Top Grade Pure Beauty CEO-Chapter 782 - State Preceptor Second Release
Chapter 782: Chapter 782: State Preceptor [Second Release] Chapter 782: Chapter 782: State Preceptor [Second Release] “Hey, with my bad temper, I’m not going,” he was about to toss the phone aside when, damn it, it rang again.
The incoming number was unknown. Thinking it was the first department calling, Li Xiaoyao pressed the answer button.
“Who’s this?”
“Xiaoyao, it’s me.” Li Zhan’s voice was immediately recognizable, and Li Xiaoyao froze for a few seconds.
Hadn’t he just returned today? Why was he receiving a call already? Could something have happened?
“Patriarch Li.”
Li Zhan said, “Come to Jindu tomorrow. I’ll introduce you to a few friends.”
...
“Okay.”
After hanging up, Li Xiaoyao let out a sigh. It seemed he really had to head to Jindu early; not a single day could pass in peace.
The women didn’t return until late at night. When Li Xiaoyao shared that he had to leave the next day, it naturally led to their reluctant farewells. But there was only longing, no complaints—they understood that Li Xiaoyao was busy and they never interfered.
Li Xiaoyao’s gaze swept over Tang Tiantian, Zhang Meng, and Zhu Xiaoyue. The women were all too aware of the meaning behind his looks.
Standing up and heading towards the bedroom, Li Xiaoyao stopped at the door and turned to say, “Come in.”
The three women exchanged glances, their cheeks flushing down to their necks.
Li Xiaoyao waited for a while, but the women didn’t enter. He muttered to himself: Wasn’t it agreed that we would share the bed next time? Are they tricking me?
“Squeak~”
One by one, the three women walked in, and Li Xiaoyao wore a mischievously bad smile. With a casual wave of his hand, the lights in the room went out.
A gust of wind arose in the room, and the women felt a force lifting them off their feet, eliciting a soft gasp.
Li Xiaoyao casually cast a soundproofing technique, and said with a sly grin, “Here I come.”
A figure pounced towards the three women.
Sharing a bed with three girls simultaneously was an unprecedented experience. Even though Li Xiaoyao was extremely familiar with every inch of each girl’s body, this situation still made his blood boil.
Equally showered with affection, that night was filled with the sounds of a rocking bed and the unrestrained cries of the three women.
The next morning, when the three women opened their eyes, Li Xiaoyao had already left.
Exchanging glances, their cheeks flushed once again.
…
Li Xiaoyao arrived at Jindu at eight o’clock sharp. After contacting Liu Chengxiang, he took a car to the courtyard next to Guyan Palace.
“Knock, knock, knock.” After knocking on the door, it was quickly opened. The person who opened it was Fu Xiaosheng, Liu Chengxiang’s disciple in Jindu, and also an outer sect disciple of Xuan Sect.
“Uncle-Master Li.” Fu Xiaosheng’s admiration for Li Xiaoyao was as endless as the torrential river.
Ever since Li Xiaoyao demonstrated his extraordinary strength and decisive actions at that evening event in Jindu, Fu Xiaosheng had regarded him as an idol on the spot.
“Hmm.” Nodding, Li Xiaoyao entered the courtyard.
Liu Chengxiang had risen early and was practicing his boxing in the courtyard.
Li Xiaoyao glanced at him and sat down on the wicker chair.
Seeing that he had arrived, Liu Chengxiang had no intention of stopping and continued boxing at a leisurely pace.
After completing a set, Liu Chengxiang exhaled a puff of white breath, which formed an arrow and slowly dissipated.
“You’re here?” Liu Chengxiang took a seat and ordered the dazed Fu Xiaosheng, “What are you standing there for? Go make tea.”
“Yes, right away.” Fu Xiaosheng scurried off to make tea.
Li Xiaoyao asked directly, “What’s the matter this time?”
The tea was brought over, and Liu Chengxiang blew on the steam, saying nonchalantly, “There’s a grand gathering in a week…”
Li Xiaoyao interrupted him, “The Xuan Country Inspector Ceremony?”
Liu Chengxiang looked at him in surprise, “How do you know?”
Li Xiaoyao was even more astonished, “You received an invitation?”

“Mhm.”
Seeing him nod, Li Xiaoyao’s astonishment grew. He remembered that Liu Chengxiang’s cultivation level was only at the second tier of the Spirit Cultivation Realm.
Such a cultivation level could also receive an invitation from the number one department?
Liu Chengxiang, seeing his expression, already guessed a thing or two, and said with a chuckling smile, “Do you think I’m not qualified?”
Li Xiaoyao shook his head and said, “It’s just that I heard the number one department pays great attention to the cultivation levels of the participants.”
“That’s the rule for ordinary people,” Liu Chengxiang responded with a slight smile, his tone full of pride, “That kind of rule doesn’t apply to me.”
Quite immodest indeed.
“I am well-versed in Yin and Yang; the state has titled me as the State Preceptor. Every year at the Inspector Ceremony, I am invited to participate.”
“State Preceptor!” This title was not small at all; with the word ‘state’ in front, this title alone was comparable to a Venerable of the Spiritual Realm in Yun Country.
But there was one thing Li Xiaoyao couldn’t figure out, “If that’s the case, how could the Long Family have dared to lay hands on you back then?”
“There are always those who harbor hopes of getting lucky. Had I sent the message back then, even if the Long Family was one of the Eight Great Sects of Xuan Country, they wouldn’t dare to do anything to the Xuan Sect,” Liu Chengxiang said confidently.
Liu Chengxiang’s eyes shifted as he asked, “How did you find out about the Inspector Ceremony?”
Li Xiaoyao spread his hands, “Because I’ve been nominated.”
Liu Chengxiang was stunned for a second, then burst into loud laughter, his face displaying disbelief as if the words ‘I don’t believe it’ were written all over it.
“Boy, you’re blowing your own trumpet too much. The number one department wouldn’t give you a second look.”
Li Xiaoyao sighed helplessly and said, “The Ancient Li Family received an invitation and took me along by the way.”
“The Ancient Li Family… Ah, with that, it makes sense. For this time’s Inspector Ceremony, all thirty-one Ancient Sects have been invited.”
“Not every sect takes the position of Inspector seriously; some sects, indifferent to worldly affairs, casually send two disciples to go through the motions. But most sects value it considerably.”
“Attending the Inspector Ceremony this time, you can take the opportunity to broaden your horizons. It will show you that with your cultivation level, you really aren’t considered much in Xuan Country’s Cultivation World. Having a bit of reverence is always a good thing,” Liu Chengxiang said with a meaningful tone.
Li Xiaoyao rolled his eyes, unsure of how to respond. Did he really come off as arrogant and ignorant of his own limitations?
“Let’s go, have some breakfast. I’ll take you to meet a few people,” Liu Chengxiang said as he stood up.
“Isn’t there a cultivators’ forum we’re supposed to attend?”
“What forum? It’s just a gathering of people meeting up, chatting, and praising each other.”
Fu Xiaosheng wanted to follow, but Liu Chengxiang said, “Go do whatever you’re supposed to do, and don’t join the fuss without reason.”
The two took a car and left. On the way, Li Xiaoyao received a message from Li Zhan, an address.
Li Xiaoyao felt a bit troubled; Li Zhan also said he would take him to meet people today. But since he was currently with Liu Chengxiang, it was clear he couldn’t get away, and it was difficult to refuse either side.
“Where are we going?”
“To Long Xiang Mountain in the western suburbs.”
Li Xiaoyao’s heart stirred, and he looked down at the address on his phone again; it was also Long Xiang Mountain in the western suburbs.
Could it be that Li Zhan was also going to take him to meet these people?
Jindu was very congested, almost at a standstill, and it took the driver a full two hours to reach their destination.
Getting out of the car, Li Xiaoyao found this place to indeed possess beautiful scenery.
It was hard to imagine that Jindu still had such scenic mountains and waters.
