Magic Sect of Beauties: The Strongest Mage is in a Cultivation World

Less than a day had passed since Yang Wei returned to the sect, but now it was the next bright and early morning. He sat at the edge of a cliff, soaking in the beauty of Grand Elder Peak──his own piece of land in the sect.

Yang Wei didn't care much about things like status or wealth. As long as he got respect, he wouldn't complain about anything. That's why he never bothered to assert dominance as the sect's ruler, even though he had the power to. He wasn't bothered when Yuèhuī Ménglóng insisted he start from the bottom upon joining the sect.

To him, those were just trivialities. . .

As long as he got what he wanted, he didn't need to chase after authority just to look cool and in control──it was somewhat like a snobbish child giving away their sweets in school to attract a crowd of "friends" and feel superior.

In other words, a Young Master... Yang Wei thought.

He sighed as he watched the sun rise.

"I really love this place!"

That much was clear from his voice.

While it wasn't as huge as his domain back in the Magic World which was larger than the entire sect, it was still nice to enjoy the solitude. Now, if he wanted to practice secret cultivation, he could just choose from one of the 2,000 caves in Grand Elder Peak and cultivate there!Nôv(el)B\\jnn

"Yawn~ Still, I'm a little hungry!"

The young stretched out his arms tiredly.

He hadn't slept for a little over 600 days, and it was slowly taking its toll on his cultivation body.

Mu Lingxi had already returned to the Mu Clan settlement. Yang Wei was excited to see Liu Yan again, but she had a lot on her plate, especially since she was helping him prepare his own peak in the sect. Mu Lingxi mentioned that she was on the verge of breaking through to the Nascent Soul Realm, but she was still struggling with a severe bottleneck.

Yang Wei rubbed his chin.

"Hmm, I wonder if Big Sis Liu would let me... I mean, with my dual cultivation physique, I'm sure I could easily help her break through. And it'd be even more effective now that I've formed a golden core, right?"

Then, someone leaned on Yang Wei's back, and he felt two soft, big balls of meat pressing against him. They weren't as big as Liu Yan's or Huo Yue's, but they were slightly bigger than Mu Lingxi's and had a very nice shape, probably the best shape of most of the women he'd slept with.

He could easily tell who this woman was just by analyzing the feel of her breasts gently pressing against his back, and there was also her sweet scent that tickled his nose a bit──it was the kind of scent that could make your eyes water up like the irritating squirt of an onion.

Still, he wanted to be sure who it was.

"Darling~" whispered the soft voice of the woman into his ears. "You should've come to see me if you returned today~"

Yang Wei turned back to look at the owner of this soft, charming voice.

It was Mu Lin.

"Lin'er!" Yang Wei exclaimed, looking genuinely glad to see her. He quickly rose to his feet and wrapped his arms around her waist, lifting her up as he spun her around. When he stopped, their foreheads were touching, and they couldn't stop smiling at each other, like they were both part of some intriguing piece of art.

With a cheeky grin, Mu Lin fluttered her eyes in a playfully seductive manner at Yang Wei. "Hmm~~ what's this? It seems I don't even need to ask if you missed me or not, this says a lot~"

They pressed their faces closer together and gently nibbled on each other's lips, soon deepening into a passionate kiss. Yang Wei savored the taste of Mu Lin's tender lips and hot, wet tongue after so many years. When they broke their kiss, they were both panting, and Mu Lin had a slightly dazed look from the tantalizing and delicious kiss.

"It seems that dual cultivation physique of yours has improved quite a lot~ I can feel my cultivation flourishing just by being so close and intimate with you, my love~~"

Yang Wei chuckled.

"I don't think you need me for your cultivation to flourish, Lin'er. If anything, I'm sure you're already an Early-stage Core Formation cultivator, right?"

A micro-expression of a frown appeared on Mu Lin's face, but it quickly vanished, replaced by a fake smile as she gently broke the hug with Yang Wei and adjusted her qipao while looking away.

Yang Wei felt a clear sense of confusion about Mu Lin's sudden change in mood. He had a likely answer in mind, but it was hard for him to believe, even if it seemed like the only possible explanation. "Lin'er, is something wrong?" he asked her.

Mu Lin cleared her throat loudly, then turned back to face Yang Wei with a bright smile on her face, revealing all her white teeth like rows of pearls. She rummaged through her storage pouch and pulled out a big red pill with a silver crest on it──spirit refined six times!

The black-haired beauty showed the pill to Yang Wei, who immediately became interested, and she proudly bragged, "As your most capable woman and future wife, I decided to get you a present for when you become a Core Formation cultivator!" She held the pill closer to his face. "Do you like this treasure?!"

Yang Wei rubbed his chin and leaned forward to get a better look at it. Knowing it was spirit-refined over five times meant it was far superior to most things he had crafted himself.

That reminds me... I really should spirit-refine my Night Eater and that Star Flame Sword that Meixiu gave me. I think with my current level of experience, I'd be able to spirit-refine anything for at least 8 cycles.

His focus blinked back to the Core Formation-level pill before him.

"This is a 5th-grade Core Strengthening Pill... Where did you find it?"

Mu Lin gently poked him on the nose with her index finger, winked, and said, "I got it at an auction. It only cost around 100,000 high-grade spirit stones! I even had to deal with an arrogant man who wanted to steal my items... And hey, if you're interested, we could go to the next auction in about two weeks or so." Her smile brightened even more, now looking very genuine.

"We could make it a date, you know!"

"Mhm, sure! I'd like that..." Yang Wei smiled mildly.

He was still a little worried that Mu Lin wasn't happy, but if she wanted them to go on a date, then that was good enough for him──at least that would make her happy.

"Oh──?!"

Mu Lin realized she hadn't finished talking about the Core Strengthening Pill she had and waved it before Yang Wei to draw his attention back to it.

"I talked with Eldest Brother Zhong, and he told me it'd be a perfect pill for you. The pill is made from rare ingredients that fortify the golden core, making it more resilient and capable of withstanding intense Qi fluctuations. It even accelerates the progression from Early- to Mid-stage Core Formation! It's easily a Saint-grade treasure!"

Yang Wei scratched his head a bit, unsure of how to tell Mu Lin what he wanted to say.

Meanwhile, Mu Lin took it in a different way entirely, her eyes gleaming like stars as she stared at him with pure affection and amazement. "Tell me what you think already?! Or are you so surprised you don't even know what to say?!"

Yang Wei looked to the side and began, "Well, I... uh, Lin'er..."

Mu Lin edged closer, her hands clasped together in anticipation.

Finally gathering the confidence to speak, the young man continued, "Uh, Lin'er... I formed a celestial golden core, so I can't use just any type of pill to cultivate. If I were to use this one considering my celestial cultivation base..."

The look of happiness melted off Mu Lin's face, and she turned away, trying to hide the pain and frustration she harbored. "...you'd suffer a backlash, right?"

Although Mu Lin wasn't facing him, all Yang Wei could do was nod.

Mu Lin wiped away some incoming tears and put the pill back in her storage pouch. "I-, I almost harmed you with this pill. I didn't know you'd be able to form a celestial golden core since the requirements for it are..." she lowered her head even more, "...rare."

It was a delicate scene for Yang Wei. To him, it felt like a replay of what happened after his first time dual cultivating with Mu Lin──she felt deeply insecure and often misunderstood everything he tried to explain.

He was cautious of saying the wrong thing and risking her storming off again.

"You can have it. It's a very powerful pill for any cultivator with a sun or great-sun golden core. Once you reach the Core Formation Realm, it will be of great help to you."

Mu Lin tightened her fists and replied, "I... I won't get that opportunity."

Yang Wei raised an eyebrow, asking, "Why?"

Mu Lin gently lifted the side of her dress to reveal her white thighs and her undergarments, but that wasn't what she wanted to show him. It became clear when Yang Wei saw a very large spirit wound on Mu Lin's body.

"I couldn't overcome the clouds of tribulation... the lightning... it destroyed a piece of my spirit root."

Beads of sweat ran down Yang Wei's shivering face as he looked at the painful wound that marred her beautiful, soft skin──it covered more than half of her slender, yet round waist.

"No..."

That was all he managed to speak out using his voice that now trembled with heavy concern.
