Shen Fei stepped out of the bathroom, his body refreshed and his mood uplifted after a soothing bath. He dried his damp hair with a towel and slipped into a set of elegant robes.
A contented smile played on his lips as he sat down for breakfast, which had been brought to his room by a maid. After finishing his meal, he left the Sacred Family compound and made his way toward the Alchemist Association.
As he walked through the bustling streets, passersby greeted him with polite nods and respectful words. Some whispered among themselves, their gazes lingering on him with admiration—or perhaps fear. Shen Fei barely acknowledged them, his mind already focused on his destination.
Upon arriving at the grand Alchemist Association, he strode inside with an air of confidence. The receptionist at the front desk straightened up instantly upon seeing him, a forced smile on her face.
"Good morning, Young Master Shen Fei," she greeted, her voice laced with cautious respect.
Shen Fei stopped and looked at her with mild curiosity. "Do you have something to say?"
The receptionist stiffened, her hands instinctively clutching the edges of the desk. "N-No, not at all!" she replied hastily, shaking her head.
Internally, however, she cursed herself. 'Damn it! Why did I even bother greeting him? This devil doesn't need pleasantries! I swear, I won't make this mistake again!'
Shen Fei merely scoffed and walked past her, his thoughts drifting elsewhere.
'Didn't that bastard Shen Hong say he would inform President Gu Yan to grant me full access to the library? Seems like he conveniently forgot.'
His crimson eyes narrowed slightly in displeasure before he shook the thought away.
Unbeknownst to him, his awakened dual cultivation physique was working its magic—a silent, passive force that made him irresistibly attractive to women. His very presence seemed to radiate a magnetic pull, drawing the curious and the fascinated.
When he arrived at the library, he moved with familiarity, heading straight for the shelves. His fingers trailed over the spines of the books as he carefully selected thirty volumes, the ones he had left unfinished yesterday.
Carrying them to a nearby table, he settled into a chair and began reading. His speed was astonishing—flipping through page after page at an almost unnatural pace.
Within moments, he had finished all thirty books. Without missing a beat, he stood, returned them to the shelf, and picked up another set of thirty, his reading speed increasing even further.
Had he been paying attention to his surroundings using his Divine Sense, he might have noticed the pair of intense eyes watching him from a distance.
Standing a few meters away, Yang Xin, the director of the Alchemist Association, observed him with growing intrigue.
She was a vision of elegance and allure, her deep purple hair tied back in a loose, flowing style. Her robes were loose yet tantalizing, exposing a generous amount of cleavage, though she carried herself with an air of authority that made it clear she was no ordinary woman.
Yang Xin was well aware of her own beauty. It was both a blessing and a curse. Despite her tireless efforts and undeniable talent, people often overlooked her accomplishments, assuming she had seduced her way to the top. The rumors irritated her, but she had learned to ignore them.
Her brown eyes studied Shen Fei with keen interest. 'What's so special about him? she wondered, crossing her arms. He's reading at an absurd speed—faster than even I, a Gold Rank Demon Spiritualist, could manage. Could President Gu Yan be mistaken?'
She tapped a slender finger against her lips. 'Shen Hong requesting full library access for his son makes sense, but why would Lord Ye Mo, the strongest Demon Spiritualist in Glory City, also support this?'
Curiosity burned in her chest, refusing to be ignored. 'No… I need to figure this out. Otherwise, how can I have peace of mind?'
A mischievous smirk crossed her lips as she decided to approach him. 'Let's see what makes you so special, little pervert Shen Fei.'
With that, she strode forward, her graceful steps bringing her closer to the enigmatic young man who had unknowingly piqued her interest.
Shen Fei was so engrossed in his reading that he failed to notice the presence of someone standing beside him. It wasn't until he finished the last book, got up to replace it with another, that he finally realized a beautiful, mature woman was watching him.
She stood close, arms crossed beneath her ample chest, emphasizing her deep cleavage—so pronounced that even her robes failed to fully conceal it.
"Aah… you're Director Yang Xin," he said in a surprised tone, though inwardly, he was rejoicing. 'Indeed, my future woman. She looks even better than in the donghua and manhua. Her figure is breathtaking, and those breasts… even bigger than Shen Xiu's. She's the definition of a ripe, mature fruit ready to be devoured.'
Yang Xin, noticing his stunned gaze lingering on her chest, felt a surge of pride. She was well aware of her beauty, and unlike many women who shied away from such attention, she embraced it. Smirking, she subtly arched her back, making her curves even more prominent before speaking in a teasing, sultry tone.
"I've heard that Little Brother Shen Fei is quite the lady killer," she purred, her golden eyes sparkling with mischief as she gave him a playful wink. "You've tasted many beauties in Glory City, haven't you? So, tell me… how do I compare to them?"
Shen Fei, momentarily lost in fantasies of having her submit to him, blurted out without thinking, "Ten out of ten."
The words left his mouth before he even realized it. Snapping back to reality, his face twitched slightly, and he quickly attempted to cover up. "Ahem—what I meant was… how could I be a lady killer or a playboy? Director Yang Xin, you must have heard wrong. I'm just a good boy who loves reading books."
Yang Xin giggled behind her delicate hand, her laughter soft yet enchanting. "Oh my, I must have misunderstood. But with someone as handsome as you, I thought the rumors might be true."
"It's all false! Completely false!" Shen Fei hurriedly waved his hands, trying to deny his rather infamous reputation.
"Fufu~" she chuckled, thoroughly enjoying his flustered state. "Alright, alright, I won't tease Little Brother anymore."
With a casual motion, she held out a gleaming purple-gold token. "Here. This is a special pass granted by the Alchemist Association. It will allow you unrestricted access to the entire library, including the most restricted sections. Consider it a gift."
Shen Fei's eyes lit up as he reached for the token. "Thank you, Director—"
But before he could grab it, Yang Xin mischievously pulled her hand away, twirling the token between her fingers. Her lips curled into a playful smirk.
"Just a simple 'thank you'?" she teased, her voice honeyed. "I thought Little Brother Shen Fei would show his gratitude to Big Sis in a more… special way."
Her brown eyes held a flirtatious glint, daring him to respond.
Shen Fei paused, a smirk tugging at the corner of his lips. 'Oh? You want to play? Fine, let's play.'
Shen Fei swept his lustful eyes across Yang Xin's alluring figure before leaning slightly closer. His voice dropped to a slow and seductive tone, unknowingly influenced by his dual cultivation physique.
"How do you want me to thank you, Big Sister?"
Yang Xin arched a brow, amused by his boldness. Before she could respond, Shen Fei smirked and added, "I know—how about I give you a massage? I'm quite skilled at it. I've heard that women with big breasts tend to suffer from back pain. My aunt, Shen Xiu, lets me massage her sometimes, and she always praises my technique. How about giving it a try?"
His gaze remained locked on her exposed cleavage, his throat moving as he swallowed a bit of saliva.
Yang Xin chuckled, her brown eyes flashing with mischief. "Does Little Brother want to massage my back… or my breasts?"
"Of course, brea—" Shen Fei instinctively began before quickly correcting himself, "Back! I meant back." Clearing his throat, he tried to recover with a confident grin. "So, how about it?"
"Fufu~ Next time," she teased, finally handing him the purple-gold token.
Shen Fei clicked his tongue, deliberately scoffing, "Tch, coward."
Yang Xin, who had just turned away, halted mid-step. Turning back, she gave him a charming yet sharp glare. "Oh? Do you really want to massage my breasts?"
Shen Fei quickly put on an innocent expression. "What breasts? I only wanted to massage your back."
She smirked at his weak excuse. "Oh, I see… You are quite good at reading, after all," she said in a playful, mocking tone, recalling how he had flipped through books at an unnatural speed earlier. Her tone then dropped into a sultry whisper. "How about a little bet? If you can become an alchemist apprentice within a week, I'll let you massage me… anywhere you want—whether it's my back… or my breasts."
Shen Fei's blood-red eyes gleamed. "Deal," he replied firmly, though inwardly, he smirked. 'Woman, you've already fallen into my trap. I'll make sure to massage those breasts until they start producing milk.'
"Good," Yang Xin responded before turning around and walking away, a smug look flashing across her face. 'Hmph, trying to take advantage of me? You're still too young. Even talented individuals study for years before taking the alchemist apprentice exam, and only one or two percent pass. You, a pampered brat, think you can do it in a week? Let's see. It'll be fun to mock you after your inevitable failure.'
Meanwhile, Shen Fei replaced his books on the shelf before selecting fifty more. He sat down and resumed reading, his speed increasing even further. Within five hours, he had devoured nearly seven bookshelves' worth of alchemical knowledge.
Stretching slightly, he smirked to himself. "That's enough for today. I already have more than enough knowledge to pass the apprentice exam… but why stop there? I want to give her a bigger shock." A scene played in his mind—him skipping the apprentice rank entirely and directly becoming a Master or even a Grandmaster during the test.
Leaving the Alchemist Association, he walked outside to find Chi Bong along with seventeen other lackeys already waiting for him.
"Young Master," they all bowed and greeted him in unison.
"Let's go," Shen Fei ordered casually, walking past them without issuing any further instructions.
Although some of the lackeys were puzzled, they obediently followed behind. Only Chi Bong remained calm, a knowing smirk playing on his lips. They have no idea what's about to happen.
Soon, under Shen Fei's lead, they arrived at a deserted alleyway.
Without hesitation, Shen Fei activated the Slave Inscription Technique.
Intricate, microscopic runes, invisible to the naked eye, emerged from his mind and shot toward the foreheads of all seventeen lackeys. The inscriptions sank into their skin before burrowing deep into their brains, altering their very thoughts.
Their expressions shifted for a moment before their eyes became filled with unwavering loyalty.
Shen Fei then took out several space rings and tossed one to each of them. "Each of these contains funds. Buy as much Purple Haze Grass as you can."
"Yes, Master!" they all bowed in unison.
"Go, then." He dismissed them with a flick of his wrist.
The newly enslaved lackeys departed swiftly, their minds now bound to his will. With that settled, Shen Fei turned and made his way back to the Sacred Family Manor, greeted once more by respectful nods and whispers as he walked through the bustling streets.
