Chapter 934: Chapter 581 Terrifying

Rainwater drizzled down.

After the warning, Xu Yuan went to the study to pick a few peculiar journals and continued to read while listening to the rain.

His proactive warning was quite risky, but he was extremely confident that Lady Wan would not dare to make a move recklessly.

Based on the information he held, Xu Yuan was certain that Lady Wan harbored a strong fear towards him.

Specifically towards him, and not towards Ran Qingmo and Bai Muxi.

It’s worth noting that Tianyan and Su Jinxuan were acting together, yet now only the humiliating Enchantress Divine Physique, Su Jinxuan, remains, alone and mentally controlled here.

Yantian Art, as the treasure of Jiatiange—a sect that had dominated for tens of thousands of years—enables its Celestial Fates Divine Soul to directly avoid any Soul Control Secret Techniques.

Most likely, Lady Wan’s methods would be ineffective against Tianyan.

In other words,

Before Xu Yuan arrived at this estate, Tianyan most likely had an encounter with Lady Wan, and had been defeated without injuring her.

This means that Lady Wan possesses at least the strength of Mortal Transcendence.

Such strength suggests that even if both Grandmaster Peak figures, Ran Qingmo and Bai Muxi, had broken through to Primordial, they would still not be a match for that sinister Lady Wan.

However, the reality was that she chose to undertake such elaborate and hidden preparations.

Eliminating the two women, and also excluding the humiliated Enchantress already under soul control, doesn’t that leave only him, Xu Yuan, as the foreigner in the entire estate?

It isn’t hard to guess why Lady Wan fears him.

Because of his unique physique, and also because he wears the Soul-avoiding Clothes that evade all detection.

Together, these aspects form a mysterious veil around him, restraining her from acting rashly.

Thinking of this made Xu Yuan stop his train of thought; he did not wish to delve deeper into Tianyan’s affairs.

The more he pondered over the situation, the harder it was to suppress the murderous intent in his heart.

Since arriving in this world, Xu Yuan had been angry over many issues, and had felt murderous intentions towards others.

But those were only to the extent of killing them.

Yet, the master of this estate was the first, and the only one, Xu Yuan wanted to torment between life and death.

Whenever he thought about the Saintess, who’s currently missing, a suffocating weight settled in Xu Yuan’s chest.

If something really happened to Tianyan here...

Unconsciously, Xu Yuan slightly clenched the ancient text in his hand.

He would let Lady Wan, who had endured his murderous intentions, have her child well fed and safely born,

Then,

He would let her truly experience what real hell is like!

"Pitter-patter—"

Time trickled by, and the pitter-patter of the light rain seemed to wash away all filth.

Burying his head in his books, Xu Yuan read the ancient records in his hands while the sound of rain outside the pavilion gradually subsided.

Realizing this, his gaze momentarily swept over the seemingly boundless curtain of misty rain.

It had stopped in less than half an hour...had she chosen to compromise?

The light rain had gradually dissipated within the time it takes to brew a pot of tea, but the enveloping mist in the narrow valley still lingered.

Under Xu Yuan’s Spiritual Vision, his furrowed brow gradually relaxed.

It was natural for rain to stop suddenly, but the mist was dissipating at a slow pace.

This was more in accordance with natural laws.

This was Lady Wan giving both sides a way out.

With a light humph, Xu Yuan also put away his rocking chair and headed towards the main guest hall of the three-section courtyard.

Since she had compromised, he should now go and demand compensation.

To avoid revealing his true strength, he must present himself as an equal to Lady Wan.

And as an equal, having your conspiracies discovered naturally means you ought to pay a price.

As the fine rain ceased to stir, the mist temporarily grew denser.

Walking through the dim fog, Xu Yuan quickly contemplated his next move in his mind.

The threat of Ran Qingmo and Bai Muxi being controlled had been temporarily lifted; he no longer needed to spend mental energy and precious Origin Qi conducting thorough examinations on the two women every night.

However, the trouble still remained.

Because Xu Yuan still needed to figure out a way to rescue Su Jinxuan.

This was a very tricky matter.

The reason Lady Wan compromised after receiving his warning was largely because neither party had reached the point of forging a deadly feud; even if there was indeed plotting, it was discovered before fruition, and dying over such an issue would be a risk for both parties, making a satisfactory compensation more in line with the interests of both.

And if Lady Wan discovered the relationship between him and Su Jinxuan, the nature of the whole matter would instantly change.

Therefore, the task of waking up the shameful demon had to be quietly carried on in secret.

And here lay the thorniest issue.

Although Bai Muxi’s thoughts were influenced that day, her mind was still intact, so she cooperatively helped him remove those impurities.

But Su Jinxuan was now completely brainwashed and controlled by Lady Wan; would she cooperate with him?

Even if he designed a plan trying hard to create a righteous two-on-one situation for Ran Qingmo and Bai Muxi to control this enchantress, Xu Yuan did not dare to recklessly infuse his Origin Qi into her body.

Though it was a bit shameful, Su Jinxuan’s physique of Enchantress Divine Physique was indeed genuine.

If he forcibly infused Qi, he wasn’t brainwashed by Lady Wan, but being controlled by Su Jinxuan would be rather funny.

Troublesome.

"Phew..."

Sighing deeply, Xu Yuan slightly gathered his thoughts.

He still knew too little about Lady Wan, fundamentally unable to construct a complete plan.

If it really was not feasible, he would have to wait for people from Di’an to arrive before making further plans.

While thinking, Xu Yuan suddenly caught a glimpse of a shadow in the mist at the corner ahead from the corner of his eye.

The figure appeared abruptly, yet seemed as if it had always been standing there.

At the corner of the wall, not tall, about a meter, resembling a child but somewhat deformed, with a pair of ghostly cold eyes visible from the position of its head.

Ah...

So that’s how it is...

In that instant when he saw that thing, Xu Yuan suddenly understood everything.

Why he could feel a familiar aura from Lady Wan.

Why he could improve his cultivation through Lady Wan’s spellcraft.

Haha.

...

...

...

In the narrow corridor, a tall and elegant man in embroidered robes walked calmly.

And it just quietly crouched there, silently staring at him, its greedy gaze solely following him.

And Xu Yuan continued to walk forward unhurriedly as if he hadn’t noticed.

"Tap..."

"Tap..."

The dim mist seemed devoid of any light, the world seemingly left with only the occasional plink of water dripping from the eaves into the pond.

Until,

Just as he was about to pass by this dark shadow, Xu Yuan suddenly stopped.

Then,

Slowly, he turned his gaze towards this strange dark shadow.

His eyes deep,

His lips slightly parted, revealing his chilling white teeth:

"Young friend, do you need something?"

"....."

In a trance,

In the midst of the mist,

Countless eerie willow branches suddenly filled the entire corridor, with numerous horrifying corpses hanging from them, swaying slightly in the post-rain breeze...
