C1035 It Was Quite Addictive!(1)

Elena's face was alight with a sly smile as she ensnared Yu Yuan with her limbs, clinging to him tightly. Wisps of fine vitality and energy radiated from her bare skin, turning her pale complexion into an enticing shade of pink.

Yu Yuan, trapped in her octopus-like embrace, inhaled her scent and felt the psionic power enveloping him, a curious look flashing in his eyes. The sensations of numbness, fatigue, and a drowsy energy emanated from Elena's presence.

While Yu Yuan's soul remained untouched and his body unscathed, his Lunar Spirit, heaven soul, and dominant soul seemed to have lost their connection to his flesh. His soul no longer sensed his limbs.

Immobolized by Elena's tight grip and the influence of her peculiar bloodline talent, Yu Yuan's mind was foggy, and he struggled to even twitch his fingers.

"Not so cocky now, are you?" Elena taunted as she flipped over, pinning Yu Yuan beneath her. She squinted and smirked, the sharp spikes at her knees piercing into Yu Yuan's legs, sparks flying. "Your soul is as tough as divine iron. Without my bloodline power, I wouldn't have been able to penetrate it. You've always come out on top, but you didn't expect to be subdued by me, did you?"

She exhaled triumphantly and provocatively in Yu Yuan's face.

Her transformed, ample breasts pressed against Yu Yuan, and her shapely legs ensnared his lower half. "How does it feel? Too bad you can't experience it!"

Due to her unique blood magic, Yu Yuan's soul and body were disconnected, rendering him incapable of feeling any physical sensation.

At this moment, Elena could do anything to Yu Yuan's body, and he would be none the wiser.

Yu Yuan could only watch helplessly, unable to feel a thing.

He couldn't even move the muscles in his mouth to speak.

"Thump! Thump! Thump!"

So close to him, she could hear the strong, steady beat of Yu Yuan's heart. She inhaled deeply, enticed by a scent that was mysteriously alluring.

"The aroma of flesh and blood wafting from your chest is so delightfully sweet."

Elena whispered, her tongue instinctively flicking out to taste the skin on Yu Yuan's neck.

Boom!

Suddenly, she was overcome with dizziness, as if a flame had ignited within her, her gaze becoming bewildered and uncontrollable.

Yu Yuan stood frozen in shock.

Spiritual energy, vitality, and Soul Power—these were the three forces he was accustomed to wielding. Now, he found himself limited to using only Soul Power.

Having lost his connection to his physical body, he couldn't harness the spiritual energy from the Golden Sanctum's little world, nor could he tap into the vital energy from the little world of Blood and Flesh. Watching Elena, he could tell something was amiss as she began to lick his neck...

He was certain there was a problem.

Rip!

Before he could react, Elena, driven by instinct, began to tear at his clothes.

Her face was a portrait of fanaticism, flushed with intoxication and longing as she searched his body for something.

He watched as Elena's delicate hands caressed the area of his chest where the Profound Gate acupoint was located, as if she was drawn to a treasure within that had ensnared her completely.

It was the Altar of Rebirth!

Yu Yuan's mind stirred, and he quickly grasped the heart of the issue. He surmised that the crimson Altar of Rebirth, nestled within his own little world of vitality, wielded an irresistible allure over the bold Shura girl, shattering her willpower and sense of reason in an instant.

"So sweet, so delectable, right here, this is it..."

Elena murmured as though intoxicated, tearing off all his clothes and discarding her own armor that covered her vital areas.

Then, completely bare, she continued her fervent quest upon Yu Yuan's body.

Until...

Boom!

A surge of vitality flooded his mind, and Yu Yuan jolted slightly, snapping back to awareness.

The first sensation he registered came from his lower body, which felt as though it was enveloped in a wonderfully soft embrace.

The influence of the Shura girl's blood magic, which had affected him, dissipated with the powerful beats of his heart and the ecstasy of his realization.

Elena, still atop him, was in a state of delirious entreaty, utterly oblivious to her own identity.

Yu Yuan squinted his eyes, his expression dazed as he savored the moment. Eventually, unable to resist any longer, he let out a low growl and flipped Elena beneath him.

In a moonlit enclave, the Moonlit Wanderers thrived.

Deep within a remote castle, the refined Calves of the Moonlit Wanderers, the lean and agile Rosny of the Shadowkin, and the towering, robust General Fernand of the Shura discussed matters in the drawing room.

Beyond the three notorious Kings of Bandits from the Ashen Hollow, the former Silvermoon Queen stood stoically beside a stone pillar.

"My son Lambing was slain by a human named Yu Yuan from the Everlands! The trident I bequeathed has also been gravely damaged; I fear it may never be wielded again."

Despite his fury, Calves retained his composure, adjusting his silver-framed glasses as he addressed Rosny and Fernand, "Many magic items from the Ashen Hollow have been pilfered. Furthermore, Elena has been abducted!"

Fernand, his aura pulsating with vitality, cracked a sly grin, "Calves, my daughter is no weakling! Having battled alongside me from a young age, Elena has faced all manner of adversity. I doubt she's at a disadvantage, so spare me the alarm."

"I assure you, I'm not trying to alarm you. But you're aware of Elena's fiery spirit. She won't sit idly by; she's bound to strike from the shadows, which could lead to her downfall." Calves gestured toward the Silvermoon Queen, "This Yu Yuan has quite the reputation in the Everlands. Even the Great Demon God Grec is on his trail!"

"He's the one Grec is after?" Rosny of the Shadowkin raised an eyebrow, his interest piqued. Stroking his chin, he mused, "Though our alliances have a history of conflict, if Yu Yuan is a human and a target of Grec's, perhaps we could join forces to capture him and trade for some premium goods."

"Fernand, you know I have many offspring. But you, you have only your cherished daughter, Elena. You wouldn't want to see her come to harm, right?" Calves provoked, "In a mere ten days, they'll be crossing through this Domain. With both of you present, the Ashen Hollow is sure to anchor here."

"With our combined strength, we have nothing to fear!"

Calves, grieving his son, gestured emphatically, "Any spoils from this encounter will be yours to keep. I seek only vengeance. I intend to make that young upstart suffer!"

"Alright, count me in," Rosny nodded.

"I'll stay as well," Fernand added.

Beside the stone pillar, the Silvermoon Queen bore witness to the three Kings of Bandits hatching their plans.

Lee Yupan's lips curled into a faint, cold smile. She had only informed Calves that Yu Yuan was a human of the late period who had recently risen to prominence, possessing extraordinary talent and a close relationship with the Shadow's Keep.

She kept to herself the details of Yu Yuan's falling out with the Shadow's Keep, his gradual alignment with the Boulderdawn, and his acceptance by the Moonfall Sanctuary's arrays.

To her, a mere King of Bandits wasn't worth her full trust or significant attention.

"You, don't leave for now. Otherwise, the deal is off!" Calves turned and gave Lee Yupan a cold stare. "Once the Ashen Hollow descends and we resolve that issue, we'll resume our transaction."

With an air of detachment, Lee Yupan responded, "Agreed."
