The Immortal Cultivation World of Male Inferiority and Female Supremacy-Chapter 257. Qiao Sen’s Highness’s Male Concubine

Qiao Sen had been staying at the Heavenly Sword Sect for five days, and only when he was burning with anxiety did Fang Zhou decide to set out.

Before setting out, Fang Zhou gathered all the members together to make sure their stories aligned, to avoid any slip-ups.

This time, a total of four individuals were heading to the capital of Chu Kingdom to rescue the Qiao family.

Fang Zhou didn’t really count; the Heavenly Sword Sect sent out three people, apart from Yu Qing and Xuan Ling, there was also one more — Gou Cheng.

Yes, it was that most glamorous guy from the Heavenly Sword Sect. His mentor used the excuse of training to slip him into the team, and True Master Yu Jian couldn’t bring himself to refuse.

Although Gou Cheng had a striking and handsome appearance, his demeanor was of the same gentle type as Yu Qing.

Fang Zhou looked at these three. Yu Qing was his ally, no need to mention. Xuan Ling was a sickly drama king; after he gave her a good beating on the backside last time, there was bad blood between them. However, there hasn’t been much movement recently.

Seeing him again now, she acted in no unusual manner, carrying that familiar frivolous smile.

But Fang Zhou was certain that this troublemaker would definitely find an opportunity to stir things up. He had to be wary of her as if she were an enemy.

The last one was Gou Cheng. Despite being of the same gender, under the title "foot-scratching man," it’s only natural that he’d have a favorable impression of him if that were the case.

Moreover, there were rumors that Gou Cheng had a secret crush on one of the three True Disciples, unless it was the never-present Thunder. Otherwise, with the scandal between Fang Zhou, Yu Qing, and Xuan Ling, Gou Cheng would certainly regard him as a romantic rival.

A foot-scratching man plus a love rival, beneath Gou Cheng’s gentle smile, perhaps there was a desire to kill Fang Zhou.

This was a team fraught with internal conflict, with tense member relationships, barely able to unite, and it gave Fang Zhou a headache.

If he could, he really wanted to kick Xuan Ling and Gou Cheng out and just go with Yu Qing.

"From now on, I’m Ling Xiaoyue. Remember my name, don’t get it wrong."

Fang Zhou warned the three, his gaze falling on Xuan Ling: "If anyone intentionally exposes my identity, I reserve the right to send them back. If it leads to mission failure, all consequences will be on them."

"Why are you staring at me?"

Xuan Ling said with a beaming smile: "Could it be you think I would deliberately give you trouble? Rest assured, my butt is still sore."

With these words, Yu Qing’s expression became somewhat unnatural.

Fang Zhou remained unfazed and turned to look at Gou Cheng.

Gou Cheng immediately cupped his fists and said, "Greetings, Taoist Ling."

"No need to call me Taoist Ling."

Fang Zhou waved at Qiao Sen, who was hiding in the distance, and called her over, draping an arm around her shoulder: "From now on, I am Prince Qiao Sen’s male concubine, just call me by my name."

Qiao Sen stiffened all over, staring at Fang Zhou in shock.

The other three had varied expressions: Yu Qing looked a bit philosophical about life, Xuan Ling showed disdain, and Gou Cheng was full of questions.

Fang Zhou ignored them and emphasized the importance of secrecy once more before taking out a Jade Pendant and putting it on.

This was obtained from True Master Yu Jian, and wearing it could mask his cultivation, making him appear as just an entry-level Qi Refining Realm person.

...

The four of them rode the shuttle to Yunshan City and met up with Qiao Sen’s entourage.

"Your Highness!"

General Zhao Luofei, accompanied by guards and attendants, came to greet them, her gaze landing on the three individuals who exuded an immortal aura.

Qiao Sen introduced Yu Qing, Xuan Ling, and Gou Cheng one by one, finally reaching Fang Zhou.

Fang Zhou feigned a shy look, hiding behind Qiao Sen.

Seeing Zhao Luofei’s puzzled expression, Qiao Sen braced himself and said, "This is Ling Xiaoyue. I felt an instant connection with him and plan to take him to the capital."

With Qiao Sen’s awkward demeanor, paired with Fang Zhou’s "seductive and charming" appearance, Zhao Luofei couldn’t help but feel her blood boiling.

She suppressed her anger and said, "Your Highness, we have important tasks at hand, bringing him along is inconvenient. Please think it over."

This was just a polite way of saying it, Zhao Luofei was almost pointing at Qiao Sen’s nose and cursing — We came for help, and you’re still finding time to look for men?

Qiao Sen looked flustered and aggrieved but had to command sternly, "My mind is made up, General Zhao, no need to say more."

Seeing Qiao Sen’s determination, Zhao Luofei could only glare at Fang Zhou, thinking this man had seduced the Princess with his charms, wishing she could chop off his head with a single strike.

Fang Zhou put on a frightened look, hiding behind Qiao Sen.

Yu Qing and the other two watched the spectacle from the side, struggling to suppress awkward expressions on their faces.

While Qiao Sen hadn’t been around, General Zhao Luofei had already made preparations, ready to set off as soon as Qiao Sen descended the mountain.

As the male concubine, Fang Zhou naturally shared a carriage with Qiao Sen, while the others rode horses.

Zhao Luofei cozied up to Yu Qing, casually asking about the background of this man named Ling Xiaoyue.

Yu Qing recounted the character background Fang Zhou had prepared.

Ling Xiaoyue had lost his family at a young age, wandered the martial world, and was taken back to the sect by a Heavenly Sword Sect elder. Unfortunately, Ling Xiaoyue was a man of mediocre talent, after over ten years of cultivation, he only reached the Qi Refining Realm.

Due to his alluring appearance causing disputes in the Heavenly Sword Sect, the sect was also quite displeased with him.

Qiao Sen felt an instant connection with Ling Xiaoyue on the mountain and wanted to bring him to the capital, while Ling Xiaoyue wished to follow Qiao Sen to enjoy wealth and glory. They clicked instantly.

After hearing this, although Zhao Luofei felt sympathy for Ling Xiaoyue’s past, she thought it was indeed unwise for Qiao Sen to still be interested in men at a critical moment.

But as the Crown Prince, Qiao Sen made the decision, and Zhao Luofei could only obey the orders.

After the convoy left Yunshan City, they traveled at a brisk pace, reaching a small town called Chaoxi before sunset to rest.

Qiao Sen, being the wealthy Crown Prince, didn’t stay at an inn after entering the town but spent money to book a vacant courtyard.

As night fell, after dinner, Fang Zhou, under countless strange gazes, returned to his room alone.

Having played the role of the "seductive charmer" all day, Zhao Luofei’s gaze nearly pierced through him.

Luckily, this female general was rational enough not to enact a scene of a loyal minister cutting down a seductive man to advise the sage. Otherwise, Fang Zhou would have to draw out his Big Treasure Sword to resist.

After waiting for a while, there was a knock on the door, and Fang Zhou went to open it wide, finding no one there but noticing a faint scent of grass.

Fang Zhou closed the door, and Liuwa Lan Shao’s figure appeared in the room.

Liuwa’s Invisibility ability was indeed impressive, no noise nor her presence could be detected while moving, and Fang Zhou relied on his spiritually enhanced nose to catch a whiff of the grassy scent on her.

"I’m exhausted!"

Once visible, Liuwa collapsed face-down on the soft bed, looking utterly worn out.

Fang Zhou walked over and gave her a light smack on the small of her back: "Get up, how many did you catch?"

Ever since Qiao Sen sent all attendants down the mountain, Fang Zhou had assigned Liuwa to keep a close eye on them to see if there were any insiders signaling outwards.

After the convoy left Yunshan City, Liuwa had remained invisible, following them until she finally emerged at night.

When asked by Fang Zhou, Liuwa raised one finger.
