Mission: Seduce the Master!

Despite his attempts to distract himself, it seemed his younger brother did not know the word \'chill\', and kept trying to rebel against the poor bath towel.

Zhang Mei, unaware of anything, was bathing and enjoying the hot springs. Although her body was covered by a towel, the situation alone made Xie Qing feel a slight excitement.

Moreover, the sight of water droplets sliding down her healthy pale skin and her wet hair swaying with the slightest movements, revealing her slender neck…

Well, the response to this spectacle was the tent on Xie Qing\'s towel. He sighed and averted his gaze.

"What a shame. It seems I\'m becoming more absurd with time," he thought and sighed in disappointment.

Although he was lustful and acknowledged it, but…

"Maybe the environment has influenced me? Considering everything I\'ve seen before… sigh! Damn!"

…In truth, there was nothing to blame him for. Zhang Mei possessed first-class beauty and was so stunning that it was hard to express in ordinary words.

Just her purple eyes could captivate souls, and even her usual cold face could make hundreds and thousands of men fall in love with her.

However, she did not use this and was not interested in it at all. Therefore, her popularity was not particularly high, and everyone regarded her only as a sage, not as a beautiful woman.

Xie Qing himself also considered her a sage first and foremost, but to see her as a woman… until today, his attitude had been more indifferent.

"But, I suppose she has her own charm," Xie Qing thought for a moment, and a slight ripple appeared in his heart, which quickly disappeared.

His intense gaze did not go unnoticed, and Zhang Mei noticed it. However, despite this, the woman continued to pretend that she did not notice at all.

Her thoughts were also confused.

"How embarrassing! How embarrassing! How embarrassing! Damn it!"

Surprisingly, compared to her appearance, her own voice in her thoughts was more girlish and bright, instead of the usual cold and static female voice.

Moreover, her words and the way she spoke them were more cute and resembled the speech of a young girl.

"I didn\'t expect anyone to be here today. And I did warn everyone to stay away!" she thought with a slight disappointment, and a redness appeared on her cheeks, showing her embarrassment. She clenched her hands and lowered her gaze: "Moreover… I-I…"

Her eyes closed, and immediately she imagined the sight – Xie Qing\'s muscular body and no less "muscular" younger brother, which was quite impressive, even shocking Zhang Mei.

Despite her age, her experience with men was limited to mere formal interactions. Although she was very popular in her youth and many wanted to court her, everyone received a strict refusal.

This was because the woman was never interested in relationships, and due to her Master, who was very strict and considered even simple physical contact with a man unacceptable.

And because of this strictness…

"I don\'t know what to do!"

…Zhang Mei was in despair.

Her gaze kept shifting to the side, looking at Xie Qing, or more precisely, at the bath towel. Her face turned red, and her heart beat faster as she imagined what kind of monster was hidden under that thin cloth.

"He… was so big. This…" Zhang Mei bit her lower lip, which looked very sexy, and involuntarily brought her hand to her stomach: "And will it… even fit? How can Xu Mei interact with… \'that\' thing?"

This time, Zhang Mei could not help but admire Xu Mei.

She even felt a moment of envy. It was undeniable that Xu Mei was literally the perfect example of a flawless person – her natural talent, appearance, character, cultivation level…

Even her man was a powerful cultivator with a promising future. And Zhang Mei, for all her years, had never felt any love, was lonely, and only chased after the illusory concept of Immortality.

And because of this, her life, while quite interesting, lacked color – and doubts crept into her heart.

"Maybe… I should find a man?" she suddenly thought, and this thought was like poison seeping into her mind. However, she soon shook her head: "No, it\'s pointless. Relationships would only be a hindrance, that\'s what even Master believed, who died alone… um… alone?"

It seemed that a thought had occurred to Zhang Mei, and her face paled. She clenched her hands.

Her Master was a renowned cultivator of the past and a sage who had created many techniques. However, despite all her achievements, her personal life was very dull.

She didn\'t even have any real friends. In the end, she died trying to make a prediction, and her face at the moment of death was filled with regrets, and the name of some man escaped her lips.

Zhang Mei shuddered. Just imagining herself in her Master\'s place made her body tremble uncontrollably.

"Am I… really right?"

***

Xie Qing turned his gaze to Zhang Mei. She looked lost in thought, and her mood seemed to have noticeably worsened – moreover, a clear grimace of horror could be seen on her beautiful face.

"What\'s wrong with her?" Xie Qing wondered, puzzled.

From the side, she seemed lost in thought and suddenly began to tremble, as if something had frightened her. This behavior could not help but worry Xie Qing.

So, out of politeness, he asked, "Are you alright?"

"Ah?"

Zhang Mei startled and looked at Xie Qing. For some reason, her expression looked more lively, but seeing his concerned gaze, the woman blushed and then turned away.

"Yes, I\'m fine…" she replied in a weak voice.

"Are you sure? If something is wrong, you can always talk to me. Although I\'m young, I understand a lot about human psychology," Xie Qing said sincerely.

"Ah… no, it\'s not necessary…"

Zhang Mei still refused, and Xie Qing could only sigh. In any case, it was his duty to offer. Even if he was very worried about her condition, pushing the issue was not the best idea.

Moreover, after five minutes, Zhang Mei seemed to have regained her composure, and her face became cold again, but it seemed as if the ice had melted.

"Is she… alright?" Xie Qing wondered.

***

Finally, after an hour that felt like a day to Xie Qing – such was the exhausting experience – it ended.

He stepped out of the hot springs and dropped his towel, then noticed someone\'s gaze directed below his waist.

"Ah…"

The man could only bitterly smile. In any case, openly pointing out this fact to Zhang Mei would be too rude and create unnecessary awkwardness. And Xie Qing wanted to avoid that as much as possible.

Then, he took his robe from his spatial ring and pondered.

"Maybe I should buy a new one? It\'s already quite worn out…" the man thought.

The robe indeed looked like it had seen better days. He had been using it for several years, and unfortunately, its time had come.

"Hey…"

"Hm?"

Xie Qing snapped out of his thoughts, hearing someone call him. Turning his gaze to Zhang Mei, his jaw dropped.

"This… to be honest…" the woman said with a red face, and then disappeared.

Xie Qing fell silent and felt the blood rushing to his jade pillar. Then he looked at the bath towel lying alone on the floor.

"She… is so beautiful," the man murmured.

Zhang Mei was not as "mature" as Xu Mei and others, but she was very slender, resembling a porcelain doll. Her long legs and neat, small face were very attractive.

Her breasts were neither too large nor too small – just right and could easily fit into an average man\'s hand.

Moreover, Xie Qing learned a new fact about her…

"She… is very smooth \'there\'…"

And remembering her cute pink nipples, Xie Qing sighed as he looked at his pillar, which was fully ready.

"It seems Master will have to work again today…"

***

At the same time, Zhang Mei teleported to her room and then fell face-first onto her bed. Her face landed right in the pillow. Without moving for about a second, she suddenly grabbed the pillow and screamed loudly.

"AAAAGHHHHHH!"

Her legs started kicking the bed, and her ears turned red. It looked as if a young maiden was experiencing intense embarrassment and didn\'t know where to release it.

Despite Zhang Mei\'s cold, detached, and unfriendly demeanor…

In reality, she was still an innocent maiden.

"How shameful! How awful! Why did I even take such a step?! Aaaagh!"

...and after her desperate cry, she continued to kick the mattress with her feet until she calmed down.
