Xu Wendong was stunned. As a scoundrel with numerous female confidantes, he considered himself adept at navigating his way among them. he found himself in an unusually awkward situation. Zhong Qiu was the first woman to question him to his face about whether he was interested in her. Nᴇw novel chapters are publɪshed on 𝔫𝔬𝔳𝔢𝔩⟡𝘧𝙞𝙧𝙚⟡𝘯𝘦𝘵 This was akin to tearing away the last shred of his inner dignity, leaving only a dirty soul. He lit a cigarette to ease his anxious mind. He then spoke, "The cultivation technique I practice is quite special!" "To become stronger, I need to engage in dual cultivation with women." Zhong Qiu was momentarily taken aback, then softly replied, "This technique is much better than absorbing others’ souls or consuming their hearts." Xu Wendong murmured, "There are countless cultivation methods in the world, some truly vile and unscrupulous, but mine is also somewhat unique." "However, I, Xu Wendong, have never forced any woman to do what they didn’t want to." "I have never gone against any woman’s will." "I believe that about you." If it were anyone else, Zhong Qiu might not believe it. But this was Master Xu! Just his solo endeavor two years ago in Haicheng, where he risked his life to slay the Eight-Forked Serpent, showed his heart and mind. Such selfless, courageous acts prove he is a straightforward and honorable man. "Thank you for your trust." Xu Wendong smiled a bit, feeling much more relaxed. He then continued, "Let me explain two issues." Zhong Qiu watched him intently, her admiration showing openly. Xu Wendong said, "The reason you and President Jiang keep clashing is ultimately because you both have rare Innate Spirit Bodies." "President Jiang has a Water Physique, while you have a Fire Spirit Body." "Since ancient times, water and fire have both nurtured and opposed each other. Do you understand what I’m saying?" Zhong Qiu’s wide eyes revealed deep astonishment: "So, does this mean I can also become a cultivator?" Xu Wendong nodded: "Yes, both you and President Jiang can not only cultivate but also achieve remarkable accomplishments." "Moreover, your cultivation speed is faster than an ordinary person’s. What may take others several years to reach the Qi Refinement Realm could only take you three to five days." Zhong Qiu suddenly understood. At this moment, she finally realized why Jiang Xueyao had become a cultivator. With the legendary Innate Spirit Body and Xu Wendong’s guidance, becoming a cultivator was inevitable. "Actually, the second question is directly related to the first one." Xu Wendong smiled awkwardly. "Though a fair lady is desirable, I, Xu Wendong, am not the type of man who wants to possess every beauty he sees." Zhong Qiu forced a bitter smile: "So, the reason you cooperate with Jiang Xueyao is because I have a Fire Spirit Body?" "Mm!" Xu Wendong took a puff of his cigarette: "I need to strive to become stronger, hence I became President Jiang’s personal secretary." "I know this behavior is quite shameless, but what Jiang and I do is entirely of our own free will." Zhong Qiu smiled brightly, revealing an enchanting and alluring grin: "I am also willing." Smiling, Xu Wendong stood up, walked to the balcony, and gazed at the Huangpu River ahead. A hint of confusion flickered in his eyes: "There’s no emotional foundation between us. Why do you wrong yourselves ?" To be honest, although Xu Wendong had many female confidantes, They were all different from Jiang Xueyao and Zhong Qiu. He had some emotional foundation or ambiguous relationships with them, making it seem normal to be together. Take Yang Tao and Zhu Zhu, for example; both had had encounters with Xu Wendong, but the feelings were genuine. Xu Wendong didn’t feel indebted to them. However, Jiang Xueyao and Zhong Qiu were different. There was no emotional foundation or ambiguous relationship between them. For this reason, Xu Wendong thought that their actions were self-disrespecting. He felt heartache for both women. Zhong Qiu walked up beside Xu Wendong and stood shoulder to shoulder with him, her voice gentle: "I used to not understand why so many fanatical fans would do things for their idols that are hard to comprehend." "Now, I seem to understand." "Because being able to do such things with one’s adored idol is a dreamy thing." "Of course, you’re different from celebrities." "Because everything you do is for the country and its people." "If our contribution can make you stronger, can it be considered as defending the country as well?" Xu Wendong looked at her in surprise: "How come you’re so eloquent?" Zhong Qiu’s face showed pride: "I’m just telling the truth!" Seeing Xu Wendong remain silent, a charming blush appeared on her face: "So, can I help you improve your cultivation level now?" Xu Wendong instinctively swallowed. Though Zhong Qiu was a seductive and alluring enchantress, with a beauty and figure comparable to Jiang Xueyao’s, Because they were not familiar with each other, he was uncomfortable doing such things with someone he barely knew. In his view, this behavior was no different from soliciting! "It seems I’m destined to outshine Jiang Xueyao by a notch." Zhong Qiu’s face showed a captivating smile. She then took a deep breath, full of shyness, and began undoing the buttons in front of her. As her fingers gently touched each button, it seemed like she was preparing for the moment that was about to come. Her heartbeat gradually accelerated, and her breathing became somewhat rapid. As time went on, one button after another was undone, her shirt gradually opening to reveal her sensual body. In the light, her skin appeared even fairer, her chest’s curves both enticing and alluring. She wore a black bra, highlighting her graceful figure. Her skin whiteness contrasted sharply with the black bra, accentuating her sensual allure. Her chest’s curves perfectly outlined a deep valley, the black lace edge adding to her mystery and temptation. Her slender legs were extremely alluring, akin to a masterful work of art, exuding endless allure. Her waist was slender, her lines smooth, showcasing feminine grace. Her hair cascaded like a waterfall down to her waist, gently brushing across her cleavage, adding a touch of feminine charm. Her eyes were alluring and captivating, her lips curved into a confident smile, as if demonstrating her beauty and confidence to Xu Wendong. Her fingers were slender and elegant, her nails painted a vibrant red, further highlighting her allure. "My figure shouldn’t lose to Jiang Xueyao’s, right?" Zhong Qiu’s face was flushed. Xu Wendong instinctively swallowed: "It’s hard to say who’s better." Zhong Qiu’s lips curled into a wicked smile: "But I’m different from her, it’s not you who will have me, but me---having you!" With that, she pushed Xu Wendong onto the sofa, full of allure, and sat on him...
