CHAPTER 477: CHAPTER 476 ENCHANTING_1

Where the sword’s shadow passed, fallen leaves flew forth, and the very essence of the earth and sky around teemed with sharp Sword Intent.

Invincible under the sky, Earth-splitting King-sealing, Seeking Defeat With All Heart.

The primary condition for practicing this Swordsmanship is to possess Invincible Sword Intent and an invincible heart. Only with such Sword Intent can one achieve an invincible mindset, truly grasping the majestic demeanor of standing atop the world and beholding the insignificance of other mountains.

After practicing continuously for three hours, Ling Chen had just become familiar with the superficial aspects of two more moves. Even with the first move, ’Invincible under the sky,’ fully mastering its essence would still require more time.

From continuous sword practice and mental focus, Ling Chen was perspiring heavily.

Having practiced for so long, my body feels sticky. I remember Mother mentioning a Jade Liquid Spirit Pool nearby. It would be perfect for a bath.

With a slight press of his foot, Ling Chen soared, leaping over trees and landing on top of a pavilion.

Looking ahead, not far from there, was a misty pool. A delicate mist rose from it, filled with abundant Spiritual Qi.

It should be over there.

Ling Chen’s gaze fell on the misty area, where it seemed an Array Formation was deployed all around.

However, this Array Formation was not an intricate Maze. Ling Chen could easily discern it. Without much effort, he swiftly arrived by the pool.

Without saying a word, Ling Chen removed his clothes and jumped naked into the pool.

Comfortable!

Ling Chen felt every cell in his body relax. Extremely gentle Energy soaked into his body through every pore, rapidly filling him.

His whole body was incredibly relaxed.

The comfort caused Ling Chen to moan involuntarily, closing his eyes to relish the sensation.

SPLASH! SPLASH!

At that moment, the sound of water splashing not far away startled Ling Chen, causing him to open his eyes.

Moving his gaze forward, Ling Chen seemed to catch a glimpse of a pale figure flickering beneath the water.

Hmm? What’s that?

Ling Chen’s expression shifted slightly as he concentrated his attention. The pale figure’s aura was unusual, visible one moment and hidden the next, making Ling Chen wary.

Could it be some Exotic Beast?

With this thought, Ling Chen immediately shed his laissez-faire attitude, completely concealing his aura, and quietly approached the pale figure.

When he neared the figure, Ling Chen abruptly circulated his True Qi and plunged his hand into the water.

In an instant, his grab caught an exceptionally soft object, full and bouncy, just like a balloon.

This wonderful sensation immediately made Ling Chen’s heart flutter, while at the same time rousing his curiosity. Which part of an Exotic Beast could feel so delightful?

Gripping that softness, Ling Chen saw the pale figure underneath the water slowly emerge.

First, a cascade of extremely dark hair appeared, like a black waterfall. Further down was an exquisitely beautiful face, breathtaking and captivating.

Her skin was as fair as cream, smooth and soft, more delicate than tofu. As Ling Chen gazed at the water dripping from her damp hair, he was spellbound at first glance, but in the next moment, he recognized her features.

With such Qingcheng beauty, peerless in her generation, who else could it be but Xia Yunxin?

His mouth hung agape as a roar filled Ling Chen’s mind.

"The environment here is nice. Back there, there’s a Jade Liquid Spirit Pool. Regular Cultivation there can greatly aid one’s Cultivation. However, Yun Xin often frequents it, so if you want to cultivate there, you’d better notify her."

Suddenly, Ling Chen remembered Liu Xiling’s words. She had told him to inform Xia Yunxin in advance, yet he had impulsively decided to take a bath here. This is a disaster!

If Xia Yunxin were to scream now, my lifelong reputation would be ruined!

Ling Chen lowered his gaze to find his hand grasping Xia Yunxin’s right breast perfectly. He had even applied such pressure that his finger marks were indented into the snowy peak.

So big! My hand can’t even grasp it completely.

Ling Chen couldn’t help but feel surprised. Xia Yunxin usually wore loose nightgowns and black skirts, making her chest contour hard to discern. He had assumed she was average, not expecting this unbelievably full figure, like a small, rounded pomelo.

However, Xia Yunxin’s reaction was not as violent as he had imagined. There were no screams or shouts. Instead, she remained very calm, a teasing smile even tugging at the corner of her lips.

"Hey, just how long do you plan to keep touching?"

Her eyes shifted down to Ling Chen’s hand, still firmly grasping her right breast, and she teased him with a smile.

"I’m... I’m sorry..."

Ling Chen quickly let go, his face growing ever more embarrassed. If escaping wouldn’t make things even worse, he would have bolted by now.

And upon releasing his grip, as he glanced from the corner of his eye, he could vaguely spot two crimson points through the translucent water, like ripe grapes.

Suddenly, Ling Chen felt a rush of heat within his body.

"Have you seen enough?"

Xia Yunxin crossed her slender, fair arms over her chest, concealing her exposed beauty, while Ling Chen quickly averted his gaze.

"I... I just accidentally wandered in here."

As Ling Chen slowly backed away, a forced laugh escaped him. "I didn’t see anything. Let’s just pretend nothing happened today, okay?"

While speaking, he planned to seize the opportunity to slip away.

However, just as Ling Chen took two steps back, Xia Yunxin strode forward, her hand gently resting on his back. Her face was close enough for him to hear her breathing clearly. "First you stole my first kiss, now you’ve touched me and seen all of me. According to the rules of the Righteous Martial World, am I bound to marry you now?"

"Heh, you’re a Demonic Path Follower; you don’t need to abide by the rules of the Righteous Path," Ling Chen replied, feeling troubled. Xia Yunxin’s seduction was more than he could handle. Any ordinary man would have already pounced.

But Ling Chen wasn’t a man to let his lower half do the thinking. Even if he did do something with Xia Yunxin today, it probably wouldn’t be a big deal, but he already had Xu Ruoyan in his heart. He definitely couldn’t juggle affections for two women at once.

"Oh, so you say it doesn’t matter? I’m the one at a loss here. No, you must take responsibility."

As she spoke, Xia Yunxin moved behind Ling Chen, wrapping her arms around him from behind. Then, leaning her pretty face against his back, she said with a laugh, "What’s so special about that little girl Xu Ruoyan? You should be with me. Let’s live our days like immortals, in bliss."

"Everyone is unique; there’s no basis for comparison."

Ling Chen shook his head, then turned to look at Xia Yunxin seriously, his hands resting on her shoulders. "I know you’re just joking. How about this: I’ll promise you one thing, and we’ll pretend today never happened. Alright?"

Xia Yunxin was a peerless beauty, a temptation for any man. Moreover, she had saved him multiple times and was his mother’s Disciple. Although she appeared to be a frivolous and promiscuous temptress on the surface, this wasn’t her true nature. Despite exuding a sensual aura, she was actually warm on the surface but cold and reserved within.

His relationship with Xu Ruoyan was still a tangled mess, their misunderstandings yet to be cleared. If he were to become intimate with another woman at this time, he feared he would drift even further from Xu Ruoyan.
