A Senior Is Still a Senior!
My own mother is a complete bastard!
The realm of a swordsman at the age of twelve! A swordsman at the age of twelve!
Moreover, what kind of educational environment did she have? Su Mei, Qin Suyi, and Cheng Lingshuang, two top swordsmen and one at the Sword God realm, taught her, which enabled her to break through to the Sword God realm at the age of fifteen or sixteen.
As for her stepmother... she was taught by her stepmother, Su Mei.
At that time, he was the second most talented and the most skilled in the Tai Xu Sword Sect. He surpassed the senior sister Lin Chaoyu when he was nine years old, but even so, he was still far from becoming a sword god.
In such a teaching environment, my own mother broke through to the Sword God realm at the age of twelve.
When Li Sushang heard these things back then, she didn't feel anything. But after breaking through to the Sword God realm, Li Sushang realized that her mother was a purebred bastard.
The difference in their aptitudes is enormous.
To put it more bluntly, Li Sushang needs to practice swordsmanship, while Cheng Lingshuang doesn't. "Supreme freedom, wielding the sword with a pure heart," even when Cheng Lingshuang is idly weaving cloth, that's considered cultivation...
Moreover, this person's hair color is not naturally white, but turned from black to white - which means that Cheng Lingshuang's Honkai Energy is extremely high. Even if it is not as good as Kaslana's bloodline cheat, it will not be much lower. After all, this kind of phenomenon is rare throughout history.
This kind of talent is something even the protagonist of a fantasy novel wouldn't dare to use. It's something only a supporting character would use to create a sense of satisfaction for the protagonist.
Unfortunately, Cheng Lingshuang may be a supporting character, but Li Sushang is not the main character either!
Of course, it's not like there's no way to win. Li Sushang figured that if she secretly put on the Jade Knight: Moon's Shadow and then slapped her little mother in the back, she could definitely win.
But if we win this time, things will get really bad later...
So Li Sushang could only pout and remain silent, as there was truly no hope for this matter.
Instead of hoping to defeat her own mother in a fair and square competition, she might as well find a way to bully the vixen maidservant beside her. After all, this girl is a real pushover; her talent, that is, her natural ability and comprehension, are limited.
If I hadn't failed, I probably would have remained at this level for the rest of my life.
Although it's not very nice to say it like this, Li Sushang felt that Rita's talent was only comparable to that of her stepmother.
Bianka is undoubtedly the most talented among them. Although she can't cultivate with every move like Cheng Lingshuang, Bianka has no level cap and can level up as long as she has enough experience.
The second is Cheng Lingshuang, for reasons already explained.
The third is Li Sushang herself.
The following... may be a bit counterintuitive.
In Li Sushang's opinion, although her aunt could not beat the old woman, she was more talented than the old woman.
Fu Hua's comprehension may be okay, but her innate talent is actually mediocre even among geniuses.
The four sword masters present, ranked from highest to lowest skill level, are Cheng Lingshuang, Li Sushang, Fu Hua, and Su Mei.
But the problem is, Fu Hua is the one who has been using the Sword God technique the longest among everyone present!
Li Sushang strongly suspects that Fu Hua's ability to create the Sword God title was due to her own great-grandmaster giving her a cheat code back then...
Well, Li Sushang wasn't wrong. After all, Fu Hua had an extra Divine Sound compared to other Fusion Warrior, which was equivalent to a full attribute bonus... But even so, Fu Hua was considered relatively weak among the Flame-Chasers back then.
But putting that aside, the very last thing... naturally refers to Rita and her stepmother Qin Suyi, who are right beside her.
Both of them were very mediocre geniuses...
"I sensed a malice."
Rita rested her chin on her hand and looked around.
"Really?" Cheng Lingshuang also glanced around, but found nothing unusual, so she turned her gaze back to Li Sushang. "I really hope that one day you will be able to beat me, Susang."
Cheng Lingshuang rarely showed a gentle smile.
Although she initially went to be Li Sushang's concubine with the intention of finding an interesting toy, so many years have passed, and even though Cheng Lingshuang is very unhappy with her daughter's youthful face and large breasts, she has never actually severed their relationship.
She would be genuinely happy if this girl could truly surpass her.
"... Forget it."
To Li Sushang, it sounded like her own mistress was trying to seduce her into offering herself up to be beaten.
Only a fool would do something like that!
After finally mastering the Sword God technique and no longer getting beaten up so easily, now I have to walk right into their trap? I, Li Sushang, am not an innocent victim! I may have big breasts, but I'm not stupid!
"Stop causing trouble, all of you. If you keep going, the others will be here soon," Liu Bai said quietly.
Ragna is also a neighbor on the same floor, and he's already being quite ethical by not going out to join in the fun. Oh, and Kiana too.
There were quite a few people in the room, but compared to everyone else, this was nothing!
"Grandmaster is right. You two shouldn't embarrass yourselves here." Su Mei smiled gently, grabbed her junior sister and daughter with one hand each, and pulled them out, glancing at Mei at the same time.
This PhD student is really being dishonest today, actually trying to drag them down with him?
Those old predecessors from the Previous Era are about to emerge. Hopefully, it will still be a situation of multiple powers vying for supremacy, rather than everyone uniting to fight against those old predecessors from the Previous Era.
As one of the few wise people here who understands human nature, Su Mei naturally couldn't have imagined what possibilities the awakening of the Flame-Chasers of the Previous Era would bring.
Overall, this is a good thing in the grand scheme of things, but it might not be a good thing in their daily lives—after all, too many people appeared at once.
If the threat is low, it's fine; but if the threat is high, then it could really be a case of the feudal lords attacking Dong Zhuo.
Avoid associating with Mei now.
"However, on the other hand, Grandmaster, you should also be prepared... in all aspects."
"...I know."
Among his own grand-disciple generation, the most caring and devoted disciple might just be this biggest traitor from the original timeline.
A double entendre... no, a triple entendre.
Preparations for my and Bianka's nightlife.
Preparations for what will happen after this gets out.
Preparations for what might happen after the resurgence of the people from the Previous Era.
So troublesome...
Fortunately, I hadn't planned to stay overnight.
Liu Bai rubbed his head.
"Then... I'm leaving too." Mei wasn't stupid. Although she wasn't as good at manipulating people's hearts as Su Mei, she was still intelligent. After a little reaction, she not only understood Su Mei's words, but also understood the meaning behind Su Mei's glance at her.
This is so troublesome...
Mei sighed inwardly as she led the Gray Serpent away.
"Speaking of which, Gray Serpent, are you really not going to call Liu Bai' Dad'?" After walking a distance outside the door, Mei asked after confirming that no one was around.
"... What does this have to do with you?"
The Gray Serpent paused briefly before asking.
He doesn't actually care what the name is; the main issue is Mobius's attitude.
Mobius wanted things to be done officially, so he would address her as Lord Mobius or Lord Serpent. If Mobius agreed, the Gray Serpent wouldn't mind calling her "Mom."
But no matter what, this matter has nothing to do with Dr. Mei in front of us!
He knew that Lady Sakura liked to build father-son relationships everywhere, but he had never heard that Dr. Mei liked this too.
"Just asking out of the blue."
Mei counted carefully and found that Mobius had too many cards in his hand.
So many that if Danzhu Cangxuan were to be resurrected, Mobius's own faction could rival any of the current civilizations...
"Do you need a godmother?"
"... Sorry, thank you, we don't need it." Gray Serpent immediately understood what Mei wanted to do.
Using yourself as a tool to build relationships?
Sorry, I really can't do that.
With his big boss about to appear, Gray Serpent's tone towards Mei changed from reverence to respect; he wouldn't risk his life at this critical juncture.
"Don't you still have Prometheus? Most of Prometheus should still be intact in the Moth Chasers to Fire, right? And Schicksal also has the Imaginary Archive, which comes from the same source as Prometheus."
"... That's true."
Mei thought about it for a moment, then left alone without arguing.
Gray Serpent watched Mei leave, and then he fell into deep thought.
Speaking of which, how should I report to Lord Serpent once he awakens...?
Chapter 473 You're still the senior!
After watching the others leave, Liu Bai, seeing Rita's smiling gaze, decisively chose to transform into a ghost.
Don't mess with that, Liu Bai knows exactly what Rita is thinking.
If I really stay, I'll definitely be caught in a bind...
Okay, this sounds tempting, but at this time... restraint, I have to restrain myself.
Okay, actually, going to bed isn't the big problem. The problem is that Liu Bai is also an acquaintance. If we mess around in bed for too long, the problem will be that it will expose the fact that my body can prolong life.
Then I really don't need peace anymore... or the only way to find peace is to fast forward to marriage.
But as I said before, it's best not to do these things right now.
So, under Rita's disappointed gaze, Liu Bai teleported away.
"Liu Bai is gone."
Bianka glanced at Rita.
She knew what her best friend was thinking, but she also knew that Liu Bai had never intended to sleep with her.
"Doesn't Lady Bianka think it's a pity?"
"... There's nothing to regret."
Bianka paused for a moment before calmly replying.
"Liu Bai never intended to stay in the first place."
"Lady Bianka, you sound guilty—if he doesn't intend to stay, we can find a way to keep him here."
Rita looked at her best friend, who was both old-fashioned and girlish, and a mischievous, instigating smile appeared on her face.
"Lady Bianka, did you really think that Liu Bai only wanted to sleep with me from the beginning?"
If there's no atmosphere, create one; once the atmosphere is there, take the initiative!
If she hadn't seized the opportunity presented by the atmosphere and taken the initiative, would she have been able to secure the first kill?
"Lady Bianka, you should have been more proactive. For example, you could have taken Liu Bai's hand, put on a pitiful expression, and then subtly pressed your body against him while using your other hand to start undressing..."
"Wait, wait, wait! Rita, where did you learn all this knowledge?" Bianka's face flushed as she watched Rita vividly impart her experience to her.
"A summary of lessons learned afterward," Rita replied calmly with a smile.
"I... I'm still not in a hurry." Bianka's tone was a little awkward, and she awkwardly twirled her blonde hair behind her ear with her fingers.
"Not in a hurry? Does Lady Bianka intend to do it after the wedding?" Rita smiled slightly. Today, she was going to... cough cough, teach Bianka a good lesson.
"Isn't this normal? Aren't Mom and Dad the same?"
"Hmm... This is quite normal for Mr. Siegfried and Lady Cecilia."
Rita thought about it and realized that while that was true, Siegfried was a delusional teenager back then, while Cecilia was a Schicksal figure from a traditional education.
Even if these two people are attracted to each other and have ulterior motives, they wouldn't have the guts to do so.
But what's the situation now?
With just a word from Liu Bai, the Archbishop of Schicksal could strip naked and offer himself up in bed.
Who knows, Cecilia might be the last Schicksal Saintess to receive Schicksal "traditional education," and who knows where the future Schicksal Saintesss will go...
Okay, maybe it won't collapse. If nothing unexpected happens, the next Saintess of Schicksal will either be Kiana or Bianka...
And let's not even talk about Schicksal; those guys outside, aren't they all thieves with both the desire and the guts?
If Liu Bai gave them the chance, most people would really dare to step up!
