Chapter 65: Senior Dragon - The ultimate manipulator!
However, as soon as she entered the room... A loud explosion occurred.
Booommmmmm!
Kaboooooommm!
Xian Tian, Lady Yun, and Lady Xing were instantly alerted.
They immediately summed the clothes made out of magic and got out to check...
Poor Li Cheng couldn't join the fun due to disturbance, she was also angry, as she stomped her foot and rushed outside to check what was going on.
Other members of the Sect were also outside looking for the cause of the disturbance.
The open area with few buildings was instantly lively with people discussing what was that loud noise as everything looked well... nothing seemed to have been destroyed in the sect.
"What was that?"
"It makes no sense... What was that noise?"
"Hmm? Everything is perfectly well..."
No one knew what caused the sound but everyone knew the sound came from nearby.
'Senior Dragon... Do you feel something?' Xian Tian asked.
Hmmm! The sound? Oh, that came from underground... There is a labyrinth underground that just shook due to the light earthquake which caused that loud explosive noise.
'Underground labyrinth?' Xian Tian was shocked.
Correct! This sect tho declined had a rich and old history, and all are buried deep down... Maybe you should go and check, you will obtain lots of ancient martial arts, spiritual arts, alchemy books, and other knowledgeable books.
'Ooh! Doesn't that mean, we can recover the sect to its glory state?'
Sigh! Are you stupid? What's the point of sharing the rewards with the sect? If I have to be honest, monopolize all the rewards... The best you can do is share it with your Sex Slaves.
'You mean Dao companion?'
Same thing!
'But why should I monopolize it? I can easily master the martial arts and spiritual arts... Won't it be helpful to help others?' Xian Tian remained confused about why shouldn't he help others when getting treasures.
And what will you get by sharing? Praises? Fame? The Path of Dao is something you move alone without putting trust in others, the best you do is only help your companions... There is no point in doing goodwill to others.
Xian Tian pondered the words of the dragon, 'The Senior Dragon is quite greedy...'
The dragon chuckled and replied. I'm a dragon... What do you expect me to be? Kind and generous? Pfft!
Xian Tian chuckled back, 'The senior does have a fair point, I shouldn't help without getting anything in return,'
Of course, I do. I am intelligent after all... Muhahahaha!
The dragon replied laughing menacingly.
'Then I should probably find a way to reach the labyrinth, that way I can lay my hands on treasures...' Xian Tain was a greedy person too who wants riches and bitches.
However, he does possess sharing heart, where he believes humans in general should grow together
Yet, the dragon's influence has turned him into something he isn't.
Indeed! It's very deep down there, you need to be careful otherwise the elders would be alerted.
The dragon warned because the labyrinth with loads of treasure is 1000 feet below the ground, and without causing any sound and alerting others... It's hard to reach there.
'Should I ask help from Lady Xing and Lady Yun?'
Of course, No! Never ask for help from women... They can't keep secret.
'But aren't they supposed to be my Dao companion now? I believe they will be happy to help me,'
And? You think that's enough reason to trust? Life doesn't run like that. Haha... They will be happy to help you? Don't make me laugh, they will be happy to obtain treasures.
'B-But...' Xian Tian was wordless.
The dragon continued to speak in his deep, sinister voice. Trust no one, young one. Women are only after your treasures and riches. They are not to be trusted, do you think they care about your heart, your feelings? hmm, you aren't a kid anymore. If you couldn't provide them with good yang essence to cultivate, they would have never looked at you.
That's why they want to bear your children, that way they can tie themselves with you... Lady Yun is a widow, so she may not leave you but Lady Xing? She can just return back to her husband.
She even betrayed her husband, someone who loved her, someone whom she spent lots of years and you think she won't betray you? What makes you special?
Don't forget she has a daughter, the same age as you... Sometimes you gotta think with your brain and not with your dick.
She likes money and riches, when it comes to treasure, she will surely betray you.
Think with a logical mind... Do you think they care about your feeling or your dick? You know it deep down that, they would have never looked at you if you were a regular person.
They don't love you... They love what you provide, They move what you can give them.
You ain't special in their heart. You will never be.
Xian Tian sat in silence for a few moments, taking in the dragon's words. He had never thought about it that way before.
It felt like his world came crashing down his consciousness.
Trust is a fool's game... Life is a big game, one can barely see the tip of the iceberg, and what lies hidden is unknown.
The dragon continued, his words written permanently on his mind.
Xian Tian's heart felt heavy as the dragon's words sank in.
He had never thought about trust in such a way before, he was just a kid who dreamt big.
The dragon's cynical view of the world made him question everything he had ever believed in.
And then the dragon added one more thing...
"The stronger you are, the lonelier you become!"
Xian Tian's heart sank even further at those words.
He had always longed for companionship, for someone he could trust and rely on. He had thought he had found that in Lady Yun, Lady Xing, Lady Xing's daughter...
But now, doubts crept into his mind.
Was trust really just a fool's game? Were Lady Yun and Lady Xing only after his riches and yang essence?
