C1036 She Was Addicted to It!(2)

"What's that noise?" Hart from the Silver Scale Clan craned his neck, scanning the area until his eyes settled on the towering structure. He pointed and said, "Isn't that where Yu Yuan and the Asura warrior clashed?"

Below the platform, two witches from the Internal Demon Clan giggled behind pursed lips. Benin sat upright, ignoring the commotion.

Pattinson of the Shadow Clan listened to the hurried breaths and Elena's resonant moans, massaging his temples as he leaned against a massive stone pillar, choosing to remain quiet. The sounds seemed off, but Elena had never been known to be so daring.

Shaking his head, Pattinson dismissed his concerns as overthinking.

Only Peach Madam Hu Caiyun, in the midst of refining her secret abilities, paused, startled by the odd noises. A wisp of her consciousness escaped, and her lips curled into a suggestive smile. "Young people really don't sweat the small stuff. Their behavior is... quite audacious. One moment they're at each other's throats, the next they're entwined in a passionate embrace," she mused with a chuckle.

Then another thought struck her. Given the current situation between Yu Yuan and Elena, she hoped to collaborate with Yu Yuan on other matters in the future. "You've got some luck on your side!" she exclaimed.

Hu Caiyun had just freed the Eighth Level Asura warrior, who was on the brink of death due to her poison. This warrior, with his high-grade bloodline, was not easily subdued, and she had intended to refine him later. Knowing what was transpiring between Yu Yuan and Elena, she decided to show mercy and offered the Asura warrior a chance at survival.

The barely conscious warrior lay on the ground, his bloodline stirring to life.

"You?" Pattinson's attention was drawn by her unexpected act of clemency. He frowned, looking at his companion who was surprisingly still alive. "He's still breathing?"

"If Yu Yuan hadn't bedded his mistress, he'd be dead by now," Peach Madam huffed, smoothing her disheveled hair and musing to herself. 'Could that young man really be the Medicine God Hong Qi from a past life? Three hundred years ago, Hong Qi was devoted to his alchemy, seeking rebirth, seemingly indifferent to women.'

Had Yu Yuan not shared many ancient secrets from the Nirvana Realm, she would have doubted his words entirely.

"Sleeping, really sleeping?"

Pattinson was startled.

As a man who held Fernand in high regard, he feared causing trouble and refrained from using his soul sense or activating the device below to spy on the scene at the tower's base.

Unable to make an accurate judgment based solely on sound, he was left with suspicion.

Peach Madam gave him a look that said, 'What do you think?'

"How on earth am I going to explain this to Lord Fernand?" Pattinson lamented, tugging at his hair in distress.

Hart from the Silver Scale Clan stared blankly at the tower, his face slowly reddening as he listened to the strange noises from within.

In contrast, Benin appeared oblivious, sitting motionless like a statue.

After what seemed like an eternity, a young Asura Clan girl emerged from the tower, her face stern and her armor meticulously arranged, even more conservative than usual.

Upon seeing Peach Madam's barely concealed smirk, Pattinson's woeful expression, and Hart's stunned look, she felt a twinge of panic and glared at them, demanding, "What are you staring at? Is there something worth seeing?"

Her overly tidy appearance seemed to betray her attempt to conceal something, as if protesting too much.

"After the enjoyment, you do look a bit more radiant than before," Hu Caiyun commented with a smile.

"Pah, you shameless woman, spouting such nonsense!" Elena retorted, her face cold.

She had noticed the general at Peach Madam's feet and was about to speak when her expression abruptly shifted. She hurried into the square stone building belonging to her father and slammed the stone door shut.

In the dimly lit hall, Elena felt a powerful surge of life force coursing through her.

"This..."

Her face registered shock as she sensed the essence of life and a strange power within this unfamiliar life force, one that could enhance her own bloodline.

'Impossible! That man is from the Boundless Land, isn't he?'

Her father, Fernand, had always said that it was nearly impossible for a male human from the Boundless Land to impregnate a formidable woman of the Asura Clan.

She could sense a strong vitality emanating from the power within her body.

Convinced that if she did not refine this energy, she would undoubtedly become pregnant with Yu Yuan's child, Elena was on the verge of panic.

The thought of being so young and carrying the child of a stranger from another clan was overwhelming.

'No way! I can't let this happen! How would I ever explain this to the old man and my clansmen? How could I face the future as an Asura of the Dark Domain?'

'This power, this rich life force... It seems incredibly beneficial to my Asura bloodline!'

With a clear plan in mind, Elena sat down and began using the secret bloodline technique of the Asura Clan to refine the pure life force that Yu Yuan had infused into her.

Half a day passed.

Elena's form trembled slightly as she opened her eyes, which sparkled with realization. She clenched her fists and effortlessly crushed the stone tiles beneath her. "It really can help my bloodline progress! Yu Yuan is no ordinary human! My bloodline might even reach the Eighth Level much sooner!"

Feeling a surge of excitement, she rose to her feet, only to be caught in a whirlwind of emotions.

After a brief struggle, she bit her lip and resolved, "Since it's already happened once, a few more times won't make a difference!"

With that, she forcefully burst through the stone door with a punch and stepped out with feigned composure. Stomping her foot, she shot out like a rocket, "Yu Yuan, you scoundrel! You're going to pay!"

Beneath the central platform surrounded by buildings, Pattinson, Hu Caiyun, Hart, and the others exchanged bewildered glances.

"This girl seems to have quite the appetite," Hu Caiyun remarked, eyeing Pattinson, who looked as though he had been struck. "She's back so soon. Has she always been this way?"

Pattinson, coughing uncontrollably, managed to shake his head. "Never, never before!"

Hart scratched his head, pondering aloud, "Is this the bandit's attitude toward such matters?" His beliefs were shaken, and he cautiously stole a glance at Benin.

Benin's eyes, clear and sharp, conveyed a silent warning. "Be quiet! And stop your mind from wandering into absurd thoughts!"

"Oh, oh, oh," Hart nodded repeatedly, indicating his understanding.
