Chapter 335: Chapter 169: Try Stealing a Man If You Dare
After returning to the Taixu Hall, Chu Xuan appeared calm, just like when he first entered this sect.
He cupped his hands towards Chen Yunqi, who was seated at the top, and said, "Thank you, Sect Leader. My purpose has been fulfilled, I will take my leave now."
Chen Yunqi, however, wasn’t about to let Chu Xuan off so easily. She stared into his eyes and said, "Young Master Chu, you seem so ’deeply devoted,’ care to explain?"
Chu Xuan calmly replied, "You’ve already guessed it all, why bother asking me again?"
Chen Yunqi’s expression was somewhat complicated. She bit her fingernail and said, "But it’s hard for me to believe that person should be dead, scattered soul type, theoretically wouldn’t even have a reincarnated body."
"What is the relationship between you and him, exactly?"
Chu Xuan did not answer, "Knowing too much won’t do you any good. In consideration of your master’s sake, if the Hehuan Sect ever faces a life-and-death crisis, I won’t stand by and do nothing."
"But I advise you to do more good deeds, and not engage in abducting mortals and cultivators anymore, otherwise the disaster you bring upon yourselves will be your own doing."
Chen Yunqi blinked, playing innocent, "Can I abduct bad people? Wouldn’t that count as upholding justice?"
Chu Xuan was at a loss for words, "As long as you know in your heart what you’re up to."
Chen Yunqi sighed and still used that charming voice, "Even if my Hehuan Sect wants to change for the better, outside cultivators harbor prejudices against our sect, I’m afraid it would be a thankless task."
Chu Xuan nodded, "I know, the prejudice in people’s hearts is like a mountain, not so easily moved, but as long as you act uprightly, at least I will stand by your side.
"Moreover, given time, it’s not impossible for the Hehuan Sect to become one of the three major righteous sects."
Chen Yunqi chuckled, "Young Master Chu, you really know how to make a girl laugh."
"Alright, let’s talk about something else."
"Young Master, why don’t you stay at our Hehuan Sect? Our sect can fully assist you to return to your peak." As she spoke, ambition gleamed in Chen Yunqi’s eyes.
Knowing that Chu Xuan might be the reincarnation of the Celestial Evil Demon Venerable, the previous anomalies on him became insignificant.
Such a person who had reigned for a generation, if reincarnated and likely carrying memories of his past life, if they could firmly bind him to their ship, why worry about not achieving great things? Why worry about the sect not thriving?
As for the not-so-good reputation of Celestial Evil, coming from a demonic background, Chen Yunqi naturally didn’t mind; in this world, it has always been survival of the fittest, with power comes the freedom to do as one pleases.
Regarding his fondness for beauty, Chen Yunqi actually wished to engage in dual cultivation with him, yet this life he’s in the righteous path and somehow acts differently than his past life.
Is he worried about being controlled? Seems like it, but not just that...
Chu Xuan shook his head, "I refuse."
"Young Master Chu, aren’t you afraid I’ll spread the word about this?" Chen Yunqi pretended to be displeased.
"You’re not that foolish; doing so would bring you not a bit of benefit, instead depleting the ancestors’ lingering influences," Chu Xuan said.
Chen Yunqi realized she truly had no way to deal with this guy, only able to give him a resentful look.
Chu Xuan finally cupped his hands, turned around, and left without another word.
"Wait." Chen Yunqi called to stop him and clapped her hands.
Wearing a red dress, Xi Hongzhuang walked in from outside the hall, holding a storage bag in her hand.
Xi Hongzhuang had already learned from the Sect Leader about her blunt rejection by Chu Xuan, but unlike her master who acted like a ’wronged woman,’ she still gave him a sweet smile, far more mature in both character and demeanor.
"This is a small gift from our Sect Leader to Young Master Chu, we hope you will accept it."
Chu Xuan didn’t take it, only asked in confusion, "What’s inside?"
"Hehuan’s Enchanted Liquid, Enchanted Incense, and Enchanted Powder, all specialty products of our sect, each equipped with over a dozen portions. The Sect Leader said this would make it convenient for you to go and harm virtuous girls later."
Chu Xuan’s lips twitched, "What kind of person do you take me for?"
Chen Yunqi scoffed, "Stop pretending, that’s exactly who you are."
Chu Xuan’s face turned solemn, "I’m really not that kind of person."
"Oh? Would you dare swear that you’ve never used similar means against virtuous girls?"
Chu Xuan was about to say "why wouldn’t I dare," but before he could speak, he thought of Yun Ni Fairy Pei Shurou, remembering the awkward incident that occurred underground in the secret realm...
Chen Yunqi immediately seized the opportunity, "See, feeling guilty, aren’t you? Just accept it, Young Master Chu, let’s not push and pull between us."
Xi Hongzhuang also smiled and slipped the storage bag into Chu Xuan’s hands.
"Inside there’s also an Earth Tier low-grade magical treasure [Hehuan Bell], some specialty bedroom implements, along with dozens of sets of lingerie suitable for women, guaranteed to make your play enjoyable and satisfactory."
Chu Xuan felt as if he was scalded and immediately let go, but Xi Hongzhuang swiftly stuffed it into his arms, diverting the topic, "Before you leave, can you hug this young lady?"
Chu Xuan instinctively glanced at her ample, astonishingly sized chest and shook his head.
Xi Hongzhuang then embraced him of her own accord, with a look of reluctance, finally, as Chu Xuan was about to resist, she cheerfully took his hand.
"Let’s go, Young Master Chu, I’ll escort you out."
After such a series of moves, Chu Xuan indeed didn’t bring up the matter of the storage bag again.
Chen Yunqi watched with gritted teeth, this fellow likes them big, does he?! I’m not small either.
After watching Chu Xuan’s back disappear, she suddenly thought of something: does Primordial Monarch Taixu know the true identity of Chu Xuan?
...
With Xi Hongzhuang’s cordial company, Chu Xuan walked toward the mountain gate step by step, contemplating throwing away the storage bag once outside; being a gentleman, he could not carry such things around.
