The Lord Is Too Overbearing-Chapter 430 Tower Of Legacy

"Yes…that is correct," one of Xueyi's disciples, the one that explained about [Reverse Cycle] confirmed.

The people's heads turned to her. Their befuddled gaze turned into a disbelieving gaze as they covered their mouths. They stayed silent and pondered. Knowing how careful and paranoid Basil was, they were sure he had his reason for taking the risk.

However, they also considered him to remain that way since they knew how apathetic he was toward such a thing. They were sure he didn't consider gender as an advantage or impairment; it was just something to define what he was in front of the people's eyes.

"Well…I might have another daughter, then," Danzel muttered.

"I am going to have a sister," Shirley whispered.

"Oh, no—what am I going to do with this news?" lamented Clarissa…and the rest of the females who knew Basil there.

"It will not last forever, everyone. [Reverse Cycle] is used to treat Energy imbalance, not to change one's gender. It is but an after-effect, so Future Sect Master will return to being a man in no time," the disciple interrupted. "For the time being, though, he has to get used to it."

Knowing that it wouldn't be permanent calmed the females down. They then wondered how Basil would look as a female and were extremely expectant toward it.

….

Another hour passed, making it the second hour since the treatment started. The library was full of Qi. The pressure was oppressive and overbearing yet most of the people inside were feeling cold. The Yin Energy Basil had bottled up for years brought that coldness.

Standing in the middle of the room, right on the glaring intricate pattern carved inside the ice floor, Basil was the only one who was sweating. The pain he was enduring was immense yet his face remained stoic as ever. 𝑓𝔯𝑒e𝘸e𝘣𝓷𝘰ѵe𝚕.c૦𝙢

His brown hair that had been cut short in the battle with August had grown longer—long enough to reach below his waist. It was bushier and shinier than it had ever been, enhancing the charm that his feminine visage was already giving off.

His slightly tanned skin, which he had painstakingly achieved through years of being exposed to the sunlight, had gotten paler and pinkish. It was now as white as snow; the tinge of pink on his skin made it look vibrant, so no one would mistake him for a dead person.

His muscles had gotten leaner. His bones had also gotten smaller yet denser than they had been before. His height decreased—he was only 190 metres tall now—yet he remained as intimidating. He now also had two plump mounds on his chest which were noticeable enough to make any woman jealous.

"Is this coming to an end?" he asked. His voice sounded so melodious that one might fall asleep just by listening to him speak. 𝙛𝘳𝘦e𝓌e𝗯n𝗼ѵ𝙚l.𝒄𝚘𝑚

"How do you know?" Xueyi retorted.

"It is shrinking and changing—down there."

"…you don't even feel comfortable talking about that?"

Turning his eyes to Tian Long, Basil answered, "Why should I be uncomfortable with myself?"

"Great answer. Great answer."

Tian Long had been deprived of his sense of vision ever since Basil's body started changing. When he nodded his head in appreciation, he wasn't looking in Basil's direction because of that.

Basil himself didn't mind letting Tian Long see his new body. It was but anything eternal, so he didn't think much of it. Although he might have a woman's body, he was still a man inside. He believed Tian Long was aware of it, so he was sure Tian Long wouldn't make things weird.

Xueyi didn't think twice or consider Basil's opinion before sealing Tian Long's vision. The person himself might not notice it; however, she and her two disciples could tell what would happen had they followed his suggestion. Basil was extremely attractive as a man—turned into a woman, he looked incredibly stunning.

Boom!

As Basil's last identity as a man disappeared, her body discharged a huge amount of Yin Energy. It swept the entire room, causing the people to involuntarily feel chill down their spines.

She looked down at her body and couldn't help but immediately frown. Her chest was covering her vision, so she had to "put them aside" to be able to inspect her now flawless solar plexus. The Curse had been lifted; her Yin and Yang were now balanced. That brought a smile to her face.

Xueyi walked toward Basil, bringing Basil's shirt in her hands. "You have become a woman now. Just know that you can't undress wherever you like anymore."

Basil stopped inspecting her body and looked at the presented shirt. She took it and immediately wore it, uncaring to the fact that it was three sizes bigger. Fortunately, her shit had an [Adjustment] Rune carved on it. It shrunk in the next moment, making it fit nicely.

"The Rune is faulty," Basil said in distaste. "How can it not even adjust with the size of my chest? It is very tight around my chest."

Xueyi couldn't help looking down at hers. She stared at Basil with an unamused look afterwards, making Basil wonder why she seemed irate.

Putting on her robe that was also adjusting its size, Basil said, "You can return Uncle's vision. He looks more foolish than he already is."

"I can hear you, you insolent lass!"

"Ah, indeed. I have become more insolent," Basil remarked to herself in intrigue. "I can think up more scathing remarks now. I can also say them with more disdain than before, so they become more hurtful and stressful...interesting. So, this is how a woman's mind works. How peculiar."

As Basil was admiring her temporary self, Xueyi lifted the Seal and returned Tian Long's vision. She immediately grabbed his head before he could see what Basil had become and then whispered, "I am saving your relationship here. Control your eyes!"

Tian Long was slightly taken aback by the sheer fierceness in Xueyi's warning. He gulped his saliva nervously and then nodded his head in determination, prompting her to let go of his head.

Turning around, he looked at the temporary Basil for the first time. There, he saw the most beautiful woman he had ever seen—his eyes widened as he couldn't believe the day when he admitted someone was more beautiful than his late wife would come.

Basil had always had a serene or completely neutral look on his face as a man. As a woman, she had an eternal soft smile on her face that purified one's soul due to how pure it made her.

"What a sweet lass…I want to protect this lass," Tian Long remarked as he clutched his racing heart.

"Know that your head will roll on the ground the moment you do something to her," Xueyi warned.

"Chill, Senior Sister. Do you think I can easily be swayed by lust? Besides, do you think I will be able to do what I like to her?"

Tian Long was referring to the amount of Qi Basil was exuding. The moment the Curse was lifted, she no longer needed to suppress her Core. Now, she was a Middle Stage Purple Core Knight. The Qi she was exuding was as intense as the Qi that an Early-Stage Daoist of the Immortal Realm exuded.

"What a strange people they are, indeed—the Pacifer," Xueyi remarked.

"Anyway, Senior Sister. I think you need to tell her that she should slightly hide her assets. They are not the biggest but I can say they are the most per—"

Crack!

Basil stopped pondering the changes he had gone through and turned in Tian Long's direction. She found him clutching his head on the ground, making her wonder what he had done to earn a mighty slap from Xueyi.

Shrugging nonchalantly, she jumped and then observed what happened to her chest as she landed on the ground. The mounds on her chest jiggled violently, making her worry that they might fall off.

"This can't be. A woman's body is very fragile."

She cast a High-Grade Spell on her mounds, creating a focused gravity field around them. She jumped again and then smiled when they no longer jiggled violently like before.

As she shook her head in amusement at the things she was concerned about, she noticed something that she had overlooked—her hair. Glad that it was long again, she was about to tie it the way she had tied it when she was a man when Xueyi offered to tie it for her.

"Let me do your hair. I will tie it the way it doesn't hinder your fighting ability but still makes you look beautiful."

"Please, do, then," Basil accepted the offer without thinking twice.

"I can also give you more fitting clothes and…things you should wear if you want to. Those clothes must be uncomfortable for you, no?"

"That is not necessary. Our Magic is advanced enough to let us change our clothes to fit the other gender with a snap. I am comfortable wearing these. Also, if you are worried about the jiggle—I have it under control."

Basil gave Xueyi a thumb up, making Xueyi slap her forehead softly. Basil talked more than he used to do; however, she was just as blunt as she used to be.

Being the only man in the room made Tian Long self-conscious. He told them he would wait with Danzel and the others before saying his farewell.

Xueyi and her disciples immediately brought Basil to Xueyi's room, in which they would work on her hair. They couldn't wait to make her look more stunning than she already was; even the two disciples were giggling, forgetting their fatigue entirely.

….

In the gazebo, the people who had been silent for the last twenty minutes perked up as they noticed Tian Long walking toward them. They had been hesitating for the last twenty minutes to bring up Basil's treatment, so Tian Long's appearance gave them the reason to.

"How is he—she?" Danzel stood up.

"Woah…you already know?" Tian Long asked back.

"Miss Ying'er was kind enough to enlighten us on the matter."

Tian Long turned to Luo Ying'er, Xueyi's disciple who had told them about [Reverse Cycle] and then nodded his head. He walked toward an empty seat, sat down and then stayed silent under the people's bewildered gaze.

Uncaring to the gaze he received, he asked Ying'er to pour him tea. The scene caused the people to turn to Mei Qi as she was the only person amongst them who would make him talk.

As she stood up, however, Tian Long immediately said, "You will see her soon. I won't tell you much about her. You should see her for yourselves."

The people wanted to argue; however, they relented in the end. They waited until Basil showed up and, when she did, they were so stunned that they forgot how to speak.
