Yuanzhou, Xuanshi Manor.
In the manor city, within a tall-gated, large courtyard.
Amidst a sea of bamboo, in a tranquil environment, a woman in a purple dress and a beauty in a yellow dress were sitting opposite each other; the woman in the purple dress was brewing tea.
Her delicate, snow-white hand poured carefully selected fine water into a spirit pot, then she snapped her fingers, and a flame appeared beneath the purple-golden pot.
When the water was heated but not yet fully boiling, she added some top-quality spiritual tea leaves to the pot.
As the tea and water melded, the second boil produced froth; small froths were tiny tea flowers, the larger froths indicated the essence of the tea.
At this moment, she scooped out the froth and placed it in a ready bowl, reserving it for later; as she continued to boil the tea, the tea and water blended further, churning into waves, and reaching the third boil.
The woman in the purple dress then poured the froth, reserved from the second boil, into the tea, and since there were only two of them, she didn’t add much.
After the tea was ready, the woman in the purple dress poured the tea into two cups evenly, symbolizing the sharing of both fortunes and hardships.
“Please,” the woman in the purple dress gestured.
The beauty in the yellow dress nodded slightly, her long pale hands taking the cup and instantly, a refreshing fragrance wafted toward her, pleasant and delightful. She gently took a sip.
She couldn’t help but hold her breath, waiting until the tea slid down her throat, then she slightly pursed her small cherry lips and exhaled slowly through her nose, savoring the origin of the tea’s fragrance.
“Excellent tea,” the beauty in the yellow dress appraised.
She had already smelled the aromatic tea while it was brewing, and after drinking it, she felt the aroma was full-bodied, dispersing through her mouth and throat.
The woman in the purple dress put down her cup, her charming face breaking into a smile, “I must say, the Human Clan has a way of enjoyment that we from the Demon Clan simply cannot compare to.”
“Take this tea, for instance; it’s a form of high art that we from the Demon Clan do not understand. We’re far behind the Human Clan.”
The beauty in the yellow dress nodded. Since arriving in the Daqian Empire, they were almost dazzled by its splendid world, with all the wonderful things the Human Clan had to offer leaving them wanting more.
In the capital city of the Daqian Empire, both women were adept at enjoying life. After they escaped to Yuanzhou and found some stability, they reverted back to their real selves.
They preferred to stay in a wealthy and bustling manor city over living meagerly in the towns and villages—truly, it is easier to go from frugality to extravagance than from extravagance to frugality.
“Shall we move on?” the woman in the purple dress suddenly asked.
The beauty in the yellow dress fell silent for a moment, then said, “It depends on the situation. If there’s no trouble, we’ll stay in Xuanshi City.”
In a moment of anger, she had caused trouble in the capital city of Daqian, drawing the attention of the Jingye Office. Now they were wanted all over.
However, this wasn’t challenging for the two women; they were highly skilled in cultivation and were experts in the art of disguise, having already altered their appearances.
Capital City of Da Qian.
In the finely decorated boudoir of a Prime Minister’s manor.
“Those two little foxes, I wonder if they’ve escaped.”
She put down her embroidery and quietly murmured to herself, recalling a scene she had chanced upon earlier.
Bearing in mind that the two women were inherently good and that they were somewhat connected to her by race, the peerless beauty had secretly assisted them.
“I never thought I’d see the day when I would enjoy helping others,” she scoffed at herself.
In her past life, with her temperament, she wouldn’t have bothered with such trifles, and she was known to have a bad temper.
Yet, after reincarnation, she came to understand many things and her personality gradually changed. She lived a peaceful life in the Prime Minister’s manor, and even though she was highly skilled in cultivation, she acted like a delicate woman without any skills.
“The time is near, just a little longer, and my planning will come to fruition,” the peerless beauty mused to herself. She had been quietly laying out many schemes lately.
Prince Wu’an of the Daqian Empire coveted her treasure, but little did he know, she too was plotting to seize the empire’s treasures.
If played correctly, this move could bring her immense benefits, laying the foundation for her next step, and in this life, she might even have a chance to touch that realm.
The peerless beauty looked towards the direction of the Imperial Astronomer and sneered coldly.
She had been keenly aware of the Prophet of the Imperial Astronomer surveilling her previously, and she knew that the old thing harbored suspicions about her, though he was uncertain and lacked evidence.
“In the face of absolute power, all schemes and tricks are utterly useless,” said the peerless beauty with a light chuckle.
“Yue’er, are you there? I have something I’d like to talk to you about,” a voice sounded from outside the boudoir.
The peerless beauty’s eyebrows slightly furrowed; the visitor was her father of this lifetime, the current Prime Minister.
After a moment, the peerless beauty responded, “Hmm.”
The Prime Minister always held great respect for his daughter, but it seemed he truly had important matters this time…
Qingyun Manor, by Erhai Lake.
Lu Tianxiang was admiring her beauty in the mirror.
Because her main cultivation technique required the spreading of faith rather than rigorous cultivation practices, she was able to enhance her strength without the arduous task, a job taken care of by her subordinates.
Recruiting others was also hard work, and again, that was something her subordinates would handle; Lu Tianxiang would never bother herself with such matters.
Looking at herself in the mirror, Lu Tianxiang smiled, feeling she truly was a little temptress.
Her figure was stunningly gorgeous, extremely sultry, and quite mature; her curvaceous and graceful lines combined with a slender waist formed the perfect hot and sexy S-curve.
Her facial features were exquisitely crafted, and from her tender and smooth jade-like feet to her head, there wasn’t a single flaw in her beauty.
After admiring herself for a while, Lu Tianxiang put on a noble and elegant purple fairy dress, instantly covering up the tantalizing spring sights.
Having cultivated that technique, her already remarkable aura became even more extraordinary and sanctified. Now, dressed in these clothes, she appeared even more lofty and unreachable.
A fiery figure, breathtakingly beautiful features, and a holy demeanor—all combined perfectly in her, creating a stunningly beautiful woman, a temptress without equal.
After finishing, Lu Tianxiang’s figure disappeared and reappeared in the main hall of the Diancang Sect.
Looking at the Diancang Master bowing his head below, Lu Tianxiang’s indifferent voice resonated in the hall, “How is the situation?”
The Diancang Master, invigorated, replied respectfully, “Reporting to the Sect
Hierarch, all intelligence has been verified.”
“Qiu Xuan was badly injured on his way back from Dingyuan Manor to Fengyang Manor, and later died from his wounds. He had a wife and a daughter; his wife followed him in death, but his daughter is still alive.”
“Before Qiu Xuan died, he had his First Disciple go to Fengyang Manor to summon his good friend Han Li. The two met, and soon after, Qiu Xuan passed away.”
“Han Li took care of the funerals for Qiu Xuan and his wife, and then he took Qiu Yueyao back to Fengyang Manor.”
Lu Tianxiang felt relieved; it seemed that the Rebirth Pill formula was most likely in the hands of Han Li or Qiu Xuan’s daughter, Qiu Yueyao.
“What about the intelligence on Han Li?” Lu Tianxiang looked at the Diancang Master—if he dared to say he hadn’t found out, she was ready to slap him.
“Han Li, early Gangyuan Realm, once resided in Lingjun City of Fengyang
Manor and is known for taking concubines, often referred to as the ‘Concubine
Collecting Ancestor.’ He and Qiu Xuan were disciples from Tianxuan
Mountain.”
“Han Li is extremely cautious and usually stays within Lingjun City, not leaving often, probably due to Leizhou’s instability. Recently, he began relocating the Han Family to Yuanzhou, and now they have reached the border of Zhending
Manor and are about to enter Qingzhou territory.”
“Very well, you’ve done a good job with this,” said Lu Tianxiang.
Finally, a smile appeared on Lu Tianxiang’s face, making the dimly lit room seem brighter and the lights sparkle even more brilliantly.
“You go and bring Han Li back. I want to see him. Never mind, I will personally go to invite him,” said Lu Tianxiang, and with that, her figure vanished.
As a late-stage God Refining Realm cultivator, the Diancang Master found it very easy to catch an early-stage Gang Yuan cultivator, but for the sake of caution, Lu Tianxiang decided to take action herself.
She worried that the Diancang Master might make too much of a fuss, attracting the attention of Tianxuan Mountain or the Daqian Empire, which she did not want to deal with just yet. With her first level of the Myriad Phenomena Realm, she could easily capture an early Gang Yuan Realm cultivator without making a sound..
