Chapter 282: Chapter 282: Mysterious Temple (2)

At those words filled with despair from Shui Ruo,

Yue Lan slowly opened her golden eye and looked at the pessimistic woman from the Waterflow Sect.

Despite her beautiful and graceful face, Shui Ruo had been sprawled hazardly on the floor for quite a while now.

But Yue Lan didn’t really blame her.

From what the woman herself had said, Shui Ruo had been unlucky enough to become trapped inside this strange temple since the very beginning of the secret realm.

So judging by the time flow of the realm, it had probably been around a month now that this woman had been stuck alone in this dark place.

…Until they arrived.

Remembering why they had ended up here as well, Yue Lan turned to look at the perpetrator, Liu Yanyue, with a deadpan expression.

The other woman still pretended as if nothing significant had happened.

To be honest, Yue Lan hadn’t even wanted to come here in the first place.

She had wanted to find Li Feng instead, since she knew he was a formation master…. someone far more suited for exploring an unknown ancient place like this.

But under Liu Yanyue’s insistence, who confidently claimed she knew a thing or two about formations, Yue Lan had reluctantly guided her here.

And the moment the two of them stepped inside the temple, they were suddenly teleported to this place, where they finally found Shui Ruo huddled in the corner.

Yue Lan still remembered the woman’s relieved expression when she saw them.

Shui Ruo had even broken down in tears after meeting other people inside this lonely space.

But it seemed the long isolation had taken a toll on her mind…

Because from time to time, Shui Ruo would start mumbling despairing words to herself.

Just then, Liu Yanyue suddenly spoke up.

“Don’t look at me like that, junior sister. It wasn’t my intention to get us trapped in here.”

Yue Lan didn’t seem surprised that Liu Yanyue knew she had been looking at her.

Liu Yanyue’s senses were extremely sharp…. almost like having another eye altogether despite her blindness.

“…I didn’t blame you.”

“Oh? But why do I sense a hint of displeasure in your voice?”

Liu Yanyue smiled faintly, not seeming to mind at all as she turned her head and seemingly looked around.

“This area is truly strange. After searching so thoroughly, there are still no entrances or exits… What exactly is the purpose of bringing us here?”

At her words, Yue Lan also fell silent, as she didn’t have an answer.

They had already tried everything.

They had even knocked on every stone in the chamber, but nothing happened.

There were no doors, no hidden passages, and no sign of any kind of exit.

They had even attempted to dig a hole, but strangely enough, the rock surrounding the space seemed extremely special.

They couldn’t even leave a scratch on it.

“Ahhh!! Why are you both still chatting so calmly?!”

Just then, Shui Ruo suddenly sat up, causing her large breasts to jiggle seductively.

However, she didn’t seem to care at all as she frantically ruffled her hair.

“I’m going crazy!! Please, something..! anything…! Just happen already!!”

By the end of her outburst, Shui Ruo’s eyes burst into tears as she began to cry.

Seeing this, Yue Lan let out a small sigh before turning to look at Liu Yanyue.

“Let’s wait a few more days. Since Shen Jia isn’t here with us, there’s a high chance she’s still on the surface. She might already be seeking help.”

Liu Yanyue nodded.

“Hmm… But what if no one comes? What if no help arrives?”

“Then… I suppose that will be the end of our journey chasing immortality.”

Yue Lan answered calmly.

But at her words, Shui Ruo cried even louder after hearing everything.

“Y-You Azure Moon Sect people are all like this! I don’t want to die… hik… hik…”

She was already going mad from being trapped in this place for so long.

And now, having two new companions who were just as emotionless and detached as Yue Lan and Liu Yanyue didn’t make her feel any better.

They clearly had no idea how to comfort anyone at all!

She had imagined a grand adventure, finding treasures, or perhaps even discovering rare ingredients for a Foundation Establishment Pill before the secret realm closed.

It wasn’t really for her, though…

She had been planning to sell it to those rich heirs from wealthy families who lacked talent but still believed they could break through to the Foundation Establishment realm.

She didn’t care about them at all.

In the end, she would simply be swimming in spirit stones thanks to their stupidity.

But all those dreams had shattered on the very first day…

Because she had been lucky enough or perhaps unlucky enough to become trapped inside this stupid temple.

Now, not to mention getting rich, even her life might be forfeit as she rotted in here forever.

’N-No… my life can’t end here yet! I still have so many spirit wines I haven’t finished yet!’

Just remembering the secret stash she had spent a fortune collecting yet didn’t dare touch because of how precious it was… made her heart ache even more.

Shui Ruo then looked up at the dark ceiling and shouted tearfully,

“Anyone!! As long as you help us get out of here, we’ll do anything!!!”

“Hm? Why do you say ’we’ ?” Liu Yanyue asked calmly.

“Oh shut it! I’m trying to help all of us get out of this damn place!”

But then, as if Shui Ruo’s desperate wish had been heard…

Rumble….

Rumble….

The entire chamber suddenly began to tremble.

Both Yue Lan and Liu Yanyue immediately stood up, preparing themselves for any possible threat.

Shui Ruo just blinked in dumbfounded shock.

Then she suddenly saw a formation appear in the air above them.

Two figures fell out of the formation and crashed heavily onto the stone floor.

BOOM!

Li Feng hurriedly got to his feet and looked around cautiously.

“Are you alright, Ruyi—”

But his voice abruptly cut off.

Because he suddenly saw… a pair of large bosom flying straight toward him?

“???”

At this sudden turn of events, Li Feng’s mind became momentarily jumbled with confusion, unable to decide whether to dodge or accept his fate.

…So he simply stood there.

The next moment, his face was buried directly between a pair of soft, overwhelming cushions.

“Ahh!! The heavens actually answered my call!”

Shui Ruo excitedly jumped forward and hugged Li Feng tightly, her arms wrapping around his head as she enthusiastically pressed his face against her chest.

Li Feng could feel his face sinking into that heavenly softness, accompanied by a faint, pleasant fragrance.

In fact, it wasn’t just his face as his entire head was practically being enveloped by those soft, heavenly mounds.

Then Shui Ruo suddenly felt an intense stare.

She turned her head to the side and found Jian Ruyi staring coldly at her… or more specifically, at her large breasts.

“…Get off.”

Jian Ruyi murmured coldly as her hand slowly moved to draw her sword.

But before she could do anything—

Shui Ruo suddenly jumped off Li Feng and opened her arms wide toward Jian Ruyi.

Thump.

A pair of large breasts immediately smashed into Jian Ruyi’s face as Shui Ruo wrapped her arms around her in a tight embrace.

Jian Ruyi’s face was instantly buried in softness.

For a brief moment, the usually cold and composed sword cultivator completely froze.

Her mind went blank as a familiar memory suddenly resurfaced…

All she could feel was the suffocating warmth pressing against her face as Shui Ruo squeezed her tightly.

“Ahh!! So many people! I’m saved! I’m finally saved!!”

Shui Ruo cried loudly while hugging Jian Ruyi like a lifeline, her arms locked firmly around the stunned woman.

“…Let go.”

Jian Ruyi’s voice was low and icy.

But Shui Ruo clearly had no intention of listening.

“I thought I was going to die here alone! Do you know how scary it is being trapped here for a month?! A whole month!” Shui Ruo wailed, shaking Jian Ruyi slightly as she spoke.

Jian Ruyi’s eye twitched.

“…Let go.”

This time, her voice carried a faint chill.

Before the situation could escalate any further, Li Feng finally recovered from the sudden “attack” he had just experienced.

He rubbed his nose slightly, still feeling the lingering softness on his face.

’…So soft. That was quite the welcome.’

But seeing Jian Ruyi about to lose her patience, he quickly stepped forward and lightly tapped Shui Ruo on the shoulder.

“Ahem… Miss, perhaps you should release her before she cuts someone in half.”

“Huh?”

Shui Ruo blinked.

Only then did she notice the terrifying aura radiating from the woman she was hugging.

She immediately jumped back like a startled cat.

“S-Sorry!”

Jian Ruyi slowly sheathed her sword, her expression still cold as ice.

Meanwhile, Li Feng finally had the chance to properly look around the place.

The space was large and dim, supported by massive ancient pillars carved with worn, mysterious symbols.

But what caught his attention first… were the three women inside.

His gaze paused slightly.

Yue Lan.

She was standing not far away, her golden eye quietly observing him.

Despite the dim lighting of the temple, her figure still looked graceful and elegant, her calm expression unchanged as always.

And yet, for some reason, he could feel some emotion stirring within those golden eyes as they remained fixed on him without wavering.

“…”

“…”

Neither of them spoke as Li Feng found himself lost in the sight of his first woman, who looked as beautiful as ever.

He knew that beneath that icy and aloof exterior lay the warmest and most innocent heart he had ever encountered.

A woman who would silently endure everything.

A woman who would remember even the smallest kindness.

And also the first woman who had shown Li Feng the admirable side of those who wished to chase the unseen Dao.

’Strange… what is this feeling?’

For some reason, his heart which was usually filled with nothing but desire now seemed to be mixed with something else… something he couldn’t quite identify.

But just then—

A system notification he hadn’t heard in a long while interrupted his thoughts.

[Ding!]

[Congratulations, Host for gaining +100 Favor Points!]

Li Feng blinked in surprise.

But before he could even process it, Yue Lan finally opened her mouth and spoke softly.

“…You came.”

Her gaze seemed to soften slightly.
