Chapter 203: Dual Cultivation? Nah... Quadruple Cultivation! (Part 1)
Upon hearing Xu Mei's question, Xie Qing felt a shiver run down his spine. He turned his head with a sound as if a rusty mechanism was at work.
"Eh?"
"Don't pretend. Do you think you can hide from the eyes of a cultivator at my level?" Xu Mei snorted.
Xie Qing looked at her expression and could tell that the girl was upset. Her puffed-out cheeks looked incredibly cute.
"W-well, I can't deny it, of course..." Xie Qing sighed and decided to just tell the truth: "You could say it's affection on my part. She did used to like me."
"Hmph..."
Xu Mei made a noncommittal sound that didn't help Xie Qing understand her mood. So he thought for a moment and, putting his arm around her waist, whispered in her ear: "Actually, I was planning on buying you a ring... will you... accept my gift?"
"Wh-what?..."
His gentle, soothing voice made the woman shudder, and Xie Qing's words made her blush and her eyes light up.
"Do you promise?" she whispered, holding out her pinky finger.
"Of course," Xie Qing said with a smile, also holding out his pinky finger.
They pinky-swore, and Xu Mei became happier, while Xie Qing breathed a sigh of relief. Then the woman started walking with skipping steps, looking like a maiden in a field of flowers.

"Secluded cultivation? Seriously? That's something serious..."
At dinner, Xie Qing brought up the topic of wanting to go into seclusion for a long time. Of course, the women's expressions were not very happy. Disappointment and sadness were all too apparent.
"Young Master, could it be that you've had an enlightenment?" Yu Yang asked as she poured him wine. Her enchanting figure and scent were simply amazing.
"Yes, I have some understanding of the Dao of the Sword, and I want to go into seclusion... I don't know how long it will take, but I don't want to miss my chance," Xie Qing replied, wiping his lips with a napkin. He looked at the women and smiled faintly: "Of course, I will spend a week with you before I go into seclusion."
After his words, the women smiled. For them, as cultivators, it was not unnatural to go into seclusion for a long time, as ten years for a mortal was a long period, but for cultivators, it could be just one cultivation session.
"But I will make sure to work hard during this time and fulfill all your needs and desires," he said, smiling.
After his words, Xie Qing immediately felt the women's gazes in the room (including the servants) become sharp and... predatory? However, it was so brief that he didn't even have time to react.
"Did I... imagine it?" the young man wondered.
They continued eating, but the atmosphere was a little strange. The women looked at each other, seeming thoughtful.
***
Xie Qing was resting in his room when suddenly the door opened, and Yu Yang appeared on the threshold. The moonlight illuminated her beautiful mature figure.
"Young Master..."
With her arrival, the room was filled with the scent of roses. The woman was wearing revealing lingerie and a semi-transparent nightgown that didn't so much hide as reveal her beautiful body.
"Yu Yang? Come in, sit down," Xie Qing waved his hand and smiled.
As expected, during this time, the women would come to him to satisfy their desire for his Yang Qi so that they would not be lonely later.
However, to his surprise, Yu Yang sat down next to him and merely hugged him, pressing her seductive body against him. That was all she did, and she didn't make any other moves.
"Heh, do you want to be gentle today? Usually, you pounce on me," Xie Qing said with a smile, making Yu Yang blush.
"Don't tease me, Young Master... I'm not that perverted," Yu Yang said, puffing out her cheeks and looking like a squirrel.
"Of course, I believe you," Xie Qing replied.
Her embarrassed expression, slight embarrassment, and gentle behavior were like medicine for Xie Qing's eyes, and he smiled as he looked at her. He gently stroked her back, making Yu Yang shiver and breathe heavily. Xie Qing noticed a clear scent of Yin Qi, which meant one thing - she was aroused.
But he didn't understand why she was holding back so much, as usually, it wouldn't take five minutes for her to jump on his jade rod with a crazy expression on her face.
And as soon as he thought about it, the door to the room opened again, and Xie Qing lost his voice.
"Son... hm?"
There stood Xie Meiling in revealing lingerie, and upon seeing Yu Yang, she froze and narrowed her eyes.
"Hm! You treacherous woman, so you broke our promise! How shameless!"
"I'm sorry, Lady Xie... but in my defense, we were just hugging! That's all..."
Yu Yang surprisingly defended herself, and Xie Qing caught something about a promise from their dialogue. He raised an eyebrow.
Xie Meiling snorted and quickly walked over to Xie Qing from the other side, hugging his arm and pressing her two 'big arguments' against him. The young man lost his voice.
"What's going on here?"
On one side was the maid who had taken care of his needs since childhood, and on the other side was his mother. And they were both dressed in revealing outfits.
And considering the warmth and softness with which they tried to seduce him, Xie Qing felt a slight twitch in the area of his mighty sword, which was about to come out of its scabbard and show the whole world who was in charge here.
Two minutes later...
"Disciple... hm?"
"I'm having a deja vu..." Xie Qing thought, looking at the door.
As expected, there was Xu Mei, dressed in revealing blue lingerie. She wasn't wearing a nightgown, so her figure was more exposed.
She looked at the two women, completely ignoring Xie Qing, and her eyes narrowed to slits.
"Girls, we had an agreement. Why did you break the order?" she asked in an icy voice, and Xie Qing felt as if a block of ice had been placed against his neck.
Xie Meiling and Yu Yang turned away, hissing, looking a little embarrassed. It seemed that they had their own time-sharing arrangement with Xie Qing, but these two had apparently broken the promise.
And what about Xie Qing? Well, he found it all amusing, so he silently observed. It wasn't every day that you got to see such a comedy... and besides, he had his own thoughts.
Finally...
Xu Mei also approached him and hugged him from behind. Now Xie Qing was sandwiched from three sides.
"Mountains on the left, mountains on the right, mountains in the back... they're just walking mountain ranges," he thought, but did not express his thought out loud.
The situation was absurdly strange, but it was amusing to him, so he just watched for now. It was like watching a drama.
"Xie Meiling, why are you breaking the order? I should be first," Xu Mei said in a displeased voice, hugging Xie Qing tighter.
"Hm? How strange. But as far as I remember, I was first. You even graciously agreed to give up your place, right, Yu Yang?"
"Lady Xie, it seems that you have also forgotten something. After all, you two gave me the first place in the queue, so I would be grateful if you would keep your promise."
"Oh, you!"
"Sly!"
Xu Mei and Xie Meiling clicked their tongues at the same time, losing their voices at Yu Yang's audacity. Xie Qing smiled faintly.
"You get along well," he finally said something instead of his usual silence.
"Get along? Hm, I don't know... partly yes, partly no," Xu Mei replied and smiled: "We'll get along even better if you, girls, give me my rightful place."
"Hmph!" Xie Meiling snorted and looked at Xu Mei discontentedly: "Why should it be your 'rightful' place? After all, I am his mother, which means I should be first!"
"Wait, girls, but I've been taking care of the young master since he was a child..."
"Haha..."
Xie Qing laughed heartily, attracting the puzzled gazes of the three women. He suddenly did something, and each of them moaned loudly and sensually, falling helplessly onto the bed.
"Let's not argue. I am quite enduring, so I can satisfy all three of you... if you want, of course," he said, getting up from the bed and looking at the three helpless (well, two helpless) women.
What he had just done was press on the Yin acupuncture points, which were erogenous zones. He had learned all this from several branch books of Dual Cultivation.
Xie Meiling and Yu Yang were still paralyzed and breathing heavily, but Xu Mei almost immediately regained her composure thanks to her monstrous endurance. However, she was curious about what would happen next, so she pretended.
Upon hearing his words, the women showed embarrassment and confusion on their faces. Of course, they understood that Xie Qing wanted a threesome, but...
"That's too embarrassing!"
Even Xu Mei, who had thick skin, couldn't bring herself to do it and blushed. Sharing a bed with someone other than her partner was something new to her.
However, if she thought about it, this way he could give them equal attention... Xu Mei's eyes sparkled.
"Alright, I agree!" she was the first to say, shocking the other women.
"Wh-what? You agree? But..."
Xie Meiling and Yu Yang exchanged glances, seeing embarrassment in each other's eyes, but at some point, desire overcame them, and they nodded.
