How angry was Zuo Qiu Li now?
She probably didn’t even know herself.
First, that dumb pig Li Muqun betrayed her at the critical moment, sealing her mouth with a strand of Vital Energy.
Then that boar Li Muqun suddenly came up with the idea to mercilessly torture her using the Shao Yang Immortal Foundation.
Didn’t he know?! For someone like her whose soul was fused with his, that Shao Yang Immortal Foundation was an incredibly rare Catalyst for Star Ascendance in this world!
Well, maybe he really didn’t know.
But now that he had found out this secret, would she ever have a good day again?
Just the thought of that warm, almost mind-melting sensation made a flush of crimson bloom across Zuo Qiu Li’s cheeks.
Damn beast, pervert, idiot pig.
Just don’t let me catch your weakness!
She ground her canine teeth in fury, cursing silently.
But she hadn’t expected her curse to come true so quickly.
Only a few days passed before Li Muqun’s master put on a performance just for her.
Obstruction-Clearing Calamity-Breaking Pill this, Vitality Qi that.
Is your proper pill TM printed with hearts? Are your genuine Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures TM the same as a Catalyst for Star Ascendance?
Even after recognizing Luo Zhilan’s illicit schemes, Zuo Qiu Li didn’t warn Li Muqun.
“Hmph, I want to see the ugly look on your face after taking this pill!”
But the moment the pill dissolved inside Li Muqun and transformed into a purple aura, Zuo Qiu Li could no longer laugh.
Huh? Why is this aura heading straight for the Sea of Consciousness?
Huh? Why is it sealing Li Muqun’s Spirit Intelligence?
Huh? Why doesn’t it spare me either?
Perhaps due to the soul fusion, this “Heavenly Demon Heart-Devouring Great Pill” actually treated Zuo Qiu Li’s soul as part of itself.
It seized her, instantly refining her.
By the time she tried to struggle, the “Heavenly Demon Heart-Devouring Great Pill” had already firmly sealed her entire soul deep within the Sea of Consciousness, unable to move.
From then on, like a powerless wife, she could only watch as Li Muqun was toyed with in Luo Zhilan’s hands, slowly hypnotized bit by bit.
What kind of Evil Path trick is this TM?
As a Qingqiu Fox specializing in souls, Zuo Qiu Li grew increasingly alarmed.
Such a vicious method was likely never used even by those in the Evil Path.
Only the Western Sect, destroyed by the Alliance of Righteous and Evil all those years ago, might have possessed such a curse.
No wonder—this perverse, obsessive, cold-on-the-outside but secretly scheming and malicious Wood Pearl Fairy!
Unable to resist, Zuo Qiu Li could only curse Luo Zhilan, the mastermind behind it all.
But a more serious problem loomed.
If she couldn’t stop Luo Zhilan from “training” Li Muqun, once he lost himself completely, she would also be forever trapped.
Trapped deep in the Sea of Consciousness, forced to watch an eternal eighteen-plus master-slave drama.
No way.
But with her current strength, breaking free was pure fantasy.
Even if she escaped, how could she awaken Li Muqun’s lost mind? How could she escape the pursuit of this perverse fairy?
One problem after another, each more difficult than the last—practically impossible.
There was no way she could do it alone.
Unless… she found another ally?
So while Li Muqun told stories to Luo Dan’er, she cursed bitterly at the idiot for not understanding a girl’s heart, while gathering all her strength to sneak a thought into Li Muqun’s consciousness with great difficulty.
That’s why Li Muqun told the story of the Dragon Clan, why he won Luo Dan’er’s favor.
Though the follow-up was laughable, it at least connected her to Luo Dan’er.
Zuo Qiu Li thought long and hard—not only about how to use Luo Dan’er to provoke Li Muqun and gain a chance to break free, but also about Luo Dan’er’s background, which might be the only hope in this uneven game of strength.
Luo Zhilan’s trace of Innate Spiritual Qi combined with years of pill-fog refining!
The latter wasn’t crucial; what mattered was that trace of Innate Spiritual Qi.
Innate Spiritual Qi is a fragment of original spirit energy a cultivator carries from before birth, a sort of life fate, a seed.
Just as a baby is a continuation of its parents’ life, Luo Zhilan’s act of splitting off part of her Innate Spiritual Qi could be seen as cutting out a piece of herself to form a new individual continuation.
But even separated from the main body, the Innate Spiritual Qi still maintained a connection.
A bold plan took shape in Zuo Qiu Li’s mind.
Endure, Zuo Qiu Li, you must endure!
Wait for the right moment, wait for the perfect opportunity!
Finally, amid Luo Zhilan’s arrogance, Luo Dan’er’s cries, and Li Muqun’s struggles, Zuo Qiu Li got the moment she had been waiting for.
The “Heavenly Demon Heart-Devouring Great Pill,” pulsing with purple light, was already suppressing Li Muqun’s resistance, but unexpectedly, turbulence appeared deep within the Sea of Consciousness.
“Li Muqun, help me break the seal!”
“No! She’s going to break the seal!”
“Deep-rooted!”
Above the Sea of Consciousness, the “Heavenly Demon Heart-Devouring Great Pill” immediately reacted, its purple aura pressing down fiercely on the depths of the Sea.
At the same time, Luo Zhilan’s eyes flashed with disdain from outside the Sea of Consciousness.
She lightly waved her jade hand, resting it atop Li Muqun’s head, slightly stirring her Vital Energy and taunting with her Divine Sense: “Slave Qun, you were born to be my slave—that’s your fate!”
Li Muqun’s consciousness, usually so silent, rarely responded like this.
“To hell with fate! Slave or man, I decide for myself!”
With that, Li Muqun’s consciousness fiercely tore through the seal of the “Heavenly Demon Heart-Devouring Great Pill,” coordinating with Zuo Qiu Li inside, briefly incapacitating the pill’s manifestations and creating a small opening.
“Alright, alright! You really are made to be a demon pill!” Zuo Qiu Li laughed loudly, breaking free from the pill’s control and shouting at Li Muqun:
“Li Muqun, you really are damned!”
Her angry voice echoed through the Daoist Temple, and the previously dazed Li Muqun regained some clarity.
“If you don’t want to become that madwoman’s toy forever, then stall her for at least one incense stick’s time!”
After saying this, a wisp of cyan aura, right under Luo Zhilan’s nose, rushed straight to the five-fold tied-up Luo Dan’er.
Suicide!
Though unclear of the intent, to Luo Zhilan these unexpected events were just small mishaps easily erased with a single wave of spiritual power.
You want Slave Qun to stop me? He’s just a Foundation Establishment Cultivator—let him get past the “Heavenly Demon Heart-Devouring Great Pill” first!
Luo Zhilan pushed Li Muqun away, reaching out to crush the mysterious cyan aura.
But in the next moment, a warm sensation came from her lips.
?
She froze, looking down to see Li Muqun pressing a kiss on her, adopting the posture of a master, pinning her onto the bed.
“Slave Qun, how dare you… mmm!”
She started to scold, but Li Muqun kissed more forcefully, the strong suction as if trying to fuse their minds together.
The rubbing of their noses and his overwhelming presence almost made her mind blank.
“Impious, ugh, impious disciple.”
Li Muqun’s kisses grew more intense, his hands hugging Luo Zhilan’s voluptuous waist, becoming restless.
“Ugh, Qun, Quner, let your master, ugh ugh ugh.”
Luo Zhilan’s calls gradually turned into heavy breaths.
Nearby, the cyan aura, to Luo Dan’er’s astonished eyes, transformed into a beautiful young girl with beast ears and a blue tail, landing before her.
Zuo Qiu Li used a strand of Vital Energy to remove the seal from Luo Dan’er’s mouth.
“Miss Dan’er, I won’t introduce myself.”
“The situation is urgent. If you trust me, cooperate and allow my soul to merge with that trace of Innate Spiritual Qi in your body. Right now, this is the only way to save your mother!”
“Bu–”
Luo Dan’er was about to ask more, but her gaze flickered over to the couple tightly entwined on the bed.
Her mother’s lovely face was flushed—whether from lack of oxygen or excitement, she didn’t know.
The swollen wedding dress at her chest was even dampened.
The noses rubbing against each other, her eyes only held satisfied happiness and burning desire.
Damn Li Muqun!
“Alright, no matter what it takes, I’ll cooperate!”
She gritted her teeth, willingly dropping all defenses inside her.
“Good, very good!”
Zuo Qiu Li transformed into cyan energy, plunging into Luo Dan’er’s body, surging fiercely until she found that pure trace of Innate Spiritual Qi.
This Innate Spiritual Qi was so strong that just standing nearby made Zuo Qiu Li’s soul sting faintly, but on her face was only a smile.
“Luo Zhilan!”
“Come, let us count your crimes!”
