Chapter 656: Chapter 57: Beauty at the Window

"I’m quite looking forward to it..."

Just after Luo Suyi left, Su Hongxiu came over.

Lu Chengfeng was very assertive towards her, even though she was a concubine, the relationship between the two was quite delicate, especially after Lu Chengfeng refined the Taotie.

Su Hongxiu could also sense the change in Lu Chengfeng’s attitude towards her, yet she became even more gentle and considerate.

Upon approaching Lu Chengfeng, without waiting for instructions, she slightly bent over, her long sleeves flowing like clouds as she prepared to brew tea.

Her peripheral vision scanned the hall, naturally landing on the center where Lu Chengfeng sat with an air of confidence between his brows.

This man, who had taken her body, had his long hair cascading down, donned in golden garments, as steady as a mountain, with an indescribable wisdom at his grasp, assertive yet poised.

Su Hongxiu gracefully lifted the kettle, and boiling water flowed from the small spout into the plain tea cup on the table. Upon meeting the water, the tea leaves immediately danced up and down, the color spreading like freshly peeled bamboo shoots, verdant and charming, the fragrance intoxicating.

Inhaling the tea’s aroma, her thoughts drifted. In her eyes, Lu Chengfeng in the hall was indeed mysterious, his entire being shrouded in a veil that rendered him indistinct.

Up to this point, she still didn’t understand what kind of methods he used to refine the Taotie, and even facing the erosion of the Heavenly Path Torrent, how he could remain so composed and calm.

Though reason told her that he would surely tread towards destruction, she couldn’t help but want to see how far he would go.

Thoughts swirled continuously. Now was the most chaotic time in the Three Realms, even the top-level Great Power of the Twelfth Layer found it difficult to isolate themselves, so how could Lu Chengfeng remain so composed and confident, facing the erosion of the Heavenly Dao?

Despite the thoughts swirling in her mind, her face did not show a hint, only bearing a graceful smile as she said in a perfectly pitched tone, "Husband, please have some tea."

"Hmm."

Lu Chengfeng nodded, sitting on the chair, and raised his gaze, viewing the woman in front of him. She wore a bright red long dress, without much adornment, yet on her elegant and moving figure, it instead outlined a breathtaking beauty.

He took it all in, removed the tea cup, sipped it, savoring the fine tea aroma flowing in his mouth, and called Su Hongxiu to sit beside him.

Su Hongxiu agreed, adjusted her dress, and sat with her legs together.

"I know what you’re thinking, but those actually don’t matter. Time will prove everything."

Lu Chengfeng extended a hand, took another sip of brewed tea, carefully savoring the aroma, letting it flow in his mouth, and said, "I practice the Path of Time, naturally I won’t seek my own death."

"If I can’t even foresee my own future, how dare I meddle in others’ futures during this chaos in the Three Realms?"

Upon hearing this, Su Hongxiu felt a complex mood, a bit expectant, with a tinge of eager excitement.

She took a deep breath to suppress her restless spirit, slightly raised her face, and said, "Alright, I believe in you, and I’m willing to give myself a chance, I await the day you become the overlord of the Three Realms."

"Haha..."

Lu Chengfeng laughed loudly. She might not know, he absolutely wasn’t aiming to become any overlord of the Three Realms, but to prove himself as emperor, even to step beyond the Three Realms, to explore the transcendent path once walked by the Three Saints, to see what exists beyond the Chaos.

He slightly turned his head, looking at the woman in front, "I’m preparing next to take action against the Taoist Master and Divine Venerate, absorbing this pair of Innate Divine into my court, do you have any suggestions?"

Upon hearing this, Su Hongxiu’s face stiffened, she couldn’t help but curse inwardly. How could there be such a bastard, who just had taken her body, only to mess around with other women at the window, and now saying right before her face that he wanted to take that pair of sisters?

She bit her lip slightly, "You’re truly a scoundrel."

"Haha, so what if I am?" Lu Chengfeng stretched lazily, "If you can help me get them, I’ll send those sisters to serve you as maids."

Su Hongxiu heard this, and was at a loss for words.

"That pair of sisters are not as simple as you imagine. They are not only Innate Divine Demon but also blessed by Creation, they are a Twin Lotus. Once they join hands, their onslaught is overwhelming, even a Celestial Venerate might not fare well against them."

"Do you think no one before you, lacking restraint, attempted to take action against them?"

She couldn’t help but scoff, "All those with such sinister intentions met a disastrous end."

"As far as I know, even Yellow Heaven had thoughts about the Taoist Master, but in the end, it came to nothing."

"I’m naturally aware of this." Lu Chengfeng waved his sleeve, "Yet for those sisters, I must acquire them."

"Anyone obstructing me will be an enemy of the Great Tao, it’s a life and death struggle."

Su Hongxiu, speechless, could only recount all the information she knew about that pair of sisters in detail.

"That pair of sisters are Innate Divine Demon, and once they join forces, their strength skyrockets."

"But that’s not the worst of it, the crucial point is that many ancient beings covet them, and many seek to take action against them."

"Some like you want them in their harem, others wish to refine them into Innate Spiritual Treasure, or use them to cultivate their own Great Tao."

"Once you take action against them, it will inevitably spark a chain reaction."

Upon hearing this, Lu Chengfeng remained indifferent.

Having mastered four Heaven-Reaching Transformations, along with the long-reserved Golden Cicada Transformation and Celestial Spider Transformation, as well as three other Ferocious Beast Transformations, this made nine in total.

To elevate his Tao Cultivation to the Twelfth Layer, the most fundamental Heaven-Reaching Transformations only had three left.

If Su Hongxiu’s Path of Heaven-Burning is counted, only two remain.

He planned to start from that pair of sisters for the final two transformations.

Lu Chengfeng cultivating the Path of Time, in these chaotic times of the Three Realms, performed daily projections of the future, and even more projections of the Great Blade he cultivated.

Throughout his projections, countless combinations were experienced.

In the near future, there is a predestined great war that will sweep through the entire Three Realms, even Celestial Venerates face the threat of demise.

Only by refining the Four Great Fierce Beasts and obtaining that pair of sisters, mastering the transformations of their Great Tao, can he rapidly elevate his Tao Cultivation, significantly boosting his combat power, to survive through the inevitable great tribulation.

Thus, the Four Great Fierce Beasts, as well as the Taoist Master and Divine Venerate, were a must for him.

Anyone daring to stop him would be an enemy of the Great Tao, making it a fight to the death.

After detailing all the secrets known about that pair of sisters, Su Hongxiu was dismissed by Lu Chengfeng.

Within the hall, he was left alone, his eyes turning profound.

"Let’s cultivate for a while, attempting to use the Guardian True Spirit, to resist the erosion of the Heavenly Dao, even superimposing the acquired Heaven-Reaching Transformations upon the Guardian True Spirit."

"If it succeeds, then it’s time to make a move."

"I’m not the only one coveting them."

Lu Chengfeng fell back into closed-door cultivation, yet this time, starlight blossomed between his brows, and the women he’d previously refined into Guardian True Spirits emerged one by one.

With his continuous elevation in Tao Cultivation and power, these Guardian True Spirits had lesser impact on him. Yet, if this endeavor succeeds, his cultivation and power would undergo a tremendous transformation.

Soon, those women entangled with him through numerous karmic ties appeared one after another, including Yi Hongchen, Princess Consort Xiang, Xiang Qingchi, and Lady Qiutong among them.

Except for Du Mengyan, numerous beauties manifested one after another.

These women, each charming and graceful in their own ways, included Princess Consort Xiang and Xiang Qingchi as mother and daughter, as well as some sisters, among which were wives and concubines of Lu Chengfeng’s past enemies.

Yet, having become his Guardian True Spirits, they all devotedly followed him, united in life and death, unwavering and unyielding.

"Roar!"

The Taotie phantom behind Lu Chengfeng roared at the sky, as if wanting to devour all the women in front of it.

"Ladies, your husband needs you, so please lend me a helping hand."
