Chapter 1387: Chapter 1346: Ancient Battlefield

“Do you have some kind of misunderstanding about coupling?”

Lu Chuan struggled to push Yun Yan away, but despite the seemingly delicate and frail body, it contained an unyielding strength. No matter how much effort Lu Chuan exerted, he couldn’t budge Yun Yan in the slightest as she continued to drain his yang energy.

The entire ordeal lasted just under thirty seconds, yet Lu Chuan felt as though half his being had been hollowed out. His consciousness blurred, his head spun, and his body became light as a feather, completely devoid of strength.

“What… what did you do to me?”

Only after Yun Yan smacked her lips in satisfaction, pushing aside Lu Chuan’s Divine Sense and letting him collapse to the ground, did she tease, “Not bad, your physique is impressive, you know. If it were anyone else, they’d last only a few seconds before turning into dried husks. But you’ve lasted this long without harming your foundation—True Dragon Destiny truly lives up to its name.”

“Wait… this qualifies as coupling?”

“What else do you think? Who said there’s only one way to go about it? For me, as long as I can extract the yang energy within you, the method doesn’t matter.”

“Alright then… Can you help me up? I… I can’t stand.”

“Tsk tsk tsk, where did all that bravado from before go? Fine, seeing as you didn’t resist earlier, I’ll help you.”

Saying this, Yun Yan walked forward unhurriedly, extending her slim, jade-like hand before Lu Chuan.

In the next moment, however, Lu Chuan darted forward, grabbing Yun Yan’s slender waist and clutching the longest of her nine tails, sliding his fingers along it from the base to the tip. Yun Yan let out a sharp yelp as her cheeks flushed deep red.

“You! You’ve got some nerve—how dare you trick me while I’m being kind?”

“Doesn’t it feel amazing? Yun Ji told me about this. Too bad she never let me grab hers. Didn’t think it’d come in handy now.”

Lu Chuan grinned widely, thinking to himself: Since she drained me dry, how could I not exact a bit of revenge?

Clearly, Yun Yan wasn’t pleased. The blush faded from her face, replaced by a piercing gaze from her fox-like eyes. Coldly, she said, “Do you want to lose that hand of yours? I can help chop it off!”

Lu Chuan, unfazed, shrugged and replied nonchalantly, “Our transaction is over now. As the master of the Demon Suppression Pagoda, I’m under the protection of the Tower Spirit. Try and touch me, and see if the Tower Spirit intervenes.”

“You… you really have guts!”

Yun Yan, though angry, could only swallow her grievance, biting her silvery teeth as she glared furiously at Lu Chuan.

“Glaring won’t help. A look can’t kill people; otherwise, I’d have died a thousand times over. Oh, by the way, next time you need energy, just let me know. In exchange, let me touch your tail. It’s all fuzzy and pretty comfy.”

Despite Yun Yan’s predatory glare, Lu Chuan laughed and walked away, heading for the second level of the Demon Suppression Pagoda.

“You shouldn’t have provoked her.”

The Tower Spirit chimed in at the right moment. “That woman is terribly petty. If the opportunity arises, she’ll definitely seek revenge.”

“Doesn’t matter, I’ve got you, haven’t I?”

“I won’t always protect you. Unless your life is in danger, I won’t intervene lightly.”

“Then I’ll just avoid her as much as possible. Oh, Tower Spirit, can you stop her from forcibly dragging my Divine Sense into the Demon Suppression Pagoda? It hurts.”

“I can.”

As the words fell, a beam of light slowly condensed and merged into Lu Chuan’s brow.

“With this barrier, your Divine Sense won’t be easily injured by external forces.”

“Thanks a lot. By the way, I feel like my Realm is approaching its limits, as if I’m on the brink of a breakthrough. When the time comes, I’ll need your protection.”

“Hmm.”

With the Tower Spirit’s assurance, Lu Chuan breathed a sigh of relief, his Divine Sense returning to his body.

Feeling that Lu Chuan’s body was no longer stiff, Xiu Niang immediately flipped him onto the ground, pulling out a long spear and fiercely stabbing at his chest.

Unfortunately, the spear was already weathered, and Lu Chuan’s body was solid as iron. The spear tip disintegrated into powder upon impact, leaving him unscathed.

“Alright, stop throwing tantrums. Everything I’m doing is so we can survive in the Ancient Ruins. Without that Soul-Attracting Bell, we’d have been encircled and killed by Resentful Spirits long ago.”

“Who told you to suddenly drop asleep without saying anything? You drove me mad!”

Xiu Niang slammed the broken spear’s butt against Lu Chuan’s head, causing a ringing sound before the spear butt ricocheted away.

Lu Chuan struggled to get to his feet, his steps weak and unsteady.

What could he do? He’d been completely drained by Yun Yan, leaving not a drop behind—this was an entirely new experience for him.

“Where are we now?”

“I got lost! I don’t know where we are either!”

Xiu Niang blushed deeply, turning her head away and mumbling softly, “I’ve always had a poor sense of direction. Now that you’ve passed out, I have no idea which direction we’re in.”

“Still, being lost in here doesn’t make a big difference, does it?”

As far as the eye could see, it was an endless wasteland strewn with remnants of soldiers and shattered armors—but nothing else.

“We don’t know if the time flow here aligns with the outside. If it’s different, we’ll have to hurry.”

Thinking this through, Lu Chuan sighed helplessly, saying, “Tower Spirit, I need help.”

“Ancient Battlefield, Shattered Space.”

“Straight to the point. And?”

“You’re currently at the edge of the Ancient Battlefield, not yet in its heart. Only its center contains true opportunities.”

“Which direction should I go in then?”

Upon hearing that, the Tower Spirit fell silent, leaving Lu Chuan puzzled as he pressed on, “Don’t tell me even you don’t know?”

“Space is fragmented, like a broken bridge. No matter how far you walk on it, you’ll never reach the other side.”

“How can we enter another spatial fragment then?”

“Find the Altar, offer a sacrifice, and traverse the void.”

The Tower Spirit’s reply was concise and straightforward.

Well then, there’s the issue:

“… Where’s the Altar?”

“Find it yourself! I don’t know everything. Don’t you think you’re a bit too reliant on me, Lu Chuan?”

“Can’t help it, you’re so knowledgeable. You seem to know everything—who else should I rely on? Besides, we’re basically one entity. If I die, how long will it take you to find another suitable master?”

“Let me reiterate: you are **not** my master. We are merely partners!”

Lu Chuan shrugged, replying with exasperation, “Fine, fine, partners. Now, as a partner, don’t you think you should tell me a bit about your origins?”

“Just now, Yun Yan—that Fox Seducer—claimed you were a woman. Is that true?”
