"Get lost, all you do is talk the talk. You didn't even call me once after I went to Jiangnan City, and now you're trying to fool me!" Cao Xin was secretly pleased, but most women value their pride and dignity, so she wouldn't admit it. As the saying goes, "A face of iron is as fragile as paper," if you can't control yourself, you shouldn't dream of being surrounded by beautiful women and having a new groom every night.
"Oh, my dear sister, I've been thinking about you every day. I was worried about interfering with your cultivation, but now I feel like you've reached the level of drawing qi into and expelling it from your body~" Li Yang had given several of his confidantes the Void Sword Technique, the exquisite sword control technique of Mount Shu, and the energy provided by the essence of Chi You's blood. These mortals who had never cultivated before suddenly reached a level that ordinary qualified cultivators would take several years to achieve, just like a rocket.
"Yes. It's unbelievable. I never thought such things existed in the human world. I thought those fairy tales were just jokes, and that fox spirits and demons were just stories about scholars. I never imagined that such things actually existed in the world, and right before my eyes~" Cao Xin's eyes were a little strange when she mentioned fox spirits and demons, with a hint of reproach and jealousy flashing across them.
Li Yang suddenly remembered his cheap, beautiful disciple Hu Meiniang and her little sister, Fox Sister. They were truly bewitching women who could seduce men to the bone. He already had a lot of women, almost to the point of killing the wrong person and not letting them go. Why did he suddenly find two women as disciples? Could it be that Li Yang's tastes had changed and he wanted to try something different later, like a teacher-student romance?
"Yes, all of these are here. Given time, I think you can all become celestial maidens, soaring through the clouds like Chang'e, achieving immortality. Then we can be together forever, for a thousand years, ten thousand years, never to be separated~" Li Yang murmured, kissing Cao Xin passionately. Cao Xin's eyes immediately became hazy, her bright, dark eyes filled with mist. The sweet feeling in her heart was many times more comforting than eating a ginseng fruit. She had long forgotten about being a vixen or not, only thinking about how she and Li Yang could live forever, inseparable for thousands of years, loving each other dearly.
Li Yang's lips curled into a slight smile, secretly pleased with himself; his wicked scheme had succeeded. He easily changed the subject, making Cao Xin forget about Hu Meiniang. Just as he thought, it was practically impossible to prevent a woman from being jealous, but it was equally impossible to prevent her from listening to sweet words. If a woman falls in love with you, and you roughly push her down, the first time she might not be disgusted but rather excited and happy. But when you treat her with such roughness for the nth time, won't she lose all patience and push you away, telling you to go find Wu Guniang to solve the problem? No woman dislikes gentleness and sweet words.
"Yes, that's something to yearn for and be fascinated by!" Cao Xin said dreamily.
Li Yang chuckled, secretly pleased with himself. He didn't waste any more words. Imagine someone who's been starving for so long, suddenly presented with a top-quality glutinous rice dumpling, peeled and ready for anything. Wouldn't you immediately become an erection man, ready to plow your own field of responsibility?
Another gust of wind swept by, and this time the two rolled around on the big bed. Of course, the big bed could no longer satisfy their desire for new excitement after the initial intensity. So, they left their passionate marks on the window, the dressing table, the chair, the sofa, the toilet, and even the kitchen counter—anywhere they could make love.
"Let's go downstairs for dinner?" Cao Xin's cultivation level was still too low, and her physical strength was still lacking. After taking a bath and having another round of fun with Li Yang in the bathtub, she cleaned herself up and felt that her body was empty and her stomach was rumbling. She felt like she would die if she didn't eat. She felt like she could swallow a whole roasted cow in one bite. This was the result of her greatly increased physical strength after cultivation. Since she could not fully absorb external spiritual energy to replenish it, she had to rely on food for energy. Her appetite had increased dramatically.
"Great, I'm hungry too~" Li Yang stretched, feeling incredibly refreshed. He'd given Cao Xin and the others the Void Sword Technique, while he himself had received two temple techniques: the Yin-Yang Harmony Technique and a technique from that mysterious Dharma Wheel. They were remarkably similar, both using sexual intercourse to enhance cultivation. However, the one from the Dharma Wheel seemed to be more profound in its latter half, a miraculous technique that could only be practiced after reaching the Qi Refining and Spirit Transformation realm. The Yin-Yang Harmony Technique, on the other hand, could be practiced after reaching the Innate realm.
Chapter 908: Frost, a Little Bird Clinging to Someone
It was practically tailor-made for Li Yang. In a great mood, Li Yang gave the cultivation technique an extremely cool name: the Nine Revolutions Golden Body Technique. After all, the final realm of this great technique was to achieve an unparalleled golden body, indestructible and reaching the Earth Immortal level, escaping reincarnation and achieving immortality. As for how to reach even higher realms, such as True Immortal or above, the Nine Revolutions Golden Body Technique didn't provide any information on that. It seemed to be an incomplete technique, requiring Li Yang to have another stroke of luck to explore and further improve his cultivation level.
However, reaching the Earth Immortal realm would make one virtually invincible in the mortal world. After all, the highest realm of cultivators hidden in the immortal mountains and caves of the world doesn't seem to be very high, right? There isn't a single Earth Immortal. The information in the minds of Nado and Jiuying Wanzi should be accurate.
The two went downstairs together. Just as they stepped out of the stairwell, they were greeted by a vast sea of flowers, their rich fragrance overwhelming Li Yang, causing him to sneeze uncontrollably. What Li Yang found most unbearable was that the flowers, seemingly immortal, were arranged in a giant heart shape. It was blatantly a scheme to woo a girl, putting on such a grand display right in front of him. "Damn, who's so shameless as to do something so despicable?" Li Yang muttered disdainfully, then pulled Cao Xin away.
Cao Xin's expression was slightly off, but Li Yang didn't pay much attention. He pulled Cao Xin away, and Cao Xin left immediately without lingering. At that moment, an extremely flashy Maybach roared up and screeched to a halt in front of them. The car shuddered slightly, the door opened, and a young man in his early thirties stepped out with an air of elegance. Seeing Cao Xin and Li Yang holding hands, he frowned slightly, then regained his composure, opened his arms, and said with deep emotion, "Cao Xin, do you see this? These are the roses I'm giving you, nine thousand nine hundred and ninety, representing my heart!"
"Zuo Tengfei, I've already made it clear to you that I don't like you, and I have a boyfriend. Why are you causing all this trouble and pestering me? Do you think you're a child? Don't you think you're disrespecting me?" Cao Xin's face was serious, emanating a faint, cold, and sharp aura. She was now a cultivator with considerable initial strength, and her anger was not to be underestimated. While a cultivator at the early stage of Qi Induction was inferior to a master of Transformation Realm, a cultivator at the mid-stage of Qi Induction was far more powerful than a martial artist who had reached the highest level of spiritual and physical cultivation at the Great Perfection of the Innate Realm.
"Cao Xin, I love your cold and aloof attitude. The more indifferent you are to me, the more I become infatuated with you, unable to extricate myself. I've fallen deeply in love with you, beyond saving. Please don't be so cruel to me!" The middle-aged man clutched his chest in pain, completely ignoring Li Yang's presence, and launched a fierce offensive against Cao Xin.
“Sir, I have medicine that can cure your illness,” Li Yang spoke up, feeling that not saying anything would make him seem irresponsible and unmanly. Zuo Tengfei frowned and glanced at Li Yang, then asked Cao Xin, “Who is this guy?”
"My boyfriend. You can give up now, right?" Cao Xin said arrogantly, her arm around Li Yang's. Zuo Tengfei's expression changed drastically. Although he had guessed something from their intimate demeanor, hearing Cao Xin admit it herself and act so intimately made his heart sink, as if struck by lightning. He gave Li Yang a cold glance and said, "Tell me, what conditions do you want for me to leave Cao Xin?"
"Don't be so stubborn and obstinate, buddy. Otherwise, there'll be no going back when you regret it." Li Yang earnestly advised him. Nowadays, he was somewhat disdainful of arguing with his own people. If it were the old him, he would have already slapped him across the face, knocking out all his teeth, and had a great time.
"Hey, I've really run into someone who doesn't know his own limitations. You just said you have a cure, I'd like to hear what kind of good medicine you have to cure my lovesickness?" Zuo Tengfei glanced at Li Yang with disdain and sneered mockingly.
"My medicine is cheap and highly effective, and it's sold in all major pesticide markets. Its scientific name is DDT~" Li Yang said very seriously. Cao Xin couldn't help but chuckle. Even amidst the blooming wildflowers, nothing could compare to the beauty before her. Li Yang's eyes were full of admiration. Upon hearing this, Zuo Tengfei was so enraged that he almost went berserk. Seeing Cao Xin's seductive demeanor, he felt an intense, itch-like desire, like a cat's claws scratching at his heart. He felt an urge to die. He felt that even if he controlled all of China, he wouldn't feel happy or satisfied if he didn't get to taste this woman's beauty.
"You little punk~ You don't know who I am, do you? How dare you talk to me like that? Believe me or not, I can make you homeless with just one phone call, unable to find a job to make a living anywhere in the country?" Zuo Tengfei gritted his teeth and squeezed out the words, his angry expression as if Li Yang were his father's killer, someone who had slept with his wife without paying.
"You've piqued my interest with that," Li Yang said, craning his neck and pricking up his ears, "Festive festivities are great. I'm all ears. Tell me about your impressive background, let me broaden my horizons and catch your eye!" This nearly drove Zuo Tengfei mad. Ignoring his status, Zuo Tengfei immediately attacked Li Yang, beating him until Li Yang was sprawled on the ground. However, he restrained himself. In his eyes, he was a fine porcelain doll, while Li Yang was nothing but a broken tile. He wouldn't stoop to the level of a nobody like Li Yang. Instead of striking, he pointed at Li Yang's nose and cursed, "Have you heard of Longteng Group? It's my family's business, and I'm the sole legal heir! Tell me, do you think I have the ability?"
"Longteng Group? What the hell is that? Have you ever heard of it?" Li Yang asked Cao Xin, feigning ignorance, his arm deliberately rubbing against her large breasts, his tone completely uninformed, as if he didn't know that a Maybach was a super-luxury car costing at least five million. Cao Xin found it amusing, knowing that Li Yang was deliberately trying to annoy Zuo Tengfei. Longteng Group was a leading real estate behemoth in China, with a presence in super-powerful cities like Shanghai. With assets exceeding 10 billion, it wielded immense power and influence in the country, practically able to do whatever it wanted.
"I'm not really sure either, and I'm not interested in this. If you like it, I'll go back and brush up on my knowledge in this area so I can keep up with you and cooperate with you, okay?" Cao Xin leaned against Li Yang like a completely submissive little woman, meekly playing the role of a virtuous wife and loving mother. Compared to her previous attitude of finding fault with Zuo Tengfei and ignoring him with a frosty expression, it was like night and day, incomparable.
Chapter 909: The Giant
The two of them acted so sweetly, completely ignoring Zuo Tengfei in front of him. Zuo Tengfei, the pampered young master who had been spoiled since childhood, had never suffered such humiliation. He had never encountered even the slightest setback. Instantly, his face turned purple, like a ripe eggplant, the color spreading from his skin to his neck and behind his ears.
"Cao Xin, how could you treat me like this! Let me tell you, don't test my patience, otherwise, not only will this scoundrel suffer, but don't blame me for being heartless!" Zuo Tengfei said, staring at Cao Xin and Li Yang with a sinister expression.
"Really? How impressive! I'm so scared! You'd better make me regret this, I love being regretted!" Li Yang wasn't scared at all; instead, he became smug, sticking his face out in front of Zuo Tengfei. "Go ahead and bite me if you dare!"
"Crunch, crunch~" Zuo Tengfei practically ground his teeth to powder, his expression one of wanting to devour Li Yang alive. "Fine, you two just wait, you two adulterers~" Zuo Tengfei also harbored resentment towards Cao Xin. Although Cao Xin was incredibly beautiful and alluring, exuding the irresistible fragrance of a ripe peach, Zuo Tengfei, as the sole heir to a domestic real estate behemoth, with a net worth exceeding 10 billion, had been with countless beauties, all top-tier, from young models and supermodels to campus beauties and A-list celebrities; he wouldn't even bother with second-rate ones. The Longteng Group held a board meeting, engaging in heated discussions about its nationwide expansion strategy. After all, land in the capital and Shanghai was incredibly valuable, and real estate development had reached saturation, no longer the ideal locations for making money. Instead, local cities still offered tempting land waiting to be developed, radiating the alluring aroma of cream cakes.
Jiangdong City is a well-known city in China, especially in the last two years, with Jiangdong University gaining immense popularity, which has also boosted Jiangdong City's reputation nationwide. As a leading real estate behemoth in the country, it naturally disdains obscure small cities. At its board meeting, it finalized plans for several first-tier cities, Jiangdong City being one of them. New branch companies were registered to launch regional expansion strategies, with Jiangdong City being a key location. As an only child, Zuo Tengfei is naturally arrogant and domineering, a super-spoiled brat in the empire, and one of the most notorious young masters in the capital.
It's time for him to enrich himself and start his career as heir. After all, he's not young anymore. His father, Zuo Yongchun, is also annoyed by his constant scandals and lack of focus on his duties. Taking advantage of this opportunity, he has sent him to manage a branch company in a city, as the branch company's general manager, giving him full power over life and death.
With a super team meticulously prepared for him by his father to set up a new company, he was merely there to gain experience and learn. His main purpose was to learn, so his job as general manager was simply to stamp and sign documents. Other matters were handled by several deputy managers and a sexy, capable female secretary. He was practically a hands-off boss, enjoying himself immensely.
But he was having such a great time that after signing and stamping the documents, he felt bored and restless. His idleness led him to indulge in frivolous pursuits, so he drove his expensive sports car to Jiangdong University to pick up girls and seduce innocent female students. These days, many girls are incredibly materialistic and materialistic, even the most beautiful girls on campus. He was also blessed with good looks, and he was almost always successful. The moment the car door opened, those attractive girls, blushing and excited, would get in. Then, under his onslaught of flowers and wine, witnessing the frivolity of a high-society figure, their hearts would flutter and they would lose themselves, easily being taken to a hotel for a one-night stand, maintaining the novelty for a while. Once he was done with them, he'd just kick them to the curb.
After experiencing this several times, he finally encountered the most difficult person to capture in history one afternoon. That person was none other than Cao Xin, who had captivated him at first sight. Her professional suit accentuated her mature and fiery figure, her silk stockings, high heels, and her meticulously styled, satin-like hair. Every smile and frown exuded the unique charm of a mature woman, possessing a bewitching power that instantly pierced his heart, causing him to pursue her relentlessly like a madman.
Unfortunately, women of this caliber are far beyond the reach of naive girls. Conquering them is a level of difficulty he's never experienced before. These actresses are entertainment figures, essentially prostitutes in ancient times. Now, they've become entertainers, and that circle is inherently a place of fame and fortune. Everyone jumps in for fame and profit, resorting to any means necessary to climb the ladder and generate buzz, disregarding any semblance of dignity. So, as soon as he, Zuo Tengfei, flaunts his Maybach and reveals his identity, those women immediately tremble, their juices flowing freely, their faces beaming with seductive smiles as they throw themselves into his arms, letting him ride and dominate them. As long as he spends some money, buys some expensive bags, says a few good words to the big bosses of entertainment companies, or invests in a movie or TV series, everything will be fine. You do your thing, I'll do mine. Everyone settles their money and goes about their own business.
As for college students or teenage girls, they're not mature enough, their minds are full of romance and love, and a car full of flowers and a drive around are enough to win them over; they're really not much of a challenge. The most difficult to deal with are mature, successful career women like Cao Xin, who don't pursue fame or fortune but have a strong sense of self-respect. Cao Xin gave him a complete taste of what it feels like to be ignored.
Half a month has passed since Zuo Tengfei first met Cao Xin. He conducted a thorough search for Cao Xin, obtaining all the information about her. He also learned that she had an impressive background—her father was a high-ranking official—and seemed to have connections with the city's underworld. She was a woman not to be trifled with. However, he was blinded by lust and had long lost his reason. He was determined to pin Cao Xin down and fondle her thoroughly before he was satisfied, having driven himself into a dead end.
From then on, rain or shine, on holidays, he would appear on time every day at Jiangdong University, on the road or at the main gate, wherever Cao Xin might pass by. He even bribed the security guard to keep watch at her apartment complex, always bringing a carload of flowers—9,999 blooms. Every time he appeared on campus, he attracted countless girls.
The screams and the boys' disgusted looks! He was smug and very pleased with himself. Although Cao Xin always ignored him and didn't even glance at him.
The more Cao Xin acted this way, the more Zuo Tengfei's desire itch. He thought Cao Xin was the best woman in the world. The more he couldn't have her, the more he thought she was the most desirable and delicious one. He was almost going crazy. At work, his mind was filled with her image. Even when he was in the office, pinning his flirtatious female secretary down on the large desk, lifting her skirt and tearing off her modesty, Cao Xin's image was still flying around in his mind.
Chapter 910: I'll Beat You to Death
Over the course of ten days, he became a super celebrity at Jiangdong University, though his reputation was mixed. The boys vehemently despised and disgusted him, while most of the girls wore infatuated expressions, lamenting that she wasn't the female lead; if she were, she would have already eloped with him. This incident also attracted the attention of Song Tian'er, Su Xiaoxiao, Zhao Ran, Zhao Lihua, Gao Qingmei, and others, who all felt indignant on Cao Xinming's behalf and wanted to teach this bastard a lesson.
However, Cao Xin, as the eldest sister, led the group of beauties just like Song Tian'er, while Su Xiaoxiao, the most capable, had been helping Li Yang with his gambling and other low-level businesses. She possessed remarkable skills and keen insight. The three of them discussed it and immediately began investigating this frivolous and shameless man. With the Shadow Group involved, it was just a matter of Su Xiaoxiao making a phone call, and Zuo Tengfei was instantly exposed in their eyes. They didn't care about his scandalous affairs, but the fact that he was the eldest son of the Longteng Group still slightly surprised the women. It wasn't that they were afraid of him, but rather that such a large group was even more difficult to deal with than the Brilliant Years of the past. After all, dealing with Brilliant Years was like controlling the source of the jade – it was like choking them. This Longteng Group was a real estate conglomerate with a net worth exceeding 10 billion; they were not easy to deal with.
They immediately called Xue Tao, who was very experienced in this area, to ask for her opinion. In the end, she said to remain calm and wait for Li Yang to return before making any plans. After all, their strength was not enough to fight against such a behemoth. Only when Li Yang returned could they combine their strength to fight against such a behemoth.
The women all knew Xue Tao's shrewdness and skill, so they accepted her suggestion without much hesitation. They adopted a discreet approach, letting Cao Xin face Zuo Tengfei alone, while Su Xiaoxiao arranged for Bagua Sect disciples to secretly follow and protect her, lest Zuo Tengfei, in a desperate situation, do something outrageous to Cao Xin.
After two weeks of fruitless pursuit, Zuo Tengfei's patience was almost completely exhausted. He was burning with frustration, like a cat clawing at its prey, and desperately wanted to force himself on her. However, considering Cao Xin's background, he wasn't completely clueless and knew it wasn't wise to resort to violence. Besides, he genuinely liked Cao Xin and didn't want to force her; he wanted to win her over through his own efforts. He continued his daily flower-delivery offensive.
He was still doing the same thing downstairs today, but he was very curious as to why Cao Xin hadn't come down for several days after going up. He was staking out the place downstairs until he was in pain, but Cao Xin still hadn't come down. There were some things at the company that he had to handle personally, so he had no choice but to grit his teeth, leave the flowers behind, and go back to deal with the business. Afterwards, he hurriedly returned to the community and asked the security guard, Cao Xin's lackey, about the situation. He learned that Cao Xin hadn't come down since she went up, and several days had passed.
