“Come to think of it, big sis and I also set the auction for the jade slips for next month” walking down the hallway towards the library of the floor he’s currently in, Wu Xiaotian paused for a moment as it is only now that he remembers the most important part of his big money-making operation with Hua Xian’er is also starting next month, hence he decided to use his phone to contact Hua Xian’er, asking to meet in the library once he confirmed that she’s not doing anything in the moment.
He also asked the empress-like lady to bring Li Yan and Hong Lian along, hoping that they might be able to input anything that can help in improving this money-making business more, however, once Li Yan heard about it from Hua Xian’er, she just smiles ambiguously and decided to refuse the invitation, dragging along Hong Lian with her under the guise of ‘exploring the city’, all while privately messaging Wu Xiaotian to do his best, confusing the young man.
Hence bring us to this currently awkward situation, a young man and woman averting their gazes from each other all while talking about ideas that can help improve their business plans, the lady blushing and the young man getting embarrassed whenever they catch themselves staring at each other, every time prompting their minds to remember what happened between them previously.
Struggling to forget the image of the two of them and what they did that day, the two failed to make any sort of progress regarding their business project, the conversation eventually dying down to silence, with Hua Xian’er eventually leaving after a while of silence between the two of them, not hearing anything even when she’s already out of the library.
Looking at the figure moving away, Wu Xiaotian smiled wryly as he never expected that he will ever have a problem dealing with a woman in this world given how he successfully dealt with multiple women, young and mature, cold and warm, multiple times already.
After the incident, he tries reading multiple times, but every time he’s about to enter a focused state, something would suddenly feel wrong, as if there’s something scratching his heart.
Letting out a sigh, he pulled his phone out of his spatial ring, tapping on the screen it is projecting until he finally reached a specific screen, Hua Xian’er’s name on top of the screen.
Opening up the keyboard, he decisively typed something, sending the message he wrote without even checking it, hoping that the empress-like lady will see it.
“Big sis, do you mind exploring the city with me tonight?”
Meanwhile, the empress-like lady is already in her personal room in the floor of the tower she’s currently in, her face buried in a large pillow, her legs flailing around violently, groaning as she never expected that she would find herself acting like that in front of her sworn brother.
‘Hua Xian’er, are you crazy!? Why can’t you just forget about that and talk with him normally!??’ she berated to herself while letting out weird sounds, like some little cat hurt by something and wailing for help.
‘He must be thinking that I am so rude right now’ the thought appears in her mind, making her movements stop altogether, as the fact that she just leaves Wu Xiaotian like that starts to sink in, making her feel quite a bit of guilt. Experience more content on
Before she starts wallowing on said guilt though, she decided to take out her phone, deciding to contact the one person that she thinks knows Wu Xiaotian better than she do.
Before she could contact the lady though, a notification pops up from her screen, a message sent by the very same person she just avoided, making her panic a bit, hesitating whether to open his message or not.
Curiosity got the better of her though as she eventually decided to open the message sent to her, making her smile like a kid as she read the words in the message.
With shaking hands, Hua Xian’er managed to type a reply and sent it, after doing this, the shame eventually overwhelmed her as she quickly hides the phone in her spatial ring as if she’s afraid of seeing Wu Xiaotian’s reply.
Humming like an excited little maiden, she starts going through the closet she never opens, revealing her alluring body with her underwear being the only thing covering her as she changes from clothes to clothes, trying to find an appropriate attire for her and her sworn brother’s meeting tonight, what she’s currently doing making her extremely feminine, to the point that even her parents might think that she’s not the real Hua Xian’er.
———-
While the empress-like lady is taking her time trying to find the right dress for tonight, Wu Xiaotian is still reading in the library even after he receive her reply of agreeing to his request, the young man now able to focus more, the scratching feeling in his heart not that much anymore.
As he read across all materials in the library, particularly the ones regarding the general information within the continent, he was quite surprised as he found out so much more than the combined knowledge he got from the stories of his mother and grandmother as well as the experience he got from his adventure outside, the feeling he got from knowing all these new things as if he’s stepped into a so much bigger world.
One such example being the amount of high-level forces within the continent, particularly the ones with Intermediate state Ascension Realm cultivators or higher in them, reaching more than sixty factions, the Imperial Family from the central province as well as the Heavenly Secret Tower itself excluded from that list given the difference between them and those high-level forces.
In addition to that, Wu Xiaotian also learned that there are numerous secret realms hidden within the land, varying from vestige of Body Integration Realm cultivators up to the inheritance of Celestial Level cultivators, each one of them noted in detail within one of the books he read, their time of opening, the duration until it closes again, the location of said secret realms, and even detailed map of some of them, increasing his opinion towards the Heavenly Secret Tower even more. fɾēewebnσveℓ.com
What he thought is the most significant thing he learned today though is the fact that the Heavenly Secret Tower is aware of the existence of otherworlders and other people with a main character templates, their names listed in a document, right next to their name a tag and note on where to find the documents relating to each of those individuals, each of the documents about them extremely detailed, the only thing making it a bit annoying is the fact that the information about these people is only updated once every two months.
“I can definitely use that to improve the flow of information here even more” he muttered to himself as he thought of one of the greatest dual edged invention of mankind on Earth, the internet, planning on using its concept to revolutionize information transfer of this world, introducing it to the Heavenly Secret Tower, but decided to keep that idea for now as the sun is already starting to set, and it is about time he and Hua Xian’er meet.
