Pursuit Of Immortality: Conquering Ten Thousand Goddesses

The Medicine Hall Leader heard this and his face blazed with intense, searing steam.

He jabbed his finger at Wei Shi Lan.

"You Oaf! Shameless dog! Your greed truly knows no bounds, after that stunt you pulled with my wife at the marketplace, you still dare to come here, in my Hall! Asking for my wife!!"

Wei Shi Lan folded his hands, looking at the man blankly.

"You make it sound like a problem. Is something wrong with a man looking for your wife?"

Silence ensued after that question, it was like everyone was truly thinking about Wei Shi Lan’s words.

And he was right, what was wrong with simply asking for a woman?

The Medicine Hall Leader glared at Wei Shi Lan, feeling like the moment he opened his mouth, he would be walking into a trap.

"Nothing may be wrong, but it still is inappropriate coming from a rival."

Shi Lan turned his head to the lady in a white dress who had spoken.

The Hall Leader quickly reaffirmed what the lady said.

"Y-Y-Yes, it is inappropriate, Mei Feng is right!"

Shi Lan was silent, making the atmosphere seem oppressive against the Hall Leader. He trembled slightly but tried to hide it.

"Oh please, what is inappropriate about it, your wife has been on my bed. What is the worst that could happen?"

A devilish smile, climbed Wei Shi Lan’s lips and quickly disappeared.

The Hall Leader at that point, lost the battle.

"You bastard! How dare you speak of my wife in such a manner, I know you’re just trying to get into her skirt, you impudent brat! You are courting death!"

Mei Feng who stood behind the Hall Leader let out a weary sigh.

Shi Lan kept an annoying smile on his face.

"You are a man undeserving of a jewel like Sui Rong, your words diminish her worth and honor. You don’t trust the morality of your own wife, this can only be because you know, you’re a despicable man! And do not deserve her! Worthless truly, worthless."

He peered down on the Hall Leader with a deeply revolted look in his eyes.

This made the man freeze. He should be the one angry, but somehow, he seemed to be the one that had done something terribly wrong.

The patients behind him were murmuring too.

"Wait, what? This—"

"There is no need for you to speak anymore."

The voice came from behind, making the Hall go silent.

Sui Rong took graceful steps from behind, walking towards them, wearing a pale yellow dress with the pattern of autumn. She stopped in front of Shi Lan and glanced at her husband.

"He—"

He tried to jab his fingers at Shi Lan but her gaze made his entire ego shrink, he couldn’t even dare to meet it.

Wei Shi Lan observed and smiled internally.

’So, he is that type of man... how cowardly.’

The quality of men he met in this Lake Valley was somewhat concerning, now he couldn’t help but wonder why.

Sui Rong kept a straight face and spoke.

"Benevolent Leader please follow me."

She paused and turned back to her husband.

"Don’t you dare come to our room, until I ask you to!"

The man’s expression crumbled. Like a wretched ghost of himself, he watched his wife and the Benevolent Healer walk up the stairs, going to the upper floor.

The patients in the Hall shook their head in pity towards the Hall Leader, many gossiped in murmurs.

"I’ve never seen Lady Sui so angry."

"The Hall Leader went far this time, Lady Sui is every man’s dream wife, you can’t treat her with such disrespect."

"The Hall Leader is truly undeserving of his wife. Even I could have done better."

The man glared, devastated but enraged, he stormed out of the building.

Meanwhile, Mei Feng watched him in silence and released another weary sigh.

Shi Lan reached the upper floor of the pagoda. They first walked in silence, he walked behind, watching Sui Rong’s rear as her clothes folded out the curves. She was slow, walking gracefully.

And giving Shi Lan all the time to stare.

And Shi Lan did stare... but unlike Sui Rong could possibly be plotting in her head, this was not going to stir his lust in the slightest manner.

Wei Shi Lan is a very focused man, who had learned to bridle his lust a very long time ago. However, if there were certain things that would cause him to unleash his devilish lechery, it had to be something that would throw him closer to his goal.

Even though he had been intensely tempted to put his dragon inside Qing Rou, he had refrained from it. Not because he was a good man, Wei Shi Lan was anything but a good man.

It was simply because Qing Rou’s body needed rest, after receiving a drop of the Dark Qi’s strength, it was insanely exhausted, any more would have left Qing Rou paralyzed.

And that wouldn’t benefit him.

"We’re here..."

Sui Rong’s voice broke the silence and reached into his head. Shi Lan looked at her and the door in front of them.

Wei Shi Lan looked around the wide sitting room. It was a wide difference from Chang’e’s space.

This one was set with exquisite furniture, with deep wine color, and blending with various colors such as black, pink, scarlet, all to produce an astonishing and brilliant space. The smell of wood lingered in the air, cooling in his lungs.

He returned his gaze to the door leading to Sui Rong’s room. Then attempted to open it. However, she moved quickly and touched the door knob at the same time he touched it. Her body tingled and she quickly pulled her hand away.

Her face reddened, but she lowered it, speaking from that position.

"Uhm... is it okay, if I open the door for you?"

Shi Lan studied her with an unreadable expression. Then he stepped back.

"Go ahead."

She moved to the door slowly, and pushed it open, walking inside. But Wei Shi Lan’s voice stopped her.

"Where are you going?"

She turned.

"Inside...? I will try my best to satisfy you too..."

Shi Lan tilted his head, looking at her blankly.

"No, you’re not coming inside with me. Stay outside and stand guard."
