Chapter 112: A Romantic Encounter or Bad Luck (Part 2)

Seeing this girl appear, Rod’s heart tightened instantly. Lying motionless here, he knew he wouldn’t be exposed for now, but if they were even slightly more observant, he still wouldn’t be able to escape their notice! Two women who could appear here alone must be quite skilled. If they decided to fight…
At the thought of this, Rod’s scalp tingled. He could only pray silently that these two would be careless enough not to notice him, or that they weren’t as strong as that bitch Lilith—just normal enough so that he might have a chance to escape if discovered.
“Help me get my clothes!” Just as Rod was growing increasingly anxious, the woman finally spoke.
Hearing the voice of the bathing woman, the innocent-looking girl who had followed brought her clothes from a distance. “Sis, why are you done bathing so quickly? I was planning to pick some wild fruits. It’s fruit season right now—would be a shame not to collect any!”
“Pick fewer of those. I’ve told you—don’t forget your status,” the alluring woman said, frowning slightly as she slowly took the clothes. Then, completely naked, she stepped out of the pool. Her slender figure, curvaceous silhouette, long legs, thin waist, and fair skin—Rod quickly lowered his head, afraid to look any longer. He was a man, and a virile one at that. Continuing to look might lead to inappropriate reactions or even actions. It was best to avoid looking and listening—to refrain from any improper behavior.
Yet, he couldn’t help but sigh. This woman was truly enchanting. Her figure was beyond doubt. Unconsciously, the image of her fair body flashed again in his mind, making his breathing heavier.
Whether intentionally or not, the alluring woman slowly began dressing, her gaze drifting toward Rod’s location. A faint smile appeared on her lips, as if mocking him.
About five minutes later, she finally got dressed. Along with the young girl, she sat on a rock by the lake, leisurely basking in the midday sun, gently playing with her hair, looking utterly content.
This situation was tough for Rod, who was hiding in the bushes in the distance. Lying motionless on the ground, he prayed silently that these two would leave soon.

“Sis, we should go back now!” After a long while, Rod finally heard the voice he wanted to hear the most. He secretly wished the two women would leave quickly.
“Hehe, no rush. There’s still something left to take care of!” Yet, to Rod’s surprise, the charming woman rejected the innocent girl’s request once again. She spoke slowly, and her words made Rod’s heart skip, giving him a sense of foreboding.
“Damn woman, she just won’t stop!” He cursed inwardly, gripping his Dark Dragon tightly, ready to deal with any possible changes. The charming woman’s words made Rod feel uneasy, as if she had already discovered him.
“Hehe, after hiding for so long, isn’t it time to come out? Do you plan to hide forever?” Sure enough, with the innocent girl’s puzzled expression, the charming girl slowly got up, calmly put on her shoes, and looked at where Rod was hiding, speaking in a indifferent tone that chilled everyone’s heart.
“Sis… this…” Hearing the charming woman’s words, the innocent girl’s expression changed. Seemingly realizing something, she quickly stood up and stood beside the charming girl, asking anxiously.
“What, do you still need me to invite you? Haven’t you had your fill yet?” With a cold snort, the charming woman suddenly had a long, deep purple whip in her hand. Staring at where Rod was, she continued speaking.
Taking a deep breath, Rod smiled bitterly inwardly. He hadn’t expected her to have discovered him already. It seemed she had been playing a game of cat and mouse all along, and he had only been deluding himself by hiding here! Gripping his Dark Dragon, he decided to stand up since he had been discovered—there was no need to hide any longer.
“Ah…” Seeing Rod suddenly stand up, the innocent girl’s expression changed, and she let out a loud scream. Then, staring at Rod, she pointed at him and asked anxiously, “Who… who are you… Why… why are you here? The barrier…”
“Has it appeared? How is it? Have you had your fill?” Compared to the innocent girl’s nervousness, the charming woman seemed to have anticipated this situation. She looked at Rod calmly and asked with a cold smile. Yet no one noticed that for a moment when she saw Rod, her expression froze, and an indescribable look flashed in her eyes before she quickly regained her composure!

“This… actually… I didn’t intend to be here. I just planned to visit the town ahead and happened to pass by here by chance, then saw it by accident…” With a wry smile, Rod looked at the two girls before fixing his gaze on the charming one as he explained helplessly, “I really didn’t see anything. I just saw you bathing in the water, a glimpse of your back. I was about to leave at that moment, but who knew…” He then shifted his gaze to the innocent-looking girl. If not for her appearance, he might have really left already. If that had happened, there wouldn’t be this problem now. Secretly sighing in frustration, Rod knew he really couldn’t explain himself this time!

“Heh, is that so?” Without the anger Rod had expected, the charming girl asked lightly, her seductive words and gestures making him feel even more uneasy. It would have been better if she had gotten angry; it was women like her who were the most terrifying, as their cunning had reached a frightening level. Such enemies were the hardest to deal with.

By now, Rod had also seen clearly what this woman looked like—she was exactly identical to the innocent girl before, with bright eyes, white teeth, fair skin, delicate features, and hair fluttering in the wind. The two must be twins, though their personalities were completely opposite.

“It’s true! I really didn’t see anything! Can I… can I go now?” Looking at the two girls, Rod said helplessly, realizing things wouldn’t end well for him today.

“Hmph. I don’t care what you saw. You must be taught a lesson today. As for your claim of coming by accident, maybe that’s true. You should be glad you didn’t do anything outrageous. You should be glad you left when I first called you! Tell me, where are you from? How did you get here? What are your intentions in coming to our Dark Moon City?” With a cold snort, she once again surprised Rod by not pressing further on that issue instead choosing to change the subject.

Staring at her, Rod was somewhat stunned, not understanding what was going on. What was this woman thinking? Why had things turned out like this? Did she really not care that she had been seen? For a moment, Rod felt utterly incredulous.

“Sis… this…” Clearly, the innocent girl couldn’t believe her sister would do such a thing and brush off this issue so easily. She knew exactly who her sister was—usually, without hesitation, she would have rushed at that man and attacked him. Why was she acting like this now? It was beyond her understanding.

“What, you won’t speak?” The charming woman asked softly, holding the hand of the innocent girl named Eileen. Suddenly, a faint purple glow appeared around her, exuding an aura that suggested she was about to take action.

Mid-stage Saint level. Immediately, Rod assessed the opponent’s strength and aura, and he felt relieved. Mid-stage Saint level—likely, the other party wasn’t much better either. Escaping shouldn’t be a problem. With this conclusion, Rod secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but doubt followed—how dare these two show up here? It seemed that showing up here with such strength was nothing but seeking death.

Without giving Rod more time to think, the woman continued, “It seems you don’t intend to speak, right?” She prepared to act immediately.

“Someone, there are assassins! Hurry!” The innocent girl standing beside the charming woman suddenly shouted loudly, to everyone’s surprise.

As soon as her voice rang out, Rod realized something was wrong. In the next moment, he saw five figures rushing in from five different directions at incredible speed. Their overwhelming aura made it hard for Rod to swallow.

He glared fiercely at the innocent girl—she was even more ruthless! She called for help right from the start. It seemed these two had come here thanks to those five people—five guards with God-level strength. Such a lineup could indeed move freely in this forest!

Taking a deep breath, Rod said, “I’m not a bad person!” With that, he quickly channeled his combat energy and started fleeing outward. His target was the weakest among them, a warrior around the early God level, hoping to escape in that direction.

Everything happened in the blink of an eye. The charming girl seemed too stunned to react. By the time she realized what was happening, Rod had already turned into a streak of black light and dashed into the distance. “Eileen, what are you doing?” Seeing this, the charming girl grew anxious and turned to the innocent girl beside her, asking in a stern voice.
