"Ahh!"
Li Xiang ran straight into Xiao Fang's body.
Xiao Fang was surprised, was this really the extent of her technique? He could've stopped her from running into him, but he wouldn't have been a dual cultivator if he did.
Xiao Fang fell back as she fell on top of him. In the next moment, they were both lying on the floor, with Xiao Fang's hands resting on her body.
Li Xiang blacked out for a moment, but when she came to, she began to feel a strange but pleasurable sensation spreading throughout her body.
"Mmh~" she moaned lightly.
Her pink cave became moist as her mountain peaks became erect, she felt so turned on she almost thought it was a wet dream. Even the smell of Xiao Fang natural musk turned her on.
Her heartbeat became faster, her palms were sweaty, and she felt tingly between her legs.
'What's happening to me?' She thought as she slowly opened her eyes.
It took her a moment to realize it, but when she saw that she was laying on top of him, her face immediately became flushed red. His hands were on her hip and thigh and her hands were resting on his chest. She had never been this close to a man before so she didn't know how to react.
"Li Xiang, are you alright?" Xiao Fang's question snapped her out of her daze.
She quickly got off of him.
"Long Wang, I-I-I didn't mean to..." she said with bright red cheeks.
Xiao Fang got up then casually dusted himself off.
"Don't worry, it's not everyday that a beautiful girl jumps on top of me," Xiao Fang joked.
'Does he think I'm beautiful?' she thought.
She was often told that she was a very pretty girl, but it felt different hearing it from Xiao Fang.
"Long Wang, I'm... I'm sorry."
"Li Xiang, if you keep apologizing to me, I'm going to feel bad for enjoying it too much."
Li Xiang, bit her lip as she thought about how Xiao Fang's hands were making her feel good. If she didn't have a public image to maintain she might've asked him to touch her again. She quickly changed the topic before she got any more crazy ideas.
"Ah, that's right. Long Wang, you were so fast! How were you able to see through my illusions So quickly?"
Xiao Fang shook his head.
"I'm blind remember? I can't see your illusions at all."
Li Xiang gasped.
'If what he said was true, then wouldn't that mean that all illusory techniques were useless against him?' Li Xiang thought in shock. 'I definitely need to get him into my Li Family Guild.'
"Hey, I recently got news about Li Lian after getting into the inner court."
"Oh? What news?" Xiao Fang asked.
Any news relating to Li Lian was precious news to him. They hadn't been separated for long, but he already missed her dearly.
"It seems the Matriarch has taken a liking to her, so she made Li Lian her direct disciple," Li Xiang explained with a large smile.
"Ah... is that it?" Xiao Fang replied.
"Aren't you happy for her?"
"I am, but the truth is I already knew about it for some time now."
Back when Xiao Fang was first integrating with his spirit attribute, Li Lian had come to tell him about the good news. Unfortunately his integration process took much longer than anyone expected, so he didn't get to properly congratulate her on finding a master to train under.
"Well, as you probably figured out, the Li Family Guild members aren't too welcoming to guests. The reason I brought you here was because I wanted you to tell them about your relationship with Li Lian."
Li Xiang would've done it herself, but she promised Xiao Fang during the inner court exam that she wouldn't tell anyone about it. Since she couldn't do it herself, she hoped by telling him that Li Lian became the Matriarch's direct disciple he would tell everyone himself.
Xiao Fang shook his head.
"You must forgive me, but I cannot go against Li Lian's wishes."
"Ah, but if you tell them that you are Li Lian's fiancé, I can promise you that you'll get plenty of cultivation resources every month," she tried desperately to change his mind.
Xiao Fang wasn't just a prodigy to get placed directly into the Phoenix class, he was someone that could see through every Illusory technique. Once others hear about this, top guilds might even start fighting over him.
"I'm sorry, but I can't," Xiao Fang turned her down again.
The reason why Xiao Fang didn't want people knowing that he was Li Lian's fiancé was because he didn't want to lose his customers. If people knew, then they would avoid him in fear of angering the Matriarch's only direct disciple.
Li Xiang frowned because she didn't know how she could change his mind.
"Long Wang, please take this," she said as she handed him a scroll.
"What is it?"
"It's our guild's [ Misdirection ] technique. I want you to learn it."
"I don't understand, why are you giving this to me?"
Truthfully, Xiao Fang had better techniques he'd rather learn, so he didn't think he'd have time to learn the technique she was giving him.
"Even if you aren't joining my guild, you are still connected to our Li Family Clan. Take it."
Xiao Fang didn't understand why she was so desperate to recruit him. Was it because she still thought that he was Li Lian's fiancé?
'Isn't she being too trusting of me?' Xiao Fang thought.
Xiao Fang took the scroll, but he only did it out of courtesy.
"Thank you, Li Xiang."
"Don't mention it. Ah, just don't tell anyone that I gave it to you."
Xiao Fang nodded then turned to leave. Just as he was about to open the door, he suddenly remembered something.
"I almost forgot. I've been looking for Fei Lin, do you know where I can find her?"
"Fei Lin? I think I do. Follow me, I'll take you to her."
When Li Xiang opened the door everyone that had been waiting for Xiao Fang to come out had all left. The reason they were no longer there was because of the girl that was now standing outside of her door.
When Li Xiang saw who it was she began to frown. The girl was wearing the black inner court robes, but there was a fiery red and orange dragon embroidered onto it. She was a Dragon-Class disciple.
Although Xiao Fang couldn't see her robes, he knew that she wasn't an ordinary inner court disciples because he could feel that her cultivation nearly rivalled his.
