"Do you want to know why I called you?" Tzu asked with a sly grin as her hands started shaking her breasts.
Tzu believed that she had Kai under her control but little did she know that Kai was very far away from her reach.
"Hmm, perhaps you want to seduce me?" Kai said with a grin that matched Tzu's grin.
She was startled for a second before she regained her composure.
'He is quite smart.' Tzu thought with a frown but it quickly vanished, instead replaced by one of her seducing smiles.
"Aww, do you want to be seduced by me?" Tzu said in a cute voice and brought her fingers to her lips. She was an ex-disciple of the Blue Moon sect and had learned some amazing seducing skills.
Kai opened his mouth and laughed wholeheartedly and looked at Tzu with amusement.
"You are about a hundred millenniums too young to seduce me." Kai said with a mischievous grin.
Now you might ask, isn't he having sex with many women who are too young to be compared with him?
In reality, he was the one seducing them and not the other way around, and also, as far as the world is concerned, Kai was nineteen, thanks to his appearance.
But Tzu didn't understand what he was saying. Hundred millenniums? Too young? What was he talking about? Tzu looked at him with a frown.
"You are not a real dual cultivator. In reality, you are just someone who only thinks about her own cultivation." Kai suddenly said, his voice completely serious, all traces of amusement gone.
"Isn't everyone like that?" Tzu asked in a shaken voice.
"Dual cultivation was supposed to be an art, an art of happiness and pleasure. But throughout the flow of time, it became more and more corrupted. People started r*ping to benefit their cultivation, dual cultivation sects opened brothels to increase their cultivation and sometimes people started seeing someone and pretended to be in love with them so that they could earn benefits from it." Kai's words contained wisdom. The wisdom that was accumulated over many million years of living.
"But why did people become so greedy? Why did they forget about the true meaning behind dual cultivation?" Kai asked in a slow deadly voice and he started walking towards Tzu, one step with every word.
Tzu gulped nervously and every instinct in her body was telling her to run. But she knew that running would do no good. Even while knowing that, she was still terrified and took a step back involuntarily as though she had lost control of herself.
"Perhaps they wanted to become the strongest or the greatest or perhaps they wanted fame, wealth, and girls. But in the end, they all succumbed trying to want that and the few who survived lived a life they could never imagine. Once you accept that you are greedy, your greed will consume you until nothing is left. You will chase behind impossible goals, no matter what it costs, and in the end, you will rot away." He said slowly as Tzu's body pressed against a wall.
She was terrified beyond her imagination and she wanted to scream but unfortunately, no sound came out. Kai raised his right hand and pushed her chin up so that she was staring directly into his eyes.
"The next time you think about doing something because of your greed, remember what I said. And then, I might consider cultivating with you." He slowly said and stepped back.
Tzu whimpered in fear and watched Kai leave her house. She stood up and calmed her breathing.
Tzu crashed down on her bed, her mind swirling with thoughts. She continued to replay his words in her head until she fell asleep.

As for Kai, he appeared back at the stronghold. His squad was cleaning the place when they saw him and immediately dropped whatever they were holding.
"I am here to ask you about something. I have become the sect master of the Blue Moon sect and I want you all to come to the sect." Kai got straight to the point and many of them gasped.
"Didn't that used to be a dual cultivation sect?" One of them asked, her voice full of uncertainty. However, Kai smiled at them.
"I am originally a dual cultivator however, I won't ask you to cultivate in the sect. You can live there, eat there and you can make new friends. I will personally introduce you to some good people I know. But in the end, it's your decision to make." Kai said as he went silent.
He looked at their expressions, waring between disbelief, shock, anger and perhaps a little longing to see the outer world.
They came together as one and all of them nodded which made Kai smile. He held out his hand everyone held on to it.
He teleported them to the entrance of the sect. He then teleported to where Riang was and brought her back with him.
"Did you just pick up a harem?" Riang asked in confusion as she glanced at the group of 35 women.
"No, they are my cheerleading squad." Kai said with a straight face.
"Your what?" Riang asked again as she wasn't sure about what she had heard.
"My cheerleading squad." Kai repeated and she shook her head.
"Anyways, they are going to stay at the sect as I don't know, the sect's personal cheerleading squad?" He looked at them, asking for their opinions.
"We will clean the sect in exchange for staying here." One of them said and the others nodded.
"No, I promised you that I will let you enter the sect without asking for anything." Kai denied it but all of them shook their heads.
"You did so much for us and we couldn't do anything to thank you." One of them said.
"And now, you are the master of this sect and we have found a way to repay you." Another said.
"We will keep this sect clean and spotless and will repay our debt to you." Another person said and they all smiled. In the end, Kai couldn't refuse them and he sighed in defeat.
"All the disciples are supposed to clean their own houses or they will be banned from dual cultivation for 5 months. But nobody cleans the halls and other places. I will be glad, no owe you if you would do that." Riang said with a smile and let them enter the sect.
They stayed true to their word and immediately started cleaning. Kai was about to go away when Riang suddenly pulled him away in a corner where no one was looking at her.
"We are in a grave situation. The Wu family has found out about Wu Tan's dead and they are asking for your head as compensation. And if they didn't receive it by the next week, they will attack the sect." She said with a worried expression. Wu Tan was the sect's supposed genius that Kai had killed and the sect had hidden the truth about his death from his family.
"How much influence do they wield?" Kai asked.
"They are one of the four great families of the western continent. They have influence in the west region, the Lu family is the great family in the east, the Kuraha family in the north, and the Duramoto family in the south. And the Zian family rules the continent." She explained to Kai.
"We have the ancestor on our side so I don't think they would attack us openly. Perhaps an assassination. I cannot put anyone's life in danger so maybe I should kill them." He said while pondering and Riang gasped.
"Easy there, I was just joking." He said with a grin as Riang calmed down.
"So what will you do?" She asked, her face still full of worry.
"I will go and talk to them." He said with a grin and vanished. Riang facepalmed and wondered about what will happen during the 'talk'.
Kai didn't know where the Wu family lived so instead, he went back to the stronghold. He removed the formations present there and burned the place to ashes that were scattered away by the wind, thus removing any proof of its existence.
He then went to Ryazu city and asked a few people about where the Wu family lived. They reluctantly told him that they lived far out in the west near a huge lake.
With the location known to him, Kai instantly teleported himself away to the lake and stared at the giant palace beside it. It was nothing compared to the royal palace of the Zian family but still, it was quite formidable.
Guards at the hell spirit realm were circling around the palace their expressions fully alert. They thought that no one could enter the Wu family house without permission. They could not be any more wrong.
Kai wanted them to know about his presence so he would enter the house with a bang. And he meant a literal bang.
