Chapter 582: Witch Wanwan
“Wanwan!”
Kai Xin took a deep breath, thinking to himself that the “Great Demon Art” was truly formidable when used by a naturally charming woman like Wanwan. Despite having practiced the “Nine Yang Divine Skill,” which had greatly enhanced his sensitivity, he still couldn’t sense her arrival in advance. Moreover, so far, Wanwan gave him the impression not of danger, but rather something poetic and picturesque, even stirring an uncontrollable admiration in him.
Alarmed, Kai Xin bowed and said, “My apologies. So you are Miss Wanwan from the Yin Gui Sect…”
“The man in blue from Gusu truly lives up to his reputation. I’ve heard from those in the jianghu that Young Master Kai Xin is the most outstanding disciple of the righteous path among the younger generation, admired by many noblewomen. I’ve long had a fondness for you.”
“I too greatly admire Miss Wanwan. I’ve heard that romantic men are most attracted to a woman’s natural freedom and uniqueness. Seeing you today, I confirm it’s true. Since we get along so well, how about we find an inn, drink some wine, chat, and discuss life?” With that, Kai Xin laughed heartily, stepped forward, and dashed away.
Whoosh!
“You little rascal.”
Wanwan’s lips curled into a sly smile. With her boneless arms outstretched, she descended from the sky like a fairy descending from the Moon Palace, catching up to Kai Xin at a speed that seemed slow yet was actually fast.
“You clearly said we would drink together and enjoy each other’s company. Why are you leaving in such a hurry, Young Master Kai Xin? Are you planning to deceive me?” Her soft words almost shattered Kai Xin’s defenses. Fortunately, he was well aware of Wanwan’s tactics. In this life, she had given her heart to Xu Ziling and was ruthless toward any other man. If he showed even the slightest hesitation, she might devour him completely.
His heart fluttered, but he refused to show weakness. “Miss Wanwan, that’s not fair. You claim to admire me, yet you act so heartlessly. Does it mean that whenever you like a man, you must use the ruthless ‘Great Demon Art’ to get rid of him?”
As he spoke, his speeding body flashed slightly, moving several meters sideways.
Bang!
A palm print several inches deep appeared on the ground where he had been.
“Happy Lord is truly Wanwan’s soulmate, able to see through her troubles at a glance.” With an innocent and charming expression, Wanwan replied softly, “The ‘Great Demon Art’ I practice indeed cannot be influenced by emotions; any man who captures my heart must die. Happy Lord, you’re making it harder and harder for me to bring myself to act.” Her pitiful tone and involuntary confession carried an irresistible urge, like a moth drawn to flame.
But Happy had heard many rumors about Wanwan. In past lives, countless formidable experts had dreamed of conquering this extraordinary woman, only to be mercilessly killed by her. Happy considered himself no match for Xu Ziling—lacking such nobility and selflessness—and avoided her again, creating distance from the Extreme Yin Lake.
“…”
At first, Wanwan remained relaxed, but gradually became more serious. Happy’s fighting style was incredibly mysterious, and his ability to dodge attacks with bizarre maneuvers without running out of internal energy surprised her greatly.
“Miss Wanwan, I’m actually not that great. Why do you persist in pursuing me like this?” Happy ran ahead, occasionally teasing her.
“Hmph.”
Wanwan seemed to realize that Happy’s strength was different from those self-serving people in the martial world. She grew more serious, though still speaking in a joking tone, “If it were for my own sake, I’d surely turn a blind eye and find a place to slowly forget Happy Lord. But unfortunately, since you intruded into the Extreme Yin Lake without reason to spy on the secrets of my Yin Gui Sect, if my master finds out I let you go, I’ll be scolded when I return.”
With that, she sped up and caught up to Happy, blocking his path.
“What secrets does the ‘Extreme Yin Lake’ have?”
Happy was stunned.
Wanwan stretched her arms, covering her mouth with a light laugh. Every move of hers resembled that of a fairy under the cold moon, captivating and tempting, making it hard to stay true to one’s heart. “At a time like this, you’re still concerned about the ‘Extreme Yin Lake’? Why don’t you worry about yourself instead?”
“You’re so beautiful and charming—surely you have a kind heart and won’t kill me. But now that you mentioned the secrets of the Yin Gui Sect, I’ve suddenly become very curious.”
“Smooth talker!”
With a light snort, Wanwan suddenly unfurled her black veil, revealing intricate patterns that gave an impression of undressing. Of course, it wasn’t real undressing—just a black veil wrapped around her body. But under the influence of the ‘Great Demon Art,’ combined with her unconventional attire, it indeed created the illusion of her clothes falling away.
Even if she was happy, it was the first time she had encountered such a situation! She quickly regained her composure and struck swiftly with both hands. The Combined Finger Technique! Silent and unseen. Compared to Yang Xuyan, Wanwan’s strength was clearly superior, yet her silent use of the Combined Finger Technique didn’t escape her notice. With a twist of her waist, she said, “Young master, you’re really heartless to Wanwan!” Avoiding the technique, the black veil slithered toward her like a serpent. Snap! Snap! Two holes were punched through the trees behind Wanwan. Meanwhile, Kai Xin remained calm, pointing at the black veil—immediately softening it as it drooped, allowing Wanwan to retrieve it. “I wouldn’t do that.” Kai Xin replied with a laugh, “I just suddenly thought that since Wanwan is trapped by the Yin Gui Sect and can’t even control her own feelings, I can’t bear it. How about I take you with me? After eliminating the evil sects this time, we can find a peaceful place to live in seclusion… Ah… You’re so eager! I didn’t even say to have children with me, yet you get excited already.” “What a wonderful man from Gusu in blue robes! I really like you more and more.” Hearing Wanwan’s increasingly sweet tone, Kai Xin felt uneasy. But with skills like the True Dragon Ten Styles, the Eighteen Palms of Subduing the Dragon, the Combined Finger Technique, and the Nine Yang Divine Art, Kai Xin wasn’t afraid of Wanwan alone. Even Yang Xuyan had been defeated by him; Wanwan was only slightly better than Yang Xuyan. If it weren’t for his concern for the latter’s master, he would have acted back at the Extreme Yin Lake long ago, instead of delaying until they left it. “Miss Wanwan, aren’t you afraid of falling in love with the wrong man?” Kai Xin’s voice echoed clearly in the night sky, but it was quickly shattered by another clear and charming voice: “If you betray me, Wanwan will kill you.” Wanwan always stuck to her theme. Despite his confidence, Kai Xin couldn’t help but smile bitterly at her increasingly gentle words and firm intent to kill. What on earth was this damned mission? Wanwan had appeared, and it involved the secrets of the Yin Gui Sect. Could it be a series of interconnected missions? That would be disastrous. As he fought with Wanwan, Kai Xin thought of ways to escape and find medicine.
