After a full day of non-stop travel, Andrew and his group had crossed more than half of Holtrien and finally entered the mountain range where the Harmony Sect was located. The moment they truly stepped into its territory, Valerie gasped. "This place is absolutely stunning!"Eric said coldly, "Yeah, the scenery here is beautiful. But with this many beautiful women just waiting for us, is this a welcome… or are they resting comfortably while waiting for us to walk into a trap?""Harmony Sect welcomes the Lloyd family's Dragon Prince and his honored guests!" Hundreds of Harmony Sect disciples, every single one of them a woman, spoke in perfect unison. Led by a breathtakingly stunning woman at the front, they bowed gracefully toward Andrew and his group. The whole thing caught everyone off guard, including Andrew himself. They had all braced for a confrontation, a fight, or at the very least a tense standoff. Instead, they were met with a reception that was not just polite but down

Dorothy did not get angry and simply smiled. "May I ask, who are these three to Mr. Lloyd?"Before Andrew could answer, Nyx replied coldly, "We're his girlfriends and his future wives."Dorothy laughed brightly. "I didn't expect Mr. Lloyd to be such a romantic man. Three confidantes, all top-tier beauties. Even I feel a little jealous."Nyx let out a cold snort. Any goodwill the three women had felt toward Harmony Sect's beautiful scenery vanished in an instant. They only felt that Dorothy was shameless beyond belief.Yet, Dorothy showed no sign of embarrassment. She continued, "So, Mr. Andrew, my request isn't too much, is it? As long as you and Charlotte cultivate together for one night, Harmony Sect will join the war without hesitation." Andrew felt a strong resistance in his gut, but his voice stayed calm. "Madam Fontaine, may I ask why this is necessary? What exactly does Harmony Sect stand to gain from me cultivating with Elder Easterling?"Dorothy's eyes lit up. "Oh, the

As Andrew made his way toward the cottage, Nyx, Valerie, and Rowan all tensed up. At the same time, they felt a flicker of irritation too. They could not help wondering whether their husband was really that eager, since instead of fighting, the other side was practically offering him a beauty on a silver platter.Nyx snorted. "I'm going in with him."Dorothy stepped forward quickly. "That won't work, I'm afraid. If you go in there with him, it defeats the whole purpose."Andrew glanced back over his shoulder. "Nyx, relax. I know what I'm doing. I'm not going to do anything stupid." Nyx bit her lip. "If you run into any danger, just shout. I'll come in and get you right away."Andrew nodded, said nothing more, and pushed the door open. The door to the cottage closed automatically behind him.Everyone waited outside, each with their own thoughts.Valerie, Rowan, and Jerome were all worried that the Harmony Sect might be plotting something. Meanwhile, Dorothy and Giovanni wore m

Andrew's voice turned cold as he said, "So this is what Harmony Sect's so-called dual cultivation really is. You talk about pleasure and making men addicted, but in the end, you are targeting a man's very foundation. You should do less of this kind of thing. Goodbye."With that, he pretended to be angry and walked toward the door.Charlotte panicked and rushed after him, pleading, "Mr. Lloyd, please don't leave. I only spoke harshly because I was anxious. Maybe the Harmony Sect's techniques were created to steal a man's essence, and they are truly wicked. But I swear, until now, I have never done such a thing."She added, "I'm about to break through to the next level, and it just so happened that you came to Harmony Sect, so Madam Fontaine arranged this. At first, I didn't resist. But when I saw that you were kindhearted and had no lustful thoughts even after seeing my body, I-I began to like you. And if you're not willing, I'll do whatever you say. I won't do anything wrong by you.

Dorothy said calmly, "There is nothing unfair about this. Getting our hands on Andrew's essence alone already puts us ahead. More importantly, the situation was not in our favor. If Andrew had decided to act recklessly and force Harmony Sect into submission, we would have gained nothing and still ended up bowing to his power."Another alluring elder laughed softly and said, "Madam Fontaine is right. Overall, the Harmony Sect still benefited this time. The Eight Ancient Sects facing the enemy was unavoidable. Andrew came on strong, and in the current Holtrien, no one could stop him. Since we all had to yield anyway, showing loyalty early and getting benefits from him was the smarter move."Dorothy smiled. "Exactly. Charlotte seems to have gained a lot. Andrew's essence must be incredibly powerful. At the very least, it should help her break through to Martial God."Giovanni and the other elders were stunned. "One session and she jumps straight to martial god? Madam Fontaine, that s
