“Sigh, I know what you are thinking, but I’m married till the third-year contract is finished, and I only have my wife to tend to. We need to focus on you right now. Your powers are fluctuating, and we need to calm it down.” Blake said, holding her hand and feeling her powers throughout her body. “Follow me outside.”Blake then guided her to the double glass doors, opened them, and emerged into the backyard. A wooden privacy fence surrounded the area, and a large oak tree was in the corner of the lot. He made his way to the tree, felt up the bark, and released some of his spirit Qi into the tree. The tree was a hundred years old and was of good stature for cultivating under. It actually was a solid base that he was looking for Sylvia’s training.“Sit under the tree and close your eyes.” Said Blake turning to Sylvia with a smile.Sylvia did as was instructed, and Blake followed. He placed his hand on her chest, and Sylvia couldn’t help but blush from his actions.Blake entered Sylvia’s
Blake went into the small world and made his way to the oak tree, where he met with Gerald Elon initially. He was met with a small house next to the tree, and Gerald sat next to the door smoking on a pipe. When he spotted Blake, he waved him over.“Elder, when did all of this happen? I have only been away for a day.”“What you know. Time is irrelevant here. For you a day for me a year, I thought you had forgotten me. What do you think? Not too shabby if I may say so myself.”“Nice, I’ve been getting impressed lately, but could you please not smoke? What about lung cancer?” Blake commented, taking a seat next to Gerald.“Hehe, what you know, this is spirit vaper, not tobacco. Where could I get it anyway? It’s not like I’m back on earth.” Gerald said, rolling his eyes. “Why don’t you try it? It’ll help with your cultivation.”Suddenly there was a pipe in Blake’s hand, and he went to puff on it. The surge of spirit Qi entered his body.“Cultivate under the tree of life for now. You bypas
A black film was all over his body when Blake finished his cultivation. It was the impurities that were secreted out when his core became solid. He went to Gerald, who was still smoking his pipe, not saying a word until he got close.“You stink, boy. There is a shower in the back of the house outside. It’s cold but refreshing.”Blake had no other choice but made his way to the back of the house, and sure enough, there was a shower waiting for him. After yelling from the cold, his body got used to it, and he commenced showering after feeling refreshed. Changing into a long robe laid out, he went back to the front of the house and sat by Gerald.“What do you know of this world?” Gerald Asked Blake when he took a rather significant drag from his pipe.“Not too much. I was in the Elon estate, my room, sitting in the House Leader’s Chair, and I was transported here by the sea’s edge. I then walked quite a distance till I found the tree and you. Then the Elon ancestors arrived. Other than t
“Where are we going to have a meal, Blake?” Asked Betty, looking at Blake as he drove.“What? You don’t like surprises?”“Oh, I love surprises!” Carol exclaimed with a significant smile from the back passenger seat.“Then sit and enjoy the ride.”Later Blake and the two ladies arrived at The Captain’s Peer restaurant. It was the most famous seafood restaurant in the state. The two women were shocked when they arrived.“Sir, we were to invite you. We can’t afford this place, and why not somewhere more affordable.” Betty said, looking quite scared that they couldn’t afford this meal.“Nonsense, I will not have you two look down upon yourselves. Did you two forget your bonus? Why don’t you look into your accounts.”Both Betty and Carol quickly looked into their bank accounts and were shocked. There were a hundred thousand in their separate accounts. This amount was more than they could make in a year of work; how could he give out a bonus for this much?“Sir, this is too much. How can we
“I’m so sorry, sir. Here let me get that for you.” Carol leaned over to wipe Blake’s face, exposing her cleavage in her Asian dress, which they had to wear for their uniforms in the Asian-themed hotel.“It’s quite all right, hehe. I got it under control,” Blake said, wiping his face with his napkin.“You startled me. Did I hear you correctly, sir? You want me to be in charge of the limo service in the hotel?” Asked Carol, still in a daze. She was only a clerk at the front desk and was just hired, and now she would be in charge of an important department for the hotel.“What? You don’t think you can handle it?” Asked Blake, who was smiling.“Oh, no, thank you, sir. I’ll do my utmost to see it through. Thank you for your trust in me.” Said Carol, still shaken.“Don’t overthink. I like your attitude towards the customers, and you will be the perfect person to handle the customers who want a vehicle to do their business or recreation around the city.” Blake continued with their conversati
“Tabitha, are you awake?” Claire asked when she rolled over but found her side empty.‘Now, where has she gone? It’s late, and she was here when we went to bed.’ Clair thought as she got out of bed and opened the door, looked down the hall, and didn’t see any light under the bathroom door. She made her way towards the kitchen only to bump into Tabitha coming out of the door with a glass of water spilling a little on herself.“Ahh!” They both yelled at the same time.“You scared me, sister; why are you out of bed?” Tabitha asked, placing her hand over her heart.“I was worried when you weren’t in bed just now. So, I got up to make sure you were okay.” Replied Claire as they made their way back into the hall.“I was thirsty and wanted to get a glass of water when I awoke. Now I’ll have to go to the bathroom and change my shirt because it’s all wet.” Tabitha said, looking down at her wet shirt. It wasn’t much from the water spill but from outside when the dew fell upon her. If it weren’t
“Then we will see you in the morning.” Replied Carol and Betty together.Blake left the apartment, and the two ladies entered the building. Their apartment was on the second floor, and the two quickly took off their shoes and sat on the couch in the living room.“What do you think of our new boss?” Asked Betty towards her younger sister.“I want to bear his children,” Carol said with her eyes closed, leaning on the couch, thinking it would be wonderful to be his wife.“Me too, too bad he already has a wife,” Betty said, also closing her eyes, thinking of how wonderful it would be to have Blake as her own.Blake didn’t know what the two sisters were thinking. If he had, the night would not have been as peaceful for him when he arrived at his room and got ready for bed. He had already condensed his core and was full of energy but still mentally exhausted from the ordeal. All he wanted was a shower and get into bed to sleep the night away.Blake awoke early, headed to Sylvia’s home to pi
“Mother, couldn’t you be nicer to Blake? He does all he can for us, and you still need to scold him and keep reminding him of another man you favor.” Said Tabitha placing her fork down when Blake left the room.“Nicer? If it wasn’t for him, would we be here? I would still be at the estate, and Claire would be treated as their princess in the Anderson family. All would be fine if it weren’t for his and father’s insistence on this marriage and this present nonsense a gift, humph.”“All he’s saying is that we should not worry about the past and future but focus on the present. I kind of like it.” Claire puts her fork down to the astonished-looking women left at the table. “What, can’t I like something even if Blake said it?”“Sister, is this your way of giving him a chance like you said last night?” Asked Tabitha, collecting the plates to bring to Blake in the kitchen.“What chance? What are you two talking about?” Julie asked with suspicion on her face.“I told Tabitha if Blake can brin
