Cheat Cultivator's Ascension

Now looking at the young beauty who seems to be way too occupied in the question he just asks, Su Xiaotian took away the smile on his face, patiently waiting until the time that this lady who seems no older than the three ladies in his group, Hua Xian'er, Hong Lian and Astaria.

After a few minutes of awkward silence between the two people waiting for the young beauty to snap out of her daze, the immortal-like young man, as well as said beauty's guardian, her aunt, finally saw a movement from her, the lady taking a gulp as if she just thought of something important before the light finally returns to her now wide eyes.

"T-that's right… why did I not think of that…" the young beauty said with a shocked look on her face, one of her dainty hands holding her head as if she's currently experiencing a headache from the simple question.

"See what I am talking about Miss Jing?" seeing that the young beauty already returns to her senses, Su Xiaotian smiles once again as she looks at him with eyes filled with what seems to be confusion, mixed with some feelings of inferiority hidden deep within her gaze.

Looking at the young beauty still unable to speak and answer his question, the immortal-like young man stands up from the seat he is currently in, taking a few steps back as he observes the people from the lower floor of the building, nodding to himself before returning to the spot he is previously on.

"Do you want to know what I think the Dao is, Miss Jing?" he asked, his powerful voice being carried towards the ears of the young beauty, said words snapping her out of her unfocused state as she looks at him, merely nodding towards him while waiting for his answer.

Seeing her response, the immortal-like young man smiles at her once again before proceeding to speak, the words coming out of his mouth something that the young beauty didn't quite expect.

"Frankly speaking, I think that how you, as well as those other geniuses defines Dao are really good ways of putting it into words, after all, I am only human as well, and it's not like I can judge other people's knowledge on something especially since I can't, and I never will, see the world through the lens they view it with…" Su Xiaotian said with some modesty in his tone, however, the innate confidence and pride of someone who already lived through multiple lives, one of them even filled with suffering, couldn't be hidden from his voice, add to that the unshakable certainty in his words as if it is a pillar of his life that no one will ever damage.

"Then… why do you look so bored when those fellow cultivators are discussing about the Dao" after hearing the immortal-like young man's words, the young beauty finally starts talking once again, the first thing that comes out of her little mouth being a question that she just couldn't figure out the answer to.

"You beautifully put those into words already don't you, Miss Jing? Didn't part of your comprehension of the Dao is that it is the path that each person tread?" Su Xiaotian said while manifesting a strand of Primordial Nihility Transcendent Qi in his palm, masking it with his soul power to hide most of the unique property of his qi, tricking not only the young beauty, but also her guardian and aunt, a Half-step Celestial Realm powerhouse into believing that this strand of qi is just a little bit special.

"I-I don't need your flowery words, just say whatever it is you want to say" the young beauty said more of a muttering rather than anything else as she averts her gaze away from the young man, wondering why is it that she just feels the need to do that all of a sudden.

While observing the interaction between the two young generation, the young beauty's aunt couldn't help but notice the weird reaction her own niece is having towards each of the immortal-like young man's words, causing her to think about something before the expression on her gorgeous face to turn into one with a knowing smile, as if she knows clearly what is it that her niece is experiencing.

Meanwhile, while Su Xiaotian also notices the expression on this mature beauty's face, he decided to ignore it for now as he continues his explanation, the strand of transcendent qi in his hand now swirling before eventually forming a circle, something so simple yet oddly enough, when observed, made not only the young beauty, but also her aunt, feel like they are imprisoned by something.

Seeing the expressions on this two near identical beauties' faces, Su Xiaotian decided to break the circular strand of qi, and then forming a circle once again, this one no longer invoking the same imprisoned feeling the two of them felt earlier.

"Did you notice something?" looking at the two of them, Su Xiaotian asks with the same modest smile on his attractive face, prompting the aunt and niece to look at him at the same time, his immortal-like visage becoming more and more mysterious to their eyes.

'What the hell is he…' the two beauties thought to themselves while still thinking of what is it that made them feel like that just from two seemingly similar strands of qi, their curious hearts itching to scratch the surface and find more about the mystery that is the immortal-like young man in front of them.Nôv(el)B\\jnn

"Those two circles of qi… the only difference between them is the intent placed into them, right?" after a bit of deliberation, the guardian of the young beauty finally decided to join the conversation, and being the person with the cultivation she has, the insights she managed to glean into from that simple display is something so accurate and precise.

"Indeed, uh…" nodding at the mature beauty's words, Su Xiaotian looks at her awkwardly as if he wants to ask something, his intent comprehended by said beauty as she smiles before telling him her name.

"Dongfang Xiang, I am this little girl's aunt…" the guardian said with a modest smile on her face before pointing at the young beauty, then returning her attention to him once again as she intently gazes at him, seemingly really wanting to hear the explanation of what he did or even possibly how and why he did it.

"I thought you were her older sister, Lady Xiang" Su Xiaotian didn't forget to throw in some compliments just like how he understand ladies are, being ones who will have maybe even just a little bit of positive feelings for anyone who throw in a compliment to them at the right timing.

"Fufufu~~~ what a lady's man, but you're still too wet behind the ears if you think you can tease me just like that~" hearing his words, the mature beauty, Dongfang Xiang, replies with an entertained smile on her attractive face, seemingly taking more and more interest towards the young man as she learns more and more about him.

"Am I? Let's talk about that later, Lady Xiang" Su Xiaotian replies with the same, unchanging smile on his face, his composure as he talks so casually with someone of her cultivation making Dongfang Xiang looks more and more positively towards him.
