NOVEL NEXT WORLD Chapter 138
Chapter 138: No Exceptions
A half-naked woman in her 40s?
It seems she knows she lacks sexual appeal, as she resorts to spring drugs and soul-splicing techniques to toy with me.
Not that it would work anyway.
Is this how it feels when the acne-glassed pig conquers a beautiful girl using a hypnosis app in a gender-swapped comic?
I felt nauseous. It was like my eyes were rotting.
Back when I infiltrated as a concubine for Moryongsega, I was in my 20s, and I probably learned some Room Techniques, so captivating her wouldn’t have been too hard.
Gradually, I guess I managed to get Moryongsega addicted to drugs along the way.
After seizing control of the house lord, I would have hypnotized the disciples using the app. That’s how she devoured Moryongsega.
Furthermore, through today’s Cheongdam Meeting banquet, she would have made the post-stimulation indicators addicted to drugs and feminine pleasures, turning them into puppets. By holding their weaknesses in the first cycle, in the future, she would pose as the real power behind the Orthodox Faction Martial World’s unofficial organization, the Cheongdam Meeting.
The Lady Gu before me was the real unofficial power in the Orthodox Faction Martial World of the first cycle. In my past life, if it weren’t for Sahyeong, the Hyeolgyo would have swallowed us whole.
“You say this isn’t true Cloud and Rain Pleasure? How could you…using my soul-splicing techniques…”
Lady Gu’s cheek trembled hideously. The thick makeup covering her frown lines shook.
Indeed.
In the future, she may be a master of Hwakyung’s Mastery, an unparalleled expert, and the head of the Five Great Houses, but right now, the post-stimulation indicators here are just inexperienced novices who are barely at the top level.
I couldn’t tell what Lady Gu’s level was, but surely, she could lure them in with her soul-splicing techniques.
This is how she has wrapped the post-stimulation indicators in her skirts until now. She was trying to use the same trick on me and Sahyeong.
The problem was, I wasn’t just any ordinary post-stimulation indicator—I was a scheming villain in my second life!
With a grip on Lady Gu’s wrist, I smiled and said, “Cloud and Rain Pleasure doesn’t simply mean physical coupling. Lady Gu, to enjoy Cloud and Rain Pleasure with just the body, devoid of mutual hearts, is not real Cloud and Rain Pleasure; it’s no different than the base pleasures of beasts. Forcing coupling while clouding one’s reason with soul-splicing or drugs… Do you plan to live like a beast, forsaking your humanity, and indulge in monkey-like pleasures?”
I preached the doctrine of the Color Spectrum while staring at Lady Gu.
Techniques like hypnosis apps and soul-splicing… I could have learned them if I wanted to.
Actually, even among Dongchang’s visions, there were similar techniques to soul-splicing. But even knowing them, I chose not to use them.
Having sex with a hypnosis app? That could hardly be called real sex.
True sex means connecting and satisfying each other’s minds along with bodies. Sex that only fulfills physical pleasure is merely half-baked.
“…What nonsensical words are those? You’re naive. It seems you don’t understand; the mind is merely a slave to the body. If you were to embrace me, you’d forget all that trivial philosophy in an instant. Hohoho. Will you not embrace me?”
Hearing my words, Lady Gu scolded me back, then smiled enticingly.
She shook her chest seductively. It was a horrific sight.
Being ugly isn’t a crime. But if your appearance is ugly and your heart is ugly too…
That’s a sin.
And Lady Gu possessed both an ugly appearance and a corrupt heart—she was a criminal at heart.
“No. I have no intention of wasting my compassion on a middle-aged woman like you. An ugly, old face paired with an even uglier mindset? You have no conscience.”
“Wh-what?! This brat…!!”
Lady Gu’s face contorted upon hearing my words. Her hand shook violently.
“Cloud and Rain Pleasure signifies the harmony of Yin and Yang, and true harmony of Yin and Yang can only be achieved through both the heart and body. Pleasure that is merely bodily without a heart cannot be said to achieve harmony. So please put aside your thoughts of seducing me.”
“…If only your face weren’t so passable, I could have offered you heavenly pleasures and made you my paramour… But how dare you insult my beauty in such a bold manner! Don’t regret refusing a fine wine for a cheap drink!”
Lady Gu’s eyes glittered with bloodlust at my provocation. A fierce energy surged from her entire body.
No matter how one looked at it, she didn’t appear to be some low-ranking martial artist with only defensive techniques—her overwhelming aura suggested she was at least pinnacle, if not unparalleled.
Well, it didn’t matter.
Because I had Sahyeong with me.
I quickly signaled with my other hand. At that moment—
Sahyeong, sitting next to me, became hazy. Flash! With a black flash, he grabbed Lady Gu’s wrist.
“Aaaaaaaaaah!”
“How dare you… How dare you touch someone…”
A voice colder than an iceberg from the North Sea flowed from Sahyeong’s lips.
The focus in Sahyeong’s eyes disappeared, and he gazed at Lady Gu with heavy, lifeless eyes.
An overwhelming black aura surged from him. As he fully liberated his will, an oppressive pressure enveloped the entire top floor.
Good.
That’s our Sahyeong for you. This is why I nurture the Geomseong.
I thought to myself, taking out a whistle I had tucked away and blowing it.
Now I just had to wait for the Heavenly Alliance to secure the perimeter.
*
Yujinhwi bit her lip. Her pupils darkened as Lady Gu’s complete dominance was swiftly established.
‘How dare… How dare that filthy, ugly body seduce my disciple…my disciple…’
Yujinhwi’s heart pounded.
From the moment Lady Gu approached Lee Cheol-soo.
Yujinhwi had to suppress the surging killing intent surging within her with reason. She wanted to rip her apart. How could an ugly old hag dare to place her wrinkled hands upon her precious, beloved disciple?
It was unforgivable.
But she had to endure it.
Her disciple had said so. Not to move until he signaled. As Sahyeong was someone who would listen to anything her disciple said.
The only ally of the disciple—Sahyeong. So she endured.
But the moment her disciple’s signal fell, Yujinhwi could no longer hold back. She wanted to kill. But as she recalled her disciple’s request to prioritize immobilizing her, she barely held on to her reason.
“Do not get too worked up. Hohoho. It’s quite alright for me to be a woman. Especially if it’s someone as stunning as Jin Soso, an unparalleled beauty… Come, be embraced by me. I will give you pleasures men can never provide, only a woman can…”
Lady Gu spoke while looking at Yujinhwi.
But she, too, was panicking. Lee Cheol-soo. The prince among princes. He was notorious for his lewd tendencies. Though he was called a prince, in the realm of promiscuity, he was likely dubbed a Colorful Horse.
In the world of pleasure-seeking, he was openly referred to as the Double-Headed Colorful Sword.
So she thought using soul-splicing would make it easy to seduce him. But it backfired. Instead, he harshly criticized her, calling her ugly and old.
‘O-old? Ugly? I’m merely a mature lady slightly over forty…!’
Already having hit the wall of Hwakyung, Lady Gu had not undergone the Transformation of Flesh and Bone and was growing old day by day at the pinnacle level.
Telling her she was old was like striking at her very core. Yet not only had Lee Cheol-soo hurled such insults, but now he was being subdued by this unknown woman.
One Sword Play, Jin Soso. She had prior intel that her level ranged between pinnacle and unparalleled, which she had gathered through blood sect channels. But really, there was no way she could be more than merely a beginner at the unparalleled level.
That’s why she felt reassured when she planned to seize Lee Cheol-soo first and then deal with Jin Soso. She couldn’t carelessly handle Lee Cheol-soo due to his background with the Gongdong Sect, but taking care of the unmatched Jin Soso, who had no backing, posed no risk.
However, the power of One Sword Play surpassed her expectations. The moment she seized the space, the technique of Gold Nasoo that subdued her was beyond the unparalleled level.
Hwakyung.
Before her stood the Supreme Master of Hwakyung. The very master she yearned to become, who could maintain a youthful visage through the Transformation of Flesh and Bone. Moreover, with her complete dominance over her, it was impossible to use the Demon’s power-siphoning techniques.
Thus, the only remaining option was to seduce her, create a gap, and use her elixir.
Lady Gu licked the elixir packet that hung from her teeth.
In fact, she was a master of Color Technique, who enjoyed Cloud and Rain Pleasure with both men and women and used the ecstasy of absorption to indulge in both male and female pleasures.
If it were a beauty like Jin Soso, it would be a welcome gift.
Yujinhwi’s face hardened at Lady Gu’s words. It was an unforgivable crime for this ugly seductress to lay hands on her disciple! But… now she was planning to make him hers…
It was absolutely unforgivable.
“What nonsense are you spouting…?”
At the moment, the excited Yujinhwi was about to put more pressure on her.
Pfft!
Lady Gu burst the elixir packet with her teeth and spat the spring drug all over Yujinhwi’s face.
Yujinhwi instinctively held her breath, but the concentrated spring drug, refined to an extreme degree, penetrated her skin and surged into her body.
“Ugh…!”
The effect was immediate.
A moan escaped Yujinhwi’s lips. Her body ignited with heat. Her heart raced. She experienced the lust she had suppressed through cross-dressing, now flooding her entire being.
“A-Aah, no…! You…what in the world…”
“Ha ha ha ha ha ha! Now that you’ve taken my spring drug head-on, if we do not share Cloud and Rain Pleasure today, your vital energy will burst, and you’ll die! Even if you’re a master of Hwakyung, there are no exceptions…”
“Shut up!!”
Yujinhwi roughly suppressed Lady Gu’s spirit, who was smirking smugly. Lady Gu, subdued and collapsed on the ground—her evil blood energy and demonic blood energy forced out, unable to speak or even move like a rigid log.
Yujinhwi rose from her position. Her cold reason and burning lust battled within her.
Her body was hot. Her heart felt like it would burst. She was desperate for a drink. Her throat was parched. She wanted to throw herself into him right away.
Yes, him.
The one she cherished above all, the one she loved the most, the one who, even if the whole world abandoned him, she vowed to stand by him—her disciple, Lee Cheol-soo.
In her distorted view, only the figure of Lee Cheol-soo shone brightly. At that moment, Yujinhwi’s reason snapped.
