After the time travel, my cheat program disappeared.

The only useful information is that the spirit beasts near Frostwynn City seem to be rioting.

However... Shi Yan's fingertip stopped on one of the commissions.

"Investigate the suspicious demonic cultivators near Shuangyong City." She thought of the Changhuan Cult woman who had tried to harass her before.

No... that was probably reported beforehand.

never mind--

Anyway, moral integrity is something that has long since been lost somewhere.

With a heavy heart, Shi Yan stepped into the tavern.

Upon seeing Shi Yan's seemingly frail and unfamiliar figure, the laughter in the tavern suddenly intensified.

but--

Those who act recklessly are mostly those at or above the Crystallization Realm, or those who appear to be wealthy and powerful.

The weaker ones could only fawn and agree.

But... the tavern owner suddenly put down her wine glass.

She looked intently at Shi Yan, and the corners of her bright red lips suddenly turned up slightly.

"A familiar taste..."

"What a cute girl..."

Shi Yan, under the boss's gaze, approached her.

Recalling the game's events, Shi Yan took a small bag of spirit stones from his ring and pushed it in front of the proprietress.

The bag was bulging, containing exactly one hundred spirit stones.

"Hello, sister..." she smiled sweetly, "Can I ask you something?"

"Ah~~~" A smooth and delicate hand gently rested on the back of Shi Yan's hand.

Shi Yan gritted his teeth and didn't pull his hand back.

You've already built up a lot of goodwill towards someone, so what's wrong with letting them touch your hand?

"Of course." The proprietress leaned forward, her neck swaying, and her lips brushed against Shi Yan's ear, one hand resting on the counter.

"Little...sister...sister..."

Part 140: A teacher's words: Never submit to anyone! [3K words in one chapter]

A warm, humid breeze blew past my ears, carrying the fragrance of sweet grapes being peeled, squeezed, and crushed.

Shi Yan's body stiffened, and he felt like he was completely unwell.

"I've been teased!"

"She's being teased!"

My heart was pounding, and my fingers, which were pressed against the tavern counter, clenched unconsciously.

Shi Yan avoided eye contact.

Then--

He was captivated by the graceful and alluring lines behind the tavern owner.

Although the tavern owner's front-end armor was only average, it couldn't compare to Jun Qianrou at all, and it was also slightly inferior to Wen Ruya.

That is, they are at the same level as me, but within arm's reach.

But... as she turned and took a step, she resembled a willow swaying and a flower smiling in its first bloom.

When she leans down, the lines drawn below her slender waist in the cheongsam are already breathtaking.

The proprietress supported herself on the counter with one hand and gently placed the other hand on the back of Shi Yan's hand.

She smiled as she watched Shi Yan's reaction.

With every gesture and raised eyebrow, her soft and alluring charm was fully revealed.

"What an adorable little girl..."

"The smell on my body..."

"It's also very familiar...and very...sweet."

It even made her want to take a bite.

Shi Yan tried his best to control his breathing, shifting his gaze away from the landlady's slender waist and the glimpse of snow-white skin revealed by the side slit of her cheongsam.

This woman... is so horny!

In a world of fantasy and martial arts, a fairy in a cheongsam, halter top, and black stockings suddenly appears.

Thinking back to the game, the proprietress could only unlock her outfit after reaching maximum affection... a bright red, deep-V, backless evening gown similar to the one worn on a cruise to St. Louis.

Shi Yan suddenly felt a dryness in her throat and subconsciously wanted to swallow.

She is quite different from Wen Ruya.

The proprietress in front of me is the real elder sister.

Although Wen Ruya could be considered an older sister in terms of age, she had grown up in the righteous immortal sect, Shangyue Sect.

Even after falling into the demonic path, he was constantly caught between chasing and fighting back.

In addition, there's Wen Ruya's "loyal" personality and her youthful appearance, which doesn't seem much older than her own.

It can be said that...

Although it is 'demon', it is not 'defense' enough.

The proprietress whispering sweet nothings in his ear was completely different at this moment, and Shi Yan even felt a little overwhelmed.

That's too arrogant.

Even when you max out the affection level in the game, there aren't any such weird CGs or lines.

Can--

Shi Yan felt the landlady's hand holding his right hand.

She recalled Wen Ruya, who had appeared in Nanjun City, and Shi Jiuzhou, whom she had brought out of the "Sword Tomb".

Also.

Reality is not a game.

In the game, Wen Ruya will not appear in the 'newbie village', and she will not sacrifice the entire "Thirty-Three Sword Pavilion" to break through.

In the bar... the way people looked at Shi Yan changed.

Although the proprietress did have a habit of flirting with good-looking strangers, they had never seen her actually make physical advances.

The last guy who tried to flirt with the landlady is probably already chewed up by the wild beasts outside Frostwind City.

"What is my sister saying?" Shi Yan's voice sounded a little weak.

This ancient jade seems to be getting worse and worse.

The other party easily discovered that she was a woman.

Is it because I've been spending too much money lately that the ancient jade is almost overflowing?

How could that be?

Shi Yan chuckled inwardly, but one thing remained unwavering—

How could I possibly submit to someone else!

Relying on the fact that he had won the other party's favor, Shi Yan quickly pulled his hand away from the proprietress's hand, and then turned the tables by placing his hand on the back of the proprietress's hand.

The touch from my fingertips was smooth and slightly cool, as warm and smooth as fine jade.

Shi Yan took the proprietress's hand and made her hold the bag of spirit stones in her hand.

"Hiss—" It seemed like there was a bunch of snakes living in the tavern; all that was missing was the phrase "terrifying."

The group that had initially mocked Shi Yan's frailty now looked at her with admiration and pity.

They seemed to have already foreseen Shi Yan's fate.

It was an honor for him that the landlady took the initiative to flirt with him.

But... this kid actually tried to flirt back.

That would be a sin.

This proprietress is no ordinary person; her identity is practically one of the top ten unsolved mysteries in the cultivation world.

Almost every town of any size has a tavern like this, and a proprietress runs it.

Moreover, the proprietress in every tavern is the same person.

Someone once traveled between two towns using talismans for an experiment, only to find the landlady just looking at him with a slight smile, and then asking him... "What would you like to order now? The same as before, please?"

A group of idle people also spontaneously organized themselves and visited hundreds of towns at the same time.

Finally confirmed... in hundreds or thousands of towns.

Each of them has a female boss in charge.

"An avatar outside the body".

There is only one explanation.

But... that would be a little too much.

Only cultivators at the Nascent Soul Realm can separate a sliver of their divine soul to travel the world, and the Shadow Demon Sect's Demon Soul Incarnation Technique is already a secret skill renowned throughout the region.

To be able to manifest so many avatars at the same time, what level of cultivation does she need?

The group of people in the tavern seemed to already envision the proprietress's expression turning icy cold the next second, and then chopping up this arrogant 'kid' and feeding him to the dogs.

however--

The proprietress just chuckled softly, sounding quite pleased with herself.
