If it weren’t for the fact that the villains were afraid of them going all out and even destroying the Nine Layer Divine Lotus, the red-haired beauty and her group definitely wouldn’t have survived until Ling Han and the others came.
“Handsome guy, you’re so powerful! Why don’t we team up and cooperate?” The red-haired beauty invited them to work together. “Oh, that’s right, my name is Wei, Meng Wei.”
‘Are we really teaming up to find treasures?’ Ling Han grumbled in his mind. ‘It looks like you want to gobble me up!’
“How does 50-50 sound?” Meng Wei was extremely enthusiastic, and she continued, “Although you’re strong, we’re the ones who are providing the location of the treasure storage. So, splitting the treasures 50-50 isn’t too greedy on our part, right?”
Ling Han sighed, and said, “I still haven’t accepted your invitation yet!”
Meng Wei laughed loudly, and said, “It’s okay, I’m sure you’ll accept my invitation after considering it for a while.”
She didn’t seem to mind that her breasts were undulating as she laughed. It was almost as if her breasts were about to jump out from her armor.
Ling Han’s expression became serious, and he asked, “What treasure storage is this? Do you mind telling me?”
Meng Wei’s expression was as if she expected this answer. “That place was probably the abode of an alchemist, so there are heaps of alchemical pills. Perhaps there are even some pill recipes. If we make copies of the pill recipes, we’ll definitely make huge fortunes selling them.”
Ling Han’s eyes lit up. He was absorbed by the word “alchemist”.
He nodded, and said, “Fine, let’s work together. We’ll split the alchemical pills evenly, and we’ll each make a copy of any pill recipe we find.”
“Deal!” Meng Wei extended her hand.
Ling Han slapped her hand lightly, and the two of them sealed their deal.
They set off toward the abode of the alchemist. However, they decided to rest when night fell, so that they could recover their energy. The red-haired beauty and her group had just experienced an intense battle, after all.
Chapter 1176 - Mind If I Sleep With You?
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
After convincing Hu Feiyun to leave, Ling Han wrapped his arms around Shui Yanyu and prepared to get some rest.
There were outsiders nearby, after all, so it would be a bad idea to enter the Black Tower and risk exposing the secret of his Spatial God Tool.
With a swoosh, Meng Wei entered their tent as she pulled the entrance aside. She was wearing a bright red cloak, and it was evident that she had only just washed her hair. There were still beads of water dripping down her silky red hair, radiating a peculiar type of allure.
“Leader Meng, it’s already so late. For what reason do you come?” Ling Han asked. There was slight irritation in his voice. Meng Wei had come without invitation, and she hadn’t even asked before entering. She was acting far too familiar.
‘You can’t do as you please, even if you’re a woman, and even if you’re a beauty.’
“Guys, mind if I sleep with you?” Meng Wei asked them a shocking question.
Pu!
Ling Han instantly spluttered aloud. Thankfully, he and Shui Yanyu had been together this entire time; otherwise, she would have definitely interrogated him on his relationship with Meng Wei.
Shui Yanyu was also astonished, and she asked, “Sister Meng, are you drunk?”
There was a puzzled look on Meng Wei’s face, and she said, “Why are you two so surprised? Have you two not made love before?”
Was this woman trying to shock them to death?
Shui Yanyu was extremely embarrassed, and she buried her head into Ling Han’s back, not daring to look at anyone else.
Ling Han was naturally thick-skinned enough, and he said, “Leader Meng, what are you trying to say?”
“I battled for an entire day, and several of my good comrades died. I’m feeling extremely down right now, so I want to let myself loose!” There was an alluring look in Meng Wei’s eyes as she gazed at Ling Han, and she continued, “Don’t think that I’m casual about my partners. Although I won’t guard my chastity as if it’s pure jade, I’ll only make love with men that I truly think are worthy.”
‘Is this not casual?’
Shui Yanyu was already completely dumbfounded. This woman was… far too bold.
“Your expressions are so strange! Do you think that women get the short end of the stick when they f*ck men?” Meng Wei chuckled in scorn, and said, “It’s fine as long as I feel good! It’s not like I’ll get pregnant or anything, and we can both go our own ways after rooting. Neither of us will owe each other anything.”
This made some sense. However, in this world—where beautiful women were often treated as a commodity—people still held onto the traditional belief that men would definitely be better off when making love with women. Women would definitely get the short end of the stick.
Ling Han wouldn’t interfere with other’s habits as long as they didn’t affect him. “Leader Meng, I think it’ll be better if you seek your own comrades… to let yourself loose.”
“Tsk, rabbits don’t eat the grass by their burrows.” Meng Wei waved her hand, and said, “When I screw a man, we’ll only be together for a maximum of 10 days to half a month. We’ll never see each other again after that. So, how can I screw my own comrades? How will I leave them by my side after I screw them?”
Ling Han grimaced upon hearing this. This was the first time he had come across such a woman, and he was truly at a loss for words.
“Oi, want to see my wares?” Meng Wei asked. She undid her cloak and slipped out of it, revealing her beautiful and seductive naked body.
Large breasts, flat stomach, shapely bottom, and long and slender legs—this was truly a flawless and alluring body. However, there were many scars on her body, and it was clear that some had been left numerous years ago. They hadn’t disappeared over time.
These scars had formed due to the foreign martial intents that had remained in her wounds while they healed. Because of their existence, her wounds hadn’t been able to heal completely.
Ling Han was astonished that there were so many scars on the body of a stunning beauty such as Meng Wei. It was quite a startling scene.
Meng Wei proudly puffed her chest, and confidently said, “How is it? My figure is quite nice, isn’t it?”
Ling Han waved his hands, and said, “I’m sorry, but I don’t have a habit of getting together with my cooperation partners.”
He wasn’t faking seriousness. In fact, he was genuinely uninterested in having one-night stands.
Ling Han had never seen himself as someone who was loyal to only one partner, but he wouldn’t make love with someone just for the sake of short-term pleasure.
“Then I can only concede and take the next best option!” Meng Wei turned her gaze to Shui Yanyu, and said, “Girl, I’ll teach you how to make love with women! Believe me, my techniques are definitely no worse than your man’s. I guarantee that you’ll experience an incredible pleasure!”
‘F*ck! You’re even trying to steal my woman?!’
Ling Han was extremely ticked off, and he immediately walked over and grabbed Meng Wei by the neck.
“Oi, oi, oi, I only accept normal love-making. You’re being too rough, and I don’t like that… Ow!” Meng Wei shouted loudly as she was thrown out of the tent by Ling Han. She plopped to the ground on her rear.
“Hahaha! Leader, you were rejected, huh?”
“I said so, didn’t I? He has two breathtakingly beautiful wives, so how could he possibly have been seduced by our leader?”
“However, he rejected a threesome that was delivered to his door. It looks like Young Master Han’s standards are pretty high, huh?”
Meng Wei’s subordinates all roared with laughter. It was evident that they were all well aware of their leader’s bad habits.
>
“What do you guys mean? Are you trying to say that I’m not classy enough?” Meng Wei slipped back into her cloak and continued to speak without restraint.
Her subordinates all giggled in secret. They had gone through thick and thin with Meng Wei, so it could be said that they were like true brothers and sisters. Thus, they naturally didn’t fear her too much, nor did they overly respect her. However, they were all willing to die for her.
At least half of the scars on her body had been left during the times that she had saved them.
She continued to curse and vent her emotions. Her desire hadn’t been satisfied, so she was naturally very unhappy. After cursing for a while, she shouted, “I’ll deal with it myself!”
She then immediately returned to her own tent.
Shui Yanyu’s face flushed red, and she buried it in Ling Han’s lap, murmuring, “How can there be such people?”
Ling Han laughed loudly, and said, “Would you still say this if Meng Wei were a man?”
Shui Yanyu pondered for a moment before replying, “Although that would still seem a little too casual, I guess it wouldn’t be overly astonishing.”
Ling Han nodded, and said, “Indeed. Why is such behavior regarded as normal for men, yet women are criticized for doing the same thing?”
Shui Yanyu’s views naturally couldn’t be changed so quickly. She simply shook her head, and said, “Anyhow, I can’t accept such behavior!”
“Of course. You already have a flawless husband in me, so how can you seek out other men?” Ling Han smiled as he pulled her into his embrace and enjoyed her beauty and warmth.
“Pei!” This man really couldn’t say anything nice.
***
Morning arrived, and they continued toward the alchemist’s abode.
Although they had experienced that awkward situation last night, it didn’t seem like Meng Wei had taken it to heart. Sure enough, she was extremely thick-skinned. If this hadn’t been the case, she wouldn’t have run before an unfamiliar male, stripped naked, and asked to make love anyway.
Meng Wei wasn’t embarrassed, yet Shui Yanyu’s face flushed red every time she saw her. She was teased incessantly by that open and casual woman.
They ventured further and further from the Yellow Spring. After walking for several more days, a small manor appeared before them.
“Be careful!” Meng Wei warned. “We came across a pack of Demonic Beasts the last time we came here, and we were forced to abandon our armor and retreat. In the end, we only managed to explore a very small area.”
Ling Han was slightly puzzled, and asked, “How do you know there are pills in here if you weren’t able to explore its depths last time?”
Chapter 1177 - Battling a Streak of Tigers
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
“Hehe!” A smug grin appeared on Meng Wei’s face, and she said, “I’ve practiced a peculiar cultivation technique, and it allows me to release a wisp of my divine sense. This divine sense can roam freely within a certain range, and it’s impossible for normal restrictions to stop it!”
Ling Han couldn’t help but take another glance at her. This cultivation technique seemed fairly useful. One could explore an unknown area without putting themself in any danger.
“Can you check out the current situation then?” he asked.
Meng Wei nodded and then closed her eyes. It was as if she had become a stone statue.
‘Hmm?’
Ling Han could sense that something had exited Meng Wei’s body. It was invisible and shapeless, so one naturally couldn’t see or touch it. It could only be detected with one’s divine sense. However, one had to be extremely close if they wanted to detect it. If they were slightly further, they wouldn’t be able to detect anything.
After a long while, Meng Wei suddenly opened her eyes, and said, “Just as I expected. Those Demonic Beasts are still inside. I wounded the eyes of one of them, and I can still remember that battle extremely vividly.”
“What cultivation level are they at?” Ling Han asked.
“Most of them are at the consummate level of the Mountain River Tier, and only a few of them are still at the high extreme,” Meng Wei replied. She then patted Ling Han’s shoulder, and said, “In the past, our only option would have been to run. However, now that you’re here… Go! Exterminate those Demonic Beasts!”
Ling Han shook his head, and said, “Are you treating me as your underling?”
He would naturally be unafraid if the Demonic Beasts were only at the consummate level of the Mountain River Tier. However, he was afraid that there would be some at the Sun Moon Tier. If that were the case, his only option would be to flee.
However, there was potentially the inheritance of an alchemist here, so it was worth taking the risk.
Peng!
He launched a kick and sent the gate of the manor flying. Then, he immediately barged in.
He arrived in a garden, though this garden was already abandoned and derelict. Three Demonic Beasts were lying on the ground and resting. They looked like tigers, yet they all had a silver horn on their foreheads.
The three Demonic Beasts crawled up upon hearing the commotion.
“Another person has come!”
“Haha, we finally have something to eat!”
“The life essence of cultivators is extremely nutritious. Perhaps our cultivation level will go up if we eat a human.”
“That’s impossible! Unless… you eat a Sun Moon Tier human! However, they’ll be good for a snack. I haven’t eaten human flesh for so long. Oh, how I yearn for some!”
The three Demonic Beasts proceeded to chatter with each other. They had reached the Immortal level, so they could naturally communicate in human tongue. In fact, they could even shapeshift into human form if they wanted to.
Ling Han smiled faintly, and said, “I also yearn for some Demonic Beast meat. I haven’t tasted it in ages.”
“What a cocky human!”
“Kill him!”
The three Demonic Beasts roared loudly as they charged toward Ling Han.
These were three Demonic Beasts which were all at the consummate level of the Mountain River Tier, and their battle prowess was relatively astonishing. Moreover, Demonic Beasts had an inherent advantage over human cultivators, and it was normal for them to possess a battle prowess that was one star above their cultivation level.
Xiu, xiu, xiu!
The three Demonic Beasts lunged over, and it was as if their large figures were blotting out heaven and earth.
Ling Han shook his head and casually extended a finger.
Pa, pa, pa!
Three streaks of sword light burst out, slicing the Demonic Beasts into two. They couldn’t be more dead.
Meng Wei and her group of mercenaries were already mentally prepared for this as they had seen Ling Han insta-kill the 24 villains who were at the consummate level before. However, they were still shocked upon seeing him dismember the three powerful Demonic Beasts with a single finger.
‘Heavens! Mountain River Tier cultivators can actually be this powerful!
‘As expected of a disciple from the Majestic Heaven Sect!’
Ling Han walked over and casually placed the corpses of the three Demonic Beasts into his Black Tower. The bodies of high-grade Demonic Beasts were full of treasures, and their Spiritual Meat was more so extremely nutritious. In fact, they were tremendously beneficial to cultivators who practiced Body Arts.
“Roar!”
More Demonic Beasts surged out from the manor, and upon discovering the pools of blood on the ground and realizing that their companions were missing, they all became wild with rage.
A horned tiger stepped forward, and said, “Human, where are our companions?”
“They wanted to eat me, yet they ended up being slaughtered by me,” Ling Han said with a chuckle.
The Demonic Beasts instantly descended into chaotic rage. They all wanted to lunge over and bite Ling Han to d
eath.
However, the horned tiger gave a low roar and stopped the other Demonic Beasts from charging over. It then turned to Ling Han, and said, “Human, there’s no animosity between us, so why did you come to our territory and kill our companions?”
Ling Han smiled, and said, “Even I feel a little embarrassed that you’re asking this question! This is human territory, so why are you Demonic Beasts occupying it? Even if we’re to hold an interrogation, I should be the one doing the interrogation! So, why on earth are you Demonic Beasts here?”
The horned tiger was at a loss for words. He had only asked that question to put mental pressure on Ling Han. Some humans were mentally weak, and their morale would drop when were questioned in such a manner.
In any case, he didn’t want to battle against these humans anyway. Their three companions had been disposed of so quickly, so it was clear that this human was extraordinarily powerful. It was best that they didn’t battle.
After reaching their cultivation level, these Demonic Beasts were already very similar to humans. They all strived for the dao of heaven and earth.
“Big Brother, why are you still speaking so much nonsense with him?” another horned tiger asked in disdain. “There are so many of us tigers, so do we really need to be afraid of a mere few humans?”
This mystery realm had already opened several times before this, and they had also eaten numerous humans. In their minds, human cultivators were the embodiment of weakness. Thus, they naturally wouldn’t respect or fear humans.
The leading horned tiger appeared especially hesitant. On the one hand, he didn’t dare to underestimate Ling Han and the others. On the other hand, however, his experiences and mindset led him to believe that it was impossible for humans to become overly powerful. His conflicting thoughts made him extremely indecisive.
“Die!” The horned tiger was still mulling over whether to attack or not, yet Meng Wei had already drawn her saber and charged toward them.
“Leader!” Her subordinates hurriedly followed her charge. If she were to become trapped among the horned tigers, she would definitely be ripped to shreds, even if she was at the consummate level of the Mountain River Tier.
