Seeing Ye Lingyue's ears turn red, yet remaining silent, Bo Qing listlessly played with Ye Lingyue's hair and discovered that her hair was also very nice, black and soft.

Bo Qing, impulsively, blinked and quietly began using the Jueqing Sect's Soul Capturing and Heart Confusing Technique.

Her jade hand wrapped around Ye Lingyue, and her body restlessly twisted and turned.

Had it been any other man, he would have reacted by now, but Ye Lingyue remained completely indifferent.

This was indeed strange; was there actually someone immune to her Soul Capturing and Heart Confusing Technique's enchantment?

"Bo Qing, if you keep moving about, believe it or not, I'll throw you onto the ground," Ye Lingyue said with irritation. If it weren't for the two maps Bo Qing carried, she would have already kicked her away, the farther the better.

When Ye Lingyue got angry, she glared at Bo Qing.

"The protectors always say that I am an oddity, naturally attracting both men and women. But I think this Hong Shisan is also a natural-born demon. Seeing how he gets angry, I'm afraid he is in no way inferior to me," Bo Qing thought, feeling her breath hitch, her fox-like eyes shifted, and she didn't dare to use the Soul Capturing and Heart Confusing Technique anymore.

Encountering such an opponent, Bo Qing's interest in Ye Lingyue grew even more. It seemed that this trip to the Taiyi Secret Realm was getting more and more interesting.

After two days and one night of traversing mountains and rivers, the group finally reached the main peak beneath the Cang Mountain Range.

"It's no wonder the ancients said, 'After visiting Cang Mountain, one will no longer see other mountains as mountains.'" Boss He admired the majestic mountain that pierced the clouds like a sword, his face filled with reverence.

Whether they were Alchemists or Martial Artists, no matter how advanced their cultivation, they were always minuscule in the face of nature and all living things.

"Finally here, treasures of the Taiyi Secret Realm, I'm coming for you," Bo Qing saw Cang Mountain and, like a monkey, jumped off Ye Lingyue's back, spread her arms, and shouted towards the Kuocang Mountain.

"It's a bit too early to claim the treasures of the secret realm as your own," came a voice from a Tea House at the foot of Kuocang Mountain, as several men and women emerged.

When Ye Lingyue saw the two leading individuals, her face changed slightly.

Crown Prince Hong and Hong Yulang, why were they here?

Ye Lingyue was already disguised as a man, with some modifications to her face, and her male attire was quite different from her usual female appearance. The shocked expression on her face flickered and quickly returned to calm.

Apart from Hong Yulang, Crown Prince Hong's entourage included An Minxia and several Martial Artists. Among them, a middle-aged man whose cultivation had reached the Reincarnation Fourth Path, was none other than Duke An, one of the Four Great Noble Marquis of Daxia.

So it turned out that the other mysterious force from Daxia was Crown Prince Hong and Duke An, among others.

"Who would have thought that the two from Treasure Cave were actually from the Miao Shou Kong Kong Thief Sect," Duke An said, slightly moved upon seeing Boss He and Third Brother He.

Boss He and Third Brother He also didn't look too happy; they had not expected to run into acquaintances.

What caught the attention of Crown Prince Hong and his group, however, was the provocatively dressed red-clothed woman, Bo Qing.

Especially for Hong Yulang, who was practically dropping his eyes at the sight of Bo Qing.

How could there be such a beautiful woman in this world? Her every frown and smile, her voice and demeanor, were deeply etched into Hong Yulang's heart.

An Minxia couldn't hide her disgust upon seeing Bo Qing's striking beauty.

This woman, who was carried on a man's back earlier, revealing her legs and posturing coquettishly, was obviously no good.

Crown Prince Hong's expression soured when he saw Hong Yulang's reaction.

Bo Qing, in front of so many people, blinked her eyes and with a stride of her long legs, approached the most handsome Hong Yulang.

"This handsome young man, I am Bo Qing, what is your name?" With a flick of her jade-like finger, she grazed Hong Yulang's handsome face, blowing a fragrant breath from her cherry-like lips, causing Hong Yulang to shiver all over, his mind a blank slate.

"I am Hong Yulang, from the Daxia Hong Residence." Hong Yulang, who had never encountered such a demoness before, felt his knees go weak at this moment.

"Cautious, Yulang, this is a witch," warned Crown Prince Hong, noting the red-clothed woman's strange movements and her body full of spiritual treasures, still not enough to mask the Demonic Qi emanating from her.

"Duke An speaks the truth. Nephew Yulang, if I'm not mistaken, this witch is a remnant of the Demon Sect and from the Jueqing Sect – do not be seduced by her. Witch, if you act out again, this Marquis will split you open with one palm!" Duke An was on this expedition to the Taiyi Secret Realm to escort Crown Prince Hong, Hong Yulang, and his daughter An Minxia.

They were the only official force among the Six Great Forces, hence they held themselves in high regard, with an air of disdain for others.

Hong Yulang sobered up a bit upon Duke An's bellowing.

Yet, Bo Qing simply giggled, gracefully stepped back, and returned to Ye Lingyue's side.

"A bunch of sanctimonious fellows, when I touched him just now, the young man below got all hard,"Bo Qing mocked, as she glanced over Hong Yulang, who indeed was visibly affected.

Infuriated and embarrassed, Hong Yulang glowered at Bo Qing, his eyes a mix of indescribable emotions.

Indeed, this Bo Qing was a true witch.

Ye Lingyue, watching from the sidelines, was thoroughly enjoying herself. Initially, she thought Bo Qing would be a hassle to bring along, but now she felt that forming an alliance with her was completely worth the trouble.

Truly, there's always something that can handle something else. Hong Yulang, who usually strutted around Xia Capital so arrogantly, appeared no more than an inexperienced youth in Bo Qing's hands.

"Boss He and Third Brother He, you have quite the nerve. As subjects of Daxia, to secretly possess a map of the Taiyi Secret Realm. My advice to you is to hand over the map's fragments immediately, lest upon my return, I will report to Emperor Xia, accusing your Treasure Cave of colluding with the Demon Sect for sinister plots!" Duke An was also aware that Bo Qing had ties to the Jueqing Sect.

Although he repeatedly scorned Bo Qing as a witch, he dared not offend someone from the Jueqing Sect, as rumors suggested that harming their members brought catastrophic misfortune.

Without the income from the Immortal Restaurant, the An Country Marquis Mansion could not afford to provoke such a formidable enemy.

Thus, Duke An shifted his target towards Boss He, Third Brother He, and the young man who had carried the witch Bo Qing earlier.

"Duke An, don't twist your tongue out of shape with your words, we He brothers merely make a living in Daxia and have never been its subjects," retorted Third Brother He irritably, fed up with people like Duke An who thought they could look down on everyone else just because of their position.

These so-called noble marquises weren't any good at all.

Usually sanctimonious, they would turn their backs in an instant for the treasures of the Taiyi Secret Realm.

Though they were outnumbered and outpowered, the He Brothers certainly wouldn't fear a mere Duke An!
