The First Venerable of the Prosperous Age

"Ouch!!" A series of screams came from the bushes.

Then Sweetie leaped out of the lake, picked up her clothes, and quickly put them on.

Seeing that Wen Ying was hiding in the lake and dared not come out, she said, "Don't worry, they can't even see their own bodies anymore."

Wen Ying covered her body and carefully walked out to put on her clothes.

During this time, Sweetie was still smiling and watching her from the shore.

Seeing that Wen Ying was extremely embarrassed, Tian Gao picked up the white medicine bag on the shore and went to the bushes. Changing her previous smiling face from Wen Ying, she said coldly, "Come out, don't make me go in and invite you."

"No, no, no, Grandma, we're coming out right now!" Then two soldiers crawled out of the bushes.

Wen Ying exclaimed in surprise from behind, "Ah! We've actually offended the officials! What should we do?" Having been used to wandering around since childhood, she still feared the soldiers the most.

The two soldiers, who had just gone blind, hurriedly kowtowed, "We dare not, we dare not, you are the real official. You two ladies, oh no, you two... fairies descended from heaven, we will never dare to peep again, please spare our lives."

As the two soldiers kowtowed and spoke, smiles still unconsciously appeared on their faces, as if they were still savoring the breathtaking scenery they had just witnessed.

Sweetie noticed this detail, but she still asked calmly, "If you are officers and soldiers, why are you here instead of performing your duties?"

The two soldiers looked embarrassed and stammered, "Now that things have come to this... I'm not afraid of being laughed at by you two sisters, but we are actually... deserters... who came here by accident and then we accidentally saw you two sisters." After saying that, they lowered their heads in shame.

“Deserters? The Great Tang is peaceful and prosperous now, a time of good governance and people living in peace and contentment. How could there be deserters?” Wen Ying said somewhat angrily.

"My dear sisters, you may not know this, but we are from Chang'an, and we are here to escort the contestants from Chang'an who are coming to Luoyang to participate in the Kaiyuan Martial Arts Tournament."

"The assassins we've encountered along the way have already cost us a lot of manpower. And the contestants are all incredibly strong; they don't need us to protect them at all. If we stay there any longer, we'll just be throwing our lives away for nothing."

Sweet Cake pondered, "It seems that this year's Kaiyuan Martial Arts Tournament semi-finals will once again be Luoyang Shangyang Sect facing off against Xuanwu Sect from Chang'an."

Sweetie then asked, "And who will the winner face?"

"Oh, it's the Chunhu faction from Qiantang. The imperial court will send personal guards to escort the winner of this semi-final to Qiantang."

"So, the finals of this Kaiyuan Martial Arts Tournament will be held in Qiantang?" Sweet Cake said casually.

"Indeed, indeed, this is Qiantang."

“Isn’t that the place Brother Lu is so eager to go?” Wen Ying asked.

"Ah, is there anything else you want to ask, sister? We can answer all your questions, hehe..." the two soldiers said to Wen Ying with a fawning smile.

“That’s it. You’re all worthless now. You can prepare to die.” Before Wen Ying could speak, Tian Gao blurted out.

The two soldiers were terrified and immediately kowtowed, begging for mercy. "Heroine, heroine, please spare our lives! We were just too...too beautiful to be true, so we couldn't resist peeking for a tiny bit. Besides, you've already gouged out our eyes. Please, spare us!!"

Sweet Cake smiled slightly and looked at Wen Ying, saying, "Miss Wen, what do you intend to do with them?"

The two soldiers immediately kowtowed to Wen Ying and begged for mercy.

Wen Ying said solemnly, "Although I have compassion, I have been wandering for a long time. I know the importance of being wary of others. Moreover, this matter concerns Miss Sweet Cake's chastity and reputation, so I cannot make the decision based solely on my opinion. Therefore, I would like to ask Miss Sweet Cake to make the decision."

"Okay," Sweet Cake said with a smile.

The two soldiers immediately knelt down before Tian Gao, slapping themselves while pleading, "We're shameless for peeping at the two older sisters while they were bathing. We deserve to be beaten, we really deserve to be beaten."

Sweet Cake flicked the white medicine packet in her hand and coldly pressed, "You, really only spied on me?"

The two soldiers swallowed hard. "Of course..."

Sweet Cake snorted coldly, "You threw this medicine packet over here, didn't you? If I'm not mistaken, this is the Blissful Aphrodisiac Powder."

The two soldiers were shocked to hear this, and large beads of sweat began to trickle down their foreheads.

Sweet Cake continued, "This Blissful Aphrodisiac Powder, let alone eating it, even accidentally inhaling a tiny bit will cause you to be poisoned and consumed by lust. If you don't have intercourse with a member of the opposite sex, you will die from the poison. Am I right?"

The two soldiers gasped in shock, "This...this..."

Sweet Cake sneered, "So, you weren't just spying on us. You were lustful from the start and took action, planning to make us smell this aphrodisiac so you could do whatever you wanted with us."

The two soldiers knelt on the ground, trembling with fear, and remained noncommittal about what Tian Gao had said.

Sweet Cake added, "You've been hiding in those bushes for at least fifteen minutes, haven't you?"

The two soldiers said in trembling voices, "Miss... since you... discovered us long ago... why did you only take action now?"

"Because I didn't know your strength at that time, I couldn't act rashly for Miss Wen's absolute safety. Only by acting when you make your move can I have the greatest chance of success."

Sweet Cake then looked at Wen Ying and smiled, "So, I deliberately created an opening. I intentionally got distracted and cuddled with Miss Wen, just to lure you into making a move."

"Speaking of which, I must apologize to Miss Wen again for my flirtatious remarks just now."

Upon hearing this, Wen Ying couldn't help but recall the scene in the lake earlier, and her tender face flushed again. She turned her head away and said awkwardly, "Since it was for... then naturally... it's nothing."

When he turned back, he saw Sweetie still smiling at him. He immediately changed the subject, accusing the two soldiers, "Do you acknowledge what Sweetie said?"

A sudden stench of urine filled the air, and yellowish fluid began to drip from the trousers of the two soldiers…

Sweet Cake fanned her nose and said, "This method is unfair to Miss Wen, making her the target of your attention for so long. Fortunately, you will soon forget all about it."

The two soldiers slammed their heads on the ground and cried out, "My dear ladies, I have elderly parents and young children to support. I cannot die here!"

Sweet Cake laughed and said, "You are already blind now, and going back would only be a burden on your families. It's better to die here."

Just as he was about to make a move, he suddenly heard a lazy voice behind him, "Who's crying over there? It's so noisy."

Looking over at the sound, Lu Xiaosan was walking out of the lake wearing only shorts.

“Brother Lu…I…we…” Wen Ying stepped forward and looked at him, saying with some grievance.

Lu Xiaosan patted her head, "What's wrong?" Then he noticed Tian Gao and the two soldiers.

"Don't worry, I'm here." After saying that, he walked over to the sweet cake.

The two soldiers begged for mercy from Lu Xiaosan, who was approaching them, "Sir! Please, have your two young ladies spare our lives!"

"Young ladies? Them? Humph!" Lu Xiaosan sneered.

He then pointed at the two girls and declared righteously, "It's clearly these two young people who lack martial ethics. Come on, try to deceive me! Come on, try to ambush me! I..."

"The women have all stripped naked and are bathing with you in the water. What else could they be but young ladies?" the two soldiers blurted out.

Lu Xiaosan looked down and saw that he was only wearing his underwear.

Looking at Tian Gao again, he noticed her face was slightly flushed. She was secretly watching him like a thief.

After making eye contact, she immediately looked away, and her face began to turn red.

Wen Ying, needless to say, lowered her already flushed face, looking like an innocent little white rabbit, which was extremely endearing.

"Hehe, are you right?" the two soldiers laughed.

"Yes, fellow villager!" Lu Xiaosan exclaimed with delight.

"Oh my, brother, you're from Shaanxi too!" Talking about their hometown and local delicacies brought back a flood of memories for Lu Xiaosan, and he grew to like the two soldiers more, quickly becoming one of them.

After exchanging pleasantries, Lu Xiaosan asked, "What's wrong with your eyes?"

"It's all because you, young man, are too barbaric!"

Just as Lu Xiaosan was about to reprimand her with a stern face, Tian Gao suddenly said with a cold expression, "They were peeping at Miss Wen while she was taking a bath."

"Kill! Kill these two guys right now!" Lu Xiaosan roared, his eyes wide with rage.

"Okay," Sweet Cake said with a smile.

Just as they were about to make their move, two soldiers suddenly jumped up and stuck two fingers into the eyes of Tian Gao and Lu Xiaosan.

"Bang! Bang!" Sweet Cake flew up and kicked the two men over, after all, the difference in strength was still too great.

"Grandma, sir, please spare us! We'll never do it again!" The two soldiers rolled on the ground, crying and begging.

Lu Xiaosan said softly, "I'll go check on Little Golden Retriever. You can handle the rest."

Sweet Cake surrounded the two people on the ground and said, "You eat the government's salary, yet you abandon the people you should be protecting and become deserters. This is disloyal and unjust."

"Furthermore, he spied on women's bodies and even attempted to use aphrodisiacs to force himself on them, which shows that he is a shameless person who is all bark and no bite."

"Seeing no hope of survival, he launched a sneak attack. He's another fickle and treacherous villain."

Sweet Cake looked at the two of them with a cold, sharp gaze. "Why should you disloyal, cowardly, shameless, treacherous, and fickle scum continue to live?"

"Then... then please give me a quick answer, young lady."

Sweet Cake sneered, "Thinking about dying generously now is a bit too late."

With that, a flash of silver light appeared in his hand, and in the blink of an eye, he had bound the two men's legs together.

"What...what are you going to do?" the two soldiers asked in terror.

"I'll help you finish what you haven't done." She stepped forward and fed the two of them the Blissful Aphrodisiac Powder.

The drug took effect, and in an instant, both of them became hot all over and their faces turned red. Their entire faces were filled with desire.

But with their feet bound together, their pent-up lust could only be vented on each other...

Lu Xiaosan and Wen Ying came up, both of them shocked by the scene before them.

"Ugh...so disgusting," Wen Ying said with a look of disgust.

"It seems Miss Wen agrees with what I said in the lake; girls should stay with girls." Sweet Cake said with a smile, looking at Wen Ying meaningfully.

Wen Ying blushed. "Sweet...Sweet Cake Girl, weren't those words...said to deal with those two?"

Sweet Cake nodded, her eyes full of provocation. "That is the purpose, but that doesn't mean what I said was false."

Wen Ying was terrified and didn't know what to do. She hurriedly looked at Lu Xiaosan beside her. She saw him laughing as he looked at the two people on the ground, excitedly exclaiming, "Hahahaha, that's hilarious!"

Wen Ying followed his gaze and saw the two soldiers, their eyes filled with tears, shirtless and embracing and kissing. But since the other person was not of the opposite sex, the two were destined to die painfully in such a situation.
