"Senior Brother Wang..." Xiao Rou’s cheeks tinted a delicate pink, growing even more captivating under Wen Zhixing’s gaze. She subtly shrank back.
The sheer undergarments clung tightly to her skin, revealing a hazy, stunning figure.
Seeing this, Wen Zhixing’s eyes narrowed slightly. Then, I can’t blame myself...
Originally, I hadn’t wanted to torment Xiao Rou any further. Just consuming some of her essence would be enough. After all, it’s the steady trickle that runs long. But seeing those panel prompts, and how Xiao Rou isn’t afraid to die... He suddenly felt a stir within him again. The lure of extending his life-span was too great. No wonder the people of the Wonderous Palace are so fond of essence absorption. Proper cultivation just isn’t as fast as essence absorption.
However, I suppose this could be considered eliminating a public menace... Wen Zhixing silently made an excuse for himself. The demonesses of the Wonderous Palace aren’t good people, after all.
With that thought, his gaze became even more aggressive. Demoness, die!
"Senior Brother Wang, are you hungry...? I’ll go cook for you..." Xiao Rou smiled and rose upon seeing this.
Although she did not resist Wen Zhixing, she was not prepared to let him have his way. After all, the memories of last night were still vivid. Wen Zhixing’s formidable power had blasted her into unconsciousness. She wasn’t quite sure how to describe that feeling. She looked forward to it but also felt a faint trace of fear in her heart, somewhat fearing she might not withstand it.
"No need to trouble yourself." However, Wen Zhixing caught hold of her and said with a smile, "Here, you won’t be hungry after taking some elixir." As he spoke, a jade bottle appeared in his hand.
"Senior Brother Wang... This elixir..." Xiao Rou paused, recognizing the familiar jade bottle. This elixir... it looks so familiar...
"The Palace Master said it is the Wonderous Soul-devouring Pill, very nourishing." As Wen Zhixing spoke, devil runes began to appear on his cheeks, and a cruel, demonic smile played at the corners of his mouth.
"What! Senior Brother Wang... No... I don’t need it..." Xiao Rou’s smile stiffened slightly, and Wen Zhixing’s words sent a shiver through her heart. This is the Wonderous Soul-devouring Pill; it’s not something to be consumed casually!
"Here, let me feed you." Wen Zhixing, disregarding Xiao Rou’s refusal, gripped her delicate chin with a strong hand and forcefully stuffed the elixir into her mouth.
"COUGH, COUGH, COUGH... Senior Brother Wang... stop..." Xiao Rou suddenly panicked. Yet Wen Zhixing’s strength was immense, and she was in no position to refuse. The Wonderous Soul-devouring Pill melted into her system in an instant.
"I... I... you... you..." Xiao Rou stood frozen, trembling uncontrollably. She had actually swallowed the Wonderous Soul-devouring Pill. This is trouble... For the first time, she felt that the man before her might be a pervert.
"What are you afraid of? This is good stuff." Seeing Xiao Rou scared pale by his actions, Wen Zhixing also swallowed a few Wonderous Soul-devouring Pills. Just to replenish my strength.
"Senior... Senior Brother Wang... I need to go back..." Xiao Rou’s pretty face started to flush red as the pill’s effects kicked in. She quickly rose to her feet and staggered towards the exit. This won’t do! I must hurry back and seek salvation from the Palace Master! Now she was truly frightened.
"Who allowed you to leave!" Wen Zhixing scoffed coldly and, in a flash, blocked Xiao Rou’s path. The next moment, one large hand firmly grasped her slender neck and slowly lifted her.
"NGH... Senior Brother Wang..." Xiao Rou’s pupils contracted sharply, her breathing turning rapid. She tried to push Wen Zhixing away with both arms, but his long, powerful arms were like iron bands, firmly trapping her. Her feet left the ground, her breathing growing more labored.
"Without my permission, you cannot leave, understand?" Wen Zhixing’s mouth curled up slightly, his other hand gently caressing her flushed, tender face.
"MMH... Yes... Yes..." Xiao Rou panicked, nodding vigorously. She felt as though her neck could be snapped at any moment. This man isn’t normal—I’m truly scared!
She was there on Si Nanyan’s orders to keep an eye on Wen Zhixing. His importance was self-evident and not to be taken lightly. If there was any anomaly, she was to report it promptly. But now, all she wanted was to flee. Fear gnawed at her. He’s going to torment me to death eventually!
"Good, just be obedient!" Wen Zhixing laughed contentedly and let go of her.
"COUGH, COUGH, COUGH!" Xiao Rou’s body went limp, and she collapsed to the ground, coughing desperately. She had nearly suffocated moments ago.
"Alright, let’s begin..." Then, Wen Zhixing pulled up the limp Xiao Rou, and without waiting for her reaction, one hand reached out and stroked her slender waist.
"COUGH, COUGH... Senior Brother Wang... wait..." Xiao Rou’s breath hitched, her body trembling. It’s over. There’s no escape.
"Don’t worry, I have a cultivation skill that will keep you safe," Wen Zhixing said, a meaningful smile flickering in his eyes.
Time flew, and half a day hurried past.
Wen Zhixing rose, feeling refreshed, and stretched his body. As for Xiao Rou, she lay unconscious. This time, he had been even more ferocious than before. The Inverse Integrated Cultivation Skill had been pushed to its limit, and a substantial amount of Xiao Rou’s essence had been absorbed.
[You have absorbed the opponent’s Spiritual Qi, your Spiritual Qi cultivation has grown once again.]
[Your Nine-turns Sun Sutra has broken through, entering the second turn.]
[You have used the Inverse Integrated Cultivation Skill to absorb the opponent’s essence.]
