6: Chapter 6 My Stunning Cousin? I'm Definitely Going to Live Off Her!

The Mysterious Maiden Sect is located atop the mist-shrouded Tianji Peak, making it the premier cultivation Sect within a radius of ten thousand miles.

At this moment, two streaks of sword light pierced through the clouds and landed before the towering mountain gate.

The moment they landed, a scent of rouge and powder, mixed with various floral fragrances, wafted toward them.

Su Yun took a deep breath, feeling refreshed and clear-headed; even the restless Nine Yang True Qi within his body became a bit more active.

That’s more like it.

What’s the point of miserably secluding oneself to Cultivate?

This is exactly where a villain should be.

Looking around, the square was filled entirely with female Cultivators.

A variety of beauties—slender, plump, and graceful—were everywhere. The flashes of snow-white skin revealed between fluttering silk skirts made it a literal paradise for men.

When Su Yun, a grown man, appeared, the originally noisy square fell silent for three seconds.

Immediately afterward, countless gazes shot over in unison.

There was curiosity, amazement, disdain, and... a certain predatory green glint seen in those who had been lonely in their inner chambers for far too long.

"Who is this? He looks unfamiliar."

"Seems to be that Lin Chen from the Lin Family? I heard he came with a recommendation letter from Senior Brother Aotian."

"Tsk, looks like just another playboy who came through the back door. Look at his unsteady footsteps; he’s clearly a Kidney-deficient Young Master."

The whispers reached his ears, but Su Yun wasn't annoyed; instead, he fanned himself with a folding fan.

His gaze swept brazenly back and forth over the female Disciples, wearing a smile so wicked and arrogant it was incredibly punchable.

"Tsk tsk, Senior Sister Liu, your Mysterious Maiden Sect really knows how to enjoy life."

Su Yun leaned over and lowered his voice, his tone flippant.

"With everyone raised to be so succulent and charming, it seems my days in this Sect won't be boring."

Liu Yuqin's cheeks burned beneath her veil, and she wished she could find a hole to crawl into.

She glared fiercely at Su Yun and warned him in a low voice.

"Put away those disgusting eyes! This is the Mysterious Maiden Sect, not your harem!"

"It isn't now, but in the future... who can say for sure?"

Su Yun chuckled, and with a 'snap,' he snapped his folding fan shut.

He even went a step further, using the fan's frame to lightly tap Liu Yuqin's shoulder.

"Lead the way, my dear Senior... Sister."

Liu Yuqin gritted her teeth and could only quicken her pace to keep up.

...

Xiuyun Peak is one of the three main inner peaks, where Spiritual Qi is so dense it forms mist, and the scenery is beautiful.

This was Lin Rou's domain.

Passing through layers of Restrictions, Su Yun finally stood before a palace decorated with extreme luxury.

Unlike the cold and simple Immortal Caves of ordinary Cultivators, purple silk veils hung everywhere here, and the air was filled with an exotic fragrance that stirred the soul.

"Disciple Liu Yuqin brings Young Master Lin Chen to pay respects to Elder Lin."

Liu Yuqin bowed respectfully outside the palace doors, her voice tightening slightly.

"Come in."

A lazy, husky voice drifted from inside the hall, carrying the nasal tone of someone who had just woken up, making one's bones turn soft just hearing it.

Su Yun raised an eyebrow and pushed the door open.

The hall was extremely spacious, and in the center was a large, soft couch covered in snow-white fox fur.

A beautiful woman was reclining upon it.

She looked to be in her early thirties, the age when a woman is at her most mature and charming.

A violet silk dress was loosely wrapped around her body, with a very low neckline.

A large expanse of dazzlingly snow-white skin was exposed to the air without reservation.

Beneath the hem of her skirt, a pair of long, rounded jade-like legs were casually crossed, appearing and disappearing from view. Her toes were painted with Crimson Nail Polish, so seductive that one couldn't look away.

Xiao Chen's Adam's apple bobbed involuntarily.

Good heavens, that kid Lin Aotian has such a top-tier relative in his family?

This isn't just a cultivation Elder; she's practically a Seductress Consort capable of bringing down a kingdom!

"Su Yun?"

Lin Rou's beautiful eyes opened slightly, her gaze bypassing Liu Yuqin to land directly on Su Yun.

Her originally lazy eyes instantly brightened, as if she were looking at some rare treasure.

She slowly rose, stepping barefoot onto the soft wool carpet. Moving with lotus steps, she brought a waft of intoxicating fragrance as she walked straight up to Su Yun.

"Lin Chen pays respects to Revered Master."

Su Yun immediately adopted a well-behaved and sensible appearance, giving a deep bow.

"You may rise. Quickly, let me look at you."

Lin Rou reached out with her jade-like finger and tilted Su Yun's chin up.

Those peach blossom eyes, which seemed capable of speaking, carefully appraised his face before her gaze slowly moved down to his chest.

The next second, Su Yun's whole body trembled.

This Lin Rou was actually so bold!

"Not bad, you haven't slacked on your training these past few years."

Lin Rou suddenly discovered Su Yun's powerful pulse, her voice carrying a hint of surprise and expectation.

"You're much stronger than when you were little. It seems this journey of tempering has helped you grow a lot."

Su Yun sneered inwardly: Of course, I have the Nine Yang Sacred Body!

On the surface, however, he put on a shy yet excited expression.

"It’s all thanks to Revered Master's concern; I didn't dare to be negligent. I only hope to enter the Sect soon and repay Revered Master."

"Repay? Hehe, it's good that you have such a heart."

Lin Rou covered her mouth and chuckled, her body trembling like a blooming flower. The spectacular sight of waves rising and falling made Su Yun's eyelids twitch.

At that moment, the voice in Su Yun's head that only he could hear rang out.

[Ding! High-quality pursuit target detected!]

[Target: Lin Rou]

[Identity: Elder of Xiuyun Peak, Mysterious Maiden Sect]

[Cultivation: Late Nascent Soul Stage Great Perfection]

[Physique: Water Spirit Charming Bone (Top-tier cultivation Physique, requires Extreme Yang Qi to Cultivate)]

[Current Favorability: 60 (Instinctive attraction generated by the Yang Qi emitted from the host's body)]

[Strategy Suggestion: Soft Rice Hard Eat. This target extremely craves the strong and Extreme Yang Qi; playing the role of an aggressive Young Wolf will yield the best results.]

Water Spirit Charming Bone?

Needs Extreme Yang Qi to Cultivate?

Su Yun almost laughed out loud on the spot.

It turned out that Lin Rou had discovered a faint trace of 'True Yang Qi' hidden within Lin Chen's body years ago.

She had always wanted to use him as a 'Medicinal Primer' for her cultivation.

Unfortunately, the original host was a waste and failed to achieve Awakening.

Now that Su Yun had usurped the nest, his Nine Yang Sacred Body was the ancestor of all True Yang.

To Lin Rou, who possessed the 'Water Spirit Charming Bone,' he was practically walking Tang Monk Meat—a fatal temptation!

I'm definitely eating this soft rice!

"Yuqin."

Lin Rou suddenly restrained her smile and turned to look at Liu Yuqin, her expression returning to the majesty of an Elder.

"Disciple is here." Liu Yuqin quickly lowered her head.

"Xiao Chen is new here and doesn't know the rules. You are the Saintess and Aotian's... confidant. In the future, you must look after him within the Sect."

Lin Rou's tone was calm, yet it carried an unquestionable command.

"I will settle Xiao Chen in the 'Tingtao Pavilion' on the back mountain. It's close to my Sleeping Quarters, so I can... guide his cultivation at any time."

Tingtao Pavilion?

Close to the Sleeping Quarters?

Liu Yuqin was shocked. That was the place with the densest Spiritual Qi on Xiuyun Peak.

Normally, even Personal Disciples weren't allowed in, and now she was giving it to someone who had just entered the Qi Refinement Stage?

"What? Is there a problem?" Lin Rou's brows furrowed slightly.

"Disciple wouldn't dare." Liu Yuqin felt bitter in her heart. This wasn't 'looking after' him; it was clearly sending a sheep into a wolf's den—and in this case, there were two wolves.

"Fine, you may leave."

Lin Rou waved her hand.

"Aotian has achieved Ascension, so don't be so distraught all day. I see your primal yin is damaged and your aura is unsteady these past few days; it must be from overthinking. Go back and enter secluded cultivation to recover properly, and don't lose the face of the Saintess."

Damaged primal yin?

Liu Yuqin's body shook violently, and she instinctively glanced at Su Yun.

She saw the culprit standing with his hands behind his back, looking at the ceiling with an innocent face, as if this matter had nothing to do with him.

"Yes... Disciple takes her leave." Liu Yuqin gritted her teeth and fled the hall.

As the palace doors shut heavily, only Su Yun and Lin Rou remained in the vast hall.

The atmosphere instantly became somewhat suggestive.

"Su Yun."

Lin Rou sat back on the soft couch, took a sip of spiritual wine, and looked at Xiao Chen with a hazy gaze, her voice becoming incredibly soft.

"You must be exhausted after rushing all this way, right?"

"I'm not tired." Su Yun took a step forward, his eyes burning as he looked at her. "Seeing Revered Master, I feel full of energy."

"Oh?"

Lin Rou put down her wine cup, the surprise in her eyes deepening.

This kid seemed even more sensible than she had imagined.

A playful smile hooked at the corner of her mouth, and she lightly patted the empty space beside her that could only fit one person.

"Full of energy? That's perfect."

Lin Rou leaned forward slightly, her breath like orchids and her smoldering gaze lingering.

"I have... some tasks here that just happen to need an extra hand. Come, sit and talk."

Su Yun cursed 'seductress' in his heart.

But showing no fear on his face, he sat directly beside Lin Rou.

"Xiao Chen, I know you haven't had it easy in the Lin Family and have suffered a lot of grievances."

Lin Rou reached out, her fingertips lightly resting on the back of Su Yun's hand, slowly moving upward.

"Now that you're here with me, treat this place as your own home. As long as you are obedient, I guarantee you can... walk sideways in the Mysterious Maiden Sect."

"Really?"

Su Yun flipped his hand and grabbed that soft and boneless little hand, a bit of Nine Yang True Qi emitting from his palm.

Majestic spiritual power instantly surged through Lin Rou's entire body.

"Mm..."

Lin Rou's delicate body shook violently as the Water Spirit Charming Bone within her was triggered.

This kid's Yang Qi... how can it be so overbearing?!

It was a hundred times stronger than she had anticipated! He was simply the finest of the fine!

Feeling the slightly trembling hand in his palm, a wild glint flashed in Su Yun's eyes as he leaned forward, closing in on Lin Rou's face.

"Then will Revered Master give me whatever I want?"

Lin Rou was stunned by his sudden assertiveness, and then her eyes rippled like water.

Instead of retreating, she proactively met him, her red lips parting slightly.

"That depends... on your performance."

Su Yun grinned, revealing a row of stark white teeth, his eyes looking exactly like a vicious wolf about to feed.

He loved this kind of high-stakes push-and-pull game the most.
