“Bewitching Art?” Yang Kai frowned as he thought of a possibility. Only Bewitching Art could explain the current situation and his current mood. Otherwise, if a woman he had only met by chance had plotted against him and obviously had ill intentions, how could he have been so anxious?
Li Shiqing just smiled without saying anything.
Yang Kai stared at her fiercely, his eyes seemingly wanting to eat her alive, his murderous intent so thick it was almost tangible. If it was anyone else in this situation, they would be terrified, but Li Shiqing didn’t know what fear was. Even though Yang Kai was holding her neck and pressing her against the tree trunk, her smile didn’t falter, but her slightly wrinkled brow showed her pain.
“I’ll ask you one last time, what did you do to me!?” Yang Kai’s voice was bone-chilling, like a cold wind blowing from a snow mountain.
Seemingly sensing his impatience, Li Shiqing hesitated for a moment before pouting, “Heart Seal!”
“What is a Heart Seal?” Yang Kai frowned.
“The heart is bound together, beating together!” Li Shiqing smiled.
Yang Kai’s brow wrinkled even more as he asked, “You mean to say that after using this Heart Seal Secret Technique on me, I’ll fall in love with you?”
“Can’t you feel it yourself?” Li Shiqing looked at him mischievously and continued, “Moreover, this feeling is two-way. What you are feeling right now, I feel the same way.”
Yang Kai’s eyes went wide. What kind of bullshit Secret Technique was this? It was actually able to force two strangers together, causing both of them to suffer greatly. If it was a one-way method, it would have been fine, there were many other ways to use it, but Li Shiqing herself had also been restricted by this Secret Technique. No wonder this woman had been looking at him strangely from the very beginning.
“Are you happy?” Li Shiqing suddenly asked.
Yang Kai said with a straight face, “How am I happy?”
“The corner of your mouth just curled up.” Li Shiqing blinked her big eyes at him.
“Bullshit!” Yang Kai immediately denied.
Li Shiqing said angrily, “Can you not be so fierce? You’re making me uncomfortable.”
“Who are you complaining to?” Yang Kai squinted at her. When he first woke her up, Yang Kai had thought that this woman really had a cold and arrogant personality, but now that he had a closer look, he realized that he had been blind before. How could she still have any trace of arrogance?
Perhaps his words were a bit harsh, Li Shiqing glared at him, her beautiful eyes filled with resentment.
Yang Kai’s hand on her neck struggled a few times, but in the end, he couldn’t get past her. He hated himself so much that even though he wanted to kill her, he couldn’t bring himself to do so. Letting go of her neck, he said, “Put on your clothes and talk.” It wasn’t good to be naked all the time, even if he didn’t want to look at her, that white patch was still affecting his mind.
Li Shiqing touched her neck and coughed lightly before taking out her clothes from her Space Ring and pushing them towards Yang Kai.
“What are you doing!” Yang Kai said impatiently.
“Help me wear it!” Li Shiqing smiled at him.
“Scram!” Yang Kai sneered. He was now filled with anger, but this woman actually wanted him to help her put on clothes? Dream on!
“Are you going to help me wear it or not?” Li Shiqing stared at him stubbornly.
Yang Kai snorted, “So what if I don’t help you wear it?” If a cow didn’t drink water, how could it force its head down?
Li Shiqing looked at him seriously for a moment before suddenly tossing her clothes to the ground and flying off.
Yang Kai was stunned for a moment before he finally reacted. His figure flickered as his Space Laws fluctuated wildly, and after a few leaps, he appeared in front of Li Shiqing, gritting his teeth, “What are you doing?”
“Go back, aren’t they worried about me?” Li Shiqing replied naturally.
Yang Kai’s eyes nearly popped out of their sockets as he looked her up and down, “You’re going to run back like this?”
Li Shiqing smiled, “So what?”
“Are you crazy?” Yang Kai didn’t know what to say to her. Although most of the people there were women, and the only male was blind, running around naked like this was unacceptable! What’s more, Gao Zhan was blind, but he was an Emperor Realm cultivator. With just a sweep of his Divine Sense, he could see through everything. Thinking of this possibility, Yang Kai’s heart ached.
“Then help me wear it!” Li Shiqing looked at him proudly.
Yang Kai’s expression instantly became brilliant as he gnashed his teeth for a long time before cursing, “You’re a fucking lunatic!”
Saying so, he flashed over and grabbed Li Shiqing’s jade hand, pulling her towards the lake.
Li Shiqing allowed him to hold her hand, her face filled with tenderness, her smile like a general who had just won a war.
Returning to the lakeside, Yang Kai picked up the clothes she had thrown on the ground earlier and after fiddling with them for a while, he finally figured out how to wear a woman’s clothes—when has he ever help a woman wear her clothes? He was always only responsible for taking them off.
During the process of dressing, Yang Kai couldn’t help stumbling a little as he tried to suppress the throbbing in his heart. Li Shiqing even shamelessly said, “If you want to touch me, you can. I don’t mind.”
Yang Kai’s psychological defense collapsed in an instant. Since he had decided to go all out, he didn’t have any scruples and intentionally or unintentionally took a lot of advantage of Li Shiqing, causing her to gasp and became dizzy.
After a while, Yang Kai finally managed to put on her clothes. Feeling exhausted, he glanced over at her and asked, “Why did Flower Shadow Great Emperor accept a disciple like you? Isn’t she afraid of ruining her reputation?”
Li Shiqing smiled and beckoned to Yang Kai.
“What now?” Yang Kai asked cautiously.
“Come here.”
“Say it first, what do you want to do?” Yang Kai remained unmoved.
Li Shiqing stomped her foot and took the initiative to walk over, leaning forward and pressing her red lips towards Yang Kai’s mouth. Yang Kai stood there like a block of wood, waiting for her lips to separate before coldly asking, “What does this mean?”
Li Shiqing smiled lightly, “Nothing, I just wanted to kiss you.”
Yang Kai’s smile became even colder, “Do you think you can just act innocent? I want to see how you’ll explain this to Flower Shadow Great Emperor when you return.”
Li Shiqing said, “You don’t need to worry about that.”
Yang Kai asked curiously, “You’re not afraid of your master?”
Li Shiqing smiled at him, “Are you trying to trick me? Actually, if you want to know something, you can ask me directly, I’ll tell you.”
As if he would believe her! Yang Kai had many questions he wanted to ask her, such as why she had planted the Heart Seal Secret Technique on him, causing everyone to suffer, or whether she had intentionally lured him here.
But he knew that even if he asked, he wouldn’t be able to get an answer from Li Shiqing.
The disappearance of the Great Emperor’s children and disciples was still a mystery, but now that such a thing had happened, Yang Kai’s mind was in chaos.
Li Shiqing took out her veil and wore it while saying, “Actually, I came here especially for you.”
“For me?” Yang Kai frowned, “How can you be sure I’ll come?”
Li Shiqing took a deep breath, her full chest heaving up and down as she explained, “This place is an independent Secret Realm. If you want to open the entrance, you must be proficient in the Space Laws, and in the entire Star Boundary, there are only two people who are proficient in the Space Laws. One is you, the other is Li Wuyi. Li Wuyi is in the Eastern Region, and since this matter involves Lan Xun, the Star Soul Palace will definitely seek your help. Sure enough, they really did find you.”
Hearing this, Yang Kai frowned and said suspiciously, “Don’t tell me everything here was done by Flower Shadow Great Emperor. Lan Xun, Yao Lin, and the others were all captured by Flower Shadow Great Emperor.”
Li Shiqing smiled lightly, “Of course not, this matter has nothing to do with her.”
“Nothing to do with her?” Yang Kai raised his brow.
“It has nothing to do with her,” Li Shiqing slowly shook her head and gave an affirmative answer.
Yang Kai’s hair stood on end, “You’re not Li Shiqing, who are you?”
To Yang Kai’s surprise, Flower Shadow Great Emperor was only referred to as ‘her’, and Yang Kai didn’t feel any respect from her at all. If this Li Shiqing in front of him was really Li Shiqing, then as a disciple of Flower Shadow Great Emperor, it was impossible for her to have such a performance. At the very least, she should have some respect for her Master.
Combined with the Bewitching Art Heart Seal, Yang Kai was almost certain that this Li Shiqing in front of him was a fake! The Myriad Flowers Valley wouldn’t teach such a Bewitching Art.
Li Shiqing was stunned for a moment before she smiled and asked, “When did I reveal any flaws?” She had thought that Yang Kai was trying to trick her, but she hadn’t thought she would reveal anything.
“You really aren’t Li Shiqing,” Yang Kai’s heart was filled with a chill, feeling that things were becoming more complicated, “Where did the real Li Shiqing go? What did you do to her?”
Li Shiqing frowned as she stared at Yang Kai, “Isn’t having me around enough? Why care about other women!”
“Stop pestering me, answer me, what did you do to her?” On the way here, he had obtained some information that Flower Shadow Great Emperor's disciple Li Shiqing had indeed disappeared. Since this person in front of him was a fake, where was the real Li Shiqing?
Li Shiqing sighed helplessly, “She’s fine, she just went somewhere.”
“Where did she go?”
Li Shiqing smiled at him, “She went to a place I wanted to take you to. If you agree to come with me, I’ll tell you.”
“Good, I promise you,” Yang Kai agreed readily.
Li Shiqing giggled, “I’m not a three-year-old child, how could I be so easily deceived?”
Yang Kai suddenly stepped forward and pulled her into his arms, staring at her deeply, “Whether it’s because of that Secret Technique or not, right now I feel like I don’t want to separate from you. If you want to go somewhere, I will naturally go there.”
These words seemed to have a great impact on Li Shiqing, causing her body to soften as she leaned against Yang Kai, a happy and sweet smile appearing on her face as she whispered, “I believe you mean what you say, but there is also another reason. Unless you follow me to that place, I won’t tell you.”
Yang Kai immediately shook her off and threw her away.
