The woman’s sudden arrival surprised Qin Haodong. He asked, “Why are you here?”

Tu Jiaojiao smiled sweetly. “I’m here to take advantage of you!”

Qin Haodong said, “Stop! Stop that now! Please wait until tomorrow if you have something to discuss.”

Tu Jiaojiao shifted her body and laid down beside Qin Haodong. She said to him, “You have such a delicate beauty lying with you. Aren’t you tempted?

“You might not be aware, but there are countless men in our academy who want to court me.”

Qin Haodong had no doubts about her statement. This woman was indeed very beautiful, sexy, and hot. She was the goddess countless men dreamed of.

However, he was now wholeheartedly focused on his cultivation. His only thought was to return to earth as soon as possible. He didn’t want to flirt with too many women, so he said, “I’m sorry, Senior Sister. I’m a little special. I only like men. I don’t like women.”

“You like men? Really? Are you lying to me?”

A look of surprise flashed across Tu Jiaojiao’s face.

“Of course I am not lying to you. Everyone in our academy knows it.”

Tu Jiaojiao’s expression quickly returned to normal. She smiled coquettishly. “Laddie, you’re handsome but it’s not right for you to play dirty tricks on me.”

Qin Haodong said guiltily, “I’m not lying to you. I’m telling the truth.”

“Is it really true? But when you were treating Murong Jinghong today, the way you looked at her bosom was not right. If you really like men, why did you have that look?”

“This… I…”

Qin Haodong was not gay at all, so he did not know how to answer for a moment. He didn’t expect that the woman would be so observant.

Then he gritted his teeth and said, “I am really not lying to you. Otherwise, how could I not be tempted by such a beautiful woman like you?”

“You are not tempted? Or, you do not wish to show it? I will have to check this out.”

As Tu Jiaojiao spoke, she actually reached out and unbuttoned two of her collar buttons, revealing a large patch of snow-white skin. For a moment, the small tent was filled with an erotic atmosphere.

Qin Haodong didn’t expect this woman to do this. He asked nervously, “What are you going to do?”

“Nothing. I just want to see if you are lying.”

Tu Jiaojiao smiled coquettishly again. She reached out and gently stroked Qin Haodong’s cheek. Then she lowered her head to look at his crotch.

“Uh… Uh… Uh…” Tu Jiaojiao giggled. “Laddie, the evidence is conclusive. What else do you have to say? Would you have this reaction if you really liked men?”

“Uh…”

Qin Haodong was very embarrassed. He hasn’t had sex with a woman for a long time since he left earth.

Now he was being seduced by such a hot woman in the tent, so he couldn’t help but have a reaction. It seemed that passion couldn’t be faked.

He took a deep breath, suppressed his surging emotions, and asked, “Why did you come here in the middle of the night? What are you trying to do?”

“Would you believe me if I said I was just curious about you?” Tu Jiaojiao said.

“I’m just an ordinary man. What’s there to be curious about?”

“Ordinary? I don’t think so. If you are ordinary, how can you say that ‘men are born to protect women’?”

At this point, the smile on Tu Jiaojiao’s face disappeared. She became extremely formal.

“What’s wrong with that? Am I not right?”

Qin Haodong didn’t expect that such a common sentence spoken on earth would attract such a beautiful woman.

Tu Jiaojiao sighed, “Do you know why I selected the path of cultivation?”

Qin Haodong shook his head. It seemed that Tu Jiaojiao didn’t need any answer from him. She continued, “In the Lingwu Continent, apart from the cultivators, there is no other status for women.

“In the eyes of many people, women are just accessories, just for men’s enjoyment. The status of women can’t compare with that of men.

“My mother was an unfortunate woman. She was snatched by my father and was unhappy for the rest of her life. I wanted to have my own life, so I stepped on the road of cultivation.”

“Oh!”

Qin Haodong nodded. He was not surprised about this. Thousands of years ago, the status of women in Huaxia was extremely low, but in recent years, it had undergone a drastic change.

“In the academy, there are many men who are after me. However, I haven’t accepted any of them. Many people have privately asked me what kind of man I want to marry. Do you want to know the answer?”

The woman seemed not to have the habit of letting people answer her questions. Then she added quickly, “The only thing I ask of a man is to respect women from the bottom of his heart. Only a man who knows how to respect women will take pity on his woman. Only if a man knows how to empathize with his woman can they be happy.”

Qin Haodong said, “This request should be very simple.”

“It’s not that simple at all. At least, I haven’t found a single one before today.” Tu Jiaojiao smiled again. “Although many men flattered me, I could see that they didn’t treat women equally in their hearts.

“You are the first person I’ve ever met who treats women equally.”

“This…”

The sudden topic rendered Qin Haodong speechless for a while.

Tu Jiaojiao said slyly, “What do you think? Do you want to court me? As long as you are willing to court me, I may agree.”

Qin Haodong said awkwardly, “Well… I have no intention of doing so at present.”

“What an unromantic man.” Tu Jiaojiao glared coquettishly at him. “You don’t want to eat the meat delivered to your door. You’ll regret it in the future.

“I just wanted to find someone to talk to. Now I feel much better. I’m leaving.”

After that, she got up and went out of the tent, leaving behind a faint fragrance.

Qin Haodong shook his head. This woman looked sexy and hot, but in fact, she was still a virgin. How dare she flirt with him?

Just when he was speechless, the door of the tent opened from the outside again. A beautiful figure came in with a smile.

“Little Brother, I’m here.”

Seeing the Little Witch’s delicate face, Qin Haodong said, “What are you doing here at night instead of sleeping?”

“I am not sleeping? Or, you are not sleeping?” The Little Witch giggled, “I saw Tu Jiaojiao walking out of your tent earlier. She was buttoning her shirt as she walked.

“Out with it, what did the two of you do?”

Qin Haodong said awkwardly, “We were just chatting. We didn’t do anything.”

“In the middle of the night, a man and a woman are alone in the tent. Just chatting? Little Brother, do you think I will believe you?”

“Well… I’m telling the truth.”

Qin Haodong even felt his words sounded quite lame, so he could only briefly tell her what had happened.

After listening, the little beauty smiled and said, “I told you that you can’t hide it. Whether you like men or women, it can be seen from the look in your eyes.

“For example, the way you are looking a little nervously at me now. It is as if you are afraid that I will take advantage of you.”

She kissed Qin Haodong hard on the cheek and said with a smile, “You’re right. I really want to take advantage of you.”

Qin Haodong wiped his face helplessly and said, “You little girl, it will be troublesome if your grandma knows my secret.”

The Little Witch said, “Little Brother, if you don’t want your secret known, I have a good idea.”

Qin Haodong asked, “What is it?”

“I’ll make your lie real. Cut yours off.”

The Little Witch stretched out two fingers weirdly and made a snipping motion.

“You little girl…”

Before Qin Haodong could get angry, the Little Witch pretended to cut it off with her hands. Then she ran out, leaving a string of bell-like laughter.

“I…”

Qin Haodong didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. This little girl was really devilish. She could do anything.

Just as he was about to sleep, another delicate voice sounded outside the tent, “Big Brother Qin, can I come in?”

“Uh…”

Qin Haodong was speechless again. What was going on tonight? All these beautiful women came one after another. The one standing outside the tent was the woman in black he had saved today.

“Come in!”

Anyway, two beautiful women had already visited him. It didn’t matter if there was one more. But this time, Qin Haodong sat cross-legged.

The woman in black entered the tent. The two of them sat opposite each other.

The tent was not too big. The two of them sat together, so Qin Haodong could see the woman’s face clearly.

This woman was not as beautiful as Yun Qianqian, was not as cold as Fang Qiong’er, and was not as noble as Zhao Xingyue. However, she had an elegant and refined temperament and looked gentle and thoughtful.

“What’s the matter?” Qin Haodong asked.

“Big Brother Qin, my name is Zhong Xiaodie. I came here to thank you. If you hadn’t saved me today, I would have been caught by those damned ghost slaves. The consequence would have been unimaginable.”

Qin Haodong said, “I should take up the cudgel on behalf of the victim of injustice. The Ghost King Sect is our enemy. You don’t have to take it to heart.”

“In short, I have to thank you. You not only saved me but also healed my injury. If it weren’t for you, I’m afraid I would have become a cripple now.”

Zhong Xiaodie said gratefully, “Big Brother Qin, your medical skills are amazing. I was seriously injured. I thought I would die for sure.”

Qin Haodong smiled and stopped being polite. He asked, “How’s your injury?”

Zhong Xiaodie said, “Big Brother Qin, you’re amazing. I’m completely cured.”

Qin Haodong asked, “By the way, where are you going? How did you meet the ghost slaves today?”

Speaking of this, Zhong Xiaodie said with a sad look on her face, “My brother and I are cultivators of the Tortoise Kingdom. We came here due to the appearance of the Seven Storeys Pagoda this time. We wanted to get some opportunities from it.

“But I didn’t expect to meet the ghost slaves halfway. In order to protect me, my brother died in the hands of the Ghost King Sect. I was also seriously injured. Fortunately, I met you later.”

“The dead can’t be brought back to life. Please do not grieve too much,” Qin Haodong said, “what are you going to do next?”

Speaking of this, he remembered that because he was too busy before, he didn’t ask for Zhong Xiaodie’s consent and brought her here directly.

“I still want to enter the Seven Storeys Pagoda for the sake of improving my cultivation and taking revenge for my brother.”

Speaking of this, she looked at Qin Haodong earnestly and said, “I heard from several sisters who were talking before that you are also going to the Seven Storeys Pagoda. Can you take me with you?”

Qin Haodong felt that the girl was quite pitiful and said, “Okay, as long as you are willing to come with us.”

“Thank you, Big Brother Qin. It’s getting late. I won’t disturb your rest. I’ll go back first.”

Zhong Xiaodie thanked Qin Haodong again and then left the tent.

The next day, everyone continued on their way. Near evening, a rolling mountain range appeared before their eyes.

Tu Jiaojiao ran to Qin Haodong’s side, pointed in front of him and said, “We will reach Pagoda Mountain in another half a day.”

The Little Witch said, “Little Brother, let’s take a rest here before we go. Anyway, we still have time.”

“All right. Let’s have a good rest tonight and prepare ourselves mentally. We’ll head for Pagoda Mountain tomorrow.”

Qin Haodong saw a big river ahead in the distance. He pointed there and said, “Let’s camp by the river.”
