The martial world is full of dangers.

Chapter 275 The System Determines Treatment

Wu Tao subconsciously replied, "Fairy Liu is indeed very beautiful."

Then Wu Tao struggled, wanting to push Liu Rumei away.

...

Because he realized that if the ambiguous atmosphere between them continued, he truly feared he wouldn't be able to hold on.

Wu Tao and Liu Rumei struggled, and before they knew it, they had neared the bed.

Liu Rumei pushed hard, sending Wu Tao tumbling onto the bed, then straddled him.

Her full, firm, perky buttocks pressed against Wu Tao's sensitive area, and her head naturally moved to his ear.

Liu Rumei continued, "Being in prison for so many days must have been unpleasant. Come relax with me."

As she spoke, she actually pulled Wu Tao's left hand and guided it into her bodice.

The next second, Wu Tao felt himself grasping...

Liu Rumei's cherry lips parted, she let out a soft cry and collapsed into Wu Tao's embrace, her eyes languid and her phoenix eyes seeming to drip with moisture.

"Why is it so hot in here? I'm so hot..."

Liu Rumei was bold and quickly stripped off all her clothes, leaving nothing on.

Her snow-white jade body stood naked before Wu Tao. Her high, proud twin peaks, her slender waist, barely holdable, her plump and fertile form, and her fiery red hair cascaded down to her pert buttocks.

At this moment, Liu Rumei was as alluring as a peach blossom, enchantingly captivating, and even more enticing.

Wu Tao, who was already young, felt a fierce fire burning within him under Liu Rumei's provocation.

He swallowed, almost unable to control himself and partake in the ultimate pleasure.

He suddenly bit the tip of his tongue. The strong taste of blood instantly cleared his lust-addled mind.

Wu Tao pushed away Liu Rumei, who wore a bewildered expression, and strode out of the living room, leaving behind a Liu Rumei with an inscrutable expression.

...

After this incident, Liu Rumei felt too embarrassed to bid farewell to Wu Tao and left the premises.

After Liu Rumei departed, Wu Tao slapped himself twice.

Rubbing his swollen cheeks, he silently admonished himself that he could not be unfaithful to Xu Sheng, who was waiting for him far away.

...

On the other side!

After leaving, Liu Rumei did not return to her cave abode but instead went directly to a magnificent palace.

This grand palace was called the Lu Residence.

The owner of the Lu Residence was the Vice City Lord of Tongguan City, Lu Liang!

After a series of tedious procedures, Liu Rumei arrived in an extremely luxurious room.

The entire room was hundreds of meters wide, with walls made of spirit stones.

Not only that, but rubies, amethysts, emeralds, and blue agates were inlaid to form landscapes of plum blossoms, lotuses, chrysanthemums, and bamboo, representing the four seasons.

Most importantly, the room was filled with abundant spiritual energy, making ordinary cultivators feel refreshed and slightly improve their spiritual power with just a breath.

In the center of the room, a movable wooden partition made of thousand-year-old nanmu cleverly divided the large room into an inner and outer chamber.

Upon entering the inner chamber, one could see a large, sturdy, luxurious bed made of ten-thousand-year-old evergreen wood.

The bedding on the bed was made of cashmere from purple-gold mountain goats, colored a noble purple, soft and fluffy, as if lying among the clouds.

Outside the large bed hung a canopy made of five-colored silk spun by five-colored silkworms, looking extremely beautiful and pleasing to the eye.

Beside it, there was a bronze incense burner that constantly emitted a faint, elegant fragrance.

The floor of the outer chamber was paved with white jade, and on both sides of the walls stood bookshelves filled with precious jade slips.

In addition, the three tables and eighteen stools were all meticulously carved from five-thousand-year-old yellow pear wood, exquisitely elegant and undeniably noble.

By the window, there was an exceptionally exquisite vanity table, with a mirror at least five meters wide and a vanity surface ten meters long, containing hundreds of beauty and makeup immortal products.

Liu Rumei, at this moment, knelt on the white jade-paved floor of the outer chamber.

At this point, she was still somewhat bewildered.

She didn't understand why her mistress wanted her to seduce that ordinary-looking, wooden young man.

"By the way, is that kid named Wu Tao a eunuch?"

"How could he have pushed me away even when I was so openly seductive? Is my charm really that poor?"

Liu Rumei's teeth itched at the thought, as every woman wished to captivate all the men in the world.

...

"Well, how did your test go?"

A clear, cold, and melodious voice suddenly echoed from the inner chamber.

The voice was cold and did not betray any hidden emotions.

The wooden partition slid inward, and Lv Yuehua, dressed in a white dress, emerged with a graceful and refined demeanor.

The white, thin dress clung to her soft skin, revealing her curvaceous figure. Her jade-like feet were white and crystal clear, like the finest jade.

She casually wore a pair of silver slippers, adorned with five deep red nail polish, exuding a mysterious allure.

Judging by her appearance, she was the same white-robed woman who had easily subdued Wu Tao that day.

Liu Rumei, who had been looking down, suddenly raised her head and stared at Lv Yuehua for a full half a minute, until a hint of blush appeared on Lv Yuehua's delicate face, before she replied.

"Reporting to Miss, that young man named Wu Tao is like a block of wood. I even abandoned my modesty and stripped naked, yet he didn't touch me. Instead, he pushed me away."

...

"Is that so? You did well. Go find Xiao Hong to claim your reward."

Upon hearing this, Lv Yuehua felt an inexplicable surge of joy, and the icy aura emanating from her body lessened considerably.

Liu Rumei, being astute, was slightly taken aback before bowing to Lv Yuehua and taking her leave.

...

The next day.

Wu Tao returned to the garden and inquired with several Foundation Establishment cultivators resting in the garden for accurate information.

After consolidating the gathered intelligence, Wu Tao realized that Liu Rumei had not fully disclosed the benefits of becoming a Silver Armored Guard.

Besides what Liu Rumei had previously mentioned, the most crucial benefit of becoming a Silver Armored Guard was yet to be revealed.

Tongguan City was one of the seventy-two major cities of the human race, located on the very edge of the border.

As such, Tongguan City was the only entry and exit point for the Blood Clan, Ghost Clan, and Spirit Clan to enter human territory.

Therefore, high-level human cultivators venturing into outer race territories for opportunities had to pass through this city to return to human lands.

These high-level human cultivators brought back countless rare materials from other races. For convenience, most of them conducted transactions in Tongguan City.

Items that could lead to advancement overnight were not uncommon.

Becoming an Armored Guard provided the opportunity to be among the first to benefit.

Furthermore, the Nascent Soul stage City Lord and Vice City Lord of Tongguan City would periodically address the cultivators in the military camps to resolve doubts in their daily cultivation.

Of course, with benefits came drawbacks.

The more benefits there were, the more drawbacks naturally followed.

The mortality rate of the stationed cultivators in Tongguan City was relatively high.

The primary reason for maintaining a regular army of fifty to sixty thousand cultivators in Tongguan City was to defend against invasions from alien races.

Moreover, the Armored Guards in Tongguan City were divided into three types.

One type was the city-guard Armored Guards, who patrolled the perimeter of Tongguan City daily, responsible for maintaining order and protecting the city.

These Armored Guards were the most numerous among the entire force.

The safety factor for this type of Armored Guard was relatively high. Unless faced with a rare alien siege that occurred once a century, they generally faced no life-threatening danger.

However, the spirit stones distributed annually to these Armored Guards were not substantial. If the spirit stones were insufficient for daily cultivation, they had to find their own solutions.

For this type of Armored Guard, the Qi Refining stage cultivator teams were known as Category C teams, with their captains typically being Foundation Establishment stage cultivators.

The captains of the Category C teams were usually Core Formation stage cultivators, and the highest leader was a military commander at the early Nascent Soul stage.

Another type consisted of Foundation Establishment stage cultivator teams, known as Category B teams, with their captains typically being Core Formation stage cultivators.

There were no division captains in Category B teams, and the highest leader was a Vice City Lord responsible for military affairs, at the mid-Nascent Soul stage.

The name of this Vice City Lord was Jiang Xinglai.

...

The third type was similar to special forces soldiers in the mortal world. Ten quick-witted and powerful Armored Guards formed an elite squad.

These squads were called Category A teams.

Such squads reported directly to the City Lord.

They would be assigned special missions by the City Lord, and for each completed mission, they would receive rewards.

Not only spirit stones but also pills or treasures, and other rare items.

Of course, the risk of these missions was extremely high, and they were often related to alien races outside the human domain, prompting careful consideration.

However, for each completed mission, they could refrain from taking on other tasks for two to three years, or even decades, allowing for ample time for cultivation.
