After telling Victoria exactly what had happened, Victoria did not respond immediately but frowned in deep thought. After a long pause, she slowly said, “Andrew, I heard people mention something like this back in my martial arts days.”
Andrew’s face lit up, “Victoria, tell me quickly… What’s the specific reason?”
Victoria smiled. “Don’t get too excited yet. First, just being intimately united with your lovers can achieve this effect. Andy, do you know what this means? It means you’ve discovered an absolute treasure.
“In martial arts, the higher you climb, the harder each step becomes. Yet now, you and your women can mutually nourish each other and push one another forward. That sort of thing must not be spoken of widely, or it will draw envy and prying eyes.”
Andrew nodded. “I understand, Victoria. Don’t worry, I’ll keep it in mind.”
She gave a soft hum, her cheeks faintly flushed. “You’re blessed, Andrew. At first, I thought you were just draining Lauren and the other girls. If that were the case, you would’ve been shameless. But now, I see that what you share is a balance between masculine and feminine energies, nourishing both sides.”
Victoria’s gaze sharpened as she recalled. “Long ago, there was a legendary figure who climbed to the peak of martial arts through dual cultivation. At first, the great sects at Mount Lourneau, Mistveil Peak, and the Swordhaven Keep thought he practiced something vile and corrupt, a demonic art.
“But in the end, everyone realized they were wrong. His path was closer to the ancient teachings of the Uncarved Path. This Path has always stood apart as one of the highest peaks of martial philosophy.
“Ordinary people practice martial arts by training muscles and bones, tempering their bodies, and improving their internal energy. However, the Uncarved Path reduces all techniques to one word: cultivation.
“Whether called cultivation, the Way, or even the immortal path, it focused on harmonizing instead of forcing. Without grinding their bodies down, they still became graceful, powerful enough to lift mountains, and unstoppable across the world. You, Lauren, Fran, and Aspen may have accidentally stumbled into such a profound state.”
Andrew leaned forward quickly. “Victoria, this master you’re talking about… Who was he, and where is he now?”
Victoria shook her head. “He’s known everywhere by the title the Eastern Wanderer. As for his real name, no one knows. I’ve never even seen him before. Everything I know is from stories. Butright now, he’s ranked third on Holtrien’s Titan List.”
Andrew felt a chill. Third on the Sky Titan List was a genuinely terrifying level. Though he never paid much attention to the martial world, he respected the Titan List. He admitted that even at his peak, he might never reach that third position.
After all, he had once seen the number one himself, Holtrien’s national instructor, and that man was absolute and unmatched. The distance between third and first was vast, yet to be in the top tree meant none of them were ordinary.
“The Eastern Wanderer!‘ Andrew silently repeated, memorizing the name.
Victoria nodded, “You’ll have plenty of opportunities to find somene like the Eastern Wanderer. When the time comes, just ask him for guidance, Now let’s talk business. Andrew, you’ve already ecome one of the three pillars of Gabo Creek.
“After the Phelan and Fischer families, the rest now bow to you. It time to claim your position as King of Gabo Creek.”
