After a brief exchange, the two guards told Luo Chen that Murong Fu was not at the manor and had gone out on business. However, Luo Chen did not let them off easily and gave them another beating before speaking, "Since that idiot Murong Fu is not here, what about A'Zhu and A'Bi? Are those two beauties at the manor? I can take advantage of the time while waiting for Murong Fu to return to spend some time with those two beauties."
"Just having some fun."
"Reporting to the hero, Miss A'Zhu has gone out on business with the young master. However, Miss A'Bi is at the manor," one of the guards said, wincing in pain.
"Great! With Abi around, I can use her to kill some time!"
Luo Chen laughed heartily, then exited the Demon King's Space and stepped into the Canhe Manor.
Along the way, they kept encountering the Murong family soldiers in the manor. One by one, they were fierce and menacing, shouting and driving Luo Chen away. However, the next moment, they were all drawn into the pet hunting ground by Luo Chen.
"Since Abi lives in Qinyun Xiaozhu, and Murong Fu hasn't brought her with him, she must be practicing the zither there!"
Luo Chen knew about Abi. Abi spoke with a soft Wu dialect, had a beautiful appearance, liked to wear green clothes, and was especially skilled in elegant music, playing the zither beautifully!
So, Luo Chen headed towards Qin Yun Xiao Zhu.
Before long, Luo Chen had walked through several corridors and water bridges. Just as he reached an archway, he suddenly heard a beautiful melody from a zither!
Upon hearing this beautiful music, Luo Chen smiled. Such exquisite music—who else but Abi could it be?
So he strode through the archway.
Beyond this archway lies a secluded waterside pavilion. In the distance, a small building stands, and on its open-air platform, a graceful figure dressed in green is gently playing the zither, facing the lake. The music is simply a pleasure to listen to…
Chapter 269 A Fine Woman of Jiangnan
This Abi is a native of Jiangnan, possessing the purest gentleness of a woman from the Jiangnan water towns.
The air in Jiangnan is moist and dewy, and it is precisely because of the sufficient moisture in the air that the women of Jiangnan have very tender and smooth skin.
At this moment, Luo Chen watched Abinana's graceful figure playing the zither. It just so happened that it was drizzling today. Such a beautiful woman, beautiful scenery, and beautiful music instantly painted a beautiful picture in Luo Chen's eyes!
Just like the beautiful scenery of Jiangnan, with a light drizzle, pavilions and terraces, and lotus ponds with shimmering water, each white lotus flower symbolizing purity!
At this moment, in Luo Chen's eyes, Abi seemed no longer to be playing the zither, but rather to be dancing gracefully alongside the zither spirit, her delicate hands lightly holding a colorful oil-paper umbrella unique to Jiangnan, dancing lightly in the gentle, nourishing rain.
Such beautiful music and scenery left Luo Chen somewhat mesmerized. He swallowed hard and instinctively walked towards Abi's retreating figure.
At this moment, Abi was completely immersed in her music, thinking that when Young Master Murong returned, she would present this piece to him, and he would surely like it very much.
Unbeknownst to her, her nightmare was about to unfold right behind her!
Luo Chen walked along the path on the lake toward Abi, thinking about how to catch Abi in a way that would excite him even more.
But just then, out of the corner of his eye, Luo Chen noticed that what was originally a beautiful picture of Jiangnan beauties had suddenly become stained!
In one corner of the Qin Yun Xiao Zhu (a small pavilion), a man in black was crouching against the wall, secretly watching Abi play the zither, his eyes revealing an intense fascination.
"Holy crap! Isn't this Feng Bo'e, the fourth-ranked of Murong Fu's four great retainers? In the original story, this guy is a simpleton who only knows how to fight. How come he's actually peeping at Abi? Can we be sure he has a crush on Abi?"
Immediately, Luo Chen's heart stirred, and he felt quite surprised.
Looking at the spot where Feng Bo'e chose to peek, it was extremely secluded, yet it didn't prevent her from taking in Abi's beautiful figure perfectly. Clearly, this wasn't the first time she had done this.
"It seems this guy really has a crush on Abi all along, but no one has ever known it. If I hadn't transmigrated into this martial arts world, I'm afraid no one would ever know that Feng Bo'e has a crush on Abi."
Luo Chen muttered to himself, his eyes suddenly darting around, wanting to test the power of the Datura Flower Spirit!
Since the two people in front of him had their backs to him, they naturally didn't see Luo Chen.
Luo Chen walked to the other side of Qin Yun Xiao Zhu, which was more secluded.
At this moment, Abi, Feng Bo'e, and Luo Chen are in a situation somewhat similar to the mantis stalking the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind.
"Come out, my magical pet, the Mandragora Flower Spirit!"
Luo Chen gave a low shout in his heart, and the next moment, the Datura flower spirit appeared in front of him. This Datura flower spirit looked like a sleepy child, standing listlessly.
"Use root entanglement!" Luo Chen commanded, looking at the datura flower spirit before him. The next moment, the datura flower spirit seemed to be injected with adrenaline, instantly reviving from its listless state. Then, the fiery red tassel atop its head, resembling a hat, emitted a faint light that vanished without a trace within a foot, posing no threat to anyone.
Find.
Suddenly, a large number of roots sprouted from beneath the feet of the Datura Flower Fairy, instantly burrowing into the ground of the Qin Yun Xiao Zhu (琴韵小筑).
Even though the floor of the Qin Yun Xiao Zhu was made of very solid granite, the roots of the Datura flower spirit still managed to burrow in, and very easily, just like poking tofu with chopsticks, they went in in an instant.
The next moment, Luo Chen discovered that he could gain a view of any place the roots of the Datura flower spirit had penetrated.
It has to be said that it was really dark underground. Every now and then I would encounter a few earthworms and a few strangely shaped insects, which was quite interesting.
The roots of this Datura flower spirit did not wander aimlessly. They quickly reached the bottom of the yellow granite where Feng Bo'e was, and quietly emerged from the granite behind him!
One, two, three...
More and more roots of the datura flower essence appeared behind Feng Bo'e, waving and swaying in the air like countless tentacles!
The next moment, these roots silently climbed onto Feng Bo'e's clothes and suddenly pulled hard!
The root system was covered with dense barbs, so when it was pulled, Feng Bo'e's clothes immediately tore into many pieces!
At the same time, the roots of the datura flower spirit also left several red marks on Feng Bo'e's body. The barbs on the roots carried the datura flower's innate poison—a hallucinogenic one!
Suddenly, his shirt was torn to shreds and pricked several times by countless dense barbs. Feng Bo'e cried out in pain and jumped up from the spot, looking behind him in horror and rubbing his wounds.
But he forgot that he was secretly watching Abi play the zither.
His jump immediately startled Abi, who was engrossed in playing the zither.
Abi hurriedly got up and immediately turned around. She immediately saw Feng Bo'e, who was shirtless, and screamed in surprise.
"Ah—Feng Bo'e, what are you doing!"
Since Abi was playing the zither on the water's terrace of the Qin Yun Xiao Zhu (a pavilion in the Qin Yun family), she had nowhere to retreat. Seeing a shirtless man, she was naturally terrified.
"Miss Abi..."
Upon seeing this, Feng Bo'e immediately wanted to explain, but at that moment, he suddenly felt dizzy, and the sunlight in front of him seemed to turn pink. The rays of light became hazy, making everything in front of him appear blurry.
At this moment, an evil thought broke through Feng Bo's original intention and suddenly surged out from Feng Bo's evil heart, filling his brain!
"Miss Abi, I, Feng Bo'e, have liked you for a long time. Just give in to me!" Feng Bo'e's eyes were unfathomable, becoming terrifying.
Chapter 270 Artificial Mouth and Mouth
Abi already found Feng Bo'e annoying because he only knew how to fight and kill all day long, and now, Feng Bo'e was coming towards her with such ill intentions.
Abi's face immediately paled slightly with fright. She took a few light steps back and shouted arrogantly, "Feng Bo'e! Get out of my way right now! If the young master comes back, he will definitely punish you!"
But Feng Bo'e was under the influence of the datura flower essence's hallucinogenic drug. His vision was blurred, and he was so captivated by the beautiful figure in front of him that he lost all sense of reason.
He moved closer and closer to Abi, leaving her with nowhere to escape on the waterfront terrace; any further retreat would send her into the pool.
"Feng Bo'e! If you dare take another step forward, I'll jump!"
Abi panicked. Seeing that Feng Bo'e was about to reach her, she immediately threatened him.
But the turmoil continued...
Seeing that her attempts to dissuade her were futile, and not wanting to be exposed to the dangers of the storm, Abi was about to jump into the pool.
Just then, she heard a wicked voice: "I never thought there would be such petty thieves in the Swallow's Nest Manor. Let me, Luo Chen, deal with this idiot!"
Luo Chen was quite satisfied with the attack method and effect of the Datura Flower Spirit, so there was no need to try it any further. He'd take Abi in first!
At this moment, Abi was filled with despair, but then Luo Chen appeared, which rekindled her hope. She looked at Luo Chen and said anxiously and softly, "Young master, please save me! My master will be very grateful to you!"
Luo Chen glanced at Abi and thought, "Tsk tsk, they say the water in Jiangnan nourishes people, and it's true. I didn't think much of Abi's back just now, but now that I see her beautiful cheeks, I realize that they are as tender as jade!"
Luo Chen didn't respond to Abi, because he wasn't trying to save her; he simply didn't want someone else to take away the delicious food he was about to enjoy.
Feng Bo'e also noticed that someone had arrived, and immediately turned around to see Luo Chen's figure.
Although his mind was in a state of chaos, his instinct for eye contact with wild animals was still there, so he immediately used the "Nine Great Dog-Biting Techniques of Lü Dongbin" and attacked Luo Chen frantically.
Seeing this, Luo Chen did not back down. He wanted to test Feng Bo'e's strength so that he could have a rough estimate of the strength of Murong Fu and the other three retainers.
When Feng Bo'e threw a punch, he met it with his palm.
Bang! Fist and palm collided, and both men retreated slightly. However, Feng Bo'e retreated seven or eight steps, while Luo Chen only retreated two or three steps. The difference in skill was immediately apparent!
"So he's only at the early stage of the Core Formation Realm. If that's the case, then the other three retainers must also be at the early stage of the Core Formation Realm. Therefore, Murong Fu's strength is very likely at the mid-stage of the Core Formation Realm!"
Luo Chen made a guess in his mind.
Although his current strength is also at the early stage of Core Formation, he is no longer the novice who has just entered the early stage of Core Formation. Therefore, he is quite confident in dealing with Feng Bo'e.
However, Luo Chen didn't need to exert much effort at the moment. With a thought, he immediately controlled the Datura flower essence to send several roots deep into the ground, which quickly wrapped around Feng Bo'e's legs, making him unable to move!
Then Luo Chen circled around to Feng Bo'e's back and swiftly chopped down on the back of Feng Bo'e's head with a chop! He knocked Feng Bo'e unconscious instantly.
Originally, Luo Chen could have defeated Feng Bo'e, but it wouldn't have been so easy. It was only because Feng Bo'e was under the influence of the Datura flower essence's hallucinogenic poison that his reaction abilities were impaired, allowing Luo Chen to easily succeed.
"what!"
Seeing Feng Bo'e fall straight down, Abi thought that Feng Bo'e had been killed by Luo Chen in one blow, and immediately screamed in shock.
Although Feng Bo'e had tried to harm her, he was, after all, one of Murong Fu's four most trusted retainers. If he died, Murong Fu would certainly be unhappy when he returned.
Abi likes Murong Fu and doesn't want to see him unhappy.
This scream caused Abi to trip over her own feet, lose her balance, and fall backward, landing in the lotus pond!
Luo Chen looked at it and exclaimed, "Holy crap, is this guy trying to commit suicide?" He replied, "Even if he's trying to commit suicide, he should wait until I've had my fun before he dies!"
Luo Chen stretched out his hand and captured Feng Bo'e in the Demon King's Space. Then, he rushed over and jumped into the lotus pond, rescuing Abi.
But in just a short while, Abi choked on the water and fainted.
Luo Chen, holding the soaking wet Abi, laid her flat on the terrace. Looking at this stunningly beautiful woman from Jiangnan, he couldn't help but sigh helplessly, "I originally intended to force myself on her, but I never expected to have to give Abi CPR. What the hell is this?!"
The next moment, Luo Chen stopped thinking too much, otherwise, if it was too late and Abi died, even a god would be unable to save her.
Although Luo Chen coveted Abi's body, he wouldn't stoop to doing something bad to a dead person.
Therefore, Luo Chen must save Abi!
He recalled how people performed CPR on television in his past life, and immediately tried to imitate them. He first poured the water out of Abi's mouth, and then began to blow air into Abi's small mouth.
After several artificial respirations, it worked!
Just as Luo Chen was performing the fifth artificial respiration, Abi suddenly woke up and immediately saw a large face, and felt a strange sensation in her mouth.
"what!"
Abi shoved Luo Chen away and screamed in alarm.
"Damn it! I saw you were about to die, so I put air in your lungs and brought you back to life, and not only do you not dare to write anything down, you even pushed me! Damn it, do you really think I'm made of clay?!" Caught off guard and pushed away by a frail woman, Luo Chen felt utterly humiliated. His anger flared, and he grabbed Abi's dark hair, pulling her face close to his eyes as he coldly shouted.
Chapter 271 Enhancing Loyalty While Playing the Qin
Having just been pulled out of the pool, Abi was feeling weak and dizzy, but Luo Chen's grab of her hair instantly brought her back to her senses.
She then realized that what Luo Chen had said about waking her up was true.
"Young Master helped me fight off Feng Bo'e before, and then rescued me from the water. You have indeed done me a great favor. Just now, it was my fault for talking back to you. I apologize to you."
Thinking of this, Abi felt that anyone would be angry if someone had been kind to her but she had wronged them. So Abi endured the pain of her hair being pulled and apologized to Luochen.
"Hmph! If apologies were enough, then all my anger was just a joke back then! Tell me, how do you want to repay me!"
Luo Chen didn't loosen his grip on Abi's hair. Instead, he stared intently with his large eyes. His malicious gaze swept from Abi's beautiful face down to her breasts, which were soaked by the pool water. A wicked smile unconsciously crept onto his lips.
"Huh? To repay?"
Upon hearing this, and seeing Luo Chen's gaze, Abi trembled, realizing what Luo Chen meant.
However, Abi was also clever. She immediately steered the conversation in another direction, saying, "When Young Master Murong returns and learns that you saved Abi, he will definitely reward you handsomely. Young Master Murong is known for his fair rewards and punishments!"
It has to be said that Abi is quite eloquent. Her words not only shifted the focus of Luo Chen's reward to other aspects, but also mentioned Murong Fu's clear distinction between rewards and punishments. Although it is unknown whether this is true or not, her words were actually a warning to Luo Chen.
It means, don't mess around, or Young Master Murong won't let you off the hook. "Hahaha! What did you say? That idiot Murong Fu is offering me a reward? Damn it! I saved you, not him, why would I want his reward? I want you! Since I saved you, you should repay me with your body! Although I'll suffer a little loss, I'm generous, so let's just leave it at that."
It's settled then!
Upon hearing this, Luo Chen burst into laughter, immediately pulled Abi's little face forward, and then kissed her fiercely.
"Well..."
After being kissed passionately by Luo Chen, Abi was unable to speak, and even her breathing became labored, as if she were about to suffocate.
A moment later, finding an opening, Abi immediately cried out in alarm, "Ah—you...you lecherous scoundrel! What are you doing!"
