Early Morning...
Clark family estate...
Inside the room, Tony slowly opened his eyes. He felt an indescribable vitality flowing through every inch of his body.
The Heaven Devouring Origin Scripture quietly circulated on its own, the Tyrant Dragon Physique completed its second evolution without the slightest instability.
Even his breathing carried a faint trace of draconic majesty.
Standing up leisurely, Tony stretched with a smile while observing his reflection in the bronze mirror.
His appearance had hardly changed, yet the Truth Eye immediately revealed the countless improvements hidden beneath the surface.
His bones shone with a faint golden brilliance, his meridians had widened considerably, and the circulation of life energy had become smoother than flowing water.
The system had not exaggerated in the slightest.
Tony flexed his fingers experimentally before casually punching toward the empty corner of the room.
He had deliberately restrained himself to less than one percent of his current strength. The compressed air alone burst forward like an invisible cannonball... It broken a heavy stone ornament into countless fragments before continuing another several meters and leaving a shallow crack across the wall.
Tony stared at the damage for several silent moments before rubbing his forehead with theatrical helplessness.
"Wonderful," he muttered with an amused chuckle.
A cold laugh interrupted him... Elsa, tied to the bed.
The princess of the Demonic Sea Tribe showed no sign of panic. "Judging by that foolish smile, I suppose your cultivation succeeded. Congratulations. You are officially a greater nuisance to the entire world."
Tony laughed openly instead of becoming offended. "Princess, you truly have stupid tongue and a useless brain. Were you raised that way, or is it a natural gift?"
"Bastard..." she cried out angrily.
"Hahaha... Seems like you forgot your situation. I think it’s time for you to worry about yourself." Tony said while staring into her eyes.
"Tchhh... You don’t have the guts to kill me. And I’m not afraid of any torture. So, shut your nonsense, idiot." She uttered with a mocking look.
Tony’s face suddenly turned serious. In the next second he flicked his hand and a needle set box appeared from his storage ring.
He carefully opened the lid to reveal dozens of perfectly polished silver needles arranged in meticulous order.
Seeing them, Elsa’s confident expression finally changed by the smallest fraction. "Acupuncture?" she asked, narrowing her eyes suspiciously.
Tony nodded cheerfully before answering, "Not ordinary acupuncture. Hahaha... Pleasure puncture. Hahaha..." Tony laughed as he picked the needle.
"Hmmm... Foolish tricks won’t work on me." She said confidently.
"Really, I think before coming here... you should have properly enquired about me. For your kind information, I have another popular name in the Nine Lotus Academy... ’The Pleasure Doctor!"
Elsa remained silent for a moment before allowing another mocking smile to appear. "You expect me to believe that? Tch.. those tiny needles can accomplish what your threats failed to do? If your intention is to frighten me, you should have brought a larger weapon."
Tony shook his head with exaggerated disappointment as though listening to an exceptionally poor student answer an obvious examination question.
"That is precisely why most people misunderstand doctors. A sword convinces the body to surrender. A physician convinces the mind that resistance has become pointless. The difference is elegance." He replied while dipping the needle in a honey-like solution.
Tony slowly approached Elsa without the slightest trace of hostility, stopping only when he stood directly beside her. His smile remained relaxed, almost lazy, yet the confidence hidden behind it caused Elsa’s instincts to quietly sound an alarm despite herself.
The first silver needle barely touched her naval. There was no pain, no visible injury, and not even a drop of blood.
Tony calmly inserted several more around seemingly random points before taking two casual steps backward to observe the result with genuine academic curiosity.
Elsa frowned almost immediately. Nothing hurt. Her body remained perfectly functional, yet something felt subtly wrong.
"Mmmm~!"
Sounds reached her ears a fraction later than expected. Her perception of distance became strangely unreliable. Even the rhythm of her own breathing felt unfamiliar, as though someone had quietly rearranged the invisible patterns through which her senses interpreted the surrounding world.
She instinctively attempted to circulate her spiritual energy to stabilize herself. But soon she realised it’s an impossible task.
Tony clasped his hands behind his back with obvious satisfaction. "Excellent. The old records were correct. Your bloodline adapts more quickly than ordinary cultivators."
Elsa immediately understood that he had been observing her reactions from the very beginning, and although she refused to admit it aloud, the realization irritated her far more than the strange sensations themselves.
"If this is your famous interrogation," she replied with forced composure, "I am profoundly disappointed. I expected something worthy of the notorious Tony Clark, not a lecture delivered by an overconfident physician."
Tony laughed so loudly that even his own voice echoed. "Princess,It’s just the trial. The real Crocodile festival is still waiting for you."
He applied some kind of oil to his hands and approached her with a sly look.
Elsa’s body elevated before him like a meal ready to eat.
The moment Tony’s fingers touched Elsa’s naval, a wave of tingling sensation surged within her body like an electric current.
This unexpected feeling in her body caused her to let out a surprised uncontrollable moan.
"Ahhh~" Her moan reverberated in the prison like an echo.
When she realized what she had done, Elsa’s face flushed red. "What happened just now? What did he do to my body? What is this sensation? God...!"
It was at this moment Tony slithered his fingers across her back with snake-like movements, spreading the tingling sensation all over her body.
"Mmm~"
Princess Elsa’s body trembled, and her hands naturally turned into fists, stiffening the muscle in her body.
"Relax your body..." Tony’s gentle voice entered her ears as he pressed his fingers into her soft naval point.
"Mmm~"
Another unintentional moan escaped her mouth.
"W-What is this feeling?" Princess Elsa was shocked at the reaction of her body; it felt as though even a gentle wind created by Tony’s moving hands could cause her body to stir with delight.
This feeling of pleasure was something she couldn’t experience in her lifetime. Even when she was playing with the most sensitive part of her body she didn’t get this sensation.
Yet she was feeling such a strong sense of pleasure at this moment from a mere touch of his finger tips.
"If only this could last forever..." She muttered to herself as her body slowly turned into a puppet in his hands.
An unknown amount of time passed since she went into an ultimate state of pleasure, and suddenly, the heavenly feeling that wrapped her body abruptly stopped.
She opened her eyes instantly to look at Tony with a puzzled look, wondering why he stopped.
"What? Are you enjoying my touch?"
Those words caused Elsa’s expression to freeze for the briefest instant, and Tony immediately noticed it.
Instead of pressing forward, he leisurely poured himself a cup of tea before sitting beside her.
"You entered my residence because someone ordered you to search for the World Tree Seeds," he said calmly. "That much is obvious. What interests me is why your ancestor values them enough to risk provoking the Clark Family. Men like Luka do not gamble unless the reward exceeds the danger."
Elsa looked directly into his eyes without blinking. "Then ask my master."
"I would," Tony answered with a pleasant smile, "but unfortunately she is far less cooperative than you."
"You greatly overestimate my willingness."
"Hahaha... I rarely overestimate anything. Also, I, still not used any specific pleasure technique on you. Should I try?"
Elsa finally realized that she had no chance against Tony. "Why does this bastard have so many tricks? And this sensation... God, I can’t control myself." She muttered with an agonising look.
Looking at the smiling young man opposite her, she suddenly understood why even the World Tree Spirit had wanted him expelled forever. He did not simply ask questions. He tortures you, until he gets what he wants.
Tony gently tapped the forehead with one finger before speaking in the same calm tone.
"Princess, don’t make me turn you into my puppet. Also, I have the chance to enjoy your body. I hope you know the consequences. It’s time for you to decide."
Elsa slowly closed her eyes. For the first time since her capture, genuine frustration appeared across her face.
"I only know that my ancestor wants them. I really don’t know their original use. Every-order reaching our generation carried the same instruction. Find the World Tree Seeds before anyone else. Protect them at any cost. Deliver them personally. Nothing beyond that was ever explained."
Tony studied her through the Truth Eye for several long-moments. No fluctuations. No hidden deception.
