Chapter 1966: True Form Revealed

Against such an aggressive Zhang Ruochen, Ling Feiyu’s body could not help but freeze as a murderous intent flashed past her eyes undetected.

However, she did not strike. Instead, she gradually gave up resistance and displayed a posture of reluctant welcoming.

“I wonder, how long can you pretend?” Zhang Ruochen said to himself.

He then got even more into it as his breathing became heavier and heavier. Meanwhile, his hand wandered around Ling Feiyu’s beautiful body with wanton abandon.

With a tear, Zhang Ruochen suddenly ripped the white robe off Ling Feiyu’s body.

“No… Stop…”

Ling Feiyu wanted to resist, but Zhang Ruochen kissed her petite mouth forcefully, and she could not say anything clearly at all.

Not too far away from the floating island, there was a very special white dimension in the palace hall. It was like a dream-like bubble; it was clearly there, yet it was invisible and intangible.

It was an illusory dimension that had been created by an extremely skilled Illusion Master. Even a top-level powerhouse might not be able to sense it.

Within the white illusory dimension were several people. Leading them was a burly man who was three meters tall and radiating a terrifying black Saint Light. There were tens of millions of Saint Path Precepts flowing slowly on his skin, demonstrating his strength.

He was none other than the Fane of Youshen’s number one elite beneath a Supreme Saint, a personal disciple of Youshen, Cang Long.

Behind Cang Long were all of the Fane of Youshen’s top powerhouses, and the remaining two of the Six Fatals were there as well.

In addition, there was a valiant-looking man with purple qi lingering all over his body. He was staring at Zhang Ruochen with vengeful eyes at that moment.

The man had a significant origin and had been born in the number one faction of the Hongyang Macroworld, the Purple Sky Hall. He was called Zifeng. He was the elder twin brother of the Ziyang Saint King, whom Zhang Ruochen had killed at the bottom of the Cliff of Doom.

The Zifeng Saint King was even more powerful than the Ziyang Saint King, and his cultivation base had already reached Path’s Anterior.

Although no one saw Zhang Ruochen slay the Ziyang Saint King, by virtue of blood connection and certain arcane techniques, the Zifeng Saint King had managed to lock onto Zhang Ruochen. He deemed Zhang Ruochen his nemesis for killing his younger brother.

Looking at the scene on the cold sacred jade bed, Cang Long’s body trembled as his eyes burned with raging fury. “Damn you… Damn you!”

“Senior Brother Cang Long, calm down. Any rash actions will ruin the plan!”

Seeing that Cang Long was about to explode in rage, one of the Fane of Youshen’s Six Fatals, the Great Dragon Spirit Lord, immediately spoke to calm the former down.

One of the Six Fatals, the Nine-headed Dragon Prince also echoed his sentiment. “Yes, this plan has been concocted by Senior Sister Ruan Ling, and we can only take the Qiankun Realm, as well as seize the Divine Sky-connecting Tree, in one fell swoop if we get Zhang Ruochen to fully lower his guard. The overall situation is more important, Senior Brother Cang Long. Please restrain yourself.”

Even the Zifeng Saint King chimed in, “Brother Cang Long, please don’t be rash. Zhang Ruochen is extremely cunning and has many tricks up his sleeves. If he becomes alarmed, then all of our efforts may go up in smoke. Are you willing to let the Qiankun Realm, the Divine Sky-connecting Tree, the Meritorious Armor of Flowing Light, and so on just fly away like that?”

“Arghh!”

Cang Long let out a furious roar and almost kicked up a fuss.

In the end, however, he still resisted the urge and did not make any rash moves.

He knew very well what kind of temper Ruan Ling had. If he interfered and ruined the plan, Ruan Ling would never forgive him that easily.

Nevertheless, seeing Zhang Ruochen toy with Ruan Ling with such ruthless abandon really pushed him to the brink of insanity. He had always seen Ruan Ling as his woman and never thought that the woman, whom he had yet to touch, would be taken advantage of by Zhang Ruochen.

Cang Long clenched his fists as he gritted his teeth. “Zhang Ruochen, I will definitely make sure that you wish you were dead. I’ll torture you for a thousand years… no, ten thousand years, to sate my hatred.”

Seeing Cang Long not act, both the Great Dragon Spirit Lord and the Nine-Headed Dragon Prince could not help but breathe sighs of relief. They were really afraid that Cang Long would charge out in a fury.

If they caused Ruan Ling’s plan to fall apart, the two of them would definitely suffer horrible consequences.

Thinking of what Ruan Ling could do, both of them shuddered.

In order to not get punished by Ruan Ling, they had to keep Cang Long in check.

“He’s doing it!”

On the sacred jade bed, Zhang Ruochen pushed away Ling Feiyu’s hands and made a forward grabbing motion as he tore off the last layer of her bodice.

At that moment, the white illusory dimension that Cang Long and the rest were in suddenly became blurry, and they could no longer see or hear what was going on outside.

“Zhang Ruochen! I will kill you!” Cang Long roared as he unleashed a terrifying murderous intent.

The Great Dragon Spirit Lord’s expression changed as he extended his hand to hold Cang Long. “Brother Cang Long, remember the Qiankun Realm and the Divine Sky-connecting Tree!”

The Nine-headed Dragon Prince also held Cang Long back as he tried his best to console him. “Senior Sister Ruan Ling is doing this for you. Brother Cang Long, you must not ruin her good intentions. Don’t worry, Senior Sister Ruan Ling will definitely not be taken advantage of.”

“With things already at such a state, you’re still saying that Ruan Ling won’t be taken advantage of?” Cang Long glared at the Nine-headed Dragon Prince.

A look of fear appeared in the eyes of the Nine-headed Dragon Prince, and he quickly added, “Senior Sister Ruan Ling intends to have Zhang Ruochen totally lower his guard. She will definitely be making her move soon enough and will not allow Zhang Ruochen to do as he pleases.”

“Yes, yes, zhang Ruochen will not be hopping around for too long now. Everything is under Senior Sister Ruan Ling’s control,” the Great Dragon Spirit Lord agreed.

Cang Long’s fury was now at its breaking point, and he was just a step away from exploding. His tiny bit of remaining reason was about to get overwhelmed by rage.

On the ice-cold sacred jade bed, seeing Zhang Ruochen was completely lost in his lust, a cold sneer appeared in Ling Feiyu’s eyes as she suddenly raised her hand, and stabbed at Zhang Ruochen’s brow like lightning.

Simultaneously, a glint appeared in Zhang Ruochen’s eyes. His movement was faster than Ling Feiyu as he held his hand out and grabbed her by the neck, pressing the latter hard against the bed and immobilizing her.

“You…”

Ling Feiyu’s face was full of shock as she did not expect this to happen.

“Watch out!”

At that exact moment, a voice warned as a hidden illusory dimension at the center of Ling Feiyu’s brow shattered. A figure flashed out of it and transforming into another Ling Feiyu.

At the same time, the face of the “Ling Feiyu”, whose neck was being held by Zhang Ruochen, changed as she transformed into a different person. Her body and appearance were no less beautiful than the real Ling Feiyu’s.

With this, the situation could not have been clearer.

Looking at the stunning beauty whose neck was in his grasp, Zhang Ruochen coldly said, “Ruan Ling, Youshen’s personal disciple who majors in spiritual power and is the top Illusion Master beneath a Supreme Saint. You sure sacrificed a lot to set a trap for me.”

The person before him was one of the Fane of Youshen’s two leaders, Ruan Ling. Her spiritual power was extremely powerful, and her illusion techniques were her trump card. Even a top-tier Path’s Anterior powerhouse could be fooled by her.

Despite Zhang Ruochen’s powerful Level 59 spiritual power, he could not see through Ruan Ling’s illusions in the beginning. That was a testament to how terrifying her illusions were.

Of course, no matter how strong Ruan Ling’s spiritual powers and illusions were, now that Zhang Ruochen was holding her by the neck, she could no longer do anything.

Turning his head, Zhang Ruochen looked at the real Ling Feiyu and asked with concern, “How are you?”

He was sure that she was the real Ling Feiyu because Ling Feiyu wore the Dianmu Purple Robe and held the Heaven’s Fall Blade as she radiated a terrifying Sword Will from her body. Her sword was something that Zhang Ruochen was most familiar with, and no one could imitate it.

Ling Feiyu shook her head and said, “I’m fine. This person took your appearance not too long ago to test my waters. Although I saw through her illusion, I was still entrapped by her and locked inside an illusory dimension. After that, she took my appearance and waited for you to be hooked in.

“She wanted me to see with my own eyes how you would fall into her trap step by step as she took all of your treasures away from you. Then she would take you back to the Fane of Youshen.”

“So, you’re saying that you are in the illusory dimension between her eyebrows? You could hear and see everything outside?” Zhang Ruochen asked.

A strange emotion flashed in Ling Feiyu’s eyes as she nodded.

Hearing this, Zhang Ruochen could not help but feel a little embarrassed. It meant that Ling Feiyu not only heard what he had said to Ruan Ling, she had also witnessed the scene earlier.

“How did you find out?” Ruan Ling suddenly asked right then.

She had thought her setup flawless, without any cracks, and Zhang Ruochen had indeed fallen for it. So, why did he suddenly strike at her?

Zhang Ruochen composed himself and turned to look at Ruan Ling before he explained, “Your disguise was indeed perfect. Even without the Dianmu Purple Robe or the Heaven’s Fall Blade, I didn’t have much doubt. You almost made me believe that you were the real Feiyu.

“However, when I talked about the seventh life in the Portrait of Seven Lives and Seven Deaths, you actually said that we lived together for the rest of our lives. That was a massive flaw, which made me doubtful. Hence, I just took the opportunity to test you, and sure enough, you exposed more flaws as I went on. The real Ling Feiyu would not have acted the way you did.”

He knew Ling Feiyu very well, and under normal circumstances, if he dared to be as brazen as he was earlier, Ling Feiyu would definitely teach him a painful lesson. She would never allow him to act so wantonly.

Inside the white illusory dimension, Cang Long constantly paced in place as time passed extremely slow for him.

Now that he could not see or hear what was going on outside, he had no idea what was happening there.

He teetered on the edge of explosive rage, especially when he recalled the scene of Zhang Ruochen pulling Ruan Ling’s last bodice off and pressing himself on her

“I can’t wait any longer!”

A moment later, Cang Long roared, no longer able to hold back his anger.

Boom!!

Cang Long struck and forcibly tore the illusory dimension open.

Both the Great Dragon Spirit Lord and the Nine-headed Dragon Prince wanted to stop him, but they were too late.

As soon as he rushed out, Cang Long’s gaze was locked on Zhang Ruochen and Ruan Ling. When he saw that Ruan Ling was being restrained by Zhang Ruochen and that her face showed her struggling in pain, Cang Long went into a fit of rage.

“Zhang Ruochen, you b*stard! I’ll kill you!”

Cang Long’s mind had already filled in the blanks as to what happened between Zhang Ruochen and Ruan Ling. His eyes immediately turned red as his body exuded a terrifying desire to kill.

In fact, how he wished he could rip Zhang Ruochen into a million pieces now, but with Ruan Ling in Zhang Ruochen’s hands, he had to be cautious. He could not afford to make any rash moves.

Ling Feiyu’s expression had changed slightly. Just now, the scene of Zhang Ruochen being affectionate with Ruan Ling had subconsciously appeared in her mind, and an inexplicable feeling had crept into her heart. As a result, she had totally forgotten about Cang Long and the others who were hiding inside a nearby illusory dimension. She failed to warn Zhang Ruochen in time.

Zhang Ruochen appeared extremely calm and showed no signs of panic as if he had already noticed the existence of Cang Long and the others.

With a flip of his hand, he took out a Saint Binding Rope and bound Ruan Ling.

He also treated Ruan Ling well enough as he wrapped her in a single-layer white gown.

“Cang Long, I came to look for you specifically, but I did not expect you to be so useless that you’d let a woman deal with me instead. I’m really disappointed in you.” Zhang Ruochen shook his head.

Hearing this, Cang Long became even angrier as he growled. “Zhang Ruochen, I am here, let go of Ruan Ling, all of our grievances will be settled between you and me.”

Zhang Ruochen shook the sacred rope in his hand, his gaze turning sharp. “All right, I’ll give you this one opportunity. Follow me,” he said.

While he spoke, Zhang Ruochen wrapped Ling Feiyu and Ruan Ling in a dimensional domain. Then he transformed into a ray of rainbow light as he flew out of the palace hall.

Seeing this, Cang Long did not hesitate at all as he immediately chased after him.

The Great Dragon Spirit Lord, the Zifeng Saint King, and the others did not tarry either. They followed suit one after another.
