375: Son of the True Dragon

The jade-like hand was snowy white and tender, appearing as if it would break at a touch, yet the Five Elements Life and Death Sword Light, which was enough to destroy all things, could not harm it in the slightest.

"Buzz~"

The heavenly origin sword vibrated frantically but could not break free. Liu Xuan felt as if there was an indestructible wall in front of him; no matter how much force he used, it was useless.

The jade hand slowly reached forward, revealing a slender wrist, followed by a woman in a pink silk dress—it was the Peach Blossom Demon Lord.

'Fuck!!'

'Didn't they say the Peach Blossom Demon Lord's true body couldn't leave the Peach Blossom Sect? Then who is this appearing now?'

To make it so that Liu Xuan couldn't even harm a single finger of hers despite giving it his all, even an ordinary Nascent Soul Early Stage True Monarch couldn't achieve that.

The Peach Blossom Demon Lord did not conceal her aura. Without needing to use the Eye of Delusion Breaking, one could see the Demonic Qi on her as vast as an ocean; this was undoubtedly her true body.

"Early Golden Core Stage Realm, yet with the explosive power of a Nascent Soul Early Stage, mastery of a Five Elements Perfection Divine Ability, mastery of Tier 4 True Fire, and a Physical Body strength exceeding the Peak Golden Core..."

"Are you Liu Xuan?"

Liu Xuan was panicking, and the Peach Blossom Demon Lord was also panicking. Knowing that there might be a super powerful figure behind Liu Xuan, she still decided to come and see for herself.

Her time was running out. The Peach Blossom Sect battlefield had to end within a few years. Even if Liu Xuan's side was a trap, she had to come and take a look as soon as possible.

Liu Xuan put away the heavenly origin sword, his Essence Blood power and mana returning to his Golden Core, reverting to his previous appearance of an ordinary Young Master.

"I am Liu Xuan. Greetings, Peach Blossom Demon Lord!"

As he spoke, an invisible butterfly phantom emerged from the space between Liu Xuan's eyebrows. He then stared intently into the Peach Blossom Demon Lord's eyes. If she could discover the Love Gu, he would claim it was just an ordinary defensive Gu; if she didn't, Liu Xuan was going to take a big gamble!

[Love Gu: When used on a member of the opposite sex whose cultivation is within two major Realms higher than the Host, the target will find the Host pleasing to the eye.]

Liu Xuan was currently only at the Early Golden Core Stage, while the Peach Blossom Demon Lord's Realm had reached the Late Nascent Soul Stage, more than one major Realm higher.

Unfortunately, if Liu Xuan's cultivation could reach the Late Golden Core Stage and the gap between their Realms was narrowed to within one major Realm, he could make the Peach Blossom Demon Lord develop a favorable impression of him, preventing her from actively harming him and making her willing to help him.

With a gap of within two major Realms, the effect would only make her find Liu Xuan pleasing to the eye. What kind of "pleasing to the eye" was this? Liu Xuan had no idea.

'Who cares what it means? I'll know once I try!'

The Love Gu could only be used once, but its effect was not fixed; it would strengthen as Liu Xuan's cultivation improved. Unless the Peach Blossom Demon Lord's cultivation speed exceeded Liu Xuan's, she would succumb sooner or later.

Moreover, Liu Xuan had no choice now. Once the Peach Blossom Demon Lord flew into a rage, he could revive through the Red Pine Sect Star Space Essence Blood Incarnation, but his children in the city would suffer.

Just as Liu Xuan was preparing to control the Love Gu to act, the Peach Blossom Demon Lord swayed her hips and walked toward him.

Liu Xuan was startled but tried his best to keep his expression unchanged. The Love Gu lay motionless between his eyebrows.

"Are you nervous?" The Peach Blossom Demon Lord reached out her snowy white jade hand, wanting to touch his face.

Liu Xuan simultaneously reached out and grabbed her hand, smiling. "How could I not be nervous seeing a beauty like you?"

The Peach Blossom Demon Lord was stunned! She was surprised by Liu Xuan's boldness, but considering the background Liu Xuan might have, she didn't mind. Her terrifying Late Nascent Soul Stage Divine Sense entered his body through his hand.

"You..."

The moment her Divine Sense entered Liu Xuan's body, the Peach Blossom Demon Lord's pretty face changed drastically. "You're not human; you're actually a Yao!!"

Besides mana, Liu Xuan's body contained a terrifyingly vast amount of Essence Blood power, which shared the same source as Demonic Qi. Especially that Golden Core—his Essence Blood was like a furnace, with a black Kunpeng and a golden divine dragon swimming around the Golden Core. Those were not phantoms, but actual manifestations of Essence Blood!

The Peach Blossom Demon Lord's heart shook violently. She felt a strong Bloodline suppression from Liu Xuan's Golden Core. Even though the gap in their cultivation Realms was nearly two major Realms, she actually felt a hint of submission.

At that moment, unbeknownst to her, a faint pink illusory butterfly flew to her brow and silently merged into it.

"Alright!" Liu Xuan brushed off the Peach Blossom Demon Lord's hand. "Investigating someone's background as soon as you arrive—does the Demon Lord know how impolite such behavior is?"

The Peach Blossom Demon Lord was in no mood to care about that now. She stared fixedly at Liu Xuan and asked, "Who exactly are you?"

The Yao Race Bloodline Rank in Liu Xuan's body was too high! And its concentration was also extremely high. If the Essence Blood in Immortal Master Gu Sha's body was merely related to a Divine Beast, then Liu Xuan was the biological son of a Divine Beast.

Such a Bloodline could never have appeared out of thin air. Liu Xuan's parents must be extra-planar powerhouses, at least existences at the Immortal Realm.

'If I can cling to the thigh of a Divine Beast powerhouse through Liu Xuan, why would I still risk my life to gamble for that sliver of Soul Transformation Opportunity?'

With this thought, the way the Peach Blossom Demon Lord looked at Liu Xuan changed, shifting from the initial wariness and curiosity to anticipation and desire.

'Is the Love Gu's effect this good?'

Liu Xuan didn't know the Peach Blossom Demon Lord's true thoughts. Seeing her expression change right after using it, he thought it was all thanks to the Love Gu.

In that case, Liu Xuan's courage immediately grew. He said loudly, "This seat is Liu Xuan, the Son of the True Dragon!"

With a disdainful expression, he gave the Peach Blossom Demon Lord a faint glance. "My Dragon Clan is the essence of heaven and earth, the ancestor of all Yao. None in the heavens or myriad worlds dare to be disrespectful!"

"Today you have offended this seat for no reason. Have you considered the consequences?"

By the end of his speech, Liu Xuan even believed it himself. A domineering aura naturally radiated from him, as if he didn't care about the Peach Blossom Demon Lord at all.

He indeed had the right to be confident. Firstly, he had an Incarnation and could be resurrected. Secondly, he had the System, a Heaven-Defying object outside the rules. Calling himself the Son of the True Dragon, he even felt he was being modest!

Seeing Liu Xuan's attitude, the Peach Blossom Demon Lord believed his identity even more. If he were just a lucky person who had happened upon an Opportunity, he would certainly not dare to speak so arrogantly in front of her.

The root of confidence is strength. Liu Xuan knew her identity as a Demon Lord yet showed no fear at all, which proved he had plenty of backing.

"Young Master, please don't be angry!" The Peach Blossom Demon Lord's aura retracted, instantly transforming from a high-and-mighty queen into a pure young girl. She bowed slightly to Liu Xuan. "Peach Blossom did not know your identity and has offended you. I hope you won't take it to heart."

"You think a simple 'didn't know' is enough?" Liu Xuan pushed his luck and said coldly, "Not only did you come uninvited, but you also saw my body as soon as you arrived. Tell me! How will you compensate me?"

"How does the Young Master want me to compensate you?" The Peach Blossom Demon Lord smiled radiantly, her delicate body leaning against Liu Xuan. "How about I let you see my body as well?"

"Fine by me!" Liu Xuan's blood boiled. His large hand reached up along her waist.

Liu Xuan would never waste food delivered to his door. Regardless of any future disasters, he would eat first.

Liu Xuan's bold move made the Peach Blossom Demon Lord's body stiffen. With a slight movement of her demonic power, she gently pushed Liu Xuan away.

"Young Master, I only looked just now; I didn't touch you!"
