Chapter 186: Chapter 45 No Longer Avoiding People
“Smart of you!”
After a moment of hesitation, Zhang Xuan nodded.
He wanted to see exactly how many were swayed by the 59 million Origin Currency, to take care of them all at once for good.
They thought about killing him for the bounty, and he was about to eliminate these scums one by one—to see who would be the mantis stalking the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind.
With a light press on the opponent’s abdomen, the expert’s Source Pool shattered, his cultivation went down the drain. Regardless of the man’s pain, Zhang Xuan casually threw him on the ground: “Speak, who joined forces with you to kill me?”
“It’s...”
With cold sweat on his forehead and met with the cold gaze of the other party, Li Yue’an no longer dared any concealment: “It’s Elder Feng Zhaoting...”
“As expected!” Zhang Xuan nodded.
If you were to ask who wanted to kill him the most in Han Yuan City, this man would definitely top the list.
Competing for the position of Vice Hall Master, killing his own brother, obliterating Unnecessary Hall and framing others... each and every act was unforgivable. It was already very patient of him to have tolerated it until now.
“Lead the way ahead!”
After confirming the agreed location with the other party, Zhang Xuan, not wanting to waste words, tossed him into the carriage.
“What about him?”
Fu Yingying pointed to Fan Xing, who was lying on the ground already injured.
Zhang Xuan had caught this man attempting to flee while he was dealing with Li Yue’an.
Being at the pinnacle of the Divine Soul Realm, taking care of an opponent in Viscera Realm was a piece of cake.
“Cultivating Betrayal Destiny, colluding with your master to harm others, keeping you would just be inviting disaster. Killing you is...”
“Don’t kill me, I’m willing to be your ox, your horse...” His face deathly pale, Fan Xing no longer had his earlier aloofness.
“Be my ox, my horse? I’d be afraid of you betraying me...”
Not wanting to engage in idle talk, Zhang Xuan gave a light pat, and before this Viscera Realm fellow could react, he had already stopped breathing.
Just like Yu Qingyu, they both were traitors. There was nothing about them that warranted sympathy.
As the carriage moved forward, looking at Ling Buyang in front of her, Fu Yingying could no longer contain herself: “I have dealt with Elder Ling before. He might be a bit lecherous and somewhat weak, but most importantly, his strength is only in the Travel Realm. He couldn’t possibly be a match for Li Yue’an. Who... exactly are you? Could it be that you also used the disguise of the Painting Sect, donning a Painting Skin to look like him?”
She had been suspicious since their first encounter, and this experience had only confirmed her suspicions.
People can change, but not this drastically. It was impossible!
Zhang Xuan didn’t respond but looked back perplexedly: “Painting Sect?”
“Just like the Wanxiang Sect, it was founded by a Fate Master adept in the Painting Dao. All the paintings are indistinguishable from reality, and the Painting Skins can disguise someone as any identity, undetectable even by their closest kin... Li Yue’an was using one just now, which is why I didn’t notice!”@@@@
Fu Yingying explained.
Zhang Xuan had an epiphany.
This Painting Sect sounded similar to the Painting Dao of the Master Teacher Continent, yet it was not quite the same. The latter was only about painting, while the former seemed to also encompass the abilities of a disguiser.
With a thought flashing through his mind, Zhang Xuan curiously asked: “So you mean to say, if you put on a painting, you can change your appearance... What if the painting is of a donkey, a horse?”
Fu Yingying nodded: “Naturally, you’ll become a horse, a donkey!”
Zhang Xuan was astonished: “That’s quite impressive!”
Even the greatest Disguise Talent would only allow one to take on the form of an animal; if a mere painting from the other side could accomplish this, it seemed that this Painting Sect was more formidable than he had imagined. The Painting Dao Fate was also astonishing.
“If you don’t know about the Painting Sect, how did you get the Painting Skin?”
Seeing that he seemed clueless, Fu Yingying was puzzled.
If it were just the previous Ling Buyang who couldn’t be seduced, then so be it, but now this man had defeated Li Yue’an, who possessed a Primordial Spirit, with a single move, and his strength was almost at the pinnacle of Han Yuan City. Once he followed her commands, who else was there to fear?
“Do you really want to do as I say? It’ll be quite tough to follow my orders, you know~~” Fu Yingying continued to employ her Charming Skill, exhaling like an orchid, her voice like a whisper, captivating souls.
As she was pushing her strength to the limit, a lowered voice came from beside her, “Enough talk, just try to see if you can break through!”
“...” Fu Yingying was stunned.
After all this time, it was all an act!
What exactly was his purpose?
Although frustrated, she knew it wasn’t the time to ponder, and she stirred her Spirit, connecting with the world.
Whir!
As expected, streams of Heavenly Mandate Vitality flowed towards her.
“It really works...” Zhang Xuan’s eyes lit up as he hurried to absorb it.
The amount was not too great, just a few hundred strands.
But even a small mosquito is still meat, and sometimes a few hundred strands can be of great use.
“Huh?”
Seeing the power she had wanted to absorb disappear in the blink of an eye, Fu Yingying was puzzled when the Elder Ling opposite her commanded again, “Continue to seduce me, continue to draw forth the power to break through!”
Fu Yingying had no choice but to seduce him diligently, her fingers wandering over her body, occasionally emitting a series of soft tremblings.
Zhang Xuan continued to bow with clasped fists, his face resolute: “I am willing to go through fire and water for you, without any hesitation...”
After seven or eight times, just as Fu Yingying was covered in sweat and feeling somewhat drained, Zhang Xuan waved his hand.
“Alright, stop, it’s no use...”
This kind of false submissiveness indeed could ‘fleece the sheep’, allowing for some Heavenly Mandate Vitality to descend from the Source World, but with too many attempts, it lost efficacy.
It seemed that the other party was not foolish enough to allow such false advertising to continue.
“Anyway, I’ve earned over three thousand strands...” Zhang Xuan wore a satisfied expression.
With nothing else to do, and on the way, letting her employ her Charming Skill had indeed earned him quite a bit... Over three thousand strands of Heavenly Mandate Vitality, enough for reading more than three thousand books.
“What... what exactly are you doing?”
Fu Yingying saw that she had been calling out all the way, and her thighs and chest were almost rubbed bald, yet the other party was not only unaffected by the seduction but also completely lucid, making her feel rather unwell.
Pfft!
Just then, a mouthful of fresh blood was spat out, and her aura rapidly declined, plummeting directly from the pinnacle of the Spiritual Perception realm to the advanced stage.
Failure of the Charming Skill resulted in backlash.
Zhang Xuan felt somewhat embarrassed.
He had thought he was just fleecing some wool, but it turned out the price was paid by this Fu Yingying...
“It’s nothing, just had something on my mind that I wanted to test, and now I’ve pretty much figured it out...”
Zhang Xuan had no intention of explaining. Even if he wanted to, she would not believe it.
Normally, Heavenly Mandate Vitality attracted by other destinies could not be absorbed by outsiders, but Zhang Xuan, with the Library of Heaven’s Path, was a bug that could not only absorb it freely, but also at a ridiculously quick rate, which would be hard for anyone to accept.
While the two conducted experiments inside the carriage, Li Yue’an, who was driving the horses outside, felt so depressed he wanted to cry.
He had thought that with his breakthrough in strength, he would easily be able to slay this Ling Buyang, but he never dreamed it would end like this.
What was key was that while he was driving outside, inside, there was a continuous stream of moans and groans...
He already knew Ling Buyang was lecherous but never dreamed he was this lecherous, straight up causing a ruckus on the road. Was he no longer avoiding people at all?
