“We’re not lacking in anything good material life requires, and we have no interest in walking together with you.” Lonemoon’s grin grew even wider and his eyes narrowed. “We are, however, extremely interested in the spirit stones you have in your storage bag. Why not my fellow daoist take the initiative to show us some of it?”
The other party’s expression darkened. A female cultivator beside her laughed, “Hahaha… Boss, it looks like this little pretty boy doesn’t like you!”
“Boss! Why are you bothering to be so polite with them? I’ve never seen a man who looks like this, and with such a good cultivation. Let’s not waste it!”
“That’s right. When we entered the city, we found that they have no sect nor family. They don’t even have anyone backing them.”
“To become a couple with one of these beauties is far better than killing them – that would be such a waste. Boss, if you don’t want them, we will take them!”
“That’s right, Boss. There’s a woman with them as well, but it’s obvious she’s a good-for-nothing. Let’s take her down first.”
Lonemoon: “…” What were they talking about? He stared blankly at them. When they said beauties… Were they talking about Chef and himself?
Something in his brain seemed to connect.
Before he could think any further, the lead female cultivator’s expression turned even more sour. She tutted, “Hmph! At first, I wanted to treat you more nicely on account of the fact that you look good. But it looks like you’re not appreciating my politeness, and crave punishment.” She suddenly let off a suppressive force belonging to a Golden Core cultivator. “Don’t blame me for taking action, then.”
As she spoke, she conjured a jade seal in the shape of a square. She regulated her spirit Qi, then caused the dharmic weapon to float up in the air. “I do want to see who can protect you!” Once she finished speaking, her dharmic weapon flashed and flew towards them.
How dare she try to use such a low-grade dharmic weapon on him? Lonemoon narrowed his eyes and moved to crush that seal, but the weapon made a sudden turn in front of him. There was a thump as it hit Shen Ying right on the forehead!
There was a clear echo…
Lonemoon, who was ready to take action: “…”
Yi Qing, who failed to defend her: “…”
The heavy seal slid down Shen Ying’s body, causing a squarish image to form. Faintly, they could make out the words, “Soul-Crushing Seal”.
Absolute silence fell over the entire place…
Shen Ying, who had been eating her melon and observing, remained where she was, expressionless.
A minute passed, then two…
Lonemoon suddenly had a bad feeling in his gut.
“Mas… Master?” Even Chef’s voice trembled as he instinctively tried to get her attention.
Suddenly, Shen Ying clenched her fist. The fruit that she had been eating became putty in her hands.
The next thing they knew, an overwhelming grievous energy began to emit from her body. She was still expressionless, but they could feel her radiating overwhelming rage as a frightening aura exploded from inside her and spread out across the entire small realm. The ground shook.
Along with a series of cracks, the entire realm began to fall apart, as if unable to withstand the pressure. Thick cracks began to appear in the ground. Even the sky was twisting out of shape. There were strong winds blowing past them, and the sun had disappeared. The entire realm looked like it was going to fall apart.
“Holy shit!” Lonemoon jumped in shock. He pulled Shen Ying back before she really exploded. “Shen Ying, calm down, calm down! This is someone else’s plane!” You can’t just destroy it as you wish.
“Master…” Yi Qing was shocked too. “This has nothing to do with others.”
It was then that Shen Ying retracted her frightening powers. Everything around them barely held itself together. The five female cultivators were already buried in the ground, unable to move because they had been unable to withstand the pressure they felt. There was fear and confusion on their faces.
What just happened? Who were they? Where were they?
(⊙_⊙)
Shen Ying picked up the seal from the ground and walked toward them deliberately.
“You… What are you doing?” Perhaps sensing danger, the lead female cultivator stared at Shen Ying, wide-eyed. She tried to run, but she could not get her own body out of the soil. All she could do was watch as Shen Ying walked toward her with the seal in her hand, then squatted down in front of her.
Shen Ying lifted the seal up… then forcefully hit her head with it.
“You want to stamp, right? You want to leave a mark, right? Let me do it for you…”
If the melon-eater doesn’t get angry, they would always think that I’m good-for-nothing!!!
(╰_╯)#
As she spoke, she continuously hit the girl’s face with the seal. A moment later, the words “Soul-Crushing Seal” covered every inch of skin on her face. Even then, Shen Ying did not stop. She picked up the spirit sword next to her and carved the words into the skin on her body. After pondering for just a moment, she began to carve the words: This meat did not pass inspection – it’s not fit for consumption!
Shen Ying turned around and walked toward the other girls. She scared all of their bodies in the same way, and went specifically for the parts of their bodies that would be seen by others.
Lonemoon watched on in silence. He found that the words were not only carved on their skin. There was also a special aura that they emitted so that the words were carved even on their souls. In other words,unless they went through Samsara, these words will forever be carved into their lives. They would never be able to get rid of it, no matter how high their cultivations would become.
It looked like the female cultivators had really pissed Shen Ying off this time.
Shen Ying stamped their bodies for a total of one hour before she finally calmed down and reverted to her lazy demeanour. She turned back and walked toward Father Niu with five storage bags in her hands. She shoved it to Father Niu out of habit. “Here!”
Yi Qing: “…”
Lonemoon: “…”
She didn’t forget to pick up the loot after raging… Mm, suddenly, Lonemoon felt like she deserved to be treated.
Shen Ying retrieved another fruit and took a bite. After thinking for awhile, she turned to him and said, “I don’t like this step-mother!”
“…”
What do you mean?

——————
Lonemoon felt like something was amiss in the world. He felt this way while they were on the spirit boat earlier, and even after they entered they entered the Scattered Cultivators House. He looked into the eyes of all the cultivators in this world, and all of them gave him a weird feeling. Even their attitudes seemed… a bit overly warm.
In the beginning, he could not figure out exactly what was so strange about the world. After they bumped into those five cultivators, however, he realised that their words seemed to carry a hidden meaning. Not only had they approached them to steal from them, it seemed like their main aim was… him and Chef? They also talked about becoming a couple? At first, Lonemoon thought that their powers were special because they were demons or something, but it was obvious he was wrong.
If there was something common in everything that had happened earlier…
“Holy shit!” Lonemoon suddenly jumped, eyes widening. “This world has no male cultivators!”
From the people who tried to rob them to the disciples of the Dawning Pill Sect, all of them were women! Not one of them was a male. At first, Lonemoon thought that the Dawning Pill Sect was just a special all-female sect. That would explain why he did not meet even a single male cultivator there However, later he realised that the entire city only contained female cultivators.
“It’s not that there aren’t any, but there are very few.” Yi Qing turned green as he thought about this fact. If there really were no male cultivators, the people they met would have been suspicious of them once they announced that they, too, were cultivators.
Wait a moment!
“If there are so few male cultivators in this world…” Then according to the preferential treatment they gave to Lonemoon and Chef, as well as the way they treated Shen Ying with contempt after realising that she needed the two men to take care of her from time to time… “Could it be that this place is-”
“A world of female supremacy,” Shen Ying completed his sentence.
Lonemoon: “…”
Yi Qing: “…”
Son of a b*tch!
