Chapter 699: Love of Beauties (I)

Chen Wentian hugged Li Yuechan and said, “Yuechan, Ziyun is right. You can’t play a man’s heart so cruelly. I was about to die of jealousy on the boat. I really thought about giving that guy a good kick in the ass. Then he can consider his mistakes as he falls down a deep gorge.”

Li Yuechan smiled slightly but moved to untangle herself from him, “Master, let’s not play around here. We are in the belly of the enemy. They want to swallow us whole so we need to be alert.”

Chen Wentian sighed and nodded. He wanted to fool around with his disciples for a little while but he forgot that Li Yuechan was rather conservative in both her actions and demeanor. She understood that he was in his shadow fox body and did not want to get too intimate in such a situation.

Such a matter couldn’t be forced. Some of his disciples didn’t seem to care too much like Lin Qingcheng, Zhou Ziyun, and Bei Yingluo. They were open-minded and willing to try out new things. Li Yuechan was similar to Wu Qianyu in her shyness. In fact, the other ice sisters were similar in this regard.

The fact that the five sisters were willing to share the same bed with him was already a blessing. It was probably their deep bond that allowed them to see past their discomfort. But it would be a challenge asking Li Yuechan to get intimate with him in the presence of Zhou Ziyun, let alone the fact that he wasn’t it wasn’t his true body.

Chen Wentian stood up, “You are right, we are indeed in a tricky situation. The eagle lord thinks we have fallen into his trap. But things so far have progressed along our estimates. The key is what we do from this point on and how we react to provocations. They will try some tricks on me. They will also try some tricks on you two. Remember our goal, to make sure that both Qu Shen and He Zicheng are paying attention solely to us and not anything that would be happening in the Glittering Forest.”

“Yes, master. We will act accordingly.” The two of them replied in unison.

Immortal Crimson Eagle Qu Shen stood in the middle of the birdhouse. Amidst the chirping of hundreds of songbirds, he was in a very good mood. Such a fat fish had fallen in his bowl, he was going to take his time to savor it.

“Nan Lang, Gu Lan, what do you two think?” He asked.

Before knelt two men, Immortal Wolf Hunter Nan Lang and Immortal Sky Monkey Gu Lan, the two immortal subordinates of the eagle lord. Both men were around equal height but they couldn’t be any more different Nan Lang was thick and muscular while Gu Lan was thin as a twig. One still looked like a man in his prime while the other was like an old ghost with a head of wild white hair.

“Eagle lord,” Gu Lan said, “I think this Chen Wentian is dangerous. We shouldn’t keep him in the city. Nobody knows how the Divine Blazing Mountain and Glacier Palace both fell and landed in his hands. Nobody knows how he escaped the demonic trap at the Convocation of Swords when even someone like Peng Yuefeng of the Tower of Swords lost his life. We should tread carefully!”

“Old Gu, you’re going senile! How can you be so scared of a single Spirit Lord?” Nan Lang said loudly. “Eagle lord, in my opinion, the benefits far outweigh any dangers. Whether it was by schemes or dumb luck, that surnamed Chen now controls the remnants of three immortal sects. His twelfth disciple is in fact Peng Lingxi, who used to be known as Peng Xiling, the top disciple of the Tower of Swords.”

“Oh? So that rumor was true?” Qu Shen asked with great interest.

“Yes! Qu Jing told me after the boat ride here. He got that information from the disciple named Li Yuechan!”

“Haha, good.” Qu Shen said, “Jing’er has done well. I should reward him.”

Gu Lan shook his head and said, “Eagle lord… we should still tread carefully. This Chen has an ambiguous relationship with that old hag lotus. She is a tricky woman to deal with. He also has a relationship with the Virtuous Order from the Martial Brilliance Continent. A casual sneeze from them can cause disastrous storms here in the Eastern Sanmu Subcontinent!”

Qu Shen waved his hand impatiently, “I know. I know. But this fat mouse has crawled into this one’s claws. You can’t ask me not to eat? And I am going to simply kill him. I want him to be my subordinate. That is my most generous bottom line. If he refuses, then he can’t blame me for being ruthless. I’m sure brother He Zicheng won’t blame me for getting rid of a thorn in his side.”

Gu Lan sighed, “In that case, Eagle lord, I have prepared some things to help convince this mouse of the right course of action…”

The skinny old fellow described what he had in mind for Chen Wentian. It involved his love of beauties. The eagle faction controlled half of Beast God City and half of Beast God Sanctum so they had no shortage of talented and beautiful female cultivators. Some were wild and passionate like tigers. Others were meek and tender like rabbits. There were also a thousand varieties in between, enough to suit any man’s tastes.

It wasn’t just enough to throw beauties at Chen Wentian. Gu Lan’s plan also involved aphrodisiacs in the food and wine to entice Chen Wentian. These would have performance-enhancing effects to make him last all night and all day.

The women would also be prepared properly. Only those at their most fertile time of the month would be sent into his bed. They would also take medicine to improve their chances of conceiving. After all, what better way to convince a person to stay than the surprise fortune of a child on the way?

“Hahaha!” Qu Shen squawked with laughter, “Old Gu, you… you are good! Hahaha!”

Gu Lan smiled lightly.

“What about his disciples then?” Nan Lang asked, “Qu Jing seemed pretty smitten with that Li Yuechan but if we mess with his disciples, he will be even less willing to join us.”

Gu Lan replied, “I have prepared some contingencies for the two disciples as well but the main focus is Chen Wentian. I do not want to mess with them unnecessarily lest we anger him. Since they are already here, we naturally won’t let them leave. Other than that, their mere presence is an unspoken threat against him. As for Qu Jing, I will let the younger generation handle their own affairs.”

“Let’s do it like you said for now. Have you prepared the women for tonight?” Qu Shen said.

“Yes, eagle lord!”

“Good! I look forward to the banquet!”
