Chapter 162 Danger at the Spring, Possessed by a Dark Shadow
"Aaaaaah—!"
"What is that?!"
The startled cry from Qingyu in the spring made Feng Yue's heart tremble. He saw a tentacle covered in bumps wrap around him and suspend him in mid-air.
Is it a monster?
"Qingyu!" Feng Yue immediately summoned a black treasure sword, leaped up in a few steps, and slashed down fiercely at the tentacle.
However, the tentacle was exceptionally tough; the blade only managed to cut in about an inch, and it couldn't cause any damage at all.
Fortunately, it could feel pain and immediately released Qingyu from its grip. Feng Yue caught him in a flash, threw a few talismans at it, and then ran away.
Just then, a thick tentacle suddenly swept in from the side, slamming the two unsuspecting people into the water. Before they could react, they were entangled by something wet, soft, and cold.
Feng Yue struggled to look down into the water, when he suddenly met a pair of fierce, crimson eyes. It looked like an octopus-like monster.
He immediately circulated his spiritual power, intending to loosen the restraints on his body, but they only tightened further.
Qingyu was also in bad shape. Her tall, almost naked body was marked with bloody welts from the restraints. She had very little spiritual energy left, and she couldn't even summon the protective lotus to protect herself.
A look of heartache appeared in Feng Yue's eyes. He summoned all the magical treasures within his body and attacked the tentacle that was entangled with Qing Yu.
"Leave me alone!" Qing Yu's eyes showed a resolute look upon seeing this. There were still a few explosive talismans in her storage ring. At worst, she would just perish together with it!
But Feng Yue refused to listen to him, enduring the pain in his body, and used his spiritual power to control the magic weapon to increase the intensity of the attack.
Through his tireless efforts, the tentacle that was binding Qingyu was finally severed. The octopus monster underwater let out a painful roar, causing the spring to burst and the water to churn.
Qingyu, who had choked on water, was accidentally thrown to the edge of the pool and lay on the grass, coughing violently.
"Hurry up and run!!"
Feng Yue's painful voice came, causing Qing Yu to look up.
Blood trickled from the corner of his mouth, and his tightly bound body emitted a horrifying cracking sound.
"No, no..." Qingyu shook her head with bloodshot eyes, looking at the water with a resolute look in her eyes. She activated the explosive talisman in her hand with her spiritual power and jumped into the water, diving underwater.
"Qingyu, don't go!"
Upon seeing this, Feng Yue felt his liver and gallbladder tremble. The power of those few explosive talismans was so immense that even if they could truly defeat the monsters underwater, he would hardly escape death on his journey.
Suddenly, he remembered the dark shadow inside his body, and a glimmer of hope arose in his heart. He pleaded, "Senior, please, save him!"
"Oh, so you've finally remembered me?"
Feng Yue looked down into the water, but Qing Yu was nowhere to be seen.
After waiting a moment, seeing that he seemed to have no intention of helping, she said anxiously, "You promised Junior Brother that you would help me when I was in danger. Are you going to break your promise?!"
"Hmph, I only promised to protect you; I have no say in the others!"
"You—!" Feng Yue became anxious and said, "Then what do you want in return for your help?"
Seeing that his goal had been achieved, the shadowy figure chuckled and said, "Give me a few days of access to your body each month, or else there's nothing to discuss!"
Feng Yue: "If you go out and commit all sorts of evil deeds and kill innocent people, wouldn't I become a sinner for all eternity? How could I possibly agree to that!"
"Hmph, do you even have a choice?"
"You—!" Feng Yue gritted his teeth and roared, "I promise you, just save him now!"
Hearing this, the shadowy figure was somewhat surprised. He had never been able to get the man to agree before, no matter how much he pleaded. He never expected him to agree this time. "Hahaha, I didn't expect you to be such a romantic!"
"Stop dawdling!"
"Don't rush, don't rush. Remove the spiritual power from the Demon-Sealing Seal and let me possess your body."
Upon hearing this, Feng Yue could only close his eyes and do as he was told.
Underwater.
Qingyu finally dived deep into the depths and saw the octopus monster hiding among the rocks. Its beastly eyes were full of mockery, as if it was looking down on his dying struggle.
Qingyu naturally sensed its contempt, and her anger flared up instantly. "You ugly thing, prepare to die!"
After he finished speaking, he threw all the explosive talismans in his hand at the monster.
Unexpectedly, the talismans stopped and flew straight towards the water's surface after being lightly touched by the monster's tentacles.
Seeing this, Qingyu's heart trembled slightly, "Feng Yue!"
He couldn't care less about anything else at that moment. He tried to struggle to surface, but a slippery tentacle wrapped around his body and pulled him down.
"Bang bang bang bang—!"
A deafening explosion echoed across the water's surface, and bursts of fire reflected into the depths, stinging Qingyu's eyes and causing her to squint. Tears of despair welled up instantly.
Feng Yue... I'm sorry.
"Roar! Roar! Roar!" Suddenly, the roar of a monster came from his ear, and the tentacles that had been binding him were cut off.
Immediately afterwards, a powerful force struck down, splitting the monster in two, killing it instantly.
Two enormous bodies gradually sank to the bottom of the water, and Feng Yue suddenly appeared in the water, holding a dark, gleaming demon core in his hand.
Not only was his body shrouded in wisps of black energy, but he also exuded a terrifying aura of pressure, causing Qing Yu to tremble involuntarily.
Suddenly, Qingyu, who was lost in thought, felt her body being pulled up by a force and slowly floated up to Feng Yue's side.
His pupils glowed with an eerie red light, and a strange, sinister smile played on his lips, sending chills down one's spine.
He is not Feng Yue.
For some reason, Qingyu became certain and began to struggle violently, but the invisible force made it impossible for him to escape.
Suddenly, a hand gripped his waist and slowly slid down towards his buttocks...
Qingyu gasped and her body trembled violently. She frowned as she looked at 'Feng Yue' in front of her and raised her hand to slap him.
Unexpectedly, Feng Yue grabbed his wrist, tightly embraced his slender waist, chuckled, and leaned down to kiss his lips.
This scene infuriated Feng Yue within his sea of consciousness, who roared, "You bastard, you're not allowed to touch him!"
"Tsk, you seem to be holding back. I'll take care of him for you. Anyway, this body is yours, so you won't lose out."
"No!" Feng Yue's eyes turned bloodshot with anger as he roared, "If you continue like this, our agreement is null and void!"
Upon hearing this, the shadowy figure looked at him with a disappointed expression, "Coward, fine, fine, do as you please!"
