The demoness seemed to sense something, her laughter growing richer.
Su Yu's brow furrowed tightly.
The demonesses of the Fengyue Sect were most skilled in the Charming Technique.
Within the Sect, various methods like the Clear Heart Technique existed to counteract this. Although he diligently practiced his Heart Clearing Technique and had achieved Small Success, he was considered quite exceptional among his peers.
Moreover, to deal with the seduction of the Fengyue Sect's demonesses, the Sect always emphasized the Clear Heart Technique as a key point of assessment.
Disciples were required to cultivate it, and their Realm could not be low.
But now, it was completely ineffective!
Even he himself…
Su Yu stared at the graceful figure in the thick fog, his heart inexplicably starting to pound, an urge to draw closer welling up within him.
"This is bad!"
Su Yu slapped himself hard across the face.
This demoness possessed profound cultivation. The grade of her Charming Technique from the Fengyue Sect was unknown, but it was incredibly powerful!
"It seems you, little Cultivator, won't last much longer."
"Would you like to come back to the Sect with your sister?"
The demoness's voice was like a soul-summoning incantation. "Our Fengyue Sect has lots of fun things, you know. Besides, quite a few of your fellow sect brothers are already there."
"Come join us for some fun!"
"..." Wang Mu.
What's happening?
Wang Mu looked at Su Yu in the distance.
Why isn't this disciple of the Immortal Sect doing anything?
And his face is all red...
You should attack!
That demoness is just standing there, not moving. How come you all can't manage it? No one's even making a move, just flapping their gums...
Fengyue Sect...
Seems like the Village chief mentioned it...
Wang Mu thought for a moment, then nocked an arrow to his bow, ready to deal with danger at any moment…
In the distance, Su Yu felt his spirit enduring a form of torture.
A voice kept calling out to him from the depths of his heart.
Calling him to go over.
He saw his Eldest Senior Brother, his Master, and some of his former martial brothers from Heavenly Sword Peak...
And a host of stunning beauties...
"Do not dare disturb my Taoist Heart!"
Su Yu abruptly thrust a beam of sword light into his own shoulder. The tearing pain instantly brought him some clarity.
His Spiritual Power was blocked, and his scattered will prevented him from smoothly circulating the Spiritual Power within him.
"Hmm... I do appreciate the firm resolve of you men from the Sword Sect," the demoness tittered. "The more steadfast you are, the more I want to see you indulge yourselves and unleash your true natures..."
As her words fell, the demoness extended a finger. At her touch, a tendril of thick fog transformed into a pink long silk that shot towards Su Yu.
Just as the long silk was about to ensnare Su Yu,
An arrow pierced the air!
It was aimed directly at the branch beneath Su Yu's feet!
BANG!
The branch was expertly severed. Su Yu, already unsteady, instantly fell from the large tree, simultaneously avoiding being trapped by the pink long silk formed from the mist.
"Hm?"
The demoness on Xuan Gu's back immediately looked towards Wang Mu's position and hummed coquettishly. "How dare you shoot at your sister with sneak arrows? Little brother, if you have the guts, come shoot me openly."
"What kind of skill is shooting someone from behind?"
WHOOSH WHOOSH WHOOSH…
Wang Mu did not respond, firing several more arrows.
They were as fast as lightning!
"Such brilliant Archery! So you're just a mortal little brother. Truly exceptional. No wonder you could break Xuan Gu's defenses just now."
The demoness watched the arrows approach, merely smiled, and caught them with a light flick of her sleeve.
She glanced at them.
"Don't come out!" Su Yu, lying under the tree, shouted. "This is a demoness from the Fengyue Sect, proficient in seductive Demon Arts that bewitch the heart! Brave man, run quickly! Don't get involved!"
"Demoness, if you have what it takes, come at me!"
"What's so great about bullying these First Rank mortals?"
I could probably run away, Wang Mu thought. But it seems the surroundings are sealed.
Demon Art…
Seems like… I didn't feel anything.
Wang Mu did feel that the figure on Xuan Gu looked quite enchanting.
"What bullying?" the demoness giggled. "I intend to recruit them into my Sect. Mortal little brother, your Archery is profound, yet there's no trace of Spiritual Power fluctuation. You must not have a Spirit Root, right?"
"You don't have a Spirit Root. If you wanted to join that Broken Sword Sect, I'm afraid they wouldn't want you."
"How about this: come out and go back with your sister. Our Fengyue Sect doesn't care about Spirit Roots when recruiting. We even accept mortals without Spirit Roots!"
Hearing this, Wang Mu was stunned.
Wow, the Fengyue Sect's philosophy is quite progressive!
They even recruit mortals?
For anyone else, this would be an immense temptation.
"Brave man, do not believe this demoness's nonsense!" Su Yu struggled to maintain his composure, his voice faltering. "Their Fengyue Sect recruits mortals only for their amusement, as mere playthings! None of the mortals who enter the Fengyue Sect for Cultivation have ever come out alive!"
The demoness, however, was smiling radiantly.
At that moment, Wang Mu walked out and stood atop a large tree.
Seeing this, Su Yu grew alarmed. When his somewhat blurred vision focused on Wang Mu, he became even more frantic.
"It's you?" Su Yu exclaimed in shock.
This couldn't be Wang Mu, could it?
He remembered very clearly from his last visit to Anle Village.
The person Elder Yan had personally instructed him to watch over.
In terms of importance, this person was even more significant than the other children.
As if struck by a thought, Su Yu immediately shouted, "Demoness, this person is valued by Elder Yan of my Sword Sect! If you dare to harm him, you'd better think carefully about the formidable power you'll be facing!"
"Elder Yan?" The demoness paused, stunned for several seconds, then suddenly burst out laughing. "Oh, that's just perfect! If my Venerable Lord knew I brought back someone even your Elder Yan values, then wouldn't that just..."
Thinking of this, the demoness seemed to imagine something delightful.
She looked at Wang Mu, her gaze laced with fervor.
? Su Yu thought.
What's going on?
Elder Yan is an Ascension Expert renowned throughout the Huangtian Continent! Even if he failed his Crossing Tribulation, he's still one of the most powerful Cultivators in the world...
How could his name be so ineffective?
Not only is it ineffective, it's actually backfired...
Besides, the Sword Sect and the Fengyue Sect have been at war for years. Elder Yan has captured countless demonesses; he should be the one the Fengyue Sect fears most...
How could this be...
? Wang Mu wondered.
Wang Mu was also stunned.
What's going on?
Yan Qingwu is supposed to be one of the most powerful experts in this world... How come her reputation seems useless...
She doesn't even seem to doubt it. That look in her eyes... it's like she wants to eat me alive...
Instantly, Wang Mu became extremely vigilant.
「The next moment.」
"Come on over, little brother!" the demoness cooed with bursts of coquettish laughter, her eyes fixed on Wang Mu as the dense fog swirled.
? Wang Mu thought.
"Are you crazy? You think I'll come just because you tell me to?" Wang Mu nocked an arrow, drew his bow, and aimed it at her, an expression of utter speechlessness on his face.
He'd been expecting the demoness to cast some kind of Spell.
? the demoness wondered.
Her expression changed slightly.
What's going on? Why is this boy completely unaffected by my charm?
The demoness looked at Wang Mu with shock and uncertainty, then glanced at the children who had already walked over to her side, and then at Su Yu in the distance, his face beet-red, his mind seemingly on the verge of collapse.
It seems there's no problem with my technique...
Could it be... he's exceptionally gifted?
"In that case..."
The demoness's pupils suddenly contracted. In an instant, a mystical Yin Yang pattern flew out from her eyes.
The pattern was incredibly mystical, appearing as if countless tiny, tadpole-like figures were merging, forming a series of incredibly tempting dynamic images. It seemed capable of captivating one's mind, making them easy to control.
"Mysterious Yin Seductive God, Yin Yang Conquest Joy Technique!"
From a distance, Su Yu merely glanced at it, and his already flushed cheeks instantly turned blazing red.
Having just turned thirty and not yet found a Taoist couple, he had never witnessed the kinds of scenes depicted in the pattern.
It's over... this is one of the Fengyue Sect's most disastrous techniques...
In the final moment as his consciousness sank into oblivion, Su Yu recalled the rumors about his Master being bewitched and joining the Fengyue Sect.
It was said he had fallen prey to this very technique, becoming utterly engrossed. He then clamored about discussing the Yin Yang Dao with the demonesses of the Fengyue Sect and was never seen again...
This mere mortal...
The demoness looked at Wang Mu in the distance with a somewhat self-satisfied gaze.
Although he's exceptionally gifted and can resist some degree of charm, a Yin Yang secret technique of this caliber isn't something a mere mortal can withstand.
She quietly waited...
「On the other side.」
Wang Mu was instantly drawn to the emerging pattern, only...
"Is that all?"
