World of Cultivation - Volume 06 - All Hail Our King
Page 102
So their morale was low until Wang Shen revealed his idea and they raised their heads.
Wang Shen became more excited and said, "Xiao Mo Ge is powerful, and we naturally are not opponents in martial power. However, we have our own advantages. Xiao Mo Ge is just a brutish fighter. Would his fist be enough to break through the sky? We are of noble birth, well mannered and cultured, and have mobei, what does he have? His fists? When did we ever have to fight other people with our own fists?"
These young masters were all smart people and their eyes brightened.
Right!
When were they ever forced into a situation where they had to fight against other people themselves?
They competed in terms of their father's status, wealth, servants, and family prestige, when did they ever compare based on their strengths?
Wang Kun said with a cold smile, "Shen Yu thought too highly of himself. The heir to the Shen Family was stupid he went to fight against Xiao Mo Ge! A body that is worth a thousand gold should not put themselves into danger! We are all worth our weight in gold, very valuable. Isn't it stupid to smash ourselves against trash clay pots?"
"Brother Wang is right!" The people praised. This spoke to their hearts.
"This little brother has just realized this and has come to discuss with everyone," Wang Shen said modestly. His tone changed and he said, "Since we understand our advantage, then it is easy. The three princesses want to recruit Xiao Mo Ge but he is just one expert. However, if all of us unite, the power that we represent is not something that Xiao Mo Ge can compare to. I believe with the intelligence of the three princesses, it will not take them any effort to realize this!"
"Yes, yes!"
"Yes!, What is Xiao Mo Ge, can he compare to us?"
The people started to grumble.
Wang Shen waited for the noise to die down slightly before immediately following up with, "But we cannot just speak and not act, who will believe us? We need to show our muscle. Everyone, return and send letters home! It is easy to find an excuse. Just say that we are pursuing the princess, and the princess is show slight favor. However, there is a strong enemy and we need the family to send strong reinforcements. Everyone should be very skilled at this, and I do not need to waste my energy speaking on the specifics."
When the people heard this, their eyes were aglow.
"Brother Wang is peerless in intelligence! This idea is very good!"
"Brother Wang has a clear plan. This one admires you! And once the Great Peace Treasure Pavilion appears, the old people in the family will not be able to sit still!"
"Yes, even more importantly, we did not lie! Haha!"
A thread of smugness flashed through Wang Shen's eyes. "When the experts from everyone's families gather, I believe that we can exterminate Xiao Mo Ge with a little finger!"
Everyone roared with laughter. When they imagined that scene, they felt extremely good.
Suddenly, someone suggested, "Why don’t we ally together and swear to kill Xiao Mo Ge!"
The people agreed.
Wang Shen was overjoyed inside and said gravely. "We are all the young masters of our families, and have come for the princess. Why don't we call ourselves the Gentleman's Flower Protecting Alliance, what does everyone think?"
Everyone nodded. This name was accurate.
With this The Gentleman's Flower Protecting Alliance was formed.

"I need to know your plan," Nanmen Xue said.
"Naturally," the mystery male said, "according to our information, there is a set of conditions to open the Great Peace Treasure Pavilion. Even now, we do not know what the conditions are, but Shi Yue Yi should know. Therefore, we have been observing Shi Yue Yi. However, he has Yu Shuang and Chang Yuan Hao with him and increased the difficult of this task. We have still managed to obtain some information."
"What did you learn?" Nanmen Xue asked in a deep voice.
"Shi Yue Yi seems to be very interested in Xiao Mo Ge."
"That is normal." Nanmen Xue had a scornful smile on his face. "Xiao Mo Ge was able to defeat the Peacock King Plume and there are many people interested in him."
"No!" The mystery male was not angry. He shook his head and said, "Xiao Mo Ge was able to cause the Shifting Star Sands but what most people did not notice was that the place where he caused it was the Mo Skill Steles."
"This does not mean anything," Nanmen Xue said.
"Qi Diao Yu noticed," the mystery male said, "and the woman next to Xiao Mo Ge also noticed. The two met at the stele where Xiao Mo Ge had caused the Shifting Star Sands and had a fight. It is a pity that we were not able to hear what they said."
"So you feel that Xiao Mo Ge is the key to entering the Great Peace Treasure Pavilion?" Nanmen Xue said.
"He is the most likely Shi Yue Yi's target," the mystery male said.
"What do you want me to do?" Nanmen Xue was straightforward.
"You will go challenge Xiao Mo Ge," the mystery male said.
———
Zuo Mo's brow creased. In the past few days, he had been pondering how to obtain information from Princess Xia about Xiao Guo and Li Ying Feng, but even now, he did not have any good ideas. He shook his head. He could only act according to the situation.
When the servant of Princess Xia saw Zuo Mo, they came forward to welcome him and said respectfully, "The princess has been waiting a long time for Sir."
Finishing, the servant led the way.
Following behind the servant, Zuo Mo secretly asked Pu Yao and Wei.
"What solutions do you have?"
Pu Yao said coldly, "It would be best if you do not think of trying to hold her hostage. The An Wei family will have arranged for a very powerful expert to guard every generation of princess."
"Then what?" Zuo Mo asked helplessly.
"Think of a way to move her," Wei suddenly said.
"Move her?" Zuo Mo was stunned by this way of thinking.
Wei did not reply and Zuo Mo looked at Princess Xia.
Princess Xia was lazily reclining on the sedan. There was only a light layer of silk on her body and what was underneath could be barely made out. Her left hand was propping up her chin, her waist and behind drawing out an arousing curve that caused people to uncontrollably swallow.
When had the innocent Little Mo Ge ever seen such a scene. His face immediately turned red and he stopped in his steps.
However, he quickly composed himself and repeated in his mind
–This was war!
Raising his head, his eyes imperceptibly flickered across the surroundings. As expected, in the shadows close to the sedan, there was a female attendant standing silently.
Zuo Mo's heart shook. This middle-aged female attendant was most likely the expert that Pu Yao had spoken off. When he paid attention, Zuo Mo noticed that the middle aged attendant did not have any presence. If Zuo Mo's gaze did not see her, then he would have been unable to detect her.
An expert!
Zuo Mo did not dare to move rashly.
"Sit."
The lips parted and soft words that softened one’s bones came out.
This was war! Zuo Mo recited to himself as he sat down.
"You are very nervous." Princess Xia looked amusedly at Zuo Mo. The plump and white wrist was propping up an extremely beautiful face whose eyes were full of feeling.
"Hahaha, no no," Zuo Mo laughed. His mind turned furiously. Move her, how could he move her?
Princess Xia smiled and looked interestedly at Zuo Mo.
Zuo Mo did not know what to say and remained silent.
The room suddenly quieted and the atmosphere became awkward.
In his sea of consciousness, Pu Yao and Wei heartlessly bombarded him.
"You need to speak, speak more, form a connection, do you understand?"
"A Zuo, you cannot move women by doing this! You need to speak more."
"So embarrassing! Too embarrassing! How can I have such a student as useless as you? You are
n't even able to talk to a woman!" Pu Yao was furious.
"A Zuo, this is a one in a thousand chance!" Wei led on.
"Say what?" Zuo Mo said helplessly.
Pu Yao and Wei's voices stopped.
A moment later, Pu Yao raised his head and said with a furrowed brow, "Weather? Hobbies? Outlook on life? What do women like? Right, Corps Commander was a woman, what did she like?"
Wei also had a pondering expression. "What did Master like the most … … let me think … … wait! I remember!"
"What?" Zuo Mo and Pu Yao spoke at the same time.
"Fighting!" Wei's face was excited. "What Master liked the most was fighting! Fighting, endless fighting! Master once said that only fighting could cause her to become excited, only by fighting would she feel that she is different from the common rouge! Oh, but what is a common rouge?"
"It describes women that are unacceptable." Pu Yao explained with a profound expression.
"Is Princess Xia one of the common rouge?" Zuo Mo asked.
"Of course not!" Pu Yao and Wei answered at the same time.
Zuo Mo immediately realized and nodded vehemently. He said murderously, "I understand!"
Translator Ramblings: AKA the Spoiled Young Masters Alliance. Zuo Mo doesn't know how to talk to women because he seems to treat them like another species.
Chapter 610: Drink Wine
Princess Xia looked at Xiao Mo Ge who had a nervous expression on his face. Surprised, she felt interested. The people around her were all young masters, and which one of them wasn't experienced with women? How long had it been since she had met such a virgin?
Thinking about when she was a child and about the innocent faces around her that did not have fierce desire and thoughts of consuming her. Back when there was only the innocence of childhood, and they were her playmates.
But then, everything changed … …
A certain soft place in Princess Xia's heart seemed to be lightly touched.
"Are you afraid of me?" she asked lightly.
Zuo Mo who had just opened his eyes and was preparing to utter a challenge had his words forced back by the other's soft words.
His eyes widened. "Afraid of you?" Zuo Mo did not understand why Princess Xia would have such a strange idea. Did Little Mo Ge look like a cowardly person?
"You are not afraid of me, why don't you look at me?"
Princess Xia's words caused Zuo Mo's prepared words of, "Come, let's have a fight!" to be swallowed back.
Zuo Mo found that he could not keep up with the other's thoughts. Oh, why couldn't he look at her?
He opened his eyes wide and then stared at Princess Xia.
So beautiful … … that … … this feeling … … why would he think of swallowing … …
An illusory spell!
Zuo Mo shook.
Princess Xia saw Zuo Mo's change and couldn't help but burst into laughter. In that moment, she was very attractive and her smile seemed to light up the room.
Zuo Mo was almost unable to move his eyes away and his breathing rate increased.
Just … … just an illusory spell … … you want to defeat Little Mo Ge … … but … … so powerful … …
"Come taste this Night Draw Wine, this is a famous vintage in the mo world, and can rival the Granny Meng Ghost Wine. It is a pity that I only have one bottle. After drinking this, you cannot ask for more from me." Princess Xia poured wine for Zuo Mo with a smile. Her skin was as white as snow, and as fine as porcelain. Her body was slightly tilted towards Zuo Mo and the deep valley in front of her chest seemed to have an unusual power that caused people to unconsciously sink into it.
Zuo Mo felt a wave of heat rise from his lower half. His mouth was dry and he had a strange feeling.
Such a powerful illusory spell!
It was even more powerful that the illusory spells that the paper crane girl had cast in Wu Kong Mountains in the past!
Was this her attack?
Determination flashed across Zuo Mo's eyes.
How could a true man not receive the move?
Without another word, Zuo Mo secretly cast a [Bone-Crushing Obscuring Flash] with his left hand as he picked up the Night Draw Wine with his right hand and drank all of it.
When the wine entered his throat, Zuo Mo couldn't help but pause. The taste of this wine was completely different compared to the Granny Meng Ghost Wine. The Granny Meng Ghost Wine was as hot as fire, and burned like a ball of flame when it entered his throat. This Night Draw Wine was cool and light, reaching directly into his mind and making him unspeakably comfortable.
The taste wasn't bad?
The illusory spell hadn't been broken?
Princess Xia laughed lightly, "Your rough gulping is suited to drinking the Granny Meng Ghost Wine but not to the Night Draw Wine. Sip, and let the wine swirl around your mouth before slowly swallowing it. Try it, the feeling of the wine will be different."
Finishing, Princess Xia picked up the wine cup. Her eyes were slightly closed, and her gentle and seductive red lips contrasted against the snowy white porcelain.
Zuo Mo lost focus slightly.
But he quickly raised his alertness and focused. He copied princess Xia and took small sips. When the Night Draw Wine swished a few rounds around his mouth, an unique fragrance spread into his body. In this moment, it was as though he was soaking in cool water, so comfortable that he almost groaned.
"So comfortable!" Princess Xia closed her eyes and said as though she was talking in her sleep, "When I was young, I liked to drink Night Draw Wine the most. Daddy didn't like me drinking so I sneaked into Daddy's wine cellar. One time, I accidentally drank too much and fell asleep in the wine cellar. When Daddy caught me with the goods…"
She poked out her tongue like a child that had been caught doing bad things by her parents.
"… he sealed the wine cellar. Even now, it hasn't been re-opened. Now, no one knows that there is a wine cellar there."
"I really miss the time when Daddy was here."
There seemed to be something flashing through Princess Xia's eyes. She suddenly raised her face and threw back all of the wine.
Putting down the wine cup, her cheeks were blushed and her eyes were dazed.
"What bad things did you do when you were little?"
Zuo Mo could feel the sorrow and longing in Princess Xia's words. It was like when he thought of the sect leader and the shishu. But it was not something that he could state aloud here. Hearing her question, he shook his head, "In childhood? I don't know."
"You don't know?" Princess Xia was surprised by this answer.
"My memory was erased and my appearance has been changed, I don't know anything about my past." Zuo Mo replied truthfully. Originally, he hadn't wanted to say it. While this was something that did not have to be kept a secret, he did not want to casually tell other people. However, Princess Xia's reminiscing seemed sincere to him, so he spoke of it.
"Ah!" princess Xia covered her mouth, her expression shocked. She hadn't expected it to be such a terrifying answer.
"Sorry!" she said, full of apology.
"It's nothing." Zuo Mo shook his head unconcernedly. "In any case, I don't remember it."
"It is not a bad thing to not remember." Princess Xia smiled slightly and then poured a cup for Zuo Mo. "Sometimes, it is cruel to remember."
Zuo Mo drank the wine all in one gulp. Even though it was better to sip it slowly, he liked drinking it in one gulp better. This made him feel it was very exhilarating. Princess Xia's words touched him. He thought of the phrase "do not forget" that frequently appeared in his dreams and a hint of bitterness rose.
"However, it is crueler to forget things what one doesn't want to forget."
Zuo Mo poured a cup for himself and drained it.
Princess Xia stilled. She almost couldn't believe that this was something that this innocent youth said. She slowly pondered this and her thoughts wandered. Her mind wandered in this moment.
Moments later, she smile
d brightly and raised her wine cup. "For this phrase, drink!"
Then she copied Zuo Mo to drained the cup in one gulp. When she put down the wine cup, her cheeks were flushed red, and her eyes blurred. Her appearance was slightly disheveled and it added even more attractiveness.
Her eyes moved and it became a flirtatious look. Princess Xia looked at Zuo Mo and said lightly, "I'm very curious what you have come to find me for?"
Zuo Mo was slightly tipsy at this time and had long thrown Pu Yao and Wei's words to the back of his mind. When he heard Princess Xia's words, he did not avoid it and said directly, "I have come to beg Princess for two people."
"Which two people are worth you coming to make a request?" Princess Xia looked wryly at Zuo Mo.
"Two of my xiuzhe friends. I heard that Princess Xia saved them so I come to request them from Princess." Zuo Mo did not avoid Princess Xia's gaze and said seriously.
"Xiuzhe friends?" Princess Xia was slightly astounded. "I hadn't thought that you actually had xiuzhe friends. Yes, I had picked two female xiuzhe previously, you have good information sources."
The last word carried some flirtatiousness, and the eyes were glimmering.
"I coincidentally saved another friend," Zuo Mo said honestly.
"So you wanted to lure me here?" Princess Xia had amusement on her face when she looked at Zuo Mo.
"Yes." Zuo Mo docilely admitted.
"Are these two female xiuzhe very important to you?" Princess Xia asked.
"Very important," Zuo Mo nodded and said without hesitation.
Princess Xia covered her mouth and giggled, "So you like female xiuzhe. If this news goes public, many female mo's hearts will be heartbroken."
Zuo Mo choked on the words.
"Haha, let's continue." A hint of mischievousness flashed through Princess Xia's eyes. "I can give them to you but I had planned on using them as maids. Now that I give them to you, what benefit can you give me?"
"Speak!" Zuo Mo's expression was serious. Even though he was greedy in personality and liked to bargain, he did not have any thought of bargaining on this matter.
"Can I first think about it? Have you owe me a favor? When I think of something then, I will tell you?" Princess Xia had a sly expression.
