Esha was watching the beautiful full moon while sitting on the terrace. Cold breeze flew and hit her delicate cheeks whose beauty was ruined by a tear going down on them.
"Mom~"
Her mind was lost in thoughts of her mother.
"Hey, Esha!"
Esha turned her head towards the familiar voice.
Karan was walking towards her with just a loincloth around his crotch.
His body was covered with sweat from the many sexual activities that he had done before coming here, which Esha found sexy.
He reached and sat beside her.
"You didn't sleep?"
Esha asked with a sorrowful voice.
"Hey, I was going to ask that question."
Karan replied to cheer her up.
"Hehe~"
Esha giggled.
"Thinking about your mother?"
Karan asked as he gently pulled her into his lap.
"Yes, I miss her a lot. I wish she would be with us."
Esha sighed.
Karan wrapped his arms around her waist and she found a familiar comfort in his embrace.
Karan kissed her on her forehead.
"I talked to Xiuying if we can bring your mother here or not."
Karan said.
"Really? What she said?"
Esha turned her head to face Karan. Her voice and heart were filled with hope.
"Yes, we can... "
Karan hesitatingly answered.
"Oh my Karan! That's GREAT! Let's do it!"
Without letting Karan finish, Esha squealed in excitement.
"Wait! Wait! Is it the right time to reveal everything and bring her here?"
Karan stopped her excitement.
"Huh? What do you mean, Karan?"
Esha asked. She was confused why Karan was against bringing her mother right now.
"We are still adventuring around this world. Your mother always gave me cold looks for messing up with her daughter and now she might kill me saying I'm putting you in danger!"
Karan explained nervously. He was imagining the scolding he will get from Esha's mother.
"Yeah, she will get angry towards me too, how about bringing her when we are on the level of Xiuying and others?"
Esha thought on Karan's words and suggested.
"That's exactly what I was thinking!"
Karan said with a smile.
"Thank you, Karan! You are the best, I love you!"
She hugged Karan and kissed him passionately. Karan too didn't let this opportunity go to waste so he enjoyed her mouth and tongue to the fullest.
Esha was extremely happy that she will be able to live with her mother in the future. She needs to get strong for that but tonight a large weight from her heart had been lifted.
*********
After a week of dual cultivating and having debauchery with the women from Pure Flower Palace, Karan and Esha went back to Crescent Moon Sect to commence Phase 2 of the Royal Sect Tournament.
As for rewards for winning Phase 1, every core disciple got a divine cultivation pill that soured their cultivation bases in Heavenly Realm.
Because of both dual cultivation and pills, Karan's cultivation base rose to the late-stage of True Saint while Esha's in the mid-stage.
Jiwon, Li Mei, Mami, and Mina also enjoyed the benefits and all became Venerable Saints.
Lastly, Li Su remained a Rising Saint.
In the sect master's mansion, Xia Xinyue was taking a meeting to talk about Phase 2. Other than her, all the core disciples were gathered.
"Everyone we now know what we have to do in Phase 2!"
Xinyue announced, pulling the attention of everyone in the room. She began to explain further.
According to Xinyue, five people who control the World Trees in the belated world will give a specific task to a sect from their continent. In total, fifty tasks will be issued for fifty sects, ten from each continent.
Emperor of the Zhong Empire, Zhong Zhi, is supposed to give a task to the Crescent Moon Sect that the core disciples have to accomplish.
"It's all well and good but what we will get for winning the tournament?"
Karan asked.
"In case we win, we will get three divine pills that will allow a person's cultivation to break through to heavenly realm from divine realm and a heavenly pill that will allow you to do the same but from the heavenly realm to immortal realm. And that person can ascend to heavens."
Xinyue explained.
Karan assumed that a heavenly pill should be very expensive and rare as even Crescent Moon Sect or Pure Flower Palace don't have one otherwise Xinyue or Xiuying would have been ascended to the Heavens.
After taking Karan's question, Xinyue continued explaining.
To judge how well you did your task, a committee is formed. And they will give points based on your performance. And only core disciples can do this task, breaking this rule will get you disqualified.
"So what we have to do, sect master?"
Esha, who was sitting close to Karan, asked.
Xinyue replied with a smile.
"You will be going to the continent of Aryavarta!"
*********
The seven core disciples of the Crescent Moon Sect embarked on a journey to Aryavarta.
To reach the nearest city of that continent, they have made their way through a large and long snowy mountain range that separated the two continents. Their path was filled with rocks and snow. They were riding on beasts that seem to be a hybrid between horses and mountain goats.
The disciples hired a guide for this travel as no one had any experience in it.
Days were spent riding on the beasts while nights were spent resting in tents. All-day on the beasts didn't stop the gorgeous women to ride Karan at night, much to his pleasure.
After traveling three days and two nights, on the eve of the third day, the group reached their destination.
The large city was surrounded by hills from three sides and a large wooden wall from one side.
"This is Pravatnagar!"
The guide said showing that his work had been done and he is expecting his pay.
"Li Su!"
Karan gestured to pay him.
Li Su paid the guide and quickly get back to the group who already started moving towards the city.
