the mountain-protecting array to fight to the death.
Just at this moment.
Academician Li Zhenbang, who hadn't spoken, suddenly pushed his glasses, looked at the instrument in his hand that had been alarming, then looked at the three aggressive female big shots, and suddenly spoke.
"Um... excuse me for interrupting."
Old Li's voice, amplified by the loudspeaker, sounded particularly abrupt.
"According to the data analysis just now, I have reason to suspect that the reason why the three ladies are so interested in Director Jiang is not because of the rumors of some immortal medicine."
Everyone's eyes looked at this mortal old man.
"Then why?" Wu Mingyue raised an eyebrow.
Li Zhenbang pointed to the three red waveforms displayed on the screen, and said seriously:
"The data shows that the moment you saw Director Jiang, your hormone secretion index, heart rate frequency, and pupil dilation all exceeded the threshold of normal social interaction."
"To put it simply."
Old Li looked at these three powerful women capable of destroying the world, revealing a kind smile that saw through everything.
"You don't want to study him."
"You've been single for too long, and you want to fall in love, right?"
"Crack."
It was as if something shattered.
Wu Mingyue's domineering expression froze.
Dugu Xue's cold sword energy dissipated.
Su Daji's charming smile solidified.
The whole place was dead silent.
Only Jiang Chen was crazily giving a thumbs up to Academician Li in his heart:
Old Li! You are truly brave!
Does this count as scientific exposure?
"No... Nonsense!"
Wu Mingyue's majestic, pretty face turned red at a speed visible to the naked eye: "I... I possess the world, what kind of man have I not seen! I... I am just doing it for the national fortune!"
"I cultivate the Unfeeling Sword Dao!" Dugu Xue's hand holding the sword was shaking, "Falling in love? That is the excuse of the weak!"
"Exactly, exactly!" Su Daji was also anxious, "I have seen countless men; how could I take a fancy to this mortal? I am just... just curious!"
Looking at these three big shots who suddenly became a bit flustered and even started to speak incoherently.
Jiang Chen smiled.
He could see it.
Where are these three female demons?
These are clearly three older spinsters who have successful careers and sky-high strength, but are extremely empty, lonely, and cold inside!
And they are the kind of poor people who are imprisoned by feudal cultivation thinking, don't understand what "love" is at all, and dare not admit that they want to be loved.
"Everyone."
Jiang Chen straightened his collar and walked out from behind Ji Linglong.
He looked at these three women who stood at the top of the cultivation world but were blank in terms of relationships, revealing a very seductive smile.
"Since it's not to snatch people, and not to fall in love..."
"Then why don't we try a different way of playing?"
"I have a magic treasure here called the Holographic Love Simulator, which is the supporting equipment for the 'Black Myth' I mentioned earlier."
"It can let you experience what is called Brother Jing, what is called Li Xiaoyao, and what is called sweet love without physical contact."
"Do you want to try?"
