Chapter 190: Charya
190 Charya
They entered the house. The inside was s.p.a.cious, considering the outer appearance itself was already huge enough. The first thing Alex wanted to ask after entering the house was, "Senior Sister. I"m confused, why do we need a big house like this when it is only one person staying inside?"
"Hmm, From a mortal"s point of view. This place is indeed huge. But from a cultivator"s point of view, it"s also big but also not big. I mean, I can reach there in a split second while normal people can? reach there after having one minute walk." Putri said.
Although he understood the concept, he still did not understand why. After all, there were still many empty s.p.a.ce inside here alone.
"Rather than thinking about that, I will give you the tour of this place. Well, it is similar to the other living quarters, including mine." Putri said.
Putri guided him to every nook and corner of his house. Then finally they had arrived in the last room. Inside the room, there were four crystal b.a.l.l.s. A blue one in the front and three green crystals on the back.
She explained, "The blue colored crystal is used for a receiver. That means, if someone wants to visit you, this crystal ball will glow. As for the three crystal b.a.l.l.s on the back, you can activate it with your Spiritual Energy. The left one is for my house, the one next to it for Senior Sister, and the right one is for the living quarter which Master usually stayed, but you won"t need this one."
"Come here and try. Put your hand on the crystal ball and used your Spiritual Energy to activate it." Putri asked him to get closer.
Alex came closer to him. He examined the crystal ball, he didn"t know what this crystal is. Nevertheless, he placed his hand on the Crystal Ball and let his Spiritual Energy activated it. The green crystal suddenly glowed. But Alex also felt something, he felt the energy from the crystal.
"This is what it means, you want to visit my place. Then the blue crystal on my house will glow. You can turn the blue crystal off with your Spiritual Energy, the step is the same, so I"m sure you won"t have trouble to use it. Then, if I turn the blue crystal off, this green crystal will also stop glowing. If that happens, that means, I have known that you want to visit me and you can visit me anytime soon. And if you can feel it, there is energy from within the crystal. I"m sure you can feel it. You can use your Spiritual Energy to check the energy. So, you don"t need to keep going back and forth from this room."
"I see, pretty convenient tool, isn"t it..." Said Alex in astonishment
"Indeed. Then that"s all, if you wanted to practice, you could use the big field outside. Is there anything you want to ask?"
"No, Senior Sister"s explanation was very clear. Thank you very much."
"Alright. After I left, I will turn off the crystal. If you have any ques..." Before she finished her words. A high pitch sound was heard.
"Putri! bring that new guy here."
Alex was shocked by the sudden voice. Putri only gave him a wry smile. "That is Master. Master usually call us like that, so I"m sure you will get used to it sooner or later. Alright, let"s go. Ah, first, I need to warn you a bit. Don"t mind her appearance, she is actually a very caring Master."
"Umm" Alex didn"t understand what she means but still nodded. Then they finally went out.
Alex and Putri arrived shortly, and Song Yu has waited for them. "Alex, Master said she wants to talk with you alone."
Alex nodded as he came inside alone as Song Yu closed the door for him. The inside was close to a throne room in the castle of a kingdom, but of course, there was no throne inside. In fact, there was nothing inside, only a big empty wooden floor. He saw a black haired woman sitting on the floor in the center of the room with her foot rise rudely. She kept her hair on her back, tying it in a ponytail. There was a scar on her face running from her left cheek to her left eyebrow. With one look, people can know this woman had a great backstory. But the scar itself didn"t ruin her beautiful face. Instead, it gave a unique feeling for the people who see her. She sucked on her tobacco pipe. Her clothes were a bit loose and letting him see a big cleavage...not that he cares, though. Her good body, including big curves and perfect edges, didn"t tempt him at all.
But upon seeing her, Alex had his eyes widened. Because it was similar to what he remembered in his memory. It was the legendary female yakuza! What the heck with today. Just now, he got a legendary Kabedon while now he got to see a female Yakuza.
No, in fact, what the heck with this group? The teacher was a female Yakuza, then the big Sister was small but cheerful despite being strong. Then the other one was a fully elegant and rich young lady. In fact, their characters were vastly different.
(AN: If the Sect Master was here, he can proudly present the unique and big variety of women of the ninth peak.)
"Yo, New guy. I don"t understand the reason why the sect master wanted me to keep you here. But for now, I wanted to talk to you first. So please sit, ah you can sit anywhere you like" With a slightly high pitch and cheerful voice, The ninth elder said.
Alex nodded and silently took a sit on the floor, not far in front of her.
"I wanted to talk to you. After all, the one living here is Song Yu and Putri while you are a man. Mah, don"t be so nervous. I, myself didn"t really like that stiff thing like that."
Alex also understood her concern, so he nodded his head, if he can complain, he really wanted to complain about her word, which can invite a misunderstanding! Alex understood what she means. She must be talking about the polite and tradition like that. But, she should be able to reword it better!
Then the ninth elder continued, "So which one is your target? Is it Putri? She has a caring personality, she would be a gentle mother later. Oh, don"t tell me you like Song Yu? Although that child is a pretty cheerful and full of energy. She is, in fact, pretty caring and responsible, you know. Or don"t tell me, Me?"
His eyebrows twitched. Alex thought madly "Is she really wanted to talk about this? But she really talked frankly. Is this really her personality? What answer should I give in a situation like this? This is a hard question."
"Should he say he didn"t like everyone since it is the truth? But she might tell him that he is a hypocrite. Then, should he say it"s Song Yu? She might be disgusted as considering her pet.i.te figure and childlike personality...Then how about Putri? No no no, Although, Putri is indeed the best choice. He can"t say it since it might reach her ear, and it will end his life. Then should he choose the ninth elder? She has a pretty face even though there is a scar on it and also she really has a good body. No, she might say I"m trying to bootlick her."
Alex had seen so many "scenes" like this on Earth. Picking none of them was hypocrite, Picking one of them was not the best choice while picking all three of them, he will be killed by those disgusted faces of them. Alex sweatdropped, he should be think out of the box here. So he thought of an answer that no one had said it yet. Since he was the youngest one here, he answered with, "I"m not into older women."
This time, it was the turn of Ninth Elder"s brow to be twitched. She said with a cold voice, "So... You said you don"t like older women, then it means you are into a little girl?"
Alex just realized the flaw of his answer. Then, suddenly he heard a voice of footsteps in front of the door, ready to breach the door. Sweatdropped, He turned back to see the door. But of course, nothing coming in.
Suddenly, the ninth elder spoke again awkwardly. "New guy. Why do I feel there are footsteps on the outside that ready to come here? You also turned your head, right? Do you know anything?"
Alex shook his head furiously. The ninth elder suddenly laughed, "Gahaha, Alright. I know you want to avoid that question. In fact, that question was only a joke. But, to think your answer is like that...I decided, I really like you, new guy. Welcome to the ninth peak."
Alex nodded his head. Now that there was no more pressure on his head, he can really think clearly and regretted why he answered the question with those words. Then he stroked the ring on his left ring finger. The Ninth Elder also noticed his action.
"I have two wives, and I really love them. That is my answer. I hope it is not disappointing you, Ninth Elder." Alex said with a sincere face.
The ninth elder looked at his sincere face and answer, astonished. She found that the answer was really coming from his deepest part. Then she smiled a bit, "Is that so..."
Although, Alex added another thing in his heart, "There is still Anna waiting too. How can he have the time with them?"
"Alright. Let me introduce myself. I"m Charya, just Charya. The previous sect master found me when I"m a kid and raised me here. So nice to meet you..."
"Alexander, Alexander Sirius. You can call me Alex since Alexander is a bit too long."
"Sure. Nice to meet you, Alex." Charya nodded. "Then, let"s go back to the topic. I heard you are very talented at making the Sect Master make a move personally. But I really don"t understand until now, why he said that you couldn"t have a master or a teacher? If you didn"t want to answer, it"s fine with me. After all, we all have our own personal secret that we can"t let others know."
Alex nodded. Then, Charya stood up and suddenly stretching her body. "Let"s go with my tradition. We will fight outside. I will lower my cultivation to match your cultivation. So, I will limit my cultivation to 5-Star Martial Master. Of course, Song Yu and Putri also have a duel like this with me when they came here back then."
Astonished, Alex can"t say no at this time...can"t he? Charya walked toward the door and kicked it open. "Gahaha. Girls, we are going to the field!"
"Master, are you going to do the usual?" Song Yu asked worriedly.
"Of course. It is my personal welcome ceremony."
"Are you sure, Master?"
"Of course. You and Putri also received this greeting. I can"t let this guy go empty-handed."
"I mean, Master. We found him today when he suddenly becomes a top ten in Outer Disciple Ranking."
"Oh!" This news makes even Charya in astonishment. She looked at Alex and grinning fiercely. "It seems the new guy here is really unordinary."
Alex made a weird smile. He wished to redo the battle tower. He will stop in a rank that not stand out if he can repeat it. They come to the big field outside the palace.
Song Yu and Putri came to him for encouragement. "Good Luck, Alex. I"m cheering for you."
While Putri only gave him a realistic opinion, "Master...really hate to lose"
When Song Yu gave her encouragement, Alex accepted it with a nod. But when Putri said that, he suddenly gulped down. Didn"t that mean, if he fight harder, then she will respond the same? Alex was thinking about pulling his punch and intentionally be defeated by her. But when he stepped on the field.
Charya looked at him while grinning. "Alex. I will say this. Don"t you dare to slack off! If you dare to do it, we are going to redo it twice."
"!!!" Alex sweatdropped. He is asking in his heart. "Is this woman have a sixth sense?"
He can only sigh helplessly. Well, he also wanted to try comparing him with an elder in their technique if they had the same level of cultivation. It means, all of it depends on their techniques, skills, and experiences.
