Chapter 381: The Ninth Floor Challenge

Uh...

He had only been thinking of Ye Shiyuan’s safety. Yet instead of appreciating it, Ye Shiyuan seemed amused.

The higher the floor, the stronger the person occupying it would naturally be.

There was no doubt about that.

"Master, what do you think of the one with the lantern hanging outside?"

Bai He actually did like that unique lantern very much.

It was shaped like a rabbit.

Among all the floors here, it was the most distinctive one.

It was on the ninth floor.

Before Bai He could say anything else, Ye Shiyuan had already taken Bai He’s hand and led him inside.

The first floor seemed to have many challengers.

There were fewer challengers on the second floor.

The higher they went, the fewer challengers there were.

Above the fifth floor, challenge tokens became extremely scarce.

By the time they reached the ninth floor, there was not a single challenge token left.

The floors above were probably the same.

"Master, this is the place. Wait for me outside for a while."

"Alright."

Bai He obediently nodded and remained outside to wait.

He felt as though he had forgotten something.

However, he could not remember what it was for the moment. Then, a flash of realization suddenly crossed his mind.

Bai He’s eyes instantly widened.

Where had Zhang Hao gone?

After he and Ye Shiyuan left, Zhang Hao had never caught up with them. Then again, Zhang Hao was not an immortal cultivator.

There was no way he could have kept up with them.

This... Bai He thought about it for a moment.

In the end, he decided to go inside first and tell Ye Shiyuan about it.

Standing at the entrance, he raised his hand and knocked gently on the door.

There was no response.

Then, imitating what Ye Shiyuan had done earlier, he carefully pushed the door open.

The moment he stepped inside, the scene before him left him completely stunned.

"Master..."

The air was filled with an atmosphere that easily stirred the imagination.

The woman was dressed in clothing that was far too revealing.

Her figure was unbelievably perfect.

Bai He could not help but feel somewhat inferior in comparison.

At that moment, the woman walked toward him.

"Little boy, are you here to challenge me as well?"

"No, I came to find Shiyuan. The man who came in just now. Where is he now?"

"Oh? Then what is your relationship with that man, little boy?"

Well, Bai He hesitated for a moment before answering.

"He is my disciple."

"Oh!"

The woman then stood up.

She suddenly seemed even taller than before.

Bai He felt as though he were a child looking up at an adult.

Mm...

No normal woman would be nearly one hundred ninety centimeters tall.

She was both tall and slender, giving off an overwhelming sense of pressure.

And how could her skin possibly be so fair?

It was so soft and delicate that it seemed as though water could be squeezed from it.

She slowly walked over until she stood directly in front of Bai He and then their eyes met.

For a brief instant, Bai He’s expression became dazed.

He vaguely saw the woman reveal a faint smile.

Bai He’s body slowly floated into the air before gently landing on a nearby chair.

A trace of coldness flashed through the woman’s eyes.

There were probably not many people in this place who were as pure and innocent as Bai He.

However, that was not a bad thing.

Otherwise, how could she obtain what she wanted so easily?

Bai He’s eyes slowly opened.

However, they were completely devoid of emotion.

His gaze had become dull and vacant.

The woman walked over to Bai He and stopped in front of him.

"What wonderfully pure spiritual power. The moment I saw it, I wanted to make it mine."

"Mo Zhu, what happened to me?"

"Host, her charm ability is far too powerful. It is not something you can deal with. Your self protection mechanism has automatically activated."

Bai He’s consciousness returned to the system space.

Even so, he could still sense what was happening outside.

"But she is trying to absorb my spiritual power. I worked so hard to cultivate to this level!"

Was he really supposed to hand it over just like that?

Of course Bai He was unwilling.

"Host, do you want to return now? But this person is very powerful. You are not her opponent."

"Hurry up." Bai He spoke impatiently.

"Understood, Host!"

Mo Zhu had no choice but to obey Bai He’s command.

"Terminating self protection protocol."

Bai He instantly opened his eyes.

At the very same moment, the woman revealed a shocked expression.

A moment ago, Bai He had unquestionably fallen under her charm.

There could not possibly have been any mistake. Yet now, he had actually awakened.

In such a short amount of time, he had already regained full consciousness.

"Sky Cutting!"

Bai He shouted angrily.

The Sky Cutting Sword immediately appeared in his hand.

He swiftly jumped down from the chair.

His gaze instantly became sharp and resolute.

"Where is Shiyuan?"

"You should be worrying about yourself right now."

She actually still had the mood to care about someone else.

A strange bottle appeared in the woman’s hand and then the bottle fell onto the ground, releasing a cloud of white powder.

The white powder merged into the air and then disappeared without a trace.

The air gradually began to carry a strange scent.

It was most likely related to that white powder.

"You want my cultivation? You think you are worthy?"

Bai He moved his lips slightly.

He immediately tapped several acupoints around his body, preventing himself from losing his mind because of the strange powder.

He narrowed his eyes.

The Sky Cutting Sword Spirit had already appeared behind Bai He.

The woman in front of him also revealed a slightly shocked expression.

Actually, from Ye Shiyuan who had entered earlier to Bai He now, she could already confirm that these two people were absolutely not ordinary.
