Peach Blossom Dual Cultivation - Chapter 54: Master of Seduction

“You’re both welcome to sleep here, but no more jealousy or fighting between you,” Zhou Lang asserted, exuding the air of a true man as he addressed Ivannova and Zhao Xiaorou.

Neither Zhao Xiaorou nor Ivannova spoke, which Zhou Lang took as their silent agreement.

Climbing back into bed, Zhou Lang lay between them, embracing both on either side as he fell asleep.

To avoid provoking the two women, Zhou Lang refrained from making any further moves, worried that any action could set them off and lead to a fight.

This self-restraint made the night torturous for him. A certain part of him stood tall all night long, not softening until dawn.

The next morning, noticing that Zhao Xiaorou and Ivannova were still asleep, Zhou Lang quickly slipped out of bed, dressed, and headed to the bathroom to freshen up. The previous night had been quite the ordeal for him: two nearly naked, beautiful women wrapped around him had kept him wide awake. Fortunately, as a cultivator, sleepless nights didn’t affect him much, and he still felt full of energy.

After washing up, Zhou Lang went to the living room to practice martial arts. While cultivation was important, martial skills were equally critical. According to the Dual Cultivation Manual, mastery of martial arts could allow one to fight opponents of higher cultivation levels. For instance, as a Qi Refining cultivator, Zhou Lang could defeat someone in the Foundation Establishment stage. He believed that in addition to improving his cultivation, he should also focus on honing his martial skills.

Meanwhile, back in the bedroom, both women, still half-asleep, simultaneously turned over and hugged one another.

Neither of them realized Zhou Lang had already gotten out of bed. They each assumed they were still holding onto him, oblivious to the fact that they were embracing their rival.

Ring, ring, ring!

At 7 a.m., Zhao Xiaorou’s alarm clock went off right on time.

On any other day, she would have gotten up before the alarm even rang, but last night had been an exception. She hadn’t fallen asleep until late, so it took her nearly a full minute to wake up after the alarm started ringing.

“What are you doing hugging me? I’m not into women!”

Zhao Xiaorou snapped, furious as she woke up and found Ivannova’s arms around her waist.

“You were the one with your arms around my neck! If I were going to hug someone, it would be Brother Lang, not you,” Ivannova retorted, immediately pushing Zhao Xiaorou away.

The two women quickly got out of bed, glaring at each other like two roosters ready for a fight.

Zhou Lang, who had been listening to the commotion from the living room, hurried back to the bedroom.

“You two are already at it this early in the morning?”

“No, I was just waking her up,” Zhao Xiaorou replied with a smile.

“Brother Lang, Xiaorou and I are sisters, after all. We won’t fight anymore,” Ivannova added.

“Women are born actresses—they can play any role perfectly,” Zhou Lang thought to himself. He knew both women were putting on a show for his sake, but he didn’t call them out on it. Instead, he said, “Go wash up, and let’s head out for breakfast.”

“Brother Lang, why don’t I cook for you? My noodles are delicious,” Ivannova suggested.

“Let’s just go out for breakfast,” Zhou Lang replied with a slight smile. He understood what Ivannova was trying to do, but Zhao Xiaorou was the owner of the house. Letting Ivannova show off her cooking skills here wasn’t the best idea. For now, he couldn’t afford to play favorites between the two women, as it would only deepen the rift between them.

After freshening up, the three of them headed out for breakfast. Ivannova wore a tank top and shorts, looking sexy and bold, while Zhao Xiaorou opted for a professional outfit, giving off a pure and capable vibe. Between the two, it was hard to say who was the more beautiful.

Although the two women appeared to be getting along, they were still competing with each other. As they walked, each clung to one of Zhou Lang’s arms.

Both Ivannova and Zhao Xiaorou were stunningly beautiful. Any man would be lucky to date just one of them, let alone both. With Zhou Lang walking between them, holding both women close, they turned heads wherever they went. Zhou Lang didn’t look like a wealthy man, leaving many people wondering how he had managed to win over two such gorgeous women at the same time.

“Ahem… Maybe we should walk separately. Look at the way all the men are staring at us. They look like they want to kill me!”

Zhou Lang said, feeling both proud and slightly uncomfortable with all the attention they were drawing.

“Brother Lang, you’re so strong. Are you really afraid of a little attention?” Zhao Xiaorou teased with a giggle.

“Exactly,” Ivannova chimed in, siding with Zhao Xiaorou on this issue. Both women enjoyed walking arm-in-arm with Zhou Lang.

“You’re both absolute beauties. Having even one of you would be a blessing from a past life. But me, having both of you? Every single bachelor in Feiyun City would go mad. No matter how strong I am, I’d still be afraid of a mob of single men throwing bricks at me!”

Zhou Lang laughed.

“Brother Lang, you’re so funny,” Ivannova giggled, her smile lighting up her face.

“To avoid you getting hit with bricks, we’ll stay a little farther from you for now,” Zhao Xiaorou laughed as well.

Reluctantly, the two women let go of Zhou Lang’s arms and walked beside him instead. Despite the distance, their affectionate glances at Zhou Lang made it clear to everyone they were his women.

The three of them chose a noodle shop that looked clean and ordered beef noodles.

Even while eating, Ivannova and Zhao Xiaorou couldn’t seem to stop doting on Zhou Lang, their affection drawing envious stares from other customers in the shop.

After breakfast, Zhao Xiaorou headed to work, and Ivannova received a call from her senior brother, summoning her back to the gym.

“Zhao Xiaorou and Ivannova together are already causing so much trouble. If I eventually win over Li Mengxue too and then add Xiaoxi to the mix, won’t the world be thrown into chaos?”

Zhou Lang sighed to himself as he watched the two women leave.

“Brother, you’re still sighing? If I were in your shoes, I’d be dying of happiness. You, my friend, are the ultimate master of seduction—no one even comes close,” the noodle shop owner commented as he passed by Zhou Lang, having overheard his sigh.

The man, who was in his thirties and had a bit of money, hadn’t been able to find the right woman. He had seen Zhou Lang with the two stunning women earlier, and their obvious affection for him filled the shop owner with envy.

“Haha…”

Zhou Lang let out an awkward laugh and headed to the restroom.

“Brother Lang.”

As Zhou Lang finished using the restroom and started washing his hands, a soft voice called out. He looked up at the mirror and saw a tall, beautiful woman dressed in casual clothes standing behind him.

It was none other than Xiaoxi, the spirit of the ancestral copper coin. No one else could have appeared so quietly behind him.

“Xiaoxi, cough, cough… You scared me! What are you doing in the men’s restroom?”

Zhou Lang asked quickly.

“There’s only you in here, so it shouldn’t be a problem,” Xiaoxi replied, puzzled.

“There’s a difference between men and women. You should only go into the women’s restroom. Remember that for next time,” Zhou Lang said, glancing outside to make sure no one was around.

“Let’s get out of here.”
