“Esteemed alchemists, how is my father?” In a residence in Yao City, a man with a deathly pale face lay on the bed. At the bedside stood a mature and alluring woman. She wore a tight-fitting outfit that perfectly outlined her voluptuous figure. Every movement she made was captivating, exuding an innate charm from her very bones. Her plump, rosy lips were like rose petals in the morning mist, curving with ultimate temptation. Yet her soft hands were clenched tightly, revealing the tension in her heart.
The several alchemists looked at this alluring Bai Xuan, their eyes burning with desire. This woman was far too seductive. From deep within, she radiated a lazy, enchanting allure, her beauty blooming like a newlywed young wife. It was enough to make one’s mouth water.
“Auntie! Their eyes are looking at you so strangely!” Yao Yao stood beside Bai Xuan, tugging at her clothes and speaking innocently. The words made Bai Xuan’s face flush red, adding even more charm.
Only then did the alchemists react, subtly shifting their gazes away. The leader among them stepped forward and said, “Your father’s illness is due to murderous aura invading his body, and it is no ordinary murderous aura. It is extremely troublesome!”
The words drained the colour from Bai Xuan’s face. Her body staggered back several steps, and she only steadied herself by grabbing the bed frame. Bai Xuan naturally knew what murderous aura was. It was something hugely harmful to the cultivation world. Countless cultivators had died because of it. Once murderous aura entered the body and was not expelled in time, survival was unlikely.
Bai Xuan finally understood why her father had collapsed unconscious before her shortly after returning. Her sister and brother-in-law had both died unnatural deaths. If even her father now…
Thinking of this, mist rose in Bai Xuan’s eyes. Her beautiful gaze turned red as she pleaded, “Alchemists, please save my father!”
“Though murderous aura has invaded your father, it is not entirely hopeless!” A lewd glint flashed in the alchemist’s eyes before he subtly moved his gaze from Bai Xuan’s mature and alluring body. “However, treating him would greatly damage our vital energy. This…”
“Whatever the consultation fee, name your price!” Bai Xuan said quickly.
“Damaged vital energy cannot be restored with mere fees!” The lead alchemist, Huang Yong’an, shook his head.
“Then what do you need?” Bai Xuan asked urgently. “Whatever I have, just say it!”
“Heh heh! There is something! But I fear you will not give it!” Huang Yong’an laughed sinisterly, his eyes roaming up and down Bai Xuan’s exquisite figure, burning with heat.
By now, how could Bai Xuan not understand what he wanted? Her already pale, stunning face turned even whiter.
“The young lady is clever! If you agree, your father may yet be saved. If not, I’m afraid…” Huang Yong’an said with a sinister smile. “Decide for yourself.”
“Get out! Get out!” Bai Xuan finally exploded in anger, glaring furiously at Huang Yong’an and the others, flames of rage in her eyes.
“Very well! But let me say this upfront. In all of Yao City, few besides me can save your father from this murderous aura. If I do not treat him, he may not survive the night!” Huang Yong’an laughed sinisterly, his gaze lewdly sweeping over Bai Xuan’s body. This woman was a supreme beauty. To taste her, he would gladly lose years of life.
“Since the young lady is willing to watch her father die from the murderous aura, Huang has nothing more to say! Farewell!” Huang Yong’an cupped his hands and made to leave.
“Wait!” Bai Xuan called out, her body trembling, her expression pale. She glanced at her father lying weakly on the bed. After a long moment, she parted her rosy lips, biting the petal-like flesh. “I agree!”
“Good! Good!” Huang Yong’an laughed heartily. The other alchemists beside him looked envious. Staring at the peerless beauty before them, some greedily swallowed saliva. Yet none dared compete with Huang Yong’an.
“Since you agree, come with me!” With that, Huang Yong’an reached for Bai Xuan’s soft, tender hand.
“What are you doing?” Bai Xuan instinctively retreated several steps, backing against the bed frame, her voice sharp and furious.
“What? Are you going back on your word?” Huang Yong’an snorted.
The words steadied Bai Xuan. Her face ashen, she lowered her resistance and stood quietly, as if her soul had been drained.
“So be it.” Bai Xuan smiled bitterly. For years, countless men had coveted her body. Navigating among them, she had long grown weary. Before, her powerful father had protected her. Though many eyed her hungrily, none had succeeded. But now, with her father in this state, if her body could save his life, what harm in giving it to them?
Seeing Bai Xuan stand motionless, Huang Yong’an nodded in satisfaction. “That is more like it! If you are obedient, I will certainly save your father’s life!”
As he spoke, Huang Yong’an reached again for Bai Xuan’s hand. Faced with such a beauty, he was clearly impatient, wanting to pull her into the next room.
Watching the claw draw nearer, about to touch her body, Bai Xuan’s face turned deathly pale. A cloud of dead silence covered her heart. Her body trembled at the thought of being pressed beneath this middle-aged, fat frame. Despair filled her, yet she could not refuse.
Huang Yong’an wore a triumphant smile. He had long desired this woman. Before, her formidable father had blocked him, forcing him to admire from afar. But now, heaven had delivered this opportunity!
Just as his hand was about to reach her and Bai Xuan closed her eyes in resignation, a roguish voice rang out. “Heh heh! Interesting! I did not expect to witness such a fine show of coercion upon arriving here!”
The sudden voice froze Huang Yong’an’s movement. He turned to see two young men walking in slowly, smiling, their gazes fixed on the group.
“Why stare at me? Continue your villainy!” The newcomer was naturally Ye Chu. Ye Chu had not expected that the tomb robber Pang Shao mentioned would turn out to be the father of the alluring woman he had saved from the water.
“Big brother!” Yao Yao remembered Ye Chu deeply from when he saved her. She beamed a bright, childish smile, ran to him, and hugged his leg.
“You little girl still remembers me!” Ye Chu smiled as the tiny child clung to him. That even such a young girl remembered him warmed his heart. He thought to himself that his handsomeness truly knew no bounds, captivating young and old alike. Even little girls could not forget him. Being this handsome was unstoppable. It was a wonder the men who had seen him still had the courage to live!
“It is you!” Seeing Huang Yong’an’s hand stop, Bai Xuan could not help breathing a sigh of relief. But Ye Chu’s arrival puzzled her. Why was he here?
