“It’s not just obvious, it’s downright aggressive.” Shui Xin said leisurely, “According to Second Master, he met Mr. Ye once before and they talked about some things, but they didn’t reach an agreement.”
"That's true. I've met with Master Liang," Ye Xingchen said. "We didn't reach an agreement, but we don't have any deep-seated hatred for each other."
“Then I don’t understand. Mr. Ye’s visit to Jinling this time is too obviously targeted,” Shui Xin said. “I want to know what’s going on and what the reason is?”
"Is it you who wants to know, or does Second Master Liang want to know?" Ye Xingchen asked.
"Is there... any difference?" Shui Xin looked at Ye Xingchen, her beautiful eyes sparkling as she gazed at him.
“There is a difference.” Ye Xingchen nodded: “The reason you want to know and the reason that Master Liang wants to know are not the same thing.”
“I am Second Master’s woman, and I am completely devoted to him.” Shui Xin smiled faintly: “What I want to know is what Second Master wants to ask.”
“That’s still different.” Ye Xingchen smiled slightly and leaned closer to Shui Xin: “In this world, the most difficult thing to grasp is the human heart.”
"You, Shuixin, seem to be willing to live and die with Master Liang, but no one knows what you're really thinking."
"What do you mean by that?" Shui Xin's smile froze.
"Haha, Ms. Shui should understand what I mean." Ye Xingchen laughed: "Women are the best at disguising themselves in this world."
"The face a woman presents to the outside world is the face she wants others to see, but no one knows how many other faces lie beneath that face." Ye Xingchen laughed heartily: "Take you for example... You possess the seductive arts of the Hehuan Sect, and you can manipulate all the men in the world at will."
"But you insist on being with a man you don't like. Who understands why?"
“You…” Shui Xin’s face, which had always carried a charming smile, froze instantly. She slowly raised her head and looked directly into Ye Xingchen’s eyes.
A faint pink light flickered deep within her pupils.
The atmosphere around them suddenly became ambiguous, and Ye Xingchen felt a stinging discomfort in her heart, as if being scratched by a cat.
Yet, the air around him was filled with a fragrant aroma, as if countless beautiful women were flirting and teasing him.
The threefold malevolence represents a profound level of seductive arts within the Hehuan Sect.
Once unleashed, even a high-ranking monk who has been in meditation for many years would likely be distracted and fall into the other person's lustful desires, constantly sinking into depravity.
Ye Xingchen stood there, motionless.
Shui Xin slowly exhaled, smiled slightly, walked up to Ye Xingchen, put one hand on his shoulder, and then pressed her whole body against him.
"My little nemesis, you are indeed extraordinary. I hid it so well, yet you saw through my origins of the Hehuan Sect at a glance."
"But so what? Before the Hehuan Sect was destroyed, I had already obtained its sect's secrets. With such treacherous intentions, how could you not succumb to my beauty?"
"Besides, what man doesn't understand romance?"
She slipped one hand inside Ye Xingchen's collar, and with a gentle hook, Ye Xingchen's buttons came undone. Her hand then slid down his chest.
"What great muscles! Let me take good care of you, okay?"
As she spoke, her body went limp, and she leaned against Ye Xingchen.
However, at that moment, Ye Xingchen suddenly retreated.
Caught off guard, Shui Xin fell to the ground with a thud, letting out a howl before clutching her head and getting up.
She glared at Ye Xingchen, only to see him standing in front of her as if nothing had happened, about three feet away, keeping his distance.
"This is truly a triple malice, indeed impressive." Ye Xingchen gave a thumbs up: "For a moment, even I almost couldn't resist succumbing to it."
"Fortunately, I have a profound understanding of the world and strong self-control," Ye Xingchen said to himself. "Lust is a knife that can cut to the bone; that's absolutely true."
Ye Xingchen's words sounded a bit shameless. Strong self-control? The girls who had been with him would definitely call him shameless if they heard this.
"You really are different from others." Shui Xin composed herself and resumed her smiling demeanor. "Men like this are truly captivating, but unfortunately, they are somewhat oblivious to romance."
"It's not that I'm clueless about romance, it's more a matter of whether I'm interested or not," Ye Xingchen shook his head.
"So that means you're not interested in me?" Shui Xin said, somewhat annoyed.
“I’m not really interested.” Ye Xingchen nodded. “I’m just curious about your identity. The women of the Hehuan Sect are skilled in seductive arts, and each one of them is a peerless beauty.”
"Moreover, their seductive arts are first-rate, and their skills are superb. If one could buy them as companions, one would enjoy life to the fullest. Moreover, the seductive arts they have cultivated are most suitable as furnaces for cultivators."
"Therefore, more than ten years ago, the Hehuan Sect was wiped out. The women in the sect either committed suicide by drawing their swords, were captured and refined into furnaces, or were bought by wealthy people to enjoy their pleasure."
"Since then, the Hehuan Sect seemed to have disappeared from the public eye, but I never expected to encounter someone from the Hehuan Sect today."
"You seem to know quite a bit about the Hehuan Sect?" Shui Xin smiled faintly. "I've been hiding it so well, yet you were able to see through it at a glance?"
"You've hidden it quite well, but this kind of seductive skill is ingrained in your bones. Ordinary people don't have such a charming figure, so I recognized you as soon as you got close to me," Ye Xingchen said with a smile. "Moreover, your wicked intentions are threefold, which is not something that ordinary people can easily counteract."
"Haha, I'm becoming more and more interested in you." Shui Xin laughed heartily. "Now that you know my identity, what do you plan to do?"
"Nothing to do, just pretend you don't know," Ye Xingchen said. "I don't quite understand what your purpose is in hiding your identity and staying by Liang Chenghu's side."
“But you must have your reasons, and I think you are most likely seeking revenge, and there is bound to be a battle between me and Liang Chenghu.”
"So you're not an enemy, you're a friend. Maybe we can cooperate when it matters."
Shui Xin fell silent, looking at Ye Xingchen with a complicated expression: "You're a smart person."
"Thank you for the compliment, but it's useless. If I'm not mistaken, you want to learn about me on behalf of Liang Chenghu, right?" Ye Xingchen said with a smile, "Go back and tell him what kind of person I am, and by the way, inform him that only one of us can survive."
"Is this a declaration of war?" Shui Xin asked.
"You're right, this is a declaration of war." Ye Xingchen nodded slowly, then turned and left.
