Chapter 299: Chapter 296: Trap"Where are we going?" Surrounded by several Demon women with fervent gazes, Ye Xuan was somewhat uncomfortable. After frowning, he couldn’t help but ask. "You’ll know when you get there. We won’t do anything to you," A seductive demon woman giggled as they moved forward, and a large red hall also came into view. "This is Skyfire Hall, the place on Huoyou Peak with the most abundant Spiritual Energy, and it will be where you live from now on. Go on in," When they reached the front of the hall, the demon women stopped and smiled at Ye Xuan. "Aren’t you coming in?" Ye Xuan held some caution in his heart and voiced his doubts. "Only those with extreme talent qualify to reside in Skyfire Hall. Previously, only Miss Yu Yi lived here, but now, it seems we might have to add you as well. We don’t qualify to enter." "That’s right, Brother Ye Xuan, it’s your first time venturing into the Demon Tower, and you reached the ninth level; your talents are truly extraordinary. On Huoyou Peak, aside from Miss Yu Yi, there’s no one else who can compare to you. Cultivating inside Skyfire Hall will certainly yield twice the result with half the effort." The demon women seemed very enthusiastic, but Ye Xuan felt a hint of strangeness; their enthusiasm was clearly excessive, and there definitely had to be some trickery involved. However, Ye Xuan couldn’t just stand there doing nothing, and since they said Skyfire Hall had the richest Spiritual Energy in Huoyou Peak and that cultivation there could indeed yield twice the results with half the effort, he thought he might eventually have to enter anyway. With a slight frown, Ye Xuan stepped into the hall in front of him. As Ye Xuan entered the hall, the demon women then revealed sly smiles of success one after another. "What do you think will happen to this kid in the end?" "He might end up disabled. It’s time for Miss Yu Yi to practice the Spirit Light Skill, and his entry at this moment will surely witness a scene he will never forget." "Heh, if that’s really the case, even becoming disabled might not sufficeto quench their resentment; he might even get castrated, unable to even be a man anymore." "Haha, wouldn’t that turn him into an eunuch..." The demon women laughed to their hearts’ content, staying outside the hall, waiting to see Ye Xuan’s drama unfold. At this moment, Ye Xuan had already walked into Skyfire Hall, feeling the Spiritual Energy surging from all around, indeed denser than outside by more than double. This place truly was a treasured land for cultivation. The hall was extremely spacious. Compared to it, Ye Xuan felt quite deserted as he walked from the front hall to the inner sanctum, not seeing a single person, confirming what the demon women had said: only one person lived in this Skyfire Hall. Ye Xuan walked around the great hall, letting out a sigh of relief, easing his tense mood considerably. He had been worried that there might be some mechanisms or traps in the hall, but it seemed he had worried too much. However, suddenly, Ye Xuan noticed a faint colorful glow in the rear courtyard, and faintly, there seemed to be a very subtle sound coming through. Intrigued, Ye Xuan frowned and was drawn to walk over. Just as he entered the backyard, Ye Xuan smelled a rich fragrance. In his view, dense Spiritual Energy flowed like rivers in mid-air, and the entire backyard seemed to be arranged into some kind of array, with dense Spiritual Power Crystal Stones as its base, significant fluctuations pulsing through the array. But at the center of the array, Ye Xuan saw a shadowy figure. The next moment, as the colorful glow emitting the seven colors of light gradually dispersed, a perfect body that could make anyone’s blood boil appeared right before Ye Xuan’s eyes. The round jade legs, skin smooth as cream, were almost completely exposed before Ye Xuan. Such a devilish figure, fully exposed before Ye Xuan, would probably make any man’s nose bleed and lust burn fiercely. "Have you seen enough?" Just as Ye Xuan had entered the backyard, catching only a fleeting glimpse, the woman with a perfect figure had already opened her eyes, her gaze cold as ice, locking onto Ye Xuan. "This is bad." The moment Ye Xuan saw the delicate body, he was distracted for a moment, but hearing her icy words, his pupils shrank, and he cursed inwardly. He knew those demon women definitely had ill intentions, but he hadn’t expected them to use such a despicable method—it was too harsh. After a swift change of thoughts in his mind, Ye Xuan wore a forced smile and said, "I merely entered unintentionally and saw nothing. Please continue..." With an awkward smile hanging on his face, Ye Xuan slowly stepped back, hastily exiting the courtyard. "Thinking of leaving? Since you’ve seen something you shouldn’t have, you might as well leave your eyeballs behind." The woman’s face seemed coated in frost, and immediately she took out a colorful dress from her Qiankun Ring and dressed, wrapping her curvaceous body. With a "swoosh," she turned into a colorful shadow, and with unbelievable speed, she lunged at Ye Xuan. In what seemed like a blink of an eye, she was in front of Ye Xuan, her fair claw reaching out. As it tore through the air, it rapidly extended and transformed into a bird’s claw, aiming for Ye Xuan’s eyes—it looked like she really intended to gouge out Ye Xuan’s eyes. His expression changed, and Ye Xuan quickly leaned back before striking with his palm, dispersing the fierce claw strength that approached him. Ye Xuan retreated a dozen steps and gave a light cough, "If there’s something to say, why resort to physical conflict?" It seemed that this colorful-dressed woman must be Miss Yu Yi. Swoosh! However, Miss Yu Yi had no intention of responding to Ye Xuan. When her claws failed to gouge out Ye Xuan’s eyes, her assault grew even fiercer, with both claws aiming directly at Ye Xuan’s eyes. Facing such a fierce attack, Ye Xuan initially kept dodging. After all, he was the one at fault for seeing what he shouldn’t have, but after retreating for five or six moves, Ye Xuan found no way to evade and was clawed at the chest, leaving a bloody mark. After that claw wounded him, Miss Yu Yi struck another claw towards Ye Xuan’s face. Seeing this, Ye Xuan’s expression darkened, and he countered with a direct palm strike. The clash of palm and claw caused both figures to separate and fly backwards. "I didn’t expect this lecher to have some skills." A hint of surprise flashed through Miss Yu Yi’s clear eyes; the lecher in front of her was quite strong, capable of parrying so many of her moves. "I’m a lecher? It was just a glance. You really think I haven’t seen anything before?" Ye Xuan was fired up, "You’re the one exposing your body in broad daylight in the yard, who’s to blame? It’s not me, it’s you." "Go to hell!" Hearing Ye Xuan’s words, the coldness in Miss Yu Yi’s eyes intensified, the temperature around seemed to drop in an instant. Her body emitted colorful lights, and a magnificent two-headed giant bird phantom immediately appeared above her head. "She’s actually invoking her Bloodline Power, seems she’s getting serious." Feeling the pressure emanating from the two-headed bird, Ye Xuan’s expression slightly changed, and he hurriedly mobilized the True Qi within his body which surged out continuously. "Pluck out your own eyes now, and you’ll suffer less, or you won’t have the chance to beg for mercy later." Miss Yu Yi looked at Ye Xuan ice-cold, the pressure from her body spreading, and the phantom of the two-headed giant bird became more solid, its ominous presence growing stronger. "Trying to gouge out my eyes? Let’s see if you have the ability." Ye Xuan drew the Spiritual Edge Sword. This was Sky Demon Mountain, where even internal vendettas were not prohibited; even if he lost his eyes, likely no one would intervene. Here, one could only rely on one’s own strength. "That’s something you asked for!" Miss Yu Yi’s gaze suddenly turned icy. Her robe billowed, and Demon Energy shot out in all directions. Under the changes formed by her Hand Seals, the two-headed giant bird phantom in the air behind her also rushed toward Ye Xuan with ferocious might. The two-headed giant bird phantom emitted a long cry, which seemed to contain a soul-shocking impact, capable of instilling fear and obliterating the will to fight in those with weak soul power. "Watch as my sword breaks your Demon Spirit!" A glint flashed in Ye Xuan’s eyes, and he thrust the sword diagonally, this stroke embodying the pinnacle of Sword Heart Clarity, indestructible and irresistible. Swish! The peerless sword light struck the two-headed bird phantom’s heart, blasting a hole through it, and the drastically weakened phantom was then dispersed by Ye Xuan’s subsequent palm strike, collapsing completely before him. "What?" Shock colored Miss Yu Yi’s beautiful face; the lecher’s mastery in swordsmanship was astonishingly profound. "Miss Yu Yi, it was not my intention to offend you. Let’s just leave what happened just now in the past..." Ye Xuan wasn’t keen on fighting to the death with the lady from the Demon Clan in front of him. It was enough; after all, he had also been tricked by a few other demon ladies outside—it wasn’t really his fault. "Don’t get cocky, it’s not over that simply." Miss Yu Yi had no intention of letting Ye Xuan off easily. Her expression remained icy as she waved her arms gently in mid-air. In an instant, her whole aura transformed, feathers grew above her cheeks, and a pair of colorful wings extended from her back. "Turning into a demon?" Seeing her body transform, Ye Xuan’s expression gradually turned solemn. The Demon Clan’s transformation was stronger than turning into one’s true form because, despite increased strength, physical aspects like agility could decrease; however, transformation solved this problem, allowing both strength and agility to flourish. If Ye Xuan’s Bloodline Power were stimulated, he could transform just like her, but at the moment, not even knowing his own bloodline, he naturally couldn’t do the same as Miss Yu Yi.
