The Carnation Goddess

The training courtyard of the outer court was actually very big and it had many pavilions, trees and many places to rest.

Elder Li Hong smiled wryly, "From this day onward to the day of the experiential training, all of you shall remain in this place. I want all of you to have a sense of crisis and bonding when you are forming your teams. So hurry and make new friends. As for us, we won't interfere in what you are doing because we won't even be appearing in this courtyard except to deliver food to you. If you want to shower or pee, please use the facilities in here!"

When she had said all of this, she had actually left.

Shen Lie was startled: That means that I can't leave this place for 1 week. This and with the experiential training, it means that I can't see Saintess Sheng Feiyan, Nangong Shu or Hua Zixia for 2 weeks?!

Shortie Lai whispered to Shen Lie as he interrupted his thoughts, "Look! These new protégés are all forming their groups now. Shall we make some friends and form our new group of friends first?"

Shen Lie laughed gently, "Don't worry. There will be 10 groups and eventually 1 group will have 18 cultivators. Even if we don't do anything, we will still have a group…"

"Then this group won't be a group of our choosing. We need a group with all the beauties in it!" Shortie Lai laughed softly.

Shen Lie gasped, "A group with all the beauties in there?"

Beside Mei Xuan, there were also the two coyly twin sisters Xu Shaoqing and Xu Shaoxing and other beauties in the cohort.

Shortie Lai was now pulling him around.

Many were either practicing the Holy Pinnacle Swordplay, their foundation profound arts, family profound arts or were making friends.

This outer courtyard actually had many places which the protégés could use as their training chambers and they could hide their family profound arts; many of the new protégés were actually from the other celestial clans and many were even the great scions from these celestial clans. As the Holy Maiden Sanctuary was the holy land of these celestial clans, everyone considered it their honor to join the Holy Maiden Sanctuary.

As everyone was now dispersed, Shen Lie and Shortie Lai began to search for the beauties group to join.

Soon along the corridor, they saw Mei Xuan with Xiong Ba.

But when Xiong Ba and Mei Xuan saw that it was actually Shen Lie, they had a most disdainful look and in front of them, they began to be intimate with their bodies and kissed with their lips.

It was as though they were saying to Shen Lie that he had no chance with them and could only watch.

Mei Xuan was giggling, "Look, look whose is here. They are Shen Lie and Shortie Lie…"

Xiong Ba began to laugh too and he had purposely turned Mei Xuan butt to face them before he flashed her short skirt by lifting it up so that they could see Mei Xuan's thin black panties as he fingered between her two legs…

Shortie Lai hummed coldly as he pulled away Shen Lie, "Let's go elsewhere! We don't need this group!"

Shen Lie was protesting, "Actually we don't have to be in such a hurry. We got 1 week to form our group…"

Shortie Lai shook his head, "You are too young, too simple! Can't you see that they are already forming their own alliances today? If we wait until the last day then it will be too late! Therefore we must find a group to slot ourselves inside so we can pass the experiential training to remain in the Holy Maiden Sanctuary."

Shen Lie asked curiously, "To remain in the Holy Maiden Sanctuary? What do you mean?"

Shortie Lai stared at Shen Lie, "You mean you did not know that you will be expulsed if you can't pass the experiential training?"

Shen Lie shook his head quietly, "I don't but this isn't too hard to pass, right?"

Shortie Lai looked shocked, "You and me can't even aim properly. In a melee with the desolate beast, we will surely die! If we can't find a strong group then we can only find a weak and a pig team. That will be a complete disastrous for us!"

Shen Lie smiled, "I don't think so…"

Shortie Lai began to pull Shen Lie along with him, "Follow me brother!"

Shen Lie protested weakly, "Brother Shortie Lai… don't be too impatient…"

Soon, they had come to a chamber and saw the two coyly young maidens Xu Shaoqing and Xu Shaoxing and they were with Chu Feng.

However their clothes were all scattered on the ground.

Right now, they could see that the twin sisters were naked with Chu Feng and they were copulating in secret inside the chamber.

Shortie Lai was startled to see this and he was sighing, "All the beauties are taken by these influential young masters… we don't stand a chance now…"

Shen Lie rolled his eyes, "I say Brother Shortie Lai, you do not seem to be looking for a powerful group but a group with many beauties…"

Shortie Lai chuckled weakly as he pulled Shen Lie to whisper to him, "During the experiential training, all these young maidens will be offering their bodies to us for protection. This is our only chance to take advantage of them…"

Shen Lie stared at Shortie Lai with some disdain, "Farewell Brother Shortie Lai!"

He quickly hastened his steps to lose track of Shortie Lai.

But as soon as he had turned a corner, he saw a beautiful maiden with a hood over her and she had also happened to look in his direction.

This maiden was actually Jie Ying and she always had an icy look. However her beauty was not beneath Mei Xuan and could even be comparable to Hua Zixia if she did not always display an ugly and icy look.

"So it is fellow protégé Shen Lie." With that she had already turned her face around, unwilling to look at Shen Lie anymore.

Shen Lie was actually surprised that Jie Ying did not display any look of disdain on him so he laughed softly behind her, "Why is such a astonishing beauty hiding in this corner? Shouldn't you be forming your own group and to practice the Holy Pinnacle Swordplay?"

Jie Ying answered softly, "This is none of your business."

Shen Lie said gently, "But if a great beauty is to lose her beauty because of some unhappiness, then this is my business. Why don't you share with me and maybe I can help you?"

Jie Ying appeared to be jolted as she turned to look at Shen Jie with a bitter smile, "My father the sect leader of the Crescent Moon Citadel is saddled with 10 000 high grade spirit stones in debt and I will be marrying someone that I do not love soon. Can you help?"

Shen Lie pondered for a while before he took out a piece of translucent jade, "This spiritual jade is worth 1 million high grade spirit stone. You can have it. As for marrying someone that you do not love, erm… I am afraid that I won't be able to help you."

When Jie Ying saw the translucent jade, she was shocked!

This was the luminous spirit stone that Shen Lie had shown her and each one could be exchangeable only for 1 million high grade stones!

And in the black market, it could even be worth much, much higher!

A luminous spirit stone was higher in grade than the low grade spirit stone and the high grade spirit stone!

Not only that, if a cultivator could have luminous spirit stone to cultivate for their breakthrough, it would increase their chances of a breakthrough.

But the problem with the luminous spirit stone was that it was far too rare and only the richest cultivator would even have one!

Jie Ying was trembling now as she stared at Shen Lie, "This… is really for me? Is there a condition? Such as…"

She had suddenly become very flustered all of a sudden as she could imaging Shen Lie touching all over her while banging her hard.

Shen Lie gently put the luminous spirit stone in her hands and said, "Don't worry. I still have plenty of these. As long as a beautiful maiden such as you are happy again, I will be glad too. Farewell."

With that Shen Lie had hastily walked away for he wanted to get away from Shortie Lai as far as possible.

Jie Ying stared after Shen Lie as she muttered, "What sort of background does he have in order to be able to freely give away a luminous spirit stone without any condition?"
