After hearing the sound of water, Xue Huan controlled the Five Elements Beads and moved behind the screen after a while. The masked man was sitting in the pool with his back to her, his white and slender arms resting on the pool wall, and his long, shiny black hair draped over his shoulders.
This killing sight from behind made Xue Huan breathless.
And it also feels strangely familiar.
She couldn't help but think of Pei Ji. When she applied medicine to him before, he also exposed his entire back in front of her.
Xue Huan shook her head, getting rid of the indecent image in her mind.
She controlled the Five Elements Beads to turn to the front of the masked man, and found that he had not taken off the mask at all.
Doesn't this guy even wash his face after showering? He's wearing a mask.
He couldn't possibly wear it while sleeping, so Xue Huan decided to wait until he fell asleep at night and secretly take off his mask to see his true face.
She waited and waited until the masked man finished taking a bath and reading. She was almost falling asleep, but it turned out that he had no intention of sleeping at all. Instead, he sat cross-legged and practiced.
Originally, Xue Huan wasn't very interested in the face under his mask, but since she had already invested quite a bit of time in it, she would feel a little unwilling if she didn't see it.
She simply put an invisibility talisman on herself and performed a breath-concealing spell, in order to prevent even the slightest bit of her breath from leaking out.
Immediately, she came out of the space, cast an illusion, and lit a stick of dream incense.
As the name suggests, dream fragrance is a kind of fragrance that can make people fall asleep.
She thought about using an illusion on the masked man, but he was practicing martial arts. If the illusion had any effect on him and caused him to lose his breath, it would be her fault.
So let's take a gentler approach.
The dream incense burned for nearly twenty seconds before the masked man collapsed onto the bed. Three seconds would have been enough for an ordinary person, but the fact that he could hold out for twenty seconds was a testament to his profound skill.
Xue Huan waited for a while, confirming that the masked man was really bewitched by Meng Xiang, then she walked over gently and reached out to remove the mask from his face.
Unexpectedly, the next moment, her wrist was suddenly grabbed.
Oh no! The masked man is not bewitched at all, he is just pretending!
Seeing the masked man's other hand coming towards her, Xue Huan couldn't dodge as he held her wrist, so she could only raise her hand to block.
Unexpectedly, the masked man changed his offensive midway, deflected his palm and slapped it to the side. A stone table not far away was shattered into pieces by this palm.
This shows the power of the masked man's palm.
If he hit me, I might really vomit blood.
Although she was a cultivator, a cultivator in the Qi Refining stage was still a mortal, and her martial arts skills were not necessarily much higher than those of martial arts masters. Moreover, she had only reached the third level of Qi Refining after retraining. In terms of her own strength, she was no match for him.
Xue Huan was still frightened and took the opportunity to kick the masked man in the lower body, but he grabbed her ankle directly.
The man's big hand was like an iron clamp, holding her so that she couldn't move at all.
The next moment, she felt dizzy and was pinned down on the bed by him!
The masked man covered her completely, trapping her with his limbs.
Xue Huan felt a pain in her chest from being pressed by him.
At this moment, a burst of hurried footsteps sounded outside the door, "Master, are you okay? I just heard some noise..."
The masked man lifted himself up slightly from Xue Huan's body and said calmly, "It's okay."
"That's good. I'll be standing guard outside. If you need anything, just tell me."
"No, you can go down."
"……yes."
The steward's footsteps gradually faded away.
Xue Huan looked at the person on her body, and strangely, she didn't feel worried or afraid. She just felt embarrassed, as if she was caught doing something bad by an acquaintance.
She tried to move, but couldn't get free.
"What do you want to do by breaking into my room in the middle of the night?"
The masked man's voice sounded above her head.
There was no trace of murderous intent or anger in his voice, he was as calm as snow.
Because they were too close, the hot air he exhaled when he spoke entered her cochlea, making her feel uncomfortable.
What's even worse is that he discovered her identity!
She dressed up as "Young Master Zhao", but only changed her face. Her body was given male features through magic. In fact, it was still her own body. There seemed to be nothing wrong with it, but once she came into contact with it, she would be exposed.
Just like now, the two of them were almost touching each other, it would be strange if he didn't notice.
Xue Huan didn't know how to answer his question. She said that she had discovered his rebellious behavior, and that he looked very similar to someone she knew, so she wanted to secretly take off his mask to see his true face?
If she really said that, he would probably kill her on the spot to silence her.
Of course, she wouldn't give him this opportunity.
Xue Huan said slowly: "If I say, I came..."
A black shadow swept towards the masked man. It was the molehill that she had secretly released.
Xue Huan fully expected that she could take advantage of the masked man's opportunity to escape, but he hid and even dragged her with him.
He rolled her around on the bed, one arm firmly clasped around her waist.
When the Sandshrew was about to continue attacking, the masked man pinched the back of her neck and whispered in her ear: "Stop your pet, or else—"
His lips brushed against her earlobe, and Xue Huan trembled all over. She didn't even bother to hide her voice: "Xiaoshan, stop!"
Xiaoshan was the name she gave to the mole beast.
Upon hearing this, the mole beast immediately stopped, but continued to lie there, staring at the masked man with its huge eyes bulging.
It smelled a familiar scent from this human, as if it had smelled it somewhere before.
Her chin was suddenly pinched, and then something cold fell into her mouth. Before Xue Huan could react, the thing melted in her mouth!
Xue Huan: “!!!”
"What did you feed me?"
The masked man said cheerfully, "Poison."
Xue Huan felt it and was speechless. She had been learning alchemy for a while, and although she had not yet mastered it, she had at least gained a much better understanding of the medicinal properties and was no longer unable to tell whether a pill was poisonous or not.
How could this person have fed himself poison? It was clearly a sugar pill, and it tasted quite good, with a refreshing sweetness.
Did he want her to believe that she had taken poison and then be threatened by him?
Xue Huan licked her lips. "Really? This poison is sweet and tastes good. Do you have any more? Give me another one."
Strangely enough, even though she was trapped by this man and even though he had fed her "poison", she didn't feel the slightest bit of vigilance or fear towards him. She just had an inexplicable confidence that he wouldn't hurt her.
Otherwise, she would have greeted him with talismans long ago.
The masked man didn't expect her to react like this. He was stunned for a moment, then couldn't help but let out a low laugh. The sound was so magnetic and pleasant that it made her ears itch.
"You are such an interesting girl, but I only have one of these poison pills."
Xue Huan sighed, "That's a shame. Sir, can we have a discussion?"
"What?"
"Can you get up from me? Aren't you tired of talking like this?"
