Chapter 62 Shame On You!
It was very important to Xue Yan that Victor could get the ancient Emperor's inheritance, he would not only benefit but also gain prestige in the Dark Moon Temple, if she right now bestowed a holy son status upon him, many would be dissatisfied with her decision.
He was not known to anyone in the sect, he had no merit or deeds for the sect, so it was understandable that many would be dissatisfied with her decision, questioning:
"And what if he has a divine physique, in cultivation is important not only talent but also perseverance."
Simply put, he had no connections with any members of the sect, so it was understandable that he would be treated with wariness and perhaps even scorn in the hearts of people. This was something Xue Yan wanted to avoid at all costs and luckily at this crucial moment the opportunity presented itself.
With the inheritance he would not only gain fame among the disciples of the sect but also raise the prestige of the Temple of the Dark Moon among all the higher sects, it was a win-win.
"Sect master, what reward would I get if I secure the inheritance?" - Victor smiled slyly, glancing over her lush body.
Xue Yan warily looked at Victor, it seemed to her that his eyes were like a hungry wolf.
Her heart quickened at the mere thought of what Victor wanted from her.
"Since I confessed to the master, you have not given me the opportunity to get close to you, so I would like to do to you what lovers do. It would be the best reward I could wish for."
Xue Yan was stunned. She never expected this man to be so brazen.
Her face turned beet red once more and her body trembled slightly.
She knew what that meant, and knowing full well what he was talking about she was stunned by his intentions.
"Ah… I haven't said yes yet." - Desperately she mumbled, now her appearance didn't suggest that she was a respected master of a higher sect, but rather a bashful girl.
"I understand the master, but we need to make the first step, don't we?" - Victor said confidently.
'In what relationship the first step is sex…' She frowned.
Despite the fact that she had never had a relationship or close contact with men she knew approximately how a relationship should go, the first step was a date... But, Victor immediately decided to move on to the last step.
It was something she could never have imagined.
Biting her lip, her eyes seemed to be filled with ripples, her heart was completely broken, every time was having a conversation with Victor it was like being rocked on a swing. It was both pleasant and unnerving.
But soon she shook her head.
"That's impossible! Even if I said yes."
Victor was too weak relative to her, their cultivation levels were too far apart, he was like an ant compared to her and if they attempted to have an intercourse between them the outcome would have been disastrous. As you know the distance between the cultivation bases should not exceed a realm and if that happened whoever was below the cultivation base of their partner would explode during the intercourse.
'What am I even thinking…' Embarrassedly, Xue Yan lowered her head.
Looking at the way Xue Yan's face constantly changed expression from usual cold to embarrassed and sometimes even dreamy, Victor was at a loss for words.
'What is this woman thinking about?' The reward he wanted from her was quite simple.
A date.
He wanted to get close to her and find out exactly what kind of woman Xue Yan was, he wanted to find out through the date whether he should get close to her or not, if it was not worth it he would just keep her at a distance and if it was worth it he would not mind having such a woman in his life.
"I can't agree to that! The distance between our cultivation bases is too great and if you try to sleep with me you will die!" - There was no telling where Xue Yan got the strength to say such words.
The palace fell into silence.
Looking at Victor, who was silent all this time, Xue Yan thought he was offended by her refusal and was saddened.
'Shouldn't I be offended?'
But she couldn't imagine that Victor was silent just because he was stunned by her words. The words she spoke were like a tsunami that swept through his heart; the shock was too much.
'What the fuck?!' Victor didn't understand how she came to that conclusion in the first place; there was not a hint of sex in his words...
Because of his "Dual Cultivation" skill, he knew the limitations between the realms and didn't crave her body so much that he was willing to die for it.
"Ahem," coughed Victor.
"Master, actually I meant a date." Victor said embarrassedly, if she didn't understand what he was talking about he had to tell her in detail about it.
"This apprentice wanted a chance to spend time alone with his master. It would be the best reward I could wish for."
'He meant a date ?!' Xue Yan was very embarrassed; at this point she wanted to find a hole to burrow into.
Shame.
It was the most embarrassing situation of her entire life.
Looking at his mocking gaze, she felt helpless and humiliated.
"Ahem, if you mean dating, I don't mind!" - She nodded, trying to get rid of the awkward situation, but it was impossible to get away from it.
At the same time she sighed with relief, Victor didn't seem to desire her body, as she initially assumed he did, and all he wanted was a chance to start a relationship as lovers. She felt sweet and pleasant at heart and had a little anticipation of what would happen on the date.
"Master, but if that's what you want, then I won't make you wait long!" - Victor said seriously, looking at her lush figure, he would be lying if he didn't have the desire...
'That rascal…' She was thrown off balance by Victor, with a wave of her sleeve she threw him out of the palace.
As soon as she chased Victor out of the palace she crouched with her arms around her legs.
"Victor really is a reckless man, how dare he speak such insolent words in my presence."
"But even I..."
"I'm not such a cheap woman..."
Xue Yan stomped her foot bashfully.
