The Peerless Beauty Stuck With Me

Xiao Yue and Xiao Yun just watched Tang Rao laughing hysterically. Has this guy been kicked in the head? What's with the ghostly laughter? Could it be just because he heard Xiao Yue is under thirty?

Could it be that Tang Rao has some special fetish for women under thirty?

Thinking of this, Xiao Yue couldn't help but swallow her saliva.

"So, do you know about the Dark Moon Association?" Tang Rao looked at Xiao Yue.

"I do," Xiao Yue nodded.

"I've made a bet with the president of the Dark Moon Association that in the sect exchange meeting two and a half months from now, My Mountain Sect will defeat the Dark Moon Association. With you on board, it'll be a matter of minutes," Tang Rao said with a smile.

So that's how it is, Xiao Yue felt relieved.

"But isn't Xiao Yun even more formidable?" said Xiao Yue.

"Xiao Yun won't do," Tang Rao shook his head, "Xiao Yun isn't from My Mountain Sect, she's just my personal bodyguard. As I've said before, we can't let Xiao Yun participate."

"I see, Sect Master. There are still two and a half months left, I think I should be able to reach the Eighth Level of the Luo Xian Realm," Xiao Yue said.

"No," Tang Rao shook his head, "Eighth Level Luo Xian has a good chance of winning, but I like to ensure a complete crushing victory. In two and a half months, I'll get you to at least a Half-step Immortal Monarch, or even help you achieve Immortal Monarch if possible."

Xiao Yue looked incredulous, thinking this had to be a joke. How could this be possible?

My talent is not bad, but it's not so heaven-defying.

Besides, becoming an Immortal Monarch is a huge barrier. Many at the Half-step Immortal Monarch Realm can spend ten or even twenty years or a lifetime without taking that step.

Immortal Monarch, that's a completely different concept from Luo Xian.

"Tang Rao, can you not boast so much your pride bursts?" Xiao Yun also looked disdainful, helping someone from the Seventh Level Luo Xian to Immortal Monarch in two and a half months—let me ask you, is your brain functioning properly?

"How about this, let's make a bet," Tang Rao said with a grin, looking at Xiao Yun.

Xiao Yun clapped her hands, "Fine, let's bet. If I win, you give me that sword," Xiao Yun shook the sword in her hand that belonged to Dongfang Bailu.

That's definitely a great item, not inferior to Liu Mingyue's sword at all.

"Okay, but what if you lose?" Tang Rao asked.

"This... you tell me," Xiao Yun said, tilting her head.

"If you lose, you'll join My Mountain Sect and obey my orders," Tang Rao said. Xiao Yun was being too difficult, always requiring candy in exchange for any task assigned to her.

"This..." Xiao Yun looked hesitant.

"Scared, eh? If you're scared then forget it, I know you're timid. No worries, you're a young girl, and I promise I'll never laugh at you for this," Tang Rao stretched out his hand.

Xiao Yue rolled her eyes on the side. Tang Rao was really too shameless.

To think he'd use reverse psychology on a kid like Xiao Yun.

"Fine." Xiao Yun gritted her teeth, "Tang Rao, you scumbag, I'll take your bet. But let me tell you, if I really lose and then join My Mountain Sect, you better not regret it."

Tang Rao was stunned for a moment. Xiao Yun's words were suggestive.

Could it be she comes from some powerful force?

Joining My Mountain Sect might cause dissatisfaction with the force Xiao Yun belongs to?

"Regret what, dammit. I, Tang Rao, am a tough man, my world has no room for regret. What do I value in this life? Nothing else, just five words: If you're a man, step up!" Tang Rao declared with a brazen face.

"I really admire this dumbass-like spirit of yours!" Xiao Yun gave a thumbs up.

Tang Rao: "..."

...

"Xiao Yue, so yeah, starting from today, you'll take over the Bounty Hall. Also, I have a mission for you," Tang Rao looked at Xiao Yue, then pulled out Illusion City from within his portable palace.

With the Bounty Hall and the Lu Family, I believe Illusion City will definitely develop rapidly.

Especially the Bounty Hall.

After all, the clients of the Bounty Hall come from all over, and once it spreads out, it will definitely have an explosive effect.

My own earning speed will also go biubiubiu skyrocketing.

...

In the following days, Tang Rao still stayed in Bounty City and did not return to the Kao Shan Sect.

The recruitment task for one billion Immortal Stones had not yet been completed.

Up to now, only two people had been recruited, one was Zhou Wenmo, and the other was Dongfanglu from the Lu Family.

Speaking of Dongfanglu, Tang Rao couldn't help but think of Dongfang Bailu — probably because their names were so similar.

"Aiyo, day after day, how long do I have to wait? One billion Immortal Stones, how can no one be tempted, it's not scientific." In the yard, Tang Rao was muttering.

"Don't worry, Sect Master, once I reach the Luo Xian Realm, I'll come." Fan Xiaohua reassured Tang Rao.

"What realm are you in now?" Tang Rao rolled his eyes.

"Seventh Level Heavenly Immortal!" Fan Xiaohua said with pride, "Hehe, Sect Master, I heard that you can boost a Seventh Level Luo Xian to the Immortal Monarch Realm in two and a half months. I am a Seventh Level Heavenly Immortal, so it should be even simpler to cultivate me. How about you boost me up too?"

It turns out this is what Fan Xiaohua was thinking.

"Even if you're well cultivated, you'll only be at the Eighth Level Luo Xian, which is pretty useless." Tang Rao said.

Fan Xiaohua: "..."

"Bro, Wen Mo is here." Just as Fan Xiaohua was about to say something, Lu Jun's voice came from outside the yard.

Not long after Lu Jun's voice fell, Zhou Wenmo entered, bringing two young men beside him who both looked quite handsome.

Tang Rao glanced at them, one at the Luo Xian First Level, and the other, surprisingly, was at the Fifth Level Luo Xian.

Judging by their ages, they should be no more than twenty-five years old.

My goodness, to encounter such talent? Awesome!

"Boss, this is Hao Tian." Zhou Wenmo pointed at the one at the Luo Xian First Level.

Hao Tian looked somewhat arrogant, nodded at Tang Rao without saying anything else, with an attitude that suggested his presence alone was doing Tang Rao a favor.

This attitude irked Tang Rao a bit, as he was not looking to recruit any masters.

"This is... Cha Xiangzi, yes, that's the name." Zhou Wenmo thought for a moment before saying.

Tang Rao was also somewhat puzzled, Cha Xiangzi, that's quite a strange name.

Cha Xiangzi also nodded to Tang Rao as a gesture, without speaking, his expression calm and his gaze steady, appearing much more pleasant than Hao Tian.

Tang Rao liked to rely on first impressions when judging people.

Many times, first impressions are an important indicator of a person's character.

"Uh, you two, do you have a Sect?" Tang Rao asked.

"None, I am alone." Cha Xiangzi said softly.

"I'm here to take a mission, do you need to investigate so much? What's all this about!" As for Hao Tian, he remained arrogant as if his coming here was already a great honor for Tang Rao.

"Are you from a Sect?" Tang Rao asked again.

Hao Tian looked at Tang Rao, rolled his eyes, snorted disdainfully through his nostrils: "A talent like me, naturally, Sects are vying for me. Let me tell you, I am from Qinghe Sect."

Hearing Hao Tian's words, Zhou Wenmo paused for a moment; she certainly knew of Qinghe Sect.

"Sect Master, the Qinghe Sect is one of the strongest among the dozens of forces around, its members are numerous experts, and it is said that the Qinghe Ancestor is about to enter the Immortal Monarch Realm. Once they succeed in becoming an Immortal Monarch, the Qinghe Sect will rise even further. By then, the surrounding forces, big and small, are likely to be swallowed by the Qinghe Sect." Fan Xiaohua quickly said, as an intelligence officer, she was quite outstanding.
