Yan Luo, at this moment, seemed to have completely lost her senses, entangling herself with Chen Yuyang.
Her delicate body radiated a scorching heat, pressing tightly against the young man, while her hands began to fumble wildly across Chen Yuyang’s body.
“Yuyang… hold me, please… I feel so terrible…”
The girl’s lips approached the young man’s ear, her breath fragrant like orchid, whispering seductively, “Yuyang, don’t you want me?”
“Is there no place for me in your heart?”
Chen Yuyang took a deep breath inwardly, then sat down cross-legged on the spot, silently beginning to circulate the mind-calming technique to banish distracting thoughts.
First, Chen Yuyang carefully sensed everything around him.
This was to confirm that he was not trapped within a second-layer illusion.
That is to say, this Yan Luo before him, actively clinging to him and in heat, was absolutely real.
Although he didn’t know what she had actually seen within the illusion, or what kind of ‘setting’ she had accepted, that made her so proactive.
But this proactive reaction manifesting in reality was something he found hard to endure.
So, what should he do?
Forcibly wake her?
Chen Yuyang immediately dismissed this idea.
Forcibly interrupting could very likely damage her soul, leave lasting side effects, or even evolve into a heart demon.
Leave her be and do nothing?
How could he just leave her be?
Heaven knows what she might do to him, driven by the illusion.
While Chen Yuyang was still quickly thinking of countermeasures in his mind, Yan Luo suddenly exerted force, letting out a delicate shout as a not-insignificant wave of spiritual power burst from her body.
The girl roughly (forcefully) pushed the cross-legged Chen Yuyang down onto the ground.
“Yuyang, why won’t you look at me? Can’t you just give in to me?”
Yan Luo nimbly straddled Chen Yuyang’s waist, pressing her hands on his shoulders.
Though her gaze was hazy, her posture carried a certain domineering air: “I, this young miss, offer my entire Yan family as a dowry. Am I still not worthy of you?”
“Yuyang, I command you, become my man, right now!”
Yan Luo’s figure was slender, but her strength was astonishingly great.
Even Chen Yuyang, with his current strength, found it difficult to completely resist her without hurting her.
Chen Yuyang covertly deployed his spiritual power, forming a thin layer of spiritual power shield on his body’s surface, engaging in a limited defense.
However, at that moment, Chen Yuyang’s mind pricked up as he suddenly sensed a gaze.
A gaze that seemed to come from afar, yet was unmistakably clear.
Someone was spying on him?
Who?
Could it be… that someone had set him up?
This thought flashed sharply through Chen Yuyang’s mind, instantly putting him on high alert.
Come to think of it, this matter was indeed coincidentally suspicious.
He and Yan Luo had merely gone out for a casual stroll.
How could they have just happened to encounter this so-called ancient secret realm manifesting?
It couldn’t help but arouse suspicion.
Chen Yuyang’s gaze turned slightly sharp.
He tried his best to extend his spiritual sense outward, but its range was limited, and he couldn’t sense anything unusual.
Most importantly, he had to divert energy to deal with the girl coiling around (clinging to him) like an octopus.
Seeming to notice that Chen Yuyang wasn’t putting up much more resistance, or that his resistance wasn’t fierce enough, Yan Luo’s actions gradually became more initiative and bold.
Yan Luo, losing patience, began to tug at the young man’s clothes.
Although Chen Yuyang could barely withstand Yan Luo’s forceful advances, his clothes weren’t particularly sturdy and were easily torn by her fingers.
Rip.
The clothes on Chen Yuyang’s chest were also torn, exposing a larger area of skin.
Chen Yuyang was inwardly speechless.
This Yan Luo might look petite, but her strength was truly considerable.
However, he couldn’t afford to care about his clothes right now; avoiding being forced would be a success.
Secretly using spiritual power to deflect Yan Luo’s strength and prevent her further actions, Chen Yuyang continued to rapidly think of countermeasures.
Forcibly waking her was too risky; if something went wrong, he’d have to take responsibility for her.
Leaving her be, heaven knows what this girl might do driven by the illusion.
Even trying to subdue her would inevitably hurt her…
That being the case, there was only one last option.
Break the formation!
As long as he broke the illusion array on this sixth level, removing the source of the illusion, Yan Luo would naturally wake up.
But… if someone really was spying secretly.
Would him, at the Golden Core stage and only fifteen years old, forcefully breaking this seventh-grade illusion array be too astonishing and draw attention?
Especially since he didn’t know the observer’s (the spy’s) intentions.
Would exposing his trump card be somewhat…
Chen Yuyang hesitated.
The youth hesitated, but the girl lying on top of him did not.
Frustrated by being unable to take things further despite tearing his clothes, Yan Luo grew increasingly annoyed.
Directly, the girl lowered her head, pressing her lips towards the young man’s.
Chen Yuyang could clearly feel Yan Luo’s warm breath spraying onto his face.
That soft body pressed tightly against his, the air carrying a faint, delicate fragrance.
It was her scent.
And Yan Luo’s restless hands slid down along his open shirtfront, giving him goosebumps all over.
Chen Yuyang took a deep breath inwardly, suppressing the slight urge brought on by his physiological reactions.
It seemed he had to break the formation immediately; there was no other way.
Meanwhile, Yan Dangmo was still watching all of this.
When he saw Yan Luo pinning Chen Yuyang down and tearing at his clothes, Yan Dangmo got so excited he slapped his thigh: “That’s right! Just like that! Luo Luo, put in more effort! Once the rice is cooked, this kid won’t be able to run away.”
“Then, with your status as the Yan family’s eldest miss, and your grandfather backing you up, could he possibly deny it?”
Yan Dangmo stroked his beard, chortling: “Kid, don’t blame this old man for being base.”
“The cultivation world is naturally full of treachery and deceit. Blame yourself for being too outstanding, having such cultivation at such a young age.”
“And such potential. This old man just happens to be in urgent need of a grandson-in-law.”
“This old man had no choice. Who told you to be so impervious to reason? If it weren’t for this, I wouldn’t have needed to use such underhanded methods. I could have just let you two youngsters slowly fall in love and let things take their natural course.”
“But rest assured, kid. Marry into my Yan family, and this old man won’t treat you unfairly.”
“Resources, techniques, anything this old man can give, just ask!”
However, just as Yan Dangmo was eagerly anticipating Yan Luo’s next move, the pinned Chen Yuyang suddenly stirred.
With a flick of his wrist, three top-grade spirit stones appeared in Chen Yuyang’s hand.
He flicked his wrist again, and the three stones transformed into streaks of light, shooting towards their surroundings.
The moment the stones landed, the spiritual power circulating within the formation rippled with slight disturbances and fluctuations.
The smile on Yan Dangmo’s face froze.
His eyebrows jumped, and his eyes held a trace of shock and suspicion: “Hmm? What is this kid doing?”
Suddenly, Yan Dangmo thought of something, his brows knitting tighter: “Could it be…”
While Yan Dangmo was still reeling in shock and doubt, Chen Yuyang’s actions continued.
Without pausing, Chen Yuyang, sensing the fluctuations in spiritual power, gained more insight into the guess (inferred location) of the formation’s eye.
With another turn of his hand, seven or eight more spirit stones were thrown out.
These stones weren’t scattered randomly, but were precisely placed at various key nodes within this illusion array according to a specific distribution.
Yan Dangmo noticed that the newly landed stones emitted their own spiritual power, subtly connecting with each other, spontaneously forming a small-scale formation inside the illusion array.
What shocked Yan Dangmo even more was that the spiritual power vibration emitted by this small formation was actually circulating in a direction completely opposite to the flow of spiritual power within the illusion array.
“Break a formation with another formation?!”
Yan Dangmo couldn’t help but exclaim in a low voice.
He asked himself that this kid had already brought him enough surprises, but he still couldn’t help but reveal a stunned expression at this moment.
Breaking a formation with another formation first requires an extremely profound understanding of the formation to be solve (broken), insight into its eye, nodes, spiritual power flow, and all its operational rules.
Only then can one specific (specifically) arrange a new formation that suppress (counters) the opponent’s formation.
The level of formation mastery this requires is no lower than the skill needed to set up this illusion array in the first place.
Yan Dangmo asked himself that even if he were trapped inside the array, at best he could only break it through brute force.
To break a formation with another formation was completely impossible!
“How could this kid…”
Yan Dangmo stared intently at Chen Yuyang, another storm of shock rising in his heart.
This kid’s formation mastery had actually reached such a level?
A seventh-grade formation, this was a seventh-grade formation!
Was there no justice?
Or did this kid have some old grandpa in a ring guiding him?
Regardless.
This scene further convinced Yan Dangmo.
He absolutely had to get this kid into the Yan family!
Inside the array, as the reversing formation Chen Yuyang had set up began to operate, violent spiritual power fluctuations started to appear within the illusion array.
The array patterns of the illusion itself also began flickering, dimming and brightening intermittently.
It was under these circumstances that Yan Luo’s previously unrestrained, even rough, actions began to lagging (slow down).
A trace of clarity started to flicker in her hazy eyes.
Yan Luo looked blankly at Chen Yuyang pinned beneath her, at his clothes she had torn, at the red marks she had scratched onto his body, at the wet traces she had kissed onto him.
The girl suddenly scrambled off Chen Yuyang, stumbling back a few steps in panic, hugging her chest, her eyes wide, stammering, “I… just now I…”
Chen Yuyang ignored her, quickly turning over and standing up, slightly straightening his clothes, then threw out a few more spirit stones.
Although the array could no longer trap Yan Luo, it was already half-broken; why would he stop midway?
On the other hand.
Chen Yuyang had fire in his heart.
Lustful fire, and anger!
Whoever arranged all this.
Regardless of whether there was malicious intent or not, he did not find it pleasant.
Since he couldn’t find the person, he would destroy their formation, ruin everything they had arranged here, and make them pay some price.
Chen Yuyang thought to himself as he continued to take out several more top-grade spirit stones and distribute them.
At the same time, his hands formed seals, and his own spiritual power began to circulate in a particular way.
After a moment, Chen Yuyang suddenly pointed his sword fingers towards one side of the formation and murmured in a low voice, “Break for me!”
As his words fell, the small reversing formation he had set up began to operate at high speed.
Almost all the spirit stones dimmed simultaneously, but following that (following that) formed a thick, violent (violent and fierce) current of spiritual power.
With Chen Yuyang’s pointing finger, this current of spiritual power began to dash impact (surge and impact) towards the corresponding direction.
It impacted the very foundation of this illusion array.
Boom—
Accompanied by a loud noise, the entire sixth level began to shake, and the array patterns and runes on the surrounding walls also cracked under this violent impact.
Yan Dangmo was even more dumbfounded.
This kid had actually broken the formation!
Completing all this, Chen Yuyang finally let out a long breath and turned to look at Yan Luo beside him.
At this moment, Yan Luo’s eyes had fully restore clarity.
Looking at Chen Yuyang, her pretty face was bright red.
She now realized what had just happened, and it now filled her with shame and despair.
Was this Grandpa’s goal?
Grandpa knew she would lose control at this level… so…
Biting her lower lip, after a long while, the girl mustered her courage, stepped forward, and looked solemnly at the young man: “I’m… I’m sorry… Yuyang… I, I will take responsibility for you!”
