Almost Crossing the Line

"Martial aunt, why don't you try first this time?"

Ye Fei spoke sheepishly.

He didn't dare try so casually again. If something else went wrong, he would be in trouble.

Jiang Mengyun said nothing, merely nodding gently.

Then she closed her eyes and tried to move the fragments of text with her divine sense.

"You'd better do it."

A moment later, Jiang Mengyun opened her eyes, looking somewhat awkward.

She had just tried, but as on the first floor, her divine sense still couldn't move the fragments an inch.

"All right."

Helpless, Ye Fei could only steel himself and get on with it.

With their previous experience, things went much more smoothly this time. Although there were considerably more characters than before, the two of them finished in just one day.

"It hurts!"

When the golden light entered Ye Fei's brow, he clutched his head and cried out in pain again.

"I hope you behave yourself this time."

Seeing Ye Fei's agony, Jiang Mengyun sighed helplessly and once again removed an undergarment.

Within a few breaths, Ye Fei stood before Jiang Mengyun, his gaze entranced and saliva dripping from his mouth.

"So big! So round!"

Just like last time, Ye Fei stared fixedly at Jiang Mengyun's full breasts.

"Close your eyes."

Jiang Mengyun snapped the command. With a sweep of her delicate hand, she tore a strip of cloth from her robe and tied it over Ye Fei's eyes.

Although his eyes were covered, Ye Fei's nose remained keen.

"Mmm! So fragrant!"

He took a deep breath, sniffing hard at Jiang Mengyun's scent on the cloth, utterly intoxicated.

"Ah!"

Seeing him like this, Jiang Mengyun nearly broke down.

Had Ye Fei not been Luo Yue and Ye Canglong's son, she probably would have punched him to death long ago.

Fortunately, this didn't last long before Ye Fei finished receiving the insights.

The moment the stairs to the fourth floor appeared, Jiang Mengyun put her undergarment back on without the slightest hesitation.

Then, without waiting for Ye Fei to regain his senses, she went straight up to the fourth floor.

Half an incense stick later, Ye Fei finally came around.

Looking around the third floor, where he alone remained, Ye Fei shook his head helplessly and cautiously climbed to the fourth floor.

Jiang Mengyun was sitting cross-legged at the edge of the fourth floor with her eyes closed, paying no attention to Ye Fei's arrival.

When Ye Fei saw that the fourth floor was the same as the second,

he sat down cross-legged and began studying the formation insights he had just received.

By now, he understood that the Array God Tower was nurturing an Array God Successor.

For some reason, he had become that so-called Array God Successor.

The first and third floors allowed the successor to receive the Array God's legacy.

The second and fourth floors tested the successor, determining whether he had fully integrated his knowledge of formations.

In truth, these were all the most basic formations, no more than elementary formations at best.

Jiang Mengyun couldn't unravel them because the Formation God Hall's system of formations was entirely different from what she had learned.

These were ancient formations, far beyond anything modern formations could compare with.

Three days later, Ye Fei successfully finished absorbing those formation insights.

With more insights this time, he had needed a whole extra day.

With the formation insights from the third floor, the fourth floor's test posed no difficulty whatsoever for Ye Fei.

A quarter of an hour later, he successfully reached the fifth floor of the Array God Tower.

"More character puzzles!"

When his divine sense detected the densely packed fragments of characters on the tower walls, Ye Fei couldn't help smiling wryly.

With no other choice, he settled his mind and worked hard to piece them together.

Fortunately, Jiang Mengyun came up shortly afterward, so he wasn't left fighting this battle alone.

Two days later, all the broken characters had been pieced together.

"Ah!"

Ye Fei clutched his head and cried out in pain again.

This time, it was far worse than the previous two times.

He collapsed to the floor and began rolling around.

Seeing this, Jiang Mengyun dared not hesitate and hurriedly removed her undergarment again.

"So fragrant... Ah! It hurts so much!"

This time, even under the intoxicating influence of that peculiar fragrance, Ye Fei could still feel the pain tearing at his soul.

Enduring the terrible pain, Ye Fei struggled to his feet. His eyes were bloodshot, and with the golden light at his brow sinking into his body bit by bit, he looked rather ferocious.

His gaze as he stared at Jiang Mengyun brimmed with possessiveness.

"It hurts so much!"

But that look lasted only a moment before he clutched his head and cried out in pain again.

What should I do?

Looking at the still-lengthy stream of golden light, Jiang Mengyun grew anxious.

There were clearly far more insights this time than on the previous two occasions, and her earlier method was plainly no longer very effective.

She had considered knocking Ye Fei unconscious, but feared that doing so would interfere with his reception of the insights.

While Jiang Mengyun hesitated, Ye Fei, who had been crying out relentlessly, suddenly stopped howling. His body began trembling violently, and he swayed, about to crumple to the floor.

Clearly, Ye Fei could no longer endure it.

"Ye Fei, you have to hold on!"

At the sight, Jiang Mengyun's heart trembled. She hurried forward and supported Ye Fei's arm, anxiety written all over her face.

But just then, she suddenly felt something tighten around her waist. Ye Fei's other powerful arm pulled her fiercely into his embrace.

"What are you doing!"

Jiang Mengyun cried out in alarm and struggled hard, trying to break free.

But her cultivation was suppressed in the Secret Realm, and she couldn't break free from the frenzied Ye Fei.

"Ye Fei, I'm your martial aunt, you..."

Unable to free herself, Jiang Mengyun shouted, hoping to wake Ye Fei. But she had barely uttered a sentence when her whole body went weak, leaving her unable to make another sound.

At some point, a large hand had already closed around one of her round globes.

Feeling Ye Fei's strong palm, Jiang Mengyun could no longer control herself, and her body began trembling.

For some reason, she too had lost control of herself.

Just as Ye Fei was about to cross the final line, a tear slipped from the corner of Jiang Mengyun's eye, and she slowly closed her eyes.

The instant Ye Fei, still lost in his frenzy, saw the tear at the corner of Jiang Mengyun's eye, he abruptly came to his senses. He hurriedly released both hands and shoved Jiang Mengyun hard out of his embrace.

"Ah!"

Thrown off balance, Jiang Mengyun cried out and fell to the floor.

Meanwhile, Ye Fei endured the desire and terrible pain within him, staggering aside before curling up on the floor, clutching his head and howling in agony.

Fortunately, little of the light remained. In just a dozen or so breaths, it had vanished completely into Ye Fei's brow.

The instant that pain disappeared, Ye Fei's vision blurred, and he passed out.

By then, Jiang Mengyun had also risen from the floor.

Looking at the unconscious Ye Fei, she felt a tumult of conflicting emotions.

With a wave of her hand, she put her undergarment back on, then slowly walked over to Ye Fei.

"What a cursed entanglement!"

Jiang Mengyun sighed softly.

This time, she didn't feed Ye Fei a pill. Instead, she sat quietly beside him, waiting for him to wake naturally.

Her willow-leaf brows were slightly knitted, and a hint of bewilderment lingered in her eyes.

She didn't understand why, faced with those large hands, she had felt no desire to resist at all.

She felt ashamed of her own reaction.

After all, in her eyes, Ye Fei was merely a child.

But now that something like this had happened, how was she supposed to face him?

She didn't believe this was Ye Fei's fault. On the contrary, Ye Fei had saved her.

Had Ye Fei not suddenly come to his senses, they might already have made an irrevocable mistake.

Would I still have the courage to go on living then?

"It hurts."

Just as Jiang Mengyun's thoughts tangled together, Ye Fei, lying beside her, suddenly cried out in pain again.
