Chapter 2288: Chapter 758: Fairy Tears! (2)
Many forces are aware that the Goddess Palace has an Honorary Elder named “Xuanmu Taoist.”
Not only is he a Third-rank Talisman Master, but he also possesses a Fourth Rank Puppet.
Under such circumstances, numerous forces would surely extend invitations to him, aiming to undermine the Goddess Palace.
If news of the Puppet Battle Array, nine Third Rank Puppets, and the Quasi-Fourth Rank Spirit Pet spreads, Shen Yiren even suspects that some forces might offer the opportunity of a Nascent Soul as temptation.
“Second Sister, Xuanmu Elder’s Spirit Pet ate the ghost pet of the Six Paths Demon Consort; surely this draws the attention of the Six Paths Palace. Wouldn’t it be dangerous if he goes out?”
Shen Yiren looked at her sister, whose hair was styled elegantly, her appearance radiant and stunning, and posed the question.
“Such matters are hard to say.”
Shen Baishuang reclined on the jade couch, her figure wrapped in luxurious red robes, enticingly seductive, especially the alluring curves of her plump legs that were partially obscured by the hem of her skirt.
“However, for Xuanmu Elder, a Third Rank Divination Master, to suddenly choose to go out, it’s likely that he senses an opportunity related to the Nascent Soul.”
“Concerning such opportunities, even we cannot advise too much.”
Shen Baishuang sighed.
The chance to obtain a Nascent Soul is a critical affair for any cultivator, and there’s no reason for their Goddess Palace to inquire too much.
“Mm.” Shen Yiren nodded softly, understanding this logic.
Seeing her younger sister’s unusual concern for Xuanmu Taoist, Shen Baishuang’s guilt was further eased.
After all, if her sister were to reject, despise, or show no interest toward Xuanmu Elder, she would not have convinced herself to partake in such actions.
Their sisterly relationship was rather ordinary, not close, yet they were born sisters, merely differing in personality and ideology.
“Xuanmu Elder carries great fortune, having progressed from a Clan Cultivator to where he stands today, calling him the Child of Destiny is not an exaggeration.”
“His appearance, speech, and demeanor are all quite excellent; he won’t be a grievance to my sister.”
“Moreover, with this matter, it equates to him being affiliated with the Goddess Palace, and he wouldn’t possibly mistreat my sister.”
Looking at her sister’s elegant and refined face, Shen Baishuang continuously lessened her feelings of guilt.
….
“Elder Xuanmu.”
The steward of Bailu Palace saw Lu Changsheng, handsome and scholarly in his green robe, promptly greeted him with respect, inviting him into the hall.
The vast palace was exquisitely luxurious, beautifully adorned, with the floor covered with a delicate carpet akin to a red sunset.
It was evident that this Second Palace Master’s preference leaned towards red and the hues of sunset.
“Elder Xuanmu, you’ve arrived.”
Inside the palace, Shen Baishuang, who had been conversing with her sister, Shen Yiren, saw Lu Changsheng arrive as agreed, her exquisite and stunningly beautiful face blooming with a gentle smile, like a peony in spring, departing from her usual aloofness.
“Daoist Xuanmu.”
Beside her, Shen Yiren also softly called out to Lu Changsheng.
Though not as captivatingly alluring and voluptuous as her Second Sister Shen Baishuang, she possessed a unique elegance, tranquility, and peace.
Especially when smiling gently, her cheeks bore two subtle dimples, reminiscent of a youthful and radiant maiden, devoid of any undue seduction.
“Greetings to Second Palace Master and Third Palace Master.”
Lu Changsheng looked at the approaching sisters, bowing respectfully.
Although he had met them multiple times,
seeing the sisters standing together like twin flowers, Lu Changsheng’s eyes could not help but reveal a tinge of amazement.
After all, such visual splendor was not merely an addition but a multiplication of beauty.
Thinking of this, Lu Changsheng realized he had never seen the impressive sight of all three Palace Masters together.
“Elder Xuanmu, there’s no need for formality, this is merely a private banquet.”
Shen Baishuang smiled gracefully, elegantly gesturing for Lu Changsheng to enter the dining area, which was already laden with sumptuous delicacies.
As a Spirit Chef, having tasted many flavors, Lu Changsheng instantly recognized the exquisite value of the dishes, made from the meat of Third Rank Demon Kings and cooked with upper class Spiritual Medicine.
Once Lu Changsheng and Shen Yiren were seated, Shen Baishuang sat nearby, raising her elegant hand to pour wine for the two.
The poured wine was unusual, its red liquid exuding a rich fragrance that filled the hall as soon as it emerged.
“Elder Xuanmu, this wine is called [Red Flame Wine], brewed from a Third Rank Demon Pill and Nine Heavens Red Essence Qi. The first drink greatly enhances mana, aiding in overcoming bottlenecks and stabilizing one’s Cultivation Realm.”
Shen Baishuang said with a smile.
Fairy Tears have an aphrodisiac effect.
To prevent Lu Changsheng and her sister Shen Yiren from immediately becoming alert and noticing something amiss, Shen Baishuang intentionally selected this wine and poured Fairy Tears into it.
This way, even if Lu Changsheng and her sister sense something unusual, they would assume it’s the effect of the Red Flame Wine.
By the time they realize the aphrodisiac effect isn’t due to the wine, it would be too late.
“Oh?”
Lu Changsheng watched the rosy reflection in his glass, resembling burning flames, and remarked with a smile: “If that’s the case, I must savor it well.”
He took a gentle sip.
A wave of intense heat spread across his tongue, like scorching flames, instantly compelling him to salivate.
Following that, the fiery wine flowed into his stomach like a small flame, transforming into streams of heat that filled his limbs.
But then, Lu Changsheng frowned slightly.
As a Fourth-rank Body Cultivator, even if his Fourth Rank Qi-Blood Physique was sealed, he was still finely attuned to his physical body.
As the wine digested within him, he swiftly felt a slight heat arise in his abdomen.
