Women-Your Name Is Deceiver!

If the expert hadn't noticed something was wrong with her in time, she would have been in grave danger today!

The expert was truly incredible. He could send his will directly into the Dao Sea and pinpoint her location with perfect accuracy.

It was said that the Dao Sea was a reflection of the boundless chaos.

No divine ability, spell, spiritual energy, or power could exist within it.

Even a sage's will wouldn't dare venture there lightly. There was a very high chance of getting lost in the Dao Sea, and it was far more perilous than the boundless chaos.

Nuwa was filled with gratitude. She had wanted to thank him, but the expert's expression seemed a little strange.

Nuwa felt rather conflicted. After hesitating for a long while, she decided to pretend she hadn't noticed.

At the same time, she made up her mind: as long as the expert didn't bring it up, she would keep acting this way. She absolutely couldn't let the truth slip.

To change the subject, Nuwa quickly looked around.

"Hmm, Young Master, this rope looks quite exquisite."

When Jiang Ping heard her, he noticed the rope beside him—the one he hadn't paid any attention to earlier, and had somehow brought inside.

He picked it up and gently rubbed it as he said, "I found this rope on the back hill. It didn't look like this at first. It seemed too thin and not very sturdy, and since I happen to know a bit about weaving, I redid it."

Nuwa's brow twitched. The expert had woven this rope himself?

No wonder it looked ordinary, yet had sent three members of the demon race back to their true forms in an instant!

A rope woven by the expert himself surely hadn't been ordinary to begin with. Now, it was probably even more powerful—perhaps as mighty as a Xiantian Spirit Treasure.

"Young Master, may I have a look?"

"Of course. It's just a rope. I use it to scare Da Huang, telling him I'll tie him up if he doesn't behave."

"You wouldn't believe how scared Da Huang was when he heard that. Hahaha! It's just a rope, but he tucked his tail between his legs and nearly pissed himself."

Nuwa thought, Who wouldn't be scared? Even Di Jun and Taiyi would nearly piss themselves!

Bah, bah, bah! The expert really can be both refined and vulgar. Even such crude words sound so charming coming from him.

Nuwa took the rope and examined it closely.

The more she looked, the more shocked she became.

Could this be the legendary Demon Binding Rope?

Yes, it must be the Demon Binding Rope!

Otherwise, it couldn't have forced a demonic beast back into its true form without the use of Magic Power.

But it doesn't seem quite the same as the one in the legends.

I understand now. The expert must have reforged it himself.

Nuwa shook her head again and again. The original Demon Binding Rope had only been particularly effective against the demon race. But after the expert reforged it, it was probably effective against all cultivators. It could directly attack the primordial spirit and bind the Magic Power within the body.

This is truly a powerful offensive spiritual treasure!

Watching Nuwa stare intently at the rope, reluctant to let go, Jiang Ping wondered if Miss Feng had taken a liking to it.

What a strange taste Miss Feng has. Don't girls usually like colorful clothes and bags, or gold, silver, and jewelry? Why is she interested in this shabby rope I was planning to use to tie up a dog?

Look at her—she can't even take her eyes off it.

If you want it, just say so. What's the big deal? I can give it to you.

"Miss Feng, do you like this rope?" Jiang Ping asked tentatively.

Nuwa reluctantly set it down, gently tucking a loose strand of hair behind her ear. She smiled and shook her head. "I don't like it that much. I just think it looks pretty."

Jiang Ping narrowed his eyes, furrowed his brow, and clicked his tongue.

Women—your name is Deceiver!

Come on, don't lie to me. You clearly want this rope. Just look at your eyes—you can barely tear them away!

Women, why do you have to lie?

"Miss Feng, if you like it, take it. If you don't, I'll use it to tie up Da Huang," Jiang Ping said with a grin.

Nuwa froze, then casually replied, "Oh, don't, Young Master. Da Huang is so well-behaved—why tie him up? Since you put it that way, I'll take it, then."

The corners of Jiang Ping's mouth lifted slightly. Hmph, nice try. I may have been single for decades, but handling a young girl like you is still a piece of cake!

"Miss Feng, go ahead and put it away."

Nuwa was overjoyed.

Watching Nuwa's reluctance to part with the rope, Jiang Ping secretly marveled.

The Primordial World really is strange. A mere rope can make a girl happy. Looks like my days as a bachelor are about to end here.

Jiang Ping suddenly felt poetic. His thoughts raced, and he immediately recited a poem in his heart:

The girls of the Primordial World are all first-rate.

No house, no car—come on, everyone!

What are you still hesitating for? Could life get any worse than being single?

After reveling in his own thoughts, Jiang Ping came back to his senses and hurriedly found a topic. "We've known each other for quite a while, but I still don't know where Miss Feng lives."

Nuwa replied at once, "It's not too far from here. I just happened to meet you, Young Master, and thought you were very interesting. Besides, I wasn't especially comfortable staying with my clan, so I came back again."

"Do you think I'm bothering you, Young Master?"

Jiang Ping quickly waved his hands. "Not at all. I'd be more than happy to have you here. I admire women with a personality like yours."

Nuwa's cheeks flushed slightly. The expert's praise filled her with joy.

"Then, Young Master, would it be all right if I stayed here for a while?" Nuwa asked softly.

She felt another wave of guilt. Why did I act so impulsively? This is far too much to ask. The expert definitely won't agree.

When Jiang Ping heard this, he was so happy he nearly fainted.

Happiness had come so suddenly. It hadn't been long at all, and a young woman had already come knocking, practically throwing herself into his arms.

Could the Heavenly Dao have sensed what I wanted last time?

It really is mysterious. Next time I run into trouble or feel troubled, I should tell the Heavenly Dao more about it. It'll surely help me solve everything.

But Jiang Ping was also a little torn.

There was only one house here, and they had only met twice.

Jiang Ping hesitated. "Miss Feng, isn't this a little too fast?"

Nuwa froze. "Fast?"

Jiang Ping nodded, then scratched his head. "Look, we've only met twice. Moving in together so soon seems a bit impulsive to me."

Nuwa flushed with embarrassment.

The expert is so wicked, teasing me like this!

"Young Master, you have no shame!"

"I never said I'd live with you. I meant I'd stay in another room."

Jiang Ping was terribly embarrassed. "Oh, Miss Feng, you misunderstood me too. What I meant was that I only have one house here, so it wouldn't be convenient. How about I stay outside in the courtyard, and you take my room?"

Nuwa wouldn't dream of occupying the expert's home and making him give up his room. She quickly said, "Young Master, how could I let you do that? The weather's fine for now, and I saw a Thatched Hut over there. I can stay there."

Jiang Ping approved inwardly. Girls in the Primordial World really are down-to-earth.

From Miss Feng's clothes and manner of speaking, she was clearly from a distinguished background.

Yet she wasn't the least bit arrogant, nor did she have any princess syndrome.

For the sake of being with me, she was even willing to stay in a thatched hut.

What a wonderful girl. I wonder who'll be lucky enough to marry her one day.
