I went straight to my room, but I didn't sleep; the system quest notification kept bugging me, so I spend the night training my body; I did the traditional push-ups, setups, and squats; I don't know if it's weird to train like this in the xianxia world, but I couldn't care less, the only tip I got from the system, Is trying as hard as I can to channel my qi into my muscles, which boosted my strength to reach another level.
Time went by. I hit a platoon while training, which made me call for the mc childhood sweetheart in the middle of the night.
A while passed before; a cute little girl appeared at the entrance of my door; she didn't wear her usual maid attire, but just a royal blue nightgown loosely hanging around her jade skin; I can even see her collar bone if I focused my eyes.
My heart skipped several beats at that moment; the cuteness radiating from this little maiden is out of this world; I can't even imagine this late bloomer after she finishes with her puberty, but I thanked God she didn't possess the curves and matureness of an adult lady yet, or my heart would've stopped.
Her figure was shaking even more than last time. Her deathly white face exposed everything going on in her brain.
'Why would she be so scared again? Did I do something? Beside my naked upper body, I don't think I committed any offense.'
"Y-young master W..why are you naked? And, what do you want from me?" Her scared attitude was again at full display in front of me, and it was pure comedy."
I burst out laughing and signaled her to come closer.
"M..master?"
I got down in my push-up pose and said in the most gentle voice this arrogant body could make, "Can you sit on my back? I can't find any weights around and thought I might use your services."
"Ah?" Her facial expressions instantly cleared up, and the confusion that was building up in her mind, dispelled.
Her face became flushed red from the embarrassment; she completely misunderstands my attention; I'm not that dumb to not understand what she was thinking, but I have too much on my plate right now to care; I should not fail that die-hard fan creepy primordial god or my soul will not be able to reincarnate just like the poor author.
"Yes, young master." she quickly responded before sitting on my back; her small hands glued tightly to my shoulder; I heard her chaotic heartbeats; they were pumping even stronger than me, the one who's going to do the training, however, without any further ado.
I started thumping blood to my chest.
Two hours passed just like that; At this point, I felt Yao getting sleepy and her grip gradually losing strength; I stopped my continuous push-ups and said, "I'm pretty tall; you can lay on my back and close your eyes, but make sure to tighten your grip around my body."
"Huh?" she opened her tired eyes wide open and hesitantly said, "Y-young master are you sure?"
"Yes, I can't let you suffer with me." in a low voice, I responded.
The massive confusion about my personality in her mind made her speechless; my actions completely contradict this body, grand voice, and expressions. This damned Pig arrogant young master that now upgraded to the cliché handsome young master is significantly reducing my charm; Regardless of that, a plan to make this little girl forget the mc already formed in my head.
On occasions like this one, you should be the main aggressive force, assaulting her blurry feelings and inserting yourself instead, both mentally and physically, into her soul; 'I don't know if two years is enough, but I will try my best.'
I heard her utter a "Un."
She laid down on my back and put her right cheek right behind my neck, her hands folded around my chest, profoundly feeling my strong beats, filled with vitality and determination; shortly after, her breath stabilized, and before I even know it, she slept.
And in my case, I kept training like a maniac the whole night.
The sunshine of the second morning in this new world assaulted my eyes; I opened them and found myself on the ground while a girl clinging to my body; apparently, I was too tired and ended up passed out on the floor; I tried to stand up and lift her to the bed, but I ended up waking her up, her eyes hastily looked around, and then glanced at the boy she tightly hugging.
I smiled in response and said, "Good morning."
As usual, her speechless demeanor showed itself yet again; I noticed that every time she's embarrassed, her hands start to tremble.
I held her hand and said, "Don't be afraid, I just passed out on the ground." before even explaining to her, How I passed out last night; a tremendous pain rushed my brain; I felt like I can't move a single muscle.
Thus, letting out a groan, I rebounded on the ground for couple of times.
She noticed my sudden state and yelled, "Young master, what happened."
I endured the after pain and answered, "It seems as I overdid it last night, don't worry about me. I just need to bathe in some healing herbs; "
"Can you please help me got up to my bed?"
She stole a glance at my eyes again, The bewilderment that been stacking in her brain erupted, and she asked, "Young master, why are you doing this?"
'Of course, to save my ass, I still have thousands of people I should walk on.'
"For me," I reached my hands and lightly touched her cheeks, "If I touched you previously in my disgusting body, would you have the same reaction as of now?"
"..." she kept silent, simply staring at my eyes.
'Pft! I can't believe I said such bullshit!'
"See, I'm all doing this for myself; nobody forced me, people would spread bad rumors about me, just because I'm born with this face, body, and arrogant smile, but I didn't care about that, I just felt like changing, and I did exactly that" I no longer wanted to speak anymore and just looked deeply at the seeling, looking like I'm significantly hurt.
'Where is my damn oscar? Hehehe! Those dumb, silly mc quotes do work sometimes.'
She helped me got up and put me on my bed while she called the guards; her guilty expression said a lot of things, particularly her earlier disgust toward me, that was only based on rumors.
I needed to make this vulnerable persona around her; that's the only way I can get her to change her earlier assessment toward me.
'If the trash mc could move her with his bullshit determination and sympathy, why I couldn't too?'
I spend the day tending to my muscle damages; 'at least this asshole's spatial ring is filled to the grim with all sorts of healing potions and pills.'
A guard informed me that my grandpa wants to see me again; I got surprised by how much this old man works fast; I thought I would at least need a week or two of kissing ass to get personally summoned.
But well, my muscles are 90% healed, so no harm at least.
Some giant guards wearing black escorted me to a red woody building; decorated with swords and mythical dragons; the first thing I saw after I entered is a dojo; walking along the polished stone path, I found an old man sitting on a green crystal meditating, as the aura of the heaven and earth danced around him
"Grandpa!" I happily yelled;
"Pft!" A spit reverberated outside.
The guards at the door got shocked. The panic was visible on their visage; the last one who dared to bother the patriarch during his cultivation is not only dead, but the previous guard partners and also his family got annihilated.
Nevertheless, I didn't know any of that.
The old man opened his eyes; he seems like he already knew precisely when I'm coming; his face was all smiles, letting out a sigh he said, "Brat! I was afraid you would change after yesterday, but that hit effect looks like it's permanent."
"Hehe! How could I change after having the honor of glancing at your beard up close!" I laughed cheekily.
"He heh, heh! Yes, yes, your damn right, but now I'm waiting for that divine technique you said last night; I tried all kinds of expensive herbs from the best doctors in the city, but nothing seems to work."
"Alright, please, laid down on your stomach."
He nodded and laid down on the vast crystal bed. After I stripped him from his upper clothes, strong muscles displayed under my watch, 'Holy shit! This old man can win a bodybuilding show in my world!'
I channeled my new technique, "Phoenix skin," into my palm and used a famous massage therapy using heat as a comfort source;
It will help loosen up his muscle tissues and push my talent to a new high. I also included some Tai massage moves to relieve the pain and increase the motion range in his joints.
Time went by; I smoothly moved from body part to body part; my techniques didn't fail me in this world too; moans kept escaping his mouth, and from his blissful face, I dictated that he was playing at cloud nine close to reaching heaven.
My skills don't only help the body but also clear the mind.
'System, you doubt me too much; I told you, I'm the messiah of street 911.'
After finishing, He got up and stretched a little bit; he stared at me and screamed, "Filial! What is this wizardry? Such talent!"
'Ugh! It's just a massage, old man; this world is too traditional.'
He checked his new body and said: "From today onward, you will be practicing this heavenly technique on me every week!"
'What the fuck! Did I overdo it again?'
He clasped his hands and wickedly giggled.
I was terrified, 'Why would he giggle like he won the lottery?»'
What I didn't know, Is the only thing this old man loves more than his beard is money; this perverted geezer already thought of a plan to work me like a dog while he harnesses riches from the family elders.
And my assumption didn't take long before it happened.
"Hmm, the family elders might also need to use the divine teachings you received from that hit," He requested, but behind it was an obvious order. I mean, who would dare to say no to a mighty master.
Looking deeply, I can imagine inside his head, A blushing old man ecstatically running in a pill of coins.
'Oh! Shit! I chose to hold around the wrong tights!'
But it was too late; I already triggered his hidden greedy urges.
"cough* Well, let's join the family night feast for now."
Like yesterday, we all have dinner together; I walked up beside my grandpa under my large family members' envious gazes, especially my close bastard pal; he was partially red-eyed.
'Die, bastard,'
I will genuinely take the most revenge out of him; if I can't kill the mc, I will start with you then.
I looked around and spotted my parents chatting with some elders; my father "Zang Yan" was the second older son of my grandpa, and my mother "lan Xia" belonged to the famous Xia family; if my family was influential in this city, then the Xia family is famous trough out the whole kingdom, I asked my grandpa if I can go talk to my family for a short period; he nodded his head and proceeded to sit in his high fancy chair.
My mother already noticed my arrival; I can tell she didn't sleep last night from the black spots around her eyes, probably from the shock of my transformation; my father covered his face in shame after failing to recognize his only son.
I waved my hands and walked up to them; I heard my old man voice-first, "Punk, when did you become so handsome? You even can rival me now; half the young girls in the family couldn't sleep last night, including your mother." before he even finished talking, my mother elbowed him in the ribs, his face instantly blackened from fear, and she warmly smiled at my direction. "It's my son! He can do anything if he put his mind to it; come let mommy see your face."
'Ha! So my old man is that type of husband, heh! Interesting, well, I can't blame him; looking up close, that bastard author yet again made my mother look like every wicked witch cannon fodder villain mother; this asshole is just too ruthless!'
"Yes, mother." I got close, and she held my cheeks and frowned. "Ah! My poor kid got so much prettier; he might attract young girls' hearts! I don't like this change! I Can't let those Sluts play with my little treasure,"
'Um? stop thinking out loud.'
The evening finished with my mother aggressively stuffing food in my mouth. However, I knew that these peaceful times are only because the plot didn't start yet.
