Dao Companion Crippled, Coveters Move

'Let's see you try to seduce any more respectable fairies after this!'

The Jade Pool Sect Leader fell silent for a moment before letting out a soft sigh. She raised her hand, releasing a beam of Five-Colored Divine Light to guide Lin Qianyan out from the waterfall.

On the surface, however, she maintained the appearance of someone who refused to forgive Lin Qianyan.

"The Sect Leader of the Yin Yang Sacred Land is here... She specifically asked for you to sit in on our meeting."

"The ancient expert who attacked the Xuanyuan Dao Sect seemed to be specifically after that old flame of yours. He must have something that the attacker wants.

You grew up with that Pei Yuhang. See if you can pick up on any clues."

As the Jade Pool Sect Leader spoke, she transferred some Spiritual Qi to Lin Qianyan, returning a rosy tint to her pale cheeks.

"Thank you, Sect Leader."

"Don't thank me. Once this is over, you're going right back to Hui Xianya to continue your penance.

Before that, go change your clothes and freshen up. Don't you dare embarrass the Jade Pool Sacred Land in front of the Yin Yang Saint Master."

With a stern, unsmiling expression, the Jade Pool Sect Leader mounted her Seven-Colored Divine Deer and flew away.

Lin Qianyan watched the Sect Leader leave, then subconsciously looked east—in the direction of the Dao Sect.

'Brother Pei... You have to be okay.'

'No matter how hard it gets, Qianqian will find you again!'

'We... will... We'll definitely meet again.'

...

...

A sensual, humid heat permeated the Underground Palace, thick with a sweet, musky aroma.

"You are nothing but a mere man, yet you dare say I am inferior to Qing Yueqiu?!"

"I am the ancestor of that faithless, promise-breaking little wench, Qing Yueqiu!"

Enraged by the implication in Pei Yuhang's words that she was 'inferior to Yueqiu,' Ji Shenyun's exhausted body erupted with newfound strength.

Like a lioness, she pinned her prey beneath her. A bloodthirsty, captivating light burned in her beautiful eyes.

But Pei Yuhang met her gaze without a trace of fear.

His direct gaze made Ji Shenyun feel as if her authority had been violated.

This was something she had never once experienced back when she ruled an empire.

No one would have dared challenge her authority with such a look—the authority of an Empress, the strongest expert of her era.

Yet now, Pei Yuhang was brazenly challenging her pride as a superior being.

This left Ji Shenyun breathing raggedly, a sense of frustration and defeat welling up inside her.

'Why... why can't I completely break this man?'

'My power is clearly superior to his. Why won't he submit?'

She quickly arrived at two answers.

First, she did indeed need this man to recover her strength and quickly pass through her current period of weakness.

Therefore, Pei Yuhang knew his life was safe, which made him fearless.

Second, while her strength was greater than Pei Yuhang's, allowing her to force him to obediently offer up his body...

...she had never managed to conquer him in the one area where he held the most pride.

'To completely mold Pei Yuhang to my will.'

'I must... utterly crush him in that domain!'

At this thought, Ji Shenyun bit down on Pei Yuhang's neck and mumbled indistinctly:

"I... will conquer you completely! I'll make you forget the name of every woman but me!"

Feeling the wet, stinging sensation on his neck, Pei Yuhang's brow furrowed slightly. But he maintained a nonchalant expression and offered a taunting smile. "Alright. Bring it on!"

"If you can actually conquer me."

"You're not the only woman who's wanted to conquer me... but not a single one has succeeded!"

Sensing the disdain in Pei Yuhang's eyes, Ji Shenyun tossed her brilliant, dazzling silver hair and thought with confidence:

'Hmph... I once conquered endless lands and the creatures of other races. Conquering you should be a simple matter!'

...

After a battle between dragon and tiger.

The proud Empress still lost.

She was utterly and completely crushed.

"I thought you were going to conquer me? Come on, try again."

"Where's that imposing air you had when you stormed the Dao Sect and kidnapped me?"

Pei Yuhang's voice was tinged with glee and satisfaction.

After all, this Female Demon had once stormed the Dao Sect's territory with unstoppable might, sweeping aside every expert in her path.

She had severely wounded Elder Xiao, Saint Master Yin, Junior Sister Nangong, Shang Miaoyan, and the others.

She had acted as if she was supreme in all of heaven and earth.

But now it seemed...

'Looks like not every part of her is so invincible.'

Pei Yuhang watched Ji Shenyun lying motionless on the bed like a dead body. 'I guess in a way,' he thought, 'I've gotten revenge for everyone at the Dao Sect.'

'The method may have been a bit unorthodox, but I suppose it still brings glory to the sect.'

Pei Yuhang chuckled and shook his head.

He couldn't be bothered to help Ji Shenyun tidy up, instead rising to bathe in the natural spring of the Underground Palace.

Once he was certain he was clean, he spoke to Ji Shenyun, who was still lying on the bed like a dead fish.

"Ji Shenyun, it's been two days. I want to go see my junior sister now, ahead of schedule."

Hearing his words, Ji Shenyun's hazy, beautiful eyes first went wide, then slowly refocused, a cold light flashing within them.

She forced her aching, weak body upright, her slender fingers clutching the brocade quilt. Her misty phoenix eyes, now brimming with resentment, stared daggers at Pei Yuhang.

"Pei Yuhang..."

Ji Shenyun's voice was husky with the lazy aftermath of their passion, but every word dripped with ice.

"I have just graced you with my favor, and you already wish to see another woman? Do you think I have been too indulgent?"

The Empress's voice sharpened, and a biting Suppression radiated from her. "For how you just... defied my will, for your lack of restraint... I could have your entire clan exterminated for that alone!"

Pei Yuhang met her fierce gaze, his own expression calm as he pressed forward.

"Ji Shenyun, you sealed my Cultivation and cut off my path forward. I'm idle now, so what's wrong with going to see my junior sister?"

Before the Empress's astonished eyes, Pei Yuhang raised his hand and brought it down with a slap—

SLAP!

The crisp sound echoed through the Underground Palace.

Ji Shenyun's entire body went rigid, her exquisitely beautiful face instantly freezing over.

She widened her eyes in disbelief, her red lips slightly parted, and even her breathing stopped for a moment.

The perfect posterior of the Asura Royal Family, always so majestic and inviolable, was now burning with a fiery sting.

That slap hadn't just landed on the Empress's noble body; it felt like a slap across the face of her supreme authority!

"You—"

Ji Shenyun's voice trembled slightly. Her snow-white skin flushed scarlet with shame and anger, and even the tips of her ears turned a vivid shade.

Her silver hair stirred without a wind, whipping wildly behind her like an oncoming blizzard.

"Pei Yuhang!"

she snarled, enunciating every word as killing intent flooded her eyes. "Do you think I truly don't dare to kill you?!"

Spiritual Power billowed around Ji Shenyun. With a faint lift of a slender finger, the entire Underground Palace began to tremble.

She said in a glacial tone, "Killing you would be as easy as flicking a finger!"

But Pei Yuhang suddenly pressed even closer, the tip of his nose nearly brushing her cheek.

Ji Shenyun reflexively recoiled, revealing a flicker of panic—a subtle opening that he did not miss.

"So?"

He chuckled, his warm breath grazing her sensitive earlobe. "But would you have the heart to kill me, Her Majesty the Empress?"

"After all, no one else can give you a pleasure more sublime than that of an Immortal."

"You can try it. Start avoiding me now... Within three days, at most, your body will be wracked with withdrawal, a craving like ten thousand ants gnawing at your heart."

Ji Shenyun's pupils suddenly contracted, and her long eyelashes trembled violently.

She bit down hard on her lower lip, and for the first time, a flicker of uncertainty appeared in her sharp gaze.

"You can go see Nangong Jin today. If you want to see her again, you'll have to wait three days."

"Deal."

Pei Yuhang nodded. Seeing Ji Shenyun concede, he was smart enough not to press his luck.

He strode leisurely out of Ji Shenyun's sight.

Only after he was completely away from Ji Shenyun did Pei Yuhang finally release the breath he had been holding.

His body trembled and he leaned against the stone wall behind him. Feeling the damp chill seep into his pores, he realized he was drenched in a cold sweat.

Pei Yuhang took a deep breath and looked down at his reddened palm, the memory of its soft, supple impact still lingering.

'The... the gamble paid off... She really didn't kill me.'

'Ji Shenyun's tolerance for my actions has grown... My chances of escape have increased to sixty percent!'

Pei Yuhang clenched his fists. After calming his turbulent heart, he got up and walked towards the dungeon where Junior Sister Nangong was being held.

'Next, I must give all of this precious Saint's Spiritual Energy I just got from Ji Shenyun to Junior Sister Nangong.'

Seduce Ji Shenyun, let her drown in her desires, obtain her Spiritual Qi, and then transfer it to Junior Sister Nangong.

This was Pei Yuhang's plan.

'But she can never know about this sordid process... Otherwise... she would probably be disgusted by her defiled senior brother.'

With his eyes downcast, Pei Yuhang walked toward the dungeon.
