Chapter 28: She Really Wants to Sleep With Me!
Lin Mo thought for a moment and decided to follow the maid to the third floor.
Lin Mo naturally didn’t believe in something for nothing.
With the Jiangyue Building Master’s cultivation level and appearance, was she really going to give herself to someone just because of their talent?
After all, this was a world of cultivation, not some ancient romance novel.
In this world, strength was paramount, and talent wasn’t of much use.
Although everything about this situation seemed suspicious, Lin Mo didn’t dare to just let it go.
He was also afraid. Nangong Xu, who was just now a Rank 7 Golden Core genius, couldn’t move in the face of the woman’s pressure.
With such strength, could he escape?
“Young Master Lin, the proprietor is inside. You can go in now.” The maid led Lin Mo to the door of the innermost room on the third floor and then retreated.
Lin Mo swallowed, then gathered his courage and knocked on the door.
“Come in!” A calm voice came from inside the room.
Lin Mo pushed the door open and entered. A strange fragrance filled the room.
He had never smelled this fragrance before, but he didn’t dislike it.
Walking further in, his gaze fell on the smoking incense burner on the red wooden table.
“That’s incense made from spirit herbs from the depths of the Great Continent Mountain Range. How does it feel?”
“Mmm, the smell is very good.”
As he turned, Lin Mo froze.
Yan Ruyu, who had somehow changed into a thin, sheer gauze dress, was lying on her side on the bed, letting the collar of her dress fall. Her fair, smooth shoulders, delicate collarbones, the deep cleavage, and her long, fair legs…
Lin Mo was sure that if those legs shifted even a little bit more, he would be able to see everything inside clearly.
At this moment, he truly didn’t know what to do.
Turning away would be disrespectful to himself, but continuing to look without turning away would be disrespectful to her.
“You’ve already seen it, so don’t tell me you have an eye condition later.” Seeing Lin Mo’s troubled expression, Yan Ruyu was quite pleased.
Lin Mo truly couldn’t understand her attitude.
He simply sat on a chair by the wooden table, unwilling to beat around the bush, and directly asked her intentions: “Miss, no, Senior, what exactly do you want?”
“What do I want? I don’t quite understand what you mean.”
“Also, my name is Yan Ruyu. Calling you ‘Senior’ for what’s about to happen is too distant.”
What’s about to happen…
Under these circumstances, Lin Mo couldn’t help but imagine some amorous scenes.
“Wait, Senior…”
“Hmm?”
Gave a glare from Yan Ruyu’s beautiful eyes, Lin Mo quickly corrected himself: “Miss Yan, are you really going to spend the night with me?”
“What, you’re unwilling? Although I’m over a hundred years old, it’s not like I’m forcing you.”
Over a hundred years old?
Lin Mo wasn’t particularly surprised by this.
After all, cultivators had long lifespans.
Especially powerful cultivators who could be in seclusion for decades or even a century.
He didn’t care about Yan Ruyu’s age.
He just couldn’t understand why Yan Ruyu would do this.
“It’s not that I’m unwilling, I just can’t understand,” Lin Mo said truthfully.
“Then do you think I might be a Demonic Cultivator who cultivates by draining yang energy?” Yan Ruyu joked.
“I can believe you are a Demonic Cultivator, but I don’t believe you are one who cultivates by draining yang energy,” Lin Mo said with certainty.
He wasn’t stupid. If Yan Ruyu was truly a Demonic Cultivator who cultivated by draining yang energy, why wouldn’t she choose Nangong Xu, who had better cultivation, and give a Foundation cultivator like him special treatment?
That would be unnecessary!
“Young Master Lin is indeed clever!” Yan Ruyu stood up, walked to Lin Mo’s side, and poured him a cup of Spirit Tea. “But you’ve misunderstood something.”
“What do you mean, Miss?” Lin Mo took the Spirit Tea and drank it. He had already asked the Liuli Sword, and the tea was not poisoned.
He also didn’t believe Yan Ruyu would poison him. If she wanted him dead, it would be as simple as waving her hand; there would be no need for such a troublesome method.
Yan Ruyu suddenly leaned down and whispered into Lin Mo’s ear, her breath like orchid fragrance: “I truly want to sleep with you.”
Lin Mo: “…” This, something good actually happened?
Could it be that she was using him as a shield or something?
After all, with Yan Ruyu’s beauty, there were definitely many powerful figures in the cultivation world who coveted her.
If he really slept with her, he might be killed by Yan Ruyu’s admirers tomorrow. That would be a complete disintegration of body and soul.
Lin Mo made up his mind and decided to tell the truth: “Miss Yan, actually, I’ve come to participate in the Talents Assembly just to get the title of ‘talented scholar.’ This is to lure out the strange occurrences that have been happening in Daliang City recently. After dealing with them, I need to lead my Junior Sisters back to the Sect to report.”
“Of those four Junior Sisters, one has a brain condition and needs me to supervise her at all times to prevent her from having an episode. Another has a stomach condition and needs me to feed her regularly. As for the other two, one has a mental disorder and has inappropriate thoughts about her sister. I need to guide them so they don’t go astray. They can’t do without me!”
As he spoke, Lin Mo looked like a doting father.
“If Young Master Lin wishes to leave, I won’t keep you by force.” Yan Ruyu said, pointing to the door: “As long as you wish to, you can leave anytime.”
Receiving her promise, Lin Mo quickly got up and prepared to leave.
In this room, he had to constantly watch Yan Ruyu’s expression.
He didn’t like the feeling of not being in control of his own life.
“Miss Yan, then we shall part ways here.” Lin Mo turned to leave, but after only a few steps, he began to feel something was wrong.
An inexplicable heat began to spread throughout his body, and he felt completely dizzy.
Seeing Lin Mo like this, Yan Ruyu chuckled: “Young Master Lin, why aren’t you leaving?”
“The door is right there, and as long as you ‘wish’ to, you can leave!”
Yan Ruyu’s exposed fair skin seemed like an adrenaline shot, hitting Lin Mo hard, making his entire body feel like it was about to ignite.
At this moment, Lin Mo finally realized he had been poisoned.
He questioned the Liuli Sword: “Didn’t you say the Spirit Tea was not poisoned?”
The Liuli Sword replied: “The Spirit Tea is indeed not poisoned, and the incense is also fine. However, the combination of the two is problematic.”
“Then why didn’t you say so earlier!” Lin Mo thought speechlessly.
“You didn’t ask either!” the Liuli Sword replied obediently.
Lin Mo’s head grew increasingly muddled. He finally understood Yan Ruyu’s words: “as long as you ‘wish’ to leave.”
But if he didn’t leave now, he would definitely fall into this woman’s hands.
His reason told him this, but his desires made him unable to take a step away.
“Young Master Lin, are you unwilling to leave now?” Yan Ruyu teased.
Lin Mo didn’t reply. He was concentrating his efforts to let reason overcome desire.
“Young Master Lin is truly patient!” Seeing that Lin Mo hadn’t moved for a long time, Yan Ruyu was amazed by his willpower.
She knew how potent the medicine was; even an eunuch would lose control.
Therefore, Yan Ruyu decided to put in more effort.
As Lin Mo struggled with his desires, he felt someone embrace him from behind.
The soft, cold touch was practically an accelerant for his desires.
He cursed the other party inwardly for being unscrupulous, and his last shred of reason vanished.
