Chapter 566: Chapter Three Hundred Fifty-Nine: Persuasion Part 2

Bai Muxi’s voice appropriately rose a bit:

"If the young master could change his nature upon recollection, you wouldn’t have ignored my question just now.

"You... actually know very well,

"Even if the young master remembers those memories,

"Even without Prince Wu Yuan,

"The young master’s nature is something you cannot change..."

...

...

...

The two lower levels of the Xuanying Attic were cramped, with narrow corridors and dim lighting, yet they were tidily maintained.

Passing through the dark hallway, Xu Yuan extended his will-spirit into the chamber and saw a dozen maids wearing various colors of bellybands, squeezed into the small chamber, resting.

A trace of surprise flickered in his eyes.

This was Xu Yuan’s first visit to the servants’ quarters, and his first realization of how rudimentary the living conditions were for those maids.

Although the Xuanying Attic was vast and luxurious, it only provided three cramped and narrow chambers as dormitories for the servants, with all other places dedicated to storage and dining rooms for the service of the masters.

And of these three chambers, one was inhabited by the guards who operated the Formation.

Sensing the surprise in Xu Yuan’s heart, Lou Ji glanced at the room and said with a frivolous laugh:

"Changtian, you seem quite astonished?"

Withdrawing his will-spirit from that expanse of fair thighs, Xu Yuan shook his head slightly:

"A little, I suppose. I thought it would be bigger."

The Xuanyin Pavilion was so lavish yet the maids’ living quarters were even worse than the nanny’s room at his house from a previous life.

Lou Ji said with a light chuckle:

"If you can’t bear it, Changtian, favor them all at once, and naturally, they can move into the upper three floors."

Xu Yuan rolled his eyes at the enchantress:

"I have no such interest."

"Aye...."

Lou Ji’s voice drew out, followed by a light laugh: "Indeed, with misses like Li Qingyan and Tianyan, our Changtian naturally wouldn’t care for these servant girls."

Xu Yuan didn’t want to engage with this woman and asked softly:

"Sister, the place you mentioned is where..."

Before he could finish his sentence.

Boom!!

A massive rumble came from above the attic, causing the entire Xuanying Attic to tremble.

Caught off-guard, Xu Yuan instinctively shuddered.

He suspected it was Tianyan.

Tianyan was by herself in the room, growing angrier as she waited without him to soothe her, and then she started to wreak havoc.

After a moment’s pause, Xu Yuan looked at Lou Ji beside him.

Lou Ji, with her long hair cascading like ink and eyes profound and alluring, was looking with interest towards the upper floor:

"Oh... they actually started fighting."

Xu Yuan was startled and asked incomprehensibly:

"Who?"

Lou Ji withdrew her gaze and crossed her arms across her chest, her tone slightly amused:

"Oh no, it’s not a fight; it’s a unilateral lesson.

"Changtian, the attendant concubine you acquired is being schooled by the Saintess from Jiatiange~"

"......" Xu Yuan clicked his tongue and chuckled without further concern.

Seeing his nonchalant reaction, Lou Ji stepped forward to join him, her interest piqued, and inquired:

"Aren’t you worried?"

"Worried about what?"

"The two girls have already come to blows."

"Didn’t you say it yourself? It’s a one-sided lesson."

"But aren’t you curious about the reason?"

"...."

Xu Yuan stopped in his tracks, turned back, and said with a hint of amusement:

"What could be the reason? Tianyan doesn’t provoke others without cause; it must be my Fate Weaver acting mischievously. If she’s getting taught a lesson, then let her be taught."

Lou Ji tilted her head to the side:

"You... don’t feel the slightest bit sorry for her?"

"She always enjoys it."

"...." Lou Ji.

With a lick of her red lips, Lou Ji emitted a seductive aura that could bewitch souls, took his arm with a blossoming smile:

"It seems, Changtian, you really know how to have fun in private~"

Xu Yuan felt the warmth and softness on his arm, knowing that this elder sister was about to tease him again, and glanced at her:

"So you too wish to cause mischief?"

"..."

Surprised by his words, Lou Ji’s phoenix eyes narrowed as her fingertips gently traced circles on his chest, laughing softly:

"What if I do, Changtian? Does your cultivation allow sister to also delight in it?"

"I am the Innate Taoist Body."

Xu Yuan replied indifferently, "In just over a year, I have nearly reached the level of Integration Body and have already mastered Dao Charm. There’s no bottleneck for me in breaking through to Great Grandmaster after Integration Body."

As he was speaking, a cherry blossom emitting a bewitching pink light appeared in his hand.

Looking at the brilliant petals, Lou Ji’s sensually full red lips formed an o-shape, with a few deliberately exaggerated hints of surprise,

"Enchantress Divine Taoist Charm..."

After murmuring to herself, Lou Ji held him even tighter, the soft evil squished and deformed,

"It seems I will truly enjoy spending time with you in the future, Changtian~"

"It’s just... how many years will I have to wait?"

Xu Yuan glanced at her,

"Within five years, I will surpass Xu Changge."

"Pfft..."

Lou Ji couldn’t hold back.

"..." Xu Yuan’s eyes twitched.

Clearing her throat and returning to normal, Lou Ji reached up to tousle his hair, her touch as gentle as water,

"Ahem... Changtian, you truly are a genius. Your sister believes in you. However, Xu Changge is currently no match for your sister, so it seems I’ll have to wait even longer."

Xu Yuan scoffed, avoiding continuing the topic and instead asked,

"Xu Changge is no match for you?"

Lou Ji cast a coquettish glance at him,

"Do you really think so highly of your brother that you believe he could defeat me in a ranked battle?"

Xu Yuan’s eyes showed a trace of surprise,

"Is Xu Changge really just Primordial?"

"What else?" Lou Ji responded nonchalantly, "At the peak of Primordial in one’s prime is a pinnacle that stands out through the ages."

Xu Yuan explained in a low voice,

"He broke through Primordial ten years ago; I thought he could be hiding his true strength."

Upon hearing this, Lou Ji sighed softly,

"The path he cultivates is too difficult; after integrating it into his body, it’s nearly impossible to release it again."

After a brief pause,

Lou Ji pondered for a moment and then softly said, "However, if it’s a fight to the death, Xu Changge’s sword intent could be fatal to me."

Hearing this, Xu Yuan thought again of Xu Changge’s ultimate move from the Cangyuan Chronicles.

That sword that reversed causality.

In a regular fight, Elder Brother Wang surely couldn’t beat this older sister, but his trump card could potentially take her down in an instant.

After all, the real world doesn’t have health bars.

Primordial cutting down a Semi-Saint...

Yeah, it seems there is still a long road ahead for him if he wants to thoroughly thrash Xu Changge.

If only he were still a Mortal Transcendence ghost.

Thinking of this, Xu Yuan suddenly laughed.

Lou Ji thought he was laughing at her and pinched his waist hard, somewhat displeased,

"What are you laughing about, Changtian?"

Xu Yuan winced in pain, "Smack," he shook off her hand and said,

"I have a move that can break through Xu Changge’s sword intent."

"...."

The air grew still for a moment,

Lou Ji leaned on his arm, pursing her red lips as her sparkling and translucent phoenix eyes seemed to harbor laughter.

Xu Yuan clenched his fist a bit harder.

His cultivation might be the floor tile of the Prime Minister’s Mansion, but he was still a genius after all. It was a harsh truth that surprisingly no one believed.

Shrugging off her arm around him, Xu Yuan snorted with laughter,

"Hah, if you don’t believe it, so be it. You’ll understand eventually."

"...."

Lou Ji took two steps back, pretending to be weak and vulnerable, yet her seductive swaying carried an entrancing charm that unconsciously made one want to wield swords and daggers for her.

Xu Yuan looked at her intently,

"Stop bewitching, let’s get to business."

Having said that,

Without waiting for her response, he turned around and pushed open the wooden door at the end of the corridor that led to the storage space.

No sooner had the door opened than a piercing laughter came from inside,

"Hehe haha haha!! Lou Ji, you’ve finally come again. I’ve been so bored waiting, hurry, continue to torment me!! Lou Ji, is this all the Black Scale Leader can do?!"

This mad voice caused Xu Yuan’s eardrums to ring, his brow slightly furrowing as he could now see the scene inside the storage space.

It wasn’t the blood and gore Xu Yuan imagined.

Instead, the interior of the storage was tranquil and elegant, with incense burning and some tea sets arranged.

Of course, besides that, there were numerous jars and specialized research equipment that Xu Yuan couldn’t understand.

One could imagine Lou Ji, the enchantress sister, leisurely sipping tea while concocting her potions in laid-back elegance.

However, all this serenity was disrupted by a woman at the far end of the storage.

A near-naked, disheveled woman was securely shackled to a stone bed, struggling as she raised her head, continuously spewing vulgar and filthy words from her mouth.

Gazing with spiritual sight and recognizing the exquisite beauty of her face, Xu Yuan’s eyes involuntarily narrowed a fraction.

This woman looked familiar to him.

It seemed... she was also one of the heroines from the Cangyuan Chronicles.
