Chapter 114: Demonic Lotus Heavenly Yin
In response to Su Mei’s question, Shi Hao said, his head aching slightly, “I have all the ingredients for the Daoist elixir: the Illusory Sea Spirit Fruit, the Molting Snake Reverse Scale, the Tri-colored Qilin Grass, and the Carriage Horse Mushroom. But for the demonic ritual, I still need the blood of an Undying Child and a matricide’s heart.”
Su Mei smiled, “The blood of an Undying Child should be easy enough to obtain. Or are you reluctant to harm those… children?”
Shi Hao shook his head, “No, it’s just that the demonic sects rarely train Undying Children anymore. Sixty years ago, there was the Blood Child Rebellion, when an elder called the Blood Vine Patriarch used Undying Children to cause chaos throughout the demonic sects.
“The only Undying Child I know of is a trained assassin in the Ghost Extreme Sect, who is likely also at Dragon Head Mountain. As for the matricide’s heart…”
The Emerald Beauty kowtowed, “Young Master, I know how to obtain a matricide’s heart. Leave it to me.”
Shi Hao looked at the small, delicate doll and wondered what sinister methods it would employ.
Su Mei, however, didn’t give him a chance to refuse, “In that case, it’s settled.”
She looked at him, her eyes flickering, “Why do you possess Primordial Energy?”
Seeing Ye Zi Yin also looking at him, Shi Hao asked in surprise, “You know about Primordial Energy?”
Su Mei chuckled, “Of course we do. It’s you, a mere seventh-rank martial artist, possessing Primordial Energy, that’s surprising.”
Shi Hao said, “I discovered it by accident. By circulating my Daoist and demonic energies in opposite directions, I can generate this… mysterious energy. It’s different from ordinary internal energy and has some unique properties. I didn’t know what to call it, so I named it Primordial Energy… I thought no one had ever cultivated it before.”
Ye Zi Yin’s eyes twinkled, “Primordial Energy has existed since ancient times. The first to discover it also didn’t know what to call it. Because it’s so profound and mysterious, and clearly superior to ordinary true energy and demonic energy, they called it Primordial Energy.
“But no one has ever cultivated it as easily as you have. It’s a crucial step for reaching the third rank, requiring one to push their cultivation to the absolute limit, achieving perfect balance between yin and yang, before it can be generated.
“You’re probably the first person in history to possess Primordial Energy before even reaching the high ranks.”
Su Mei, her eyes narrowed, smiled, “The world is vast and full of wonders. Something others struggle their entire lives to achieve, you obtained so easily. It seems dual cultivation of Daoist and demonic arts might truly be capable of achieving the impossible.
“But are you sure about this? If you stay here, you’ll at least survive. If you leave, and you don’t find the blood of an Undying Child, you’ll die within days. Are you willing to risk your life for those two girls and the so-called ‘greater good’?”
Shi Hao nodded resolutely, “I have to leave.”
Ye Zi Yin looked at him approvingly.
Su Mei shrugged, “Very well. Then we’ll use these three days to train you further.”
She looked at Ye Zi Yin, “I’ll take him first. You can have him in six hours.”
Ye Zi Yin didn’t reply, simply turning and leaving.
Shi Hao followed Su Mei through the tilted archway to the partially collapsed palace.
The Emerald Beauty, its small arms outstretched, flew behind them.
Su Mei led him to the second floor, leaving the Emerald Beauty outside the carved screen, and pulled him towards the white jade bed, lowering the gauze curtains.
Shi Hao stammered, “This…”
Su Mei gently pushed him onto the bed and giggled, “What should you call me?”
Shi Hao whispered, “Wife…” He was afraid the Emerald Beauty would hear and attack him.
Su Mei chuckled, “Why so quiet? You weren’t so timid last time.”
That’s because there wasn’t a doll that bites, he thought.
Su Mei said, “Well, at least for now, call me Master.”
Shi Hao said, “Master.”
Su Mei said, “Good boy!” She climbed onto the bed and straddled him.
Shi Hao said nervously, “Master…?” What are you doing?
Su Mei chuckled, “I’ve always wanted a cute male disciple to train and… discipline. Unfortunately, it never happened. Today, you’ll have to do.”
Shi Hao quickly said, “Master, please… behave… Master…” Her movements were making him uncomfortable.
Su Mei leaned closer, her hand caressing his face, and smiled, “In the demonic sects, inheritance is paramount. The bond between master and disciple is sacred. I’m both your wife and your master. Don’t you want to… do something for your master? Or are you not… excited?”
Being both master and wife was indeed… exciting.
But Shi Hao knew this demonic master was playing with him, so he remained cautious.
Su Mei’s delicate hands traced his chest, and he felt a wave of heat surging through him, his body reacting involuntarily.
He gritted his teeth, deciding he couldn’t be so passive. He wrapped his arms around her waist, flipped her over, pinning her beneath him, and, using the Butterfly Flower Finger, began caressing her body.
“Oh my, you’re defying your master!” Su Mei giggled, her breath catching in her throat, then she suddenly shouted, “Little Emerald, bite him!”
A small figure shot through the screen, past the bed curtains, and bit Shi Hao’s shoulder.
Shi Hao cried out in pain… That little doll had sharp teeth.
Su Mei chuckled, “How dare you defy your master?”
She picked up the Emerald Beauty and placed it on the bedside table, “Keep an eye on him. If he misbehaves again, bite him!”
“Yes, Master!” the Emerald Beauty glared at Shi Hao, its small face contorted in a menacing grimace, its tiny mouth revealing sharp fangs… No wonder its bite was so painful.
Su Mei flipped over, pinning Shi Hao beneath her again, straddling him.
She wore a long, crimson robe, less convenient for such activities than a skirt.
Straddling him like this, her legs were restricted, her posture awkward.
Perhaps because of the uncomfortable position, she untied her belt and loosened her robe, revealing a thin, white undergarment that barely concealed her body, the curves of her breasts tantalizingly visible beneath the sheer fabric.
Her slender legs, freed from the robe, wrapped around him, her smooth calves exposed… Traditionally, trousers weren’t worn under robes. They became common later, with the rise of skirts, which, being less restrictive, could easily reveal the legs.
Shi Hao’s gaze, drawn to the point of contact between her legs and his lower abdomen, lingered, and a sharp pain shot through his shoulder… Little Emerald had bitten him again.
“I’m not wearing anything underneath,” Su Mei giggled, lifting the hem of her robe.
Shi Hao quickly averted his gaze… She was deliberately teasing him.
He would remember this. One day, when he was stronger…
Su Mei’s laughter echoed through the room.
She moved the Emerald Beauty aside and smiled, “Now, be a good boy.” She untied his belt, her delicate hands sliding beneath his clothes.
Her beauty was captivating, her robe half-open, draped over her arms, the thin undergarment barely concealing her body, her every move arousing. And she was using the Butterfly Flower Finger on him.
He writhed, trying to escape, but her legs held him firmly, her demonic energy pinning him down.
He suddenly remembered what he had done to Zhuo Mulan. So this was how it felt.
“Master… Master… Wife… Wife, stop…” His body burned with desire, his energy surging, seeking release.
Just as he reached his limit, unable to endure it any longer, about to defy his master and risk being bitten to death, Su Mei, her alluring body sliding downwards, lowered her head.
Shi Hao’s eyes widened, expecting… something, but her soft lips kissed him, not on his lips, but on his lower dantian, just below his navel.
He felt a surge of energy entering his lower dantian, the burning heat within him subsiding, replaced by a pleasant warmth.
Su Mei sat up and smiled, “Done.”
The Emerald Beauty bowed, “Congratulations, Young Master!”
Shi Hao looked down and saw a peach blossom shaped mark just below his navel.
He felt like he had been branded.
But a new, mysterious demonic energy, unlike the energy cultivated through the Mysterious Charm Technique or the Unfettered Demon’s Boundless Art, cool and refreshing, now resided in his lower dantian.
Su Mei smiled, her voice melodious, “This is the Demonic Lotus Heavenly Yin. With this, you are now the official inheritor of the Evil Lotus Sect’s true teachings. Do you know why, even with the scriptures, the three factions can’t advance beyond the fifth rank?
“Because the techniques in the Night Charm Demonic scriptures are all yang-oriented. To advance further, you need the Demonic Lotus Heavenly Yin. And the Demonic Lotus Heavenly Yin can only be bestowed upon the sect leader’s chosen disciple, either through a direct transmission like this, or by cultivating a secret technique from the Secret Canon, a process that usually takes almost ten years.
“Little Emerald is the Keeper of the Canon. Of course, as long as I’m alive, she wouldn’t dare teach anyone the technique for cultivating the Demonic Lotus Heavenly Yin.”
He hadn’t expected her to bestow the true inheritance upon him.
Shi Hao asked, surprised, “Master, is this how every generation of Evil Lotus Sect leaders has inherited the teachings? Isn’t this…” Isn’t this… lesbianism?
Su Mei chuckled, “Don’t misunderstand. This isn’t the usual method. Traditionally, the sect leader chooses an infant, or at least a child under three years old, and raises them.
“As the child grows older, the bond between master and disciple becomes like that of mother and daughter, their hearts connected, their intentions aligned, and then the Demonic Lotus Heavenly Yin is bestowed… not through a kiss, of course.”
She pointed to her forehead, where a similar peach blossom mark could be seen.
She smiled, “Normally, the mark is placed on the forehead. But since your upper dantian contains a Daoist internal elixir, which would reject the Demonic Lotus mark, I had to place it on your lower dantian.
“And do you feel the effects of the Butterfly Flower Finger vanishing? That’s because the Demonic Lotus Heavenly Yin suppresses the Evil Lotus Sect’s techniques, preventing disciples from using them against the sect leader or her chosen successor.
“As for why I had to use this method to bestow the Demonic Lotus Heavenly Yin upon you… it’s because we don’t have that kind of deep, familial bond. Traditionally, the sect leader raises the chosen disciple from childhood, forging a bond of love and trust. Since we don’t have that, I had to use… other methods.”
