Cultivating with Bragging System-Chapter 460 - 240: Saintess of Mount Shu: Wang Xiu, Are You Rejecting Me? (7200 words)_1

Chapter 460: Chapter 240: Saintess of Mount Shu: Wang Xiu, Are You Rejecting Me? (7200 words)_1

After a busy day, Wang Xiu returned to his courtyard, lay down on a lounge chair, and closed his eyes.

"All that hustle for nothing!" he murmured, feeling somewhat disappointed. He had been genuinely interested in the grand ceremony. After all, experts from all over were attending, and with such a crowd came plenty of bragging.

It started well enough. With so many experts meeting for the first time, boasting was inevitable—whether big or small, it was all boasting. Wang Xiu had gained quite a bit from it. Not only had his recently achieved Realm stabilized, but his Cultivation Level had also improved significantly.

Gradually, however, he grew frustrated. Everyone’s focus landed on him, and he became the primary subject of the bragging. Someone would inevitably say, "The Sanqing Saint Heir has the disposition of a Great Emperor!" or, "The Sanqing Saint Heir’s talent is a marvel unseen in ten thousand years!" Unfortunately, the System was completely uninterested in this kind of flattery; not even a single prompt appeared.

Being too dazzling isn’t necessarily a good thing, Wang Xiu sighed. He suddenly felt that his happiest days were back when he was just a minor cultivator in the Qi Refinement Realm. No matter where he went, everyone was busy bragging about themselves. Even if the rewards were small and his Mana only increased by a point or two at a time, he had been so happy! It’s time to find a place where no one knows me and stay for a while. With me around, everyone is too embarrassed to brag in my presence!

"Master!" Disaster Brood crawled over. Its feathers were a radiant crimson, shimmering with light. Flames bloomed from its four paws, which were shrouded in a divine glow. It came to rest on Wang Xiu’s legs and transformed into its human form.

As Yan Ji, she wore a dazzling suit of Gold-Threaded Battle Armor that accentuated her stunning figure. Her body gleamed with a crystalline luster, and her clear eyes held a wild, untamed beauty. She lay across Wang Xiu’s legs, tilting her head to gaze up at his chin, looking utterly content.

"I almost forgot, I haven’t fed you today," Wang Xiu chuckled. With a flick of his hand, runes filled the air, releasing streams of golden divine fire that he placed before her.

Ecstatic, Yan Ji lowered her head and began to feast. Soon, the glow around her intensified. Her bright eyes sparkled, and her fiery red hair seemed to burn like a living flame. Her cheeks flushed a rosy red and felt hot, as if she had been drinking.

The Fire of Candleholder was an exceedingly rare divine skill that contained a trace of the true essence of Zhulong’s flame. It was highly nourishing for her. Thanks to these daily feedings, Yan Ji had grown considerably. She no longer looked like a young girl but had matured a great deal. She’s nearly ripe. It won’t be long before she catches up to Senior Jiang Yourong.

Yet, her disposition remained that of a child. Once she was full, she lay on Wang Xiu, licking his palm as if savoring the aftertaste. Wang Xiu had reminded her about this many times, but it seemed to be a hard habit to break. Whenever they were alone, she couldn’t help herself, leaving Wang Xiu feeling rather helpless.

Suddenly, Wang Xiu looked up into the darkness beyond the courtyard. A graceful figure appeared, ethereally beautiful. She wore a flowing purple dress and light makeup, looking like a fairy who had descended to the mortal realm—transcendent and pure.

"Senior Brother!" The visitor was Ji Zidian.

Wang Xiu reacted quickly, patting Yan Ji’s back. The girl pouted but obediently lay down and reverted to her original form.

"What brings you here?" Wang Xiu asked with a light chuckle.

"Senior Brother, when did you leave? You didn’t even call for me..." Ji Zidian clasped her hands behind her back, pouting slightly. Her complaint was utterly charming and adorable.

"I just got back myself. I saw you were all having a lively chat, so I didn’t want to interrupt," Wang Xiu replied casually, motioning for her to sit down.

"Oh..." Ji Zidian pursed her lips, her eyes darting about as if she were thinking of something. After a long moment, she asked, "Senior Brother, do you notice anything... different about me today?"

Wang Xiu froze. His gaze involuntarily dropped to a certain area. The change is so huge, even a fool could spot it.

"Indeed, quite different," Wang Xiu murmured, taking a sip of tea.

"Well... do you like it this way, Senior Brother?" Ji Zidian asked, gently biting her red lip.

The atmosphere in the courtyard instantly grew charged and ambiguous. Even the breeze seemed shy. The young woman’s cheeks were flushed like blood, her full bosom heaving dramatically with each audible breath. Her eyes were fixed on Wang Xiu’s expression, burning with an intense heat.

"I like you no matter what you look like," Wang Xiu replied with a gentle laugh, patting Ji Zidian’s head.

But this was clearly not the answer she wanted; it was not what she had expected at all.

On a sudden impulse, a thought inexplicably popped into her head, and she blurted out, "Senior Brother, would you like to... try?"

What?! What in the world has gotten into this girl? Did she take the wrong medicine today? How could she say something like that? Wang Xiu’s heart pounded in his chest. He had to admit, Ji Zidian’s question packed a powerful punch. There probably wasn’t a single man under heaven who could withstand it.

Ji Zidian slowly drew closer, puffing out her chest. Her mind was a complete blank; she didn’t even know where she found the courage to say those words. But her instincts told her she didn’t want to stop. She had to fight for this, to seize her chance before anyone else did. Otherwise, who knew when some other woman would snatch her Senior Brother away.

The night was silent, the sound of wind rustling through fallen leaves unnervingly clear. The distance between them shrank until they could feel each other’s breath. The young woman’s face was as lovely as a flower, her features picturesque. Every detail was seared into Wang Xiu’s sight. She was like a perfect work of art. She closed her eyes, a budding flower waiting shyly, which only made her more stunning.

Wang Xiu didn’t hesitate for long. He slowly reached out his hand. We’ve come this far. What kind of man would I be if I didn’t make a move?

However, at that very moment, the darkness was shattered by a white rainbow streaking in from the distance.

Wang Xiu’s head snapped up. "Senior Sister Li!"

Startled, Ji Zidian’s eyes flew open, her expression panicked.
