50: My father attained enlightenment through desire, and you follow the path of desire; roughly speaking, I'm equivalent to your father.

After speaking, she bowed gracefully toward Jiang Yuan.

In that moment of bending, the scenery beneath the black veil was enough to make anyone's blood boil.

Jiang Yuan smiled and made a "please" gesture.

Finally, the music began.

No, that was not music.

It was a kind of demonic, decadent sound that seemed to ring directly in the depths of one's Soul, stirring up the most primitive and deepest desires in one's heart.

As this demonic sound rang out, Hu Mei moved.

Her dance was completely different from Qin Mengyao's ethereal nature and Yan Linger's fiery intensity.

It was a kind of ultimate temptation, ultimate charm.

Just a single glance was enough to make countless Cultivators with weak Dao Hearts completely sink into depravity.

"Ah..."

Below the Dao Discussion Platform, a young Cultivator had already let out an irrepressible moan; his eyes were bloodshot, his breathing heavy, and the veins on his forehead were bulging—clearly, he had already fallen into an illusion and could not extricate himself.

"Wake up!"

The Elder beside him turned pale with shock, slamming a palm onto his back; only after a surge of pure magical power poured in was he awakened from the illusion.

After the young Cultivator woke up, his face turned deathly pale, his eyes filled with lingering fear.

"Such... such terrifying charm techniques!"

This was only someone affected by the aftershocks.

And as the primary target of Hu Mei's focus, the pressure Jiang Yuan endured was even more unimaginable.

Pink mist had, at some unknown point, enveloped the entire throne.

Within the mist, it seemed as if countless naked, stunningly beautiful celestial maidens were posing for him, emitting waves of alluring moans.

Waves of exotic fragrance constantly drilled into his nostrils, stimulating his nerves and causing the Qi and blood within his body to surge uncontrollably.

Jiang Yuan only felt his body getting hotter and hotter, and a ball of evil fire rose in his lower abdomen, burning him until his mouth was dry.

He even developed an illusion, as if he had returned to his past life, back to that world of debauchery and nightly revelry.

"She's got some skill..."

Jiang Yuan licked his somewhat dry lips and thought to himself.

He could feel that this was not a simple illusion.

That power was truly affecting his physical body, stimulating his desires.

If it had been any ordinary 6th Realm Divine Ability Cultivator, they probably would have lost control long ago and turned into a wolf on the spot, pouncing on her.

Even Jiang Yuan himself felt a bit distracted.

He had to admit, this feeling was quite stimulating.

He even wondered if he should just go with the flow, pretend to be charmed by her, and then, in front of the whole world, take her?

This script seemed quite exciting too.

In the distance, the Sect Master and Elders of the Saint Demon Sect watched this scene, each of them revealing a smug smile.

"Hahaha, it's done! I knew it, there is no man in this world who can resist Mei'er's charm!"

"She is truly worthy of being the Innate Charming Bone that our sect hasn't seen in ten thousand years!"

"Once Mei'er becomes his Dao Companion and hitches onto the Jiang Family to get the Spirit Ascension Pill, our Saint Demon Sect will also give birth to a Sacred Body! At that time, let's see if those so-called righteous sects dare to look down on us!"

They seemed to have already seen the glorious future where the Saint Demon Sect would soar into the sky and stand on equal footing with the various major Holy Lands and Divine Dynasties.

Just when everyone thought that Jiang Yuan was about to sink into Hu Mei's boundless charm.

Jiang Yuan, who was on the throne, suddenly regained clarity in his eyes, which had previously been somewhat dazed.

A cold smile with a hint of mockery slowly curled at the corner of his mouth.

"Playing with fire? You're playing with fire in front of me?"

He sneered in his heart.

Wanting to use desire to control me?

You don't know that my father Attained the Dao and became an Emperor back then precisely by relying on the Myriad Dao Desire Emperor Sacred Body?

In this body of mine, flows the blood of the ancestor who toyed with desire!

Calculating it, he is equivalent to Hu Mei's father; hmm, that's very reasonable.

Jiang Yuan admitted that Hu Mei's charm technique was indeed powerful.

That power was pervasive, seemingly able to penetrate all defenses, reaching directly to the Origin of the Soul and infinitely magnifying the deepest desires in one's heart.

But unfortunately, it had no effect on him at all.

Not to mention that the Nine Orifices Exquisite Heart could make its possessor's mind clear; even without it, he had cultivated the Primordial Chaos Creation Art, an immortal technique that didn't even exist within the Jiang Family.

Dispelling charm was easy, wasn't it?

If it weren't for the fact that this Cultivation Technique was passed down via direct initiation, he would have long since given a copy to every Quasi-Emperor and Emperor of the Jiang Family.

"A bit interesting, but not much."

Jiang Yuan evaluated in his heart.

"Since you want to play, I will play along with you."

He did not immediately expose Hu Mei's trick; for a woman with such heavy schemes as Hu Mei, it would always take some effort to make her completely submit.

However, One Body Two Souls, it was still worth it.

Thinking of this, Jiang Yuan pretended to be deeply charmed, his eyes dazed and his breathing heavy.

Seeing this, Hu Mei below the Dao Discussion Platform felt a surge of joy in her heart, and the smile on her face became even more triumphant.

It's done!

This Jiang Family Imperial Son is indeed just a mortal dominated by desire!

And I thought he was something special!

She thought disdainfully in her heart, but the dance steps under her feet became even more enchanting and bolder.

The black veil on her body slipped off piece by piece with her movements, revealing large patches of snow-white, smooth skin.

The entire Dao Discussion Platform was shrouded in an atmosphere of pink ambiguity.

The various major forces watching from afar saw this scene, and each of them wore complex expressions.

"Sigh, heroes have a hard time getting past the beauty barrier; this Jiang Family Imperial Son is young after all, his Dao Heart is unstable!"

"This enchantress of the Saint Demon Sect really has remarkable means; it seems this time, she will take the top spot!"

"Hmph! Evil ways are ultimately not respectable! Even if she succeeds, we righteous sects are ashamed to be associated with her!"

Some felt pity, some felt jealousy, and some disdained Hu Mei's methods.

And the Sect Master and Elders of the Saint Demon Sect were almost ready to pop champagne to celebrate.

"Hahaha, well done! Mei'er! You are worthy of being my most proud Disciple!"

"Sect Master is wise! This time our Saint Demon Sect will soar into the sky!"

And the other Heavens Proud Daughters under the Dao Discussion Platform, looking at Jiang Yuan's appearance, each had different thoughts.

"Hmph, indeed a lecher! To be captivated by such a low-level charm technique, does he even deserve to be number one on the prodigy list?"

Yan Linger curled her lips, her eyes full of disdain and jealousy.

She disdained Jiang Yuan's willpower, but she was jealous that Hu Mei actually had a chance of success!

Princess Ji Yue of the Great Yan Divine Dynasty frowned slightly and whispered to the Imperial Uncle beside her:

"Imperial Uncle, this Jiang Yuan... looks like he has really been charmed; he won't really sink into depravity like this, will he?"

"Hard to say."

Imperial Uncle Yan shook his head, his expression grave.

"The Innate Charming Bone of the Saint Demon Sect is incomparably overbearing, pointing directly to the root of human desire. Although this Jiang Yuan has a special Physique, he is young after all, and his Cultivation is only at the 6th Realm; it is normal for him to fall for it when his Dao Heart is unstable."

"Then what should we do? Should we..."

"Wait and see."

Imperial Uncle Yan interrupted her.

"Don't forget, this is the Jiang Family. I don't believe that the people of the Jiang Family would just watch their own Imperial Son be charmed in public by a demoness."

On the other side, inside the Immortal Pavilion of the Yaochi Holy Land.

"Holy Revered Master, this... what is going on with this Jiang Family Imperial Son? It seems he has really been controlled by that demoness!" an Elder of Jade Pool said urgently.

The Yaochi Holy Master also furrowed her brows; she couldn't understand it either.

Logically speaking, since the Jiang Family dared to make such a big scene, it would be impossible for them to let Jiang Yuan make such a fool of himself.

But the situation now... could it be that this Jiang Yuan is really just an embroidered pillow, good-looking but useless?

"Revered Master,"

Qin Mengyao, who had been silent, suddenly spoke.

"Don't you think that His Highness the Imperial Son's reaction is a bit too much?"

"Too much?" The Yaochi Holy Master was stunned.

"Yes."

Qin Mengyao nodded, her clear eyes flashing with the light of wisdom.

"Given His Highness the Imperial Son's Heart-Nature, even if he were truly affected by the charm technique, he wouldn't be so pathetic. It looks more like he is... deliberately luring that demoness, making her lower her guard."

"You mean... he is acting?" The Yaochi Holy Master's heart stirred.

"I am just guessing."

Qin Mengyao did not make a definitive statement, but her intuition told her that things were definitely not as simple as they looked on the surface.

Including the fact that she was the first to take the stage; it was also because she had vaguely sensed a 'Dao' from Jiang Yuan that made her 'heart flutter'.
