Chapter 350: Chapter 248 – Master Peach Blossom’s Anger, Do you think I am an easily used woman?!_3
“Do they really think I’m a woman who is just at the beck and call of everyone?”
Master Peach Blossom gritted her teeth, her attention immediately drawn to the message coming from her token.
Clearly, it was that detestable man, Zhou Sui.
Her incredibly beautiful face, sometimes feisty, sometimes charming, was enough to eclipse a hundred flowers.
Dressed in a transparent nightgown, her perfect curves were in full display-akin to a work of art created by a divine sculptor, absolutely flawless in every aspect.
Even without any charms, she could still make all the men in the world fall head over heels for her.
But her mind was in chaos right now, all because of one man, infuriatingly enough.
Who knows how many male cultivators’ hearts would break if they saw this scene.
“Hmm, let me see why he bothered to contact me?”
“It’s not because he needs my help, right?”
“If he really is in danger, I will definitely rescue him and keep him on Peach Blossom Island.”
“And never allow him to leave.”
“Let’s see if he dares ignore me now.”
Master Peach Blossom clenched her fists, clearly irritated.
She had given that man her token from Peach Blossom Island.
She did it for the purpose of always being in touch with him.
But now, after this bastard man left, he didn’t bother returning to Peach Blossom Island and never even made contact.
It was as if he had never set foot on Peach Blossom Island.
She could also take the initiative to contact him.
But asking her, the revered Master Peach Blossom, to take the initiative in contacting a man, was a fantasy.
She would rather die than do something like that.
Didn’t that man know to take the initiative? Was he too stupid to contact her?
He was absolutely clueless about her feelings.
She had plans to sever contact with this man initially.
But as time goes by, his figure began to surface in her mind more often at night. She was losing sleep over it.
Just as she felt she couldn’t handle it and was about to find him personally, that man took the initiative to send a message.
She was both pleasantly surprised and excited.
All the previous resentment was immediately cast aside.
“Heisha Palace and the Sea Clan are joining forces in secret to harm the Wuji Alliance?”
“The previous death of Wuji Alliance’s Nascent Soul cultivator could be the result of Heisha Palace’s conspiracy?”
“Could it be… he worries about me and that’s why he sent this message?”
“This man must have feelings for me. That’s why he would specifically remind me.”
“Why else would he not remind other women?”
“From the looks of it, there must be a reason why he didn’t contact me.”
“That’s probably due to his male pride.”
“Knowing that he is just a Golden Core Master and his cultivation may not match mine, he chose to focus on cultivating.”
“Once he becomes a Nascent Soul cultivator, he will confidently appear before me and propose properly.”
“It seems I’ll have to provide him with more pills, helping him with his cultivation, and advancing to the Nascent Soul stage as soon as possible.”
“I’ll need to prepare Nascent Soul materials and Nascent Soul pills.”
Master Peach Blossom was filled with excitement, she couldn’t help but cheer.
She couldn’t be bothered about any conspiracy by Heisha Palace and the cultivators from the Sea Clan.
…
Elsewhere, at Heisha Palace’s headquarters,
Upon receiving news of the Red Scorpion Master’s death—as their life tokens were shattered—multiple cultivators were shocked.
Even within Nascent Soul Sect, Golden Core Masters were quite high-ranking.
Due to the scarcity of Nascent Soul Ancestors,
Large parts of the sea territory needed to be managed by a substantial number of Golden Core Masters.
Every Golden Core Master was a ruler in their own right.
If Nascent Soul Ancestor were kings, then Golden Core Masters were their nobles.
The death of five nobles was bound to cause an uproar.
“What exactly happened? Who killed the Red Scorpion Master and the others?”
A Golden Core Manager at the Heisha Palace looked sour.
He clearly understood the strength of Red Scorpion Master and the others. Ordinary Golden Core cultivators could hardly kill them.
Even if they couldn’t win, they could still escape.
Unless it was a Nascent Soul Ancestor who personally stepped forward.
“During this time, Red Scorpion Master and the others were active in the Wuji Alliance’s sea territory.”
“Reportedly, they were planning to take advantage of the chaos in the territory and plunder some wealth and resources.”
“Recently, they seemed to have set their sights on a newly rising island group known as the Tri-Star Island Group.”
“This group of islands rose rapidly in the past 10 to 20 years. With a population in the tens of millions, wealth was flowing in every day.”
“That’s why they wanted to go over and raid.”
“Who would’ve thought they’d make their end at the Tri-Star Island Group.”
A black-robed cultivator immediately relayed. As a Golden Core Master managing the intelligence for Heisha Palace, he had thorough knowledge of the whereabouts of Heisha Palace’s Golden Core Masters.
“The Tri-Star Island Group? What’s so special about it?”
“How could it lead to the death of five Golden Core cultivators from our Heisha Palace?”
“Could it possibly be one of Wuji Alliance’s hidden forces?”
At this time, a Nascent Soul Ancestor of the Heisha Palace, having heard the news, rushed over with a serious look on his face.
His name was Lihen Ancestor, one of the high-ranking members of Heisha Palace and an early-stage Nascent Soul.
Red Scorpion Master and the other four men were his direct subordinates.
With his loyal subordinates having been killed, he was naturally furious and wanted to get to the bottom of it.
“Lihen Ancestor, to be honest, we are equally confounded about the Tri-Star Island Group.”
