Staying Alive Cautiously in the Celestial Realm and Becoming the Strongest

It was not without reason that Guard Hall had repeatedly sent people to invite him to join them!

Hu Meiniang\'s smile was exceedingly sincere, "Actually, we have no ill intentions. A talent like Fellow Daoist is precisely what we need!"

We? Our sect?

Wang Chen\'s eyes flashed, "Are you speaking of the Hehuan Sect?"

"Correct."

Hu Meiniang pursed her lips and smiled, "A few worthless lives lost are just that, Fellow Daoist has no need to abandon his home and flee. As long as you\'re willing to serve under our Hehuan Sect, resources for your Aperture Opening and Breakthrough Mansion will be offered with both hands."

"Furthermore..."

She extended her little tongue to lick her lips seductively, her eyes brimming with implicit seduction as a hint of spring warmth,"I have a junior sect sister, aged twenty-eight, still of pure Yin constitution. I could introduce her to Fellow Daoist for dual cultivation, to enjoy the ultimate bliss."

Hu Meiniang\'s voice was very charming, sounding as if countless gentle hands were softly caressing one\'s Divine Soul.

It made one unwittingly want to continue listening, to hear her utter more sweet nothings.

"Such formidable seduction technique!"

Wang Chen sincerely praised, "No wonder Xin Han fell for your sect\'s ways!"

Haven\'t eaten pork but have seen pigs run; the renowned name of the female cultivators from the Hehuan Sect, along with the seduction techniques and bedroom arts they practiced, could not be separated from each other.

How could Wang Chen not have heard of it?

But only now, experiencing it firsthand, did he genuinely feel it lived up to its reputation!

Hu Meiniang\'s appearance, figure, temperament, voice, and expressions all embodied "seduction," penetrating deeply into the bone and directly into the Divine Soul. Ordinary cultivators simply couldn\'t withstand such temptation.

Too bad the one she was using these techniques on was Wang Chen.

Among Wang Chen\'s four foundational attributes, the Divine Soul attribute had always been the highest.

Moreover, he had cultivated the Heavenly Dragon Vajra Method to the fourth layer, and inside his Sea of Consciousness was the Ancient Taoist Stele providing protection. Let alone a Qi Cultivation-tier cultivator like Hu Meiniang, even if her master or even her grandmaster took action, they would not be able to bewitch Wang Chen\'s mind.

All of Hu Meiniang\'s flirtatious glances were effectively thrown at Wang Chen\'s feet!

And upon hearing Wang Chen\'s praise, Hu Meiniang\'s expression abruptly changed, her pretty face turning pale in an instant.

This female cultivator from the Hehuan Sect forced a smile, "Fellow Daoist jests."

The ambiguous atmosphere she had deliberately created had already completely dissipated!

"I don\'t like joking with others."

Wang Chen looked at her and said, "Fellow Daoist Hu, I don\'t care what schemes you have, nor do I wish to get involved. Whether Xin Han is alive or not has nothing to do with me."

"I only ask you this, do you wish to battle with me?"

No sooner had his words fallen than the Wind Thunder Sword in his hand suddenly burst forth with a crisp vibrating sound.

As if it was thirsting for battle!

Facing the overtly hostile Wang Chen, Hu Meiniang\'s expression flickered, and suddenly she put on a tearful face, "How could a humble woman like me be your opponent, Fellow Daoist? If you wish to kill, I can only accept my fate."

She lifted her head, revealing her fair and delicate neck, appearing even more pitifully charming.

Swoosh!

The Wind Thunder Sword shot out like lightning, aiming directly for the vital point at Hu Meiniang\'s throat!

However, Wang Chen\'s strike hit nothing but air.

This female cultivator from the Hehuan Sect had instantly moved ten feet away the moment he struck with his sword.

She sighed, "Fellow Daoist has such a ruthless heart!"

Wang Chen remained silent, continuing to control the Wind Thunder Sword, ready to launch another attack.

"Wait!"

Hu Meiniang quickly said, "Consider me scared of you. How about this, if you return the Sword Pill to me, we can write off our grudge!"

Sword Pill?

The Sword Pill that once belonged to Golden Snake Gentleman was indeed now in Wang Chen\'s possession.

"You\'re not too good looking, and yet you dream so beautifully."

Wang Chen scoffed, "Let\'s have that battle first. If I lose, it\'s not just the Sword Pill—my life can also be taken away!"

The preciousness of this Sword Pill was in no way inferior to the Wind Thunder Sword.

Wang Chen was not a greedy person, but for Hu Meiniang to think she could take back the Sword Pill with just a few words was utterly delusional!

If he actually gave it to her, he would only be seen as weak by the other side.

Therefore, his refusal was emphatic!

"I look ugly?"

However, Hu Meiniang seemed not to hear what Wang Chen had said afterwards; her pretty eyes widened in disbelief, as she touched her own face with trembling hands, her delicate body shaking ever so slightly.

It was as if her worldview and values had completely collapsed, leaving her with nothing worth living for.

"Ahem, ahem!"

Seeing Hu Meiniang in this state, Wang Chen actually felt a twinge of embarrassment and coughed twice before saying, "We\'ll never meet again!"

He then pushed the Silver Spirit Flying Shuttle to its limits, instantaneously transforming into a streak of light, fleeing towards the west.

"Wait!"

But no sooner had Wang Chen flown half a mile than he was intercepted by Hu Meiniang.

The Cloud Lotus flown by this Hehuan Sect cultivator was clearly a higher grade of flying artifact than the Silver Spirit Flying Shuttle.

Wang Chen\'s eyes turned icy in an instant, and he concentrated his mana, ready to fight her to the death.

Among all the Qi Cultivation cultivators he had encountered, Hu Meiniang was the most enigmatic; she seemed shrouded in a mist, making it impossible to see through her facade.

But Wang Chen would not be intimidated by this; on the contrary, he was confident of victory!

However, if Hu Meiniang decided to flee, he probably wouldn\'t be able to keep her there.

"Fellow Daoist, don\'t rush."

Hu Meiniang had regained her previously cheerful demeanor as if the person deeply hurt just now wasn\'t her at all.

"This Sword Pill is an important item of my sect. Fellow Daoist, possessing the Purple Ziying Wind Thunder Sword from Five Peaks Mountain, you probably don\'t need the Sword Pill. I am willing to pay a high price to reclaim it. May I know your thoughts on this?"

Her expression was very sincere.

Suppressing the surging Qi-Blood within his body, Wang Chen paused before replying, "Five Aperture Opening Pills."

He wasn\'t surprised that she recognized the origin of his flying sword.

"Five Aperture Opening Pills?"

Hu Meiniang was taken aback by Wang Chen\'s bold demand, "Impossible! The most I can do is three."

"Then three it is," Wang Chen said immediately. "Pills in one hand, sword returned in the other."

"How could I possibly have Aperture Opening Pills on me!"

Hu Meiniang said helplessly, "How about this, you come with me to Dongwu Stockade and I\'ll have someone send the Aperture Opening Pills over."

"They can arrive by tomorrow at the earliest!"

"Impossible."

Wang Chen shook his head, "Let\'s make the trade right here. I\'ll come back at this time tomorrow, don\'t try any tricks."

After saying this, he maneuvered the Silver Spirit Flying Shuttle past Hu Meiniang and, in the blink of an eye, disappeared from sight.

This time, Hu Meiniang did not intercept him; her gaze flickering uncertainly. Stay tuned to mvl

The next day at exactly 11 a.m., as the Hehuan Sect cultivator arrived at the agreed location once more, she waited for a great portion of the two hours, but Wang Chen never appeared.

Realizing she had been played, Hu Meiniang cursed furiously, "Damn you!"

"Hehe."

It was at this moment that a gentle and soft voice sounded in her ear, "Meiniang, if something like this happens again, don\'t come looking for me."

Hu Meiniang\'s pretty face instantly turned into one of utter dejection.

"Yes, Master!"

Internally she seethed, "Wang Chen, don\'t let me find you!"
