BXBX NOVEL Chapter 16: Cultivation
Chapter 16: Cultivation
"This spoiled brat!" The Elf Queen and the Ice Goddess looked annoyed at Ciel\'s request even though he hadn\'t asked them.
Mu Yixue, on the other hand, rolled her eyes.
Doing this would practically make her role as Ciel\'s woman even more visible.
However, she suddenly felt curious as to how Ciel would look after wearing the necklace and the earring.
His face which was a combination of handsome and beautiful would make such accessories suitable for him.
Certainly, they would make him look charming.
After a moment\'s thought, Mu Yixue put the necklace on Ciel\'s neck, hooking it at the back of his neck so that it looked like her hands were wrapped around his neck.
Quickly, the necklace hung around his neck.
He unbuttoned the top button of his shirt so that his chest was exposed slightly and the crescent moon pendant fell there.
The sight made Mu Yixue\'s eyes blink a few times.
She then looked at his ears.
"Your ears still have no holes," she said.
"Then help me make the hole," Ciel replied, holding his left ear, signaling that he wanted it there.
Mu Yixue nodded, taking out a needle and slowly guiding it into his earlobe.
"This might hurt for you, be prepared," she said gently.
Ciel had felt the pain of wounds too many times, so he didn\'t really care, he remained relaxed.
After that, Mu Yixue began to stick the needle into his ear.
There was indeed a painful sensation but he didn\'t even blink at all.
"Doesn\'t it hurt?" asked Mu Yixue curiously.
She slowly withdrew the needle from Ciel\'s ear.
The latter didn\'t answer, just waited for her to put the earring on.
Mu Yixue moved again, as a woman who liked to play with jewelry, it was not something difficult for her.
She easily placed the earring in Ciel\'s earlobe hole.
When Mu Yixue withdrew her hand, Ciel felt that his left ear was a little heavy.
However, he thought he would get used to it quickly.
Staring at Mu Yixue\'s face again, he found the woman pressing her lips together as she looked at his face.
"What\'s wrong, miss? You\'re not mesmerized, are you?" asked Ciel with a faint smile.
"Who\'s mesmerized..." Mu Yixue retorted, staring in the other direction with a blushing face, a sight that made the Ice Goddess and the Elf Queen look at each other again.
(Your disciple\'s personality shouldn\'t be far from yours when you was young.) The Elf Queen said.
The Ice Goddess fell silent, unable to answer the Elf Queen\'s words as her intentions were clear.
If this situation happened when the Ice Goddess was young and weak, she would probably be no different from Mu Yixue, enamored with Ciel.
What worried the Ice Goddess was her future. If she was constantly suppressed by Ciel, was it possible that she would experience such a thing because sometimes feelings could not be controlled?
(Goddess, what do you think of his appearance?) asked the Elf Queen.
(What do you mean?) The Ice Goddess seemed not to understand the meaning of her question.
(Do you agree if I say that he is a charming young man?)
(You? Why do you think that? Do you appreciate his looks?) The Ice Goddess knitted her brows, as if she was jealous.
(I just want us to talk logically. This will help us anticipate many things in the future.) The Elf Queen replied.
(He\'s ugly, the ugliest man I\'ve ever seen. I would have removed his face from this world if not for that video.)
The Ice Goddess\' answer made the Elf Queen open her mouth, looking at her unconvincingly.
Unfortunately, this Goddess was indeed the grumpy type. She clearly still couldn\'t accept this situation.
***
The Ice Continent was quickly shaken by the news that the Ice Palace officials had just spread.
It spread quickly to the other continents resulting in many questions.
In this world, power was everything, but that didn\'t mean politics weren\'t important.
A person might be weak in cultivation, but have such a prestigious position that inevitably people had to consider him.
Ice Prince!
Having the status and authority equivalent to the Ice Goddess in the Ice Palace, it meant that he had the right to rule over the Seven Elders who were Demigods.
That\'s not counting the other three Ice Goddess disciples besides Mu Yixue.
They may not be in the Ice Continent right now, but they were also known to be extremely powerful.
Especially the Goddess\' first disciple, even the First Elder was not her opponent.
Some people even speculated that she was already a God now.
The commotion did not disturb Ciel who was still in the palace hall.
Having had enough of sitting, he stood up again, approaching the Ice Goddess and the Elf Queen.
The two women looked at him as if they were wary of him.
"By the way, Goddess, Queen, as you can see, my cultivation is still at the Spiritual Master First Stage, really very weak while Yixue who is the same age as me has already reached the Hegemon Sixth Stage." He said.
Cultivation starts with 9 Stage of Junior Spiritual, 9 Stage of Senior Spiritual, 3 Stage of Spiritual Master, 3 Stage of Spiritual King, 9 Stage of Hegemon, 4 Stage of Demigods, and 3 Stage of Gods.
Although Ciel had already reached a level where he could fly in the air, unfortunately he was still very weak indeed.
In this world, even Spiritual Kings were not taken seriously, only Hegemons were considered exceptional.
Even on the Ice Continent, it was the Hegemons who dominated the most territory as the Demigods rarely came out.
With Ciel\'s current cultivation speed, he might only be able to become a Hegemon when he was old.
Compared to Mu Yixue, the difference was indeed so significant.
This was the difference between a supreme genius and an ordinary man.
Actually, even compared to the young disciples of the Ice Palace, he was far behind as they had all also become Hegemons.
Each of them could practically become the ruler of a large territory if they left the Ice Palace. Talent-wise, they were indeed the best of the billions of living beings in the vast Ice Continent.
If they joined an ordinary sect, they would practically be considered ancestors from a young age.
Hearing Ciel\'s words, the Ice Goddess showed a dismissive expression.
"You\'d better stop cultivating, and focus on enjoying life," she said.
"Come on..." Ciel smiled wryly, extending his hand to the Ice Goddess\' beautiful and cold face.
The latter instantly pushed his hand aside so that it failed to touch her face.
However, right after that, she grabbed his hand.
It worked but the Ice Goddess instantly shook her hand, making his hand shake as well so that he had no other choice but to let go of her hand.
"This is the result of me being weak," Ciel said.
"That\'s why, I must become stronger so that you will be impressed by me. At that time, will you still reject me when I want to touch you."
"You!" The Ice Goddess\' breathing became rapid, and she hurriedly took a deep breath.
"You can only fantasize about it, do you think, I, the Ice Goddess who is a God would be impressed by a brat like you."
"Fate is unpredictable," Ciel replied.
"Hey, didn\'t we promise before that there would be no such nonsense?" The Elf Queen replied.
"It\'s just an agreement that I\'m not pushy. Me seducing you girls is a different thing."
"..."
"Let\'s get back to the original topic, about my cultivation," Ciel continued. "I want to ask you guys how to make my cultivation foundation perfect, improve my talent, and of course how I can become powerful in a short time without any side effects? I heard that cultivation is not always about talent. As long as you have enough resources, it is still possible to reach the top without talent."
