My luck had run out. I never imagined that in this desolate forest far from the continental countries, I would encounter two rising stars from the Palace of Light, and even more likely, see Tianhe Xueqiong's true face. Hearing the two sisters' incredulous gasp upon seeing Xueqiong's true form, I knew I was in deep trouble.

(Damn it, I'm really screwed this time.)

I was inwardly groaning, trying to figure out how to escape, even to flee for my life, when I heard the three women begin to chatter like birds after their gasps.

Yu Hong tugged at her sister Yu Ni's sleeve, her voice crisp and clear, "I never imagined there could be such a beauty as this sister in the world..."

"Oh, no way! I'm the one who envies you two sisters. You're so young and beautiful, and your skills are amazing. You took care of all those beastmen in one go. You're really impressive."

Yu Hong and A Xue seemed to have similar personalities, and the two quickly struck up a conversation. Yu Ni, on the other hand, was much more mature and worldly-wise. She seemed unwilling to let her younger sister get too close to a complete stranger, and she kept trying to interrupt Yu Hong, her eyes constantly glancing in my direction.

None of this mattered, but judging from the situation, they didn't seem to know Tianhe Xueqiong. Otherwise, their reaction to A Xue would never have been like this.

Since they didn't know each other, I had no reservations and naturally stepped forward to strike up a conversation with these two beauties. However, Yu Ni, perhaps having been raped dozens of times by human men in the past, seemed to have "wariness" written all over her face the moment I approached. No matter what I said, she only gave a few cold replies, making me quite bored. "

Alright, my dear nephews, if you don't mind, let's get going. It's still a long way to Skeva City. Orc troops will appear here, and there might be more around. If we stay here any longer, it will be difficult to deal with them later."

The awkward situation was finally resolved with Mao Yan'an's help, which calmed Yu Ni and Yu Hong down, and they set off with us.

The whole affair had left me completely bewildered. Finally, during our rest that evening, I managed to clarify a few things through questioning.

"When I was still in China, I met Miss Tianhe Xueqiong of the Palace of Light. You two are her fellow disciples. I wonder how Miss Tianhe is doing lately?"

"Well... we don't know much either. If we know correctly, Senior Sister Tianhe has already set sail and begun her cultivation journey overseas."

"Huh? Judging from your tone, you haven't seen her? No way, aren't you fellow disciples?"

Using this question, I slowly and indirectly asked the question. The Divine Nun Xinyin usually secluded herself for cultivation, and her Dharma disciple Tianhe Xueqiong also lived in seclusion on a high mountain. The master of these two Japanese sisters, Layman Xindeng, had been traveling the world for many years. The two sisters had rarely even been to the Cihang Jingdian, let alone met the Divine Nun Xinyin, so naturally they didn't recognize their senior sister Tianhe Xueqiong.

"Then, why did you go to Skeva Songlou City? And what about the Zoroastrian attack you just mentioned?"

It was only after this question that I truly realized that something terrible had happened. The four major beast races had been jointly blockading the Feathered Race for some time with little effect. Finally, several months ago, they reached an agreement to launch a joint attack, spearheaded by the Fire Worship Cult, with all information kept secret beforehand to catch the enemy off guard.

Fortunately, the Feathered Race was lucky; the beastmen's secrecy and espionage skills were so poor that even things supposedly kept strictly confidential leaked out, allowing Skeva Songlou City to prepare. Given the enemy's unprecedented strength, City Lord Katrina hurriedly sent letters to various places, widely inviting help. The Neon Sisters, upon receiving the plea for assistance, immediately traveled thousands of miles to come.

"Actually, you didn't have to come back. Although you sisters are Feathered Race, you have long since achieved success beyond the Southern Barbarians, and have nothing to do with the grudges and entanglements here. With the Cihang Jingdian as your backing, you could have easily stayed out of it," Mao Yan'an nodded. "But now that the Feathered Race is in trouble, you still risked your lives to return, which shows your kindness and that you haven't forgotten your roots. Very good, very good..."

“Senior, you flatter me. My sister and I have been nurtured by our master and have achieved great success in our skills, serving in the Divine Palace. However, we have never forgotten that we are of the Feathered Clan, and we have always maintained contact with the Skeva Song Tower City,” Yu Ni said. “We are always worried about the plight of our Feathered Clan compatriots in the Southern Barbarian Lands. Now that our clan is in trouble, as members of the Feathered Clan, how could we abandon our compatriots at this time? How could we face heaven and earth with our conscience?”

As she spoke, Yu Ni lost her usual coldness and became somewhat agitated, her fists clenched tightly. Even Yu Hong, who had been chatting with Ah Xue, became serious upon hearing this and nodded earnestly along with her sister. Having served in the military for many years, I am used to this. Those mercenaries whose homes and countries have been destroyed always speak of their homeland and people with such passionate and impassioned expressions, as if they wish they could immediately sacrifice themselves. When you see such people, you should be wary; you must get the money you borrowed from them back as soon as possible.

Yu Ni said, "This time the enemy is powerful. I hope we can arrive before they besiege the city and fight alongside our compatriots."

Yu Hong said, "Sister is right, but... I heard it's not too bad this time. It seems the Fire Worship Cult Leader is in seclusion and hasn't participated in the operation, otherwise..."

Mentioning the Fire Worship Cult Leader, both sisters fell silent. Even Mao Yan'an looked serious. Only A Xue, still confused, looked at us curiously.

The Fire Worship Cult Leader, also known as the Beast Venerable, revered as a god by the beastmen, had achieved remarkable martial arts prowess despite being a beastman, ranking among the five strongest in the world. With such cultivation, he must be extremely formidable. Fortunately, most of these masters are martial arts fanatics, frequently going into seclusion to study even more advanced techniques, striving to become the number one martial artist in the world. Otherwise, with him in charge, Skeva City would definitely be doomed, and I would have to immediately abandon the mission, avoiding this foolish act that would lead to certain death.

The Heart-Seal Nun of the Temple of Light, the Beast Master of the Zoroastrian Church, the Black Dragon King of the Black Dragon Society, my Dragon Girl sister, and my dead-faced, perverted father stationed on the border of the Kingdom of Alibuda—these five are collectively known as the five strongest in the world. The title of "strongest" is based on martial arts prowess, but all paths lead to the same goal; those who have cultivated martial arts to their level are probably beyond the reach of other arts.

The final question concerns the uncle beside us, Mao Yan'an. Through the narration of the Japanese sisters, I learned that this guy is not an ordinary artist.

Nearly thirty years ago, at the Poetry Contest held before the Golden Flower Federation, this previously unknown young man, with his rich knowledge and handsome appearance, sang a poem praising the glory of the gods amidst melodious music, winning thunderous applause and taking first place. He was later invited to the Temple of Light, where he discussed Zen principles with the high monks, engaging in pleasant conversation. Recommended by the Temple of Light, he became a painter in the Golden Flower Federation.

Due to his talent, during his time as a painter, he drafted several documents for the government that later influenced the cultural renaissance of the Golden Flower Federation, earning him high regard from the entire nation. However, after serving three years in the Golden Flower Federation, when many supporters hoped he would run for public office, he resigned, citing that "artists should not participate in worldly affairs." The

Golden Flower Federation's attempts to retain him were unsuccessful, so they presented him with a golden seal, representing the Golden Flower Federation as their envoy. The Golden Flower Federation is backed by the Palace of Light. With such a powerful force as its backing, he can travel freely wherever he goes as long as he shows this golden seal. In addition, when he worked as a painter, he was often invited to various banquets, where his witty remarks made him popular with nobles from various countries. He enjoyed making friends and had a wide network of connections across the continent. Therefore, he has traveled to various places for many years without encountering any danger.

"Is that so? But if that's the case, this guy is just a scholar. He can't fight on the battlefield. You're going to help Skeva Song Tower City. What's so good about seeing him?"

Yu Ni was taken aback, not expecting me to criticize my elders like that. She gave me a strange look, seemingly doubting our relationship.

"Martial arts... we don't expect anything from them. We just need you to lead us to Skeva Tower City. The city is located in a remote area, and it may have a hidden barrier. Even the locals of Youli might not know about it. You've visited Youli many times and have been to the city before. Just take us there, and we'll take care of the rest."

In short, the uncle's job was simply to lead the way; they didn't expect him to do anything on the battlefield. The actual fighting was their job.

Hearing this, I couldn't help but look at the Ni sisters again. They still looked as delicate as flowers, and it was hard to imagine why they were so confident on the battlefield.

However, appearances can be deceiving. Who would have thought that when Ah Xue uprooted a tree and swung it wildly, the beastmen would flee in terror?

I had heard some things about these two sisters. They encountered a wise master, the Hermit of the Heart Lamp, and honed their martial arts skills to a remarkable degree. When facing enemies, the two sisters worked together, their minds in perfect harmony, making them a formidable force. Recommended by the Palace of Light, they obtained police officer status recognized by various countries on the continent. They could apprehend criminals in these countries without border restrictions; as long as they showed their identification, they would receive official assistance. In just two years, they had captured and killed over a dozen notorious thieves and bandits who had baffled others, earning a truly resounding reputation. This led some gossips to haile them as one of the Seven Beauties.

"That's strange. There are clearly two people, so why are they only counted as one flower? Isn't that unfair?" Unable to understand, Ah Xue asked me, puzzled.

"Although there are two people, they have the same face, and their figures… well, they probably aren't that different. What's the difference between two people like that and one person?"

I answered, but my mind was preoccupied with something else. The criminals who fell to their clutches were no pushovers; otherwise, they would have been captured and killed long ago. But when they encountered the Neon Sisters, they were all instantly killed without exception. This is why their reputation is so great. In the past, when I heard of these feats, I only thought they were highly skilled disciples of the Palace of Light, possessing extraordinary martial arts, which explained their repeated victories. But now, knowing they are from the Feathered Clan, I have a different perspective.

Those notorious thieves and bandits probably fell victim to the beast demons they summoned. Even if they come from prestigious families and have been trained by renowned masters, these two sisters are still young and unlikely to have mastered their martial arts to such a high level. Even if their combined attacks are truly as powerful as legend suggests, doubling their combined lethality, the fact that this has spread throughout the continent means people have every reason to be wary. In other words, if it were a direct confrontation based on individual skill, their repeated victories are truly unbelievable.

The most likely explanation is beast magic. The enemy was on high alert, only guessing that those from the Palace of Light might possess some light-based purification and healing spells. Who would have thought that, in the midst of the battle, they would suddenly unleash beast magic, a technique supposedly only found among the Southern Barbarians? Caught off guard, they were left with no choice but to behead their enemies. It's no wonder that all their targets were killed on the spot; if they weren't silenced, their signature techniques and identities would be exposed.

What exactly were their beast magics? I didn't know. The annihilation of those orcs was too fast; I didn't even have time to see clearly, but they must have been extremely powerful beast magics. According to rumors I'd heard, some higher-level beast magics could only be used by specific races. The Feathered Clan was able to rule the Southern Barbarians, so they must have possessed some extraordinary abilities. I wonder how much of the Feathered Clan's secret techniques these two had inherited.

I started pondering this not out of boredom. According to them, the road ahead wouldn't be easy. Even if they managed to reach Skeva City safely, they might still have to fight the Zoroastrian Church. After all, they were local tyrants with considerable power. Every treasure merchant in the Southern Barbarian Lands knew that if you didn't want to be buried there, you should never offend the Zoroastrian Church. If a formal war broke out, could a mere Skeva City gate withstand the Zoroastrian Church's large army?

Both sides were Beastmasters; such a battle would certainly be exciting. However, since I myself was going to be on the battlefield, I'd rather not watch such excitement. After all, I knew my limitations and didn't want to become a sacrifice for others to display their ultimate skills.

"Even without the Beastmaster's support, the Zoroastrian Church has many capable individuals. Are the two of you enough to fight them?"

I interrupted Ah Xue and Yu Hong's conversation, posing this extremely discouraging question. Yu Ni glanced at me warily, clearly unwilling to let an outsider like me know too much. However, seemingly mindful of her master's close friend's presence, she hesitated to remain silent, so she vaguely said, "We... are confident. As long as we reach Loucheng, we'll definitely find a way to make the enemy retreat..."

Her words weren't clear, but it was evident she wasn't speaking without reason, but rather possessed considerable confidence. Their skills alone wouldn't be enough to generate such confidence; they must have something else to rely on. What could it be? A more likely guess was... a powerful weapon?

With the Zoroastrian attacking in full force, if they were confident that their secret weapon could repel the Zoroastrian army, then this thing was truly extraordinary!

I glanced at the Ni sisters. Upon meeting my gaze, Yu Ni's voice became somewhat unnatural, and Yu Hong unconsciously reached behind her, as if to confirm something. Following her movements, I suddenly noticed a bundle about half a foot in size hidden behind her. It was vaguely visible, but it looked like what I was thinking.

(A small bundle—what could it be? Poison? Unlikely. Disciples of the Temple of Light wouldn't use poison. So… could it be a powerful artifact forged by a master of fire magic?)

Of the six major magic systems, only fire magic can create artifacts and seal magical power within them to make them divine. I'd heard my eccentric father say that a powerful artifact, combined with a medium-sized or larger protective array, could amplify its power enough to make an army of 100,000 retreat—a lesson he learned from his early battles against the Ishtar army.

If that were true, it would be very reliable. We only needed to deliver such an artifact to the city, and we'd be absolutely certain of defeating the Zoroastrian army. But is it really that simple? What if I'm wrong? Wouldn't this be suicide?

Just to be safe, I asked a few more questions, this time not to the Neon Sisters, but to Mao Yan'an, to avoid arousing their excessive vigilance and causing misunderstandings.

"Even without the Elder of Ten Thousand Beasts, the Fire Worship Cult still controls 85% of the current experts in the Southern Barbarians. If the Feathered Clan were to fight them head-on, I think it would be a nine-out-of-ten chance of death!" I said, "Just how strong are the Feathered Clan? Are there any powerful figures among them who are skilled in beast magic? What about martial arts masters?"

The Neon Sisters listened to my questions with bated breath. Obviously, having not returned to the Southern Barbarians for a long time, they were also unclear about the situation in Skeva Song Tower City, which was normal. But compared to them, Mao Yan'an's understanding of the Feathered Clan was quite extraordinary, as he could answer them so smoothly and without hesitation.

Mao Yan'an said, "In the past, the Feathered Clan was able to resist enemy attacks mainly because the enemy was not united and they were able to take advantage of the terrain of Loucheng. Generally speaking, the average combat strength of the Feathered Clan is slightly stronger than that of the various Beast Clans, but in terms of the quality of their experts, apart from City Lord Katrina, whose skills are quite remarkable, there are no other outstanding individuals..." "

That's terrible? Wouldn't it be very dangerous for us to go like this?"

"Not at all! To protect our homeland, every one of us in the Feathered Clan can fight ten against one, and we will definitely not lose to the enemy." Yu Hong spoke with righteous indignation, but just listening to her say that, I knew that although the two sisters might be excellent hunters, they were completely ignorant of warfare. Although there are examples in the world of wars where morale can turn the tide, if you rely on morale before the war even starts, it's no different from suicide.

"Moreover, I heard that Senior Brother Fang Qingshu will also be coming this time. With him here, our chances of winning will greatly increase, and defeating the Zoroastrian heretics will definitely not be a problem." Perhaps encouraged by that name, Yu Hong's face was full of excitement, and a shy blush of girlishness couldn't be concealed.

"Fang Qingshu? The young master of the Fang family in the Golden Flower Federation?" Upon hearing this, my face seemed to twitch for a moment. I asked for confirmation with a hint of annoyance, but I saw Yu Hong nod hurriedly.

If someone asked who the next master of the Fang family, which wields such great power in the Golden Flower Federation and has been elected president for several consecutive terms, was, the answer would be Fang Qingshu. If someone asked who the person was who

was taken as the first disciple by Master Xin Chan, the Palace Master of the Palace of Light, who taught him many of the unique martial arts techniques of the Cihang Jingdian, and who was also bestowed with the honorary holy order of "Knight of Light," the answer would be Fang Qingshu.

If someone were to ask who the number one swordsman among the new generation of young masters was, the hero who, months ago, defeated twelve generals of the Black Dragon Society on the East Sea with his three-foot-long sword, was? The answer would be Fang Qingshu.

For the past five years, this young man, Fang Qingshu, has practically monopolized all the glory among the new generation of martial arts masters. Born into a prestigious family, handsome and refined, he possessed all the advantages from birth. Not only did he have extraordinary talent, but he also encountered a master, quickly mastering solid martial arts skills and easily defeating established figures, accumulating a long and impressive record.

However, this alone is not remarkable. There are many talented young martial artists in the world, although most earned their success through blood and sweat, unlike his effortless triumph. But mere martial arts prowess is not enough to stand out.

Besides his exceptional martial arts skills, Fang Qingshu was also adept at literature. He not only achieved fame in the imperial examinations of the Golden Flower Federation but also astonished everyone during his public oral examination at the presidential residence, showcasing his remarkable eloquence and insight. Frankly, if you disregard his martial arts achievements, this guy really resembles a younger version of Mao Yan'an.

The extraordinary adventures that ordinary people fantasize about are utterly beneath his notice. Everything around him is the best; even extraordinary encounters couldn't add any more luster to him. He had achieved everything that everyone else dreamed of at such a young age. How could someone like that not become an idol?

It's said that wherever he goes, he's accompanied by the screams of countless young girls. Whether from noble families or martial arts heroines, they all vie to flatter and win the favor of this seemingly unpromising young hero. Although, so far, I've never heard of Fang Qingshu having any scandals, and all his interactions have remained "affectionate but respectful," I simply don't believe it.

There's no such thing as a cat that doesn't steal fish; it's just a matter of how well they keep it secret.

I had long heard of this guy's reputation, but since we were never in the same country, I never had the chance to meet him. I could only curse him silently whenever I heard him mentioned. Now, thinking that I would soon have the opportunity to see him in person, I felt a strange mix of emotions.

"Senior Brother Fang is the honor of our Cihang Jingdian. We've met him a few times before. When my sister and I bid farewell to our sect leader, he said that Senior Brother Fang would also be heading to Youli later to help the Feather Clan. With Senior Brother Fang in charge, we're sure to defeat the Fire Worship Sect."

Yu Hong spoke excitedly. Just from the adoring light in her eyes, I knew she admired that guy surnamed Fang. Then there was the aloof Yu Ni, who didn't seem to care about us at all. Hearing Fang Qingshu's name, although she didn't show it as obviously as her sister, her tense expression softened, and a strange light appeared in her eyes. I knew that the hearts of these two sisters were already tied to that dead-headed Senior Brother Fang.

I was meeting the Neon sisters for the first time, and I had never met Fang Qingshu before. Seeing the two beautiful girls so enamored with him filled me with a strange mix of envy and jealousy.

Neither of us wanted to continue the conversation, and the campfire party ended there.

After that day, we set off together. Having two beautiful women as travel companions, especially among the most famous of the ten most beautiful women in the world, made even the surrounding scenery seem more glamorous.

In my previous understanding, those so-called chivalrous women who made a name for themselves in the martial arts world fell into two categories.

One type was those who weren't particularly attractive, or those who were once beautiful but had aged and remained unmarried, unwanted by any man—washed-up chivalrous women. These women, lacking in personal qualities, could only strive for success through their work or martial arts skills. Unfortunately, no matter how outstanding their achievements, in the eyes of others, they were still just sexually frustrated perverts, becoming objects of ridicule.

Another type is more troublesome. These women are beautiful, but lack real skill; they're all talk and no action, just empty shells who scream in the face of trouble. These women often come from prestigious families, and their purpose in wandering the martial arts world, besides learning a few basic skills and being restless, is probably to find a distinguished hero like Fang Qingshu to marry.

Beautiful girls often rely on their looks and practice martial arts half-heartedly, rarely achieving any real skill. Because of this, every year there are a few cases where daughters of noble families or princesses of small countries, having mastered their martial arts, wander the world wanting to use their skills to punish evil, only to be easily defeated in actual combat and brutally violated. Especially those idiotic women who storm up someone's mountain stronghold, hoping to wipe out the entire stronghold in one go—they often fail to eliminate the villains and end up being raped beyond recognition by the hundreds of bandits in the stronghold. The unlucky ones even end up being sold into brothels… I'm not kidding, I've slept with a few of these idiotic female warriors, and it was quite an experience, costing me a considerable sum.

"The path of the martial world is not easy," is an ancestral motto left by my philandering grandfather. My perverted father seems to have deeply understood this saying, so he never intended to roam the martial world. Despite possessing unparalleled martial arts skills, he was content to be a border guard and never concerned himself with martial arts matters.

I share this sentiment, so I contentedly served as a member of the Imperial Guard, yet I was still not in control of my own destiny, forced to wander the southern barbarians and now embroiled in the conflict between the Zoroastrianism and the Feathered Clan.

However, compared to my original two categories, the Japanese sisters are quite different. They were indeed very beautiful, but their skills were also formidable. Although we hadn't seen them in actual combat yet, so we couldn't fully assess their abilities, it was clear that their foundation in martial arts was extremely solid.

Every morning before setting off, the sisters would rise exceptionally early to practice their skills together. Their unique meditation posture was unclear; was it some kind of internal energy cultivation technique from the Palace of Light? Or was it mental training required to control beast demons?

In any case, unlike typical disciples of prestigious families who, relying on their sect's reputation, became arrogant and practiced casually, failing to unleash the full power of their superior martial arts when facing strong enemies, unable to withstand even a few moves from their opponents? This solid training, while not necessarily leading to a rapid increase in power in the short term, had a significant effect in actual combat. On several occasions, I watched them draw their longswords and use the unique swordsmanship of the Cihang Jingdian Palace to exchange blows. Each move was like a meteor shower, rippled with brilliant rainbows of light, clearly demonstrating their considerable skill.

I had always assumed that since they were disciples of the Temple of Light, they should know some holy magic for healing, detoxification, and dispelling curses. However, apart from wind magic, the six major magic systems are not interchangeable. If they could use beast magic, it was unlikely they could use holy magic.

This idea was soon confirmed when, when Xue asked them about the basics of light magic, Yu Ni remained indifferent, while Yu Hong looked troubled and said that they weren't actually good at light magic. When they encountered related problems, they relied on light magic scrolls and couldn't solve them with their own power.

"Oh dear..." Xue said dejectedly, "What a pity. I was hoping to learn some light magic. If I could learn some basics, it would be useful, instead of being completely useless like this."

"Are you kidding me? If I let you learn light magic, wouldn't I be in deep trouble? If I regain my memories like this, and my three fellow disciples come to kill me, I'll really be going to hell this time.

" "No way, Sister Xue, you're beautiful, and your kung fu is excellent. Besides, a kind-hearted girl like you will definitely achieve great things in holy magic very quickly."

"Really? Can I really do it? But Master always says I'm stupid. I can never learn what he teaches me."

"Huh? What did he teach you?"

"Oh, Master said that what he taught me was called Black..."

"Black Bridge Authentic Sausage!"

"No, Master, that's not what you said back then. You said what you taught me was called Black..."

"Black Face Cai Authentic Starfruit Juice!"

Before Xue could say the words "black magic" again, I covered her mouth and told Yu Hong with a smile that because I didn't want Xue's pure hands to be stained with blood, I didn't teach her martial arts or magic. I only taught her how to stuff sausages and squeeze starfruit juice.

The Neon sisters aren't the type of women who are all looks and no brains, especially Yu Ni. It's clear this ice queen is quite perceptive, and given their background in the Palace of Light, they're particularly sensitive to things like dark magic. I'd better not give them any leverage.

It's all Mao Yan'an's fault, though. Of all the things he could come up with, when introducing me, he actually said I was the head instructor of the Royal Guard of the Kingdom of Alibuda, a first-rate martial arts master. Such a boast made the Neon sisters look at me with incredibly strange eyes.

"Hey! Why did I become a martial arts instructor?"

"Because your surname is Lan now."

The strange motive... I really don't understand what Mao Yan'an was thinking.

"So you're Brother Lan, my apologies."

Yu Ni and Yu Hong said some polite words, but I could see the doubt in Yu Ni's eyes. It's understandable; with their sharp eyes, they should be able to tell a person's martial arts level. With my third-rate martial arts, to say I could become the head instructor of a kingdom's Royal Guard—even I don't believe such a lie.

Therefore, when I explained to them that Ah Xue was my little apprentice, both sisters looked very suspicious. When we set off, Ah Xue carried me on her back in a bamboo chair, and they were almost speechless with surprise.

Sigh, if I had known it would turn out like this, I shouldn't have played that teacher-student game in the first place. I should have just taken this silly woman as my slave; at least I could roast her or eat her as I pleased without worrying about what others thought.

It's rare to find someone without the arrogance of a noble family, because the disciples of the Light Palace I've encountered in the past are either cold and aloof like Tianhe Xueqiong, or arrogant and disdainful of others. At first, I thought that since they were among the direct descendants of the current generation of the Light Palace, their attitude would be very high, but after talking to them, I learned that their master, the Heart Lamp Hermit, is an extremely approachable and kind person. He passed on this attitude to his disciples, and because of their work in apprehending criminals, they spend most of their time working alongside lower-level personnel, humbly learning from experience, without any sense of superiority.

Another reason was that the sisters' financial situation was only average; they didn't have a large sum of money in their pockets, so their attitude couldn't be particularly high.

However, compared to their attitude, there was something jarring: the two sisters placed great importance on the spirit of justice. Whenever any illegal or criminal behavior was mentioned, not only Yu Hong but even the usually calm Yu Ni couldn't help but feel indignant, wishing to bring all the evildoers to justice immediately.

Since I didn't look like a law-abiding citizen at all, I felt uncomfortable hearing their words, and they seemed to have noticed this as well. They were noticeably wary of me, and the few questions they asked me didn't seem like pleasantries but rather like they were trying to elicit information about my crimes.

To be honest, it's not a problem for law enforcement officers to value the spirit of justice, but valuing "justice" to the point of even surpassing "the rule of law" felt a bit strange.

Amidst this slight incongruity, we continued on our way. In terms of speed alone, the Ni Hong sisters spreading their wings and flying straight to their destination was obviously the fastest way. But Mao Yan'an said that the Zoroastrian sect's target was the Feathered Clan, and now that a large force had arrived nearby, they would definitely set up an aerial blockade. Flying over would increase the chances of being discovered and intercepted, making it very unsafe.

Hearing this, the Neon Sisters had no choice but to abandon their plan and quicken their pace with us. Perhaps Mao Yan'an's words made sense, but based on my intuition, I felt that his purpose in saying this was to prevent the Neon Sisters from separating from us too quickly and reaching Skeva City.

Since we were walking, avoiding enemies became crucial. Otherwise, if we ran into an orc patrol like the previous two days, alerting a large force to intercept us, we would have to fight our way through, which was not worthwhile. Moreover, although the Neon Sisters had greatly increased our strength, we weren't powerful enough to confidently overcome every obstacle. To avoid unforeseen complications, we had to evade enemies.

In this situation, Violet came in handy. The beastmen all grew up in the mountains and wilds, mastering various techniques to conceal their presence. From a human perspective, it's impossible to compete with their innate, heightened sense of smell and sight. But regardless, a fully-fledged wild beast's sensory abilities far surpass those of an ordinary beastman.

We've only been able to travel safely this far thanks to Violet, and now, at this crucial juncture, Violet has fully demonstrated her superior abilities. No matter which direction the beastman patrol comes from, she always detects them first, growling and leading us to change direction, avoiding an unnecessary bloodshed.

"Amazing! Sister Xue's leopard is truly skilled. I've never seen such a clever beast before."

"Of course! Violet is my dearest friend."

Xue and Yu Hong chatted and laughed, the two of them being the most compatible throughout the entire journey, often talking about random things. And I can guarantee that, apart from Xue, in the eyes of the two sisters, I, Mao Yan'an, and Violet were simply incredibly strange.

Especially Yu Ni. This aloof girl seemed highly wary of everything, maintaining a polite yet distant distance. Although I had always wanted to find an opportunity to talk to her and build some rapport, she would only offer a few perfunctory greetings before turning away, completely ignoring me.

I could console myself with the thought that I had a beautiful lover like the Dragon Girl and a charming girl like Ah Xue whom I could do as I pleased—two of the Four Heavenly Maidens were already mine, so why should I care about these two unromantic girls? However, I knew deep down that this was just self-deception.

The Dragon Girl might not be my lover. If things didn't go well in Skeva City, my place in her heart might be less than a pile of dung.

Ah Xue wouldn't let me do as I pleased either. It could have been, but I shouldn't have let her adopt that dead leopard. Now she's under Violet's tight protection; I can't even touch her. Plus, with so many people around, even our once-a-night oral sex is difficult to maintain.

Unable to quell my desire, I was constantly surrounded by three stunning beauties—any man would find it unbearable. Naturally, I wanted to seize this opportunity to pluck this "twin rainbow," but she was no pushover. Even disregarding the consequences and using any means necessary, finding an opportunity wouldn't be easy. Drugging her was a one-time thing; I wouldn't resort to such methods unless I had no other choice. Ultimately, after my intimate relationships with Ah Xue and Sister Dragon Girl, they weren't women I was willing to risk my life for.

However, traveling with a group of girls in the mountains, it would be ridiculous to say there were no eye-catching opportunities. On the evening of our third day, after confirming we were completely away from the orc patrols and preparing to set up camp, Mao Yan'an, who had been flipping through his travel journal, exclaimed in surprise, "Ah, I forgot! I discovered

this before when I came here; there's a secret hot spring nearby!" For a group of girls who were naturally clean, hearing the words "hot spring" in this situation was like bees seeing a flower. I didn't know how they cleaned themselves before we met, but for the past two days, to avoid the orc patrols, they hadn't dared to go near the stream, so they hadn't had a chance to draw water to cleanse themselves.

To men, going ten or fifteen days without bathing isn't a big deal, but for women, going two days without bathing is like hell. I understood this very well, so after hearing Mao Yan'an say this, I immediately and without showing any emotion kicked Ah Xue, who was sleeping against a tree trunk, waking her up and asking her to come with me to gather firewood.

Since Ah Xue was leaving, Violet would naturally follow her, lest I take advantage of the opportunity of being alone with her in the forest to plot against its mistress. This idea wasn't wrong, but this time I was going to prove that there was a reason why humans defeated elves and beastmen, becoming the masters of all things.

"Ah Xue, you gather firewood here, I'm leaving for a bit."

"Master, where are you going? The surrounding forest is so dark, I...I'm a little scared."

"What are you scared of? Little Violet will protect you, and I won't go far, I'll be back soon."

"Take me with you...wait, Master, you're not going to do something I don't want you to see, are you?"

"Hmm, as expected of my disciple, Ah Xue, you're getting smarter and smarter. Okay, since you insist on knowing, I'll tell you."

I whispered close to Ah Xue's ear, "I just heard water over there, I'll go fetch some water now, wash your little bottom clean, and then do all the work for the next few days at once, so you won't even be able to call for your mother later."

It was truly impressive. Hearing my words, Ah Xue's pupils widened instantly, her hair almost standing on end. She let out a gasp, turned, and ran off, Violet following her. The two, human and leopard, disappeared into the woods in a few swift movements.

Having shaken off their obstacle, and judging by the time, the beautiful sisters should be able to bathe with peace of mind. Following Mao Yan'an's description, I stealthily crept towards the location of the secret hot spring.

After a short while, the view suddenly opened up before me. Tree shadows swayed, and emerald waters shimmered with mist. Surrounded by lush green grass, a sizable hot spring pool emitted wisps of steam. In the poignant sunset, two beautiful young women's bodies were frolicking and washing in the water.

Not exactly voluptuous, the Feathered Clan women's bodies were always known for their slender, tall figures. The two sisters, still developing, stood facing each other, their almost identical bodies appearing so delicate and full of youthful vitality. The same smooth abdomen, the same supple waist, the same long, beautiful legs, reflected in the water, exuded a breathtaking beauty.

Even though they couldn't match Ah Xue's proud fullness, Yu Ni and Yu Hong's snow-white bodies boasted two pairs of firm, white jade breasts that stood proudly erect, swaying gently with their owners' movements, appearing perfectly sized to be grasped in one hand.

Seemingly to enjoy this unrestrained comfort, they even spread their snow-white wings, scattering warm sprays in the hot spring. With their wings spread, the two sisters resembled a pair of white swans, gliding through the water with indescribable elegance. Their slender breasts, delicate waists, and rounded, fragrant buttocks swayed alluringly, creating a picture of angels emerging from a bath—a truly beautiful scene. If there was any blemish on this picture… it was the presence of a pervert watching their movements, constantly masturbating.

(Damn it, they're too far away. I can't see the pretty things clearly. Is there any way to see them more clearly?)

I'm currently a full ten feet away from them. With the dim light, I can only see their beauty, not their reality. Logically, I should move closer, but the Neon Sisters are no ordinary people. Their half-orc bloodline alone gives them far sharper senses than normal humans. Not to mention, these two female constables must have some kind of professional skill like "seeing and hearing from above." If I'm not careful, they'll discover me, and the consequences will be severe.

(This opportunity is gone forever. If I get to Skeva's Tower City, I won't have this chance to spy anymore... I guess I'll have to take the risk.)

Having made up my mind, I surveyed the terrain and found a hill to the north. Although it wouldn't be closer than my current position, it would offer a better vantage point and the best view for spying in the vicinity. So, I climbed over without hesitation.

Contrary to my expectations, while the view improved after climbing the hill, it didn't help my plans. Just as I was regretting not buying spying gear before entering the mountain, I suddenly noticed a strange sound nearby. I

looked around to make sure I was alone, but as I stubbornly followed the sound, I saw the grass on my left seem to be shaking. Looking closer, I realized it wasn't grass at all, but a person dressed in grassy green clothing, covered in mud and grass as camouflage, using this perfect disguise to spy on me. Honestly, the disguise was flawless; if we hadn't been less than two feet apart and there hadn't been the strange sound, I definitely wouldn't have noticed.

This hot spring was truly secluded; there shouldn't be any outsiders within a mile radius. Ah Xue couldn't have been spying, and neither could Violet. So… the only suspect was one person.

"Mao..."

Before I could even utter a word, he swiftly covered my mouth, swallowing some camouflage mud from his palm along with it. Then, a piece of paper was handed to me.

"Both targets are extremely sharp-eyed. To avoid alerting them, remain silent." When two birds

fight, one cannot let the other reap the benefits. I wasn't foolish enough to expose his plot at this moment. I simply took the charcoal pencil and began scribbling furiously on the paper.

"You two-faced beast! You put on this sanctimonious act, saying there's a secret hot spring here, but you just want to peep, don't you!"

"Oh, please don't say that... Sanctimonious is how you appear. I'm young and energetic, what's wrong with wanting to see beautiful things? Besides, I'm here with the purest heart to perform art, don't confuse me with you, young master."

"Nonsense!"

I ran out of paper, so I quickly wrote two large characters and flipped the paper over to continue, "Everyone's here to peep, what's the difference between you and me?"

"Very different, where are your hands? Where are my hands?"

"Damn it, at this time, in this place, a man's hands should naturally be..."

Witnessing such beauty, my hands were naturally in my crotch, as for this perverted old man's hands... God, I can't believe it! He was writing and talking to me with his left hand, while his right hand manipulated three paintbrushes, capturing the scene of the beautiful woman bathing in front of him in a painting. He was incredibly fast, and in just a few strokes, he completed an uncolored outline sketch. Judging from the dozen or so unfinished works beside him, he had been here for quite a while.

"You...you're really a painter?"

"Actually, before I became famous, I worked as an assistant to a cartoonist in Ishtar..."

Mao Yan'an glanced at me, seemingly quite proud of his experience. And this guy was truly fully equipped; besides the disguise props, he was wearing a pair of high-powered binoculars on his face, and because he was worried about being noticed for their reflection, the lenses were even coated with camouflage. He was definitely an expert.

After receiving a pair of identical lenses from him, the two men reconciled, setting aside their pointless disputes to enjoy the beautiful scenery together.

The lenses were indeed top-quality; with magnified clarity, not only the feathers on the wings but even the tiny, pale golden hairs between the Neon sisters' legs were clearly visible. I was almost moved to tears; all the hard work and risks had been worthwhile.

In the pool, as they washed each other's bodies, the sisters chatted. They hadn't had many opportunities to speak privately these past few days, and they had many things on their minds to discuss.

The hot spring was warm, but as evening approached, the air had become slightly chilly. Yu Ni came up behind her sister, sprinkling water on her delicate shoulders, slowly tracing the curves of her body, rubbing Yu Hong's pink back, bypassing her wings, and moving down to her round buttocks, rubbing each side vigorously.

Yu Hong smiled shyly, reaching out to hug her sister's waist, but Yu Ni dodged, and the two sisters burst into laughter. The intimate gesture made me swallow hard, feeling a little strange, but I couldn't quite put my finger on it.

"Sister, do you think our trip to Loucheng to offer assistance will be successful?"

"Yes, Aunt Katrina has made thorough preparations. Besides Senior Brother Fang, I heard she's also invited Li Huamei, the Golden Admiral of the East Sea, to help. If Admiral Li really arrives, even if the Beast Master emerges from seclusion, we won't fear the Fire Worship Cult."

Yu Ni said, continuing to pour water onto her sister's snowy neck, slender shoulders, and chest. As the water droplets rippled along the curves of her chest, hanging from the tips of her pink breasts, their glistening color resembled a luscious, tempting fruit.

"Sister, have you noticed how strange the way that young master Lan Diao looked at us was?"

"Hmph, what's so strange about it? He's just a lecher. Since we debuted, haven't we been looked at like that countless times? Sometimes I get really angry. Why do we have to be judged by those men, ranked among the top ten beauties, as if we were born to be their entertainment?"

Yu Hong stuck out her tongue and laughed, "Sister, don't be angry. I feel bad too. This time we have to travel with that kind of man. It feels like we're being swarmed by maggots all the time. It's so uncomfortable. Hehe, but Sister Xue is really beautiful and kind-hearted. She's completely different from her master. I never imagined that there would be such a celestial being among the other beast races besides our Feather Clan."

“That Miss Xue is indeed rare. I’ve never seen a woman with such a sacred aura. She’s practically a natural-born talent for cultivating light magic. But why would she follow such a master? That’s very suspicious. Maybe she’s involved in some illegal human trafficking scheme. We should investigate after this matter is settled.”

“Actually… if it weren’t for the fact that we’re unfamiliar with the terrain and need Uncle Mao to guide us, and he’s with Uncle Mao, I wouldn’t want to be with this kind of person, let alone let him know our background.” “

Hmm… I’m worried too, because according to Master, this Uncle Mao used to…”

Because Yu Ni deliberately lowered her voice, I didn’t hear what she said, but just hearing what I heard, knowing how much people disliked me, was enough to make me furious. I vowed that one day, I would make these two ungrateful women cry and repent. I turned my head to look at Mao Yan’an. This art fanatic seemed not to have heard these words at all, only focusing on his paintbrush, drawing one sketch after another at a rapid pace.

While I was still in a daze, the situation below had already changed again.

Seemingly unable to withstand her sister's scrubbing, Yu Hong let out a soft cry and collapsed onto her sister's body. The wings on her back gradually shrank and disappeared, replaced by barely audible moans, faintly filled with desire.

"Sister, these past few days... we haven't been able to find a chance, little sister... I miss you so much..." Yu Hong said shyly, her cheeks flushed.

This scene alone left me speechless. My hand, which was in my crotch, completely forgot what it was doing, just gripping it tighter and tighter . A word floated in my mind, yet I couldn't believe it rationally.

Ignoring my shock, Yu Ni had already swept her sister up in her arms, letting the almost dazzlingly white body float on the water's surface. Her face, usually cold, was now filled with a joyful smile. It wasn't the gentle smile between family members, but the smug smile of a man seeing his beautiful young wife fawning over him.

"Little rascal, I knew you wanted it as soon as you folded your wings. What? It's only been a few days since I touched you, and you're already craving a man?"

"I...I don't want a man, I only want my sister, okay?"

Thick steam enveloped the two sisters, isolating them from the rest of the world. Just as I watched with almost heartbroken eyes, Yu Ni kissed her younger sister's lips, and Yu Hong, as if she had been waiting for this moment, eagerly pressed her lips to meet hers.

Drops of saliva splashed onto Yu Ni's long golden hair, like a golden flash across the sky. She turned her face to the side, revealing the contours of her delicate and straight nose, her full red lips connected to her sister's slightly parted lips by a silvery thread of saliva, transforming her usual aloofness into an indescribable alluring charm.

"Ah... Sister... You smell so good..."

Yu Ni licked the silver thread connecting her lips with her sister's, looked at Yu Hong's pretty face, chuckled, and her delicate hand, twirling a strand of soft hair, slid down her delicate forehead to her pert nose, then to her soft and alluring lips, down her fair neck... finally stopping at the mound of her breasts.

Slowly, she closed her fingers, making a full fist, and freely kneaded and pinched the mounds, searching for the buds at the peaks, quickly making them hard and taut...

"Mmm..." Yu Hong moaned softly, the sensation of friction against the soft skin making her whole body weak and limp as she received her sister's caresses.

"You're good. Those stinky men are all useless good-for-nothings, acting like rubbing animals all day long. How can I let them touch my lovely little sister?" Yu Ni chuckled softly, her hands continuing to knead her sister's soft, warm breasts.

“Men…how can they compare to my sister? I love you the most, sister…” Under the frequent stimulation of her chest, Yu Hong’s voice became more and more tender.

Yu Ni brazenly pinched and twisted the pink nipples that were as hard as grapes, while Yu Hong obediently closed her mouth, not letting out a moan.

“That’s right, that’s right. Mom isn’t around right now, so who else can love you besides your sister?

Be a good girl, your sister loves you the most…”

As if it were a reward, Yu Ni’s slender fingers quickly moved to her sister’s crotch, to the slightly raised mons pubis.

“Ah…woo…” Yu Hong twisted her body, happily responding to her sister’s movements. The slender fingers first gently teased the sparse golden hairs, then slowly traced the slightly damp petals, and then reached the bud at the top, tugging at it intentionally or unintentionally.

"No... Sister, it hurts..."

Yu Ni's fingers teased recklessly, and Yu Hong gasped for breath, her consciousness gradually blurring...

"Does it hurt? Then do you still want to do it?"

Yu Ni chuckled, playing with her younger sister's cute nipples, then suddenly grabbed the erect bud at the tip, her fingers simultaneously entering her wet crevice...

"Ah... Sister... Don't let go..." Yu Hong's whole body suddenly convulsed, she gasped rapidly, her weak hands gripping Yu Ni's invading wrist, making futile resistance...

"Good girl, does it feel good?" Yu Ni skillfully teased her younger sister, slowly withdrawing her fingers and then suddenly thrusting them in again. The continuous stimulation enveloped Yu Hong's entire body in a bewitching pink hue.

"Sister...no, I don't want it to be just like this...hurry up, treat Hong'er like usual!"

Finally, she managed to coax her sister into begging for mercy. Yu Ni smiled proudly and led her sister to the ground by the pond. With one hand, she spread Yu Hong's snow-white, tender legs wide apart; with the other hand, she slid back and forth between her buttocks and cleft, her hand covered in glistening nectar. Her

soft, cotton-like buttocks were shamefully exposed, and being caressed by her sister in her private parts, the insecurity of being at her mercy chilled her spine. However, the pleasure in her lower body caused her buttocks to involuntarily twist. Extreme shame and pleasure intertwined, causing the girl to convulse and utter sounds that resembled crying.

"Please, sister... don't tease Hong'er anymore... um... you... you don't care about Hong'er at all..."

Like a seasoned womanizer familiar with the source of female pleasure, Yu Ni chuckled, parting her younger sister's fair legs, making the already overflowing flower valley even more prominent. At the same time, she also parted her own legs, lowering her waist and slowly pressing closer. After a moment, the two sisters' tender private parts were in the most intimate union.

"Ah... sister..." As if comforted by her beloved, Yu Hong's expression seemed extremely satisfied. She hugged one of her sister's jade legs to her chest, rubbing it back and forth with her plump and lovely breasts.

Yu Ni also seemed to be enjoying herself quite a bit. She swayed her slender waist, controlling the rhythm of their mutual rubbing, allowing her younger sister to experience wave after wave of pleasure in the rising tide of desire.

"No...not there..." Suddenly, Yu Hong, immersed in the pleasure of sex, cried out in alarm; her sister, without her noticing, parted her fair buttocks with her index finger, gently teasing the folds of her anus before pressing it inside.

"Ah..." A burning pain spread from her groin throughout her body. Yu Hong cried out, trying to escape the probing fingers inside her, but the close connection between her and her sister's bodies made her unable to move. Although she was willing to give everything to her sister, the sudden roughness made her cry out in pain, and her buttocks involuntarily swayed violently up and down.

"Sister...why? Why are you doing this to Hong'er? Why are you punishing Hong'er?"

"This is to make you remember that you can't have feelings for anyone other than your sister. These past two days, I've seen you and that Xue girl always smiling at each other. Do you know how unhappy I am?"

"I'm sorry, sister, I...I actually wanted to bring Sister Xue over. She's so beautiful, I'm sure you'll like her as much as you love Hong'er. I didn't know you'd be unhappy..."

She groaned continuously, experiencing a pain and pleasure that was unlike anything she had ever felt before. Humiliation and pleasure mingled, intensely stimulating Yu Hong's reason and body.

"Silly girl. Would your sister like anyone else besides you? It doesn't matter if they're male or female. No matter how beautiful they are, your sister only wants my obedient little sister."

After hearing the explanation, Yu Ni withdrew her finger with relief, then slid it to the top of her sister's flower valley, playing with the wet pearl on the slit.

"Ah...Mmm...Hmm..." Unable to withstand the multiple stimulations, Yu Hong finally surrendered to the pleasure of her sensitive body, crying out in shame and moaning in excitement.

Her sister squeezed her thighs together, sometimes lightly, sometimes heavily, rubbing them back and forth against her most delicate flower garden, generating a burning, electric-like desire. Her trembling body went limp on the ground, only able to let her sister play with her...

The last shred of reason was taken over by the fiery pleasure, and desire completely controlled her entire body...

Her stiff body began to soften, her round buttocks swaying with the friction between her vulva, her throat moaning incessantly, as if trying to push away the pleasure that entangled her nerves. A feeling of needing to urinate gradually rose in her abdomen, and Yu Hong quickly shook her body, trying to release it.

Suddenly, her delicate body convulsed, the muscles between her legs twitching uncontrollably, and Yu Hong finally couldn't hold back, crying out like a child who had wet the bed.

"Mingming... Sister! Sister!" With the swaying of her snow-white buttocks, gusts of heat shot out...

"Ha... I've climaxed!" Yu Ni swayed her beautiful hair, excitedly shouting, tightly hugging her younger sister's pink legs in front of her chest. As the wet feeling between her legs gradually expanded, she also climbed to the forbidden peak of carnal desire with her beloved younger sister.
