Chapter 484 - Hu Meiren’s Seduction, Why Did He Deserve To Be Excellent
It was not simple for a cultivator to discover their path of Dao.
After all, the discovery of a cultivator’s Dao could mark a conclusion in their cultivation journey. Without knowing what path was most suitable for them to embark on, a cultivator would often suffer from a lifetime of stagnation.
The Boundary Emperors had spent ages experimenting and guessing before they eventually discovered the paths that were meant for them.
However, Chu Kuangren seemed to have discovered it on a whim. Furthermore, the path seemed to resonate deeply with him, with no signs of repudiation. It seemed like a path that was destined for Chu Kuangren.
“Congratulations, Brother Chu.”
“Brother Chu, now that you’ve discovered your own path, what’s left is to seal your destiny. We look forward to the day you ascend into an Emperor.”
Chu Kuangren smiled brightly and said, “I’ve gained much from this sparring. I’m thankful for each of you.”
“Brother, you’re giving us too many credits.”
“Haha, Brother Chu, it all boils down to your own destiny.”
Chu Kuangren spoke with the Boundary Emperors for a while longer before he made his leave.
Before leaving, Chu Kuangren went to meet Boundary Emperor Tian Xue, who possessed the Deep Freeze Physique. “Boundary Emperor Tian Xue, you’re a master in Ice-based Dao, so I’m sure you have a decent amount of ice-based treasures in your possessions. I was wondering if you’d mind exchanging a couple of items with me?”
“Oh, Chu Kuangren, it seems like you’re eager to cultivate the Ice-based Dao.”
“Well, it’s not that. I’m just doing it for a friend.”
“I see.”
Boundary Emperor Tian Xue nodded and proceeded to take out several of her most valuable ice-based treasures without hesitation. Chu Kuangren proceeded to exchange several items from his possession with Boundary Emperor Tian Xue, including a Boundary Emperor Weapon. Strictly speaking, it seemed like Boundary Emperor Tian Xue was at the winning end of the exchange.
However, Chu Kuangren did not mind at all.
He had reaped a huge reward from this trip to the Nether Abyss Valley. The insights that he had gained were far more valuable than these tangible treasures.
After leaving the Nether Abyss Valley, Chu Kuangren arrived at the volcanic entrance and saw the White-Robed General. The White-Robed General had found a couple more treasures after Chu Kuangren had left the place.
However, the White-Robed General seemed helpless as he stood there.
“What happened? Aren’t you happy with all of these treasures?”
“I remember you once mentioned that Qingxue possessed the Deep Freeze Physique. However, all the treasures that I’ve found from this trip are fire-based items, which contradicts her core element. I can’t gift these to her.”
A clash in elements may cause a cultivator to lose their lives if they did not exercise caution using it, no matter how valuable the items were.
The White-Robed General was unwilling to risk gifting these items to Shang Qingxue.
“I’ve seen this coming. Here, take this.”
Chu Kuangren chuckled and retrieved a few items from his Yin and Yang Ring. A surge of freezing energy emanated, cooling over the once heaty volcanic entrance.
“These are…” The White-Robed General stared at the ice-based treasures with shock.
There was a Daoist robe, an orb, and a sword. The items radiated a powerful chill, and each of them represented a treasure that was much sought after by any ice-based cultivators. Yet, Chu Kuangren was now carrying all three of them at once.
“I’ve made a few acquaintances and have gotten these from them. You can use it as your reunion gift. It seems fitting.”
The White-Robed General hesitated. “But…”
“No ‘buts’. Just take it. If you don’t feel good about it, I don’t mind exchanging it for the treasures you’ve looted from this place. What about that?”
“Alright, then.”
The White-Robed General nodded and handed all the treasures he had looted over to Chu Kuangren. These treasures were of little use to him anyway.
The White-Robed General looked at Chu Kuangren with a hint of gratitude in his eyes. “Thank you so much.”
Chu Kuangren had aided the White-Robed General in locating his descendant. Now, he had even helped the White-Robed General to cement his relationship with his descendant. The White-Robed General could not sufficiently express the gratitude he felt for Chu Kuangren in words.
“You’re one of us now, so there’s no need to mention it.”
Chu Kuangren chuckled, and the duo then planned to leave the place.
Just then, Chu Kuangren felt a breeze of fragrant scent waft over, and an alluring figure appeared before Chu Kuangren.
It was the sky-pride of the Nine Heavens, Hu Meiren.
“Brother Chu, my name is Hu Meiren of the Heavenly Fox Tribe. I’ve admired you for a long time now. I have a villa nearby and was wondering if you’d be interested in spending some time with me there? We can talk all night,” Hu Meiren said affectionately, her adorable eyes begging for Chu Kuangren’s attention.
If it were any other cultivator, they would have softened and agreed immediately under her gaze.
However, Chu Kuangren was utterly unaffected.
“Sorry, I’m rushing and short of time.”
“Brother Chu, don’t you want to think about it? I really adore you a lot.”
Hu Meiren approached Chu Kuangren slowly, her bewitching scent permeating even more aggressively now.
Deep within her mischievous eyes were a hint of venereal desires.
Hu Meiren was a tad shorter than Chu Kuangren and was dressed in a cerise low-cut dress. As she slightly bent her waist forward, Hu Meiren revealed her sweet bare cleavage that would make most men dream of burrowing their faces within.
Chu Kuangren glanced at Hu Meiren.
Then, with a clank, his Self-Descendant Sword flew out on its own and pointed its blade at Hu Meiren’s neck. Its sharp sword qi scattered around them as if the sword was ready to slice through at any moment.
Hu Meiren gulped, but she was still able to muster a friendly smile. “Brother Chu, what’s the meaning of this?”
“I’m sorry. My sword isn’t really fond of a stranger getting too close to me.”
Chu Kuangren smiled gently. He was especially handsome when he smiled, and it was enough to put Hu Meiren in a daze.
While Hu Meiren was caught in her infatuation for Chu Kuangren, the Self-Descendant Sword emitted a blast of sharp sword qi that forced Hu Meiren to take several steps back.
“Is this sword jealous?” Hu Meiren stared at the sword and said puzzledly.
“Who knows?”
Chu Kuangren mobilized his spiritual thought, and the Self Descendant Sword flew back into its scabbard.
“White-Robed General, let’s go.”
“Okay.”
Chu Kuangren did not give Hu Meiren a second look and left with the White-Robed General.
Hu Meiren stuck her tongue out as she watched Chu Kuangren leave. “I can’t believe there are still men who won’t fall for my seduction.”
“Haha, you sly fox, you should just give up now. I don’t think those tricks are enough to win over that man. Why don’t you consider seducing me instead?”
Wang Tianteng let out a peal of laughter and said.
“You? You’re not even one-tenth of what he’s worth. Seducing you is no fun at all.”
Hu Meiren mocked.
Wang Tianteng frowned unhappily and rebuked, “Although Chu Kuangren is indeed strong, I certainly don’t deserve to be mocked by others.”
“Hu Meiren might be sly, but she does have a point. Pfft, we still have a long way to go if we want to stand a chance against Chu Kuangren.”
Zhan Hongying, who was wearing a metal mask, came over and said.
“If even you agree with that remark, it seems like Chu Kuangren’s appearance is more impressive than his combat strengths.”
Xiao Jingchen said calmly, albeit feeling a little envious.
There were not many female cultivators on the Soaring Dragon Leaderboard. Only two of them managed to rank in the top ten, which were Zhan Hongying and Hu Meiren.
Zhan Hongying was ranked second on the leaderboard, and her performance was a little better than that of Xiao Jingchen. Now, even the two of them looked up so much to Chu Kuangren. Although the ladies were telling the truth, the other cultivators were still unhappy no matter how they thought about it. Just why in this world did Chu Kuangren deserve to be so excellent?
