Chapter 354: The Lewd Qing Hai Elder, Eliminated Before Even Making an Appearance!
Feeling the familiar warmth around her waist, Yun Yun's delicate face flushed red. Her soft, slender body trembled slightly not from resistance, but from sheer excitement.
"Am I dreaming?"
Her gentle, affectionate gaze locked onto the man right before her. At this moment, Yun Yun realized that no words could truly express what she was feeling.
The scene unfolding felt like a dream.
For so long, she had fantasized about being held in the embrace of the man who had once bullied her in that mountain cave.
But every time she opened her eyes, it was nothing more than an illusion.
All that greeted her was the dimly lit room around her, a faint ray of light casting over her body not a source of warmth, but a fragile thread of hope and longing.
She had been waiting, believing that the man she loved would come to save her.
And now, with the warmth enveloping her body, she knew this wasn't a dream. This was real.
Tears shimmered in her beautiful eyes, making Wu Tian's heart ache deeply.
Back then, he had treated Yun Yun with indifference not because he didn't care for her, but because he didn't want to hurt her.
At the time, Yun Yun was the Sect Master of Yun Lan Sect.
If he had told her that her teacher was involved with the Soul Hall that he was a despicable old scoundrel would she have believed him?
Even if she had believed him, she would have confronted Yun Shan immediately. And the result? She would have been ruthlessly silenced.
After all, even Yun Shan himself was nothing more than a mere pawn in the eyes of the Soul Hall.
So back then, his relationship with Yun Yun had been limited to one thing treating her injuries.
Well… the treatment locations had been a bit suggestive, but that was purely incidental!
Now, with both Yun Yun and Medusa in his embrace, the scene was nothing short of breathtaking for them.
But for everyone else…
It was a brutal public display of affection.
Medusa's narrow, piercing gaze locked onto Yun Yun, her delicate lips curling into a subtle smile.
But behind Wu Tian, her slender, jade like fingers twitched slightly.
This was, of course, the Queen showing her favoritism toward her husband.
Daring to hold another woman right in front of Her Majesty? This guardian spirit was getting far too bold!
Still, her anger was mild.
Because she, too, had noticed something was wrong with Yun Yun.
Not only had her strength been sealed, but her body bore hidden injuries.
Wu Tian was holding her not just for the sake of it he was healing her.
And the seal on her strength had been forcibly lifted, allowing her power to return.
Though Medusa felt a bit jealous, now wasn't the time to settle scores with Wu Tian.
But later that night… oh, she would settle this!
While the three of them immersed themselves in their own world, those being protected by Wu Tian were left utterly heartbroken.
Gu He, in particular, felt his soul shatter.
Did he even have a chance anymore?
If they survived today, the moment night fell, his beloved woman would undoubtedly belong to Wu Tian…
And he? He would be left drowning in his own misery.
The woman who was supposed to marry him was about to become someone else's.
It was like watching your girlfriend get married only to realize you weren't the groom.
Compared to their despair, the Soul Hall experts had turned completely grim.
It wasn't just Wu Tian's blatant disregard for them that infuriated them.
It was Yun Yun's sudden appearance.
Wu Tian had accurately revealed their identities and strengths, shocking them to the core.
They simply couldn't believe it.
They were Soul Hall Elders figures of immense status.
Even in the Central Plains, few people knew who they truly were, let alone in this remote corner of the world among the Snake People.
So how did Wu Tian know?
And more terrifyingly how could he directly state their power levels?
That was what truly unsettled them.
Wu Tian couldn't possibly have spies inside the Soul Hall. Their organization was too special, too impenetrable for infiltration.
Moreover, they knew that Elder Hong Ying, the Northwest Continent Branch Master, had only recently assumed her position.
The former branch master had been Qin Tian.
Hong Ying had been assigned to this region parachuted in as an elder!
The Northwest Continent was weak, and a three star Dou Zun like Qin Tian was more than enough to maintain control.
Hong Ying had been sent here not because of necessity, but because of her own breakthrough in strength.
Additionally, as a woman, she was more meticulous Soul Hall's leader, Hun Miesheng, had grown impatient with how long Qin Tian was taking to acquire the Tuoshe Ancient Emperor Jade.
Because even he had superiors to answer to Soul Clan's Tianzun experts.
His orders came from above, and under pressure, he had sent Hong Ying to accelerate the process.
With the presence of the Gu Clan, the Soul Clan had to be cautious.
That was why Qin Tian had been unable to act freely all these years.
But now, with Hong Ying's arrival, that limitation was gone.
This meant Wu Tian couldn't have learned about them through normal means.
There was only one explanation Wu Tian was far stronger than they had imagined.
Perhaps even stronger than them!
As they processed this realization, Wu Tian didn't waste any time.
With a casual gesture, he had rescued Yun Yun, showcasing his immense power.
The bystanders might not have understood the significance of the explosion he had caused.
But the Soul Hall Elders did.
Because that explosion had occurred precisely where Qing Hai Elder had been hiding.
And yet… Qing Hai Elder was nowhere to be seen.
There was only one explanation.
Qing Hai Elder had been eliminated before he even had the chance to appear!
Qing Hai Elder had been a last minute recruit a helper brought in by the Soul Hall.
While he was part of the Soul Hall, he wasn't stationed in the Northwest Branch.
He had only just completed an assignment for the main headquarters when Hong Ying intercepted him.
After a long night of persuasion both soft and forceful she had convinced him to join their mission.
But Qing Hai Elder wasn't a fool.
He wouldn't work without reward.
So he had set his own little condition.
For the others, it was a trivial request, so they hadn't given it much thought.
And so, Qing Hai Elder had hidden underground alongside other Dou Zong experts, waiting for the right moment to ambush Wu Tian.
He had even scoffed at Hong Ying's caution.
Hmph! Women will always be women. We have overwhelming power why all this unnecessary care?
Is she being cautious, or is she just an idiot?!
When the Soul Hall's Dou Zong experts emerged, Qing Hai Elder hadn't made his move.
Not just because he was confident in his ability to remain undetected…
But also because he was busy.
Qing Hai Elder had been hidden underground for one reason to fulfill the little condition he had negotiated with Hong Ying.
As an outsider to the Northwest Branch, he wasn't bound by their rules.
So he had ventured into the underground palace.
And there, in the dimly lit chamber, a beautiful figure awaited.
That figure was none other than Yun Yun…
Qing Hai Elder's condition…
Was that this beautiful woman would be his to claim.
Jie jie jie…
And so…
The moment Qing Hai Elder appeared, Yun Yun had been utterly horrified.
And his words…
His words were simply disgusting.
Faced with such a prime opportunity, he hadn't acted immediately.
Nor had he spoken much.
Instead…
He had simply stood there, letting out a low, sinister chuckle.
Jie jie jie…
He was planning to break her spirit first.
To make her lose all hope.
To force her to willingly submit to him…
