Eternal Temptation: Awakening Sinful Desires - Chapter 264

Chapter 264: My, Oh My… You Shouldn’t Tease An Old Woman Like Me.
Asher was left flabbergasted upon witnessing this scene unfolding in front of his eyes, as he didn’t expect Elder Katrina to be this bold and shameless to go out of her way and talk about him in such a way while not holding anything back!

First she made all the ladies interested in him by complimenting his appearance, making them fall prey to her trap of temptation and desire; then she manipulated the men, arousing their jealousy and telling them that their future wives could be snatched away by him if they didn’t become stronger, which ended up triggering them into hating him.

Such a skillful display of social manipulation using simple words!

“This woman…” Asher muttered under his breath with his eyes wide open.

Seeing these men’s reactions made him feel sorry for them because it seemed like they fell for her trick, hook, line, and sinker, while the women weren’t much better than them.

They were also staring at Asher with hopeful expressions as they daydreamed about him being their boyfriend or husband, making them blush as they imagined him romantically sweeping them off their feet before carrying them away like in some fairy tale.

Well, not like he cared about that. Asher just found this whole situation hilarious. He almost burst out laughing, but he managed to keep it under control for now, instead grinning at Elder Katrina in response.

Seeing that smirk of his, she returned a mischievous wink to him, then walked towards him before stopping in front of him.

“Congratulations, Young Master Asher. With this, you’re now a part of the Twilight Mist Sect.”

“Thank you, Elder Katrina. However… I didn’t expect that you would give such a welcome, making all the young men my enemies. As expected of the person leading the Dual Cultivation Hall, you sure know how to pull the strings of one’s emotions.” Asher’s voice was filled with praise for her as he gave a faint smile to Elder Katrina.

Upon hearing those words, her mischievous smile widened even further. “Oh my… Young Master Asher, what are you saying? I’m just looking out for you as the elder who cares about the sect’s disciples. Don’t you see how all the young girls here are attracted to you after I introduced you? Those gazes of theirs contain quite an intense longing. Isn’t this a nice and warm welcome?”

Hearing this made Asher realize that she wasn’t done playing yet, and he couldn’t help but reply with amusement in his tone, “…you’re very considerate.”

“Fufufu… Of course I am.” Katrina giggled, but before she could say anything else, Asher closed the distance between them while giving a knowing look towards her before continuing with a playful voice, “However… I wonder if you would give a personal welcome to me, too?”

Katrina raised an eyebrow when he got closer, but she didn’t back away; instead, she stayed where she was, and after she heard his words, her lips curled upwards, forming an enticing smile. “Hehe… What kind of personal welcome do you have in mind, Young Master Asher? It can’t be what I’m thinking, right?”

Hearing this, Asher brought his face close to her ear and whispered, “For example… do you think you could give the reward you promised for impressing you and provide cultivation guidance?”

There was a long silence after that as she stared at him wide-eyed, looking like she didn’t expect that response from him.

After all, the way he acted suggested he wanted something else—something more intimate than just cultivation guidance from her.

After a few seconds, however, she burst out laughing and speaking in a sultry tone, “My, oh my… You shouldn’t tease an old woman like me. What if I misunderstand your intention and fall head over heels for you? Fufu… who knows what might happen then?”

She paused before leaning forward and continued while whispering into his ear with a seductive voice, “However, if it’s about guidance… I can give it to you anytime you want. A very personal guidance that will leave you breathless.”

“Hahaha… I look forward to that.”

Many had a shocked expression when they saw Asher and Elder Katrina standing close together in a compromising position, whispering something in each other’s ears.

They looked like a pair of lovers enjoying a private moment, oblivious to the rest of the world, which caused jealousy to arise within those present, and some even cursed at him.

Meanwhile, Argon, who was among those watching, felt his face burning from anger, and he had an ugly expression on his face, unable to control it anymore.

“That bastard! How dare he steal my thunder? How dare he flirt with the woman that I want in public? Does he think that just because of his dark spirit, everyone would fear him, making it easy for him to do whatever he wants without consequences? I won’t let this humiliation go unavenged… I’m going to make sure he pays for this! No… even death isn’t enough. He’ll experience worse than hell before I finish with him!” He murmured under his breath while gritting his teeth.

When Jacob Gray noticed Argon’s anger, he gave him an inquiring glance before looking at Asher, Elder Katrina, and then back at Argon. “Hey, brother, calm down. Didn’t you hear the Elder Harrius’s words? His background is more than enough to crush you and me. Stop thinking about unnecessary things. It won’t end well for you if you mess with him.”

Argon’s eyes shot towards Jacob, and after staring at him for a second, he snorted, “Hmph… I don’t care about his background! As long as I become strong enough, I will get my revenge! That arrogant bastard won’t get away with his attitude this time!”

“Sigh…” Jacob wanted to advise his friend more, but at that time he received a notification on his family’s communication device that it was urgent.

When he looked at the contents of the message, he froze in shock, and after he was able to snap himself back to his senses, he looked towards Argon and said with some hesitation, “Um… Argon, something bad just happened.”
