“Damn it!”
Sensing the change within Shen Muyao’s body, Mu Fan was instantly alarmed.
He quickly looked up at the other two, who were still standing there in a daze.
“Get out, now!”
The moment his voice fell, Elder Xuan also realized the gravity of the situation and immediately led Lu Xueqing out of the room.
“WHOOSH!”
Elder Xuan had no time to explain.
With a wave of his right hand, several azure Array Flags appeared before him.
“Go!”
With a soft cry, the Array Flags billowed in the wind, instantly shrouding the area.
The vast, scorching aura from just a moment ago was immediately contained.
The room Mu Fan and the other were in was now firmly sealed.
Although this prevented any aura from leaking out, it also meant that Lu Xueqing and Elder Xuan, standing outside, could no longer see what was happening inside.
“Elder Xuan!”
Lu Xueqing looked at Elder Xuan anxiously.
Elder Xuan’s pale eyebrows knitted together, a grave look flashing in his eyes.
“It’s all up to their own fate now.
No one else can help.”
“But…”
Lu Xueqing bit her lip, a sense of dejection welling up inside her.
As a prodigy, a favored daughter of the heavens, she had never imagined she would ever feel so lost and helpless.
「Inside the room.」
Inside Mu Fan’s Dantian, the Luohou Essence Blood was being pushed to its absolute limit, yet it could only barely contend with the completely rampaging Phoenix True Flame inside Shen Muyao’s body.
‘It’s over.
I really bit off more than I could chew this time.’
Mu Fan raised a hand to wipe the blood from the corner of his mouth, a bitter smile in his eyes.
He was now at the very center of the storm.
The distorted energy created by the clash of two completely opposite auras was torturous enough to make one wish for death, but the most terrifying part was that he couldn’t move an inch.
All he could do was resign himself to fate and leave everything to the heavens!
“Mmmph!”
Suddenly, Shen Muyao, who was right in front of him, trembled.
Her consciousness had been completely overwhelmed by the extreme yang energy within the Phoenix True Flame.
Her entire body exuded an alluring aura, and she looked at Mu Fan with bewitching, hazy eyes.
“I…
I want it!”
Her panting tone, combined with a body that could drive a man to his death, was soul-snatching.
It sent a tremor through Mu Fan, but of course, it went no further than that.
However, no matter how much of a gentleman Mu Fan tried to be, his opponent was playing dirty. Enjoying the story? Read on at g.com.
Two slender yet fleshy arms, as fair and tender as jade lotus roots, slowly brushed across Mu Fan’s chest.
Her jade-like hands were like teasing feathers, sending shivers through his body.
‘No!’
Mu Fan wailed inwardly, his eyes filled with struggle.
Suddenly, Mu Fan’s body stiffened.
He looked down at the delicate, jade-like body in his arms.
Her soft, moist lips were now tracing a path along his neck.
“Fuck!”
Mu Fan cursed out loud.
He wished he could just pin this vixen down, but the sight of her vacant eyes made him forcefully stop that sordid thought.
But Shen Muyao, having long since lost her senses, couldn’t care less.
Feeling Mu Fan’s lack of cooperation, she let out a dissatisfied hum and began tearing at her own clothes, pressing her body even tighter against his.
Mu Fan watched all this, groaning inwardly.
The feeling of having a soft, fragrant beauty in his arms yet being unable to act was even more unbearable than the distorted energy raging around his body.
“VMMMM!”
However, just as Mu Fan was at his wits’ end, the Dao-intent Sword Embryo, which had been lying quietly in his Dantian, suddenly began to vibrate violently.
“Hm?”
Mu Fan felt the unusual movement from the sword embryo and his expression turned sharp.
He immediately began to circulate his Luohou Essence Blood with even more force.
The stalemate between the two opposing energies was instantly broken.
The streams of extreme yang energy pouring out of Shen Muyao’s body were continuously being worn down.
At the same time, the Luohou Essence Blood was gradually shrinking, its pure and immense energy guided by the sword embryo within him, slowly traveling toward Mu Fan’s chest.
‘What is this?’
Inside Mu Fan’s body, the energy transformed from the Luohou Essence Blood began to slowly merge with his own essence blood, then converged toward his sternum.
The moment the essence blood energy touched his sternum, it was like water meeting a sponge; the bone absorbed it completely in the blink of an eye.
Mu Fan blinked, watching this in disbelief.
‘My sternum absorbed that much pure, immense energy?’
Looking inward again, he saw that his sternum, once no different from an ordinary person’s, was now covered in complex and profound inscriptions.
A faint, dark light flowed within them, and if he focused, he could feel the terrifying energy they contained!
And the change wasn’t limited to his sternum.
On either side, the inscriptions seemed to come alive, slowly but surely spreading toward his ribs.
“THUMP!
THUMP!”
‘My defensive power is probably more ridiculous than an ordinary Profound Treasure.’
Mu Fan reached out and tentatively thumped his own chest.
A dull thud echoed, and Mu Fan grimaced.
The Phoenix True Flame, which had been vast and seemingly endless, was now slowly beginning to recede.
‘Time to suppress it completely!’
Steadying his mind and ignoring the little troublemaker in his arms, Mu Fan began to release an ice-cave-like, frigid aura from his hands, then slowly moved them toward Shen Muyao’s lower abdomen.
“Mmmph!”
A sudden chill spread from her lower abdomen, causing Shen Muyao to let out a soft cry.
Her body trembled, and unable to withstand the clash of the two energies, she passed out.
Seeing this, Mu Fan actually breathed a sigh of relief.
Without Shen Muyao’s interference, the process of suppressing the Phoenix True Flame became much smoother.
After about the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, the Phoenix True Flame within Shen Muyao’s body was completely suppressed.
Mu Fan let out a long, turbid breath.
But before he could pull his hands back, the person in his arms inconveniently opened her eyes.
Shen Muyao had just awoken from her faint, her mind still slightly muddled.
She lifted her eyes and stared blankly at Mu Fan.
Mu Fan, on the other hand, was also frozen in place, a single thought circling in his mind: ‘Should I say hello first?’
“Ah!
You pervert!”
Before Mu Fan could explain, Shen Muyao snapped to her senses.
Noticing her current state, her pretty face instantly flushed crimson.
Then, with a look of shame and anger, she raised her hand and slapped him.
“SLAP!”
Mu Fan’s mouth twitched, a helpless look in his eyes.
He hadn’t actually done anything, but now, he had no way to defend himself.
「A few moments later.」
“Ahem, serves you right.
Who told you not to explain yourself earlier?
You let me misunderstand that you were…
to me…”
Shen Muyao’s little face was red as she gave Mu Fan an embarrassed smile.
She had completely recovered by now and understood what had just happened, but she was still being stubborn.
Hearing this, Mu Fan raised a hand and awkwardly rubbed his nose.
In the end, he was the one who had benefited.
Even though he’d been slapped, it was…
definitely worth it!
