Supreme Emperor of Mist

Chapter 177: Meeting (Lower Part)

The crowd was petrified by the arrival of the three beauties. Each of them had a look that capable of crushing a city with just a smile of theirs. Even the man who they love was almost defeated by their charm when his gaze arrived at them.

"To what sin I had done to be given a test like this today?" Qin Lan smiled as he cursed why he can't split himself into three copies to enjoy this three times. Perhaps he can do that if he brings them into the Mountain and Sea Sublime Painting, but by the time he had done that, it won't be enough for him as well.

Because Qin Lan knew that it won't be enough, even if he had ten sublime paintings in his hand.

Walking closer to him in steady steps, Hu Jia was the first to enter Private Refining Hall, followed by Zhou Mei and Peng Yan. It was like they had a deal before coming here.

Life returned to the crowd minutes after the door was closed, But their heart was still racing when remembering about what just happened.

"My heart... I think it stopped for a minute or two when they appeared. It seems that the Chief Alchemist was quite a womanizer for having three cities toppling beauty by his side..." one of the Bone layer experts chuckled.

By the time the experts left the Pill Hall, the news about Qin Lan's three city-toppling beauties has spread far and wide. Even Sun Wu Jian was smiling as he knows all three of them.

...

"What makes the three of you coming here together?" Qin Lan asked as he sat by the tea-table. A few wine jars were taken out and placed on the table as he uses the opportunity to rest his exhausted mind.

The still awkward Zhou Mei and Peng Yan then sat across Qin Lan. No matter what situation between them, the position beside Qin Lan would always be where Hu Jia would have her seat.

Coming straight to his side, Hu Jia took his head straight to her chest as she gave his head a rub. It was what Qin Lan needed the most right now after working tirelessly for so many days without rest. Even if he managed to have enough sleep to recover the exhaustion in his stamina, it wasn't enough to remove the weariness to his mental state.

"As his woman, you should remember that he's a reckless one that will not stop unless you give him a reason to do so. So, always find a reason to make him stop whatever he's doing and bring him to your side. Or else, he'll forget his priorities." Hu Jia said. She seems to be teaching the other two how to handle Qin Lan.

"..." 

The two were embarrassed with what they see as they're both eager and anxious about what Hu Jia said and done. A part of them was imagining how Qin Lan felt while they massage his head.

'Would he keep rubbing his face over my chest while I press his acupoint? Should I learn about pressure point massage before letting him do what he's doing right now?' they asked themselves.

Their short session together ended up as an educating class with Hu Jia. She kept tutoring them on how to serve Qin Lan better as the victim continued to be used as an educating puppet by Hu Jia. Their private time ended after an incense worth of time later when Sun Wu Jian's servant comes to knock on the door.

"Do you two get it? If you don't prioritize your time accordingly, this is what you'll get. All the other people are going to drag him away from you, and there's nothing you can do about it." Hu Jia said.

The two of them were like chicklings that kept nodding as they memorized what Hu Jia has taught them.

"Beloved wife, I'll have to go to brother Sun's place for a while." Qin Lan said. He gently moves himself off from her breast but finds it difficult to do so. Afraid that he'll hurt her if he forcefully did it, Qin Lan kept squirming around that part.

"Last but not least... He had zero tolerance for women. It is up to us to see if the person is suitable for him. That's what we can do to protect him. Got it?" there was a deep meaning behind her last sentence that not even the two could comprehend.

"Beloved wife..."Qin Lan rubbed his face over Hu Jia and the fabric around her chest.

"Alright. Go. Your attendance here is no longer required." Hu Jia let him off after she's done satisfying herself and her vanity for his attention.

Feeling like he was used by Hu Jia somewhat, Qin Lan left the room and followed Sun Wu Jian's servant.

Only the three of them remained inside the Private Refining Hall after Qin Lan left.

"Sister, I hope you'll be kind enough to satisfy one of my curiosity. Why are you being this kind to me? I'm sure you know that I am here not to make friends with both of you... I am here to snatch this man away and make him mine." Peng Yan felt insecure if she still unwilling to bring up this topic to talk between them.

On the battlefield of love, only the cruel and ruthless may obtain their happiness. It was the same to her father, her dead mother, and herself right now.

Even Zhou Mei had a similar thought. It just she wasn't as decisive as Peng Yan, nor as generous as Hu Jia. But no matter how indecisive she was, Zhou Mei understands one fact. Happiness is fought, not given.

And in response to both of them, Hu Jia laughed.

"I've seen death," she said. Thinking back when she was stabbed by Wei Hu Xuan, she was supposed to die back then. But in the end, Qin Lan brought her back.

"And I've seen despair without him. It was just a flash, but that flash was the scariest moment in my life," she added.

"Now, I only know about one thing. Based on your ability, mine, all of us, and the entire Qin Family as the bargaining chip... Do you think we can keep Qin Lan by our side?"

"I'm sure you know the answer inside your heart." the was a sour expression behind Hu Jia's smile.
