Cultivation Simulator: Starting From The Empress' Palace

”Who?”

Hua Wuyi’s eyes locked, and with a flick of his wrist, three silver needles shot out from his sleeve.

”Clang, clang, clang!”

With three crisp sounds, all the silver needles were knocked down mid-air by the True Qi that had left the body.

”Who goes there?” Hua Wuyi, twisting his wrist, somehow produced a folding fan, his gaze warily sweeping the surroundings.

Suddenly, he squinted and spotted a figure, flicking his folding fan, it opened like a sharp circular blade shooting out.

With a thud, the decrepit roof above was cut in half by the fan, sending up a cloud of dust, and after a spin, the fan returned to Hua Wuyi’s hand.

As the dust cleared, Hua Wuyi’s face changed. A Black Shadow burst through the white smoke. He used the folding fan as a weapon, and after pressing some sort of trigger, five sharp blades emerged from the fan bones, directly stabbing at the Black Shadow.

But in the next moment, the shadow suddenly vanished. Before Hua Wuyi could react, he sensed something behind him, but it was too late. He was struck, sent flying into the air, and then came crashing down, hitting the ground heavily and becoming disoriented.

As he tried to get up, the person who had just knocked him away appeared instantly in front of him, putting a foot on his back and forcing him back to the ground, eating the dust.

”Pah, pah...” Hua Wuyi spat out the sand and grit from his mouth, laboriously raising his head to glance at the person standing on him.

The figure was tall, dressed in white robes, exceptionally stunning, currently looking at him leisurely, appearing no more than in their early twenties.

”Se... senior, please... spare my life.” Realizing he was no match, Hua Wuyi hurriedly begged for mercy, then said, ”Junior Hua Wuyi, known in Jianghu as the Skilful Flower Monarch. I don’t know the senior’s name? If I’ve offended in any way, I hope the senior can be lenient.”

But Chen Mo didn’t acknowledge him, directly severing his tendons and sealing his cultivation with True Qi to prevent his escape.

Hua Wuyi howled in pain, unable to comprehend how he had offended this person, endured the agony, and said, ”Even if senior wants me dead, at least let me understand why.”

”You broke the law.” Chen Mo said plainly, ”In the dead of night, conducting acts of theft and violation.”

”What?”

Hua Wuyi, hearing Chen Mo’s words, at first thought it was some kind of joke.

Breaking the law?

In today’s world, the number of lawbreakers is countless.

He even considered himself nothing compared to murderers, just having spent a night with a woman, for which he would even offer compensation afterward.

However, he didn’t hold the say here, and he dared not mock Chen Mo, so he asked in a low voice, ”Is senior from the Imperial Court?”

Chen Mo didn’t respond but waited for the people from the Government Office to arrive so he could go back to sleep.

As for how Hua Wuyi would be dealt with, he left that to the local Government Office.

Just as Chen Mo was looking for a place to sit down.

”Hot, so hot...”

Chen Mo heard a faint voice nearby.

Chen Mo turned his head and was somewhat taken aback; wasn’t that Cao Xiyue?

Earlier, when he was on the merchant ship, he had seen a portrait of Cao Xiyue.

Chen Mo suddenly realized, wasn’t this Jianghe County? Previously, Xin’Er had told him Cao Xiyue was the daughter of the County Magistrate of Jianghe County, Cao Benyuan’s daughter.

Chen Mo saw Cao Xiyue tearing at her clothes, now exposing her snow-white shoulders and collarbone, her shoes kicked off at some point, her feet curling on the ground.

He hurried over to check, finding Cao Xiyue’s body burning hot.

”What’s happening to her?” Chen Mo asked Hua Wuyi, who wasn’t stubborn and replied, ”It’s a special aphrodisiac made by the Poison King, once taken, any virtuous woman turns wanton...”

”Where’s the antidote?” Seeing Cao Xiyue clinging to him, tearing at his clothing.

”There... isn’t any.” Hua Wuyi said, believing there was no need for an antidote to such drugs, wasn’t he the antidote himself?

So after the Poison King gave him the drug, he never sought out an antidote.

”Quick, give it to me.” Chen Mo commanded, not believing him.

At this point, Cao Xiyue clung to him like a seductive snake, wrapping her arms around his neck and nibbling relentlessly.

”Senior, it’s really... not here. If you don’t believe me, search yourself.” Hua Wuyi spoke with a teary tone, secretly mocking, both men, why act like a gentleman with warm fragrance and soft jade in arms, besides Cao Xiyue ranked among the top beauties he’d seen.

Too bad, lucky bastard...

Indeed, Chen Mo didn’t consider himself a righteous gentleman, but Cao Xiyue was a proper lady, unlike Yue Yuxi and Ji Xi’Er with whom he had enmity, and this was their first meeting, besides, she wasn’t even conscious...

Chen Mo pushed her off his body and infused her with his True Qi, slowly forcing out the spring poison.

Yet during the process, Cao Xiyue was quite restless, clinging and holding tight to him, even giving him a proper biting.

Fortunately, as the spring poison gradually got expelled, Cao Xiyue calmed down, her body temperature quickly lowered, and she slowly regained her senses.

And seeing this, Hua Wuyi was stunned.

Not even eating the meat presented to him, is he even a man?

Too bad Chen Mo’s body blocked Hua Wuyi’s view, so he couldn’t enjoy Cao Xi’Er’s disarrayed appearance.

In her frenzy, Cao Xiyue’s clothes had become tattered, barely covering anything.

Her face flushed a deep red, her mind in chaos, tear stains at the corners of her eyes, though she lost her senses, she was still conscious.

She remembered everything that happened before, not missing a thing.

Facing this man here, she kissed and hugged him again and again, finding it hard to believe it was her doing that before.

As Chen Mo finished his work, Cao Xiyue sneaked a peek at him, for some reason, the sadness in her heart lightened just a little.

”Thank goodness...” she murmured internally, unsure what she was relieved about.

”Quick, quickly...”

”Hurry up...”

At this moment, chaotic footsteps sounded outside the broken temple, and Cao Xiyue saw a blaze of light outside.

”Sir, Chief Constable, there’s someone in the temple...” someone shouted loudly as they rushed in.

Cao Xiyue let out a scream.

”It’s Miss, sir, Miss is inside...” they quickened their pace.

The reason Cao Xiyue screamed was that her clothes were shredded, exposing her body, and if they came in, she’d be too embarrassed to live.

As she panicked and felt helpless, Chen Mo said, ”Wear mine.”
