Chapter 82: Bottomless
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Chen Fei cursed inwardly as he felt the sudden increase in strangeness on the mountain. It seemed that not just one but two evil creatures had appeared simultaneously.
Knowing that he couldn’t afford to encounter the evil creature, Chen Fei pushed aside the thoughts of the encounter and focused on running back to the sect’s encampment to report the news.
After running for a mile, Chen Fei felt the activity of the mark on his arm decrease, indicating that the evil creature was moving further away and couldn’t catch up to him.
Relieved, Chen Fei wiped the cold sweat from his forehead. Dealing with evil’s unpredictable abilities was always unnerving, and it reminded him of his own cultivation level, which still had room for improvement. With his powerful blood and Qi, ordinary evil creatures couldn’t come close to him.
Surveying the terrain around him, Chen Fei estimated that he had covered about half the distance back to the encampment. Another five miles, and he would reach safety.
“Young master, why are you in such a hurry on this long night?” a seductive voice echoed, and a figure appeared on a hill, blocking Chen Fei’s path.
Startled, Chen Fei realized that the mark on his arm hadn’t reacted to this presence. It wasn’t the evil creature he had encountered earlier. With this realization, Chen Fei quickly changed his appearance to resemble Xu Wangliang from Apricot Fen City.
…..
“Young Master, I feel a slight pain here. Could you come and take a look?” Shi Xueqin’s voice was enticing, and she casually revealed her shoulder, exposing her fair skin.
A low murmur echoed in Chen Fei’s ears, stirring up desire within him. His eyes clouded over, and he unconsciously started walking toward Shi Xueqin.
“Young Master is so kind, unlike the others who didn’t lift a finger to save me. I appreciate your help in advance,” Shi Xueqin said, bowing slightly with a charming smile. In Chen Fei’s eyes, it was the most beautiful smile in the world, capable of making him brave any danger.
“Bzzt!”
Suddenly, the Clear Heart Formula kicked in, and Chen Fei’s mind regained clarity. Although the seductive murmurs still lingered, with the help of the Clear Heart Formula, Chen Fei was no longer ensnared.
Chen Fei felt a cold sweat forming on his back. Not only was he bewitched, but his previous appearance had already partially reverted. If he had awakened a moment later, his true identity would have been exposed.
Without changing his steps or expression, Chen Fei maintained the same blank gaze, and the frequency of his appearance changes remained consistent.
Awhile later, Chen Fei transformed his appearance again, resembling Kuang Dingbo from the Long Rainbow Sect.
“What a handsome appearance, young master. Why did you pretend to be an old man earlier?” Shi Xueqin laughed softly, her laughter so alluring that even Chen Fei couldn’t help but feel a surge of excitement. A greedy and fanatical look appeared on his face, and he quickened his pace.
Soon, Chen Fei reached Shi Xueqin’s side. Shi Xueqin raised her right index finger slightly, and a sharp light glimmered at the tip.
“Young Master, it’s late. Did you discover anything while you were wandering outside?” Shi Xueqin leaned forward, and Chen Fei instinctively lowered his head, catching a glimpse of a bottomless abyss. His breathing grew heavier. Regardless of anything else, based on Shi Xueqin’s figure alone, Chen Fei felt that the seductive emotions he experienced were spot on.
“A few fellow disciples sensed something amiss and went out to investigate. Moreover…”
A struggle appeared on Chen Fei’s face as if he wanted to break free from the enchantment.
“Young Master, take your time. I’m listening,” Shi Xueqin said, looking straight into Chen Fei’s eyes. Her eyes were as dark as an abyss, captivating anyone who gazed into them.
“There’s also a junior brother. He’s heading… heading…”
Veins bulged on Chen Fei’s forehead, and his trembling left hand rose as if he wanted to point at a specific location.
“Where?” Shi Xueqin’s body leaned forward involuntarily, and the darkness in her eyes deepened.
“Here!”
The Clear Heart Formula surged, forcefully interrupting Shi Xueqin’s enchantment. She couldn’t help but groan.
In Chen Fei’s eyes, everything around him seemed to slow down. Shi Xueqin’s head tilted slightly backward, her hair fluttering in the air. However, her right hand instinctively swung towards Chen Fei’s head, attempting to crush his neck.
“Bang!”
With a muffled sound, Chen Fei’s Starry Night Sword blocked Shi Xueqin’s attack. The immense force sent Chen Fei flying backward, unable to withstand the impact.
“How dare you hurt me? I’ll kill you!” Shi Xueqin screamed with fury. Chen Fei didn’t even have time to withdraw the dagger before witnessing Shi Xueqin’s hand swiftly approaching his head.
“Boom!”
Chen Fei’s Starry Night Sword clashed with Shi Xueqin’s attack, but the force was overwhelming, and his entire body was forced backward.
“You think you can escape?” Shi Xueqin consumed a pill and tended to her wound, trying to stabilize it with her strength.
Logically, Shi Xueqin needed rest due to her injuries. However, she couldn’t bear to let Chen Fei escape so easily. If she didn’t kill him today, she wouldn’t be able to accept it, no matter the circumstances..
