Chapter 246: Lei Luli
Chapter 246: Lei Luli
"You dare say such words after peeking on me when I was bathing?"
Cursing himself for fainting so soon after realizing that this was the very beauty whose bathroom he ascended into, Jian Shen quickly realized that she had spoken in such a way that only he could hear her.
This meant that she didn't want the others to know about what had happened.
In a normal situation, this would be something normal because no woman would go around parading the fact that someone had entered her bathroom.
But, what was happening right now didn't seem like the way someone would get treated for peeking on a woman when she was bathing.
As for the woman, after she saw Jian Shen's expression and heard his words she realized that it would be much easier than she expected to lure him over to her side.
All she needed to do was give him beautiful women.
Thus, she couldn't help but smile like those creepy uncles who liked to kidnap kids.
Seeing this, Jian Shen found himself further doubting if this woman was even sane to behave like this.
"Where am I?"
"How about eating something first?"
Tilting his head in confusion because the question he asked wasn't a complicated one, Jian Shen couldn't help narrow his eyes thinking that there was something weird happening.
Quickly tracing the two swords which were in the same place they were usually at, Jian Shen was about to pull them out when the beautiful woman stepped forwards and shool her hands.
By now it was already obvious that her status was very higher than the others around her due to which Jian Shen was only looking at her.
"You've misunderstood me, I don't have any negative intentions. I just felt like you'd appreciate some food after staying asleep for an entire month."
Huh?
Not showing how he was actually feeling, Jian Shen quickly confirmed with the two swords who confirmed that the woman was speaking the truth.
"The blessing the heaven gives you by strengthening your soul depends on how strong you are when ascending and how profound your cultivation is, and for you, it turned out to take an entire month to receive the blessing, husband."
"This woman is most likely trying to recruit you, Jian Shen. That's why she had so many doctors repeatedly check on you every day to make sure you weren't injured."
Recruit?
Looking towards the most extravagantly dressed woman in the room, Jian Shen found her still smiling the very same way.
Long black hair with multiple ornaments in them, dressed in white robes with beautiful flower designs on them and even actual flowers near her elbows, the robe was designed in such a way that there was nothing covering her shoulders.
Also, there was a golden mark in between her eyebrows which was excluding an aura of royalty and authority.
Seeing all of this, Jian Shen guessed that she was most likely either a Queen of the royal family which ruled the region or the Empress herself.
"It's fine if you don't want to eat right away, how about we go out on a walk and stretch your body?"
Getting off the bed, Jian Shen despite finding himself a little hungry and eager to check on the women inside the World Crest decided to go with her and find out about where he was at.
After all, he did want to find out about where the Cui Clan was because he wanted to see that beauty who had invited him.
Walking outside the room, Jian Shen found so many soldiers lined up on the sides of the corridors which showed how much importance was placed on his security.
Smiling a little, the woman didn't try to hide anything and said, "I couldn't let anyone else find out about you and try to recruit you before me. You're the first one who ascended inside the confines of my Empire in the last hundred years."
Nodding his head, Jian Shen didn't need to ask anything as the woman herself gave out more details.
"I'm Lei Luli, the beautiful Empress of the Winter Jade Empire. I'm also the most sought after woman inside the Divine Realm."
Looking towards the woman weirdly, Jian Shen couldn't help asking himself if she was speaking the truth or just that narcissistic.
Looking back towards Jian Shen, Lei Luli winked and said, "I just wanted to let you know who your competition was."
Definitely narcissistic.
Still, it was the cute kind of narcissism and not the arrogant kind which would make Jian Shen feel put off.
"What? Is there something on my face?"
Shaking his head, Jian Shen who unexpectedly found himself not in the mood to flirt due to his overflowing curiosity didn't say anything witty and rather kept on looking around.
By now he had already understood the most basic difference between the Mortal Realm and the Divine Realm. The quality of Qi was much higher, the presence of the various Intents of Heaven and Earth was greater in the air, and finally there was a presence of something special along with all of these.
This should be the Soul Essence which could only be found in the Divine Realm and above.
Taking in a deep breath to completely take in the air which felt so much more satisfying to breathe, Jian Shen began asking Lei Luli questions about the Divine Realm.
