449: Chapter 449 Tasting and Review

Steam rose from the central hot spring, figures blurring within the mist. Gauze trembled slightly as the sweet fragrance of spiritual fruits intertwined with the rich body scents of the young women, creating an atmosphere of springtime passion so thick it was almost palpable.

Ling Hao was surrounded by his seven soft, fragrant Disciples, their supple and plump bodies constantly pressing against him.

"Revered Master... tell us quickly~ whose spiritual fruit will you taste first?"

"Revered Master, come to mine first..."

"Revered Master..."

The girls vied for his attention, their voices soft and seductive.

Ling Hao's Aura vibrated slightly, finally getting them to quiet down a bit. If they kept pulling at him like that, the thing would truly be torn apart.

"Everyone will get a turn, don't be impatient."

Ling Hao laughed and reached out to give Chi Wanhe's perky buttocks a light pat. "Xiao He, let's start with you."

"Yay!"

Chi Wanhe cheered, her eyes curving into crescents. Though the other girls pouted in dissatisfaction, they could only obediently step aside.

Ling Hao pulled Chi Wanhe closer, his fingers first lightly brushing over that layer of fine, soft pink fuzz, praising, "This spiritual peach truly has an exquisite shape."

"This spiritual peach's appearance is indeed extremely beautiful."

He leaned down and took a light bite of the Drunken Pink Hibiscus Peach.

"Mmm... Xiao He's is so sweet and rich..."

Seeing her Revered Master tasting it so intently, Chi Wanhe's face was filled with delight.

She propped her hands on the couch, offering up her most beautiful part.

...

Next, Ling Hao moved on to Qin Zhaoxue, Du Yuqing, Lu Changning, Lin Xiwei, and the others, tasting the spiritual fruits they had prepared one by one.

From Du Yuqing's mature Black Jade Aloeswood Papaya to Lu Changning's soft and melting Lotus Fragrance Soft Jade Melon, and then to Lin Xiwei's cool, smooth, and firm Star-Track Azure Frost Pomelo with its crisp acidity...

Every spiritual fruit had its own unique flavor.

He first tasted with the tip of his tongue, then parted the fruit segments to savor them carefully. Sometimes the juice was too abundant, but he couldn't be bothered with that.

After tasting each one, Ling Hao would provide a detailed critique, occasionally offering some pointers.

"Xiao Xue, this plum of yours tastes a bit sour..."

"Xiao Changning, your spiritual fruit has thin skin and tender flesh, but it would be better if the skin were peeled back a bit more..."

"Xiao Wei, if this pomelo of yours could be a bit sweeter..."

The girls listened attentively; these cultivation insights were very meaningful for their future progress.

"Revered Master, don't talk... keep eating my orange..."

"Ah... it's everywhere..."

By the time the moon hung over the willow branches, the soft couch was a scene of bodies slumped in various states.

"You girls, you can't even handle this much."

Ling Hao gave a light laugh, casually picking up a Purple Jade Grape from the table and taking a bite, the juice exploding between his teeth.

"Hmm... it seems to be missing a little something?"

Just then, two sets of soft footsteps came from the garden gate.

Chi Shuying and Tushan Bailing arrived together.

Chi Shuying looked at the scenery filling the garden and chuckled behind her hand, her plump figure's curves fully revealed under the pink misty gauze as she said seductively, "Oh my... it seems we've arrived at just the right time."

"Oh my... it seems we've arrived at just the right time."

Tushan Bailing's fox-like eyes shimmered, her full jade body under the deep purple gauze exuding a thousand charms, her voice soft and bone-meltingly seductive: "The Sect Master has such elegant interests. But how could just tasting their spiritual fruits be enough? You should give us a chance too, right?"

"Sect Master, you have such fine interests. But how could tasting only their spiritual fruits be enough? You should give us a chance too, shouldn't you?"

The two exchanged a glance and simultaneously let the gauze slip from their shoulders, each holding out a mature spiritual fruit.

Chi Shuying's was a Spirit Cloud Great Jade Melon, while Tushan Bailing's was an already split Amethyst Honey Pomegranate.

Ling Hao raised an eyebrow with a half-smile: "Those spiritual fruits of yours... are they washed clean? I'm a bit of a germaphobe."

"The spiritual fruits of you two... are they washed clean? I am a bit of a germaphobe."

"The Sect Master is quite picky."

Chi Shuying giggled behind her hand. "Very well then."

As she spoke, the two stepped into the hot spring together, their gauze discarded, their plump and enticing jade bodies flickering in and out of view amidst the water vapor.

The moon reached the center of the sky.

Chi Wanhe pulled on Ling Hao's arm and said coquettishly, "Revered Master... you've tasted so many of ours, shouldn't you give us an evaluation now? Which one was actually the best?"

"Revered Master... you've tasted so many of ours, now you should give us an evaluation. Which one was the most delicious?"

Ling Hao looked around, a smile curling at the corners of his lips.

He slowly stood up straight.

"How can one truly determine the superior one just by using their mouth..."

All the girls' eyes focused on Ling Hao.

"I have a Spirit Treasure that can accurately measure values; that is the most standard way."

Ling Hao took out a Magical Artifact, his gaze sweeping over everyone.

"Whether a spiritual fruit is good or not... for example, its size, sweetness, softness, and plumpness... can all be calculated. Now, let me measure them properly and see whose spiritual fruit is truly better."

...

The next morning, Ling Hao walked out of Moon Pool Garden feeling refreshed.

That night, the 'Three Little Ones' secretly came to find him, but were rejected by Ling Hao.

It was for no other reason than they could be looked at but not 'eaten'.

Besides, except for his days off, his daily duty roster was already full. He couldn't exactly perform in front of the Three Little Ones.

After the True Demon invasion, White Rock Holy Land had many loose ends to tie up, and everyone from top to bottom was busy. Shi Qingxuan was especially swamped, having no time to come to Canglan Peak for the time being.

Over the next few days, Ling Hao stayed on Canglan Peak, "exchanging feelings" with the Elders and Disciples of the Moonshadow Sect.

He still remembered his promise to Ruan Qing and her two sisters to have a good exchange regarding the matter of "Spiritual Field Irrigation."

When the Elders and Disciples who had gone out to clear the beast tide returned and heard the Sect Master was free, they didn't even stop to rest before swarming over.

Since it wasn't his own home ground, Ling Hao still showed some restraint.

He set up a grand Isolation Formation on Canglan Peak.

And so, amidst the waterside pavilions and within the corridors of the buildings...

Green sleeves and red dresses, the sounds of warbling voices, sudden rain and fierce winds, flowers blooming and leaves trembling—day and night, in harmony and bliss, the romance was unending.

Conditions for promotion to an Eighth-Grade Sect:

Void Refinement Stage ≥ 30 people, Tribulation Transcendence Stage (including Second Tribulation Loose Immortals) ≥ 3 people

everlasting light tablet members above Golden Core: 65,368/100,000

In a waterside pavilion, Ling Hao stood with one hand on his hip, waving his right hand to close the System interface as he sighed while looking at the shimmering water surface.

"It's still a bit slow... once I've completely returned to the Sect, I'll need to speed things up."

He had basically finished his exchanges with the Elders and Disciples yesterday; today was a rare day of rest.

At that moment, a familiar figure walked gracefully toward him.

Surprise flashed in Ling Hao's eyes, and then he smiled: "You're back? How have you been getting along with your sister these past few days?"

"You're back? How have you been getting along with your sister these past few days?"

Yue Xinxi was all smiles.

"Quite well."

One could see from her expression that it had been very pleasant.

"Laner came as well; she wants to see you."

"Oh?"

Ling Hao raised an eyebrow. "Just as well, I was just looking for her."
