"This is the professional ability you were talking about?"
Liang Bing's face flushed bright red with frustration. If it weren't for the fact that she really couldn't beat him or afford to provoke him,
she'd seriously consider taking Kei Yamanaka down with her—mutual destruction included!
Was she really meant to be nothing more than a masseuse?!
He said something about enhancing her professional capabilities, but all he gave her were hidden technical data related to massages, acupressure, foot-back rubs, and cupping therapy!
The only added effect was a strange ability that simply made the person receiving the massage feel comfortable?!
Damn it!
Don't torture yourself~
At least earlier this guy helped upgrade her Fourth-Generation Divine Body, helping her create an advanced engine through Void-Anti-Void fusion.
Liang Bing tried hard to give herself psychological therapy.
But the more she thought about it, the more frustrated she felt!
To quote a common phrase, this bastard was treating her like his personal 'comfort girl'!
"What? You don't like this ability? Listen, if you develop it to the max, there's a chance you could actually grasp the concept of 'Pleasure.'"
Kei Yamanaka closed his eyes contentedly as he felt the tingling sensation on his scalp, speaking casually.
With his current level of strength and cultivation realm,
he could naturally tell that this special effect listing was essentially a weaker branch version of a certain concept.
It was like a seed waiting to grow.
If continuously developed, there was real potential to tap into some conceptual force!
Only that developing skill listings was difficult, and self-development even harder!
Without external help, trying to personally evolve this skill listing's effect to the level of mastering a concept was no easier than Liang Bing cultivating a brand-new, powerful warrior gene.
"Pleasure... really?"
Liang Bing looked uncertain.
Though the concept of Pleasure sounded somewhat unorthodox, when had demons ever been orthodox?
Concept-level power.
According to records within those little angels' databases, this was the kind of power only top-tier experts like Divine Chaos Mages could control.
Void and Anti-Void might break rules and alter laws,
but they didn't possess the ability to disrupt and overturn concepts!
"As long as you patiently nurture the seed, eventually it will grow into a towering tree. Think carefully, since we've met until now, have I ever lied to you?"
Kei Yamanaka sat back comfortably, enjoying the effects of [Massage Master].
Liang Bing recalled their experiences since meeting him, and immediately her face lit up with eager delight.
Her attitude and technique during the massage also became increasingly serious.
Though this guy had a rather despicable personality, always teasing her for fun, could she really say he'd ever lied to her?
Earlier he said he'd enhance her strength to the same level as Guy's.
Even if his words contained traps, only boosting her to the level of Guy's former strength, her improvement in strength had still been very real!
And this power...
Didn't it resemble what she felt before, that insane feeling of being slammed against a wall ten thousand times in just two minutes?
Damn it!
She had to master it!
Never mind anything else, at the very least she needed to let that damn witch Guy experience it first!
Two minutes?
Hmph... Not stopping until it lasted at least two years!
Let's see if that tomboy can still act all high and mighty when she sees her!
Angel? Pah!
Prostrate yourself before the Demon Queen who controls the world's pleasures!
Liang Bing's heart surged with excitement, recalling Kei Yamanaka's earlier question. A new suspicion formed in her mind.
If professional skill is actually the seed of the concept *Pleasure*, then could this so-called charm be the seed of the concept *Charm* itself?!
Damn! Want that too!
What should I do?
"Senior, can you tell me more about that charm you mentioned?"
"A kind of body scent different from pheromones. Absolutely devastatingly attractive toward aquatic and amphibious animals."
"Different from pheromones? Is it also a concept seed?"
"Hmm, concepts are different from other powers. Look at Kal-El and Motoi Ran. If you forcefully grasp abilities you're not yet ready for, eventually you'll completely lose yourself within them."
"Senior, want a back massage? C'mon, lie down on the bed in your master bedroom and let me give you a proper rubdown!"
"Your intentions are way too obvious!"
"Senior, I'm your legitimate subordinate. If I get stronger, doesn't that reflect well on you too?"
"Tch~ depends on how you act."

Early next morning.
Outside Blue Planet's atmosphere in the Superman Realm.
Kei Yamanaka was opening a World Portal between the Primordial Realm and Blue Planet while secretly cursing Liang Bing in his heart for being such an underhanded player.
Rubbing up and giving little squeezes without stopping, acting all flirty, yet not giving any real sweetness at all.
It kept him tossing and turning throughout the night, unable to sleep properly.
How unacceptable!
Someone else goes fishing— even without baiting the hook, they'd at least cast some bait first. You go straight for lure fishing, using fake bait to trick people.
Her swimming moves looked convincing enough, but absolutely no fragrance detected.
Just hooks without bait.
You really think men are herbivores?
After setting up the World Portal, Kei Yamanaka quickly darted into the Primordial Realm.
After greeting Dinisha and Clerie, he immediately returned via the World Portal to Kamar-Taj in the Marvel Realm.

Pat pat pat
In the presidential suite on the hotel's top floor.
Fresh out of the shower, Liang Bing was barefoot, frowning with frustration, pacing back and forth in the living room.
Damn it!
That guy actually ran away?!
She had given massages, back rubs, Thai-style, Hong Kong-style all night long, arms and legs aching, her feet killing her from all the stepping.
Not only did she endure various unwanted touches, but gained nothing in return!
Is this something a decent person would do?
"Damn it! No goods, no deal! Don't expect me to take my clothes off willingly and hand myself over! Shit!"
Cursing under her breath, Liang Bing stood with hands on her waist, growing increasingly annoyed with every step.
Now she finally saw through everything.
That stinking man was definitely a battle-hardened old fox!
First, he generously cast some bait, letting her smell the delicious food and have a couple tasty bites. Then he simply dangled a fish hook there waiting.
Want to eat?
Once you bite down, you'll definitely get hooked by him!
And then whether red-braised, steamed, spicy, or fried...
She'd undoubtedly be eaten alive!
The latest calculation data from Big Clock is ready regarding that 'Pleasure' seed from yesterday.
There's a real chance of reaching the conceptual level.
But even with a massive influx of stellar energy and running calculations continuously at full capacity, it would still take at least tens of thousands of years to reach the final result!
The key issue is, she doesn't have exclusive access to the Big Clock interface—it's also in the hands of angels, Liegong, and Superman Institute!
There's no way they'd let her monopolize Big Clock for tens of thousands of years!
"Damn it!"
Feeling tricked again, Liang Bing grabbed a bottle of red wine.
She chugged down nearly half the bottle in one gulp.
Big Clock's data is completely public—angels, demons, Liegong, and the Male Soldiers' Squad all benefit equally. Trying to surpass the angels through this route is impossible.
Plus those junior angels have already started fully arming themselves with Kamar-Taj magic.
With Guy overseeing the Sacred Knowledge Treasury and locking down its core magical logic, she could only siphon off some minor, superficial knowledge from the dark dimensions of those junior angels.
The gap between her and Guy's strength will only keep growing!
Trying to take a shortcut past him?
Other than Kei Yamanaka, where else could she find another opportunity like that!
"If you'd just stayed pure-hearted, I wouldn't even be having second thoughts now!"
Liang Bing set the bottle down and kept sulking where she stood.
She was scared as well!
Once things start going down this path, there's no turning back!
What if Kei Yamanaka just took what he wanted and walked away after?
She feared she wouldn't even have the strength left to tear a piece of flesh from him in revenge!
