Senior sister, I'm going to control you.

Chapter 66 Ma Rou's Aggressive Tactics Late at Night [Read More]

Li Tianran got up alertly, walked to the door, and looked out through the peephole.

Zhao Ling stood outside the door, her tall and slender figure somewhat blurred in the gray fog.

Why is she here so late?

He hesitated for a moment.

It's difficult for someone to go down the mountain alone, and they're also more likely to be targeted.

If I'm with Zhao Ling, even if something goes wrong, I'll have someone to testify.

With Zhao Ling around, Ma Rou would have to think twice before taking action.

Unless she's not afraid of being exposed.

Li Tianran glanced at the gray mist behind her again, confirming that there was no one there and no spiritual energy fluctuations.

He then slowly opened the stone door.

Zhao Ling stood at the door, her complexion slightly better than before.

Li Tianran noticed her expressionless face...

wrong!

has a problem!

"Escape..." Zhao Ling was about to speak.

Li Tianran unleashed his spiritual power and retreated rapidly.

Because he saw a dark green figure suddenly emerge from the gray mist behind Zhao Ling!

Extremely fast!

At that moment, Zhao Ling's fingers moved, making a motion to grab the short knife at her waist.

Before she could react, Ma Rou slapped Zhao Ling on the back of the neck.

Zhao Ling groaned and collapsed, only to be caught by Ma Rou.

Before she was knocked unconscious, she glanced at Li Tianran with a look of helplessness and apology.

Ma Rou tucked Zhao Ling under her arm and turned to look at Li Tianran.

A faint, ambiguous smile played on his lips.

Li Tianran was very familiar with that expression.

Last time in the cave, she deliberately threw her storage bag on the ground for him to pick up, and intentionally exposed her thighs.

When this woman smiles, nothing good ever comes of it!

Ma Rou wasn't holding an abacus, but Li Tianran felt she could pull one out of her sleeve at any moment.

"You think I can't find you just because you don't reply to my messages?"

She took a step forward, and the silk shell on her ankle bumped softly.

Ma Rou's tone turned colder, carrying a sense of intimidation:

"Is the escape talisman effective? Are your robes comfortable to wear? You took my things and now you want to play dead. Don't you even consider who gave you these things?"

"What I can give you, I can also take back. Even your life is something I'm temporarily lending you."

After saying that, she took another step forward.

"If you had answered me honestly, we could have sat down and talked properly, but you just wouldn't."

"If you don't reply, I'll take that as you're planning to renege on your debt. Have you even consulted this scheme before trying to renege on my debt?"

She raised her hand and shook the purple jade abacus in her hand.

With a clattering sound, a tremendous surge of spiritual energy erupted from the bead.

Li Tianran was jolted back half a step, his back hitting the door frame.

Can't escape!

Ma Rou is in the mid-Foundation Establishment stage. If she catches him, even if he breaks through to the Foundation Establishment stage on the spot, it will be in vain!

He glanced at Zhao Ling, who was being held under her arm; she had already fainted.

He turned to look at Ma Rou again, and a slight twitch appeared at the corner of his mouth.

"Uncle Ma, what are you saying?"

"How could this disciple dare to renege on your debt? The escape talisman is still in my sleeve, and the robe is still on my body; nothing is missing."

"I did not reply to your message because I wanted to wait until you finished your seclusion before reporting to you in person."

"If we activate the array now, neither of us will be able to withstand a single sweep of Master's divine sense."

"report?"

Ma Rou tilted her head and looked at him: "You call not replying to a message a report?"

"This disciple is not good with words and is afraid that I will not be able to explain clearly in the message."

"You're bad with words?" She laughed, her shoulders twitching slightly. "Where were you when you were haggling with me last time?"

"That was because my martial uncle...forced me to do it."

"Now it's me who's forcing you."

Ma Rou took another half step forward.

Li Tianran's entire back was pressed against the door frame, with nowhere left to retreat.

The woman with alluring eyes was shorter than him, yet they stood very close.

He was so close that he could see the white flesh undulating beneath her neckline, squeezed deep by her dark green strapless bra, swaying gently with her breath.

The sandalwood scent of the purple jade abacus and her fragrance filled his nostrils.

"I'll ask you one more time... Has the array been activated yet?!"

"I did put it on, but I didn't dare activate it."

Why?

"Master's puppet is still in the debugging period, and its divine sense is all in the core. Activating it now is tantamount to telling her that the puppet has been tampered with."

Ma Rou stared at him for a couple of moments, then suddenly reached out and pinched his chin, forcing him to raise his head.

Her fingers were warm, and her pressure was just right.

"I have been waiting for several days. Nobody knows when Han Li will emerge from seclusion."

She said she'd be in seclusion for three days, but what if she comes out in the middle of the night? You won't have activated it by then, and all the talismans you put on will be for nothing!

In addition, those things I gave you—"

As she spoke, Ma Rou reached out with her other hand and pressed it against his chest. Even through the two layers of fabric—the grey robe and the mage's robe—her palm was still burning hot: "Tonight, you'll have to pay me back, with interest."

"Hiss..." Li Tianran looked down at the hand she was pressing on his chest, then looked up at her.

The position was too close; close enough that he could see the fine lines at the corners of her eyes, close enough that her breath brushed against his chin, close enough that the snow-white expanse of her chest was almost pressed against his chest.

His gaze involuntarily slid down an inch, where the cleavage was deeper than when she wore a dark red robe, almost overflowing from the dark green strapless top.

Dingjue!

The Ma Rouling beaded anklet made a soft tapping sound on her ankle.

"Uncle Ma."

Li Tianran's voice was a little dry: "If you push any further forward, I won't be able to breathe."

Ma Rou paused for a moment, then looked down at her position, which was almost pressed against his chest.

She didn't back out!

Instead, she slid the hand that was pressing on his chest down, along the hem of his gray robe to his waist, hooked her fingers around his belt, and pulled him half an inch closer to her.

Her tone was icy: "Then tell me, when will it be activated?"

"The day before Master emerged from seclusion, the puppet's core had already stabilized. She wouldn't have noticed anything amiss when the array was activated. By the time she emerged, control would already be yours."

"Hehe, you've really thought of everything for me."

"On behalf of my master, could you please release your grip?"

"cannot."

Her fingers tightened around his waist: "If I let go and you run away, I'll have to catch you again."

Li Tianran looked down at her, his Adam's apple bobbing.

This posture is so damn wrong.

He was pressed against the door frame by Ma Rou, one hand pinching his chin and the other hooking his belt. The snow-white expanse of her chest was so dazzling that he didn't know where to look.

The string of spirit shells on her ankle was still gently tapping, each tap seeming to remind him.

This woman is a mid-Foundation Establishment stage evil cultivator; crushing her is as easy as crushing an ant.

"Uncle Ma."

His throat was terribly dry: "If you're going to kill me or torture me, just say so, but could you please not stand so close?"

"You dislike me?"

Ma Rou's fingers moved away from his waist, slowly sliding down his belt to his hip bone: "What are you feeling guilty about?"

Her fingertips rested on his hip bone and pressed down gently.

Li Tianran's breathing became heavier.

Damn it, is this woman doing this on purpose, or has she really come to her senses?!

Li Tianran cursed inwardly.

Ma Rou had already raised her hand, and spiritual energy surged up.

His heart skipped a beat, and he immediately reached out to touch the Void Escaping Talisman, his fingertips just touching the edge of the talisman in his sleeve.

The sweet fragrance had already filled his nostrils, and his vision went black.

Before losing consciousness, Li Tianran had only one thought left in his mind.

The escape talisman is still in my sleeve! The robe is still on my body!

As long as I remain conscious for even a moment, I can activate the escape talisman and escape...

Fragrance and darkness completely overwhelmed him.
