Transcending Limits 11 My humble self

Glaring at the instigator, Sheng Tian growled "You want to talk to me that much? Aren't you a little desperate?"

Rolling her eyes, Xiao Lian snorted "Stop your perverted fantasies. And What is with that creepy smile you had earlier?"

Sheng Tian ignored her, got up and drew the curtains to let the hazy sunshine in. But what actually got in was cold wind sending shivers.

There were no birds chirping. It was a deadly silence. The mist and fog were all over. Sheng Tian muttered under his breath "It's still some time for winter. There is nothing wrong with sleeping more."

Looking at Xiao Lian standing with hands on her hips implying no more discussion, he dejectedly walked into the shower.

Xiao Lian looked at his desolate back and a small smile formed on her extremely beautiful face.

'Seriously, I would rather want a normal life too. Sleeping till late, eating all kinds of food, having someone to live with and care for, but that isn't what destiny had in store for me. If I had a choice, I would rather not wake you from your beautiful dreams.

But I don't have much of time. Neither do you. I wouldn't care about the impending danger earlier, but now I can only hope that things go well and the Divine Realm survives.

Else, the only choice is to escape to a faraway Low Worlds to survive. To even do that, you need to enter the Divine PathWay.

Though you have a heaven-defying cultivation speed, it takes more and more time to breakthrough in the higher realms.

You need to be diligent. Please be strong to at least protect yourself. I feel that you are the only person I want to protect now.'

Sheng Tian wanted to get some basic idea of the forbidden land. So he went to a restaurant to inquire.

He was currently in a disguise by Xiao Lian's profound art. He was handsome with silky hair and around 18 years Old.

Sheng Tian felt that he made the right choice in having a disguise. He realized that the more he cultivated, the more handsome he was becoming. Right now, he is incomparable to the self who met Xiao Lian.

Sheng Tian didn't dare to think what would happen if his appearance led many women to leave their husbands to pursue him.

He didn't want to cause a commotion and give too many green hats. Otherwise, he would have discussed the principles of life with those women.

When he told his noble thoughts and how he was making such a huge sacrifice to save those men from their grievances, Xiao Lian felt like crying but had no tears.

Why is this fellow too much of a braggart? Can't he have an inch of shame?

She couldn't bear with him anymore and used the disguise technique on him hurriedly returning to cultivation. She was afraid that she might be angered to death by his words.

Sheng Tian saw a couple in the middle stealing the spotlight. Looking at them, he realized that the woman was beautiful while the man was handsome and charming.

The crowd was gossiping about them.

When he was about to ask for some info, an arrogant young man entered the restaurant with his guards. He dressed in a very lavish way. Though a bit handsome, there was something in his temperament that made people repel him.

Everyone in the restaurant stopped talking, the arrogant young man looked at the couple, to be particular at the girl and said in a passionate voice.

"Liu Feifei, I, Qin Lie have never taken a liking to any woman. You are the only person I ever pursued. Come to me, I will treat you like a Queen." his eyes glowed with lust and affection.

Then, he turned to the Young Man sitting next to Liu feifei, "Who the hell do you think you are? To still have the galls to sit beside my Feifei?

If you kneel and beg for forgiveness, I will let you go with 2 limbs intact. Why are you not getting up yet? Anyone who offends me will have a life worse than death" he signaled to the guards.

The guards bolted to the Young Man.

"Ai, he is really done for."

"Not knowing the immensity of heavens."

Sheng Tian almost puked out listening to the crowd's reactions. He read the same thing again and again in the novels that he became a bit repulsive to it.

Shaking his head, his eyes narrowed and saw through the strength of both parties.

The Young Man is at Fifth Stage of Earth Realm! And that too only at the age of 17!

The guards were only at first stage of the Earth Realm.

The sequence of events transpired according to Sheng Tian's calculations with the young man crushing the guards like ants.

Qin Lie was shocked. But it soon turned into envy and hatred "So what if you have some cultivation? I will let you know what it means offending someone you shouldn't."

The young man stood up and spoke for the first time " Hurry up and kneel before your grandpa or else you will die." his tone sounded heroic and even more arrogant to everyone but Sheng Tian felt nothing but an urge to kick that fellow's ass for stealing a chapter from his story.

'Bastard. Doesn't he know that he is only a side character while this daddy here is the Main one?'

'Even I didn't get to have any badass moment, but this fellow took it. And he is acting badass in front of ME! Doesn't he know who I am? What was the author even writing?' he thought.

Everyone watched the Young Master Qin Lie being forced to submit and kneel on the ground calling the Young Man "Grandpa"

All of a sudden, a huge pressure fell on everyone in the room.

"Who dares?" a thunderous voice shook the city.

In the next second, an Old Man in his sixties appeared in front of Qin Lie.

The Young Man was pushed backward, his face turning pale.

"To raise your hands on the Young Master, what galls! I will cripple your cultivation and make you wish you were dead." the Old Man made a grasping motion.

The Young Man's face paled but he gritted his teeth and didn't yield.

His nerves bulged visibly on his forehead.

"Stop!" an anxious voice cried out.

With hurried blurred images, a beautiful young girl appeared in front of the Young Man.

She had a confident air and great body, looking very charming.

Sheng Tian said to Xiao Lian through mind transmission "See that girl, she will be his harem member. I betcha."

Xiao Lian asked with curiosity flooding her voice "Why do you seem to know such things more than me?"

Sheng Tian laughed proudly and said "Don't compare yourself to me. It only brings anguish. I was a huge fan of Eastern Fantasy. I know all the tropes at the back of my hand. You know what? There is even the poisoned princess trope."

She immediately stumped her foot in the Glazed Lotus realm and said with arrogance "I'm not a princess. I'm a Goddess! A goddess the entire Divine Realm dies for."

"Goddess?! Sorry missy, but the title of Demoness suits you the best. After all, which Goddess would want to prank that poor Old Man into kissing a Young Man on the streets yesterday? You even made them say those cheesy lines! How wicked can you get?"

"Sheng Tian, how narrow-minded you are! They were lovers in their past life. The Old Man was a woman. But their age difference was too big and she died without fulfilling their vow of the first kiss. I'm only helping those star crossed lovers with a kind heart.

Even if the World doesn't recognize my efforts, even if you blame me for my actions without knowing the truth, I will not stop my holy mission of fulfilling the dreams of the couple. Aii, why am I so kind?" she sighed deeply, looking like someone who went against the world for their beliefs, holding all the weight on their shoulders.

Sheng Tian almost spat out blood. What the hell?

If I didn't know her better, I would have believed her story.

What star-crossed? It's all crap.

You were just feeling bored and decided to play with those two innocent souls.

You even commented that they would look funny making out on the road and you were laughing so hard that my head hurt.

Yet, you still lie without blinking. I was right about you, you are definitely a Demoness!

His thoughts were interrupted by the deep voice of the Old Man.

"Miss Qin Qing, I'm afraid I can't do that. This brat humiliated Young Master Qin Lie. It is akin to humiliating the entire Great Qin clan! This only calls for one outcome-Annihilation of the Eight Generations!"

*Hiss* The crowd sucked in cold breath.

They were already having speculations earlier, but after hearing it for real, they were terrified.

Qin Clan-one of the Four Great Clans of the Continent. And Qin Lie was the Young Master of such clan. He even had an expert protecting him. He is definitely not an ordinary person.

The beautiful Young Girl Qin Qing, she should be the young miss of the Qin Clan.

Famed for her beauty, she is the dream many wished to obtain but none realized.

"Elder Zhang, my brother Qin Lie only got a result of his own actions. This has got nothing to do with the Qin Clan's reputation.

I know this Young Man, Ling Chen. He is a core disciple of the Sacred Sword Sect.

If you still want to make a move on him, go ahead. I will see if the Qin Clan will take responsibility for your actions." Qin Qing said.

*Hiss* *Hiss* This time, even more cold gasps sounded.

While Clans indeed stood in the top of the pyramid, Sects are a notch above them.

Every Sect only has a handful of Core disciples, each being the future pillars of the Sect. So, if one were to kill a Core disciple, the entire sect will hunt them down. Even the Great Clans can't come out unscathed!

"Ugh....." the Old Man was at a loss of words.

At the exact moment, Sheng Tian stepped forward and flashed a Token.

The Star shaped token was coiled by a Soaring Dragon.

Everyone's pupils constricted immediately.

"This???..."

"Core disciple of the Royal Palace!" someone exclaimed.

"What?!!!" everyone, including Qin Life, Qin Cheng, and the Old Man were shocked.

Royal Palace is the Strongest power in the continent. Be it ignorant or genius, everyone knew this.

The Royal family-Long Family nurtures them personally. With the Continent's ruler willing to cultivate them, each of these are monstrous geniuses.

Their status is higher than even Core disciples of the Sects. The current Emperor is said to take the matter of the Royal Palace very seriously.

Sheng Tian smiled Kindly and waved his hands. "Now, now. Don't praise me. Though I know that I'm handsome, you don't have to do this. Seeing the trouble here, I, Xiao Bai, just wanted to give a solution to both sides. How about it, you agree?" he looked at Ling Chen and Qin Lie.

Faced with an unexpected situation, they thought for a moment before nodding.

Sheng Tian's smile widened seeing them nod before he turned to the Old Man "Emperor Realm, not bad."

The Old Man smiled at the praise but the next second, he almost coughed out blood.

"But that's still not enough to join my fans' eunuch club. Try harder. After all, you are already so old."

Everyone looked at the Old Man pitifully. Ai, he already lost the most precious thing. What does a cultivation realm mean to him now?
