Gaining a New Nickname
The person at Xue Bai's door was a familiar face, but it wasn't one he liked.
Standing at the door of his courtyard was the ex-owner of this courtyard, and the person that Xue Bai very nearly killed out of anger, Lin Fu.
"Hello, Prince Consort." Lin Fu awkwardly said as he tried to force a smile on his face.
Now that Xue Bai's identity had been revealed, Lin Fu had been living in fear for the past week. Thankfully it seemed that Xue Bai wasn't the petty type, so Lin Fu was able to continue living.
However, after his first interaction with Xue Bai, Lin Fu swore never to interact with this walking calamity again.
But to his anguish, his Master had forced him to go back to this calamity and relay a message. If not for that, Lin Fu would rather stay with the Grey-Robed Students than come back here.
"Stop wasting my time and speak your mind!" Xue Bai once again shouted, bringing Lin Fu back to reality.
Xue Bai was already in a less than joyful mood since he had been taken away from his cultivation time, yet now this arrogant fellow was still wasting his time!
'Does this idiot think my time is worth nothing?!'
"I also didn't want to come here, Prince Consort." Lin Fu answered with resignation in his tone.
"I don't care for your emotions, fool! Tell me why you're here so I can continue with my day!" Xue Bai had no care for this man's plight.
This person had tried to maim him just for stealing his courtyard. If Xue Bai cared about him, he would be an idiot.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtEnraged at how Xue Bai was belittling him, Lin Fu's facial expression darkened. But after he remembered that a Xiantian Great Realm demonic beast was only a few meters away, and Xue Bai's odd powers, he forced himself to calm down.
"Prince Consort, my Master, the Head Instructor for the Black-Robed Students, is calling every Black-Robed Student to gather at the Academy's gates. A secret realm has appeared, and someone of your talents is required to be in attendance." Lin Fu humbly spoke as he tried to stop himself from puking.
Acting so subservient to a man who had tried to kill him was making Lin Fu's insides churn. But since his Master had told him to do so, Lin Fu tried to force the feeling down as much as he could lest he puked out his breakfast.
"Do I have to come out?" Seeing Lin Fu try and act so amicably made some of the annoyance in Xue Bai's heart fade away, so trying to reciprocate, Xue Bai spoke politely to the man.
However, since Lin Fu said that all of the Black-Robed Students would be coming, it meant that the people entering the secret realm would have cultivation bases up to the peak of the Qi Sea realm like Lin Fu in front of him.
Coupled with Xue Bai's position in the Empire, it would mean that almost every single student entering the secret realm along with him would be against him.
And fighting against every single top-tier Black-Robed Student in a random secret realm he had no knowledge about was not the way Xue Bai wanted to spend his weekend.
Sadly, Lin Fu came prepared and shut down Xue Bai's request.
"I'm sorry, Prince Consort, but you'll have to come along with us. Not only my Master but also the Academy Head wants you to come along to this secret realm." Lin Fu shook his head with a smile.
"Weren't you arrogant before! You'll still have to obediently follow me in the end!' Seeing Xue Bai finally have his arrogance put down a little, some of Lin Fu''s anger was avenged, and he felt better.
Of course, he was still hoping that Xue Bai would come along to the secret realm so that he would have a chance to kill the gigolo and completely wash out the fear and anger in his heart, but Lin Fu was patient.
Revenge had to be taken step by step. Rushing to the last act would only make his plans and scheme stay in his head, never to be fulfilled.
Hearing those words, Xue Bai sighed before nodding. Though Feng Hai had no control over him, Xue Bai still felt some obligation to help the man out with some basic things. Of course, this didn't mean that Xue Bai would ever sacrifice himself for the man, but if Feng Hai only wanted him to join a secret realm, then Xue Bai could get behind it.
Besides, going into a secret realm was a good chance for Xue Bai to get some long-needed life and death tempering.
And while it could be slightly dangerous to go into a secret realm somewhere blindly, Xue Bai was fully confident in his survivability. So in his mind, this voyage would just be another day at the park.
After Xue Bai agreed, Lin Fu's humble face vanished and returned to his usual haughtiness before he turned around with a wave of his robes.
"Follow me then, Prince Consort. I'll show you where you need to go." Lin Fu laughed as he started walking to the Academy's gates.
Nodding slightly, Xue Bai walked out of his courtyard and followed the man, but before he could, a tired but luscious voice came from behind him.
"Xue Bai, what the hell are you talking so long for? Hurry and come back!" Liu Mei yelled out once she noticed that Xue Bai had been gone for so long.
Immediately Lin Fu and Xue Bai's expressions changed after Liu Mei spoke those words.
Lin Fu had a look of awe and worship since he knew who the woman in Xue Bai's courtyard was, while Xue Bai had veins popping on his neck and face.
'He's riding a Xiantian Great Realm demonic beast!'
'This damn woman is using such easily misunderstood words!'
When Xue Bai cultivated using the Soul Sublimation Golden Lotus, like what happened at the Soaring Sword Sect with Zhu Que and Xiao'er, Liu Mei would sit nearby and absorb the Spiritual Qi that Xue Bai didn't, or rather couldn't absorb.
And just after a week of sitting by Xue Bai, Liu Mei could already feel her cultivation slightly advance.
Of course, it was nowhere near the amount she needed to break through a stage. After all, she was in the Spirit Expansion realm, but still, even mosquitos had meat. Plus, Liu Mei was doing Xue Bai a service but making sure he didn't die from Spiritual Qi poisoning by making sure the mist never got too thick.
So once Xue Bai was brought out of his cultivation state by Lin Fu and was forced to get off of the Soul Sublimation Golden Lotus, Liu Mei was forced to wait for his return.
And while it was true that Xue Bai hadn't refined the treasure yet, due to his poor cultivation and that she also could've gotten on the meditation mat herself and powered it up, Liu Mei thought Xue Bai would get angry at her and didn't.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmBut now that Xue Bai had been gone for almost 5 minutes, Liu Mei started to get both curious and annoyed at what was taking him so long.
As for her sultry voice, Liu Mei genuinely talked like that when it was just Xue Bai and her. And while her choice of words could've been less innuendo-filled, Liu Mei was a rather innocent woman and couldn't understand the underlying meaning in her words.
All these poor factors together perfectly built the beautiful misunderstanding that Lin Fu was now caught in.
Now with a face that matched most beets, Lin Fu blushed and turned around, leaving Xue Bai alone to deal with his angry lover.
While Lin Fu was at the peak of the Qi Sea realm, he was still only a young man still with his pure Yang, so when he heard Liu Mei's sultry voice, he couldn't help but blush from it. Not only that, but he also felt a lustful heat roam down his body.
However, he didn't dare even imagine anything inappropriate for fear that Liu Mei could somehow read his mind. So before his worst imagination came true, he left the scene.
"Prince Consort, surely you know where the Academy's gates are, so if you'll excuse me, I'll allow you to go back to your companion, who is awaiting your services." And before Xue Bai could truly prove his innocence, he left.
Even resorting to using a movement technique to leave faster, Lin Fu had no desire to stay any longer.
Liu Mei was a demonic beast in the Xiantian Great Realm, for heaven's sake. He had already disturbed her once. Doing it again was just courting death!
Xue Bai wasn't dumb and could very easily see through Lin Fu's thought process, but the man had already run so far away, and honestly, even if Xue Bai tried to explain his way out of this situation, it wouldn't work.
So rather than try and lie his way out, it was just better for Xue Bai to wear it with pride.
'That Liu Mei!'
Of course, this didn't mean that Xue Bai wasn't angry at the bird, so after scolding her for a few minutes and taking the Soul Sublimation Golden Lotus away from her, he left her alone.
This time hopefully, for a long time, as after promising Xue Bai, Liu Mei couldn't leave the courtyard without his permission.
"Xue Bai! I'm sorry, take me out!" Liu Mei cried out like an abandoned wife who was watching her husband leave her for a younger woman.
And since Xue Bai had already walked a distance away, Liu Mei didn't bother lowering her voice, and to his further anger, her cries were heard.
It was on that day that Xue Bai gained the moniker the Playboy King for being able to seduce not only the Monarch Feng Fei but also a Xiantian Great Realm demonic beast.
His life in the Gen Empire was going great!
