434: Chapter 434 Seductive Bitch

The next day.

Liu Xuan accompanied Peach Blossom Demon Lord out of the Secret Realm. At the General Affairs Hall, the arguments were still ongoing; several Nascent Soul True Lords had disregarded their dignity and looked as if they were about to come to blows.

The conflict was primarily between Academy Head True Lord Haoran's faction and Grand Elder True Monarch Jimie's faction over the division of territory.

Peach Blossom Demon Lord had taken half of the territory, so the benefits available to the various parties in the South Courtyard were already meager. Naturally, everyone was haggling over every penny and refused to yield an inch.

While accompanying Peach Blossom Demon Lord, Liu Xuan listened to Lüluo's report and discovered that he was also involved in this matter.

The Grand Elder's side pointed out that Great Sun City was extremely well-managed, with both the Artifact Refining Workshop and Pill Refining Tower yielding high profits, which also led to the great development of the surrounding areas. Therefore, that piece of territory shouldn't be calculated based on the grade of its Spiritual Vein, but should count double.

He demanded that the Academy Head's side share the profits from Great Sun City's Alchemy and Artifact Refining, or allocate other Spiritual Veins to them; otherwise, it would be unfair.

Seeing Liu Xuan appear, An Haoran immediately stopped the argument and threw the matter onto Liu Xuan.

"Liu Xuan, you've come at the right time. They want to split the profits from your Great Sun City. Handle this matter yourself."

Liu Xuan's relationship with Peach Blossom Demon Lord was far from ordinary. An Haoran's move was both a test of how deep their relationship went and a way to resolve the current distribution problem.

Before Liu Xuan could speak, Peach Blossom Demon Lord in front of him said with a hint of curiosity, "Great Sun City? There's a share for me there, so don't even think about it!"

"A share for you?"

The group of Nascent Soul True Lords in the hall looked toward Peach Blossom Demon Lord, while also curiously sizing up Liu Xuan behind her.

'No wonder that old scoundrel An Haoran is being so tough; it turns out he's long been in league with the Peach Blossom Enchantress!'

True Monarch Jimie, Ye Gu, had previously wondered why An Haoran would marry his daughter to a local native.

Now it seemed that this old scoundrel had long been in league with Peach Blossom Demon Lord; perhaps everything was part of his plan.

'Scholars truly have black hearts!'

Cursing inwardly, True Monarch Jimie said with a sour expression, "Since it's Senior Peach Blossom's property, we naturally shouldn't fight over it anymore."

He looked at An Haoran. "We'll do as you just said. I'll just consider myself unlucky!"

After saying that, he stood up, flicked his sleeves, and left. Subsequently, several Nascent Soul True Lords from his faction also stood up one by one to take their leave.

Everyone understood clearly that An Haoran had likely formed some kind of alliance with Peach Blossom. The current distribution plan was already giving them plenty of Face.

If they continued to pester and annoyed Peach Blossom Demon Lord, they wouldn't even be able to keep their current interests.

The argument ended, and True Lord Haoran's faction also stood up to leave. The war was temporarily over, but there was no shortage of work to do, and they had no time to waste here.

Half of the Peach Blossom Sect's mountain gate belonged to the South Courtyard. Everyone had to set up Formations and move as quickly as possible.

The territory within a hundred thousand miles of the Peach Blossom Sect needed to be restored to order as soon as possible. They also needed to prepare for the arrival of the main army from the Beast Taming Sect's headquarters and guard against any counterattacks from the Demon Court at any time.

Liu Xuan planned to establish a Liu Family service point at both Peach Blossom Demon Lord's side and the South Courtyard. He had already settled things with Peach Blossom in bed, so he followed his father-in-law, True Lord Haoran, to discuss the specific details with Senior Sister Yun Miao.

The Peach Blossom Sect was changed to the headquarters of the Southern Courtyard of the Beast Taming Sect. If nothing unexpected happened, it would be the Liu Family's headquarters in the future. Considering the long term, the establishment of the service point could not be handled sloppily.

Shen Yunshu had made many contributions on the previous battlefield. Liu Xuan intended to use his status as True Lord Haoran's son-in-law to pull some strings for her. The Liu Family service point would nominally be the residence of True Person Feiyu, Shen Yunshu, for the time being.

'Once the two service points are built, a batch of my children can come over first to familiarize themselves with the environment!'

Red Pine Sect, Great Sun City, Pingding Mountain, and then to Peach Blossom Sect—the four points formed a line.

Liu Xuan planned to gradually move the core of the Family to the Peach Blossom Sect. Red Pine Sect, Great Sun City, and Pingding Mountain would temporarily be left to Xiao Changfeng, Immortal Master Gusha, and the subordinates of Peach Blossom Demon Lord and True Lord Haoran. Once his children grew up, he would smoothly hand those over to them.

Developing to this day, the Liu Family was no longer a small Family but a massive cultivation Family with a broad Foundation.

At the bottom level, Liu Xuan had countless small families gathered by his thousand-plus fathers-in-law and mothers-in-law, with the Merchant Alliance binding their interests together.

At the top level, Liu Xuan was the son-in-law of the South Courtyard's Academy Head, True Lord Haoran, and the lover of the Peak Nascent Soul Peach Blossom Demon Lord. His background was deep enough.

In terms of industry, the Liu Family Artifact Refining Workshop dominated the Southern Border, which was a desert for cultivation techniques. Although the profits weren't immense, they were steady.

With people, background, and industry, as long as Liu Xuan didn't die and the Pioneering War didn't fail, the Liu Family would not fall!

While Liu Xuan was discussing with Yun Miao, a flash of light appeared, and two Cultivators, a man and a woman, approached.

The man had a handsome Face, but his hair and beard were slightly messy, giving him an unruly aura.

Surprisingly, this look didn't detract from his appearance; instead, it made him look even more handsome.

This person was the Fourth Elder of the South Courtyard, Chen Beiming, an early-stage Nascent Soul True Lord. Moreover, he was a rare Sword Cultivator in the Beast Taming Sect, with extraordinary combat power.

The other woman left an even deeper impression on Liu Xuan—the only female True Lord in the South Courtyard, Third Elder Jiang Nishang.

Jiang Nishang wore a colorful, luxurious palace dress. Her figure was exquisite, and her features were regular and fair; she was a quintessential great beauty!

Not a loli, not an older sister type, but the kind of dignified, top-tier beauty who could be called a "Great Beauty."

As the saying goes, there is no second in martial arts and no first in beauty. Jiang Nishang's beauty had its own unique character and couldn't be simply compared to others.

In any case, the bottom line was that Liu Xuan had taken a fancy to her!

What a pity!

There was only one Love Gu, and it had already been used on Peach Blossom Demon Lord. As beautiful as Jiang Nishang was, he could only look with envy; he didn't dare to act, as he couldn't handle her right now.

"Greetings, Third Elder!"

"Greetings, Fourth Elder!"

Liu Xuan cupped his hands, greeting them with the etiquette of a Disciple. Both were True Lords of True Lord Haoran's faction, and there might be many opportunities for interaction in the future.

"Mm."

Chen Beiming's reaction was very cold, matching his unruly appearance. He didn't say much to Liu Xuan, looking more like he was there to watch the fun.

"What 'Third Elder'? Junior Brother Liu is being too formal!"

Jiang Nishang covered her mouth and chuckled, swaying her hips as she walked to Liu Xuan's side, her voice sweet and cloying as she spoke:

"My name is Jiang Nishang. Back at the academy, I was considered half a Disciple of the Academy Head! Since you are the Academy Head's son-in-law, we can be considered of the same generation. How about calling me Senior Sister Nishang?"

"Uh—"

With those two sways of her hips and that cloyingly sweet tone, the persona of a dignified great beauty immediately collapsed, turning into... a flamboyant bitch!!

Surprisingly, a flamboyant bitch had her own charm. Not only did Liu Xuan not feel disgusted, but he felt even more attracted!

Seeing Liu Xuan dazed and silent, Jiang Nishang lowered her eyes, putting on a pitiful look as if she were about to burst into tears.

"Does Junior Brother Liu think I'm old and is unwilling to call me Senior Sister?"

"No, not at all!"

Liu Xuan smiled and said, "Senior Sister is as beautiful as a Heavenly Immortal, enough to make the fish sink and the birds fall, to eclipse the moon and shame the flowers. How could you be old?"

"Even an eighteen-year-old girl doesn't have your youthful vitality, Senior Sister. I was just so shocked by your beauty that I was speechless!"

"Uh..."

This time it was Jiang Nishang's turn to be stunned. She hadn't expected Liu Xuan to be so bold and have such a smooth tongue.
