Cheat Cultivator's Ascension

Chapter 398: Showing Off?



While this alluring, purple haired beauty is currently still relishing on the feeling of letting herself go for quite some time within the illusion created by the Dao Resonating Rock, more and more geniuses are already starting to wake up from their current state of meditation, most of said geniuses being the ones brought from the outside world by the Half=step Celestial Realms that are guarding them.

The reason for these outsiders being far faster than the natives in terms of completing this trial is the fact that they are also the ones who have significantly better understanding on the Dao than the normal geniuses of the Sky Soul Star given the difference in the environment they grew up from, with their eyes seeing Half-step Celestial Realm experts on a daily basis, and those within the Celestial level are not even that rare to them, while the geniuses of this planet are people who can see even just Half-step Celestial Realm in extremely rare situations.

With the fact that these geniuses are far more outstanding than majority of the talents of the Sky Soul Star's Eastern Continent, it is easy for them to grow quite conceited of their strength especially since they merely treats this planet as a minor adventure for them to gain experience for their future cultivation, not really expecting that within this very planet itself, a person who will completely overshadow their talent will appear, not to mention said person is also participating in the same competition as them.

This pride on themselves also made all but one person among these extraterrestrial young geniuses to reveal smug look on their faces as they open their eyes, thinking that even if it is not them, then one of them will definitely take the first place of this trial, hence when they witnessed that there are already people who manages to escape from the illusion of the Dao Resonating Rock, seemingly far earlier than them.

This causes distress and doubt to arise on most of these geniuses' faces, with the only one among them not feeling such thing being a young lady who appears to be of late teen in terms of age, bearing a similar build as Su Xiaotian's sister, the difference being her long, straight black hair with a perfect luster that makes it appear like it is shining in the bright sky, perfectly complimenting her goose egg shaped face and the upturned eyes that made her appear quite confident, if not proud.

Accentuating her eyes are the long straight eyelashes and willow eyebrows bearing the same color and shade as her lustrous hair, her eyebrows connected towards her cute, straight nose leading to her pink, beautiful lips, which clearly still has its youthful appeal seeing that she doesn't develop any mature feature on her face yet.

This beauty, with her confident gaze, peering toward the young geniuses that came from the same planet as hers, feels like she is now somehow in front of them in terms of cultivation one way or another, especially since she was already made aware of the fact that even within a world like this, obviously lower leveled compared to the kingdom that her mother leads, geniuses beyond comprehension exists, the thought of these kind of geniuses prompting her to move her head around the place and look for a specific figure within the crowd.

As her gaze finally reaches the place where the participants who are already done with the first trial waits, this proud beauty's eyes starts glowing with excitement and delight as she laid her eyes upon one of the people who had already passed the first trial, seeing her true objective of going in this place in the figure she just saw, around him, the very same people that accompanies him when she first met him in that restaurant, making her even more sure that this is the very same young man that she is looking for.

On the other hand, as this young lady, a princess of a kingdom beyond the Sky Soul Star, Dongfang Jing, stares at the immortal-like young man with such fascination glowing within the depth of her star-like eyes, another lady currently has her eyes locked toward the figure of the very same young man, the emotions on her face on the other hand is far more complicated than the ones that appear on Dongfang Jing's eyes.

The lady staring at Su Xiaotian, an alluring, purple haired young lady who appears to be of the same age as both Hua Xian'er and Hong Lian, looks at him with a mixture of hope, pity, frustration and even doubt along with all other sorts of emotions flooding her eyes, and even reaching as far as causing tears to threateningly flow out of her eyes, something that she never expected herself to do after so many years of being able to completely conceal her emotions even in front of an Ascension Realm expert without any problem at all.

Meanwhile, being stared at so intensely by two people, the immortal-like young man couldn't help but feel like he did something wrong despite not doing anything, causing him to feel the need to look and check the identity of these two people currently staring at him, prompting him to leave the conversation with his sister, lovers and friends for a while as he starts turning his head around to see the direction where the gazes he felt are coming from.

Seeing the purple-haired, alluring beauty that is Zi Yu'er, the immortal-like young man couldn't stop himself from smiling as he starts looking forward to what this lady can show him after all these time that they had been separated, the confidence of his assessment on her inside his mind telling him that whatever it is that this alluring beauty will show him later, it is definitely on the same level of impressiveness as the technique that his senior sister Dao Xuanyuan uses during their sparring.

As she continues to stare at the man who appears to be the only one that can help her in her current predicament, the purple-haired beauty, ZI Yu'er, notices too late that he is also looking at her direction now, the smile on his face enough to make her forget her problems for a minute before she snaps out of her daze as she shakes her head to get off the thoughts about him inside her mind, thinking that any more interaction between the two of them might give him more trouble given how much attention the third prince of the Imperial Court is paying to her.

Su Xiaotian is completely unaware of this fact though, hence making him wonder just why is it that this beauty appears to be out of herself compared to how she usually is whenever he saw her, causing him to ask the question of whether she has anything weighing her mind.

Before he can even send a question to her via telepathic communication though, he already received something from her, the tone of her usually cheerful, cheeky voice completely different, as if a lot of things are already weighing on her mind.

{Su Tian… or rather… Su Xiaotian… please stop staring at me like that from now on…} she said with her resolve shaking as she never really want to say even just something like that to him, the feeling of her pushing away the person who she is interested the most making her feel quite the complicated, negative emotion deep inside her heart, almost as if there's someone taking away a very important thing to her, however, she doesn't know who it is that is taking them away and what it is that is being taken from her.

Detecting the tone of her voice, the immortal-like young man already knows that there's a problem that she is currently facing, probably so much larger than she expected that she doesn't even want to tell him and just decides to drive him away like this, most likely out of fear of being implicated by hanging out with her.

'Come to think of it, the rumor about the third prince of the Imperial Court…' as he recalls the things he heard from the crowd from when the Dao Enlightenment Competition is just starting, Su Xiaotian couldn't help but frown as he pieces some important information together, a deduction that if proven to be right, is definitely the reason why this beauty whom he befriended through a great fight is now actively avoiding him and even pushing him away from her.

{You're right, I probably should stop staring at you like this…} he conceded causing the alluring beauty to feel relieved, yet also disappointed at the same time, thinking that there might still be something that he wants to say before she eventually manages to convince him on following her suggestions, but only until she heard the second part of his words, the words coming into her mind making her heart skip beats and her entire being completely confused and overwhelmed by good feelings.
