Eternal Temptation: Awakening Sinful Desires - Chapter 215

Chapter 215: I’m not an Exhibitionist.
The forest was peaceful and tranquil, with birds chirping in the background and the wind rustling through the leaves of the trees. Sunlight filtered through the gaps between the branches of the tall oak trees, casting dappled shadows across the grassy floor. There was a pleasant fragrance of flowers wafting around the area, invigorating the senses and inspiring energy. The overall atmosphere was very serene and refreshing. As the breeze blew by, it caused the petals of wildflowers to dance through the air like butterflies. It created a picturesque scene that seemed to be painted right out of a fairy tale book.

In such a beautiful landscape, one could feel their heart becoming lighter and their worries melting away just by standing within its vicinity. The wonder of nature has always managed to soothe the soul and fill one’s soul with renewed vigor. This sense of harmony and unity was something that humans could never achieve, even with all of their technological advancements and achievements. They were too busy rushing around in their everyday lives, chasing after money, power, and fame, forgetting that the most valuable thing in life was right in front of them all along, which would allow them to reach a deeper understanding of cultivation and enlightenment.

After all, true spiritual growth requires both internal reflection and external exploration. Without a balanced combination of both, it would be impossible to cultivate a healthy and sustainable mindset that would benefit oneself in the long run. Thus, those who sought enlightenment through nature were able to gain insights into themselves better than those who only focused on cultivating their physical strength without taking care of their mental state as well.

It was for this reason that powerful cultivators often retreated into the mountains or forests in order to meditate or reflect upon their own self-worth, or traveled the world in search of spiritual guidance and enlightenment. These experiences allowed them to connect with the natural forces that surrounded them and better understand how these forces affected their inner selves, thereby helping them improve their overall cultivation and enabling their souls to ascend to higher realms of existence.

In other words, nature was the perfect teacher for cultivation because it was always there to guide its students along the path to achieving their full potential, regardless of their background or current level of progress. As such, anyone who wished to increase their soul cultivation would find immense benefit in exploring the wonders of nature around them and absorbing the lessons taught by Mother Earth herself.

However, the tranquility of the forest was soon broken when, somewhere deep in the forest, a spatial rift appeared out of thin air, which was then ripped open by an invisible force. A moment later, four silhouettes stepped out from the void. They were cloaked in dark robes that concealed their identities from sight, but their body shapes indicated that they were all women with attractive proportions.

Once they were all out of the tear in space, they surveyed their surroundings before one of them, the one closest to the rift, nodded to her companions. “Everything looks good. There doesn’t appear to be anyone nearby who could’ve detected our arrival. The three of you can relax on this continent and cultivate at your leisure. I will go on to continue misleading those damn bastards from pursuing you. Make sure to not draw any unnecessary attention to yourselves, and you will be safe. However, if anyone comes close to uncovering your secret, contact me right away through this crystal ball, and I will come to get you out of this place. Understood?”

“Yes, Aunt!” The other three figures replied in unison before the one who gave instructions tossed the crystal orb in her hand toward the lead figure. Then she disappeared into the rift once more, which closed behind her, sealing it shut and disappearing into thin air, leaving no trace of its existence.

The remaining three figures stood still for a while longer before letting out sighs of relief. The woman who caught the crystal ball stored it away in her storage ring, and she turned around to address her two companions but narrowed her when the middle one, who was clad in a dark robe similar to hers with a hood that covered most of her head and features, began to remove her clothing. Underneath her robe, she wore a black qipao-style dress that showed off her cleavage while covering her entire torso down to the upper portion of her thighs. She wore black stockings that accentuated her long, slender legs and black high heels that completed her outfit. Her hair was tied back into a ponytail that reached halfway down her back, revealing her beautiful facial features that looked almost doll-like. Her eyes glowed red with mysterious power, and her lips were painted crimson red. She was indeed a peerless beauty with a seductive aura surrounding her that drew people’s attention toward her.

“Ling’er, Aunt told us not to attract any attention, yet here you are flaunting your charms around. What happened to you wanting to avoid conflict like the rest of us? I don’t think she meant your exhibitionist fetishes when she said to blend in with the locals.” The woman to the left commented, frowning as she studied her companion’s attire with disapproval written across her face.

“Shut up, Xueling! I’m not an exhibitionist. I just like dressing up and showing off my beautiful appearance! Besides, who do you think I am? If someone dares to approach me and try anything funny, I’ll teach them what it means to mess with me! Hmph! Nobody is worthy of touching my precious skin! And I’m not trying to lure people in for mating! Stop saying stupid things already!” Ling’er replied with a huff as she crossed her arms under her large breasts and looked away with a displeased expression.

Xueling shook her head with exasperation and sighed. “Sigh… Fine, whatever! Do what you want!” She then also continued to remove her cloak since there was no point in hiding her identity anymore since Ling’er was already exposing her own.

As she removed her cloak, her long, raven black hair cascaded down to her waist. She wore a white hanfu-style dress that covered her entire figure, from the neck downwards to below her ankles. However, her curves were visible beneath the silk material, and the tightness of the clothing outlined her perfect figure. She had a cold aura emanating from her that seemed to chill the air around her. Her icy blue eyes held a sharp edge to them, and her skin was smooth and pale like porcelain.

Meanwhile, the third woman, who was wearing a cloak, had yet to reveal herself as she admired her surroundings while humming a tune. Her voice sounded so soothing and calming that it seemed to wash away all negative emotions surrounding her, replacing them with positive ones instead. It was a very pleasant feeling to experience since it could relieve stress and tiredness. After a few moments of observing her environment, she turned her gaze back to Xueling and Ling’er, who had already finished removing their clothes, revealing their stunning appearances. Her eyes softened when she saw the two beauties, and a warm smile appeared on her lips.

“Oh my, both of you have already taken off your robes. I should catch up,” she mused as she undid her cloak as well, revealing her body underneath. Her body was curvier than Xueling’s, and her bust was larger than Ling’er’s. However, unlike those two, she had a gentle demeanor about her that made her seem like an angel descended from heaven. Her black hair was tied back into a low bun, and her turquoise eyes shone with kindness. She wore a pure-white cheongsam that had golden patterns embroidered on its sleeves and collar.

Her beauty radiated outward like sunshine on a sunny day. When she looked at the other two, she found them staring at her with their eyes narrowed. She tilted her head in confusion, wondering why they were looking at her that way. “What’s wrong? Is something wrong with the way I dressed?”

“What do you have to say now, Xueling? Who do you think will gather more attention on this continent when we have her by our side? Look at her; she stands out even among cultivators! Even with the three of us standing here, Mei’er is the one who radiates beauty, like an immortal goddess descended from the heavens. Even the air around her seems purer! Anyone who lays eyes on her will be struck dumb and fall in love with her!” Ling’er exclaimed as she gestured toward the woman standing beside her.

Xueling was speechless at what Ling’er just said. She couldn’t deny that Meiling had a unique aura that made others admire her whenever she was around. But she knew Meiling wasn’t doing anything. It was just part of her natural charm.

“Mmhmm, why would you say that? After all, we are triplets, and except for our eye color, everything else is the same,” Meiling asked Ling’er with innocent curiosity, then she glanced at Xueling, “right?”

Ling’er and Xueling stared at Meiling as if she were stupid. They couldn’t believe that she was oblivious to her effect on others. “Sigh… Nevermind, Mei’er. Don’t listen to her nonsense,” Xueling shook her head in resignation as she replied to Meiling, “Let’s just hope we don’t encounter anyone troublesome here on this continent.”

Meiling blinked her eyes a few times before she nodded in agreement with Xueling’s suggestion, and Ling’er shrugged her shoulders, conceding defeat. “Fine, fine, whatever! Let’s go; I think the sect recruitment trials will start soon.”

After speaking, the three women left the area and made their way toward the Twilight Mist Sect.
