Chapter 237 Black-Hearted Lotus Junior Brother 5
Seeing Mo Chen like this, Xu Qiuqiu immediately felt sorry for him. She stopped pretending to be reserved and said, "No, I don't mind. Junior brother, don't overthink it."
She used the momentum to get up and lay down on his bed, which was soft and had a faint fragrance.
Mo Chen smiled and said, "Senior sister, get some rest. I'm going out for a bit."
Xu Qiuqiu turned to look at him, "Where are you going?"
"It's almost dinner time now, and I don't like taking fasting pills, so I'm going to the dining hall to find something to eat."
Mo Chen's face remained obedient. "Senior sister, would you like some? I can bring some back for you."
Xu Qiuqiu didn't stand on ceremony with him, "Okay."
Although she wasn't hungry, eating together might help them bond.
"Okay, Senior Sister, wait for me obediently."
After Mo Chen turned around, the smile on his face disappeared.
He calmed down and recalled the uncontrollable urge he had just felt, which had agitated him and made him want to kill...
When he returned to the room, the girl on the bed was already asleep, unusually well-behaved.
Mo Chen reached out and gently stroked her skin, rubbing the area around her golden core. His eyes grew darker and darker, and his fingernails grew longer.
Just as he was considering whether or not to make a move, he heard her softly murmur, "A-Fen..."
He stopped what he was doing, looked up at her, and saw the girl leaning against the soft couch, her black hair spread out like clouds. She looked beautiful as she slept, and her rosy lips moved slightly as she murmured his name.
No one had ever called his name so affectionately before…
He looked at her quietly, his sharp nails retracting.
After watching for an unknown amount of time, he stood up and walked out.
Xu Qiuqiu, lying on the bed, opened her eyes, her back soaked with cold sweat.
If 003 hadn't reminded her, she would have almost lost her life.
I never expected A-Feng in this world to be so ruthless! It's absolutely terrifying.
She now feels like she's sandwiched in a cookie; the male lead wants to kill her, and A-Fen wants to kill her too.
Is it possible for her to lose this golden elixir?
It seems she needs to cultivate properly and can't be a lazy bum anymore. She's even afraid to sleep now; if she falls asleep, she might lose her life.
She wanted to run away and cultivate properly, but then she thought that A-Fen had just left and she would leave right after him. Would she be discovered to be pretending to be asleep?
She could only continue to pretend to be asleep. After a long time, she finally got up at dawn and bumped into Mo Chen, who was carrying breakfast.
Mo Chen greeted her warmly, "Senior Sister, you're up so early."
Seeing his innocent look, Xu Qiuqiu felt a chill run down her spine. Last night, his cold fingernails almost pierced her skin, and she still remembered that feeling of being on the verge of death.
But she didn't dare to show any weakness, and her tone was a little unnatural, "I was too tired last night and accidentally fell asleep. Thank you for taking me in, junior brother. I'm going to cultivate now."
Mo Chen asked considerately, "Senior Sister, why don't you have some breakfast before you leave?"
Xu Qiuqiu shook her head, "No need, thank you, junior brother."
Who would dare eat this black-hearted lotus?!
Seeing Xu Qiuqiu leave as if her life depended on it, Mo Chen threw down all the breakfast in his hand, his eyes filled with a sinister and crazed look.
She was calling his name last night, but now she's leaving as if her life depends on it.
He'd give her one chance to escape, but if they met again, he wouldn't let her get away with it...
Back in the library, Xu Qiuqiu breathed a sigh of relief, found a soft cushion, and began to meditate and cultivate.
Entering meditation, her consciousness was a dark, desolate wasteland with no end in sight. Walking through tangled vines, she saw a glimmering light. Just as she was about to chase after it, she was interrupted by telepathic communication.
She opened her eyes and heard the sect's elders in charge instructing the inner disciples to gather in the main hall.
Orders could not be disobeyed, so she had no choice but to go to the main hall.
She found an inconspicuous spot to stand, but Mo Chen appeared out of nowhere and walked up to her, and Ruan Zhili followed suit.
Caught between the two, Xu Qiuqiu felt her head was spinning; this was terrifying.
One wanted to extract her golden core, and the other also wanted to extract her golden core, and they were standing on either side of her. She felt that her life was about to end...
Mo Yan feigned surprise, "Senior Sister, what a coincidence!"
Xu Qiuqiu chuckled awkwardly, "Yes, what a coincidence..."
"Junior sister, it's been a long time." Ruan Zhili's cool voice followed.
Ruan Zhili looked at Xu Qiuqiu. After so many days, had the chance to settle accounts with her finally come?
Noticing the fierce glint in Ruan Zhili's eyes, Xu Qiuqiu's legs went weak. "Senior brother, it's been a long time..."
She felt like crying. What kind of hell mode was this?
Mo Yan narrowed his eyes slightly, "Senior brother."
Ruan Zhili withdrew her gaze and looked at Mo Chen, feeling a surge of disgust, but outwardly she still greeted him.
Seeing that everyone had arrived, the elder in charge said, "You are all disciples carefully cultivated by the sect. Now that the annual Kunxu Secret Realm has opened, you must all participate."
With a wave of his hand, the elder deacon presented everyone with a jade pendant. He continued, "This secret realm is quite dangerous. If you encounter danger, crush the jade pendant in your hand to receive protection."
"But I hope you use it only out of necessity. This is to test your mental fortitude and to improve your combat experience. In addition, there are many treasures in the secret realm. If you find them, they are yours. Alright, do any of you disciples still have any doubts?"
The disciples below the stage shouted in unison: "No!"
Hearing the word "dangerous," Xu Qiuqiu felt even more troubled. She noticed that Ruan Zhili's gaze towards her had become even more ferocious. Once she entered the secret realm, she probably wouldn't be able to come out.
She glanced furtively at Mo Chen beside her; he seemed lost in thought and didn't notice her.
Since she was going to die anyway, she would rather die at A-Fen's hands. With that thought, she moved closer to Mo-Fen.
Her actions brought Mo Chen back to his senses. His eyes flickered slightly, and he asked with concern, "Senior Sister, what's wrong?"
"Junior brother, shall we form a team?" Xu Qiuqiu looked at him nervously.
No matter how you look at it, A-Fun is better off. If she were alone, she would definitely be hunted down by the male lead. Although A-Fun also had the idea of killing her yesterday, she didn't do it, which proves that she still has a chance to survive.
Thinking about it this way, staying by A-Fen's side is still the best way to survive.
Upon hearing her words, Mo Chen's eyes were mysterious yet filled with excitement. He had originally intended to let her go, but now she had delivered herself to his doorstep.
He obediently agreed, "Okay."
After saying that, he leaned down and whispered in her ear, his voice carrying a hint of seduction, "Then, senior sister, remember to hold my hand when we go inside, so we don't get separated..."
Seeing her ears turn red and her soft body tremble slightly, Mo Chen felt inexplicably pleased.
Watching the two interact intimately, Ruan Zhili felt inexplicably irritated. Shouldn't she be chasing after him?
He suddenly remembered that he had developed feelings for Han Ruoqiu a long time ago.
(This feels like a chaotic scene, it's just a pity that neither of them has realized their own feelings.)
