Magic Sect of Beauties: The Strongest Mage is in a Cultivation World

Chapter 147: Sun Yurong’s Attraction to Yang. Arrival at the Dragon’s Peak Mountains Range, Everyone Must Be Vigilant!

It was as if the whole bad acting scene had never happened.

Matriarch Venomheart was now comfortably seated on an intricately decorated wooden throne, with Sun Yurong calmly making tea beside her. She leaned back in her chair and asked, "So, about this Wu Mingyu... you're not going to tell me anything?"

Sun Yurong smiled as she expertly strained the tea leaves into the cups. "Why would I know more than I should about my disciple?" she replied, her tone calm.

Venomheart rested her head on her palm, giving Sun Yurong a sidelong glance. "I find it strange that a rogue cultivator just waltzed into this sect out of the blue without any clear info on who they are or what they're after. Don't forget why this sect was founded and why we're training all these young women, okay?"

Sun Yurong's expression turned serious. "Of course, how could I forget?" she responded sharply. "It's so they won't have to suffer like my children and I did... on that day." She looked like an unpleasant memory had stained her mind.

Realizing she had touched on a sensitive topic, Venomheart changed the subject. "Anyway, Matriarch Fangblade should be at the Dragon Blossom Sect by now," she mentioned.

Sun Yurong's mood lightened. "Ah, she's going with Madam White Snake, right?" she asked.

Matriarch Venomheart nodded. "And Chief Elder Chen," she added.

Sun Yurong frowned slightly. "I find it surprising that Matriarch Fangblade chose Chen Yuxi over me as an escort. After all, I was the one that brought this opportunity," she commented.

Venomheart shook her head. "There's a clear reason for that," she explained. "Among all the chief elders, only you and Gu Yen have what it takes to calm our disciples when they meet those from the Dragon Blossom Sect. It's one of the reasons why either you or Gu Yen are being considered as the next Sect Master."

Finally, Sun Yurong finished making the tea and handed a cup to Venomheart, who accepted it calmly. "Thank you," she said, taking a sip.

Sun Yurong took her own cup and remarked, "Becoming Sect Master would be a good position, but it might not happen if we manage to reconcile with the Dragon Blossom Sect."

Matriarch Venomheart nodded, her grip on the cup tightening slightly. "We should keep an open mind in case things go wrong," she replied. "After all, Liáng X?nyuè holds full power in the Dragon Blossom Sect, and she won't be seeking peace."

As they discussed, Yang Wei remained seated, gazing ahead with a smile on his face.

I'm curious about how everyone back at the sect is doing. It's been nearly two months since I saw them last. I should go visit Lin'er, and catch up with Sh?jie, Zhenwei, and Tianyu... I bet they've all been missing me, haha! And then all those Outer Sect disciples eagerly awaiting some of my divine wisdom.

Suddenly, Lu Lin and her followers walked past him, muttering about "that indecent woman" again.

Yang Wei turned to Lu Lin and asked, "Excuse me? What did you just say?"

"I'm sure you heard me right," Lu Lin proudly turned to face Yang Wei. She then continued, "It's a painful surprise that a woman as classless as you would dare drag the Star Disciple spot with I, Lu Lin, the illustrious..."

Completely confused, Yang Wei raised an eyebrow. "Lu Lin?" he repeated. "Sorry, who're you?"

This left Lu Lin and her followers in shock. "You would dare claim not to know who I am?!" Lu Lin exclaimed.

Yang Wei yawned, dismissing her importance, and turned his attention back to the clouds ahead. "Not in the slightest," he replied casually.

It totally made sense why Yang Wei didn't know who Lu Lin was. He hardly bothered about anyone in this sect since most of them were cut-sleeve. He wasn't interested in spending his time on such women.

Honestly, just the idea of it grosses me out... Sigh~

Lu Lin clenched her chest and gritted her teeth, seething with anger as she glared at Yang Wei. But realizing she had nothing more to say, she stormed off with her followers to another part of the lotus.

"You'll pay for this!" were her last words.

Meanwhile, Sun Yurong took a small sip of her tea and then gestured to Yang Wei, saying, "Mingyu, come have some tea with me~"

At Sun Yurong's invitation, the other women present scowled fiercely at Yang Wei.

"How does she get to sit near Chief Elder Sun!"

"Chief Elder Sun must really like her!"

"Just our luck, why can't life be fair!!"

Yang Wei frowned and glanced at Sun Yurong, sensing trouble.

This woman has been nothing but stress lately. Doesn't she know how many women in this sect are in love with her? And yet she'd dare call me out to come have tea with her...

Sun Yurong's smile widened, her eyes taking on a feline glint. She stared somewhat seductively at Yang Wei.

Yang Wei then looked at Sun Yujing, who was giving him an equally furious glare, as if she could incinerate him on the spot.

Even her daughter's furious... wow, big surprise... tch!

Clearing his throat, Yang Wei declined politely, saying, "Chief Elder Sun, I regretfully have to decline. I wouldn't dare to sit near such beautiful women, especially lacking as much enlightenment as I do." Now, his acting was absolutely superb. Enough that everyone present could buy it.

Sun Yurong placed her tea on the table, crossing her beautiful, luscious, pearl-like legs gracefully. "Oh, don't worry about that," she assured him. "Even the matriarch is curious about you." She glanced at Matriarch Venomheart, who confirmed, "Indeed. I'd like to know more about our new Star Disciple."

Upon hearing this, Lu Lin piped up, "Matriarch, what about me? I'm also a Star Disciple!"

"Sit down and be quiet," Venomheart silenced her with a single command.

Lu Lin complied, her hands trembling and her face showing the toll of the insults she'd endured.

"It seems the matriarch isn't interested in your Star Di--"

Before Gu Yen could finish her words, the red-hot Gu Zhi said, "Shut up!"

Gu Yen nodded silently, returning to her knitting.

...

Now, Yang Wei found himself seated uncomfortably close to Sun Yurong, their bare shoulders brushing against each other. He sighed, eyeing the teacup and saucer in his hand, feeling the weight of everyone's hateful stares.

Why do these women have to be so competitive... I'm just sitting near her, ugh...

Sun Yurong leaned in closer and asked, "Aren't you going to compliment my new attire?"

Yang Wei gave her a sideways glance and mumbled, "Uh, yeah, it's... fantastic." His words lacked sincerity, evident to everyone present. He didn't even take a good look at the beautiful red and peach dress Sun Yurong wore.

Sun Yurong chuckled, teasing, "I was expecting something about how it brings out my curves and makes me look younger." Her flirtatious smile angered the others, their gazes practically shooting daggers at Yang Wei.

Yang Wei sighed, muttering, "Don't make life difficult for me, woman..."

Sun Yurong laughed softly, insisting, "Oh, I would never." She playfully poked Yang Wei's cheek, enjoying his persistent frown.

Meanwhile, Matriarch Venomheart whispered to Sun Yurong, "I thought you weren't into women?"

Sun Yurong took a sip of her tea, meeting Venomheart's gaze as she replied, "Of course not. There's just something about this one I like."

Venomheart nodded in understanding.

Just then, Deng Rulan exclaimed, "It seems we've reached the Dragon's Peak Mountains Range!"

Sun Yurong set her tea down and rose to her feet, declaring, "Everyone, this is the territory of the Dragon Blossom Sect, so stay vigilant." Your journey continues on m v|l--NovelBin.net

In unison, the disciples responded, "Yes!"

Now, the true confrontation was about to begin.
