Level Up in Martial World
Chapter 256 - 256: Wang Shi

As Lu Zhen and his woman walked along the passageway, he suddenly looked around with his crimson gaze at his woman.

"You guys go to my room. I have something more important to do," Lu Zhen said as he was about to leave.

"Something more important than us?" Jiang Xue tugged at Lu Zhen with lustful eyes.

Lu Zhen's eyes flashed with amusement as he walked up to her in silence and touched her face, looking at her with his crimson eyes like a devil.

His crimson eyes looked like hellfire that could burn her in minutes.

Jiang Xue closed her eyes in anticipation; however, Lu Zhen didn't do anything, much to her disappointment. She frowned as she opened her eyes, seeing the crimson eyes of Lu Zhen, who was deeply looking at her without a single word.

"Yes, something more important than you guys," Lu Zhen spoke with an apathetic tone as he coldly turned around, leaving the place, while Jiang Xue fell to the ground.

She broke out in a cold sweat that made her clothes stick to her, revealing her perfect physique; however, that wasn't her concern. Instead, Jiang Xue looked at the broad back of Lu Zhen with a terrified expression.

At that moment, Jiang Xue felt like she was closer to death than ever, with her demise just a thin line away with just a movement, as if she was hanging by a rope.

A small blush unconsciously formed on her face, even with her terrified eyes, as her body told another tale.

Xia Mei shook her head with speechlessness.

"You know he would have really killed you," she spoke, causing everyone to be stunned.

The twelve women beside them seemed to tremble as their eyes seemed to flash with regret.

Seeing this, Xia Mei smirked. "Now you guys can't back up."

"Mistress, we aren't backing up at all, especially after facing such hardship," one of the girls spoke.

Xia Mei's eyes glinted with amusement as she looked at the girl who had spoken.

"What's your name, girl?"

"My name is Wang Shi." Wang Shi spoke with narrowed eyes.

"Hehehe." Xia Mei laughed as she walked towards the room.

"You guys, follow me."

Lily stayed by Xia Mei's side carefully, like she was her big sister, while Jiang Xue and Huang Li stayed behind her, and the twelve women followed up.

From the lineup, the status was evident.

"We will be staying in the room until he comes. It will be a fun night." Xia Mei spoke while licking her lips.

Suddenly, the twelve women felt a shiver run down their spine.

After they settled in, they all rested on the huge king-size bed with Lu Zhen's name drawn from flowers in the bed.

It was big enough for all of them to sit and even have plenty of space left.

After they settled, an awkward silence enveloped the entire room as nobody spoke a single word, and nobody wanted to talk as well.

Suddenly, Wang Shi moved to Jiang Xue and tapped her with a smile on her face.

"Sis - can I call you sister?" Wang Shi asked with a smile on her face.

Jiang Xue looked at her with her dead stare.

"Hmm?" Wang Shi frowned, seeing the unresponsive Jiang Xue.

"Yes, you can call me sister," Jiang Xue finally spoke after a long time.

"Umm… do you know why Mistress Xia Mei talked while licking her lips in such a strange manner?" Wang Shi spoke with hesitation.

Jiang Xue's eyes glinted with amusement when she heard this. "You will find out soon when Lu Zhen enters; however," a thoughtful expression appeared on her face, "it will be your best night and the worst night both together, which you will yearn for every day. Unfortunately, Lu Zhen might never give you a chance depending on your performance."

"Hmm?" Wang Shi frowned with speechlessness as she kept quiet.

Just like that, the room descended into complete silence as the women waited for Lu Zhen in anticipation.

…

Lu Zhen slowly headed down a different passageway, a smirk playing on his face.

"I am finally going to complete my plan," he thought, his crimson eyes flickering with a strange light.

Finally, he reached a room locked with a metal door, guarded by two unmoving wooden puppets. As Lu Zhen approached, the puppets' heads moved mechanically, nodding in acknowledgment.

"Did anything happen while I was gone?"

The puppets opened and closed their mouths as if they were speaking, but no sound came from them.

"There is no problem, young master."

Lu Zhen mimicked their mouth movements and nodded. "Very well then." He tapped them both on their heads.

Boom!

They turned back to their original form of two wooden planks.

"These are quite useful," Lu Zhen thought with satisfaction. After gaining plant Qi, just using the sheer Qi itself, Lu Zhen had been able to accomplish numerous feats that couldn't even be achieved with combat arts and a normal martial artist might never be able to accomplice.

It was similar to the powers of the mages.

"I guess I know why only first-stage martial artists can advance their Qi now," Lu Zhen thought.

Almost all the cultivation techniques actually started with basic elements like fire, wood, ice, earth, and many more—at least that Lu Zhen knew of in the town.

However, once they are advanced to their unique versions, the advanced Qi will be things that a normal martial artist is never capable of doing and can't do, no matter how hard they try.

Lu Zhen touched the two human-sized planks, and a blinding green light flashed as he absorbed them.

His crimson eyes flashed with a green light.

He opened the huge door, and immediately his vision was filled with a futuristic room that was filled with machinery.

There, some people were working with a serious expression on their faces.

As Lu Zhen entered, everyone's gaze was drawn to him, which made their eyes widen as they hurriedly stopped what they were doing and bowed to him.
