62: Yuyin's Reply
"Who!?"
Yuyin turned around warily, her body instinctively pulling down the hem of her shirt. The shirt was long enough. With Yuyin's sensitivity to Primordial Energy, she should have detected a cultivator approaching! Either the other party's cultivation was so high she couldn't detect them, or they were an ordinary person?
Standing opposite Yuyin was a short, fat middle-aged man with sloppy clothes and a creepy deanor.
Yuyin's eyesight was strong; she could see him clearly even at night. This man's gaze truly disgusted her, and he seed a bit familiar?
Yuyin rembered imdiately. Wasn't this the perverted middle-aged man from the rundown apartnt she used to live in who had tried to attack her from behind?
How could he be here? If the first ti was a coincidence, then this ti, in such a desolate place, it was definitely not a coincidence!
"Who are you, really? Why do you know my na?" Yuyin questioned him while circulating Primordial Energy within her, ready to strike at any mont. Although she was sowhat exhausted from her recent breakthrough, dealing with one ordinary man, let alone ten, would be effortless. But for so reason, this man gave her an inexplicable sense of fear.
The middle-aged man's gaze continuously swept over Yuyin's graceful body, barely concealed by the thin shirt under the moonlight, revealing a more unrestrained, perverted smile. "Xia Yuyin, is this how you treat an old friend?"
"I don't know you, and I don't want to know you. But I warn you, if you dare try the sa stunt as last ti, you won't get a third chance." Yuyin was exhausted, and this guy had been spying on her for who knows how long, wanting to take advantage of her vulnerability? A surge of anger rose in Yuyin's heart.
"Hehehehe..." The middle-aged man laughed, revealing a mouth full of yellow teeth in a spine-chilling manner. "Well said. Your aura is much stronger than a few months ago. Truly worthy of being Xia Yuyin, the woman favored by the Ghost King."
"Wha...t? Who... who are you, really?" This middle-aged man had actually ntioned the Ghost King. Yuyin was stunned. She clearly couldn't sense any Primordial Energy from him.
"Hehe, to be honest, I'm not entirely sure who this guy is either," the middle-aged man said strangely as he glanced down at himself.
"This guy?"
Boom!
Suddenly, from behind the middle-aged man, an aura of terrifying fear that made one's soul tremble erupted. A virtual image of a powerful Fierce Ghost, several ters tall and jet-black all over, erged from behind the man.
This Fierce Ghost's virtual image had wild, black mane fluttering in the night sky. A pair of blood-red eyes seed capable of imprisoning Yuyin's soul.
This was the very sa one who led the eight Fierce Ghosts that had carried the Sedan Chair to this world.
Before, Yuyin had had no Primordial Energy cultivation at all. But now that she did, she felt the horror of this Fierce Ghost's aura even more intensely. Even though he was now just a spirit body and shouldn't be able to cause her substantial harm, Yuyin felt as if she had no power to resist at all.
If a spirit body is this terrifying, what would happen if she t the real one? This kind of power that could bind one's soul and make it difficult to move was far stronger than the pressure she had felt from Zhang Henglong or Mr. Du!
"What do you want?" Although Yuyin was terrified inside, she didn't want to show weakness. She was unwilling to reveal her cowardice before this demonic shadow that had been threatening her.
"You needn't be afraid, Xia Yuyin. I will do nothing to you." The Fierce Ghost's deep voice made the surrounding trees sway as if in a mountain wind.
"I am not afraid!" Yuyin shouted stubbornly. "In my opinion, it's not that you don't want to, it's that you simply can't do anything to , can you?"
"Sharp eyes. As expected of the Ghost King's woman. To grow so much in just a few months. In three years... oh no, in... two and a half years, you will surely blossom into a more mature and captivating beauty. That will be the mont for the Ghost King to pluck this delicate, gorgeous flower of yours, which will then be fully ripe. That will be a grand day! Hahahahaha..." The Fierce Ghost's large mouth revealed chillingly long fangs, each as long as a child's forearm, as it let out a terrifying sneer.
"Who is this Ghost King? Where is he? When did I ever beco betrothed to this Ghost King?" Yuyin asked consecutively, mustering her courage.
However, the Fierce Ghost fell silent for a mont. Its blood-red eyes emitted a strange light as it said, "There is one more thing I ca here specifically to warn you about. Within these two-plus years, you must keep your body chaste. Otherwise, should you lose your virginity before the grand wedding with the Ghost King, the consequences will be sothing you cannot bear."
Hearing this, Yuyin couldn't help but feel a strong sense of sha and humiliation. Of course she wouldn't do anything, but this body was her own! Remain chaste, waiting for the Ghost King to co and pluck her?
Never!
Yuyin trembled, the Primordial Energy throughout her body overcoming her fear. It accelerated and rose within her... She gritted her teeth, her fists clenched so tightly that her delicate knuckles turned white.
"Protect that perfect, delicate body of yours. Everything about you will eventually belong to the Ghost King. When the ti cos, we will co for you right on schedule. You must bathe and cleanse yourself, put on your wedding gown, and wait obediently..."
"You said... wait obediently?" Yuyin repeated in a cold, trembling voice, her head lowered.
If it really ca to that, then what had been the point of her incredibly arduous cultivation these past six months? What had been the point of applying to the one-in-a-million Lingdu Source Martial Academy?
"Hmm?" The Fierce Ghost showed a hint of confusion.
"Thank you for the reminder... I, Xia Yuyin, will of course keep myself pure."
The Fierce Ghost nodded, sowhat satisfied... He was about to leave for a long ti, and before leaving, he had been looking for the right opportunity to remind Yuyin of this matter. Today was clearly the perfect ti. It seed this Yuyin had so self-awareness after all.
"But..." Yuyin said, her head lowered, her long hair covering her eyes.
The Fierce Ghost's eyes glowed red as it stared at Yuyin, slightly taken aback.
"Next ti you have sothing to say to , find a more normal appearance!"
Whoosh!
With a light leap, Yuyin sprang into the air. Her agile and graceful form flew several ters, carrying with her an aura like an ethereal fairy.
Thud!
Her long, beautiful leg heavily kicked the middle-aged man's head, sending him flying ten ters away in an instant, to fall on the mountainside in the distance.
The terrifying virtual image of the Fierce Ghost also dissipated.
Yuyin landed and took a few steps forward. Looking down at the middle-aged man who was unconscious in the grass, she said, "Go back and tell your Ghost King... in two and a half years, I will be waiting for him, in my peak condition."
In the dark mountain forest, dark clouds chased the moon. The wind made the tree-silhouettes sway, and a low, rough laugh was heard. "Hahahaha... to think you have such a temper. Truly worthy of being the only woman favored by the Ghost King... Since you understand, I will take my leave. Xia Yuyin... take care of yourself, and wait!"
The Fierce Ghost's voice gradually faded into the dark of the mountain forest.
Yuyin was left alone, standing on the mountainside. Gazing into the distance, her chest rose and fell. She lowered her head slightly, her determined eyes flickering in and out of sight behind her long hair, blown by the night wind.
"In two and a half years, I will be waiting for him. However, it will be either on a dueling ring, or on a battlefield!"
