Chapter 230: 88 Fox Charm Destiny

He glanced over and nodded silently.

“If you had shown this appearance earlier and charmed some geniuses, it shouldn’t have been difficult, right…”

Her appearance and figure, although not comparable to Luo Ruoxin, were definitely one in ten thousand. Mo Yanxue, Yu Xiaoyu, and the others were clearly a notch below. Plus, with the Fox Charm Destiny, not to mention ordinary people, even some powerful experts would probably find it hard to resist.

Not to mention others, King Ping Yuan, Han Qianye, would definitely be unable to resist.

To incite love and war among the feudal lords, to rage against the crown for a beauty, the Fox Charm Destiny might not be great in combat strength, but once put to good use, its effect was tremendous.

“Beauty is but a skeleton in the end. The true power of the Fox Charm Destiny lies in its subtlety, in seducing exceptional talents with an ordinary appearance to achieve greatness. It is said that the ruler of Qingqiu back in the day wasn’t beautiful, but she could charm all beings. That has always been my goal…”

Fu Yingying revealed a look of admiration.

“Fine, I can agree to your request. However, you can also continue to look for someone else. If you can find someone with a talent better than mine before the family test, it wouldn’t be a problem to ask for his help…”

Zhang Xuan said.

“Are you really sure you want me to bring someone else to the test?” Hearing him say this, Fu Yingying’s eyes showed a look of grievance. In an instant, the woman who had galloped through Han Yuan City for many years had gone from being resolute to extremely vulnerable, inducing a strong desire to protect her.

Fox Charm Destiny deployed!

Her current appearance, combined with the seductive Destiny, made it unbearable for the heart, even Min Jiangtao, who was standing by, had his eyes glued to her, feeling a special impulse.

“You’re trying to charm me?”

Understanding her intentions, Zhang Xuan shook his head, about to dismiss the idea of helping her, when suddenly he felt streaks of Heavenly Mandate Vitality being torn from the Phantasm Space, surging towards her.

Although the amount was less than directly absorbing from the Destiny Plate, it still greatly aided him.

With a thought, the Heavenly Mandate Vitality flowing towards her was quietly absorbed into the Library of Heaven’s Path, forming book after book.

Zhang Xuan was excited.

In the absence of a Destiny Plate, this kind of hijacking and absorbing Yuan Power, although not much, was still substantial—flies might be small, but they are still meat, useful at critical moments.

“What if he really develops feelings for me and wants to be with me, won’t you feel uncomfortable?”

Seeing that Zhang Xuan in front of her was not as resistant as before, Fu Yingying’s eyes lit up, and she continued to look at him sorrowfully.

“I won’t feel uncomfortable…” Zhang Xuan shook his head.

With his words, the Heavenly Mandate Vitality in the air immediately stopped, as if it had been cut off, with no trace left.

If the Fox Charm Destiny successfully bewitches the opponent, the Destiny would also advance, and now that it was useless to him, the reward of Yuan Power naturally came to a halt.

Zhang Xuan frowned and tentatively continued, “Then… who would be uncomfortable?”

Boom!

In the blink of an eye, the Heavenly Mandate Vitality doubled from before, and inside the Library of Heaven’s Path, strands of Heavenly Mandate Vitality were moved in, with books flying chaotically.

“Really?”

She was stunned to hear him say this, then filled with excitement.

The Fox Charm Destiny could advance one way by doing what she suggested; the more talented the charmed person, the bigger the benefit. Another way was if the person being charmed had an unwavering willpower. Once successful, the effect would be even better.

As a Black Market Master, she had seen many so-called “geniuses,” who all became obedient once she used her Fox Charm talent. Only this man maintained his independence, totally unaffected.

She then realized he was no ordinary person and possibly an imposter.

Lately, upon learning that this Zhang Xuan was only in his twenties yet defeated Han Qianye, who was clad in Han Ming Armor with a single slash, her excitement grew further.

With his unwavering resolve and exceptional talent… he was definitely the perfect Furnace for her practice of the Fox Charm Destiny.

Once successful, the benefits were self-evident.

Thus, she had come looking for cooperation, hoping he would agree. Even if unsuccessful, as long as she returned to her clan with him, she could still make a sensation.

She hadn’t been hopeful, but after she revealed her true appearance, she saw direct effects.

Men…

Full of joy, she looked over with eyes like silk threads, “I trust you so much, you better not go back on your word~~”

Her voice was soft and alluring, offering an indescribable comfort to the ears.

After exerting her strength, Fu Yingying introspectively checked her stamina to see if there was progress, only to discover that not a single stream of Heavenly Mandate Vitality had entered her body. It was as if her charm had been fruitlessly deployed.

Puzzled, she couldn’t help but look up, to see the excited “Ling Buyang” gazing over, his head nodding vigorously, “Of course! You’re definitely a woman of your word.”

Seeing his reaction, Fu Yingying knew for sure she had charmed him, so she heaved a sigh of relief. She tried to calm and focus again, but still, she couldn’t feel any Yuan Power coming her way.

In an instant, the lady seemed to glitch, as if she had thrown out bait worth tens of thousands for fishing, only to come up with… nothing at all!

“Miss Fu, just tell me what you need me to do. I’m willing to do anything for you, absolutely anything…”

Just then, Min Jiangtao, who was at the side, cried out. Veins bulged on his forehead, and his face was filled with excitement.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Although Fu Yingying’s Fox Charm Destiny wasn’t targeted at him, the charm that had accidentally spilled out was already too much for him to handle.

“That’s not right! Even if this Zhang Xuan wasn’t charmed, just based on Min Jiangtao’s appearance, there should be some Heavenly Mandate Vitality as a reward. How come there’s nothing?”

Seeing the other party looking like this, and after absorbing again, she found there was still nothing, Fu Yingying was completely baffled.

Confused and unsure of what was going on, Zhang Xuan, who was not too far away, spoke as well, “Miss Fu, if you have any instructions, just tell me. I can do anything…”

Seeing his oath-like assurance, Fu Yingying looked once more at the Fox Charm Destiny she had comprehended; still, there was no enhancement whatsoever.

The other person’s talent and willpower were the strongest she had seen so far. Logically, once the charm was successful, they should have made great progress, and there was even the possibility of elevating her comprehension of the Fox Charm Destiny to the Heart of Tranquil Water, but now… it was as if she was completely shackled in place, with not a bit of progress.

Although she couldn’t grasp what was happening, Fu Yingying still nodded her head, her body gently turning to reveal a perfect curve. She bit her lip, showing a pitiful expression: “If you truly are willing to do anything for me, you’d help me even without the Destiny Plate, right?”

She thought he would agree immediately, but then she heard a voice say, “That’s unacceptable!”

“???”

Fu Yingying froze, once again looking at “Ling Buyang” before her, only to see his eyes clear as water, devoid of any infatuation.

“You, you’ve already been charmed by me, haven’t you?” Her eyes wide, Fu Yingying was filled with disbelief.

Normally, a person who had been charmed should agree to any request without question, but now the refusal was so absolute…

“Yes, I have been charmed by you, but thinking you can freeload without paying, that’s out of the question…”

Zhang Xuan looked over earnestly.

“…”

Fu Yingying’s eyelids twitched.

Is this being charmed? Are you playing with me?!

Who, when charmed, speaks so clearly? Who still bargains so earnestly?

No wonder there was no Heavenly Mandate Vitality reward. You’re toying with me!

Her heart, which had been somewhat excited just a moment ago, plummeted in the blink of an eye.

Disheartened, yet a sense of relief washed over her, accompanied by a lingering unwillingness.

However, being difficult to charm could also be a good thing because such a person, once successfully charmed, would bring even greater benefits. It was impossible to succeed now, but once back at the clan, with the power of the ancestors, it wouldn’t be up to him anymore.

With this thought, breathing a sigh of relief, Fu Yingying cracked a small smile: “Since Sir Zhang has agreed, then let’s settle it at that. I will come to find you personally when we get to Zouyi City…”

After speaking, she no longer lingered and turned to walk outside. She had just left the room when a painting scroll appeared before her. The next moment, a light enveloped her from head to toe, restoring her to her previous appearance.

“What a pity…”

Seeing he could no longer absorb Heavenly Mandate Vitality, Zhang Xuan shook his head with a hint of disappointment, looking at Min Jiangtao before him: “Do you want to return to Zouyi City?”

“Yes!”

Having recovered from his infatuation, Min Jiangtao hastily bowed with his fists clasped.

“I’m coming with you!”

After speaking, too lazy to keep up the pretense, he shook lightly, reverting back to his original appearance: “You handle the arrangements with the Black Market Master. I don’t want my issues to leak out!”

“Yes!” Min Jiangtao nodded. “I will persuade the teacher to stay calm.”

“Get ready, we’ll set off this afternoon…” After estimating the time, Zhang Xuan instructed.

“Yes!” Min Jiangtao exited.

After he left, Zhang Xuan walked into the backyard.

Luo Ruoxin, Luo Qiqi, Liu Yang, Yuan Tao, and the others were still training. Seeing him arrive, they all stood up.

Because they had opened up their Source Pools and activated the Furnace both to the Top Level, in just a few short days, Luo Ruoxin, the strongest among them in cultivation, had already reached the Jade Bone Realm, not far from breaking through.

As for the others, they had all achieved the Six Layers of Viscera of the Source Pool, each with an extraordinary aura.

“Practice in the Suspended Realm. I will alter the time for you, which should also speed up your training!”

Zhang Xuan said.

In both the Suspended Realm and the New World, he could change the size of the space and the scale of time with just a thought.

In the Source World, with a one-to-one time ratio, they all made such progress. If they entered the Suspended Realm and the time was changed to ten-to-one, or even twenty-to-one, or a hundred-to-one, wouldn’t their progress be even faster?

Previously in the Suspended Realm, due to the scarcity of the Heavenly Mandate Vitality, it wasn’t very stable to allow these people to absorb it simultaneously, which might have been unbearable. Now, with five million Heavenly Mandate Vitality flowing in, although it wasn’t as stable as the Source World, allowing these few to change the time and practice was no longer an issue.

“That would be great…” Luo Ruoxin immediately nodded.

As his wife, she naturally wanted to be able to help her husband, but with her current low level of cultivation, she couldn’t do much, which made her anxious.

If there was a way to quickly improve, of course, it was the best possible outcome.

“I’m going too!” Luo Qiqi, seeming determined, nodded as well.
