111: Chapter 111 Six-Tailed Silver Fox Princess Lingyue

Han Ming hovered in midair, looking down at the woman staggering toward him, a playful smile curling at the corners of his mouth.

Though her acting was decent, she wasn't truly human after all—there were still plenty of flaws.

And how could a Martial Marquis human woman survive being hunted in beast territory?

Coupled with his System scan, this woman's identity was almost certain.

[Target: Six-Tailed Silver Moon Fox]

[Age: 32 years]

[Realm: Five-Star Martial Emperor]

[Cultivation Technique: Silver Fox Nine Transformations]

[Bloodline: Descendant of the Ancient Nine-Tailed Celestial Fox (Diluted)]

[Innate Talents: Charm, Silver Fox Fire]

[Skills: Phantom Step, Silver Moon Slash, Celestial Fox Heaven-Ripping Claw]

[True Intents: Charm True Intent, Fire True Intent]

So she was a fox, and a demon fox with such perfect human form.

Han Ming thought of those action blockbusters from his past life with beast ears and fox tails, then looked at the silver fox below—fair-skinned and pitifully charming—and felt a strange restlessness stir within him.

When a beast breaks through to the eighth rank, it gains intelligence comparable to humans, can be called a Demon King, and speaks human language; breaking through to the ninth rank makes it a Demon Emperor, capable of taking human form.

But a demon is still a demon; even in human form, it can never be completely identical to a human, always retaining some of its original features.

Unless it reaches the twelfth rank, the Demon God, can it shed all its beastly traits and fully transform into a human.

"Senior, save me!" The woman threw herself in front of Han Ming, her eyes filled with terror, her voice pitiful and pleading.

A flicker of amusement passed through Han Ming's eyes. He cooperatively landed and shielded her behind him: "Miss, rest assured. With me here, these beasts won't hurt you."

The woman hid behind him, a barely perceptible smile curving at her lips.

"Roar!" The pursuing beast horde stopped before the two. At the lead, a seven-star Peak unicorn rhinoceros reared up and roared, pawing the ground, but did not immediately pounce.

Han Ming punched out.

The fist force formed a silver beam of light, tearing through the sky. The unicorn rhinoceros was pierced through the chest, its massive body crashing to the ground, kicking up clouds of dust.

Seeing this, the remaining beasts shrieked and scattered in all directions.

"Thank you, Senior, for saving my life!" The woman's voice carried a sob, her legs weakening as if she might kneel. "My name is Ji Lingyue, from Qingyun Base City. I came out to train. I never expected to encounter that wave of beasts chasing me. If not for Senior's rescue, I... I..."

As she spoke, tears fell, her shoulders trembling slightly, a picture of pitiful vulnerability.

Han Ming watched her performance quietly, sizing her up from head to toe.

She appeared in her early twenties, skin as white as snow, features so delicate they seemed almost otherworldly, a curvaceous figure, and tattered clothes revealing large patches of snow-white skin.

Her silver-white hair was loosely scattered over her shoulders, and her watery eyes shimmered with tears.

Any normal man seeing this would feel pity, wanting nothing more than to hold her close and comfort her.

The corners of Han Ming's mouth lifted slightly. He reached out to help her up, his tone gentle: "Miss, no need for such courtesy. It was just a small effort."

As Han Ming helped Ji Lingyue up, her body leaned into him, soft and boneless.

A faint, subtle fragrance emanated from her—not the scent of cosmetics, but a captivating aroma that seemed to seep from her very bones, stirring the heart.

"Senior..." She looked up, her watery eyes fixed on Han Ming, a silver light swirling deep within her pupils.

That light was soft and enchanting, making one want to sink into it at a single glance.

Her voice carried a hint of seduction, like a feather lightly brushing against the heartstrings.

Charm Domain.

Even Han Ming nearly fell for it. If he hadn't seen through this woman's true nature early and been prepared, even a Peak Martial Emperor might have been ensnared.

The Ice Essence stirred within his Sea of Consciousness, and all charm and illusions instantly vanished.

But he didn't release his own Domain to counter it. Instead, he pretended to be charmed, his eyes growing somewhat dazed as he looked at Ji Lingyue with a hint of heat.

"Lingyue, you're so beautiful."

He wanted to see what this fox was up to.

Seeing Han Ming's reaction, Ji Lingyue's eyes flickered with delight, but then a trace of reluctance flashed across her face.

Looking at Han Ming's handsome face, she felt a pang of guilt. He had been willing to save her, and his gaze had been clear from start to finish—clearly not a bad person.

But thinking of her vengeance, she gritted her teeth and made a decision, silently apologizing to him in her heart.

"Then, Senior, since I'm so beautiful, do you like me?"

Ji Lingyue intensified her charm on Han Ming, her movements somewhat clumsy as she teased him.

As the princess of the Silver Moon Fox Clan, this was her first time being so close to a man, and she couldn't help feeling nervous.

But to grow stronger quickly and avenge her mother, she had no choice.

She had obtained a secret technique from her clan's ancient texts: by merging with a man, she could use the technique to plunder his talent and strength, making them her own.

She had been secretly observing Han Ming for a while. A Martial King so young must have extraordinary talent. If she could plunder his talent, her own strength would surely soar.

Han Ming's eyes grew dazed, his breathing gradually becoming heavier, as if completely lost in the charm.

He reached out, wrapped his arm around Ji Lingyue's waist, and pulled her into his embrace.

Ji Lingyue's body stiffened slightly, a hint of panic in her eyes, but she quickly regained her seductive demeanor.

She bit her lip, raised her right hand, and silver light gathered at her fingertips. Her clothes silently slipped off.

The perfect body appeared before him, leaving Han Ming utterly stunned. Her skin was like jade, her chest full and firm, her waist so slender it seemed fragile, her flat stomach without an ounce of fat, and her long legs straight and shapely.

Han Ming felt a surge of heat rush to his head, his nose tingling, and two streams of blood uncontrollably trickled down.

In his two lifetimes, he had seen many women. In his past life, he had scrolled through countless borderline videos with ten layers of beauty filters on Douyin and Kuaishou, but compared to this fox woman, they were like fireflies versus the bright moon.

"You... you weren't charmed?"

Ji Lingyue was momentarily stunned by Han Ming's reaction, then realized and exclaimed in surprise.

Han Ming's eyes had cleared. He wiped away the nosebleed, looking at her startled expression, and lifted the corners of his mouth:

"With your level of skill, you think you can charm me?"

"Hmph, in that case, I have no choice but to kill you."

Ji Lingyue was flustered at first, then remembered that she was a Demon Emperor, while this human was only a Martial King!

Not only had her charm failed, but her body had been completely exposed.

A murderous intent flashed in Ji Lingyue's eyes. Her five fingers curled into claws, silver demonic energy condensing at her fingertips into sharp, cold light, aiming straight for Han Ming's throat.

Han Ming stood still, not moving at all.

A layer of pale blue ice crystal barrier materialized out of thin air, effortlessly blocking her full-force claw.

The demonic energy clashed with the ice crystals, producing a crisp sound, but the ice crystals remained unmoved.

"A Martial Emperor? You... you concealed your cultivation?"

Ji Lingyue's pupils contracted sharply, the shame and anger on her face instantly replaced by shock.

She was a Five-Star Demon Emperor. Though not very skilled in combat, she still possessed the Celestial Fox Bloodline. An ordinary Five-Star Martial Emperor would have died under that claw of hers.

And this young Martial King had actually blocked it?

Han Ming didn't answer. An invisible force field suddenly expanded with him at the center.

The Ice Essence and Mysteries of Water intertwined into a pale blue Domain, instantly enveloping her.

Ji Lingyue felt her body grow heavy, her movements abruptly sluggish. Her silver demonic energy was repeatedly weakened and compressed, even breathing becoming difficult.

She was horrified. This human's Domain was incredibly strong, and he had comprehended more than two True Intents. Her own Domain, containing two True Intents, was completely suppressed.

"Let me go!"

She struggled fiercely, six silver fox tails unfurling behind her, Silver Fox Fire burning at the tips, causing ripples in the Domain.

But Han Ming's Domain remained unmoved.

"Tell me! Why did you charm me just now? What is your goal?"

Han Ming ignored her struggles, calmly looking at her as he asked.

He didn't believe in free lunches. A beautiful fox woman taking an interest in him at first sight, putting on an act to reveal herself—there had to be a reason.
