Chapter 103 I'm Lyra
The sunlight streamed in, bringing the sound of the bustling street below.
In a room on the second floor of the Golden Bamboo Restaurant, Arden cleared his throat, catching the attention of the group. With a charming smile, he raised his hand to signal the waiter.
"The only thing missing now is fine wine,"
he suddenly announced in a smooth and confident voice,
"Waiter, bring us your best spirit wine!"
Although the spirit wine was even more expensive than the spirit rice, Arden had no choice if he wanted his plan to succeed. After all, the Crimson Butterfly Powder, a sleeping drug that even early-stage Qi Gathering realm cultivators could barely resist, worked best when mixed with liquids than with food. And right now, wine was the best choice.
The old waiter's eyes lit up at the request. He bowed deeply, a smile playing on his wrinkled lips,
"An excellent choice, young master. I have just the thing."
As the waiter shuffled away, Arden leaned back in his chair, a self-satisfied smirk on his face.
"You're in for a treat,"
he said, his eyes lingering on Isabella,
"The spirit wines of Azure Sword City are unlike anything you've ever tasted."
Moments later, the waiter returned, carefully balancing a tray with an exquisite jade bottle.
"This, esteemed guests, is our Azure Cloud Spirit Wine,"
The waiter proclaimed proudly,
"It's made using spirit fruits grown on the slopes of the Azure Sword Mountain."
Before the waiter could praise the wine further and Arden could react, Lucian pulled his fingers out of Celine's wet hole and decisively took the jade bottle from the tray.
"As guests, allow me to assist with the pouring,"
His crimson eyes glinted with amusement as he spoke.
The jade bottle was cool to the touch, its surface etched with intricate patterns of swirling clouds.
The waiter, momentarily taken aback, quickly regained his composure and bowed deeply, "Of course, of course, young master. Your generosity knows no bounds."
Saying that, he turned and quietly departed, gently shutting the door behind him…
As Lucian uncorked it, a sweet, intoxicating aroma filled the air, similar to morning mountain mists and ripe peaches.
Soon he began to pour the spirit wine into the porcelain cups before each person.
The aroma that filled the air was a combination of ripe peaches and apples, with a hint of mountain mist. The color of the wine was a pale blue.
The aroma intensified as the wine was poured, filling the private dining room with a mouth-watering fragrance.
Arden and Rex watched with barely concealed frustration as Lucian took control of the pouring. Their plan to secretly add the Crimson Butterfly Powder to the drinks had been thwarted before it could even begin.
Lucian's crimson eyes flickered with amusement as he noticed their discomfort, a smirk playing at the corners of his lips.
He didn't want to act now cause first, he needed to confirm the consequences of critically injuring or accidentally killing someone in Azure Sword city.
He also had to consider the possibility of this restaurant belonging to a powerful person and whether they would retaliate against him directly. Even if they only demanded compensation, he didn't have enough spirit stones to cover it.
And the second reason, he really wanted to taste the spirit wine.
However, just as Lucian was about to raise his cup to his lips, eager to taste the spirit wine of Azure Sword city, a sudden knock echoed through the private dining room.
"Arden, are you in there?"
A melodious feminine voice called out from behind the closed door, its tone tinged with a hint of concern and urgency.
Arden's face paled visibly all of a sudden, his eyes widening in recognition. He nearly knocked over his wine cup as he jerked upright, his earlier bravery now gone.
"M-mother?"
he spoke aloud, his voice shaky.

Before anyone could react, the door slid open with a soft rustle, revealing a stunningly beautiful woman in her early forties.
The woman's curvaceous figure was accentuated by her tight-fitting black robe, which hugged her curves in all the right places. Her waist was slim, contrasting with her full, rounded hips and ample breasts.
Her long, raven-black hair was intricately coiled atop her head, revealing her slender neck, which was adorned with jade hairpins that tinkled softly as she moved.
Her face was beautiful — almond-shaped eyes the color of honey, high cheekbones, and plump rosy lips painted a shade of pink. There was a beauty spot under her left eye.
Despite her age, her skin was flawless.
As she gracefully entered the room, her large breasts swayed gently with each step, drawing Lucian's eyes.
Her gaze settled on Arden, who seemed to shrink under her scrutiny.
"Finally found you! Arden, what are you doing here? You suddenly went out without telling me,"
she said, her voice stern yet melodious.
As she spoke, she moved further into the room, her fat hips swaying with each step. She sat into an empty seat at the table, her movements graceful.
As she sat down next to Arden, her robe shifted, revealing a tantalizing glimpse of her long, shapely legs.
Celine and Isabella exchanged glances, surprise reflected in their eyes as they looked at the stunning woman who had just joined them. Celine also quickly pulled up her panties.
Arden's heart raced as he struggled to find words, his earlier confidence shattered by his mother's sudden appearance.
"I–I was just catching up with some new friends,"
he stammered, trying to sound casual.
The mature woman raised an eyebrow, her gaze shifting to Lucian, Isabella, and Celine, who remained seated with curious expressions painted on their faces.
"And these must be your new 'friends'?"
she asked.
"Y-yes, mother,"
Arden replied, his voice strained as he gestured towards the others,
"This is Isabella, her brother Lucian, and their mother Celine. They're new to Azure Sword City."
The woman's honey-colored eyes swept over the group, lingering for a moment on Lucian. Her eyes widened slightly as she saw his handsome face, from his striking crimson eyes to the strong line of his jaw. A hint of appreciation flickered in her honey-colored eyes.
Her lips curved into a smile as she introduced herself.
"I am Lyra, Arden's mother,"
she said, her voice smooth as silk,
"It's a pleasure to meet you all."
As she spoke, she shifted her chubby ass in her seat, her robe rustling softly.
The movement caused a spoon to fall off the table, clattering to the wooden floor.
"Ah! Sorry about that!"
Lyra exclaimed, her voice tinged with embarrassment. She quickly leaned down to retrieve the fallen spoon, her ample bosom pressing against the edge of the table.
As she bent over, her robe gaped open slightly, offering Lucian an unintended view down her tits. Her full, round breasts were barely contained by her black bra, threatening to spill out at any moment.
As Lyra reached for the spoon, her honey-colored eyes abruptly widened in shock. There, beneath the table, she caught sight of something that made her breath catch in her throat.
With his foreskin peeling back, Lucian's thick cock stood erect beneath the table. The crimson head glistened with a bead of precum as Lucian noticing, internationally shifted his hips, angling his penis towards Lyra.
As their eyes met, Lucian's lips curled into a knowing smirk. He saw Lyra's honey-colored eyes widen, her lips parting slightly in a gasp as she saw the sight before her.
Lyra's beautiful face flushed a deep crimson. She quickly averted her gaze, straightening up with the retrieved spoon clutched tightly in her trembling hand.
Lyra blushed, but she quickly regained her composure. Clearing her throat, she said,
"W-well, it's a pleasure to meet you all."
Although Lucian didn't expect such a beautiful women to suddenly appear, he didn't mind "eating such a delicious meal".
"The pleasure is ours, Lady Lyra,"
he replied.
"Allow me to properly introduce ourselves. This is my sister, Isabella,"
he gestured towards her, and Lyra's gaze momentarily flickered to Celine,
"And this is our mother, Celine."
"So, um... what brings you to Azure Sword City?"
Lyra asked nodding, her voice slightly unsteady as she addressed Lucian's group.
Lucian's crimson eyes gleamed with mischief as he replied,
"We're here for the Azure Sword Sect recruitment. In fact, my sister, Isabella is already an inner sect disciple. So it's basically me, trying to enter."
At these words, Arden and Rex's faces drained of color, their eyes widening in shock and disbelief.
"I-Inner sect disciple?"
Arden stammered, his earlier bravado completely evaporated,
"IMPOSSIBLE! She isn't a Qi Gathering realm cultivator, so h-how can she be? Don't lie!"
Lucian smiled as he calmly took out an an identity token with the symbol of a silver azure sword, signifying the status of an inner sect disciple. It was actually Xander who left this for "extra security".
And now, using this identity token, Lucian would pound this woman senseless!
After all, wasn't it a mother's duty to accept the punishment on behalf of her son?
