28: Chapter 0028 Suspicion Arises

Hehuan Peak.

"What's the deal with the four fans?"

"Are you having a secret affair with that woman named Hong Tao?"

Gu Huan was pinned to a chair by Liu Zhu and interrogated. In any other setting, she wouldn't dare act like this, or her backside would be in for a beating.

But this was in front of Qin Yao.

Relying on her Senior Sister's favor, what was wrong with bullying a Cauldron?

Especially since Hong Tao was truly good-looking and was Li Yunlu's maid; Liu Zhu disliked her most of all.

"Four fans are just four fans. I'm innocent with her; there's no affair," Gu Huan explained.

Gu Huan explained.

With Qin Yao right there, he didn't dare to act out.

Having received a clear answer, Liu Zhu shamelessly tried to take credit from Qin Yao.

"Senior Sister, I've asked him. He hasn't had any illicit relations with Li Yunlu's maid, and it's confirmed they're not in league together."

"I heard you. Bring him over!"

"Move it!"

Liu Zhu didn't give him any Face at all.

She was afraid Qin Yao would see through the situation.

"I ask you, where did they take you?"

Gu Huan stood before Qin Yao and answered respectfully, "To the Rocky Barrens east of the Sect."

"Then how did you get back?"

"It couldn't be that Zhou Guanlian's heart softened and she let you come back, could it?"

At this moment.

Qin Yao was most afraid of hearing an affirmative answer.

Because the prerequisite for that answer was that Zhou Guanlian had obtained Gu Huan's body.

This was the only reasonable explanation she could think of; otherwise, with his Qi Refining level six cultivation, how could he return to the Hehuan Sect unscathed?

"Of course not."

"I came back on my own."

His words were shocking, and Qin Yao was stunned on the spot.

Liu Zhu knew Gu Huan's true strength. Looking at the oblivious Qin Yao, she was laughing inwardly.

"There were six of them; how were you able to return?"

Qin Yao found it hard to believe and felt it was impossible.

To this,

Gu Huan had already thought of a countermeasure.

"Master may not know, but Liu He and the other two were blinded by lust. Seeing the beauty of Zhou Guanlian and the other two women, and being out in the wild without restraint, they developed wicked thoughts of violating them."

"Zhou Guanlian and Li Yunlu's maid were naturally unwilling. Both sides fought and ended up perishing together."

Qin Yao was dumbfounded.

Liu Zhu was speechless.

This reason was so casual; it felt like it wouldn't hold up!

However, the two of them tacitly did not press further, though their thoughts on the matter differed.

"To survive such a disaster is your good fortune."

"The Hehuan Sect is a major Sect of the Demonic Path, advocating that the strong prey on the weak and strength is respected. This is slightly different from the Sects of the Righteous Path, so you needn't worry about the Enforcement Hall coming to your door."

Gu Huan nodded.

This was the reason he dared to return to the Hehuan Sect.

As long as a Hehuan Disciple didn't die within the Sect or have evidence presented against them in person, the Enforcement Hall would turn a blind eye.

"It has been hard on you today. Go and adjust your breathing to recover. I will see Junior Sister Liu out."

"Yes, Master."

Gu Huan took his leave of the two women and returned to his cultivation room to sit cross-legged, his eyes flickering.

"As expected, I couldn't fool her. She's already suspicious."

"Forget it, cultivation is more important."

Gu Huan had no desire to guess what Qin Yao was thinking. He summoned the Mystic Blood Diamond and nurtured it with his own Essence Blood. A single drop fell, and a bloody flash of light passed over it as the Magical Artifact's power increased slightly.

"It really can advance into a top-grade Magical Artifact. I just don't know how much Essence Blood it will need to devour?"

"But no matter how much, it doesn't matter. I have plenty of Essence Blood."

After nurturing the blood diamond,

Gu Huan immediately threw himself into cultivation.

...

On the other side.

After seeing off Liu Zhu, Qin Yao returned to her bedroom alone and sat quietly on the edge of the bed.

Recalling what Gu Huan had said tonight, she didn't believe a single word of it.

Claiming they perished together...

It was complete nonsense.

Li Yunlu coveted her body and wanted Gu Huan's life even more; she would never easily come into conflict with Liu He.

"Liu He at Qi Refining level ten, Zhou Guanlian at Qi Refining level nine, plus four helpers... and yet this didn't put you in danger, and you returned without a scratch."

"Just how much longer do you plan to lie to me?"

The night passed in silence.

The next day.

Qin Yao took her Disciple token and left Hehuan Peak.

When she reappeared, she had already arrived at the Sect's main hall, requesting to check the usage of contribution points.

After waiting for a while,

The clerk Disciple handed her a piece of paper.

Qin Yao browsed it carefully, only checking the instances where Gu Huan had used contribution points.

What she saw shocked her; this fellow had actually spent all of her contribution points to exchange for the Demon Form Secret Art and some Medicinal Pills.

"Even Foundation Establishment Cultivators aren't qualified to Cultivate this Demonic Technique. What did he exchange it for?"

"Those are my contribution points! He really doesn't feel any sting when spending them, does he!"

"He didn't leave a single point for me. Heartless."

Qin Yao was full of resentment.

The white paper spontaneously combusted without any wind.

She returned to her Immortal Cave immediately, originally intending to give him a good scolding to vent her anger, but when she stood before the cultivation room, she suddenly softened and lost her nerve.

"Instead of scolding him, it's better to humiliate him through Plucking."

"Come out now, I want to Cultivate."

Qin Yao shouted in annoyance.

Hearing the commotion, Gu Huan did not dare to delay and immediately walked out of the cultivation room.

What met his eyes was Qin Yao's exquisite beauty, along with a strong sense of resentment.

"Yes, Master."

Gu Huan took a step forward, only to see Qin Yao standing motionless with her arms crossed, knowing she was angry.

At a time like this, he certainly couldn't leave her be. He turned and swept her up in his arms, carrying her all the way to the bed.

He set her down gently.

As if afraid she might break.

Despite such tenderness, Qin Yao only stared with wide eyes and remained motionless.

"Master, how are you going to Cultivate like this?"

"Why can't I Cultivate? Do I need to teach you hand-in-hand?"

He shook his head.

He felt that Qin Yao was particularly strange today.

Since she was unwilling to move, Gu Huan had no choice but to take action himself.

He knew the structure of her dress like the back of his hand, and it was as easy as peeling an onion.

Gradually.

The clothing on Qin Yao's body grew less and less.

With only two pieces of intimate undergarments remaining, her snowy, soft skin was wonderfully seductive, flushed with a charming pink glow, and her stunning Face was even more crimson and beautiful.

"Master."

"Do you want me to continue undressing you?"

Gu Huan teased.

Although Qin Yao was a Hehuan Enchantress, she didn't like Gu Huan touching her undergarments; every time, they were removed from her body by her own hands.

This time,

If Qin Yao continued to hold out,

Gu Huan promised he wouldn't be polite with her.

"Then continue."

Qin Yao's gaze was frighteningly calm.

Gu Huan was slightly taken aback; he hadn't expected her to actually agree.

Gulp!

Looking at the natural beauty within reach.

The feeling she gave him now was more unusual than before, as if their mutual trust had deepened.

"Hesitating?"

"Yes, I don't understand Master's behavior today."

Even so,

Gu Huan's movements didn't pause for a second.

He simply shifted from Qin Yao's body to his own, unhurriedly stripping off his green robe.

"You don't understand me."

"But then, do I understand you?"

Qin Yao spoke.

It seemed nonsensical, but there was a subtext to her words.

"Since you don't understand, then don't look. Let's get to work!"

Gu Huan was ready. He leaned down and was about to kiss Qin Yao's lips when he was stopped by her slender finger. Her skin was as delicate as a peach and gradually stained with crimson, but her eyes were cold and serious.

"You really won't say?"

"I won't. What can you do to me?"

"You..."

Seeing Gu Huan's arrogant attitude, Qin Yao was so angry her willow-like brows stood on end.

She thrust her arms forward and pushed Gu Huan down, then flipped over to take charge and straddled him, aggressively questioning him once more.

"I'll ask you one last time, will you say it or not?"

"I just won't say it."

Gu Huan was triumphant.

He wasn't afraid at all of Qin Yao getting serious.

In order to plunder the Ultimate Demonic Qi, she wouldn't be willing to kill Gu Huan. At most, she would put extra effort into the Plucking to make him pay a heavy price.

However.

The more effort she put in,

The happier Gu Huan felt in his heart.

Anyway, the lost cultivation would eventually be returned in double. With this divine technique protecting him, what did he have to fear from her?

Besides.

It wasn't certain who would be the one begging for mercy in the end!

"Good, good, good. You forced me. I'll Pluck you to death!!"
