Chapter 52: The Beauty Departs

  Shen Xiang returned to the Dan Wang Pavilion and hurriedly went to the secret room to cultivate, because Su Mei Yao was going to teach him some moves that could prevent poisonous gas and other sinister tricks, otherwise he would not be so lucky next time.

  "You little demon, you should provoke that old man today and make him attack you. Then you can take him down together. You're still too tender." Bai YuYu was wearing a black dress, with her hands clasped over her chest, leaning against the wall. Her icy eyes were filled with murderous intent.

  Su Mei Yao smiled and said: "Sister, I remember you said at the time that you were very satisfied with this kid's behavior, so why now..."

  "He's still not hateful enough, not ruthless enough!"

  "Yao Yao, are those clothes worn out? Do you want me to go buy some new and better-looking ones?" Shen Xiang chuckled and said. In order to please these two beauties, Shen Xiang had used every trick in the book. He knew that women loved wearing beautiful clothes, so he targeted that aspect, and it had yielded pretty good results.

  Her pale face floated with a hint of blush, and her tone became softer: "Not for now."

  Su Mei Yao covered her mouth with her delicate hand and smiled slyly, pouting as she said: "You little scamp, what kind of bewitching soup did my sister feed you? She has more clothes than me, and I'm always so good to you, yet the things you give me are so few. You're really biased."

  Shen Xiang stuck out his tongue, took a deep breath of the faint scent emanating from Su Mei Yao's body, and deliberately made a bitter face as he said: "If it wasn't like this, how could I make Yu Yu sister feel superior?"

  "Hmph, you think you're clever!" Bai Youyou snorted softly.

  "Sister, why don't you just give me all those clothes?" Su Mei Yao said with a smile.

  "Do you still want to give it? Our clothes are usually worn interchangeably." Bai Yu glared at her.

  Shen Xiang knew that the two beauties were cooped up in the small house in the ring all day, so they must be very bored. Therefore, he not only had people make many beautiful clothes for them but also often came up with some small tricks to give to them, making them less bored. This made the two beauties feel very happy, although they were once powerful, now they had lost their strength and were just ordinary women.

  Bai Youyou and Su Meiyao both knew how to deal with the colorless and odorless poison, they quickly taught Shen Xiang a method of using true energy to protect the meridians.

  Leaving the secret room, Shen Xiang arrived at the pavilion in the backyard. Meng Bo and Shen Lu Zong were already there, discussing alchemy techniques. Shen Xiang joined them, sharing his experiences, which benefited all three greatly.

  "Kid, you've caused another big commotion today. I really don't know how someone as young as you can be so good at stirring up trouble." Shen Lu Zong shook his head and chuckled.

  Meng Bolang smiled and said: "This kid is not an ordinary kid, otherwise I wouldn't have lost to him. It seems that the war between your Shen family and Yao family is inevitable."

  Shen Xiang curled his lips and said: "This is all their fault, I just did what I thought was right."

  "Shen Gongzi, Gezhu, Dan Wang senior, I didn't expect you all to be here!" A soft and gentle voice came, Shen Xiang's heart skipped a beat, this was the voice of Hua Yueyun.

  As for the things that only Shen Xiang and Hua Yueyun knew, Meng Bo and Shen Lu Zong also knew something about it. Otherwise, Danxiang Medicine Hall wouldn't have sold those spiritual medicines to Danwang Pavilion at such a low price.

  The two old men left with a sense of propriety, while Shen Xiang secretly cursed in his heart.

  Huā Yuè Yún was dressed very modestly this time, her beautiful jade-like body wrapped in a white long gown, looking like an immortal fairy, with a subtle and alluring charm that made Shen Xiǎo's heart praise continuously, but he had some worries on his face.

  Seeing Shen Xiang's gloomy face, Hua Yueyun said with a pout: "I knew you disliked me."

  Shen Xiang hastily explained: "No, it's just that every time you, Moon Art sister, are too... too tempting, making people want to commit a crime!"

  Huā Yuè Yún's face lit up with joy, and she smiled sweetly: "Are you worried that you won't be able to get me? Don't worry, as long as you enter the Dan Xiang Tao Yuan and become an outstanding alchemist inside, I'll be yours."

  Shen Xiang shook his head and said, "I'm not going, I've already said that I want to enter Tai Wu Men."

  "Little rascal, are you thinking of getting someone now?"

  Shen Xiang hastily said: "No, Moon Art sister you are really beautiful, but you know I and Xianxian have a marriage contract, so if I want a concubine, I still need to get her consent."

  Huayue Yun let out a soft sigh, then stuck her tongue out at Shen Xiang and teased: "I don't want to be your concubine, I want to be your maid."

  "By the way, I'm going back to Danxiang Taoyuan today. Are you coming with me?" Huayue Yun asked with a face full of expectation.

  Shen Xiang was shocked and said: "What about Danxiang Medicine Hall? I've decided to go to Taiwu Gate, thank you for your kindness."

  "Don't be surprised, every owner of the manor is called Huajueyueyun. I managed Danxiang Medicine Manor for two years and now it's time for me to leave too. My real name isn't even Huajueyueyun!" Huajueyueyun said, her face filled with disappointment as Shen Xiang still didn't follow her.

  "I'm really sorry, next time I have a chance, I will definitely go to Danxiang Taoyuan to find you." Shen Xiang sighed.

  Huayue smiled and said: "Don't worry, I guarantee that Danxiang Medicine Hall will continue to cooperate with your Danwang Pavilion in the future, and the price won't increase."

  Shen Xiang couldn't understand why this woman wanted to be his maid, but he was indeed grateful to her: "Thank you, Yuemei, you don't have to be my maid, let's be friends! I'll go find you at Danxiang Taoyuan in the future."

  "You don't want me to be your maid now, but you'll definitely regret it later! Remember to come find me at Dan Xiang Tao Yuan, I won't tell you my real name for now, and I won't make it easy for you to find me either."

  She spoke and hurriedly leaned over to kiss Shen Xiang's lips, then giggled and ran away, leaving Shen Xiang stunned like a stone statue.

  "What...what's wrong with this woman?" Shen Xiang licked his lips, still savoring the lingering fragrance, which made him feel a kind of inexplicable wonder.

  Su Mei Yao smiled and said, "This little demon seems to have taken a liking to you. I really can't figure out what's so good about you that both Xue Xianxian and this demon are interested in you."

  Shen Xiang snorted and said with a smirk: "That's my charm, you'll understand later!"

  These days, Shen Xiang hasn't been refining pills, but he has been accumulating dragon's saliva to induce the birth of spiritual medicine. He is preparing to start learning how to refine mortal-grade high-quality pills and spiritual-grade low-quality pills, which will be his new challenge. Moreover, his current strength is also at the 8th level of the Mortal Martial Realm.

  The next morning, Shen Xiang arrived at the square in front of the Yao family's gate. This afternoon was the martial arts competition between Leng Youlan and Song Nanming. One was a prince, and the other was the daughter of a general. Both of their strengths were at the seventh level of ordinary martial arts, which was highly anticipated.
