Ghost Howl’s face was solemn as he spoke.
Mo Yue was slightly taken aback, then smiled even more, "It seems I guessed correctly, this little guy does have mysterious Blood Sect power within him. It wasn’t in vain that I struggled with those old ghosts for so long."
"Sect Leader, this boy harbors quite the hatred for our Blood Sect, aren’t you afraid of raising a tiger that will harm us later?"
Ghost Howl reminded in a low voice.
Mo Yue gently smiled, leisurely set down the teacup, and said calmly, "Have you forgotten about my Soul Hunt?"
Ghost Howl’s heart trembled, and he couldn’t help but agree, "I am ignorant..."
"Hehe, just wait and see, I will cultivate him into the most powerful killing weapon of the Blood Sect, by then, the righteous factions of the world will all fall into my hands!"
Seeing the sudden divine glow on Mo Yue’s face, Ghost Howl silently lowered his head, his mind inexplicably recalling Su Chen’s stubborn and unyielding expression. ...
As night fell, a desolate scene enveloped the Netherworld Ancient City. The shadow of night draped over the Purple Bamboo Cottage, obscuring the swaying bamboo forest.
Feeling as though he had slept a long and drawn-out sleep, an indescribable pain spread throughout his body, and his head felt like it was swollen intensely, as if filled with something. Upon waking, he felt a chilling sensation, Su Chen shivered and suddenly opened his eyes!
To his surprise, he found himself soaking in a bath full of green liquid! Even more astonishing, there was a stunningly beautiful woman in the bath with him!
He stupidly shrank against the inner wall of the bath, watching the woman swaying gracefully beneath the green water.
Mo Yue, like a mermaid swaying with spring charm, slowly swam over.
Su Chen covered his nose, splashing the water in disarray.
"Hehe, why do you look so scared upon seeing me? Do you think I would eat you?"
Mo Yue stood in front of Su Chen, giggling. Her beautiful form was half a head taller than him, and along with her swan-like white neck, even Su Chen was quite uneasy.
Mo Yue gently guided his face, a half-smile playing on her lips, "Oh my, what images are running through your head? Care to share~"
Su Chen hurriedly lowered his head, then quickly raised it again, exclaiming in a panic, "What... what do you want?"
"Nothing much, just helping you detoxify through a medicinal bath..." Mo Yue lightly exhaled a fragrant breath right onto Su Chen’s face, causing him to blush instantly, "I don’t need a medicinal bath, I’m fine..."
"Who said you’re fine?"
Mo Yue cradled the back of his head, a touch of enchanting allure in her smile, "You’re quite injured, if you don’t rely on the medicine to expel the stagnant blood and toxins, over time, it will result in chronic ailments."
"Then why did you come in too!"
Su Chen grumbled through clenched teeth!
"I just happened to want a bath, so I came in for a soak, saves me the trouble of preparing another tub, don’t you think?"
Mo Yue twisted her slender waist like a water snake, causing a wave to surge across the surface.
"Enjoy this beautiful moment, otherwise, there might be no chance tomorrow~" Mo Yue tapped Su Chen’s forehead with her jade-like finger, then with a splash, she surfaced, a sumptuous crimson bathrobe sweeping through the air.
Su Chen watched her leave the room, and after a long moment, he exhaled heavily.
This unfathomable, fairy-like woman, he truly dared not try to fathom her further. But the excuse she fabricated seemed too childlike, didn’t it? He was no longer a child, how could he be so easily fooled?
"But, why exactly did she come in?"
Su Chen fell into deep contemplation.
