‘I’ll make sure it scalds you, you detestable man,’ Tanya cursed Seth viciously in her mind while blowing on the hot tea with her small mouth."Give it here!”After blowing for nearly a minute, Tanya felt her cheeks getting a bit sore. She then handed the tea to Seth, her expression hostile. If Seth complained that the tea was too cold later, she would definitely splash it on his face.Fortunately, Seth did not do that. He took the tea, had a sip, and praised, "Not bad. The tea brewed by a beautiful woman is indeed delicious."Tanya rolled her eyes, unconvinced by any sweet talk that was aimed at little girls."Is there anything else? If not, I’m off.”Seth smiled. "Go ahead, but remember what you promised me last night."Tanya snorted. "I know, I know. It's just a meal. You won't be shortchanged."With that, she waved her hand and left, her swaying figure creating the perfect scenic view.Rubbing his chin, Seth secretly looked forward to the day when this woman knelt before h
Seth shook his head. Without bothering to reply to her, he started driving. While they were on the road halfway, Tanya said she wanted to go and buy groceries in the supermarket. Seth parked the car on the side of the road and took out his phone to check the news. He focused on the international ones. Nothing major seemed to be happening. Since the size of the Medicine Sect was equivalent to a slightly larger county town in Longford, they undoubtedly would not make it to the international stage.However, there was one piece of news that caught Seth's attention. Warhawk had poured eight billion dollars into research funding for their biological laboratory this year. It seemed that their genetically modified soldiers had yielded results, prompting an increase in research efforts. If he had not encountered them firsthand, he probably would not have made the connection.It seemed like he had to pick up the pace in his search for the last medicinal herb.Half an hour later, Tanya r
While Tanya might not boast when it came to many things, she considered herself quite a skilled chef. Due to her family’s circumstances, she began helping with cooking at the age of six or seven. By the time she was 12, she was already in charge of the kitchen.The kitchen turned into two battlefields. An hour later, both sides had prepared five dishes and a soup. They were all arranged neatly on the dining table. Tanya's expression froze a bit at the sight. Simply judging from the appearance, Seth's cooking far surpassed hers. ‘How is this possible?’ she thought to herself incredulously. A moment later, she silently reassured herself, ‘It's okay, it probably tastes mediocre despite how good it looks.’Seth raised an eyebrow as he observed Tanya's fluctuating expression. "Try the dishes you made first, and then taste mine," he suggested.Tanya snorted, picked up her cutlery, and tasted her own food. She nodded silently as she ate. This competition with Seth had likely ignited he
Tanya recalled the bet between them then. If she lost, she would have to kiss Seth, something she could not stand. In an unusual move for her, she went against her conscience and said stiffly, “Your cooking is decent, but compared to mine, it's just a little bit lacking."Noting the strange expression on Seth's face, she continued, "But considering you're my boss, let's call this competition a draw. I won't kiss you, and you don't have to give me the money.”After saying this, she secretly breathed a sigh of relief. She silently patted herself on the back. She was indeed clever and had successfully defused the crisis.Seth's lips curled slightly. "Doesn't your conscience ache when you say that?"Tanya did feel a bit uneasy, but kissing Seth was something she was unwilling to do. She could not help but feel a sense of guilt. She quickly brushed off the guilt, thinking what was the big deal? She could make it up by working a bit later at the company in the future or helping out a b
The more Tanya thought about what happened, the more frustrated she felt. After losing her carefully preserved first kiss in just a moment to the man she despised the most, she immediately bit Seth's arm after he let her go.Her actions did not hurt Seth, of course. He simply allowed the woman to bite him. However, when she did not let go of him after a few minutes, Seth became somewhat displeased. "That's enough. Open your mouth."If it were an ordinary person, they would have likely bitten off a piece of flesh by now. However, this woman showed no intention of letting go. She looked like she intended to dig her teeth into him for the rest of her life. Seth furrowed his brows. "If you don't let go, you'll have to bear what comes after.”She still held on tightly, refusing to release her bite.Seth then tapped on her pressure points, which sent a shudder through her delicate body before she finally released.Then, Seth lifted the woman onto his shoulder and walked toward the b
The man's tone was calm. He talked as if he was about to crush a simple ant rather than kill a person. Despite this being their first meeting, Seth appreciated this man. He sensed a purity in the man, and Seth was someone who harbored a love for talent. However, Seth also knew that such a person would never change his own will. Hence, he refrained from trying to recruit him.Seth straightened himself and said his next words seriously, "Go ahead. I can give you a dignified death.”The man struck under the light of the moon. Drawing the wooden sword in his hand, he abruptly slashed forward. A thin, wire-like sword aura shot out.The sword aura was extremely fast, beyond the perception of the naked eye. It was both powerful and discreet, causing naught a disturbance in the air. Seth exclaimed, "Your skill advances with the path of virtue. If you were given another ten years to cultivate, you might become a legendary Sword Saint."The man's swordsmanship was exquisite. He had compr
Seth down crouched in front of the man, who was now hanging to his life by a thread. He had depleted his entire life force in the last strike and was nearly successful in injuring Seth, who was in the Foundation Realm.Seth pointed a finger at the man's heart and used his spiritual energy to seal the last remnants of his life force."I'm quite interested in that One Sword to Cut the World technique of yours, including the technique you used to compress the sword aura just now. Can you teach me? I wouldn't want such extraordinary skills to be lost," Seth said.Blood spewed from the man’s mouth at every breath, but he eventually nodded with difficulty.Seth helped him up, leaning him against the wall. The man took a few labored breaths before painstakingly revealing the cultivation methods for the two extraordinary techniques he had mastered.Seth listened silently. This man was undoubtedly a sword genius. Even the cultivation methods for the two techniques were beyond Seth's imagin
Seth found himself captivated for over ten minutes and could not help the thought of spending a lifetime where he was. It took considerable effort to avert his gaze. Sitting on the ground, he silently questioned himself as he strengthened his willpower. It took him quite some time to recover his willpower.The improvement of his willpower would also contribute to the enhancement of his mental strength. Seth could tell he had increased it slightly. One’s mental strength was notoriously difficult to improve, and there were few techniques available for the process. He then began extracting energy from the ice bed and cultivated. An hour soon passed when his meditation was interrupted by the ringing of his phone. Seth stowed away the ice bed and answered the call.After listening to the call for a while, he hung up. The call was from Wendy, who informed him that she had located Kyle’s current whereabouts. She also provided him with the address.Seth ended the call, his figure disapp
