...
A Few (normal) hours later...
The quartet of ladies, Amelia, Jelena, Vanya, and Delaney accepted the fact that they were to be separated from Hal once again and they accepted that fact quite well since this scenario was prepared for.
Anyway, they had enjoyed this session. Even more so because it had been inside the Sensual Chamber.
Sure, in terms of cultivation speed, there was not much the Chamber contributed to their advancements but there was a sort of pride to having made use of the Sensual chamber for their dual cultivation with that virile man.
An added bonus was the record they had set for the longest time spent within the chamber and the amount of satisfaction evident on their faces.
You would think in a sect of dual cultivators whose very art relied on stamina as well as long-suffering for delivering lengthy pleasurable sessions, this record would have long been set way higher...
Alas, while horniness was a trait to be cherished in the Doxon Duchy, it did not always come with the Devil-like stamina Hal had access to by birth.
The news of the record spread quite fast.
A lot of the young maidens of the Sensual palace were already receiving news that there was a young man who spent twenty-four hours pleasuring four women and it aroused their horny curiosity.
Perhaps their so-called capable partners have long dropped the ball.
Before Amelia and the ladies were even back inside their dorms, conversations such as this were already happening between various ladies and their partners;
"Are you kidding me? The Doxon prince can spend an entire day satisfying four women and you can't spend two hours satisfying me?" says the lady.
Calling Hal the Doxon prince because he was the Duchess' son.
"*groan* I'm trying my best... But you're expecting too much too fast. Just let me rest. I'll be back at it soon... *Deep breaths* just thirty minutes..." says the man.
"Pathetic" says the lady with irritation.

For all we know, they spent most of their time having deep and meaningful conversations while taking long... Well deserved breaks" the man says in his defense.
The lady then sneers and says,
"Talking? Inside the Sensual chamber? Don't tell me you are as clueless as you are useless!"
While the many ladies of the Doxon Duchy would always leap to the defense of the Doxon prince who they knew nothing about and adamantly advocate his sexual competence,
The men would use the lack of in-depth knowledge of what had transpired within the chamber to strike back at those claims.
It was not just the young maidens who were interested in the Doxon prince either.
Many female elders of the Sensual palace discussed the young man's impressive stamina and while most would not readily admit they wished to have a taste, it was clear that they were thinking it.
Dual cultivation was indeed about getting stronger but it was also about feeling good.
About indulging in the body of your partner and participating in an act that truly made the two a complete whole.
It was about forging a connection that went past the simple physical connection of genitals...
... And these women... Mature women... Would love the opportunity to forge that connection.
None cared about the fact that cultivation differences would likely stunt the gains they stood to acquire from Hal...
... They just wanted to feel good.
And who could blame them?
For the second time, Hal caused a storm in the sensual palace.
The first time was when he had caused Emily to moan out loud. Something many had always thought was impossible due to her condition.
Of course, at that time, not many had known who was the cause.
This time, his name was quickly turning into a household name.
He was becoming a celebrity.
And it was not just within the Sensual palace...

Anyway, Hal was totally oblivious to all this as he and Emily were at the moment in her residence getting briefed by Andrei Antonov on the travel arrangements.
Rita, Karmen, Olivia, and Lillian were present as well.
Also, Sassy was wrapped around his arm and covered by his sleeve in her miniature serpent form.
Emily rolled her eyes at her brother's briefing which very much heralded an attempt to take over the whole thing.
"... And let me be clear. There will be no shenanigans" Andrei said and eyed Hal most of all which almost caused the young man to chuckle.
Emily sighed and finally spoke up. She seemed to be have been ready to let him drone on and on but drew the line on what she could tolerate when he mentioned 'shenanigans'.
"Andrei, this is my expedition. You are simply tagging along. And although I appreciate your assistance, I would prefer you limit the level of your condescension." she told her brother with a smile.
Andrei dipped his head but he was still eyeing Hal out of the corner of his eyes.
And how could he not?
This young man had every female member of the main Antonov Bloodline wrapped around his perverted finger.
And that was despite having many other women revolving around him like he was their center and the most important thing to them.
Just how many could one man need.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm'Maybe Dimitri is right' Andreu thought.
It was no secret that cousins were at war in the Doxon family for who would become Duke and while Hal seemed to have the most claim to the title as the Duchess' some while also having the support of his powerful grandfather, Dimitri was not sure Hal actually cared about the title.
Being such close friends with Kirill Doxon, Anton Antonov, father of Dimitri, Andrei and Emily was not in the dark in regards to the Doxon family politics and so Dimitri had enough information to come to his conclusion.
Dimitri had suggested that Hal might not wish to be Duke and might have his eye on something larger.
An ambition none would dare openly speak of but knew was being referred to instantly.
The eldest son of Anton, Dimitri claimed he had noticed something about Hal and the women with him and thus hypothesized that he was striving to create a force that transcended any family and was beyond such support.
A force that was completely his.
And the women around him (Hal) were undoubtedly the first candidates of said force.
At the time, Andrei scoffed at this idea...
He felt it was silly for Hal or anyone for that matter to create such a potentially powerful force with one-on-one relations as that would limit the range and size of said force.
He felt that while it made for a good foundation, there was still a need for political alliances.
However, his mindset was now undergoing a change.
Maybe Hal was indeed that silly.
Eventually, he said,
"No problem, little sister. However, the fact that you are leading this expedition doesn't mean there should not be ground rules."
Emily shrugged,
"Of course there are. We know what we are doing and we are focused on what we stand to gain within the tomb rather than on each other. I just felt the need to stop you from actually pointing it out because there was no point in doing so."
Andrei nodded and then sighed...
Looking into his sister's eyes and observing her mannerisms when Hal was involved, he could not help but wonder, if put in a position where she had to choose...
.... Would it be Hal and his party or would it be the Antonov family?
