I open my eyes to notice that it was morning already. I stand up and start to stretch my body to wake up my muscles and let the blood flow.

After sending the fox with Lifen, I started meditating to calm my angry mind.

It took me the whole night just to calm myself so I had no time to sleep at all. But that was no problem because cultivators in this novel rarely needed to sleep.

Instead, they could just meditate to refresh their body and mind. The higher your cultivation was, the less you needed to sleep. In my case, I just needed 4 hours of sleep a week.

The reason my anger is so out of control, even though my cultivation is quite high, is because Lei Yang never put any effort to control his anger as he was cultivating. This was also one of the many reasons for his bad personality and reputation in the sect.

Sure, he was a heaven-sent genius who reached the Heavenly Soul realm by the age of 21 without even putting in any serious effort. But, his bad behavior and personality made him very unpopular.

Being drunk most of the time, forcing girls to sleep with him, killing someone because of small things, taking assassination requests behind his mother's back, and wasting away the sect's money.

All these things made people avoid him and call him stupid.

"Ok, let's do this", I say while cracking my neck.

Now that the fox was taken care of, I needed to do two things.

The first one was to improve my relations with my mother.

Lei's relationship with her mother went downhill when he accidentally discovered the secret about his birth. After that, he started to distance himself from his mother and just became a waste.

So if I go and fix my relationship with his mother, that will give me her support when I start to do the second thing.

Which is cleaning the traitors in the sect. Yes, there are many traitors in this sect.

Some were from other demonic sects, some were from the righteous sects, and some were planning to betray the sect.

All those people had been with us for a very long time so it will be very hard to prove that they were traitors. So I was planning on just killing them and hoping that my mother took my side.

Although I was not certain whether she would take my side, this was not just some random plan with no basis.

In the novel, it was mentioned that she was very devoted to the sect but there was a part where it was shown that she might have loved Lie more than her sect even though she never showed it. After Lie's death, she cried for the very first time in her life and went crazy looking for his murderer which made the other sects form an alliance just to stop her as she went on a killing spree.

So even though Lei's relationship with her mother was not described clearly, I think she most probably will take my side.

I was about to go to my mother when a certain thought came to my mind.

Thinking about all these traitors just gave me an idea that will make things a lot more interesting if it works.

"You, the one outside, come in", I say and then a woman enters my room.

"Greetings my lord, my name is Qin. I will work as your guard until Lifen returns"

"Hmm," I say and look at her up and down.

She was a tall, muscular woman with sun-kissed skin and short brown hair.

She was wearing a sleeveless turtleneck that had an open back. Her muscular arms, which had some scars here and there, were on full display just like her back.

Although she gave off tomboyish vibes and was kind of muscular, her ample breasts and delicate face made her look feminine enough.

I go near her and start touching her body all over.

"You have an incredible body", I say while touching her abs.

"tha..thank you, my lord", she said while trying to look calm but the blush on her ears gave away her emotions.

I chuckle at her cute reaction and say,

"I like you, so you don't have to go back when Lifen returns"

A look of surprise appears on her face and she speaks hesitantly,

"A..are yo..you sure my lord. Tha..that you would want someone like me around you"

"Why, is there something wrong with you?", I ask a little confused

"I..I am big, muscular, and have scars all over my body. Very different from those beautiful delicate women that other men prefer to have around them. I am just ugly and will make you look bad", she said while looking down, trying to hide her sad expression.

I was a little surprised by her answer. How could such a big and strong-looking woman have such a cute side?

I go near her, pinch her chin and lift her face up,

"I don't think you're ugly at all", I say and move my hand to caress her cheek

"So don't go saying stuff like that ever again because from now on, you are mine", I say with a little smile.

"ye..yes, ma..my lord", she says with a tomato-red face and misty eyes.

I don't know who this woman was, as she was not in the novel, but I liked her reactions. So I decided to keep her with me.

I move away from her and command her,

"Anyway, I need you to go get me all the assassins that specialize in undercover, honey trap, and infiltrating missions."

"Yes, my lord", she says and leaves in a hurry.

My mood was quite good after seeing her reactions when I realized that I needed to write all the details about what I wanted the assassins to do.

I sigh and was about to go write the stuff when suddenly the system screen pops up,

[Recomanded Technique]

[Divine Mental Satura]

"What is this?", I ask the system

[Read the technique's Description]

I open it and start to read the description.

*Author Note: Neutral means both demonic and righteous practitioners can learn the skill without backlash*

[Divine Mental Satura (Original)]

(Neutral)

A technique that is practiced in the Zhishi Sect, one of the top righteous sects. Although they have a degraded version of the technique, it is still powerful enough to keep them in the top ten righteous sects.

This technique focuses on mental fortitude, mental communication, and mental attacks. On higher levels, it makes you able to manipulate and read others' minds.

My eyes opened wide in shock.

"What is this technique? This technique was not in the novel. The Zhishi sect was just a second-rate sect that was not even related to the main story. How can they have such a powerful technique."

[Well they don't have the original, they just have a degraded version]

"But I clearly remember that there was no such technique in the novel."

[Host, I think you should clear up something. This is not a novel anymore, this is your reality now]

[In a novel, the authors have no time to describe all the small details but you will find a lot of things that were not in the novel because the gods filled in the missing gaps.]

".…I see".

So this means that if a place was described just as 'mysterious' without telling what was mysterious about it, the gods would have made that place have some kind of mystery that was not mentioned in the novel.

"So this means that I have to explore this world more carefully as there is a lot of stuff I am not aware of."

I was lost in these thoughts when I sense that Qin was back with five others with her.
