The One Curtain Dream Array in Qin Chaose's hand had not been hastily set up; it was an array plate inscribed long ago. In just a few breaths, the array was complete.
Moments after the array formed, the three of them were surrounded by dense spiritual energy. Their surroundings became as though they were deep within the clouds, wisps of white mist winding through every direction.
Because special jade served as the array core, the dense spiritual energy layered upon itself. From afar, it looked like thin bolts of cloth drifting and floating around them.
As a high-grade array, the essence of the One Curtain Dream Array lay precisely here. These drifting sheets of spiritual-energy cloth were like curtains beside a bed: they isolated outside perception while protecting those within. Moreover, being at the array core greatly increased one's cultivation speed. It was one of the rare arrays that combined trapping, defense, and support into one.
Lu Feng's vision blurred, and he could no longer see what was happening inside the array. He could not help but marvel at its power. It truly deserved to be an earth-grade array.
At the same time, he became even more certain of their identities. They had merely wanted to rest for a night, yet they did not hesitate to expend an earth-grade array. They truly threw money around like dirt.
Fortunately, Lu Feng possessed the Evil-Dispelling Spirit Eyes, which could see through mist. As he secretly activated them, the scene within the array unfolded layer by layer before his eyes.
At this moment, the One Curtain Dream Array was roughly divided into three areas.
As the only woman, Pan Lianqing had been arranged in the central area, where the spiritual energy was densest.
This also matched her earlier words about trying to make a breakthrough within the array.
The two brothers, Qin Taiheng and Qin Chaose, occupied either side, guarding her from left and right.
Not long after entering the array, Qin Taiheng sat cross-legged and entered meditation, circulating a recovery technique to heal and regulate the injuries he had suffered during the day.
Qin Chaose, meanwhile, stretched lazily and loosened his muscles as though warming up his body. There was not the slightest sign that he intended to rest. Instead, a hint of fiery heat shone between his brows.
This made Lu Feng even more certain that Qin Chaose had some ulterior purpose in setting up this array.
"Could he be planning to deal with his elder brother?"
Lu Feng could not help but speculate. If Qin Chaose had some scheme in mind, the most likely possibility was a struggle for power. Such things were common as could be in huge family forces like the Qin Family.
Moreover, Qin Chaose kept glancing toward Qin Taiheng, whether intentionally or not, proving that he was waiting for some change in Qin Taiheng.
Perhaps he was waiting until the latter's recovery technique reached a critical juncture before launching a sneak attack.
As Lu Feng considered this, he prepared himself to secretly intervene and save him. Qin Su had shown him some care in the past, and he owed her a favor. Naturally, he could not stand by and watch the younger generation of the Qin Family slaughter one another.
Yet what happened next left him utterly shocked, his eyes filled with horror.
Qin Chaose quietly walked toward the center, lightly approaching Pan Lianqing from behind as she too sat cross-legged and cultivated with all her effort. The gentle, humble expression he had worn at the start was gone, replaced by a few traces of lewdness and wickedness.
Lu Feng's eyes narrowed. "His target is actually that woman?"
Lu Feng had initially thought Qin Chaose intended to seize Pan Lianqing hostage to threaten his elder brother. Yet after approaching her, Qin Chaose did not make a move. Instead, he crouched behind Pan Lianqing, leaned toward the lovely hair on her back, and took a deep breath of its scent. His expression immediately became one of immense satisfaction.
Seeing this, Lu Feng frowned even more deeply.
The Qin Family had always maintained strict discipline, yet who would have thought such a shameless man would emerge among its younger generation? He actually dared to covet his own sister-in-law?
Even as Lu Feng despised him, he could not help admiring Qin Chaose's nerve. His own elder brother was not far away—at a glance, they were separated by no more than a curtain—yet he dared extend his demonic claws toward his sister-in-law.
Such fearlessness had to have a reason.
Lu Feng quickly noticed it. Qin Taiheng's aura was extremely steady, but also exceedingly faint, as though he had entered a state of turtle breath. His perception of the outside world had become exceptionally blurred as well.
Qin Chaose must have known this, which was why he dared commit such despicable acts.
Unable to tolerate such taking advantage of another's peril, Lu Feng lightly pinched an emerald green bead between his fingers, ready to strike at any moment.
Pan Lianqing stopped cultivating. Sensing Qin Chaose's movements behind her, she immediately rose in shame and anger. She instinctively glanced toward her man, her eyes carrying worry and hesitation, before angrily scolding, "You are being far too presumptuous!"
Qin Chaose gave a wicked smile. "Sister-in-law, Elder Brother's Turtle Breath Art is at a critical stage. He will not wake for another two or three hours. We..."
Pan Lianqing glared at Qin Chaose with wrathful intent and said sternly, "Stop this nonsense at once. The Gate of Grand Void will appear tomorrow. I must break through to the Five Elements Realm before noon. Only then can I enter the Mystic Gate together with you and Brother Heng."
Qin Chaose lewdly scratched his lower abdomen, his face full of a sinister grin. "Sister-in-law is still some distance from breaking through to the Five Elements Realm. Breaking through in such a short time will be difficult. If I help you, if we unite yin and yang, we will surely gain much greater hope."
As he spoke, Qin Chaose had already undone his waistband, and a pair of scarlet underpants slowly fell to the ground.
"Put them on, now!" Pan Lianqing scolded resentfully, turning her flushed face away.
How could Qin Chaose listen to such words? He had already begun undoing his upper garments, chattering on without pause, "If Sister-in-law still refuses, I'll wake Elder Brother. If he comes over and sees this scene, he'll surely misunderstand."
Pan Lianqing's expression immediately softened at those words, her eyes filled with deep resentment. She thought of how she and Qin Taiheng were already betrothed and would marry next year. If he saw such disgraceful behavior, it would be impossible to explain. It might even ruin the marriage, bringing humiliation upon her family and dragging its name through the mud...
"I agree," Pan Lianqing finally compromised.
By then, Lu Feng's heart was already overflowing with rage. The Extreme Star Sky Evolution Art had been circulated to his fingertips, and he was waiting to kill that shameless lecher who took advantage of others' peril and used threats to force them.
Then he suddenly heard Pan Lianqing give a faint warning. "This is the last time I'm helping you!"
Lu Feng was so shocked that his spiritual energy nearly went astray.
The last time?
The hell kind of last time was that?
So this was not their first illicit affair?
Qin Chaose's eyes immediately lit up with delight. "All right, Sister-in-law really is the best!"
As he spoke, he removed his clothes and stood bare-chested, about to embrace Pan Lianqing.
"Don't..." Pan Lianqing coyly glanced at her future husband's vague silhouette beyond the "curtain," saying with some concern, "Put your clothes back on. It will not hinder much. If Brother Heng suddenly wakes, we will at least have a way to deal with it."
Qin Chaose feigned anger. "It's not impossible for me to put on my clothes, but Sister-in-law must do as I say later. You may not refuse any of my requests."
Though Pan Lianqing felt wronged in this situation, she could only nod in agreement.
Had she not been seriously injured during an earlier expedition and fallen into Qin Chaose's trap, losing her virginity to him, and then been coerced for the sake of the Pan Family's and Qin Family's reputations, Pan Lianqing would never have allowed Qin Chaose to behave so recklessly.
But once there was a first time, the second came easily...
By the third or fourth time, it became even harder to resist.
Still, this was Pan Lianqing's first time doing so in front of her future husband. Deep down, she was filled with worry, mixed with a strange thrill that made her feel all the more ashamed.
Qin Chaose rose and put his clothes back on. When he turned around and saw Pan Lianqing about to rise from her cross-legged position as well, he suddenly stopped her.
He walked straight toward her, loosening his belt another fraction, and stood upright directly before Pan Lianqing.
One stood while the other sat. Pan Lianqing's head happened to be level with Qin Chaose's waist and abdomen.
Faintly sensing what Qin Chaose was about to do to her, Pan Lianqing's face instantly turned crimson.
Before she could react, Qin Chaose grabbed her head and pressed it down.
"Mmph... no!"
"Sister-in-law!" Qin Chaose glared at Pan Lianqing in feigned anger. Seeing her resolute expression, tightly sealed lips, and clenched teeth, he threatened, "Have you forgotten what I said just now?!"
When Pan Lianqing only shook her head, her face full of resistance, her sealed lips refusing to part no matter what, Qin Chaose suddenly called softly to one side, "Elder Brother..."
This frightened Pan Lianqing out of her wits. She immediately became completely obedient, allowing Qin Chaose to pry open her mouth.
The resentful, accusing look in her eyes was fierce enough to devour someone, and tears glimmered faintly within them.
Unfortunately, Qin Chaose had no mind to care about any of that now. Lost in the moment, he vented his desires without restraint.
Watching these scenes from afar, Lu Feng could no longer bear to look. He quietly ceased circulating the Evil-Dispelling Spirit Eyes, afraid that if he kept watching, his eyes would be burned blind.
He could not help sighing inwardly. "Is this what the younger generation of upper-class families is like... or is this simply the atmosphere of Profound Gold City?"
"City folk really know how to play!"
Lu Feng struggled to calm himself, but before he could settle down completely, Pan Lianqing's muffled, broken sounds and the sound of flowing liquid reached his ears again...
"Having such high cultivation is troublesome sometimes!"
With a shake of his head and a sigh, Lu Feng sealed off his hearing.
What lay before him was simply too obscene!
Lu Feng pondered whether, once he reached Profound Gold City, he should tell Qin Su or the head of the Qin Family about what he had seen today.
At the same time, looking at Qin Taiheng's dead-man-like meditative state in the distance, he could not help feeling sympathy and pity.
One was the woman he loved; the other was his own biological younger brother.
The palm was flesh, and so was the back of the hand...
Who would have thought those two pieces of flesh would get together?
Driving was not easy, so read and cherish it. It is said that the supreme power of monthly votes can unlock the scenes within the One Curtain Dream Array. Young hero, what are you still hesitating for? Hurry and save Sister-in-law~
