Cursing, Su Ming stood up and finally looked around his surroundings. He seems to be in a relatively simple but wide room. You could tell that the original owner of this body wasn't fond of extravagance.
His room was located on the fifth floor of the building, which was for his personal use.
Inside the room, there was a distinct lack of any modern pieces of equipment. This world was like ancient China.
He walked up to a mirror and looked at his reflection. A little handsome face appeared in his sight. Long inky-black hair, black eyes, straight eyebrows, and delicate-looking skin. He had feminine grace.
While his body has grown due to the cultivation increase, he was still relatively slim when compared to bulky and muscled men of this world.
He was tall, quite tall actually, reaching 6'5" in height. The average was around 6'3" for men in this world. For girls, it was around 5'7" to 5'8".
Su Ming only understood one thing with this information: he can expect to see many tall, sexy, and slender womanly legs in the future!
Naturally, he was overjoyed.
Knock! Knock!
While Su Ming was drooling thinking about meeting long-legged women in the future, a knock on the door interrupted him.
"Master Su Ming, an important guest is coming today, do you want to welcome them yourself?" An old voice came from the other side of the door.
"Uncle Sang, please enter inside and speak." Su Ming said while thinking about this Uncle Sang. He was one of Su Ming's benefactors when he was still a poor boy so when he opened Cuisine Pavilion, he hired him as a close assistant.
Uncle Sang used to run a shop, so he had good management skills. In the success of Cuisine Pavilion, he had massive contributions.
While the original Su Ming respected Uncle Sang, the current Su Ming was indifferent, not only to him but to the whole Cuisine Pavilion.
The memories he received were like a movie and he was an audience in the stands so he couldn't really connect on an emotional level with anything in this world. It may also be due to the fact that he spent an unknown amount of time in that dark space, causing subtle changes within him.
Whatever the case might be, he only has two wishes right now. Find the Daughters of Luck and increase his strength, rest was irrelevant. But out of sheer curiosity, he invited Uncle Sang. He also wanted to know who these important guests were. After all, Uncle Sang rarely disturbed him.
Uncle Sang opened the door and stepped inside. He looked at Su Ming faintly and a hint of glimmer shined in his old eyes. He felt like Su Ming today seemed quite different, especially his eyes which were different from his usual kind ones. But he didn't think much of it.
"Uncle Sang, who are these important guests you speak of?" Su Ming asked casually, secretly thinking that maybe it was a noble or something.
"Yes, Master Su Ming, are you familiar with Beibei Sect?" Uncle Sang didn't directly answer the question.
"Of course, what's the matter?"
'So it was them. Well, even the outer disciple of the Beibei Sect are treated with respect in the secular world, so an inner disciple is visiting maybe?'
"The guest's time seems to be a person from Beibei Sect, and she's of a very high standing." Uncle Sang said.
"She?" Su Ming's ears perked up after hearing that it was a woman, he was immediately interested.
How could Uncle Sang miss this? He quickly advised with some anxiousness: "Master Su Ming, please don't be impulsive. We can't afford to offend these people from Beibei Sect."
"Relax, Uncle Sang, I won't do anything stupid." Su Ming waved his arm nonchalantly and said but inwardly, he was already thinking of capturing this woman and making her his servant.
One, because he can get a lot of information about this world from her and use her links to find Daughters of Luck, and second, well, ahem, maybe he can finally lose his V card with her!
The women who cultivate are often defined as pure as white, with ethereal temperaments and perfect bodies in Chinese novels. Surely, she wouldn't be ugly, right?
"Then, Master Su Ming…"
"Yeah, leave them to me. When are they coming?" He asked.
"They should be arriving anytime—"
"Uncle Sang, they are here! People from Beibei Sect!" A waitress ran up to them and announced.
Hearing this, Uncle Sang faced Su Ming and said: "Master Su Ming, I'll leave them to you."
"Hmm," Su Ming nodded and stepped out of the room.
Before he could even reach the ground floor, he could hear the loud commotion. While going down the final set of stairs, he saw that everyone's faces, especially men's were turned in a particular direction. Their faces were smiling straight but a second look would easily reveal the fierce lust inside their eyes.
Su Ming ignored them and focused on the entrance where everyone was looking.
Two people were standing there. One appeared mature, with steady and elegant bearing seemingly indifferent to all the attention, while the other looked to be in their early teens, probably 15 or 16.
They were both women, and they were beautiful beyond belief. He felt like even Xiao Ling, the goddess of his dreams was 30% less beautiful than the teenage girl and she was less beautiful among the two!
≪Ding! Detected a Daughter of Luck! Do your best to make her your Devil Servant!≫
≪A new mission is issued!≫
≪Mission: Make Cao Yue your Devil Servant!≫
≪Rewards: 50 Devil Cards, 5 Devil Pills, ???(Based on system evaluation)≫
≪Failure Penalty: Host becomes a frog!≫
≪Time Limit: By tonight≫
Hearing this, Su Ming was completely stunned. Turns out that he met a Daughter of Luck just like that! He glanced at the mature woman who had a golden arrow pointing at her for a few seconds before disappearing.
Clap! Clap!
"Everyone, you are making the fairies feel unwelcome." Su Ming got out of the daze and clapped his hands to get everyone's attention with a smiling face. Since he got a target, naturally, he has to act. He doesn't want to become a frog after all.
He felt weird saying fairies, but apparently, that's what everyone calls women who cultivate and looks beautiful in this world.
As everyone also realized that they have been staring at them for far too long, most of them pry their gazes away. But some still stared at them. Su Ming could do nothing about this, after all, those women were too beautiful, especially the mature one.
She stood straight, like an arrow with deep and cold eyes, and glanced at Su Ming.
"I apologize to fairies. Welcome to my Cuisine Pavilion. We have a separate booth where you can enjoy our delicacies privately, would you like me to guide you there?" Su Ming stood in front of them and said with an easygoing smile.
"Of course, quickly take us there. How dare you make us wait here! Do you know who we are?" The sweet-looking teenage girl scolded angrily, her mouth filled with poison. It was hard to believe that someone as lovely as her could be like this.
"Xun'er." Cao Yue said simply, her voice soft yet cold. The girl Xun'er shut her mouth with a huff. Seeing this, Cao Yue shook her head lightly but has no intention of reprimanding her. She wouldn't reprimand her disciple for some non-cultivator, obviously.
Seeing this, Su Ming's lips twitched uncomfortably. He glanced at Cao Yue faintly and said with a smile, ignoring the poisonous mouthed girl: "I apologize for the inconvenience, please follow me."
Saying so, he turned around. When he turned around, a hint of annoyance finally passed in his eyes but it quickly subsided. He made up his mind to plug his 'big weapon' inside the little mouth of that poisonous mouthed girl and teach her a good lesson later!
Cao Yue and Xun'er followed behind Su Ming who took them to the fourth floor where private booths were. He choose the biggest and most lavish booth and got them settled inside.
On the way, the poisonous girl's mouth wasn't silent so Su Ming was thoroughly annoyed. She complained about how he made her wait for so long, how they came from so far away to this forsaken place, how it smells like gutter around here and whatnot.
If it wasn't that Su Ming couldn't defeat Cao Yue, who was in the Late Stage of the Core Formation Realm, he would have already taught her a lesson!
