A busty woman with long black hair walked down the streets of the residential district for disciples, heading for one house in particular. It was very early in the morning, and she was betting on the girl she was looking for still being at home. She knocked on the door, and a few seconds later, a servant welcomed the woman in.
"What can I do for you, elder," the servant asked. It was easy to tell that the woman was an elder since she was far too well-dressed to be part of the sect staff. For members of the sect, only elders were allowed to wear whatever clothes they desired.
"Is Aurora home?" The woman responded, her voice deep and confident, like a lady of the high court.
"I believe she is eating breakfast at the moment. Shall I bring her to you, elder?" The servant bowed, showing the utmost respect. Were she to make the elder even slightly annoyed, she could lose her job or her life if the woman was wicked enough.
"No, just bring me to her," the woman said. The servant bowed again and showed the elder to the dining room. Inside, four disciples were eating, seeming quite happy together. It had been several days since the incident with the sex tapes, and Aurora had calmed down and was once more as friendly as ever with Koren. He was still banned from the bed, though. However, that wasn't to say that Aurora had canceled their agreement. Koren could still demand sex from Aurora twice weekly, and he had spent his second pass before the week ended. Aurora had also sought him out on her own when she was in the mood or needed more sex energy.
The woman walked over to the table and grabbed a fruit, biting it once before looking right at Aurora.
"Hello, Aurora. I am elder Birenna, the head of the public sex department. Since you will join us in a week, I decided to pay you a visit to explain some things. Let's go somewhere private," elder Birenna said.
"Of course, elder," Aurora immediately stood up and went to a side room to speak with the elder. The two took a seat each. Aurora was nervous, meeting a new elder just like that. So far, she'd had very little interaction with elders other than Vara, so for one to seek her out seemed strange to Aurora.
"The truth is, I came here to discuss one matter in particular, but since I'm here, I might as well explain a few things about our department," Birenna started.
"Please, go on, elder," Aurora urged.
"First of all, the public sex department is, in reality, three different departments, but they all have something to do with sexuality or sexualizing. Everyone takes turns working in each place for a month, so you'll get to try everything. Since you were a virgin recently, you'll start in the modeling department. There, we do photoshoots for all sorts of things, like fashion magazines, catalogs, and even softcore porn magazines. So you'll be doing shoots in clothes, underwear, and nude. After one month of that, you'll go on to the porn studio, which is what I wanted to speak to you about, but we'll get to that soon enough. After one month of filming porn, you'll work in the brothel, where people will pay to have sex with you. There aren't many brothels that employ cultivators only, so there are a lot of customers. And ours is the most prestigious in the kingdom, if not the world. When you start working there, you'll see many customers daily," elder Birenna explained.
"I see. What about the porn? You said you wanted to speak about it?" Aurora asked. Hearing how she'd sell her body to many people didn't make Aurora happy. In comparison, porn was much better.
"Indeed. Since you were a virgin just a week ago and are still new to sex, I thought going straight into making porn full-time might be too much for you, even a month from now. So I'll ease you into it by having one shoot every week while you're modeling. And there are also some things I'd like you to prepare for. You will be having anal sex, and I assume you are yet to try anal due to your inexperience. I want you to have anal sex a few times this week just so you're ready. And you're probably doing oral already, but just in case, practice that too. Swallow cum a few times, and maybe even take it on your face. And make sure to practice deepthroating. That is when you take the whole cock inside your mouth. Can you do all that for me?" Elder Birenna asked.
"Yes, elder. I've already had cum on my face and swallowed, too. And deepthroating is no problem. But I'll make sure to have anal next time," Aurora responded.
"Good. That is everything I wanted to talk about. I'll take my leave," elder Birenna stood up.
"Thank you for the visit, elder Birenna. I look forward to working for you," Aurora said and bowed to the elder. It wasn't entirely true, but she would still show respect to the elder. After all, she wasn't the one who had assigned Aurora to the sex department.
A few days passed since the elder's visit. Only three days remained until Aurora had to start working, now. Aurora had allowed Koren to fuck her ass the same day she met elder Birenna. She had expected it to hurt, but at her stage of cultivation, a dick up her butt wasn't enough to cause any discomfort.
Instead of pain, it had given her an interesting sensation. It wasn't as good as regular sex, but she still enjoyed it. Koren had liked it even more. Aurora wouldn't mind doing it every now and then.
One evening, Aurora was relaxing with her twin friends, just watching random TV in the living room, when Koren came rushing in.
"Girls, quick! One of our fellow disciples is being executed in a few minutes. Let's go watch!" Koren said, excited.
"What? Seriously? What did he do?" Rila asked.
"Not he, she. And she killed a fellow disciple in cold blood during the last tournament. The sect is pretty strict about stuff like that. If you purposely kill any of your fellow disciples, you get executed, so now this woman will die. Let's go watch," Koren said, strangely eager about watching someone get killed.
"I don't know if I want to see that… I've never seen a human die before," Aurora said, feeling a bit ill just at the thought of it. The only life-and-death battles she had participated in were against beasts, and that was only during the few missions she'd been on in her old sect.
"Aurora, you and I are both cultivators on the warrior's path. Killing humans is in our nature. It is best to have your first experience with human death outside battle. Come, let's go," Koren urged her.
"Yeah, you're probably right. If I want to be a warrior, I can't hesitate at the sight of death. I'm coming with you," Aurora said before standing up and looking at the sisters.
"We're coming too! I totally want to see this!" They said. The four went to the plaza in front of the Punishment Hall together. There was a large group of people surrounding the plaza. The square was empty for any decorations except for a single stone block with several cracks in it. Somehow, Aurora and her group managed to get to the front, but the event had yet to start.
More than twenty minutes passed before anything happened. Two people came walking out of the Punishment Hall. One of them was a young and naked woman. Her eyes were red, and tears streaked down her cheeks. Beside her was a man dressed in black pants and a bare chest, and surprisingly, Aurora recognized the man. It was the same man who had taken Aurora's virginity, elder Mura Han.
"So elder Han is actually the punishment elder. That's surprising," Aurora said.
"You know him?" Koren asked, the twins also looking at Aurora curiously.
"Yeah, he's the first man I had sex with," Aurora said, not elaborating further. Before anyone could ask anything more, elder Han spoke.
"You have been charged with murdering your fellow disciple, and the sentence is death. Kneel," Mura spoke in a cold voice. The girl made several crying noises, but she knelt on her own and placed her head on the stone block without anyone pushing her. The girl's face was facing Aurora, and she could see the fear in her eyes. The girl didn't look much older than Aurora, and she was clearly not ready to die. But there would be no saving her. In but a mere few moments, she would be beheaded, and she would die.
Elder Mura stepped to the girl's side and drew his sword. He raised it high, and then it fell down. The blade effortlessly sliced through the neck, and the girl's body fell limp without a sound, and the head rolled down the floor.
Blood sprayed everywhere, be it on the ground or over the girl's breasts. Aurora's eyes were fixated on the executed girl's eyes. She couldn't breathe. The girl was not dead yet, but Aurora watched as the life faded out of her pupils until nothing was left. For someone at her stage of cultivation, that took a while.
Elder Han turned away, leaving the naked, headless body to bleed out.
Aurora felt a few tears escape her eyes as she came to terms with witnessing her first human death in such a cruel way. The girl had been left with no dignity. She'd been stripped naked, leaving no evidence of her former rank in the sect, and then she was beheaded in front of an audience.
Aurora stumbled back, being caught by Koren.
"Woah, you okay there?" He asked, putting his arms around Aurora.
"Yeah, I'm fine. I, I just… I didn't think this would affect me so deeply. I can't have a reaction like this on the battlefield," Aurora said.
"Don't worry, just go watch a few more executions. Get used to the sight. While executions of disciples are pretty rare, executions of servants and outsiders who got sentenced to death happen all the time," Koren said.
"Alright. Yeah, I'll do that. I'm a bit surprised, though. There weren't any public executions over at Mount Northpeak," Aurora said.
"Yeah, these big sects are a bit more old-fashioned. From what I've learned at my job, the Blossoming Rose Sect is brutal in criminal punishment, even for stuff like stealing. If you steal from a disciple, even once, you lose your hand, and you're sent to prison. Twice, and you've lost another hand. If you assault a disciple, you'll be stripped naked like that corpse over there and be publicly whipped," Koren said.
"Seriously? There are a lot of rules, though. Guess I'll have to be very careful," Aurora said.
"No, no, those are just for criminal offenses. There are more ordinary punishments for normal rule-breaking, like not wearing your uniforms. Although this being a crazy sex sect and all, there are also some pretty unique ones. The most extreme I heard about is for girls only. If you get this punishment, you must take fertility medicine, get pregnant, and then carry the child to term. The medicine apparently makes you constantly ovulate, so you're pretty much guaranteed to get pregnant from it," Koren said.
"Seriously? Why would they want to make disciples pregnant?" Sila asked, finding the whole thing baffling.
"To get more disciples, obviously. If I got you pregnant, our kid could also practice sexual cultivation. I forgot to mention, but you'd have to get pregnant with someone from the sect," Koren said.
"Shit, I wouldn't want to be forced into getting pregnant just because of breaking some rule. I want to be a mom someday, but that should still be a long time in the future," Rila said.
"Well, it's only used for pretty big offenses. One woman got it because she went to work for another brothel that wasn't part of the sect. That's a big no-no," Koren said.
"Makes sense. Elder Birenna said that the Blossoming Rose brothel is the best one around, so they wouldn't want their girls going to other places for work," Aurora said.
