The Beauty Trap That Leads to Instant Bankruptcy
Holy crap!
This is the legendary honey trap!
After a moment of restless thoughts, Qi Yuan quickly reacted.
Xiao Yueni, who stood out among countless fellow Cultivators of her generation to become the Linglong Saintess, would certainly not be a naive, love-struck girl. Even if she had developed some good feelings for him, it was impossible for her to lose her rationality and come to throw herself into his arms late at night.
Her overly eager demeanor definitely hid an ulterior motive.
Currently, it seemed the Linglong Saintess had other intentions, wanting to inquire about the relationship between This Qi and Ancestor Fei Huang.
At this moment, Qi Yuan couldn't help but admire this woman's cleverness. From the moment she entered the room, every word she spoke and every expression she made was just right, perfect and flawless.
Thinking carefully, Xiao Yueni hadn't said a single ambiguous word just now, yet she clearly conveyed that she wasn't without affection for This Qi, and the reason they couldn't be together was due to their identities and fate.
Diligently cultivating, mutually encouraging, and jointly seeking longevity... such perfectly correct nonsense, even if heard by others, would not be problematic at all and could be entirely interpreted as the Linglong Saintess encouraging the Dao Child of Tai Xuan to strive for strength and make vigorous progress.
However, in the current scenario of a lone man and woman, it subtly became a kind of hint, meaning something similar to “you go earn money first, and come marry me after you buy a house” in later generations.
Faced with such soft, sweet words from a peerless beauty, an ordinary man would have long been captivated and lost in wild fantasies, but Qi Yuan was different.
In terms of appearance, Ji Chan'er was also a top beauty rarely seen in the world, and that demonic girl also had an innate charm, naturally more unrestrained than Xiao Yueni, who came from a prestigious orthodox sect.
Senior Sister Bai Xirou was also quiet and beautiful, with fair skin and a flower-like face, and with the special attributes of her supreme Cauldron Physique, she was not inferior in the slightest.
All things considered, Qi Yuan was an old hand who had experienced many storms; how could he easily be infatuated with beauty?
This woman actually dares to play a honey trap with me, bro?
If I chicken out today, I'll take your surname!
After understanding this, a playful glint flashed in Qi Yuan's eyes. He unceremoniously reached out and pulled the Linglong Saintess into his arms, saying casually:
"Since Fairy Xiao has asked, This Qi will naturally tell you everything without reservation. To be frank, Fairy, Ancestor Fei Huang of your esteemed sect and I hit it off immediately and had a very pleasant conversation."
"Ancestor Fei Huang personally said that she doesn't have many friends in her life. Besides Ancestor Fang Lan of your sect, I am her closest Junior."
"Also, I know that Ancestor Fei Huang's true form is actually a Mythical Beast. Thanks to Ancestor's great love, I even rode it once today..."
"How could that be?!"
Aside from the time in the illusionary realm, this was Xiao Yueni's first time being in such close contact with a man. Her delicate body instinctively trembled, and just as she was about to break free from his clutches, she was suddenly startled by the news she heard next.
The matter of Cheng Feihuang being an Innate Divine Beast, the Mythical Beast, was an absolute top secret within the Linglong Holy Land. Besides the Sect Head and her, the Saintess, only a few Ancestors and Grand Elders knew about it. Even some Hedao Realm high-ranking Elders were kept in the dark.
For Ancestor Fei Huang to so easily tell such a hidden matter to an outsider, the implications were truly terrifying to ponder.
Even more incredible was that their sect's protecting Ancestor, a dignified Innate Divine Beast, the Mythical Beast, in the Late Stage of the Mahayana Realm, was... ridden?!
Xiao Yueni's small mouth slightly parted, and her pretty face showed an expression of shattered beliefs, her entire being falling into a dazed state.
On the other side, Qi Yuan was also a bit distracted. Feeling the soft, warm touch and the faint, alluring fragrance, he felt his heart rate accelerate, and his breathing became a bit heavier.
What's going on?
He had expected the Linglong Saintess to be frightened by his lecherous appearance and then flee in a panic, but unexpectedly, she looked "docile" and showed no signs of resistance.
To employ a honey trap, is the Linglong Saintess willing to go to such lengths?
Thinking of this, Qi Yuan decided to intensify his efforts, first to taste the sweetness, and then to test the Linglong Saintess's bottom line.
Thus, his hands gradually began to move uncontrollably... The sudden surge of a strange sensation brought Xiao Yueni back from her shock. Her face instantly flushed crimson, and she quickly pressed down on a certain person's unceremonious large hand, stammering:
"You, stop, stop it..."
Although her heart was extremely shy, to obtain more information, she forcibly endured the urge to escape and asked softly and tenderly:
"Fellow Daoist Qi, Ancestor Fei Huang has always lived a reclusive life and rarely meets outsiders. Why does she favor you so much?"
Qi Yuan nonchalantly touched his nose, smiling faintly and saying:
"I don't know why either. Perhaps it's because I'm handsome, and Ancestor Fei Huang finds me pleasing to the eye, which is why she appreciates me."
Handsome?
Xiao Yueni was stunned by his words and suspiciously scrutinized Qi Yuan.
Although this guy's appearance was decent and his temperament could be described as "excellent," he was far from being able to charm thousands of maidens with just his face.
Ancestor Fei Huang has lived for over a hundred thousand years; what kind of handsome men hasn't she seen? How could she value this boy merely for a good-looking facade?
Remembering her purpose for coming, Xiao Yueni immediately let out a light breath, a perfectly appropriate look of admiration appearing on her face:
"Fellow Daoist Qi is exceptionally talented. With a Nascent Soul Realm cultivation, you defeated the Dao Child of Ziyang, Ji Tianpeng, who was in the Early Stage of Soul Transformation, with a single sword strike. You are truly the most outstanding Genius of the younger generation among the Seven Great Holy Lands, and your future is absolutely boundless."
"It is also logical that you would receive the favor of Ancestor Fei Huang."
As a clever woman, she knew exactly what men wanted to hear, especially young, high-ranking, and vigorous talents like Qi Yuan. A little flattery would be enough to hook them.
Since direct questioning yielded nothing, she could only try to extract valuable information from Qi Yuan through indirect means.
To save the Linglong Holy Land, she was completely throwing caution to the wind this time!
Indeed, upon hearing these compliments, Qi Yuan seemed to become somewhat conceited, saying ambiguous and meaningless words while continuing to take advantage.
Honestly, even though this woman was completely covered, she was quite well-endowed... In no time, Xiao Yueni was defeated. In a state of confusion and infatuation, not only did she not get any clues, but Qi Yuan also extracted many secrets from her, almost spilling all the details of the Linglong Holy Land.
Finally, she realized something was wrong and quickly pushed away the man beside her, saying in a flustered manner:
"Fellow Daoist Qi, it's getting late. You should rest early. I'll be leaving now."
"Wait."
Qi Yuan's lips curled into a slight smile as he grabbed Xiao Yueni's fair and slender wrist, saying with a grin:
"Fairy Xiao, don't forget, according to Ancestor Fei Huang's instructions, you are now my woman. There's no time like the present, so why don't we fast-forward to the bridal chamber, how about it?"
In an instant, Xiao Yueni's jade-like face turned crimson as blood, and she said with a trembling voice:
"Too... too fast, I, I'm not ready yet..."
Qi Yuan was unmoved and said leisurely:
"Alright, then I'll tell Ancestor Fei Huang that you disagree with her methods."
"No, don't!"
Xiao Yueni's heart pounded wildly. "Please, please give me some time, I, I..."
Qi Yuan raised an eyebrow, the smile at the corner of his mouth becoming even more pronounced:
"Fairy Xiao, since you used a honey trap to flirt with me, you naturally have to see it through."
"However, since you're not ready yet, why don't we... try a different approach?"
What?
Xiao Yueni's expression froze. Before she could react, she was pulled back to her original spot...
