Chapter 20: Enchanting Cave
At this moment, Mu Mengyi stood swaying, her eyes occasionally clear and sometimes lost. Her delicate face was filled with unusual hues.
Her red lips parted slightly, and she felt weak all over, her breathing rapid, radiating an alluring beauty.
It was evident that the effects of the soul-devouring powder had taken hold.
Mu Mengyi stared at the dazed Tan Yun, and for some unknown reason, she mustered the strength to leap into his arms.
“Senior Sister Mu, wake up, wake up…” Tan Yun intended to remind Mu Mengyi to regain her senses, but then thought better of it and chose to remain silent. He understood that under the influence of the soul-devouring powder, Mu Mengyi had already lost her sanity.
Mu Mengyi clung tightly to Tan Yun, utterly irrational now.
“Hang in there, I’ll take you to detox.” After stretching, Tan Yun picked up Mu Mengyi and quickly entered a natural cave at the base of the mountain.
As soon as Tan Yun set her down, a faint fragrance wafted in, akin to orchids, and he felt soft, tender lips press against his.
Under the influence of the drug, Mu Mengyi wrapped her arms around Tan Yun’s neck and kissed him.
With raging emotions, Tan Yun struggled to maintain control and put Mu Mengyi down.
After her red lips left his, she muttered to herself, “Give me…”
“Rip!”
Tan Yun stretched out his hands and completely tore apart her red dress.
At that moment, a flicker of clarity appeared in Mu Mengyi’s beautiful eyes. Staring blankly at Tan Yun who was on top of her, she suddenly let out a soul-piercing scream, “Tan Shidi, please don’t treat me this way… I beg you not to… Even if I die, I don’t want you to save me like this!”
Amidst her screams, tears streamed down Mu Mengyi’s face, wetting the hair behind her ears.
Seeing the tears of rejection from Mu Mengyi, Tan Yun shook his head vigorously, took a deep breath, and quickly calmed himself, “Senior Sister Mu, I’m sorry, I was just impulsive…”
As he spoke, Mu Mengyi’s gaze grew distant again. The potent drug surged through her mind like a raging tide, mercilessly extinguishing the last flicker of her purity!
It felt as if there was a soul beast lurking in her mind, continuously howling, and only surrendering and indulging would bring relief!
However, with her strong will, she subconsciously resisted, refusing to let anyone tarnish her pure body.
Suddenly, she thought of something, and in a haze, she cried incoherently, “I can’t die… Wuwu… If I die, who will save my mother? Who will avenge my dead father?”
“During my escape, so many people were killed to protect me… After enduring hardships, I reached the emperor Huangfu Shengchao and joined the Huangfu Sacred Sect, just to survive and seek revenge… I can’t die… I can’t die!”
“I must live to take revenge… I must save my mother and kill all the enemies who betrayed my father, making them pay a heavy price!”
In her subconscious crying, Mu Mengyi abandoned her resistance to the drug, her mental defenses completely collapsed, and she wanted to loosen her clothes for Tan Yun.
“It seems her fate is fraught with trials and she has an unknown past.” Tan Yun felt a surge of pity and, with a snap of his fingers, a surge of spiritual power shot into Mu Mengyi’s body. Immediately, she could not move even a little.
Tan Yun shook his head and said firmly, “A gentleman loves beauty and takes it through proper means. If I truly want to have her, it should be when she is sober. If I take advantage of her plight, what difference is there from a beast?”
Tan Yun knew the dominance of the soul-devouring powder. At this moment, if he did not act to save Mu Mengyi, she would surely die.
Saving someone is like extinguishing a fire!
Tan Yun thought for a moment, recalling memories from his past life, and he untied the bow that was cinching her waist, removing the torn red dress.
At this moment, Mu Mengyi furrowed her brows tightly, as if enduring unbearable torment.
