Though the woman was dressed in a tight night outfit, her impressive curves were still unmistakable. Her face was uncovered, revealing fair, delicate skin, luscious lips, and sparkling eyes. This sight left Chu Tian marveling inwardly, "This is way more exciting than watching a short clip!"
A surge of heat coursed through Chu Tian's body. Considering his time on Earth where he had remained inexperienced in such matters, this situation was overwhelmingly tempting. He couldn’t help but feel a strong urge to pounce and experience the allure of this beauty firsthand.
“Big brother!” A voice suddenly echoed from a corner, as if pouring cold water over Chu Tian’s burning desires. Instantly sobered, he turned to see the little chubby boy and Chu Sect Master sitting silently nearby.
“What are you two doing here? And who is this lovely young lady?” Chu Tian asked in surprise.
“Young lady? Kid, are you asking for a beating?” the woman retorted.
Ding! Rage value +1.
Chu Tian was momentarily stunned as he studied her. “Wait, are you not some relative of mine?”
At this moment, Chu Tian assumed she must be a family member or someone related, or why else would she sit so boldly on the throne? However, Chu Sect Master was sweating profusely and shook his head in denial. Tu Feng, the little chubby boy, looked at Chu Tian with an expression as if trying to warn him.
Suddenly, the woman whipped out a lash and struck at Chu Tian. The glow of his Thousand Demon Armor flickered instantly. Already at the sixth tier of protection, Chu Tian had six times the normal defense. The whip strike wasn’t particularly powerful, so it was blocked with ease.
“This… how is this possible?” the woman exclaimed in shock.
Chu Tian grabbed the end of the whip with one hand and smiled, “Beautiful girl, your body is impressive, flexible too, but your attacks? Not so much.”
“You’re insufferable!” she hissed.
Ding! Rage value +1.
She stood up and unleashed the whip with great force. The resounding crack of the lash echoed through the hall as Chu Tian dodged swiftly, laughing, “Nope, not good enough. Keep trying.”
“Damn it!” she roared again.
Ding! Rage value +1.
“Come on, keep going,” Chu Tian taunted.
His endless provocation pushed the woman to lash out with increasing power. Yet despite her efforts, her rage value stopped increasing. Instead, the surroundings were being destroyed by her attacks. Chu Tian sighed, “I’m done playing with you.”
From his storage bag, Chu Tian pulled out the Fire Dragon Sword. Activating its Blazing Sword Star ability, he unleashed a fast and powerful attack capable of overwhelming even a late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator. Caught off guard, the woman was struck, and her clothes caught fire.
Frightened, the woman quickly chanted a spell. A water-blue glow shimmered across her body, extinguishing the flames, but she was left drenched. She stood there, soaked and furious, glaring daggers at Chu Tian.
Tu Feng leapt to his feet excitedly, “Big brother, you’re incredible!”

Even Chu Sect Master breathed a sigh of relief, having been worried they might be beaten by this fierce woman. Meanwhile, Chu Tian was momentarily stunned.
The sight of the soaked woman, her figure even more alluring now, was dangerously seductive. Her wet clothes clung to her body, and Chu Tian’s blood surged again. As she turned her back to them, seemingly adjusting her attire, Chu Tian snapped out of it and grinned. “I recognize you. You’re the one from the spirit mine earlier, aren’t you?”
The woman adjusted her clothes before turning around with a charming smile. “Little brother, I’ve come from afar and have nowhere to go. May I stay with you tonight? If there’s no other place, your room will do. I don’t mind sharing a bed.”
Chu Tian was not one to believe in free lunches, especially when such a stunning woman was involved. If she wasn’t a vixen, she was surely trouble. Still, his curiosity got the better of him, and he smiled, “Sure, my room is in a quiet spot in the sect. No one will disturb you.”
“Thank you, little brother,” she replied sweetly.
Chu Tian turned to Chu Sect Master, whose expression was one of pure shock. “Father, this chubby boy is my friend. Find a place for him to stay. As for this young lady, leave her to me.”
Tu Feng looked both envious and worried. “Big brother, be careful. What if she’s a demoness?”
Chu Tian chuckled mischievously, “If she’s a demoness, I’ll deal with her in bed!”
Tu Feng and Chu Sect Master exchanged speechless glances. Meanwhile, Chu Tian led the woman to his room. Closing the door, he leaned against it and grinned at the coquettish woman. “Beautiful lady, you’re making it hard for me to behave.”
The woman pouted playfully. “I don’t care. The spirit stones you took earlier were ones I worked hard to mine for half a month. I need you to share half of them with me!”
Realizing she was after the spirit stones, Chu Tian relaxed. “Spirit stones? There are plenty, but…”
“But what?” she asked with a pitiful, watery-eyed expression.
As Chu Tian stepped closer with a teasing smile, the woman backed away nervously. “Don’t come any closer! I’m a proper lady!”
“Proper? Then why did you come to a strange man’s room?” Chu Tian countered.
“That’s because…”
“Because you realized you couldn’t seduce me, so you’re giving up?”
The woman hesitated before admitting softly. Chu Tian laughed and stepped closer again. Panicked, she said, “Let’s make a deal!”
“A deal? You mean trading your body for spirit stones?” Chu Tian teased.
“Dream on! I’ll help you deal with the Heavenly Star Sect if you give me spirit stones and don’t make things difficult for me,” she proposed.
Curious, Chu Tian asked, “How do you know I have a grudge against the Heavenly Star Sect?”
The woman pulled out a recruitment notice from the Heavenly Star Sect and explained. Chu Tian also learned her identity—she was Ling Zi, a notorious thief who wandered from place to place.
Ling Zi eagerly proposed, “How about it? If we team up, we can rebuild your Sky Cloud Sect and defeat the Heavenly Star Sect.”
“You?” Chu Tian raised a skeptical eyebrow.
“Of course! I’m a master digger!” she declared confidently.
Chu Tian’s eyes gleamed with interest. “If that’s the case, how about you help me dig into the Heavenly Star Sect’s pill storage? Do you dare?”
“What?” she asked, startled.
“What? Are you scared?” Chu Tian smirked.
Ling Zi shook her head. “No, but if you have a map, I’ll do it!”
Unfortunately, Chu Tian didn’t have a map. To infiltrate the sect, investigate, and locate the storage would take too much time and effort. He sighed, “It seems you have nothing to offer me aside from your perfect body.”
To prove her worth, Ling Zi pulled out a map. “Look! I have detailed records of five Heavenly Star Sect mines and their storage locations. If we team up, we can steal everything!”
Chu Tian examined her carefully. “If it’s so great, why don’t you do it yourself? Why involve me?”
Ling Zi hesitated awkwardly. “After today’s incident, security will be tight elsewhere. I can’t pull it off alone.”
Understanding the situation, Chu Tian agreed. “Fine, deal. But you’ll need to help me with something first.”
“What is it?” Ling Zi asked curiously.
“Use today’s spirit stones to buy rare spirit-replenishing pills from the city for me,” Chu Tian requested.
Ling Zi bit her lip. “Fine, I’ll do it.”
Handing her a storage bag full of spirit stones, Chu Tian watched her leave, smiling slyly. “Change your clothes first. You’ll be uncomfortable staying wet like that.”
Ling Zi paused and smiled, “I didn’t expect you to be so thoughtful.”
As she left, Chu Tian exhaled deeply. “The beauties of this cultivation world are too tempting. I almost couldn’t control myself.”
He glanced down at himself, already stirred, and muttered, “Plenty of time. I’ll definitely win you over one day.”
Thinking about the many beauties in this world, Chu Tian grew too excited to sleep, tossing and turning until late into the night before finally dozing off.
