Fighting Soul Clan Demoness

Chapter 929 Ruoruo, why are you wearing Xun'er's clothes?
"Third Young Master, it's only been a few days, how could you have forgotten all the kindness I've shown you?"

Xun'er's eyes were filled with grievance, her pair of bright golden eyes brimming with tears, and she said timidly, "The Black Corner Region is full of powerful enemies. I have traveled thousands of miles to find you, but you have spoken to me so harshly. It has truly broken my heart and soul."

"Stop talking nonsense!"

Xiao Yan was no longer sleepy at this moment. He immediately stood up, his face flushed, both surprised and frightened, as if the person in front of him was not a beautiful young woman, but a venomous beast.

"Witch, it's one thing for you to approach me under the guise of Xun'er, but you also tried to seize my Xiao family's token. In terms of cunning methods, how could my description even come close to a fraction of yours?!"

"Good young master, you have misunderstood me. From the moment we met, I have fallen in love with you at first sight and decided to pledge my life to you. Otherwise, why would I be so concerned about Eunuch Xiao?"

Xun'er's eyes reddened, her watery eyes flickering as if she was about to cry.

“But look at you, young master, not only do you not appreciate it, but you also want to kill me. I have no one left to rely on.”

However, faced with the girl's weak expression as she rolled up her sleeves and sobbed, Xiao Yan felt no pity. Instead, he became extremely vigilant.

Throughout his journey, whether facing the ruthless and brutal Snake-Man Empire or the unassailable Yunlan Sect, Xiao Yan never felt any fear. However, Hun Ruoruo was his lifelong nightmare.

No relatives or friends around?

What a joke.

This witch, whose hands are stained with blood and who even takes pleasure in killing, would never care about any so-called family ties!

Seeing Xiao Yan's wary expression, Xun'er sighed and said pitifully, "Young master is heartless, but I cannot be ungrateful. Young master, please come with me. Once I have saved your life, I will have a clear conscience."

As she finished speaking, her delicate body swayed, and a fragrant breeze wafted towards us.

Xiao Yan naturally couldn't let her get close, so he immediately distanced himself from 'Xun'er' and forcibly activated his fighting spirit.

Looking around, the Black Corner Plains were unusually quiet at this moment, probably devoid of any life.

Looking at Ling Ying again, her soul was completely gone, and even her blood had long since drained away. Only a withered head was sewn together with needle and thread and hung from her neck, clearly indicating that her life force had been drained and she had been tortured in every way.
After such a miserable end, how could he dare to associate with the demoness?!

"Hehe! Young Master Xiao Yan, we meet again." Ling Ying's smile was mechanical and stiff, carrying a chilling coldness.

Xiao Yan's forehead was covered in cold sweat. Coming to his senses, he rebuked, "You can even kill a peak Dou Huang. You witch are truly hiding your true strength!"

"Young Master, what are you saying? I am but a weak woman. If I want to maintain my integrity while traveling the martial world, I naturally need some means of self-defense. But those are nothing but unorthodox methods. How could they possibly kill a Dou Huang expert?"

"Bah! During the Alchemist Conference, Gu He was turned into a medicine slave in a fit of rage simply because he accidentally discovered your disguise as an alchemist. Four of the top ten experts lost their lives because of this!"

"Oh dear, I only admire Master Guhe's alchemy skills and wanted to observe and learn from him. It's a pity that although Master Guhe is highly respected, his soul power is much weaker. He was immediately lost in the illusion and was not as playful as you, young master."

"you--"

Xiao Yan's face turned green.

No wonder I hadn't noticed anything amiss before, no wonder I wanted to disregard etiquette and lie in Xun'er's arms. This was clearly the demoness's usual tactic—'soul manipulation'!
She had been secretly controlling herself all along!

"Kid, that woman is right. If she wanted to, she would have had a chance to launch a sneak attack earlier."

The old apothecary also looked wary and said weakly, "No matter what tricks she has up her sleeve, let's deal with her for a while and wait for my soul power to recover a little before we can break through."

These words effectively sealed off any thoughts of retreat that Xiao Yan might have had.

Their fighting spirit, physical strength, and mental energy were all exhausted. Even Yao Lao, who was their last trump card, was weakened by the previous series of battles.

It can be said that the witch's appearance was perfectly timed.
Left with no other choice, Xiao Yan's lips twitched. He took a deep breath, but ultimately resigned himself to his fate and lowered his head, forced to compromise with the demoness.

"Hehe, it seems that the Third Young Master still cares about me. Don't worry, Ruoruo is the best cauldron. As long as she is by your side, your strength will be restored in no time."

'Xun'er' giggled and took the boy's arm. Without saying a word, she pulled him away into the distance, leaving only Ling Ying, who stood alone in the windswept plain, like an empty shell.

As the sun gradually rose, Xiao Yan and Xun'er walked side by side, while Ling Ying, their bodyguard, followed behind them, smiling broadly as he watched the golden couple, a picture of harmony and beauty. "Creak...creak...Young Master Xiao Yan, we meet again."

As soon as he finished speaking, a gust of wind blew by, and Ling Ying's withered head, as dry as a dead tree, fell to the ground.

The sound stopped suddenly.

After crossing the plains, they soon arrived at Black Seal City.

Strangely enough, with the girl's company, Xiao Yan rode smoothly in the bridal sedan chair all the way, avoiding all dangers.

Not only did she successfully escape danger from the auction, but even Fan Lao, the sect leader of the Blood Sect who came to seize the treasure, was tricked by the demoness and turned into a blood slave by her secret technique.

Thus, another ox or horse was added to the front of Hun Ruoruo's bridal sedan chair.

The former refers to Guhe and the four masters.

"Young Master, you must have been injured during the battle. Oh, look at all these scars, it breaks my heart."

Inside the bridal sedan chair, Hun Ruoruo had already changed back to her usual appearance. Dressed in Xun'er's dress, she didn't look strange at all; on the contrary, she was beautiful and charming.

"Enough! You vixen! Things have come to this, why are you still wearing Xun'er's clothes? Don't think I don't know, that ancient jade is your real purpose!"

Xiao Yan, his eyes filled with apprehension, left the girl's soft, fragrant body without a second thought.

"Moreover, when it comes to scars, even Yunshan of the Yunlan Sect is far less than a fraction of the wounds you left on me!"

"Young master, why be so petty? I was so eager to save you that I lost my composure and took the wrong powder. How can you blame me?"

"Hmph... Back in the Monster Mountain Range, I repeatedly told you to fetch the medicine bottle, but you insisted on feeding me that condiment bottle instead. What else could it be but deliberate intent?!"

"Young master, you're wronging me. I clearly took the medicine powder first before handing it to you. How can it be my fault?"

"You did manage to eat it, but your pure water fighting spirit can clearly purify all the medicinal effects!"

Mentioning this matter seemed to touch upon Xiao Yan's deepest pain, his face turning bright red: "You tricked me into taking that aphrodisiac, and then you took the opportunity to slip out of the cave. Do you know how I survived?!"

Hun Ruoruo pouted and said aggrievedly, "Ruoruo just wanted to take the opportunity to get revenge on that Amethyst Winged Lion King. Besides, I got a 90/10 split of the Amethyst Source, and I gave you all the benefits!"

Xiao Yan acted out of a moment of integrity.

Yes, she shared the associated amethyst source with herself, but what was the price?

She pretended to take an aphrodisiac and ran outside the cave alone, causing the terrified Xiao Yan to rush out of the cave at all costs to rescue her, only to find that she was a female monkey that had transformed into a different form.

Then, hundreds of apes, upon smelling the special scent of the demoness on him, launched a frenzied attack on him, causing such a commotion that it attracted most of the magical beasts in the entire Magical Beast Mountain Range.

This naturally includes the Amethyst Winged Lion King!

In other words, while he was surrounded, the demoness leisurely strolled around the entire Lion King's cave, turning it upside down, before finally emerging to ambush and kill the Amethyst Winged Lion King.

For a full half hour, if Xiao Yan hadn't desperately scratched countless scars on his body and barely regained his senses to escape, he would have either been swallowed by the Lion King and turned into beast dung, or fallen into the ape horde and unable to extricate himself!
As for the claim of a 90/10 split, that's utter nonsense. It's clearly because the demoness's attributes were extremely yin, making it difficult for her to touch the scorching core of the symbiotic amethyst source, which is why she forced him to lick up the remaining bits of residue.
Who could tolerate such a trap?!

Seeing Xiao Yan grow increasingly angry, Hun Ruoruo's blue-purple eyes sparkled, and her voice became shy and timid, like a girl next door experiencing her first love.

"Young Master, please don't be angry. Back then, Ruoruo was under eighteen, so naturally she had to keep her chastity for the person she loved. But things are different now. If Young Master agrees..."

She raised her head slightly and stared intently at Xiao Yan, as if unwilling to miss the expectations of her beloved, and boldly extended a shy invitation.

"How about Ruoruo marries the young master tonight?"
