427: Are you worthy? Immortal fell!
The moment he saw Nangong Xinyue, Li Jincheng, who was leading the group, had his eyes light up.
Evidently, encountering Nangong Xinyue here was quite unexpected for him as well.
Originally, he had intended to take a few of his 'good sisters' whom he had conquered to a remote and sparsely populated area to fully appreciate nature's scenery and discuss life.
He never expected such a pleasant surprise!
"I am Li Jincheng, the Emperor Son of the Red Dust Emperor Clan. I apologize for the intrusion, and I hope the young lady will not take offense."
Ignoring the [Disgust] favorability that appeared above Nangong Xinyue's head, Li Jincheng revealed a smile he believed to be dashing and refined.
After all, according to his experience, a Fairy like her, completely untainted by the Mortal World, was inherently cold and aloof, and it was normal for her to view anyone, especially men, with disgust.
Seeing their beloved display such a gaze towards a strange woman, several of the proud daughters of heaven whom Li Jincheng had conquered looked at Nangong Xinyue with either wariness or jealousy.
As if sensing what the women behind him were thinking, Li Jincheng quickly spoke to comfort them, skillfully displaying his gentlemanly demeanor.
"You all should not be so hostile towards this young lady."
"After all, it is we latecomers who have intruded upon her."
Such a simple trick was second nature to Li Jincheng.
Through this method, he had left a good first impression on countless proud daughters of heaven.
However, Nangong Xinyue's favorability did not increase.
Instead, it caused the several women following him to feel their hearts flutter.
"Li Jincheng, you are just too kind to others!"
The most powerful, sexy, and charming woman leading the group reached out her slender hand to grasp Li Jincheng's arm, her beautiful eyes filled with infatuation and admiration.
"This is the Immortal Hidden Land; everything here is ownerless, and everything must be obtained by strength."
As she spoke, the woman's gaze turned particularly displeased as she looked at Nangong Xinyue, the hostility and disdain in the depths of her pupils growing even stronger: "Such beautiful scenery cannot be enjoyed alone simply by being here first."
"Sister Xueqing, you shouldn't say that."
At this moment, another exquisitely beautiful, graceful, and lithe woman in green robes stepped forward to play the good cop.
"The Immortal Hidden Land is extremely perilous, and there is a risk of falling in any place."
"This sister is alone, and since we have encountered her, we should get along well and strive to travel together, helping each other."
"Moreover, I believe Brother Li Jincheng thinks so too."
After speaking, the woman in green robes gave Li Jincheng a pure and sweet smile.
Li Jincheng nodded slightly, revealing a relieved smile.
Then he turned to look at Nangong Xinyue.
The curve of his lips appeared exceptionally sincere and gentle.
"Young lady, the Immortal Hidden Land is extremely perilous. If you explore it alone, you may encounter misfortune."
"If you trust us, why not travel with us?"
"If you meet an acquaintance along the way, you can leave at any time. How about that?"
It must be said that Li Jincheng's words were flawless.
Especially for a Cultivator exploring the Immortal Hidden Land alone, they were particularly convincing.
But even though he concealed it well, the desire and craving in the depths of his pupils were clearly seen by Nangong Xinyue.
As for the several women, the hostility and disdain in their pupils were completely undisguised.
As for the woman in green robes who specifically came out to play the good cop, she was actually a manipulative woman, a schemer.
She was treating Nangong Xinyue as a tool to showcase her own purity and kindness, to increase Li Jincheng's favorability.
Ultimately, in one word, every one of these women and Li Jincheng made her feel disgusted.
"Travel together, helping each other?"
Nangong Xinyue sneered.
The next instant, a terrifying invisible pressure spread rapidly from her center, enveloping all directions.
"Are you even worthy?"
The moment she looked up, boom!
Her right hand, as white as jade, had emerged from her flowing sleeves and slammed down towards Li Jincheng!
"Young lady, you...!?"
Li Jincheng and the several proud daughters of heaven froze instantly, their faces suddenly ashen.
They had not expected Nangong Xinyue to suddenly attack them.
Nor had they expected Nangong Xinyue's strength to be so terrifying.
Just a casual raise of her hand for a palm strike, and the pressure emanating from it was terrifying enough to suffocate all of them!
A tremendous sense of life-and-death crisis and fear surged like a tide.
The Divine Souls and bodies of the other women had already solidified and stiffened under this deadly pressure; even if they used all their strength, their bodies could not react in the slightest.
As for Li Jincheng, because the Fairy Conquest System in his mind was frantically alarming him, he barely recovered from his shock and fear, bursting forth with all his strength and all his abilities, quickly dodging to the other side!
"Li Jincheng!?"
The women whose bodies were completely solidified could not move, but upon seeing Li Jincheng's actions, they immediately cried out in their hearts.
Their voices carried deep fear and intense disbelief.
Their perfect beloved, in their hearts, would actually be so cowardly at such a critical moment?
He was actually going to abandon all of them, planning to survive alone?
Their thoughts flashed by in an instant.
They also had no time to regret.
Rumble!
A palm strike, carrying terrifying power, slammed down from the sky.
The aura of destruction spread and vented like a bursting flood.
It crushed their protective Treasure Artifacts, and its remaining power, undiminished, directly struck their bodies, blasting them into a sky full of blood mist!
And Li Jincheng, who had barely dodged Nangong Xinyue's palm strike, was not much better off.
Just the surging Law aftershocks alone caused several of his bones to break, and his internal organs were churning from the violent impact, sending waves of excruciating pain like a tide.
"Damn it..."
Li Jincheng, who had barely stabilized his figure, cursed under his breath, his expression as gloomy as water.
He wasn't feeling pain for the several proud daughters of heaven who were killed by Nangong Xinyue's palm strike.
After all, he had conquered many proud daughters of heaven over the years.
He didn't care at all if a few of them died.
These proud daughters of heaven were nothing more than tools for him to vent his desires and Cauldron for Dual Cultivation.
What made him resentful was that his superb acting had not increased Nangong Xinyue's favorability towards him at all!
On the contrary, her favorability had dropped to [Hatred]!
"Since it has come to this..."
"I can only use that thing!"
Taking advantage of the brief moment before Nangong Xinyue made her next move, Li Jincheng dared not delay and took out a small, palm-sized porcelain bottle from his embrace.
On it were three large golden characters: immortal down!
