Dual Cultivation In Martial Peak

Chapter 53: Three Young Masters

Chapter 53- Three Young Masters

Xia Ning Chang's eyes instantly went wet, unable to hide the joy and excitement of their long-awaited reunion.

Her face wasn't covered with her characteristic veil, and feeling Su Mu's gentle hug, her face turned red as she was barely able to hold back her tears.

After a minute, Xia Ning Chang looked at Su Mu and asked. "Brother Su, why did you not visit me before leaving for such a long time? You even visited my master, and if it wasn't for Sister Su Yan, I wouldn't even be aware of your arrival."

A few months ago, he had not said a single word of parting, not even leaving a letter!

Xia Ning Chang was naturally hurt, and the thought of Su Mu not caring about her made her sulk.

Smiling slightly, Su Mu patted her head.

"It's because you were close to a breakthrough, and even if I wanted to disturb you, Old Man Meng would never let me do it. Otherwise, how can I be cruel enough to leave without meeting you once?" Su Mu explained, gaining a small nod from Xia Ning Chang.

"So it was all Master's fault?" Xia Ning Chang muttered, looking at Su Mu.

That was not what he meant, but rather than explaining, Su Mu just nodded.

"Indeed, it was."

Oh, Su Mu could already hear Meng Wuya's dreadful cries after being scolded by his daughter-like disciple.

Xia Ning Chang was too easily coaxed! With just two or three sentences, it would dispel her disappointment and grievance, leaving only joy and happiness.

{You enjoy troubling Treasurer Meng a bit too much, don't you think?}

Hearing Su Yan's voice inside his head, Su Mu just smiled at her.

{Causing trouble for people is fun, especially those who are strangely upright.}

"Now that I look around, where are Lan'er and Shuang'er?"

"I thought that you'd stop by our house within the Black Wind Mountains before coming back to the High Heaven Pavilion, so I sent them there in advance." Su Yan replied.

'Her confidence in ordering the Lan'er and Shuang'er has increased a lot.' Noticing that, Su Mu chuckled lightly.

It was a good thing that Su Yan was adapting to her role as his Head Wife, after all, she will be managing a lot of people in the future, so taking an authoritative stance in front of the servants was a good start.

"Ah, right!" As if remembering something, Xia Ning Chang turned towards Su Mu in a hurry. "My Master asked you to visit him after your return, he said it's important, and that Sect Master also wanted to meet you."

"You should visit them once. Maybe it's about the place you wanted to take Little Sister Mei'er and Jiao'er." Su Yan added.

"That should be the base, but..."

"Is something wrong, Brother Su?" Xia Ning Chang asked.

"Since I left without even meeting you, I brought a small present for you, but since I need to visit Old Man Meng and Sect Master first, it'll need to wait." Su Mu looked at Xia Ning Chang, whose face brightened instantly.

"You don't have to" Although she said so, Xia Ning Chang still smiled pleasantly, her eyes bent into a crescent moon, full of cheers and satisfaction.

"It's only a small gift, so there's no need to worry about it." Su Mu reassured Xia Ning Chang, making her nod.

"Then, I'll patiently wait for that gift." Although she was curious and excited about her gift, Xia Ning Chang decided to wait until Su Mu was done meeting Meng Wuya. "By the way, what's your current cultivation, Brother Su? I can't sense it."

"True Element 1st Stage."

"Amazing!" Xia Ning Chang exclaimed.

In such a short amount of time, Su Mu's cultivation has increased so much that he was only one minor realm below her, who was at the 2nd Stage of the True Element Realm.

It was Xia Ning Chang's first time seeing a cultivation speed this terrifying.

"It's nothing much, and your cultivation will also increase because of the gift I brought you." Su Mu said with a smile, confusing Xia Ning Chang, but before she could ask anything, he continued. "Since things here are already decided, I'll go and pay a short visit to Old Man Meng."

Su Mu was also curious about the progress Meng Wuya had made while unlocking his seal.

"Well, then, we'll be waiting for you back at the Black Wind Mountains." Su Yan stated, and Xia Ning Chang nodded.

Su Mu went ahead and gave a kiss to both Su Yan and Xia Ning Chang, much to their happiness, before turning towards the door of his living quarters.

"Well, it looks like the insects have already piled up." After thinking about it for a second, Su Mu turned towards Su Yan. "How do you think the situation would progress from here on?"

"It would be a surprise if they manage to live after you're done with them." Su Yan replied without thinking about it much.

"I won't kill them now, it'd attract unnecessary trouble to the High Heaven Pavilion, and I plan on living here for a while." Su Mu replied with a smile.

'He won't kill them now...' Su Yan understood what he was talking about, but she didn't say anything.

Su Mu started walking towards the door, followed by Su Yan and Xia Ning Chang, and the latter once again covered her face with a veil.

Xia Ning Chang didn't like the idea of someone other than Su Mu seeing her face, so she only removed her veil in his presence.

Opening the door, the three of them walked outside, and unsurprisingly, the guards that Su Mu had knocked out have already been cleaned up.

Outside, they were greeted by a group of people, who were led by three young men who were of a similar age to Su Yan.

The first one was dressed in blue robes, the second one wearing a snow-white robe, and the other was dressed in a luxurious purple uniform.

Following the three of them were a bunch of old men, all at different Stages of the Immortal Ascension Realm, and from the looks of it, it wasn't difficult to tell that these three were Young Masters of some forces within this Small World.

Feeling Meng Wuya's Divine Sense sweeping over the area, Su Mu released a bit of his Divine Sense as well, sending Meng Wuya a telepathic message.

{Old Man, do you plan on just watching?}

This was the base of the function that allowed Long Distance Communication within the Harem God's Cultivation Scripture.

Generally, the distance a cultivator could communicate with their Divine Sense depends on their Cultivation Base, but with the Harem God's Cultivation Scripture, that distance can be increased by a lot, even going beyond Universe Worlds if the practitioners have a high enough Cultivation Base.

{!!!}

In Meng Wuya's reply, all Su Mu heard was a loud gasp.

He understood that Meng Wuya was taken by surprise, and that made Su Mu almost facepalm himself.

Should a Peak Saint Realm Cultivator like Meng Wuya be surprised after receiving a simple Divine Sense Telepathic Message?

{Before you die from the shock, yes, I pre-awakened my Divine Sense, and this isn't something to be so shocked about.}

Pre-awakening of Divine Sense was, by no means, a shocking occurrence.

{You...} Meng Wuya let out a huge sigh. {What the hell is wrong with your Divine Soul Strength? How is it so powerful?}

'Oh, so that's what surprised him.'

Unlike the Immortal Ascension Realm cultivators present here, Meng Wuya, being a 3rd Order Saint Realm Cultivator, could feel the strength of Su Mu's Divine Soul when the latter used it to send him a telepathic message.

And just as Su Mu had said, Meng Wuya could feel his head going light after realising that Su Mu's Divine Soul Strength rivalled that of a 4th Stage Immortal Ascension Realm Cultivator.

{Did you consume some heavenly treasure used to Cultivate one's Divine Soul?' Meng Wuya asked.

{Consumed wouldn't be the correct word, but let's leave it at that. What about the thing I asked?} Su Mu replied.

{If those old bastards try to intervene, this Old Man would intervene as well, but for those small fry Young Masters, this Old Man will leave them to you. After all, you must protect your women with your own strength.} Meng Wuya replied.

To be fair, Su Mu wouldn't mind even if Meng Wuya said he wouldn't intervene, and as far as protecting his women goes, he didn't need someone else to tell him that.

{Suit yourself, I'm sure after I deal with this trash in front of Senior Sister Xia, she would be very pleased and happy.} Su Mu replied.

{Wait! This Old Man changed his mind, let me-}

{Until next time, Old Man.}

With that, Su Mu cancelled the telepathic link, ignoring Meng Wuya's desperate call.

"These are?" Su Mu had no idea who these three were, so he decided to ask Su Yan about them.

"I have no idea." Su Yan replied, her expression neutral as always.

"These are Young Masters from the various powerful families and Sects, starting from the left, the Dong Family's Dong Qing Han, the Bai Family's Bai Yun Feng, and the Purple Fern Valley Fan Hong." The one who explained was the High Heaven Pavilion disciple following behind the group.

"Hmm." Su Mu gazed over the group of young masters, and he had to admit, their talents were all average.

But it didn't look like they were interested in him, as they kept glancing between Su Yan and Xia Ning Chang.

"Indeed, it is as the rumours have said, Lady Su Yan is as beautiful as a fairy, a perfect fit for my Bai Family under the status of my bride."

"Heavens really blessed me when I was sent to the High Heaven Pavilion, to be in the presence of not just one, but two such heavenly beauties."

Su Yan wasn't bothered by these glares, as to her, this was but a regular occurrence, and was able to hide the little disgust she felt, but Xia Ning Chang was different, as she stepped behind Su Mu, clearly disgusted by these three.

And Su Mu changed his mind.

Two of these guys were as good as dead.

Dual Cultivators were possessive by nature, even more so with their partners, and of course, Su Mu was no exception, especially after cultivating the Harem God's Cultivation Scripture, a Secret Art that cultivated the feeling of love between two individuals.

He knew that his women would have admirers wherever they went, as it was natural, and he didn't mind that, because if there's a beautiful woman, there will always be conflict, but talking about taking his woman right in front of his eyes?

Let's just say there are better ways to die.

Focusing a bit of True Qi into his voice, Su Mu asked. "And why are you here?"

Hearing his voice, the three young masters, along with the disciples following them, took a step back in surprise, finally focusing their attention on Su Mu.

From this, Su Mu guessed that it was their first time coming in contact with Qi enhanced voice.

"Are you Su Mu?" The one standing in front of the group, Bai Yun Feng, asked, closing the folding fan in his hands while looking at Su Mu, and from the looks of it, his behaviour couldn't get any more haughty, as the disgust within his voice was apparent.

'A Folding Fan? And it's not even an artifact?' Su Mu had no idea why a man would bother having such a thing, especially when it wasn't even an artifact, much less use it in day-to-day life.

What kind of lifestyle were they going for?

Bai Yun Feng, along with the other two, didn't wish to waste time with Su Mu, as they were more tempted to inquire about Su Yan and the other mysterious beauty, but they had no choice.

Unfortunately, until now no one had found the primary inheritor. However, they were able to find many people who had obtained artifacts and martial skills within Heaven's Cave Inheritance, each one managing to acquire some.

And from what they've heard, Su Mu was one of the top candidates for the primary inheritor, so it was their job to bring him to their respective forces.

And if they couldn't do that, the least they wanted was to get their hands on the powerful Martial Skill that Su Mu had obtained within Heaven's Cave Inheritance, the one he used to kill the Monster Beast in a single strike.

Alas, only if they knew how big of a mistake they were making.

A/N-

Idk I tried my best to not make the 'my woman' part less emo, so...

For the first time, I'll go ahead and write a proper face slapping.

But then again, I might end it in a few paragraphs as I did with Yang Kai's death, and even if I don't, it won't exceed a chapter.

Mc isn't the type to speak too much with strangers who he knows are going to die, too.

Might let the Dong guy (Yang Kai's cousin) survive. Can be useful in Medicine King Valley if Mc ever visits.

Feel free to give any ideas for the Starting World plot, like what to do with the Demon Lord Yang Bai.
