SCP Gacha System In A Cultivation World

Inside the Supreme Court, which was the step above the Inner Court, there was a massive structure that was recently built. Droves of disciples from the Outer Court to elders to mere servants could be seen walking to the building. If there was one thing they generally had in common, it would be that they had varying degrees of injuries somewhere present. Among those traveling to the building, there was a familiar pair. 

“How annoying.” Tang Wuying grimaced as he held a palm to his stomach. 

“At least the line is fairly quick.” Gong Jun had a faint smile on his face. 

“How is it being a prince-in-law?” Tang asked. 

“Better than you’d think. It turns out all I have to do is be handsome, talented, and have basic social skills.” Jun answered. 

“Aren’t you lucky?” Tang Wuying scoffed. “A pregnant wife with a dragon phoenix pair, a nice relationship with your in-laws, and a stable cultivation.” 

“Don’t throw your negative energy at me. I haven’t done anything.” Jun held his hands up. 

“Your perfect little life is an eyesore to me.” Tang grumbled. 

“It’s not my fault Xiao Hong, the love of your life, deserted the sect, it’s not my fault you got injured practicing your cultivation technique without properly setting your foundation, and it’s not my fault you’ve been assigned to Punishment Hall that constantly sends you out on dangerous tasks every few days.” Gong Jun highlighted all of Tang’s miseries in one neat package. 

“You want to die, huh?” Tang glared. 

“I don’t think you could kill me with your dantian injured.” Jun added a cherry on top. 

“...” Tang Wuying took a deep breath, faced forward, and ignored Jun. 

“Don’t be like this, Little Tang. I’m sorry for teasing you.” Jun tried to apologize. 

“...” They finally made it inside with Tang still refusing to speak to Jun. 

The inside of the building seemed far bigger than what it appeared on the outside. Most of the disciples and elders didn’t understand the intricacies of how it worked, and they kept it that way. Trying to comprehend the mysteries of how this hospital was structured was a hopeless venture that currently, no one held any interest in solving or understanding. It was a hospital that could fit as many people were in the sect and that was all that mattered. 

Jun silently admired all the pretty female assistants even if some of them were above the age of the women he usually liked to admire. Apparently, most of them were the wives of the Blind Savior. Ever since his disciples learned all that they could learn from him and ventured out into the world to do their own things, he started teaching his wives how to heal others to spend more time with them. They all settled down inside the sect at his own hospital. 

“Hmm? Prince Jun? Are you here for more medicine for Princess Lan?” Lei Zhi asked. 

“Ah, no. This time I'm just visiting with my partner.” Gong Jun smiled. 

“Ah, yes. Nice to meet you again, Wuying. How have things been since then?” Lei Zhi was interested to hear his experiences. 

Tang Wuying was one of the youths that Lei Zhi believed was irredeemable. Similar to Hu Tao in terms of stubbornness but nowhere near incorrigible. It was quite laughable now that Lei Zhi thought about it. When Hu Tao heard about the rules for his Clinic of Peace, he just decided to be difficult about it. Not that Lei Zhi expected anything less from the young man. If he needed healing, he’d force other famous doctors to take a look at him, avoid getting injured to the point where he needs a doctor, or use miraculous pills from Jing after accomplishing difficult tasks for the sect. 

Even now, he still refused to do good deeds just on the account of hating to be forced to do it. Tang Wuying on the other hand... He was much more agreeable than Hu Tao. While the boy might grumble or say some rude things, in the end, he would still accomplish the good deeds that Lei Zhi set for him. Prince Jun was no problem at all since he was a prince. It would only be beneficial for him to do good deeds as long as others knew about it. Lei Zhi didn’t have a problem with people doing good deeds for the sake of fame. 

“It was annoying. Who knew orphanages had so many annoying problems? Why would anyone want to kidnap orphans in the first place? There are so many willing children of both mortal and cultivator families that would sign up to join any group as long as they learned cultivation techniques.” Tang sighed as Lei Zhi began tapping on his body with his index finger. 

“Cultivators are used to ignoring the concept of consent along with other matters that usually take social common sense.” Lei Zhi infused healing intent within his treatment, recovering Tang’s body back to its peak. 

“Consent?” The duo asked. 

“Oh dear?” Lei Zhi laughed. “If you were courting a woman and things were going well enough that it looked like you were about to have sex. What if she suddenly said no before things could get to that point? And when I say, she said no. I mean she absolutely does not want to cross the line with you. Would you respect her wishes or go ahead and lose yourself to your human desires?” Lei Zhi carefully looked in the direction of the two young men. 

“...” Neither chose to respond as they put on a thoughtful expression. 

Lei Zhi chuckled, it seems they did learn something after all these years. Even if he knew what their answer was, it was good that he at least got them thinking. “By respecting her choice to say no, that is understanding consent. By ignoring her wishes, that is not understanding consent.”  

“Did all your wives consent to being in a multiple marriage with you?” Gong Jun asked. 

“Of course. Some weren’t happy about having to share but I was always very upfront and honest with them. All of them knew I was already married and if they were interested in me, they too would need to accept that I wasn’t a single package.” Lei Zhi explained. 

“I’ve been thinking about getting some concubines eventually, but isn’t it difficult to juggle so many women?” Jun was curious. 

“Ah, you’re not thinking about it in the right way, Prince Jun. It’s not about juggling but setting an appropriate time schedule with them. Women need attention and care more than any material thing one could purchase. As long as you can set up a working schedule that makes everyone happy, it’ll help you go a long way in keeping a happy relationship.” 

“Thanks. Now what deeds to I need to do now?” Tang asked as Lei Zhi finished his treatment. 

“Thank you for the advice... I might need to put off getting a concubine anytime soon if I need to rework my entire plans around them.” Jun decided. 

“I’d advise getting a time array and some illusion formations as well if you do decide to. You could spend years with someone in only a matter of minutes.” Lei Zhi informed. 

“Sign here, Wuying.” Lei Zhi pulled out his Contract Scroll. 

As Tang Wuying signed the contract with his blood, he read what he needed to do to payback Lei Zhi for the treatment. He groaned as he read the words. Tang Wuying had to aid those with struggling talent or circumstances and help them accomplish something of themselves. It turns out, fixing an injury to one’s dantian was certainly not cheap. 

“Babysitting, how lucky.” Jun grinned. 

“Shut it. Farewell Doctor.” Tang Wuying turned to leave and get this stupid deed over with already. 

“Farewell, Wuying. Farewell, Prince Jun.” Lei Zhi happily waved goodbye to the two young men. 

“Haha! You sword dogs dare mess with us Golden Serpent Sect disciples?!” Lin Shu waved her little fist. 

“You wicked degenerate vile villains! How dare you ambush us inside the secret realm?! Do you not fear retaliation when elders from our sect hear of this!?” A Nine Swords Sect disciple shouted in outrage. 

“How are they even going to know it was us? Anything could happen inside a secret realm.” He Wenqing chuckled. “It’s not like they got eyes and ears inside the secret realm. After all, only disciples at the Core Stage and below can enter.” 

“If you let us go now, we swear to not bring this matter up to our elders back at the sect.”  

“...” Xiucai appeared from the shadows and struck the disciple in the back of the neck. 

He dropped like a bundle of sticks and that was the signal to attack for Lin and He. They rushed forward and effortlessly dropped the Nine Swords Sect disciples with their mastery over the human body. God’s Fingers is the ultimate martial art for healing and close combat. All it takes is one touch for the odds of victory to lean in the favor of the wielder. 

“I wish there was a way to erase memories with our martial arts.” Lin Shu complained as she looked at the still living bodies of their defeated foes. 

“There is.” He Wenqing told her as he robbed the Nine Swords Sect disciples’ belongings. 

“What? Really!?” Lin Shu looked at him in disbelief. 

“...” Xiucai nodded but the technique was far too difficult even for himself. 

“You remember how Master told us to not mess with brains unless he’s with us?” He Wenqing reminded her. 

“Oooh.” Lin Shu did remember something like that. Master even said he would expel them from being his student if he caught them messing with brains without his guidance. 

“Yep. Now let’s go find those Blossoming Water Palace disciples Wen was talking about. He said they found something that would be beneficial to our cultivation.” He spoke after looking at a glowing talisman in his hand.
