"Ah~, no~…"
In a deep cave, a shriek bounced off the solid bedrock. Shui Ruohua and the newly captured prey opened their eyes to witness a most blushing scene.
They saw a blushing man with red hair and a creepy smile, the same youth they met two weeks back.
As well as a most familiar woman, howling under that vile spawn of a human being.
"Junior sister!"
Shui Ruohua cried, "You bastard, let her go!"
She felt powerless to come to her rescue, finding her cultivation sapped.
The redhead snickered, "Hi-hi-hi, lassie, are you that excited? Don't worry, your number will come up soon."
"Rotten piece of filth!" Shui Ruohua's eyes were red at the agony her dear junior sister was subjected to.
Chu Qingcheng and Dan'er woke up as well to see the same revolting image.
While of the Demon Scheming Sect's gang, only the women snorted something, as the rest were quite eager learners of this ritual the beasts used every now and then.
Fiend Yang was drooling, "Hey, pilgrim, we don't know them, just bumped into each other. Do what you want with the girls, but let us go."
"He-he-he, I saw you trying to help them. Don't think your act will fool anyone." The redhead mocked.
Fiend Yang sighed, "Our leader is an old friend of that woman so he wanted to help. We're different."
"Who cares? You're in my cave, so that makes you my prey, at my whim, he-he-he…" The redhead cackled as he put more effort into his actions, making the miss under him cry one last time before slumping.
She dried up under the naked eye, becoming a husk in seconds.
[Sucking yin?!]
Fiend Yang eased up. [Since the guy trains in such an art, we guys should be safe, ha-ha-ha…]
Whoosh!
The redhead, however, stood up and flicked for a youth to fall into his hand. He then absorbed the red lights emanating from the kid, his essence.
The youth ended up dried up like the lass.
[Uh, now it's yang?]
Fiend Yang's face twitched, looking at the redhead with pitiful eyes, "Dude, are you a man or woman? Can't you just pick one? Let some of us have a shot at life at least. "
"Hi-hi-hi, I'm taking both yin and yang. Don't you worry, I'll be tending to pluck an Ethereal Stage expert's yang soon. It must be a treat for sure, ha-ha-ha…"
Fiend Yang's face sank and looked at his fellow comrades sporting the same bitter face. [Here I am a mighty Ethereal Stage expert finding my end at the hands of a kid, by having my yang taken no less. Oh, the shame!]
[Curse you, Zhuo Fan! You said you'd save us! Where the hell are you?]
Every victim here echoed his thoughts, as they gave their lives all so Zhuo Fan would come up with a solution.
Ignoring the old guys, the redhead pulled his pants with a happy grin and turned to the ladies present, Yue'er in particular, "Hi-hi-hi, girlie, my, how ripe you are. Want to chat with yours truly?"
The redhead went to break both her arms and legs.
Except for a creak, nothing gave and the guy looked baffled, "Hey, are you sure you're a woman? How are you so hard? Come on, break already…"
The redhead snarled, "W-what the hell is your body made of?"
Yue'er mocked, "Sorry, but master gave us all Zombie Pills that harden our bodies. So stop wasting your breath."
"There's actually such a bastard master out there? I get punishing one's disciples, but to do it all so I can't enjoy you?"
The redhead was outraged, "Who here is your damn master? Come out and cure her! "
"Stop yelling, he's not here." Kui Lang sighed, "Dude, let us move around a bit or we'll soon be too stiff to even talk. We'll just turn to stone and die."
Glossing over the plea, the redhead frowned and exclaimed, "It's that punk! Just how is he your master when you have higher cultivation?"
"That's how he has us under control." Kui Gang lamented, coming up with an excuse.
The redhead nodded, slapping his chest, "Not to worry, the punk is stuck in my array. In a couple of days, I'll get the cure from his corpse, and then the fun will start, hi-hi-hi…"
His lusty grin fell on Yue'er and Bai Lian before leaving.
The two glared in reply, then eased a breath. [The Zombie Pill truly is a blessing in disguise.]
Contrary to popular belief, not all demonic cultivator women were like Hu Mei'er, not caring about her reputation and dignity.
The redhead went to Mystical Heaven Sect's side, patting Shui Ruohua's soft cheeks, then Dan'er and the other women, "How smooth, how soft. Now that's what I call a woman, not a rock. Now break!"
"Stop, you fiend! Don't touch them! It was I that insulted you. Take it out on me if you must!" Someone shouted.
The girls turned around in glee, "Young master!"
However, the sight of him left them stunned. Xuan Shaoyu's hair was a mess, his eyes red, his face pale, and it bore a crazed look. His mind drifted off somewhat, his gaze nasty.
"Bastard, what did you do to young master?" Shui Ruohua cursed.
The redhead snickered, "Nothing, just let him enjoy the show, lucky bastard. Yet look what that did to him. His poor heart couldn't take it. How is it my fault?"
"There's no way our refined young master would…" Shui Ruohua's face was red from anger.
The redhead shook his head, "Refined? He-he-he, you righteous pompous cultivators just love slapping each other with fancy words all for appearance's sake. I only said he looks refined normally while when crazy he's anything but human, quite the demon like me in fact. Did you know this same nice young master of yours had a taste of your junior sister's yin?"
"What?!"
Shui Ruohua and the girls watched Xuan Shaoyu with questioning gazes. All he could do was hang his head in shame.
[He went demonic, just as filthy as this demon…]
"Shut up, demonic vermin! Young master will never fall for your schemes. He'd never make such a mistake!" An elder shouted.
Shui Ruohua and the others cried, "Elder Yun, you're alright!"
There were three elders at Xuan Shaoyu's side, two in the 4th layer of the Ethereal Stage, and the other in the 5th. They all looked calm with their eyes closed.
Elder Yun was the leader, reprimanding despite not looking.
The redhead walked over with a smile, "Old coot, I had tried so many times to tempt you old guys, yet only he fell each time. With all of us having a demon inside, sooner or later it will come out. Since Mystical Heaven Sect's young master is now a demonic cultivator, would that make Mystical Heaven Sect a future demonic sect? Ha-ha-ha…"
"Preposterous! Young master is still too young and naive. While he may make mistakes, there is no way he will walk the same path to hell as you demons! He will not shame Mystical Heaven Sect!" Elder Yun cussed.
The redhead shrugged, "It's all the same since Mystical Heaven Sect's tiniest stain will make it a laughing stock to the other sects. A righteous cultivator learning how to pluck yin, his sects' sisters in fact. Tell me if that ain't funny, ha-ha-ha… "
The elder's beards shook in rage while Xuan Shaoyu just hung his head. Shui Ruohua looked at this young kid in pity and sighed.
"I've wasted enough time on some old buzzards. I'd rather enjoy my spring around lovely ladies, ha-ha-ha…"
Flicking his sleeve, the redhead sported his same old lustful smile, "Now, who's the next pretty? Ha-ha-ha…"
The women were fuming mad, their hearts in their throats.
The target of this sicko would lose her life and her innocence.
The redhead's eyes slobbered all over Chu Qingcheng's refined casing, "It's the first time I, Yan Mo, saw such a pure woman. I can't help myself and can't wait to enjoy it."
Chu Qingcheng had only a cold glare for him.
"A special woman, indeed, to not feel fear." Yan Mo said.
She shook her head, "How can I when I know he'll save me?"
"Who, that nobody? Just a 2nd layer Radiant Stage cultivator trapped in a dream? Give it up, ha-ha-ha…"Yan Mo laughed.
Chu Qingcheng had the same smile on her lips, "You don't know him like I do. He never goes back on his word."
Watching her pure smile from the heart mesmerized all present. Not even women could escape her charm.
Xuan Shaoyu's heart stirred, [Who is she talking about?]
Yan Mo licked her lips, "Angel face, you're really amazing. I just can't wait to have you. No, I won't turn you into a husk like those other nobodies, I will have you forever at my side."
"How dare you sully junior sister Qingcheng with your mouth…"
Pa!
Yan Mo smacked Xuan Shaoyu in his place and into the wall. He crashed to the floor, bleeding from the mouth.
"Young master!" The women cried.
Yan Mo sneered, "Kid, I let you in on the fun, and now you grow an attitude to look at my woman? You can have anyone here, except her. You just don't cut it! "
Xuan Shaoyu glared back.
Yan Mo ignored him and turned to Chu Qingcheng with the same sickening smile, "Darling, I won't force you. Though I bet you'll be begging me soon for it, hi-hi-hi…"
Yan Mo's finger had a tongue of flame hovering on the tip, with cyan and scarlet intertwining within. The women shuddered as their bodies warmed up and their eyes softened.
Elder Yun shut his eyes, "Meditate on your inner piece, don't let the flame control you. That's the rarest demonic flame, Yin Yang Union Flame. It can control yin and yang, harmonize Dao and instill desire in one's heart. He used this flame on young master to make him become demonic."
The others shuddered and closed their eyes, though the pained expressions and the heavy sweat told a different story.
Yan Mo cackled at Chu Qingcheng, "Darling, see that? They're so far, yet can't help themselves. Yet you are right in front of the flame, your heart must be overwhelmed. Soon you will turn from a virtuous woman into a nympho. That's our cue for a night of good time in perfect bliss, ha-ha-ha… "
"A shame that's not gonna happen."
Chu Qingcheng mocked him, sitting just as calm as before.
Yan Mo took back the flame and cried, "Y-you have the Empty Spirit Body!"
Chu Qingcheng gave him a cold smile.
"The Empty Spirit Body is said to be rarer than once a hundred thousand years. It can take all energies and null them. It is the best cauldron on earth! It can help others in practicing the most difficult dual cultivation arts by adjusting the yin and yang; a godlike dual dao companion!"
Yan Mo's heart shook, then cackled, "I struck gold! I was only looking for a bit of fun and found the motherload. I'll dual cultivate with you my entire life. You will help me improve my control of Yin Yang Union Flame to new heights and I can then fight Wu Qingqiu!"
Yan Mo threw himself at her.
Chu Qingcheng cried, "Damn vile swine, didn't you say you won't force me?"
"Time's changed. I wanted your heart before but now I only want your body!" Yan Mo's mouth split into a nasty grin.
Mystical Heaven Sect's people were powerless to help, only watching in anger.
Chu Qingcheng was worried as well, [What the hell is taking that bastard Zhuo Fan so long?]
Whoosh!
A sharp red glow shot for the deranged Yan Mo pouncing on Chu Qingcheng's exquisite forms like a guillotine, throwing him into the wall.
Yan Mo's chest hurt, looking at Chu Qingcheng in shock, "Such a strong soul. It hurt my own, but I clearly sealed all your power. How did you muster so much strength still? "
"Sorry, that was me. You got to give credit to who it's due."
An easy voice came from behind Yan Mo. Yan Mo jumped around to face Zhuo Fan a hundred meters away. He bore a smile of naked contempt and endless hatred.
"Zhuo Fan!"
"Steward Zhuo!"
"Brother Zhuo!"
"Took you long enough!"
All of them were overjoyed. Shui Ruohua and Mystical Heaven Sect's disciples were happy as well; a ray of hope shone down on them.
[Our lord savior is here!]
Only the elder and Xuan Shaoyu looked on in doubt, [Who's he supposed to be? Why do they take him as their savior?]
Then they saw Chu Qingcheng's eyes filled with love. Xuan Shaoyu gnashed his teeth.
[So it's him.]
A flick of his finger called back the red glow from Chu Qingcheng and Blood Infant was back in his home.
"Ha-ha-ha, letting Blood Infant in Qingcheng and using her as bait paid off. Oh, did our lovey-dovey scene get on your nerves?" Zhuo Fan mocked Yan Mo.
Yan Mo squinted, "You did it just to spite me and force me into separating you so you could use your demonic creature in her to find me out and save them. As everyone I bring has their cultivation sealed."
"Ha-ha-ha, we got a winner. We knew ages ago you liked to mess around so we laid a trap for you in the form of a play. I figured you don't like killing much, but instead toying with others, especially with lovers, and then killing them. "
"Great minds think alike I see. No wonder you're a demonic cultivator."
Yan Mo smiled, "How did you know I'll take the bait?"
Zhuo Fan rolled his eyes, "Are you stupid or blind? A glance at Qingcheng and all will be made clear. That lovely and beautiful complexion, who can resist it? Every man on this god's green earth would blow a gasket seeing us. It goes double to a playful imp like you."
Chu Qingcheng blushed and rolled her eyes, yet her heart was all warm and fuzzy.
Yan Mo gnashed his teeth, "Ha-ha-ha, nicely done, you're among the rare few that got me. I admit it. Though one more thing I don't understand, how did you escape the array?"
"Setting a 7th-grade array's nothing to it and using sacred stones on it is the same."
Zhuo Fan showed a stone practically oozing spiritual energy. Fiddling with it and throwing it around, "I can even set 10th-grade arrays. As for sacred stones, let's just say you're not the only moneybag. What's so hard on using an array on array?"
Pop~
It was the sound of eyeballs falling on the ground. The audience watched the sacred stone in Zhuo Fan's hand with stupefaction, especially the Demon Scheming Sect's group. They all knew Zhuo Fan was loaded, but this was ridiculous even for him. Now here he was flaunting the stuff on their way to Double Dragon Gathering to fight for it. Talk about cruel irony…
