The Hedonist Sword God

Chapter 223: The past

"I've got one more advice for you, boy."

"What is it?"

"A true hedonist isn't someone who is just good looking on the outside or how good his thoughts are on the inside, his strength also needs to be high enough to flirt with every woman he wants to."

"Come and find me at the Cui Clan if you manage to ascend, handsome boy."

With those words, the woman went through the shattered void and disappeared making everyone more scared of her, and Jian Shen who dared to go against her without showing the slightest fear on his face.

Once the woman left, Jian Shen flew downwards and asked Meng Ya, "I can take the pot with me, right?"

Nodding her head with a blank look, the Genesis Realm Cultivator didn't feel ashamed of being scared of this Sage Realm Cultivator and handed that pot to him.

Throwing a spatial ring towards her which contained the number of Qi Stones he planned in using to bid, Jian Shen flew back to the room and took all the women into his World Crest without giving them a chance to speak.

Flying away through the shattered dome, Jian Shen managed to put an end to the Auction of the Five Centuries in the most unexpected way.

...

"That man.... He was strong in a different way."

"In the Divine Realm, the main focus of cultivation isn't using Qi and rather on the Soul, husband."

"That man could actually be considered as an above-average Cultivator in the Divine Realm, but due to how strong your soul is due to being linked to the both us, his soul attack didn't manage to affect to you."

Nodding her head in acknowledgement, Jian Shen didn't say anything else and continued flying while the two women kept on speaking to themselves.

"Even though he turned out to be a hedonist, he is still the same Jian Shen when it comes to fighting against those stronger than him."

Nodding her head, Juewang also shared the same thoughts due to how well Jian Shen faced against the woman whose presence itself was putting a strain on the Mortal Sword.

Such a feat wouldn't be possible for anyone to easily achieve even if they possessed the same two swords.

"Maybe it's time we reveal the past to him, Qingyu."

Agreeing with Juewang, Qingyu felt that now would be a good time to reveal the past of him which only they two knew.

"Am I going to finally learn about my past?"

Asking with a smile while he was actually nervous on the inside, Jian Shen himself didn't know if he was ready to hear this 'past' of him which he himself didn't know.

Having remained confused about this so-called past of his, Jian Shen was both curious and afraid to learn of God knows what the women knew.

"Yes."

Using their presence to blur the connection between Jian Shen and the World Crest to not let the women in the inside see what was happening on the outside, Qingyu began revealing every single detail she knew about him followed by Juewang filling the details which Qingyu didn't know.

Relaxing since the time he heard that the past they talked about was his past life, Jian Shen who heard the entire story didn't find it hard to believe that the story had actually happened.

"So I was a big shot..."

Interrupting him, Qingyu said, "You weren't a big shot, but you were in the path to become one."

With his lips twitching, Jian Shen continued.

"Okay, I was a guy who could've possibly turned into a big shot but I died trying to court you, and you killed her to take revenge?"

Nodding their heads at how easily Jian Shen summarised everything they told him into a such few words, the two women were surprised at the words he next spoke.

"In that case, you owe me an apology Qingyu, while I owe you a thank you, Juewang."

""That's it?""

"Yup."

Having expected Jian Shen to ask many questions, the two women were truly shocked at how easily he took the details of what they explained to him.

"Since everything that has happened is in the past, what's the use with brooding over it?"

"Though I have to say, that life looks exactly like what I had pictured in my mind before starting to appreciate the presence of women."

Not surprised to hear these words, the two women who felt the same way found themselves still unable to find out who it was that Jian Shen first slept with and found out about the special ability of the Heavenly Dragon Bloodline which in turn put him on the path of Dual Cultivation.

...

Inside the World Crest, the women who had all seen what had happened since the time the auction house was broken into and the woman who left by shattering the sky, they were still unable to speak a single word due to how shocked they were.

Pinching each other at the same time and shrieking, the Yaomei sisters assured themselves and the others that this wasn't a dream.

Until now, even though all of them knew that Jian Shen was strong and there was a mysterious False Immortal Realm Cultivator behind him, they hadn't expected the truth to be so far away.

Was there any way a False Immortal Realm could make that woman who split the skies back out?

Impossible.

This could only mean that those behind him were more terrifying than expected.

Even Jian Xinyi who had previously written off Jian Shen's plans to enter the Divine Realm in the coming future as a long term goal felt that be maybe she had unconsciously looked down on her nephew.

At the same time, Meilin started to think that she should be more careful about what she says to him and in front of him.

After all, he no longer seemed like the normal handsome and talented boy she thought he was.

But in her defence, someone like Jian Shen shouldn't behave like a secondary character and observe everything from the sidelines most of the time and suddenly reveal his true character.
