Chapter 962 - National Beauty Pill

Half a month passed and the buzz around the tournament died down, but everyone still remembered how crazy and tough Long Chen had been. They still talked about that day and enjoyed it. Long Chen was indeed one of the first Heavenly Martial Realm cultivators to defeat someone at the Divine Martial Realm.

Now he was the disciple of the beautiful City Lord. Everyone was satisfied with the ending.

In everyone’s eyes, Long Chen was almost at the same standing as Ye Xuan. Both of them were considered geniuses under the City Lord's tutelage.

Ye Xuan was the City Lord’s brother even though their age gap was massive.

Su Xue’s injuries finally healed after half a month. The first thing she did after healing was find Su Mo.

Su Mo and Su Xue were alone in the massive yet empty Purple Mo Pavilion.

Compared to her previous self, Su Xue was much more grounded and restrained. She was ashamed when she kneeled in front of Su Mo.

“General Su Mo, it’s all my fault. I was too careless and was taken advantage of. I have brought dishonor to you. I should be executed.”

But Su Mo wasn’t angry. He smiled and shook his head. With a wave, Su Xue was gently lifted off the ground before he slowly placed her on his lap.

She whined a little, but she placed her head in his chest and cried.

“The young man called Long Chen... His cultivation level is low, but he’s a very strong Armament Warrior. He also has a lot of strange techniques. More importantly, he’s mentally tough, and that’s not something you can win against. Someone like him must’ve killed all the way from the bottom to reach the top. His experience in battle far exceeds yours, so it’s natural for you to lose. Don’t blame yourself over this loss.”

Su Xue nodded. “Okay... But I won’t let him go. I will deal with him the next time I see him!”

“Don’t be rash. The tournament was a bust and we might’ve exposed ourselves. If we do anything right now, the City Lord will definitely be suspicious of us. We can only lay low for the time being. I’ve worked for hundreds of years for the sake of the Red Lotus Jade Pendant. I don’t mind waiting for longer.”

Su Xue didn’t want to let it go. “Do we

have

to wait?”

Su Mo had not only consoled her, he hadn’t even scolded her. Su Xue was touched and she made a decision.

“General Mo, I obtained a pill when I was on a mission before. I think you can use it.”

Su Mo was interested. “What pill is it?”

Su Xue took out a box shrouded in pink mist from her storage ring. Suddenly, the atmosphere turned bizarre and both Su Mo and Su Xue felt lust taking over their hearts. Their bodies became hotter and their desire grew.

Su Xue quickly put the pill away when she sensed Su Mo’s increasing body temperature.

Su Mo’s eyes were glistening with excitement and curiosity. “Xue’er, what is that pill? How could it be so strong that it could cause someone to lose their sense of self?”

Su Xue chuckled. “It wasn’t refined by the Underworld Estate. Long ago, there was a famous individual from the Eastern Royal Palace called the Silver Demon. He was the only one who could refine pills like these. He used them on a lot of women to sleep with them. Even after learning the truth, the women couldn’t resist going back to him for more. Because of how many women he raped, he was executed by the people from the Eastern Royal Palace.

“This is a Rank Three Divine-tier pill that he left before he died. Even though it’s only a Rank Three, it’s potent enough to affect a woman at the Fifth Divine Martial Stage.”

Su Mo’s eyes lit up. He had indeed heard about the crimes of the Silver Demon. He held Su Xue’s hands tightly. “Su Xue! Is that really the National Beauty Pill?”

She nodded. “Yes. If you feed it to that bitch, she will lose herself and you can take advantage of her. Even after you’ve slept with her and the effects wear off, she will be in love with you and will obey you without question. Do you think you can obtain the Red Lotus Jade Pendant if you use the National Beauty Pill?”

Su Mo laughed so loud that his body trembled.

“What a gift from the heavens! Xue’er, you really are my lucky star! Don’t worry, I won’t abandon you even after I’ve slept with the City Lord. You are my real darling.”

Su Xue sighed in relief. She didn’t want to show him the pill in the beginning because she was afraid that he would forget her after the City Lord was in the palm of his hand. But she decided to take it out after losing to Long Chen.

“General Mo, when will you do it?”

“It’s June right now. There will be a ceremony on the fifteenth of August. It will be a grand event and the City Lord would be influenced by the joyous season. I will find a way to be alone with her. The chances of us succeeding will be high as long as I say the right words. Hehe ... City Lord ... You’ve been on guard against me for so long, and now you will finally fall below me!”

Su Mo slowly unraveled Su Xue’s clothes as he said those words.

Su Xue gently struggled against his hands to tease him. “Hey, I just recovered.”

Su Mo didn’t care. In his fantasies, the woman beneath him was none other than the City Lord.

He had craved her for a long time, and now he could finally see the day where he obtained her.

***

After the incident in Underworld City had died down, Long Chen finally had the time to get familiar with Fluttering Blood. At the same time, he also started learning about Killing Tribulation. Both siblings had cultivated it before, so they could give him some guidance.

Long Chen’s cultivation of the Killing Tribulation progressed swiftly thanks to the Dragon Jade Pendant’s influence.

More importantly, the Inherited Blood Essence of the Ancient Bloodsoul Dragon had helped him tremendously. Because Killing Tribulation was a martial technique that incorporated the will to massacre, Long Chen had an easy time understanding it.

The martial technique paired well with his Inherited Blood Essence.

Ye Xuan had a blade with the same name as Long Chen’s sword. Both of them came from the same place and had the same properties.

“Fluttering Blood Stroke!”

“Dragon Slayer!”

“Dance of Demons and Gods!”

“Infinite Killing Tribulation!”

Both Long Chen and Ye Xuan were nothing but a blur in the arena of the City Lord’s mansion. They fought at supersonic speeds.

This was a sparring method they came up with recently.

Ye Xuan was at the peak of the First Divine Martial Stage, so he was slightly stronger than Su Xue. That was why Long Chen always lost to him.

But Long Chen was as fast as Ye Xuan, so he didn’t lose too badly. He also activated the True Martial Overlord Soul every time they sparred, to learn more about the Divine Martial Realm.

The benefits he obtained from Ye Xuan were massive.

A blood-red blade and a blood-red sword flew across the arena without being pushed back.

The sound of howling gusts never stopped.

Ye Xuan had been suppressing his divine essence to spar against Long Chen for four hours straight.

Long Chen loved it because it maximized his cultivation speed. Unfortunately, because he wasn’t in the Underground Battlefield, he couldn’t use the bloodlust from Killing Tribulation against Ye Xuan, so it wasn’t as ideal as Long Chen had expected.

“Die, you pervert!

“Dragon Slayer!”

Ye Xuan’s blade turned into a bloody waterfall that crashed down on Long Chen. It was a massive slash that was much more horrifying than Su Xue’s Demon Slaughtering Array. This was a testament to how strong Killing Tribulation was as a Rank Three Divine-tier martial technique.

“Dance of Demons and Gods.”

Long Chen stabbed and danced as a red whirlpool formed on his sword. As he did, countless dragons formed in the depths of the red whirlpool and destroyed Ye Xuan’s Dragon Slayer with a strong tearing force.

“I give up!”

After using the third technique of Killing Tribulation to destroy Ye Xuan’s second technique, Long Chen fell backwards and collapsed. He had far less essence than Ye Xuan, Long Chen ran out far quicker.

“You bastard, you’ve finally admitted defeat!”

Ye Xuan stopped attacking and the two of them put their weapons away at the same time. He smiled and looked at Long Chen as if he were a monster. “You are indeed some kind of monster. I can’t believe that it only took you two months to master all four techniques of Killing Tribulation. It took me countless years to perfect them.”

Killing Tribulation was a proper martial technique of the Three Royal Territories. Compared to the Emperor’s Manual, a Rank Three Divine-tier Martial Technique was extremely strong.

A simple Fluttering Blood Stroke was much more destructive than Shattered Void. Additionally, Long Chen now had Fluttered Blood as his weapon. He was certain that he would be victorious if he fought an opponent on the same level as Su Xue. In fact, it would be easier for him now to defeat cultivators of that strength.

Long Chen was also confident that he was only one step away from catching up to Ye Xuan. As long as he advanced into the Ninth Heavenly Martial Stage, he would be able to fight on par with him.

Especially since Long Chen would be much faster than Ye Xuan at that point.
