Bewitching Soul

Xu Yuan's purpose in re-entering the Bell-Tone Dark Domain was also very clear.

If I, Xu Changtian, can't subdue you, Sword Maniac Tang Ruofu, then surely I can subdue your wife, who's been bewitched by Charm Poison?

However,

Xu Yuan still harbored great doubts about Tang Ruofu's previous unusual behavior.

He still doesn't understand why the other person would be stabbed by him, and then he would stab himself in the back.

He didn't believe the other party was acting out of some so-called fairness.

When a person is just starting out, his temperament may influence his choices, but Tang Ruofu has been roaming the world for decades since his birth.

A span of decades,

Aside from those extraordinary individuals who could single-handedly defeat an entire era, the rest either died with their convictions intact or had their edges smoothed out and learned to compromise.

Tang Ruofu is clearly not the former.

So, what is this guy plotting?

One Mortal Shedding, and the other was perhaps a Half-Saint. Facing two Origin Beginning, they already held an immense advantage. What exactly made Tang Ruofu choose to do this?

A thousand thoughts flashed through his mind in an instant, but Xu Yuan decided in his heart to follow the plan he had made in his heart for the time being.

Due to the overflow of "damage," the outcome of battles between high-level cultivators is not solely determined by the clash of spells and techniques, but more by probing and countering each other's moves.

Whatever Tang Ruofu was planning,

As long as his plan succeeds first,

What Tang Ruofu was planning is no longer important!

Buzz--

The moment he entered the Bell-Tone Dark Domain, Xu Yuan immediately used the "Heavenly Eye Art" that Tianyan had cast on him to see the internal environment clearly.

The two women have started fighting.

And just as Xu Yuan suspected,

Xia Qing's Bell-Tone Dark Domain not only seals the cultivator's four senses, but also has other killing methods.

Slender, delicate fingers gently caressed the strings, and celestial music began to play. With each note, an invisible ripple quietly swept through the silent space.

The ripples swept across like a sharp blade that could cut through a hair, completely shredding everything around them.

These blades formed from sound waves were completely invisible to Xu Yuan, even with the enhancement of the ' Heavenly Eye Art '.

All he could see were the withered, chopped branches of the ghost trees along the way.

Fortunately, just because Xu Yuan can't see it doesn't mean Tianyan can't.

Tianyan hovered in mid-air, her expression serene, her delicate body enveloped in a layer of pale golden light.

As he moved nimbly, he was not harmed in the slightest by Xia Qing's terrifying, tidal wave of sharp blades and sonic waves.

Seeing this, Xu Yuan felt slightly calmer.

Even when facing the most terrifying enemy, having a god-like teammate like Tianyan always gives one a sense of security, as if someone is there to protect them.

The Yantian Art seems to have an absolute counter to Xia Qing's Bell-Tone Dark Domain.

Not only can it be immune to the blocking of the four senses of hearing, sight, qi, and soul by the Bell-Tone Dark Domain, but it can also see the traces of these invisible sound waves.

However, Tianyan did not directly expose the latter, but instead used the most clumsy way to deal with it.

She spread her immense Source Qi over a radius of several dozen feet, and whenever an invisible wave of sound swept by, the Source Qi spread around her would be able to detect it.

She is misleading Xia Qing.

In a life-or-death struggle, it all comes down to who has more trump cards up their sleeve and whose killer move is the least likely to catch the opponent off guard.

The next moment,

Xia Qing, who Mortal Shedding, and Tianyan, who was at the Origin Beginning, discovered Xu Yuan's return at almost the same time.

Xia Qing's expression darkened slightly, and she took a step back.

In just a moment of fighting, she had already sensed how troublesome Tianyan, not to mention Jing He, who could fight Tang Ruofu for several breaths without being defeated while in his Origin Beginning.

Her cultivation level was more than enough to handle the two of them, but Xia Qing had no intention of taking the risk alone.

Although she didn't know what had happened outside, the fact that this junior had gone to such lengths to get rid of Tang Ruofu and return must be related to the trump card she had suspected earlier.

Jing He's aura was already becoming disordered. As long as Tang Ruofu returned, everything would settle down.

In the blink of an eye,

Xia Qing's slender fingertips suddenly swept across the strings of the zither in her bosom.

The resounding melody transformed into a colossal pressure, engulfing Xu Yuan and Tianyan.

The entire dark space began to tremble, and the immense gravity distorted the air. Xia Qing's manipulation of the Dao Domain directly created a gravitational chasm between her, Xu Yuan, and Tianyan!

Void-Stepping Slash.

The magical patterns overlapping the meridians were activated once again, Xu Yuan's figure crossed the gravity barrier that had formed in an instant, appearing beside Xia Qing.

Since the start of the battle, Xia Qing naturally knew that the natural barrier she had created could not stop Jing He's teleportation sword technique.

The moment Xu Yuan appeared, ripples of sound waves formed around Xia Qing.

Sensing the chilling murderous intent around him, Xu Yuan still had a layer of ' Void-Stepping Slash ' spell patterns within his body, but this time he did not choose to dodge.

In the instant that murderous intent surged from all around, Xu Yuan swung the three-foot-long tree trunk, which glowed with a faint cherry-pink light, down without hesitation towards the alluring woman in front of him.

Seeing that Xu Yuan did not back down, Xia Qing's beautiful eyes narrowed instantly, but her elegant and beautiful face showed no sign of panic.

Since he won't back down, then cut off the arm of this junior holding the branch.

The difference between the Mortal Shedding and the Origin Beginning is once again evident at this moment.

Although not as terrifyingly fast as Tang Ruofu's, Xia Qing's reaction speed as Mortal Shedding Realm cultivator was at least an order of magnitude faster than that of Origin Beginning cultivator.

These differences are enough for her to deal with Jing He's desperate attack.

At this time,

A soul-piercing girl's voice suddenly resounded within the empty darkness.

"Seal up!"

The Heavenly Word Mantra, devoid of any emotion, seemed to transcend time and space, acting directly upon Xia Qing's body.

Sensing that the murderous intent intent around him had vanished, Xu Yuan's lips curled into a sinister smile.

A just two-on-one fight.

"."

Xia Qing's pupils constricted sharply as she sensed the sudden stagnation in her internal Source Qi.

She frantically circulated her internal Cultivation Method to break through the barriers within her body, but when she tried to circulate her Cultivation Method again to resist Xu Yuan's blow, it was already too late.

Time seemed to stand still at this moment.

Xia Qing leaned back, her eyes wide open, her dark pupils revealing only the ever-growing pink wooden stick.

Bang!

A crisp sound,

This time, nothing unexpected happened; Xu Yuan's Charm God Branch struck Xia Qing squarely on the forehead.

Upon contact with the external force, the Charm God Branch, which had already reached its critical point, instantly transformed into countless pink fluorescent petals, enveloping Xia Qing's voluptuous figure.

But the next moment...

A hurricane spread from the chaotic flowers, and the fluorescent pink cherry blossoms that enveloped Xia Qing's graceful figure were instantly crushed into starlight and dissipated by the powerful Source Qi.

The wind was so strong that Xu Yuan, who was standing next to Xia Qing, subconsciously took a half step back.

But he only took half a step, because he saw the expression on the face of the young woman who had undergone the Mortal Shedding.

Xia Qing's eyes shimmered with a cherry-pink glow, her jade-like hands clutching the clothes at her chest. Her breathing became increasingly rapid, her voluptuous curves undulating, and a sickly blush had taken over her fair and delicate face.

In just a breath,

Wearing a golden crown and dressed in red, Xia Qing knelt on the ground, biting her full red lips tightly, her legs clamped together, her slender fingertips digging into the brown soil, as if she were frantically suppressing some desire.

With great interest, Xu Yuan's lips unconsciously curled into a smile as he watched the woman's alluring figure, which seemed to drip with moisture.

It's done.

For a moment, the empty Dao Domain was completely silent.

Xu Yuan looked at the kneeling young woman with great interest, while Tianyan stared at her coldly from a distance.

Although the battle was over, she dared not approach Xu Yuan on the ground.

That woman is now like a source of bewitching charms, her body already filled with Charm Poison. If she gets close, we'll probably all perish here.

And soon,

Xu Yuan then withdrew his gaze from the young woman and turned to look at the sky beyond the Black Domain.

There,

Xia Qing's Dao Domain began to crumble like a burst bubble.

There,

A middle-aged man is standing there, holding a sword.

Xu Yuan casually reached out and grabbed the woman kneeling beside him by the hair, lifting her up and using her as a shield in front of him, revealing half his face as he stared at Tang Ruofu in mid-air, flashing a toothy smile:

You lost.

"Now,

"I can use this auntie to threaten you now."

"."

Tang Ruofu had completely lost his previous relaxed and languid demeanor, replaced by a serious and cold aura.

Seeing that the other party remained silent, Xu Yuan smiled and teased:

"Uncle, that look you're giving me is really scary. If you keep staring at me like that, I can't guarantee this lady's safety."

While speaking,

Xu Yuan ignited a small, blood-red flame on one of his fingers and pressed it against the woman's spine acupoint in front of him.

Wherever the blood flames reached, a small hole was burned in the red dress on Xia Qing's back.

Along the central spine acupoint, Xu Yuan directly infused the Source Qi containing the Charm God Dao Rhyme into the other party's meridians.

Xia Qing's situation is different from Tianyan's.

Tianyan was poisoned by the Demon-Enchanting Cherry Blossom Poison outside the illusion, which is why it cannot be cured.

However, the Demon-Enchanting Cherry Blossom Poison Xia Qing was afflicted with was within an illusion. If left untreated, given her cultivation level, she would likely regain some of her senses soon.

He had to keep drugging her.

Looking at the scene below, Tang Ruofu's expression was so gloomy it seemed to seep into the water:

"You think you've already won?"

Upon hearing this, Xu Yuan turned his head to the side, revealing half of his face, and grinned:

"If the uncle wants to consider this aunt's life, then I should have already won."

"Hehe."

With a low chuckle, Tang Ruofu's gaze turned icy cold. "Kid, I admit you do have some tricks up your sleeve, but do you think I don't?"

Xu Yuan once again shrank back behind Xia Qing, tightening his grip on her hair slightly.

"Mmm."

Xia Qing arched her back in pain.

Hearing the other person's alluring murmurs, Xu Yuan licked his lips and chuckled.

"You mean the sword I stabbed you with, and the sword you stabbed yourself with?"

"Perhaps," Tang Ruofu said noncommittally.

"So indifferent. Tang Ruofu, where did your leisurely attitude go? And you call yourself the Sword Maniac? Tsk tsk."

As he spoke,

Xu Yuan gently breathed warm air into Xia Qing's ear, pinched her flushed cheeks, and then his large hand slowly moved down her chin, whispering:

"Hmm, I remember there's a famous technique in the Moon-Inviting Sect's musical Cultivation Method called the Nine-Tone Mystic Maiden Art. Sister, is that what you practice?"

"."

The cherry blossom pink light had completely filled Xia Qing's eyes. After a moment of silence, her gentle, watery voice carried a charming and delicate quality:

Yes, that's right.

"Puff"

Upon hearing this answer, Xu Yuan laughed and looked up at Tang Ruofu:

"Uncle, you and this lady have known each other for decades, you haven't remained celibate all this time, have you? Tsk tsk."

As he spoke, Xu Yuan tried to see a hint of anger in the other person's eyes.

Anger is a stimulant for mortals, but for cultivators it is a poison with no end.

If Tang Ruofu rushed over out of anger, he would be doomed.

Unfortunately, Xu Yuan's plan did not go as expected.

They locked eyes for a moment,

Xu Yuan shook his head in disbelief, withdrew his hand, and said loudly:

"It seems you still need to prepare your methods for a while, uncle. Since you were willing to bet with me to wait for me, how about we make a bet now?"

Tang Ruofu took a deep breath and asked:

What do you want to bet?

"Pshaw, what do you think we can still bet on right now?"

Xu Yuan chuckled, his narrow, phoenix-shaped eyes narrowing into slits, and asked in a gentle tone:

"Tang Ruofu, besides our lives, is there anything here worth betting on?"
