Punishment for a Bad Girl

I pat myself, searching for the source of the noise. "Sorry. Sorry. Just my iPhone. Probably informs me that it has finished charging. You have no idea how hard it is to find a working charger around here."

Once I have found the handheld device, I switch it to silent and then pocket it, all while Xiao Hong and Long Yue stares at me in bewilderment. I would be too if I was them, considering the timing.

It is almost perfect timing. Almost.

Maybe the both of them are wondering what an iPhone is. It is not like they have seen a phone before, let alone a smart phone. Even so, I don't really feel like telling them anything that they do not need to know.

They will learn all about the wonders of technology in due time.

"I like to think it as insurance, Long Yue," I correct her on her assumption about the ingested pill. "Just in case you try to run off and cry to your mummy about me. If you behave like a good little girl, I might give you your daily oral supplements to stop your insides from liquifying. It also has other benefits, as you will find out."

Long Yue blinks. "My mother. Why would I…? Oral supplements?"

The liquifying part eventually sinks into her small brain, and she wants to cry again but not in front of me, especially with the knife still in my playful hands.

Long Yue might act like a big shot, but she is just a little girl. Not quite a crybaby but still all the same, nonetheless. She is also lacking in the head department. Hope she gives good head instead.

Only really one way to find out.

"Your sister there will tell you all about it if you asked nicely. She has taken a liking to the taste, and I am certain that you will too," I reply and decide it is a good time to have a check at those spying drones now. One of them should have located the First Elder of the Sword Maiden Sect.

If I am lucky, one of those drones might even know where the elusive Sect Leader is. Here is a question, why is all Sect Leader has to be elusive? I rather save time skipping all the mini bosses, middle bosses, and just jump straight to the final boss.

But I do like to face slap high and mighty people into submission. It is actually one of my pastimes with the best kind screwing them over and over again.

Long Yue looks at Xiao Hong for answers. While she cannot move her arms and legs, she can move her body and neck just fine, and that is me being merciful.

I will definitely fix her up later, as I cannot have one of my girls like that. But there is no need to hurry, especially when she isn't going anywhere fast.

The formation that I have erected prevents anyone from leaving the immediate area. It does allowed people to enter this area, however. I am not too worried about anyone from dropping by and peeping at me if that is their pastime quirk. I am more concern about them running off and telling people that they shouldn't have.

Ruing my future fun in the process.

Of course, as master and creator of the formation, only I can leave the area without activating it, and like every formation, there is a time limit. It should deactivate at the end of the day.

That should be more than enough time for me to do what I need to do.

In any case, I begin reviewing what the spying drones has seen, one by one. They show me what they have seen through a holographic display.

And thanks to my eyes, I only need a few seconds to review each of the video on fast play. It is not like I need to listen to all the recorded audio.

"It is actually…" Xiao Hong begins and then whispers to Long Yue, whose eyes widen at the knowledge.

Long Yue snaps at me immediately after. "You pervert! Lecherous pervert! How dare you make Second Sister drink your… your…!? Disgusting! She has to suck it of your…! How could you make her do that!?"

I look up from the camera drone in my hand and narrow my eyes at Long Yue. That instantly shuts her up, at least for the moment.

"I do not mind you calling me names, Long Yue, since I have to value you first to actually be offended," I speak up. "But do not run your mouth off about junior. If it dislikes you, you will only have yourself to blame, and trust me, you need it more than it wants you."

"What are you talking about?" Long Yue questions, and Xiao Hong finally decides to inform her about her current predicament. It has not shown itself yet, but it will in a decade or so. Less since she happens to comprehend more of the Sword Art Manual.

Comprehending more of the Sword Art Manual is not necessary a good thing, given the accumulation of Yin energy within their meridians and pathways. The more they use their swordplay, the faster they accumulated Yin energy.

I return my attention back to the camera drone, examining the holographic image it displays. Like the rest of the camera drones, it does not know where the Sect Leader is, but it does, however, knows the location of the First Elder.

That is good enough.

Once I finish reviewing all the camera drones, I put them all away since they are not needed anymore, at least not at the moment.

I then turn my attention to Long Yue, who flinches back. Xiao Hong has informed her of everything she needs to know, and it is only a matter of time she prostrates before me as she should.

In my eyes, everyone is my servants. Serve me and live.

"W-what… I'm not going to…" Long Yue murmurs. She is not quite sure of what to do, but she is aware of what has happened to the previous Elders of the Sevt. In fact, the reason that she has managed to gain the Elder status is because the previous elder has died prematurely.

"You will change your mind, just like they always do," I response flatly. "Now, hand over the item that you had just use. It should take me to the First Elder."

"Eh… how do you know that?" Long Yue asks.

"I could tell you, but why bother? Hand it over or I will start flaying you alive," I demand. It is obvious where she tries to flee to. She would have gone straight to the Sect Leader if she knew where the Sect Leader is, so the next person on the list should be the First Elder.

As for the item, I am sure that Long Yue still has it even though I have destroyed every visible item on her person. Okay, I am relatively sure. If I have destroyed on accident, she will need to confirm it.

"Long Yue," Xiao Hong speaks up. "I do not think master will treat you badly, so you should not make it difficult for yourself. You want to become a Sword Empress one day, don't you?"

Sword Empress. Or more correctly, Immortal Sword Empress, is a cultivator who has reached such an unimaginable level of swordplay. It is not actually the highest rank possible, given that there are realms beyond Immortal Realms.

I allow time for Long Yue to contemplate her decision. I also do not want to reveal anything to anyone unless there is a reason.

Long Yue eventually spits out a small yellow bead. She has kept the item in her mouth throughout the whole time, activating it whenever she needed to escape.

It is likely voice command since I notice that she does mumble to herself.

I pick up the bead and take a closer look. My eyes analyze it quickly, deciphering its construction. It is actually a recall beacon, and its original owner is not Long Yue. Once activated, it should take whoever holds it to the original owner.

Thus, the original owner must be the First Elder.

I do not need to know why Long Yue has it in her possession. It is more than likely that the First Elder has given it to her as a mean of escape.

"Quite interesting," I compliment as I look up at Long Yue and Xiao Hong. "Your First Sister must have a very good understanding of Spells. I will go and have a chat with her. In the meantime, try to obtain the Mortal Merit. Have a read of this before you do."

I toss Xiao Hong a manual. A fairly newly printed manual.

Sure, it is better for her if I had explained how to obtain Mortal merit in detail, but I have other things to do. Beauties to claim. People to screw. I cannot babysit my harem all the time. They have to be able to do things for themselves.

And considering that Xiao Hong is a Second Elder of the feared Sword Maiden Sect, she has been taking care of herself just fine.

I am not to worry about her. I am more worry about…

"What about me…?" Long Yue calls out when I am about to activate the beacon, allowing me to travel directly to the First Elder.

"You? Be a good girl and sit there. Think of this as your punishment, and when I get back, maybe I will let you persuade me in patching you up," I response before vanishing in a beam of light.

From my perspective, the entire surrounding has just changed, and I come face to face with another supreme beauty.
