Chapter 398: The Shyness of Feng Yao

"Damn it!" Even Qin Xuan couldn't help but curse when he heard this.

This solution was simply too crude.

She was treating him as a human shield.

However, the treatment was different from those other Children of Luck.

When those Children of Luck acted as shields, they only attracted disgust, verbal abuse, and contempt.

But for him, this shield role started with real, hands-on action.

He hadn't even met Chu Yun yet, and he was already about to cuckold him.

Hiss... Qin Xuan gasped, rubbing his slightly sore waist, and looked at Feng Yao. "Isn't that a bit inappropriate?"

It wasn't that he was unwilling, but there were many inconveniences.

Chu Yun and the Chu Family could be set aside for the moment, but the issue with the futu tower alone already destined him to stand on the opposite side of this Chu Yun.

It was just that he had just arrived at the Hongmeng Continent from the Yaochi Sacred Land, having crossed the space-time rift, and he was physically exhausted.

Moreover, in the Yaochi Sacred Land, Saintess Yao Yao with the Natural Charm Physique and Empress Mingyue, Empress Zhou Wu, had taken turns, competing in beauty, both wanting to outdo the other, trying to prove themselves through him.

It wasn't that his heart was willing but his strength was lacking, but rather that the Natural Charm Physique and the unyielding Empress Zhou Wu were simply too draining.

At this moment, he just wanted some peace and quiet. Even with this top-tier beauty Feng Yao standing before him, he had no ulterior motives for the time being.

Feng Yao shook her head and said stubbornly, "What's wrong with it? Anyway, now that you've come to the Hongmeng Continent, the Blood Asura Clan and the Earth Sect, having each lost two Heavenly God Realm experts, will absolutely not let you off."

"And that Ancestor of the Chu Family is also a Grand Elder of the Earth Sect and has a remarkable friendship with the Black Lotus Heavenly God."

"You are destined to be mortal enemies with the Chu Family; it is impossible to resolve the grudge."

"After you and I engage in Dual Cultivation, I will no longer be a maiden. When Chu Yun finds out, he will inevitably break off the engagement. No matter how unwilling the great experts in the clan are, they will have to let the marriage be called off."

"With me staking my life on it, I can definitely let you leave the Phoenix Clan safe and sound!"

This method was a permanent solution for her.

Anyway, Qin Xuan was already so burdened that one more debt didn't matter; he wasn't afraid of offending yet another Chu Yun.

Qin Xuan looked at the headstrong Feng Yao and asked suspiciously, "If I hadn't come to the Hongmeng Continent, what would you have done?"

The overbearing Pure Phoenix Flame around Feng Yao dissipated as she said in a deep voice, "Either I kill Chu Yun and break ties with the Chu Family of Central Region and the Phoenix Clan, or Chu Yun kills me, and the Chu Family of Central Region and the Phoenix Clan break ties!"

She stared at Qin Xuan with deep, gloomy eyes and said coldly, "Could it be that you think I, Feng Yao, am that kind of promiscuous woman? Do you think I would just find someone to submit to, just to annoy Chu Yun, or perhaps to acquiesce to the Phoenix Clan's arrangement and marry Chu Yun?"

"That, I don't think." Qin Xuan quickly shook his head, looked at Feng Yao, and said playfully, "If no one else will do, but I am acceptable, could it be that you fell in love with me after we parted ways at the God Ruins?"

Feng Yao didn't act coy; she extended her little finger, perhaps feeling it wasn't quite accurate, pinched the tip of her little finger, and nodded. "I do like you, but only just this little bit."

Qin Xuan couldn't help but chuckle at Feng Yao's spirited yet slightly coy, delicate posture.

If you said she wasn't honest, she was actually able to admit she liked him when facing him.

If you said she was honest, she would redundantly emphasize that it was only a tiny bit of liking.

Just because of this tiny bit of liking, she could engage in Dual Cultivation with him?

He didn't believe that Feng Yao, who spoke of breaking ties at the drop of a hat, was truly being sincere.

He didn't deliberately expose her, but stepped forward and began to remove Feng Yao's fiery red feather garment.

Feng Yao panicked and retreated, draping the feather garment back over her shoulders, and looked at Qin Xuan in annoyance. "What are you doing?"

Qin Xuan reached out impatiently. "I'm helping you!"

"Didn't you already make the decision to become my Dao Companion? How else can we make the engagement fall apart unhappily?"

"Well, there's no time like the present. Let's do it now—let's Dual Cultivate together."

Feng Yao looked at Qin Xuan, whose eyes were filled with eagerness, and felt a slight joy in her heart, though more of it was shyness.

Although she said that, seeing Qin Xuan in such an impatient state, she still found it slightly difficult to adapt.

She grabbed Qin Xuan's hands, shook her head, and stammered, "Today is today, but I need to go bathe and change. You wait for me."

Qin Xuan raised his hand and used a spell to bathe Feng Yao, then swept her up into his arms. "You're already at the Imperial Realm cultivation level, why the hell are you bathing? Can't a simple spell solve that?"

Feng Yao wrapped her arms around Qin Xuan's neck, biting her moist lips, her long fiery red hair cascading to the ground.

Between her brows, with a swaying charm, she whispered, "I think, actually, perhaps I was being too presumptuous."

"Perhaps after things actually happen, I won't be able to keep you safe within the Phoenix Clan."

"It's possible that those Phoenix Clan great experts who value Chu Yun might kill you in a fit of rage."

Qin Xuan shook his head. "Before dying, to be able to taste Young Miss Feng Yao, it can be considered a life without regrets."

Feng Yao closed her beautiful eyes, and when she opened them again, her determination was even stronger. She untied the sash of her undergarments and looked at Qin Xuan with calm, ripple-less eyes. "If that is what you truly think, then so be it."

"If you only wanted to intimidate me, then you've scared the wrong person. Things that I, Feng Yao, have decided, will never change."

Qin Xuan placed Feng Yao on the bright red bed and glared at her in annoyance. "Your decisiveness is indeed somewhat beyond my expectations. You are right; I cannot destroy your innocence in this situation right now, and even less can I cause a scene within the Phoenix Clan."

Feng Yao inexplicably let out a sigh of relief, her breath fragrant as an orchid as she said, "You could also wait until I head to the Central Region and work with me from the inside and out to rescue me."

"Ying!" Suddenly, a soft moan escaped Feng Yao's nose, one that even she was surprised by.

She lowered her chin, looking at Qin Xuan's audacious hand, and said angrily, "What are you doing?!"

Qin Xuan's fingertips tapped rhythmically against the softness. "According to what you said, with Sword God Luosang's strength being so great, how could the two of us possibly contend with him?"

Feng Yao's exquisite, shy face was almost red enough to drip blood. "Sword God Luosang might not necessarily be at the Chu Family, and they might not even have a Heavenly God Realm expert stationed there! It's just that Chu Yun is the head of the imperial ranking, hiss... let go!"

Feng Yao's exclamation drew a Phoenix Clan maid from outside the courtyard, who asked in a panic, "Young Miss Feng Yao, what's wrong?"

"No... nothing." Feng Yao gritted her teeth and glared angrily at Qin Xuan.

She never imagined that her abruptness not only failed to scare Qin Xuan off, but instead allowed this guy to push his luck and take advantage of her.

This guy was a Prodigy with astonishing combat power, but deep down, he was a lecher! It was so annoying!

Back in the God Ruins, she had been deceived by him.

The maid outside the courtyard called out softly, "Young Miss Feng Yao, Young Master Chu has arrived. The Elder requests that you move to the central hall immediately."

Feng Yao stood up, tidied her clothes, and looked at Qin Xuan. "You just stay hidden here for now. Once things are settled, you and I will discuss the specific details of our escape."

Seeing Feng Yao leave looking slightly dejected, Qin Xuan felt a bit dissatisfied and said coldly, "Since coming to the Hongmeng Continent, am I to be reduced to hiding and enduring?"

Inside the ancient prison-suppressing tower, Leng Li woke up from the Legacy and huffed jealously, "In the Yaochi Sacred Land, you were surrounded by beauties, and now that you've come to the Hongmeng Continent, you've actually managed to run into a confidante!"

"I don't know whether to say you have good luck with women or to scold you for being a flirt."

"Since you don't want to, then just cause a scene. Make things loud and ruin the engagement."

Qin Xuan rolled his eyes. "The Chu Family has a Sword God Luosang."

Leng Li let out a soft huff. "Sword God Luosang? Does he even deserve the title of Sword God?"

"Let alone a mere Ancestor of the Chu Family, even if the experts of the Blood Asura Clan and the Earth Sect all arrived together, I could still keep you safe!"

Qin Xuan was just about to ask for details, but he saw Leng Li take the initiative to open up the memories deep within her mind.

Upon learning of the Legacy memory Leng Li had obtained from the styx purple ice crystal, his eyes lit up with great joy. "You are actually the Reincarnation of a great expert!"
