Chapter 197: V3C73: Curious Surprise

“I am so sorry! I hadn’t… I had no idea that such a thing could possibly occur! I wasn’t trying to trick you!” Shun Liu Min exclaimed loudly, prostrating herself before Wei Yi with as much sincerity as any human could possibly display.

At the moment, her previously immaculate maid dress was torn and stained with various substances, her neat blonde hair had become quite messy over the previous night. The frilly headband that she had worn was lost somewhere in the sand, and the thin layer of makeup that she had worn the day before was absent save for the small amount of eyeliner that had been smudged by tears.

Everything about her actions, her memories and her thoughts appeared to be entirely truthful, and even if they hadn’t been, Wei Yi would not have blamed her.

“Don’t worry, I checked the technique myself. That I hadn’t realised that such a thing could occur was my own fault… and besides, this would be a very strange thing to implement in order to harm me. I can understand how this might occur as a natural result of the technique that you had modified,” she said, sighing, “I mean, if you or Ping Gangze wanted to hurt me, you could have shredded my meridians, made me lose my mind – or tried to, rather – or even caused me to instil the idea that he was my master for my entire life, since it is considerably easier for someone to influence their own mind than that of another.”

“Still, I am so sorry! That… I had worked on it, and it even outright mentioned it in the name, but I hadn’t actually considered it…” the maid had raised her head for a moment to look into her eyes, but quickly lowered her gaze with a blush returning to her cheeks, “I should have known!”

“Again, that’s not the case. You had no chance to experiment with it, and it may even be influenced by my own physique and state… Look, can you just go outside and pick up a few of the dry branches you saw there? Depending on how far away we are from our destination, we may need to rest elsewhere, and not all sandy areas will have a convenient spot or rock. You still have some of that drug remaining within you, so it should be dealt with regularly.”

Shun Liu Min nodded, getting up and immediately turning to face the exit to their small cave, “I’ll come back once I’ve gathered everything.”

The former maid slightly shifted what little remained of her dress to hide herself a little more, then left the cave and headed into the area above it, where several trees had dried out and dropped a number of branches, which they could use to fashion a surface for themselves to sleep on. Sand was not the most comfortable surface to rest on in the nude, after all.

Meanwhile, Wei Yi had followed the maid with her gaze, then looked down on the subject and cause of the discussion that they’ve just had.

It parted her robes and stood up tall, forcibly drawing her attention to it. The thing in question had appeared during their sleep and brought some attention to itself by waking the maid due to them facing one another.

‘I can’t exactly ignore this, can I?’

Although she had been rather vague with Shun Liu Min, she suspected that the reason that this new feature on her body had been able to appear was due to a few reasons. One would be connected with the fact that her body had become rather static after obtaining her physique cultivation, which should have made it so that she couldn’t possibly gain anything as major as what she now possessed, but she suspected that the excess quantity of yang that had been present within her for quite some time had made an impact upon her.

Without a technique, the excess yang influence upon her would have done little, but now that she had gained the Yin Soul Yang Root technique and practised it, the excess yang was focused in the one place where it would be most at home, so to speak. After all, there was no better place for it to gather than between her legs.

The other was specifically related to the technique itself, which, as she was able to confirm now, did cause the growth of something unexpected. She suspected that the sudden elevation of the technique’s cultivation and the warm tingle that she had felt in her crotch had signalled the growth that she now experienced, and that it had been able to bypass the static state of her physique by simply progressing her body in a natural manner.

‘It’s finally going down… Judging by all examples of this-’ she interrupted her own thought and sighed, ‘I can’t keep doing this. I can easily refer to my boobs as such, so I should really call this what it is – a dick. I have gained a dick, and, somehow, it is rather large. Hm…’

She had awoken with it in the morning, experiencing the phenomenon that was apparently called morning wood, and thus got to see it at its full size, getting a perfect opportunity to compare it to everything that she had seen during her many stays in the brothels of Beast’s Rest, where she would passively observe the other rooms with her spiritual perception.

As such, she knew that at its full, it was not the largest to exist in the world, but it would be at the perfect size for the majority of her partners. When it was in the flaccid state, however, it shrunk quite immensely, meaning that she could hide it in her underwear so long as she acquired a special set of underwear to place it into, save for the other aspect of a male’s root of yang that she now also possessed.

Just as with her erect penis, which grew a little strangely near the spot where the top of her lower lips had been and seemed to replace that cluster of nerve endings that could previously be found there, growing over the urethra, the two orbs beneath it were not on the small side either.

It was them that would bother her the most, especially due to the obvious weakness that they would present to any foes that were aware of their presence. She had seen just how sensitive they were on men, and from a few explorative touches, she could confirm that they did appear to be similar in that way. They were also distracting to her overall sense of balance, which she had gotten used to after all of the years of stagnancy. The addition of the complete root of yang, which was notably heftier than she would have hoped, would doubtlessly require quite a lot of work to get used to it.

As for the appearance, it was… strange, in a word. The skin on it was darker, which wasn’t uncommon so far as she was aware, but despite the size and prominent veins in its erect state, it was almost prominently feminine, meaning that if someone was to witness it without seeing the rest of her body, they would implicitly know that it belonged on the body of a woman, even if they wouldn’t be certain about it.

The balls were large, round, and fortunately didn’t hang too low, so they weren’t as bad as they could have been, at the very least. The entire thing radiated warmth whenever any quantity of blood went to it, and that was yet another issue.

Not the warmth, which she could innately possess with her physique in any part of her body, but rather the fact that she appeared to have gained the same eagerness for action as some men that would usually possess such an appendage. Her own lust and libido had not changed much, at least not so far as she was able to tell, but the moment that she experienced or saw something that even slightly tickled her lustful mind, she could feel blood rush to her crotch. She did have the ability to cease that and prevent unnecessary displays, but it was rather annoying to manage.

With how much she had looked at the bodies of both men and women, she was able to understand the exact changes to the inside of her body with ease, and noticed that while most of her female parts remained as they were – the clitoris not included, of course – the male differed quite significantly from what men typically possessed.

All that she could be even vaguely sure about was that the refractory period that made certain types of pills a rather lucrative business shouldn’t be necessary to her.

It was hard to compare with a dragon’s genitalia, given that she had not yet met a single person that either possessed their bloodline or was a full-blooded dragon, so she wasn’t sure whether this was a commonality among the hermaphrodites of the Planar Continents. It could be that the sheer might and regenerative capability of her body permitted her to overcome such human trivialities the instant that the penis manifested itself, not that this would be to her advantage in the slightest while she was still attempting to maintain some level of decency.

The feminine appearance of her new part made it look far less unappealing than she would have assumed it to be, and judging by Shun Liu Min’s gaze upon it and her reactions, it seemed that she also had the same opinion about it. This, combined with the fact that her body would just regenerate something like this the very moment that she attempted to do anything to it, dissuaded her from attempting to remove it and instead made her rather curious what it would be like to make use of it.

In response, blood quickly rushed down there, proving that her ownership of the Bright Glimmering Heart physique was incredibly beneficial and a good choice. The small, flaccid rod quickly grew, the skin atop it receding as it expanded all the way to a great pillar, radiating heat and visibly releasing steam.

‘Fuck… This feels strange…’ she thought, feeling as if she had somehow returned to her state all those years ago, when she had never experienced the touch of another woman, for this sensation was new and entirely unique to her. It was pleasant, there was no doubt about that, and she knew that the moment her light and delicate hand touched the great length, it would be even more so.

She pondered whether it was a good idea to do this now, but she couldn’t arrive at an answer before she heard the returning footsteps of Shun Liu Min.

As they had already seen one another fully naked, and since the former maid had seen it in quite a lot of detail when she had woken up, Wei Yi did not bother to hide her towering length, simply pulling her hand back from it and trying to get it to calm down on its own.

‘If there is one thing that I learn from this, it is that I can perfectly understand why men can be rather more openly eager for sex than women – and why they tend to ogle them so often. This thing can easily be described as not only having a mind of its own, but also being capable of controlling the person that it belongs to, and this seem to be even more true when it is both new and amplified by my physique and constant physical refinement,’ she tried to distract herself a little, although she could tell quickly that it wouldn’t bring her mind far from the original topic.

Shun Liu Min entered the underground chamber, saw her sitting at the end of it, and quickly diverted her attention to the side. With the bunch of dry branches in her hands, she walked up to wall and put them down, haphazardly for now.

“Is it still not going down?”

“It had, but I was a bit careless and it’s decided to rise again. I’m guessing that, for the moment, I will be about as eager to go as someone with no experience at all,” Wei Yi shared her earlier thoughts, “I’ll probably deal with it later, then prevent unnecessary blood flow to that part of my lower regions so that it doesn’t even become an issue again.”

The former maid nodded as she stepped away from the bunch of branches. She paused for a moment, absentmindedly licking her lips, before she decided to step up to Wei Yi.

“Since I had… accidentally… caused this, I… I can do something about it…”

“Remember that I don’t blame you, nor do I believe that you did this intentionally. If this is something that you feel obligated to do as a result of your guilt, then you don’t have to. On the other hand, if this is something that you’re interested in, I won’t object.”

“I-Interested in… Wei Yi, you know my situation…”

“Very aware. However, while I may be playing dumb in certain matters, that doesn’t mean that I can’t see just how often you were looking at it. If you’re concerned that this is a male appendage, then I can assure you that it, in fact, isn’t. Not quite,” Wei Yi alluded to what she had noticed earlier, but was able to understand the mood of the conversation well enough and didn’t mention it directly, “Furthermore, so long as you don’t develop a sudden interest in men as a whole, then nothing about your mental state has changed.”

“Why do you sound like you have a lot of experience in this?”

“That’s because I do. You’d be surprised how much someone can pay attention to their own mind when under the threat of permanent mental changes. By the way, have you never been affected by the drug before now?”

“Only a few times, and only long ago…” she said as she looked more openly at the tall rod between Wei Yi’s legs, which twitched in response, “It’s, uh… bigger than-”

“Don’t need to hear it. In fact, I would rather not even think about that. If you are going to do something, I recommend that you do it now. Otherwise, we can both calm down and consider leaving this place,” Wei Yi stopped her from sharing information that she either already knew or had no interest whatsoever in hearing, “So long as you do intend to do something, please don’t leave me waiting.”

Although she didn’t clearly show it on her face before this, it was also quite difficult for her to sit there with a constant temptation before her and do nothing.

Whether from her perspective, or that of another, the great pillar at her crotch drew quite a lot of attention, and was rather imposing, so even her sturdy mind struggled with outright ignoring it when it had yet to ever be placated… and that made her think of some unruly beast, which was also not an inaccurate comparison. Such a comparison was especially apt when the previous problem of a will of its own, the large size, and a few of the attention-grabbing elements were considered.

After a little more thought, Shun Liu Min finally decided what she would do.

She came up to Wei Yi and slowly kneeled in front of her, her face becoming as red as it had been the night before, as if that drug had filled her system. In her anxiety, she inhaled deeply with her nose, prompting her to nearly turn away.

“The smell…”

“Ah Min, are you going to just talk? It is very sensitive, you know, and your breath keeps hitting it…” Wei Yi gently dug her fingers into the former maid’s hair, getting a tight grip on her head, “As for the smell, you can be sure that you will become intimately familiar with it, seeing as it’s been able to gain it overnight… Now, get to it!”

She forced the former maid closer to it with her firm grip, an evil smirk formed by her lips.

It was only later that she realised that gaining something like this may have intensified her dominant tendencies even further, and that it might not be a good idea to let it get too much out of control.

However, for now, she got to enjoy the skills that Shun Liu Min had gained over her ten years of forced service combined with an obvious passion that she was more than eager to tease her about at some later point. Contrary to what she had heard about a man’s ability to endure stimulation during their first time, it appeared that she had far greater endurance that seemed to give her alternate internal organs the opportunity to generate as much fluids as they could hold.

When she did experience her very first male orgasm…

 

“Hah… ah… so much…” the former maid gasped even after their bodies had separated, her hand on the front of her neck as she struggled to catch her breath, “And so hot…”

Her whole face was flushed and much of it was rather messy as a result of their earlier activity, but she had a silly smirk on that she didn’t appear to be able to subdue no matter how hard she tried to do so.

Wei Yi, meanwhile, was mostly unaffected, both due to how little she actually needed to do – especially in relation to the strength and stamina that she possessed – and her ability to cleanse her own body at any time she liked. With that ever useful function of the Yin-Yang Ascendant physique, all that she needed to do before she could look entirely presentable was cleanse all of the saliva from her dick and then put it back into her panties, which were, just barely, capable of holding it and her balls.

“Sorry, I might have gone slightly overboard. Are you alright?”

“Yeah… I… actually, I…” she coughed, finally managing to both regain her breath and subdue the smile, “I don’t dislike it.”

“Oh, really? I wouldn’t have thought that this was the kind of treatment you’d like.”

“I didn’t-” Shun Liu Min only began to deny it when she realised that nothing about her actions in the previous few minutes suggested anything but that she didn’t enjoy it, “Well, I’m more of a switch, actually. It’s just that I need to be with someone that I don’t absolutely hate, and you fit that description.”

“Aw, what a nice thing to say. Come here,” Wei Yi easily lifted the former maid off the floor and planted a quick kiss on her lips, allowing her to stand on her own afterwards while frowning slightly, “Well, that is… seems I might need to get used to it myself.”

“Is it that strong still? I thought I was just imagining it still…”

“It got into your head, did it… Literally and mentally, I suppose,” she muttered, “By the time we get to any settlement or district, if you still have that drug remaining within your body, we will absolutely need to avoid oral, otherwise a lot of questions will be raised in the best case scenario, and we won’t be permitted inside in the worst.”

“We’ll need to get it out of our system before then,” Shun Liu Min agreed, “After everything at Ping Gangze’s residence, all of this is a very welcome change.”

“It very much is, although it will take some time to get used to it all, for you and me both. So that there is as little chance of returning there as possible, we should be moving on as soon and as quickly as possible, so let’s get back onto what we had been discussing when we first got here.”

“Uh… I’ll be honest, one thing takes precedence over the rest in my memory, and that isn’t it…”

“The things that you’ve brought with you from Ping Gangze’s estate, the cultivation resources and dick excluded. I’ve heard something about healing pills and other techniques, and if all of them are secretly so miraculous, I will be both incredibly concerned – since I don’t think I have many more organs that can possibly grow on my body – and significantly more powerful after I learn all of them.”

“Ah, that, yes,” the former maid looked around and found the bag that had been thrown away quite some time ago when they had been placed into the mood the previous night, retrieving a few manuals from it, “These are not all of a high quality, but some might prove useful.”

She passed them to Wei Yi, then removed a rag from her clothing and wiped her face with it, since the rag itself wouldn’t be of much use to her, occasionally glancing in the Ascendant’s direction while Wei Yi read through the technique manuals. Some were truly not that great, like the Magma Spines that she had seen one of the Yi family use during the expedition to the Kong District, but some were far more interesting.

‘This Black Sun Blade, for example, is clearly either based on, or had been used as a foundation for the energy of the Endless Dark organisation, as it has a similar ability to consume sunlight. It also uses it to attack foes, which is even more sophisticated, but it could have been removed as part of the cultivation technique,’ she thought, committing that technique to memory, ‘God Burial Sea, while it does sound far more impressive, is mostly useful only for weaker foes. Anyone that is weaker than the cultivator will supposedly be pulled into the ground and kept there for as long as the technique lasts, giving me the ability to kill them or trap them with it.’

The first technique was a sword technique, so she quickly understood it to the same stage as her Sword Dao, and the second appeared to fit the nature of the Dao of Law quite well, so she similarly gained Minor Achievement in it.

Then, she looked through the Destruction Brand, and found that it was rather similar to something in her memories, prompting her to look through the countless tomes within the Ascendant’s Library before she realised what it was – the Broken Sky Brand. Based on what she had seen of that manual, and of the technique in use, this Destruction Brand had really similar principles behind it, except for the fact that it was a fire-type technique and also appeared steeped in the Dao of Law.

It was a pleasant surprise, to be sure, even if it did remind her of some slightly more unfortunate matters. The ability that it possessed to weaken foes against other fire-type methods was bound to work well alongside other techniques with similar abilities, and the ability that it possessed to ‘stick’ to foes regardless of the speed of their movement was also highly useful.

Furthermore, there was a chance of her being able to recreate, or at the very least imitate, the Broken Sky Brand, potentially permitting her to reclaim the technique and eventually return it to the grave of the boy that had been the one to discover it, if he had even been permitted one. Seeing as her techniques tended to become rather insane the further they progressed and the more freedom she had to mess around with them, Wei Yi suspected that the only similarities that would be shared between her Broken Sky Brand and the real thing would be the basic principle and name.

“A bunch of decent techniques. The only one that I am not fond of is the Magma Spines, but the rest should be highly effective,” she said to Shun Liu Min, who, by this point, had cleaned her face of all the mess and makeup alike, “Also, I can get you some clothes or rags for cleaning, depending on what you want.”

“Well, I’ll use the rest of this outfit while I have it, since it just brings back bad memories. Did you bring along a shrinking bag that we hadn’t found on you?” the former maid asked, throwing away the rag.

“No, I have a spatial treasure. At the moment, it isn’t very large, but it does have a few items that may be useful. Alternatively, I can also teach you a technique that might be able to cleanse your body, although I’ve not tried it before, and it might have side effects… just kidding.”

Judging by the cautious step back that she had taken, Shun Liu Min had gotten quite a different impression, but one that she didn’t voice, instead saying, “Again, that was accidental… I can try learning it, although I’ve never been very good with actually cultivating techniques. Instead, modifying and altering them has always worked out better, not that I’ve been able to practise either one all that much under Ping Gangze’s gaze.”

“You do know that the more you say, the deeper the grave you’re digging for yourself is. If I learn that you also completed the modification to the Yin Soul Yang Root with your eyes closed and your mind focused on something irrelevant, like cake, then I may get annoyed after all,” Wei Yi pointed out, unsubtly pointing down, “Before that happens, let’s just pretend that you didn’t say that and move on, shall we? So long as you truly want to cultivate any particular technique, I should be able to help you out with that.”

“In that case, I will consider it… Spatial treasure?”

“Took you a while, didn’t it… Yes, that’s right. You’re not going to sell my information to anyone, are you? Or is there something that you’d miss too much?”

“P-Please stop…” Shun Liu Min muttered, but she appeared incapable of denying the implication, “I guess I shouldn’t be that surprised, seeing as you are likely to be well connected with the strength that you possess. Then, where are we heading? Is there a base of operations for a faction that you belong to?”

“You could say that, if you want, but we’re heading towards the next district, first.”

“Hence the need to not be chased out. I understand,” the former maid said, “I won’t ask more questions that I need to. Do you have something to drink to… you know…”

“Nothing for the moment, especially nothing that you’d like to drink. I do have a method of retrieving something, but I will not use it here, nor now. Perhaps once we can both be certain that we’re not acting in any malicious manner towards one another, I will show you exactly what my faction and situation is, but for now, I am sure we will be able to find some source of water for you to drink.”

“… Did you know that you can look rather terrifying at times, even when you’re just saying mundane things?”

“I said nothing mundane, especially not in my first sentence,” Wei Yi smiled, but did not elaborate, “Anyway, I think that it is time for me to take one of the cultivation pills and reinforce those wooden bits, for you to pick them up and take them with you, and for us to go. Anything you want to do first?”

“No, nothing. Why not take the pills now, by the way?”

“You see, it will likely do a lot for my cultivation – obviously – and will require some time to be accommodated by the body. I also have no idea whether any of these contain the same drug that had threatened both of us, so it would be best to be in a good place to fuck. If we try to handle all of the pills in one go, then we will be here for a long time, which will give that man a higher chance to find us,” she explained to her, taking out one of the small scentless pills, “In addition, the effectiveness of dual cultivation should be increased immensely now that the technique’s changes have completed, so you could reach the third realm soon. Excited?”

Her gulp told them both everything that they needed to know.
