Chapter 159 Chapter 159 An Angel from Beyond
"Do you have any idea why Clark is calling us all at the same time, Old Peng?" Ning Xi asked towards the middle aged man at her side.
She was still not used to looking at the invigorated appearance of Old Peng but nevertheless, the princess was slowly adapting to the current change on one of the closest people in our bored gamer's heart.
Old Peng was even perhaps no different than a family towards the ever enigmatic Clark at the moment.
This was why Princess Ning Xi and her mother Wan Fei had always treated Old Peng with much respect and definitely not a mere slave in the family.
'Old Peng is certainly not that old anymore and i would think that he will only grow younger with time.' Ning Xi mused inside.
She knew for a fact that with such a talented and powerful backer behind the old man like Clark, there was only a bright future ahead for this very faithful servant.
'But i guess the same could be said also for us then.' Ning Xi concluded in silence because she realized that she and her mother were also in the same boat of Old Peng.
"I don't know anything, Princess Ning Xi. I apologize for this old man's inadequacies." Old Peng paused and lent a short bow towards Ning Xi.
The latter also stopped walking and gazed at the middle aged man with exasperation.
"I told you time and time again that you can call me Ning Xi or even Xi'er, Old Peng. You shouldn't be so rigid before me." Ning Xi reminded the old man for the umpteenth time.
"I'm sorry, Princess Ning Xi but i really could not do that. I am but a lowly slave of the Lu Family and I am fully aware of the limitations of my station in life."
And same as always, Old Peng replied with the usual humble words that he had uttered countless times already.
"But you and Clark are almost the same as f..." Ning Xi had wanted to argue but alas, there was a wiser head amongst them that prohibited her from doing exactly what she had in mind.
"Let Old Peng be, Xixi. There are some things in life that you just can't undo with mere words and a simple request."
Wan Fei interrupted her daughter in mid speech as she looked intently on the bowed head of Old Peng.

"I understand, mother." The Princess of Haran nodded and took the first steps towards the long stairways that awaited their advent.

"CREAK!" The double doors opened up to spit the glorious figures of 2 equally beautiful women.
Ning Xi looked pure in her white dress while her mother Wan Fei stood in a flaming sexy fairy dress.
The latter as of late has been unusually bold in her choice of garments and everyone around her noticed this fact in plain aces.
They were of course wondering what had happened but no one amongst them could have guessed the real reason behind this delicious transformation.
Not that our avid gamer Clark would spill the beans for everyone's satisfaction.
"It's good that you have all arrived in time. Is our dinner ready downstairs?" Our bored gamer welcomed his trio of guests but other than that, he remained lazily lying down on his bed.
There was no need for much ceremony in front of his family in this xianxia world and so Clark continued to do what he was always best at.
He took a deep breath and enjoyed the moment for what it was. Every tick of the clock was time that he could never get back and so he relished every second of it to the fullest.
'And right now, i'm particularly examining 2 incredible feminine masterpieces before my eyes.' Clark did not notice that there was already a naughty smile that was plastered on his face.
"We have already cooked and prepared our dinner downstairs, Clark. Do you want us to bring some food in here?" Wan Fei asked as she tried to fathom the mind of our bored gamer.
"No. I will join you later in dinner. But first, there's something I need to give to you." Clark replied and threw an item into the air.
The familiar little thing traversed the distance between the two parties in quick speed but it was not enough for Wan Fei to miss such an easy catch.
"GRIP!" The Queen of Haran caught the object without suspense and even before she opened her palms to inspect the item with her eyes, she had already known what it was but not its purpose.
However, Wan Fei did not fail to take this chance to make a half truth jest in the moment.
"Why? Is this a marriage proposal, Clark? If it is then you won't ever hear me say nay in my lips." Wan Fei smiled sweetly while she presented an interspatial ring between her fingers.
A moment later, she also got a warm response from our bored gamer.
"Marriage is for kids, Wan Fei. Olden wise souls like us only know how to play." Clark offered a smart retort but there was a grin hanging on his face also.
During the 2 nights that he has been with this excellent female breed, Clark could really find no fault in Wan Fei as a lover.
She has far exceeded his expectations instead and was only too willing to take a third straight tumble in the bed once more tonight.
"Use the contents of that ring to cultivate earnestly, Wan Fei. That is enough for you to reach the first stage of Foundation Establishment Realm.
After you successfully step into that realm, I will give you more cultivation resources." Clark paused there and looked at his other two guests.
"Here are yours Lai Pang and Ning Xi. Cultivate well and diligently." Our good gamer addressed the two and same as the last, threw a pair of storage rings towards them.
Although in comparison to Wan Fei who had the potential of reaching the Foundation Establishment Realm, these two certainly lacked some qualifications in the way of the Dao.
Ning Xi had the potential of attaining the peak of Mortal Shedding Realm while Old Peng has an even worse potential than that.
If Clark has not given him a spiritual vein then cultivating would have continued as a mere dream for Old Peng. Still, potential for cultivators remained inconstant.
This is why those that could stumble into a rare fortune and inherit the lineage of some fallen expert in the past has a high chance of also changing their fate in accordance to the luck that they have brought upon themselves.
But in this case, all our bored gamer did was pour lots and lots of spirit stones as his investment into the future of his party.
'I believe that with this huge amount of resources, Lai Peng and Ning Xi could most definitely break through the shackles of their destiny.'
Clark nodded as he was thrilled for when the time these two could also help him battle against that wretched Elder God.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Thank you, master! This slave will not fail your expectations!" Old Peng kneeled in place and he had tears springing from his eyes.
He made a pledge right then and there and knew that he would do what he must or else die trying in the process of achieving them.
"Thank you, Clark." Ning Xi said in a soft voice.
She would have wanted to reject at first but after she found out what was inside the storage ring in her hands, the hesitant Princess of Haran could not help but reconsider in a flash.
There were millions of spirit stones inside!
'This is too much!' Ning Xi exclaimed in silence. She could feel her heartbeat race and there was still a slight reluctance within her.
The Princess especially did not like that this extravagant act seemed to appear like someone was buying her loyalty and love out of her.
Although the feeling did not go away but still, the practical side of Ning Xi overwhelmed any irrational thoughts in her mind.
'As long as i don't spread my legs open if and whenever Clark wants me to, everything is still okay. Perhaps I could repay him in other things other than my body.'
Ning Xi sought for loopholes to counterbalance the greed that she felt.
"This is nothing. If you arrive at the next realm in cultivation, a higher realm than what you have now, that would be more than enough to satisfy me already."
Clark said as he looked fondly at the first members of his party. He was not delusional to think that he could brave to face an Elder God by himself alone.
'As they say two heads are better than one. But... what if i can gather millions, if not trillions, of geniuses on my side. Hehehe.
I don't believe that i can't find someone smart enough to help me conquer this present tribulation that i'm facing. Someday I will find a way.' Clark mused in length.
"You may go now. I'll follow you in a moment." Our bored gamer said to the three. After another short exchange of thanks, Wan Fei, Ning Xi and Old Peng finally left.
"Now all i have to do is wait." Clark closed his eyes and tried to think of only happy days ahead. Alas, this facade of peace was only a short lived dream for our boy protagonist.

"BREAK!" A vast black hole was birthed from out of nowhere. Within moments, a 10 foot goddess could be seen walking out from its empty pits.
"I can smell evil in this world."
