Capítulo 1173: Chapter 1172: A Night of Thrills and Danger
[All the way through companionship, support, rewards, and subscriptions, I’m truly fortunate to have you, these friends and book lovers. Grateful heart!]
Xiao Ling didn’t ntion anything about her mother, but Ye Tianchen could tell that Xiao Ling was not lying to him; her deep inner pain was genuine.
However, Ye Tianchen did not ask further since Xiao Ling was unwilling to talk about it. Why force her? Besides, they had only known each other for a day, not long enough to share such depths.
“Alright, it’s getting late, let’s sleep!” Xiao Ling glanced at Ye Tianchen and said.
“Sleep? You sleep then, I can just sit here for a while.” Ye Tianchen looked at Xiao Ling and replied.
Xiao Ling paused for a mont, her cheeks flushed as she said:
“Do you plan to sit all night? Even if your Cultivation Realm is profound, it will affect your Essence, Energy, Spirit tomorrow. It’s better… we share half the bed and take a nap!”
“Huh? Share half the bed? This…”
Ye Tianchen was startled, never expecting Xiao Ling to suggest such a request, which sowhat… here they were, a single man and woman, sharing a bed. If nothing happens, who would believe it?
“You… you’re unwilling, then forget it, you can sit all night!”
Xiao Ling’s cheeks turned crimson, nearly dripping with embarrassnt. As an eighteen-year-old girl, she had lived alone since childhood, and had never let any man touch her.
The reason she suggested sharing a bed with Ye Tianchen might have been due to guilt towards him, or maybe she perceived him as a good person, or perhaps Xiao Ling was genuinely very lonely!
Regardless, it took a great deal of courage for Xiao Ling to speak those words.
Seeing Xiao Ling turn away, appearing quite upset, Ye Tianchen couldn’t help but smile. Thinking that the girl wasn’t afraid, why should he, a grown man, be scared? Was he really that timid? He laughed, saying:
“I just feel it’s a bit inappropriate. Two people sleeping together, what if…”
“Dare, if you touch , I’ll… I’ll kill you, sleep if you want…”
After saying this, Xiao Ling turned away and climbed onto the small wooden bed beside, sleeping on the furthest side, leaving Ye Tianchen dumbfounded.
Having thought it through, Ye Tianchen proceeded solemnly to the side of the small wooden bed, slowly lying down as well. He trusted his self-control and believed that a Martial Artist shouldn’t sweat the small stuff; sotis you just have to overlook certain norms.
Coming to “Penglai Fairy Island,” he had already spent quite a bit of Martial Arts True Qi, and his Essence, Energy, Spirit were not that full, indeed needing replenishnt. Sleeping a bit was a good, quick way to recover.
Gradually, Ye Tianchen truly fell asleep. He didn’t know how long he slept, nor did he realize, unknowingly, due to personal sleeping habits, he had initially turned away from Xiao Ling but was now facing her, feeling a fragrance emanating. It was the unique body scent of a young girl, the unique fragrance of an eighteen-year-old girl, intoxicating and captivating.
A very full and soft body slipped into Ye Tianchen’s arms, and Ye Tianchen couldn’t help but embrace it. As a man, at such tis, with such a tempting body, natural reactions occur.
Ye Tianchen couldn’t resist an urge to move, and his body was pressing against the girl’s lower abdon, feeling a strange burning sensation.
“Ah…”
Suddenly, Ye Tianchen felt a bite on his chest, quite painful, pulling him from a hazy dream into wakefulness. He couldn’t help but look at the girl in his arms, blushing with embarrassnt, afraid to face Xiao Ling. anwhile, Xiao Ling was also too embarrassed to face Ye Tianchen, fiercely saying:
“Don’t think too much, I just get scared sleeping alone…”
Xiao Ling didn’t an it that way, and Ye Tianchen wasn’t soone lacking self-control. Thus, enveloped in soft beautiful fragrance, Ye Tianchen gradually fell asleep again.
When Ye Tianchen woke, he didn’t know what ti it was, only realized that Xiao Ling was gone. This girl gave Ye Tianchen a sense that was hard to fathom.
However, Ye Tianchen could vaguely feel that Xiao Ling was a tough girl, living alone here for so long, not knowing what dangers she encountered, what hardships she endured, and yet she persisted. Her stubborn nature, her unyielding deanor earned Ye Tianchen’s admiration.
“Where has this young girl gone? Has she gone to save her mother?” Ye Tianchen couldn’t help but think to himself.
After rising, Ye Tianchen washed his face with water, then stepped out from the house beneath the big tree. He glanced around, using his powerful Divine Thought to sense, he could detect a faint trace of the Eight-Ard Evil Dragon Egg’s aura.
This was because the night before, he had used his Divine Thought to probe inside; his mory held the aura of the Eight-Ard Evil Dragon Egg.
Swish!
Ye Tianchen vanished from the tree and headed southeast because he sensed the aura of the Eight-Ard Evil Dragon Egg moving in that direction.
At this ti, several powerful martial artists appeared around the Eight-Ard Evil Dragon’s lair. None of these martial artists carried any treasure, yet a strong aura of treasure emanated from them. It seed they had internalized the treasures, revealing a powerful aura from an unknown lineage.
“We’ve been monitoring this Eight-Ard Evil Dragon for a long ti. As long as we don’t attack it, it won’t attack us. However, taking the Eight-Ard Evil Dragon’s egg is not an easy task!” One person, appearing to be the leader, spoke first.
“However, this ti the Sect Master asked us not to leave. If there’s a chance, we must act. This Eight-Ard Evil Dragon is not easy to deal with!” another person said worriedly.
“Let’s wait. As long as we don’t attack this Eight-Ard Evil Dragon, it won’t attack… Ah!”
The third person hadn’t finished speaking when they exploded into a blood mist, pierced by a beam of light, and vanished with only a scream, shocking the other martial artists who promptly dodged and looked downward.
Down below, the Eight-Ard Evil Dragon, coiled in its stone lair, had charged out, emitting a powerful, murderous aura, glaring at them fiercely, leaving the group dumbfounded and breaking out in a cold sweat.
They were a lineage of the “Penglai Fairy Island” and naturally very familiar with this Eight-Ard Evil Dragon. For thousands of years, no one dared to provoke the Eight-Ard Evil Dragon, knowing its might. However, it never actively attacked people, so why now…
“Hey… Look, one of the Eight-Ard Evil Dragon’s eggs is broken?”
“What? Broken?”
“No, that egg is a fake. Soone must have switched it, enraging the Eight-Ard Evil Dragon and making us scapegoats. Let’s run!”
Thud!
Thud!
Thud!
In total, four people, with only the strongest escaping, severely injured. If not for the secret treasure within him that could instantly hide his aura, the Eight-Ard Evil Dragon would have surely hunted him down, and he would be dead for sure.
After the Eight-Ard Evil Dragon had left, the martial artist whose half-body was destroyed painfully erged from the hiding woods and said angrily:
“Who stole the Eight-Ard Evil Dragon’s egg, making us scapegoats? I will never let this go. I will tear them to pieces!”
Unluckily, these martial artists had just arrived outside the Eight-Ard Evil Dragon’s lair, intending to continue their observation, not to steal the egg. At that mont, the Eight-Ard Evil Dragon nourished its two eggs with its essence energy.
Unexpectedly, the fake egg Xiao Ling had swapped couldn’t withstand the powerful essence energy of the Eight-Ard Evil Dragon and shattered, realizing sothing was wrong. It was burning with anger when it saw the martial artists, naturally venting its rage and charging out.
With the Eight-Ard Evil Dragon’s might, these martial artists were no match and were obliterated without a chance to resist.
The last martial artist, whose half of the body was destroyed, took the opportunity as the Eight-Ard Evil Dragon killed another martial artist, using a secret treasure to hide his aura and narrowly escaped. Otherwise, all would have perished here.
At this ti, Xiao Ling traveled southeast with the Eight-Ard Evil Dragon Egg. “Penglai Fairy Island,” referred to as an island, but its scope was quite significant.
Xiao Ling gradually reached a sinister place, where Yin Qi pervaded and eerie winds blew, making it frighteningly eerie and lifeless, without a trace of life force.
Xiao Ling’s face was pale, and sweat appeared on her forehead. She cautiously moved forward step by step until she arrived in front of a massive solitary grave. She clenched her teeth tightly and then spoke:
“Black Wind Old Woman, co out. I want to see my mother!”
“Squeak squeak!”
A ghostly figure slowly floated out from the massive solitary grave—a female ghost in white, shrouded in a deathly aura, with blood flowing from her eyes, nostrils, and mouth, appeared before Xiao Ling, scaring her into not daring to open her eyes, her whole body trembling.
“Little girl, you dare to co here to see grandma. It seems you want to die. Your mother suffered endlessly to keep you alive. Since you don’t want to live either, I’ll eat your flesh and drink your blood. Grandma won’t see you!”
This female ghost said nacingly with a hideous face. (To be continued. If you like this work, please go to Qidian (qidian) to vote for recomndations and monthly tickets. Your support is my greatest motivation. Mobile users, please visit m.qidian to read.)
