Supreme Dual Cultivator: Rising With Every Climax

Chapter 9: Crimson Veil



The color of the sky slowly turn dark and an unusual red hue cover the whole area, but except him everyone remained nonchalant about it so maybe it's not as unusual as he consider it to be?

He walked inside a decent looking diner, it honestly looked a little extravagant with roof tiled with blood dragon scales, blood lanterns floating around the entrance. The name engraved in black jade and crimson marble, "The Crimson Veil Pavilion."  

He settled in, slowly looking at the food menu engraved on the wall and lightly called the waiter placing an order for the most normal looking dishes- Forged beast Rib with a side of Ashen bloom Tempura and Lanternmist Brew.

"Sure guest your dishes would come right up." 

Yan Zhen, huffed eating alone isn't something he like or need to be honest but the best way to know about anyplace is through it's food and to meet people is through diners. Ruolan has stopped responding to him but he can still feel her spiritual energy through their connect so maybe she is just deep in her closed cultivation.

"Did you hear, the lord has given quarter of the land to lady Meihua and Yinmei" 

Yan Zhen ears perk up, yes these kind of information might be useful for him, and if those two are so gossipy they might let slip some other major information to him.

He turned, smiling politely, as he assessed the individual in front of him. They didn't look like a demon cultivator - infact he doubted if they were even cultivators at all. So..... is this diner open for civilians too?

"Hello sir, I am a traveler here, and the food doesn't look like anything I've ever had, would you recommend some drink?"

"Ah! Should really try Poison Scorpion Wine, that's the real stuff, you wouldn't find it anywhere else."

" Sure, would trust your choice, I insist you drink with me, drinking wine alone would be too depressing.. ha!1ha" He raised his hand calling over the waiter and adding the drink in his order.

He swiftly shifted onto their table, and as someone who was buying them an expensive alcohol for free he was welcomed with open arms.

"so where are you from?" 

"Just from a coastal village on the outskirts" Yan Zhen lied through his teeth, he was waiting for a good chance for him to start asking his own question without coming on as too pushy.

Soon the waiter brought out the spread, it looked more appetizing than it sounded, "please help me out, I didn't expect the portion to be so generous."

Surely, sharing food is still the best way to create favorable impression, "So are you both also cultivators."

"No, we are half goblins, are you interested in joining a sect."

"No.. No.. I've no such talent." with the food and wine being shared the atmosphere soon became comfortable and it was the perfect opportunity for him to gather enough information.

The demonic cultivators don't just reside with other cultivators they invite everyone in their cities. Mainly because unlike heavenly cultivators who are scared of their qi getting even a little tempered by worldly worries, demon cultivators get nourished by those. Currently there are three main sects - Blood Moon, Crimson Veil & Thousand Illusion Sect. Currently the restaurant that they are seated on are one of many dwellings that are under Crimson Veil Sect. So residing here is not much of a problem.

He walked to the front wanting to pay his bill, when he felt a strong gust of wind pass by, the sound of bells chiming came first then the gasp that slowly filled the halls, he turned around to see two women almost identical dressed in two piece red outfit, with black midnight hair wrapped around by a peacock crown and the crimson veil covering their faces leaving only their eyes visible.

"That is demon king's daughters, they are the only women born in over past ten decades to any demonic king, they are said to have immense Yin energy."

Yan Zhen looked above, watching the two sisters walking up the stairs side by side creating an amazing harmony. Maybe this is what he needs to actually climb to a level where he can start showing his face in the erena again.

It's not that he is unaware of the execution order placed on Ruolan and his head, he is just extremely self aware that even with his new grade three core and a comparatively better cultivation he is in no position to fight against the most low ranked assassin let alone win against them.

If they are daughter of Crimson Veil sect than they must be living at the best room here, he went to the counter. "I would like to pay for the food, and also what is the best room here".

"The best room here would be, the one build over the grave on the south. The energy their is pristine and there is also a complementary hot spring where dark beast are sacrificed and is enriched by their blood it has good mixture of yin and yang energy. "

Well the only energy he is really after, is the yin energy of the ladies. But he smiles and slide a gold bar over the counter, "please prepare that room for me."

"Right away sir, please follow me." The man walked in front and lead him up to the top floor, he could see that there were only two rooms in that floor and if he payed a little close attention he can hear giggling from the other room.

"Sir, would you like anything else?" Yan Zhen finally looked at the man who guided him there.

"No that'll be all "

He did act too out of blue - there is no plan on how he is going to approach them or what he is going to say to them. It's not like, sleeping twice or thrice with a women has made him enough confident to approach others with the same intention. 

He settled on the bed, the room and the amenities are worthy of the most ridiculously expensive room.

He threw his clothes in the laundry basket and wrapped towel around his waist, before stepping out to the hot spring, maybe soaking in hot spring wil stimulate blood flow in his brain and he can come up with a way to get a taste of their yin energy.

He walked out plopping unceremoniously in the hot spring, leaned on the edge keeping his hand on the top and plopping his head back. He don't remember for how long he sat, he could feel his eyes getting heavier but before he can doze of. His sleep got disturbed by a loud screem.

"Aaaaaahhhhh"
