Chapter 340: Chapter 336: The Little Trouble Xu Lao Won (9)

Translator: 549690339

Tang Luo observes the four terrified ladies lying feebly on the ground, their fear intensifying, and can’t help but shake his head.

Momentum is a real thing; it exerts an oppressive fear that can immobilize people. After reaching the peak of the Mortal Realm and achieving unity of spirit and intent, the pressure only grows stronger.

If you only cross one realm, this momentum merely chills your limbs, shakes your courage, and does not cause substantial harm. Take an example of Tang Luo against a martial artist in the Mortal Realm.

However, an ordinary person facing Tang Luo, with his full momentum, would become stiff all over. If exposed for a long time, it could even damage their courage, and those with faint hearts may be frightened to death.

The courage is the soul’s dwelling, practicing martial arts is largely about strengthening the body, but also about fortifying courage.

Although there are those in the world who have an innate and imposing courage, capable of directly facing adversity, Tang Luo knows that these four women standing before him do not belong to that group.

If these women had even a shred of courage, then Tang Luo wouldn’t have been able to exert such a vast amount of spiritual energy.

The Coral Rhinoceros, witnessing his master’s excitement, thrusts its massive head towards Xu Lao-Ying, attempting to lick him, but is quickly pushed away. “You’re smelly and sticky, go away!” Xu Lao-Ying forcibly pushes the creature’s head to the side, expressing his disgust.

Feeling rejected by his previous master, the Coral Rhinoceros roars thunderously twice in protest.

The double roar causes the guards at the front of the Tang mansion to turn white with fear. If these warriors, with their spiritual cultivation, react this way, imagine the effect on these four ladies. Tang Luo glances down to see the women, under the threat of the roars, grimacing as if ready to burst into tears.

If initially, it was a fear of death, now it was pure terror invoked by the Coral Rhinoceros. Upon turning a blind eye any further, these four ladies, unversed in martial arts, may have their courage shattered by the beast’s momentum. Tang Luo shakes his head and tells the beast tamer, “Take the Coral Rhinoceros away.” After all, Xu Lao-Ying’s intent is to preserve the ladies’ reputation, not to scare them to death.

As the Coral Rhinoceros exits, Bie Meng is the first to regain her composure. Facing Tang Luo, she fiercely accuses, “Tang Tianjiao, what a strategy, picking on us weak women, don’t you feel ashamed!?”

Having been a disciple of the Beast Taming Sect, even after establishing their own family, the Bie clan has always considered the members of the Beast Taming Sect as their own. If there was a family in Xiling who had a profound understanding of mythical beasts, it would undoubtedly be the Bie family.

Having been influenced from childhood, even the least competent of them, like Bie Meng, had absorbed a wealth of information about mythical beasts. This Coral Rhinoceros isn’t an ordinary mythical beast but one that carries the divine bloodline. Although it has maintained the appearance of its species, the seven-colored Divine Light emanating from its unique horn symbolizes it as the offspring of a Divine Bird.

The Divine Bird has the inherent ability to exert an intimidating aura, causing all mythic beasts to submit when it spreads its colorful feathers. Hence, the intimidation released by this Coral Rhinoceros is something that Bie Meng, who hasn’t even completed foundation building, cannot withstand. It’s only due to the beast’s immaturity that they haven’t died of shock.

Intimidating people with the descendant of a Divine Beast, Bie Meng was absolutely unconvinced.

“So because you are weak, you should be accommodated? Xu Gongzi’s steed is a descendant of a Divine Beast, should he switch to a mule horse to accommodate you four?” Tang Luo disdainfully retorts, “Which is why I say you are a burden. As followers, yet wanting the master to accommodate you, what use are you?”

Surprised to find her complaint being attacked, Bie Meng flushes with embarrassment, her chest heaving with indignation. She desperately searches for a counter-argument.

As the Coral Rhinoceros leaves, Pan Xi-Chang finally recovers from the beast’s intimidating aura. She grinds her teeth and protests, “We are pursuing Xu Gongzi not to lead his horses. Are followers expected to cohabit with their master’s steed!?”

In the end, the young mistress of the Pan family cannot bear to lose hope. As long as there is a ray of hope, who would willingly choose to die? Since Tang Luo has laid out the conditions, she decides to refute him, as she has discovered that Tang Luo’s attitude represents Xu Lao-Ying’s attitude.

Rather than pleading with Xu Gongzi, it’s better to defeat Tang Tianjiao. At present, a fire named fighting spirit flashes in Pan Xi-Chang’s eyes, “Wan Ling’er can only accept the bet for herself, she is not qualified to represent me. Her inability to touch the descendant of a divine beast just proves that she is not qualified to pursue Xu Gongzi. What does this have to do with me?” “Furthermore, many of the martial artists present could withstand the aura of the Coral Rhinoceros. So, do you think if they touch the descendant of a Divine Beast, they can follow Xu Gongzi? Tang Tianjiao, don’t you think this approach is rather arbitrary?”

Wan Ling’er had just recovered from the pressure of the Coral Rhinoceros when she saw the lady she regarded as her elder sister ruthlessly shoving her away, drawing the line between them. This sudden betrayal crushed her heart. She could hardly believe that Xi-Chang, who yesterday professed they should serve Xu Gongzi well together, today would so callously discard her.

Her courage not yet fully recovered, the little princess of the Wan family, takes another blow. She wobbles and coughs up blood, then faints.

Pan Xi-Chang took a quick glance then turned away. Bai Jie and Bie Meng glanced at the faint Wan Ling’er with regret in their eyes but remained silent, not saying a word.

When the Wan family’s maidservants carried the unconscious Wan Ling’er back into the palanquin, Pan Xi-Chang looked up at Tang Luo and gritted her teeth, “Maybe we cannot do what martial artists could do for Xu Gongzi, but we can provide care and affection no one else could match!” As she spoke, she lifted her chest, forming a curving arc with her ample bosom in coordination with her slender waist, it was a sight too tempting to resist.

In Xiling, where commerce thrived and social attitudes were open, the subject of men and women was regarded candidly. But they had never imagined that a distinguished young lady would make such a provocative gesture in public, causing men to become excited. Whistles erupted from the crowd with countless swallowing sounds, even the breathing of some became noticeably heavier.

What a beautiful woman, capable of captivating a city, a nation- coupled with extraordinary identity. The current Pan Xi-Chang seemed to gleam with light.

Yet Xu Lao-Ying didn’t even lift an eyelid, showing no interest.

Having seen all kinds of women whilst roaming the pleasure quarters, he would be confounded only by genuine affection; mere seduction posed no allure whatsoever.

Perhaps such bodily charms would work on lower-class martial artists or wandering martial artists, but for the young masters of noble and established families, isn’t this a joke?

However, he couldn’t find it in himself to blame them. After all, aside from a good background and luck, these ladies had nothing else. Pressed to this point, apart from their beauty, what else could they leverage? Xu Lao-Ying had a flicker of pity in his eyes and sighed softly.

However, Tang Luo, seeing Pan Xi-Chang’s movements, approved wholeheartedly. He found a woman’s efforts to fight for what she wanted quite beautiful, “I think you make a valid point..” It’s just that she doesn’t understand that even if we were to talk about beauty, she falls short, he laments, “Have you not realized, even if we’re just talking about beauty, you wouldn’t measure up?”
