19: Chapter 19 He delivered himself to their door.

"Young Master, it's getting late, you should get some rest too!"

By evening, since they hadn't come across any small towns or the like, the two had no choice but to make do with a cave they found.

After saying this to Yuan Chen, Lu Mingming found a corner for herself, busily gathering some dried grass to lie down on.

After she finished, Yuan Chen also found a spot and sat down, half-reclining. He then narrowed his eyes.

In truth, he had a quilt inside his storage ring. However, seeing that this little deer was so naive and silly, he didn't bother to reveal his identity.

It was unclear how much time had passed, but a rustling sound emerged from the darkness.

Under the observation of Yuan Chen's Divine Sense, Lu Mingming carefully approached him.

Yuan Chen continued to feign sleep. He wanted to see what kind of mischief she was up to.

To his surprise, after taking two steps forward, she began to carefully unbutton his clothes. She even stuck out her little tongue and licked her lips with a spirited expression.

When she had pulled them halfway down, she seemed to remember something. She gently exhaled a breath onto Yuan Chen's face.

Yuan Chen immediately felt a faint, delicate fragrance drift into his nostrils. It must have been some kind of sleeping drug.

However, given her strength, it wouldn't have any effect on him.

After finishing what the Fox Sister had instructed, a faint smile appeared on Lu Mingming's face. She clapped her hands in excitement. "Done!"

Then, her movements quickened. Before long, she had stripped off all of Yuan Chen's clothing.

"What now?"

"How was I supposed to absorb the life essence again?"

"Fox Sister told me, but I forgot. I'm so stupid."

Standing before Yuan Chen, Lu Mingming muttered in frustration.

Yuan Chen, pretending to be unconscious, almost couldn't hold back from slapping her.

Now he understood. So, she wanted to rob him of his virtue. That made sense. Wild demons couldn't obtain Heaven And Earth Treasure to improve their strength, so they could only cultivate through this method.

He had intended to find an opportunity to take her under his wing. He hadn't expected her thoughts to align with his own. She had actually delivered herself to his doorstep.

However, it was clear that this was Lu Mingming's first time doing this. She had reached the doorstep, yet she didn't know the next steps. Should he play along properly?

"It seems to be..."

Fortunately, the memory of demons wasn't abysmal, and before long, Lu Mingming found the correct way to proceed.

And Yuan Chen naturally... was taken advantage of while drugged!

Lu Mingming lay exhausted on top of Yuan Chen. A surge of Origin Qi instantly flooded into her body. She clearly felt her own strength had greatly improved.

The deer was slightly stunned. Was it this effective? It seemed even more powerful than what the Fox Sister had described.

"How long has it been since you took human form?"

Just as she was feeling happy about her increase in strength, a voice sounded from beneath her.

"Two months!"

Lu Mingming didn't react in time and answered naively.

After she finished speaking, she felt terrible. She turned to look at Yuan Chen in disbelief.

She saw Yuan Chen staring at her unblinkingly with his beautiful eyes. At this moment, Yuan Chen's hands were placed on her back.

After finishing, he felt Lu Mingming's entire back stiffen. Yuan Chen gently patted it.

"Relax!"

He then immediately asked, "How old are you this year?"

Lu Mingming stared blankly at Yuan Chen. She asked in confusion, "Why didn't you fall unconscious?"

Yuan Chen smiled. "Is it possible that I am a Cultivator?"

After saying this, he amusedly looked Lu Mingming over. Lu Mingming was still lying on Yuan Chen, motionless.

After being stunned for a moment, she jumped up like a startled rabbit. Without a word, she turned and ran. She didn't even put her clothes back on.

But after running only two steps, Yuan Chen grabbed her leg and hauled her back. He pulled her into his embrace.

"What are you running for!"

Restrained by Yuan Chen, Lu Mingming immediately quieted down. She was terrified that any action might annoy the adult nearby.

With her pitiful big eyes wide open, she pleaded, "Sir, I was wrong!"

She secretly lamented in her heart. She hadn't expected to be so unlucky on her first day out working.

However, she remembered the Fox Sister's words. If she encountered a powerful Cultivator, she shouldn't resist; she should just beg for mercy. And also...

"Sir, spare my life."

"I have never harmed the life of a human."

However, Yuan Chen didn't listen to her explanation. He said again, "You haven't answered my previous question."

Lu Mingming thought for a long time before she remembered what he was referring to. She immediately said.

"One year and four months old."

"I ate a fruit before, and I just took human form two months ago."

Yuan Chen fell into deep thought. So she had just reached adulthood.

Sika deer that hadn't become demons would reach adulthood in about a year to a year and a half. Counting the time for transformation, Lu Mingming was exactly at the stage of just reaching adulthood.

Seeing that Yuan Chen wasn't speaking, Lu Mingming worried that he was thinking about how to deal with her. She hurriedly explained again.

"I really have never harmed anyone!"

Yuan Chen shifted his gaze to her. After pondering for a moment, he asked, "Do you still want to continue improving your strength?"

Lu Mingming was stunned. She asked tentatively, "Is that possible?"

Yuan Chen smiled and nodded. "Of course you can."

Lu Mingming was immediately overjoyed. She said gratefully, "Okay! Okay!"

After saying this, she added, "You are a good person!"

She had heard from Fox Sister that every time they improved their strength, it would cause a certain amount of damage to the target. Although the harm wasn't too great, a few months of weakness was certain.

She hadn't expected Yuan Chen to be so nice! Not only was he not angry after she deceived him, but he was also going to help her improve her strength.

Of course, she couldn't refuse this. She wanted to quickly become a master of this forest. That way, no one would dare to eat her.

Thinking of this, she immediately wanted to get up.

"Wait!"

Yuan Chen pressed her down. He then took out a set of bedding from his storage ring.

To tell the truth, dried grass was stimulating, but it was just a bit uncomfortable. He had originally brought the bedding, intending to find an opportunity to try it out with his other wives. This little deer was getting a bargain.

Seeing a quilt abruptly appear in front of Yuan Chen, Lu Mingming's eyes widened instantly. She then stared curiously at Yuan Chen's ring.

Noticing her gaze, Yuan Chen reached out and waved his hand in front of her. "A Storage Ring, an independent space that can hold some things."

"Do you want one?"

He wasn't surprised that she didn't know about the Storage Ring. In the Chaotic Star Sea, Storage Rings were dime-a-dozen items.

But in the Human Realm, this could truly be considered a treasure. He believed that the number of people in the entire Great Yan Dynasty who possessed a Storage Ring could be counted on both hands.

Lu Mingming's eyes lit up. She then nodded without hesitation.

Yuan Chen casually took out a ring and gave it to her. Yuan Chen then took the initiative, enthusiastically helping Lu Mingming improve her strength. At the same time, the fixed-target pill was also used.
