Chapter 714: A Siren

Purple bamboo grew all over Zixia Sacred Mountain. The leaves swayed and rustled in the breeze, with some drifting down like purple butterflies.

Mu Lingxi stood in the purple bamboo forest, her hair blowing in the wind. She stared at Zhang Ruochen with a lovely smile.

Zhang Ruochen gazed at her for a good while, and then he smiled and shook his head. “No,” he said.

Mu Lingxi rolled her eyes. Obviously, she did not believe Zhang Ruochen’s answer. She groaned petulantly. “Elderbrother Lin Yue, though I’ve only been here for three days, I’ve heard a lot.

“They say that Senior Sister Apprentice Qi is intimate with you, and you’re called “the perfect couple” in the Yin and Yang Sect. You know, numerous disciples envy you secretly.”

Mu Lingxi cupped her chin and looked at the clouds in the distance. Sarcastically, she said, “Senior Sister Apprentice Qi is a fairy-like beauty, while elderbrother Lin Yue a fine-looking man. Both of you have outstanding talent in the Tao of the sword. Even I, your little junior sister apprentice, also think you’re a perfect match. Only two words, PEFECT MATCH.”

Mu Lingxi seemed very irritated, although she was not normally petty.

But when he looked at her pout, Zhang Ruochen could not tell if she was really angry.

Zhang Ruochen walked up on the step stones and said, “Senior sister apprentice Duanmu, is there another meaning in your words?”

“Yes.”

Mu Lingxi latched on to Zhang Ruochen’s arm, raised her pointed chin, and glared at him. She said, “You said you came to the Yin and Yang Sect to investigate. So, why did you grow close to Qi Feiyu, that seductress?”

Zhang Ruochen smiled slightly and said, “This is not a suitable place to talk. Let’s go to my small practice yard.”

Zhang Ruochen brought Mu Lingxi to his practice yard, and then he released Spiritual Power to protect the whole yard against eavesdroppers.

“Senior sister apprentice Duanmu, how dare you sneak into the Yin and Yang Sect? It’s too dangerous! The Lord of Zixia Sacred Mountain is a Half-Saint. If he finds you, the consequences will be inconceivable,” Zhang Ruochen said seriously.

Mu Lingxi had returned to her true body, but Zhang Ruochen was still accustomed to calling her, “senior sister apprentice Duanmu.”

Mu Lingxi’s face was girlish, but her smile was coquettish.

She came up step by step and backed Zhang Ruochen into the corner. She almost rested her soft, tender body on Zhang Ruochen and said, “The Half-Saints in the Yin and Yang Sect don’t pay much attention to outer disciples.

“Besides, the High Priest helped me conceal my cultivation and aura before I came here. If no one recognizes me, my true identity as a Saintess of the Moon Worship Sect will remain unknown.”

Although Mu Lingxi had not seen Zhang Ruochen for only a few months, she had counted the days bitterly.

She managed to meet with Zhang Ruochen again. The emotions inside her erupted like a volcano. She wanted to do nothing but hug Zhang Ruochen tightly, to melt into him.

Zhang Ruochen could feel clearly the warmth and the softness of her chest pressing against him, and he could smell her faint fragrance. He said, “Senior sister apprentice, you’re acting… quite unseemly.”

“Unseemly? Qi Feiyu can lure you. Why can’t I?”

Mu Lingxi raised her charming face, looked at Zhang Ruochen, and lifted her slim arm to tear off the hair band on her head. Her black hair fell to her waist and fluttered around her face.

And then, her beautiful hand drew the collar of her robe down, exposing her white camisole, sexy ribs, and smooth jade shoulders.

Undeniably, Mu Lingxi was extremely beautiful. She had black eyebrows, bright eyes, glittering red lips, and silky white skin.

Her beauty was breath-taking.

Zhang Ruochen could feel the blood pulsing through his veins in the presence of such seductive charms, especially below the waist. It felt like there was a fire burning, driving him to lose his head.

However, he noticed that Mu Lingxi’s tender body trembled slightly. Obviously, she was nervous, too.

At that moment, Mu Lingxi compressed her red lips as if she had made a big decision. She stretched her hands down to loosen Zhang Ruochen’s waist band.

“Senior sister apprentice, you…”

With a grave look in his eyes, Zhang Ruochen reached out a hand to clutch her wrist. He said slowly, “Don’t take this joke too far!”

Mu Lingxi found her wrist clenched tightly by Zhang Ruochen’s pincher-like hand. He was clearly determined.

It suddenly occured to Mu Lingxi that she had not yet entered Zhang Ruochen’s heart.

So what secret was hidden in his heart that could cut him off from the outside world? Any girl who got close to him was like an insect flying towards the fire.

“What? Who wants to take a joke too far with you?”

Mu Lingxi groaned playfully, withdrew her hands quickly, and pulled her white robe up again. She turned around elegantly and got herself dressed decently again. “I just wanted to test if you’d be lured. Not bad. You passed the test.”

She turned back as if she had forgotten what had just happened. She stared at Zhang Ruochen with a bright smile and said, “Before coming to the Yin and Yang Sect, I sussed Qi Feiyu out. Do you want to know her real story?”

Zhang Ruochen asked, “Is she from the Moon Worship Demonic Sect?”

Mu Lingxi rolled her starry eyes, resentful of the words “Moon Worship Demonic Sect.” But she did not take Zhang Ruochen personally. She continued, “Qi Feiyu is not only from the Moon Worship Sect, but she also enjoys high status in the Sect.”

“Every three years, the Demonic Sect will pick a girl with the best physical quality in all of Kunlun’s Field, and canonize her as ‘Saintess.’ The Sect will provide the resources necessary to train her to be the strongest among her peers.

“Qi Feiyu is one of them. She must be nine years older than me.”

The Moon Worship Demonic Sect set a high standard for each canonized Saintess. If one of them failed to reach the required cultivation at the certain age, she would be deprived of her identity as a Saintess.

Besides, some Saintesses had been assassinated or died during the experience before they fully developed.

Therefore, even though the Moon Worship Sect selected a Saintess every three years, there were only twelve Saintess in the Sect. Some of them even concealed their true identity and lurked in the top forces of Kunlun’s Field.

Publicly, the demonic sect had only four Saintesses.

Zhang Ruochen was quite surprised. He had not expected Qi Feiyu to rank so high in the demonic sect.

“Do the Qis belong to the Moon Worship Demonic Sect?” Zhang Ruochen asked.

The Qis were an aristocratic family. They could trace their nobility back to the Middle Ages. They were on good terms with the Yin and Yang Sect. If it was a force of the demonic sect, the Eastern Region would be thrown into violent turbulence.

“Not really.”

Mu Lingxi shook her hand and said, “The Demonic Sect has always been scheming to gain thorough control over the Qis. But the Qis’ foundation is too strong to shake overnight. The Sect has spent two hundred years on it, but they have not succeeded completely yet.

“Presently, the Demonic Sect has only controlled four of the the Qis’ eight main veins. That is, half of the Qis’ total power.”

Zhang Ruochen was more confused, and he asked, “Since the Moon Worship Demonic Sect hasn’t taken full control of the Qis, why did it still select Qi Feiyu as a Saintess?”

“Because Qi Feiyu is the daughter of Lin Suxian,” answered Mu Lingxi.

Zhang Ruochen furrowed his brow. He asked, “Who is Lin Suxian?”

Mu Lingxi sighed and said, “In fact, Lin Suxian is also a legendary female. She was a Saintess of the Demonic Sect, and she was even the first beauty in Kunlun’s Field two hundred years ago.

“In her time, everywhere she went she was followed by numerous Young Geniuses. It’s hard to count how many heroic figures threw themselves at her feet.

“Someone even killed thousands of creatures of a Primitive World just for her smile. Someone else chopped seven Half-Saints in half in a day just to see her.

“The people who have died for her are too numerous to mention, let alone the people who were heartbroken.”

Although Zhang Ruochen had not born in that age, he sighed ruefully after Mu Lingxi’s description, and he commented, “What a siren!”

Mu Lingxi said, “Lin Suxian loved only one man in her life.”

Zhang Ruochen said with a smile, “I think he must have been envied by all the men.”

“So what? At that time, he could defeat those of his age with a single move,” Mu Lingxi said proudly.

“Who?”

Zhang Ruochen was curious who the man was. Such a formidable figure would not merely be a nothing.

“Luo Xu,” said Mu Lingxi.

Surprised by her words, Zhang Ruochen said, “Predecessor Luo Xu!”

Zhang Ruochen was quite familiar with the name “Luo Xu.”

He was the leader of the Saint Luo Gentry, as well as Luo Shuihan’s great grandfather.

Like Zhang Ruochen, Luo Xu had been born in the Omen Ridge. All the Omen Ridge warriors considered him the best.

Luo Xu possessed mediocre talent, but with great effort, he had managed to fight his way to the Peak and, incredibly, turn into a Saint. He was a legend indeed.

One hundred years ago was the era of the five talents listed in the “Five Heroes.”

The era two hundred years ago belonged to Luo Xu alone. As Mu Lingxi said, Luo Xu could defeat anyone with only a single move.

Zhang Ruochen nodded repeatedly and said, “It’s a romantic legend indeed between a hero and a beauty. Wait, since predecessor Luo Xu and Lin Suxian were lovers, is Qi Feiyu the daughter of Lin Suxian?”

“Who says a beauty and a hero must have a happy ending?”

Mu Lingxi looked downcast and sighed. “In this world, there’s a power that is too incomparable to fight against.”
