Ancient Devouring Technique

Chapter 970 Concubine's Words
A streak of light flashed across the sky.

In the escaping light, Ye Xuan held Nalan Mingyue in his arms, her beautiful eyes wide open, still in a trance.

She would rather die than be a furnace for others, so she risked her life earlier. And she really made the right bet. This Mr. Ye used his terrifying strength to intimidate all the warriors present and brought her out from the Nalan family.

The Great Elder, whom she had originally feared so much, was extremely angry, but he dared not speak out.

All this made her feel surprised and happy, and it felt like a dream.

At this moment, her body was hidden in Ye Xuan's arms. The two of them had already left the two warriors behind and flew away in the white clouds.

While she was pleasantly surprised, she couldn't help but feel a little worried about her future, but since she had made the choice she had made, she would not regret it.

Along the way, Nalan Mingyue fell silent, without saying a word while escaping, as if she had left everything to Ye Xuan.

Ye Xuan also flew against the wind with him without saying a word.

As a result, half a day later, Ye Xuan finally found a deserted island in the vast ocean and landed.

There are several mountains nearly a hundred meters high on the island, which are lush and green, and have many giant trees.

"Let's take a rest here first. We are still some distance away from the city you mentioned." Ye Xuan brought Nalan Mingyue to the stream in the valley, sat on a white stone, and said with a smile.

"Thank you, sir!" Nalan Mingyue said with a blush on her face under Ye Xuan's gaze, looking a little overwhelmed!
"Young Master?" Ye Xuan laughed.

"I'm sorry, I, I should call you..." Nalan Mingyue lowered her head in panic, with hesitation on her face.

She really didn't know how to address this young master after becoming his concubine.
"Just call me Ye Xuan!" Ye Xuan said.

"Ye Xuan? Yes, Ye...Master Xuan!" Nalan Mingyue was a little confused, but then she realized that Ye Xuan had used a fake name before. After hesitating for a moment, she called him obediently.

Ye Xuan shook his head, thought about what he was saying, and then said gently:
"Now I have brought you out of the Nalan family as agreed, and I will also give you some protective items and training resources. As long as you refine the 'Jusheng Pill' for me, then we will be even."

Nalan Mingyue's delicate body trembled, and she was stunned for a moment. Her jade face showed a look of surprise and she said, "Master Ye Xuan, don't you plan to let me be your concubine?"

"Haha, I'm used to coming and going alone, so I don't need a concubine to warm me up." Ye Xuan said with a gentle smile.

Nalan Mingyue was a little bit unbelievable and was in a daze for a moment. After a moment, she showed hesitation on her jade face and shook her head slightly:

"Thank you for your kindness! Since I have said before that I will be your concubine, I have never thought of going back on my word. Please rest assured. Mingyue will keep her promise and will not have any complaints."

Nalan Mingyue's parents died at an early age. She was more mature than other girls of the same age in the family. In addition, many young men were spying on her, and even the elder warriors in the clan looked at her with a hint of possession, which made her subconsciously believe that all men in the world are lustful and would not let go of a beautiful woman on their own when they met her.

"I didn't mean to test you. What I said just now was true. But if you really want to be my concubine, I won't refuse. But don't regret it once you enter the room!" Ye Xuan vaguely guessed the girl's concerns and said with a smile.

He didn't believe that Nalan Mingyue fell in love with him at first sight and was completely bewildered and wanted to be his concubine.

He knows his reputation, so if it was a handsome man like Bai Feng, it would be possible.

And when she proposed this condition before, it was obviously out of helplessness.

You know, although a concubine cannot compare to a wife who practices dual cultivation, she is much stronger than a furnace cauldron. At least she can practice normally and improve her martial arts skills without having to endure the extreme pain of collecting Yin!
Think about the scene when he was practicing dual cultivation with Ying Tianzhu, when Ying Tianzhu's body became a cauldron, and her delicate body trembled in pain as her Yin essence was sucked out. Her fair, graceful and smooth body turned a strange red color, which was enough to show that this cauldron was not fun.

Moreover, Ye Xuan also knew that some dual cultivation techniques were far more cruel than the ones he had practiced with Ying Tianzhu. During one dual cultivation session, a female cauldron could lose all her blood and die!

Although he was somewhat attracted by Nalan Mingyue's appearance, he had his own principles.

Although he practiced dual yin and yang with Ying Tianzhu in the beginning, he and Tianyin Xuannv were both very rational people. They knew that a warrior should put martial arts first, and naturally knew how to make choices when faced with such a great opportunity.

"I..." After hearing what Ye Xuan said, Nalan Mingyue finally began to doubt in her heart, but she didn't know how to start the conversation for a while.

"Haha, what's the matter? Do you really want to be my concubine?" Ye Xuan touched his chin and looked at the girl in front of him with a smile.

"No! No, I...I would like to thank you very much, sir! Mingyue, I will never forget your kindness in the future!" Nalan Mingyue blurted out anxiously. Then, she was startled, bit her lips and bowed to Ye Xuan, and said, with an uneasy look on her face.

"Well, that's it. Just forget about what I said and you don't have to take it to heart anymore." Ye Xuan nodded and said casually.

"Thank you for your help, sir!"

Nalan Mingyue was so surprised that her face suddenly blossomed, shining brightly and charmingly.
The beauty's smile was so charming that Ye Xuan couldn't help but feel a ripple in his heart.

"Miss Mingyue, let's talk about the refining of the 'Jusheng Pill'! As for the alchemy furnace you mentioned before, don't worry about it. What do you think of this thing..."

As he spoke, Ye Xuan touched the storage ring with his right hand, and suddenly a canopy of crystal starlight sprinkled out.

Suddenly, a fist-sized tripod with twinkling starlight quietly floated on the palm of his right hand, as if countless stars were twinkling, looking extremely mysterious.

It was he who killed the ancestor of the Li family before.

When Nalan Mingyue saw Xiaoding, she couldn't help but cover her mouth with her jade hands, revealing an extremely shocked expression.

"This is...!" Nalan Mingyue had a very high talent and persistence in alchemy. Facing such an alchemy cauldron, her beautiful eyes could not be moved away for a moment.

Seeing the girl's excited face, her breathing quickened, her little chest heaving slightly, Ye Xuan found it funny that this little Lolita was still an elixir fanatic.

"Ouch!" Nalan Mingyue suddenly screamed and covered her mouth with her little hands.

Ye Xuan was stunned and asked, "What's wrong?"

Nalan Mingyue looked at Ye Xuan with her beautiful eyes in surprise and said, "Are you the Ye Xuan from the Fallen Phoenix Valley that was rumored a few months ago?"
