Once this Pink Blaze entered his stomach.
Almost instantly, a blaze ignited from within his heart, and in moments it became a raging inferno.
And what it burned away was Sauron’s will.
This was indeed the most potent aphrodisiac under heaven, utterly impossible to resist.
Even using all his willpower, Sauron could only maintain a brief moment of clarity.
The raging inferno madly ravaged his mind, making his eyes turn completely red, his entire body burning hot and crimson as if boiled alive.
His whole person was on the verge of transforming into a beast.
At this moment, the two female warriors untied the quilt from the woman, revealing her exquisite, mature figure.
This woman was not tall, barely over one metre sixty, and appeared to be only around twenty years old. But in truth, she was nearly thirty.
However, her peach-blossom face made her appear especially young.
Although short in stature, her figure was exquisitely voluptuous, with a wasp waist and swelling hips. Even now, wearing loose silk nightclothes, her curves still stood out prominently.
“Why are you doing this to me?” the woman cried out toward Ash Luo, her voice filled with grief.
“Hehe…” Ash Luo said, “Little Mother Tao Su, have I not treated you well? Were you not formerly filled with admiration for the sir’s talent? Now you have the opportunity to admire his body as well. How wonderful that is.”
So this woman was called Tao Su, the most favoured concubine of Rouran City Lord Ash Mo.
Then Ash Luo said, “Sir Yan, enjoy yourself well. Once you have finished enjoying, we shall discuss proper matters.”
Then, Ash Luo waved his hand, and everyone withdrew from the secret chamber.
The entire secret chamber was left with only Sauron and City Lord Ash Mo’s concubine.
Sauron desperately fought to maintain clarity, to maintain his will. But this Pink Blaze was truly too astonishing, almost instantly devouring Sauron’s entire body.
“Demon Star, quickly, quickly devour the energy of this Pink Blaze.” Sauron ordered.
The Demon Star said, “Forgive me, master. This Pink Blaze is a medicinal substance, not a form of energy. Thus I cannot devour it.”
Sauron said, “Then knock me unconscious immediately, block my nerves, prevent me from doing anything.”
The Demon Star said, “Forgive me, I cannot do this.”
At this moment, Sauron’s entire body was fiery red, his whole person seeming about to explode.
“I am your master, and you dare defy my command?” Sauron said angrily.
The Demon Star said, “You are my master. I take guaranteeing your life safety as my foremost principle. As for moral principles, I pay them no heed. If I knock you unconscious, the medicinal power of this Pink Blaze will backlash against your body, causing irreparable fatal damage. Thus, please forgive me for being unable to comply!”
At this moment, the raging inferno devoured the last shred of Sauron’s reason.
Causing him to transform into a beast-like creature, pouncing toward Tao Su.
“Ah…” Tao Su, City Lord Ash Mo’s concubine, let out a soft cry. “Sir, what is wrong with you?”
“No, do not come over!”
Outside the door, Ash Luo listened to the heaven-shaking, earth-shattering movements within, a cruel smile upon his face.
…
A full two hours later.
Sauron regained his senses, but his body seemed completely drained, every joint burning with fiery pain.
Ash Luo clapped and said, “Sir Yan is truly formidable. A full two hours, tormenting my little mother to the point of death, until she finally fainted completely and was carried out.”
Sauron stared coldly at Ash Luo without speaking.
Ash Luo said, “You need not look at me thus, sir. After losing your wife, living alone is truly too arduous. As your student, I naturally must show you proper filial respect. Of course, you should also consider your student in return!”
Then, he produced a bundle of incense from his bosom and said, “This is Hell Demon Incense, a masterpiece from my Demon Continent. Once lit, the smoke, when inhaled into the body, will continuously weaken the meridians and dragon power. Moreover, it contains aphrodisiac substances that, over time, will permeate into the bloodline. I imagine you would not dare to drug my sister for me. But as her son’s tutor, you surely see her frequently, yes? Then before each meeting, light a stick of this Hell Demon Incense, allowing my sister to fully absorb its terrifying energy, until this block of ice melts into tender waters. How about that?”
Ash Luo had planted evil poison within A’nan’s body. To preserve A’nan’s life, Ash Liren needed to input dragon power into A’nan twice daily. This had already caused her cultivation to weaken.
But even so, Ash Liren’s martial arts still surpassed Ash Luo’s.
To be safe, he would use this Hell Demon Incense to greatly reduce Ash Liren’s martial arts.
Once her martial arts weakened to below Ash Luo’s, she would be at his mercy.
Ash Luo smiled and said, “Rest assured, this incense is colourless and odourless. I guarantee no one will know. My sister would never discover it under any circumstances.”
Sauron’s gaze gradually focused, and he stared at Ash Luo, hissing, “Never!”
Ash Luo said, “Sir Yan, you have just bedded my little mother. If my father were to learn of this, what fate do you imagine would befall you?”
Sauron said, “At worst, death, that is all.”
“Death?” Ash Luo said. “You speak too lightly. The house rules of our Ash clan are truly terrifying. As adulterers, you two would be stripped naked and paraded through the streets, with countless people throwing excrement upon you. Finally, you would be thrown into the Pit of Ten Thousand Snakes to be bitten to death. At your advanced age, death would of course be nothing. But Tao Su is in the flower of her youth. It would be too tragic for her to die. She was your most cherished student, was she not?”
Then, Ash Luo placed this box of Hell Demon Incense into Sauron’s hand and said, “I am going to attend the wedding of the dwarf and the cripple. I shall return in a dozen or so days. I hope to hear good news from you by then. Someone, escort the sir back.”
Then, several warriors stepped forward, placed the hood over Sauron’s head, and led him out of the underground secret chamber, throwing him into a carriage.
Approximately half an hour later, the carriage stopped.
A woman removed Sauron’s hood and patted his face, saying, “Serve my master well, understand?”
Then, she pushed him down from the carriage.
This was a street not far from Ash Liren’s residence.
…
In the evening, through Ash Yuanba, Sauron formally extended an invitation to Ash Liren.
In these twenty-some days, she had consistently denied Sauron any opportunity to meet.
Sauron sent away everyone in the courtyard, awaiting Ash Liren’s arrival.
In the evening, Ash Liren arrived gracefully. She did not even sit down, but stood in the courtyard and said, “Sir, if this is regarding Yuanba’s studies, I shall remain and speak with you. But if it is other matters, then let it be.”
She consistently denied Sauron the opportunity to speak of certain matters.
Sauron produced a box from his bosom and opened it. Inside were densely packed dozens of incense sticks.
“Does the lady know what this is?” Sauron asked.
“Incense.” Ash Liren said.
Sauron said, “This is called Hell Demon Incense. It is colourless and odourless. Once lit, the smoke permeates the air, entering people’s bodies unnoticed. It can gradually dissolve the bloodline dragon power within the human body, and will permeate aphrodisiac substances into the bloodline. In merely half a month, it can greatly reduce the cultivation of a top expert, and cause their passionate desires to burn fiercely.”
At these words, Ash Liren’s expression changed dramatically.
Sauron said, “You should be able to guess who gave this to me.”
“Ash Luo?” Ash Liren said coldly. “What did he use to coerce you?”
Sauron said, “He gave me a dose of Pink Blaze, then locked me in with your little mother.”
“Which little mother?” Ash Liren asked.
“Tao Su.” Sauron said. “Your father’s most favoured concubine.”
“Her?” Ash Liren’s gaze trembled.
Sauron said, “He has gone to attend a wedding in the Angry Wave Kingdom, and will return in half a month.”
His meaning was clear. Half a month later, if Ash Luo discovered that Liren’s martial arts had not greatly weakened, he would know that Sauron had not followed his orders.
Then, Ash Luo would expose this matter. Yan Ziyu and the city lord’s concubine committing adultery. The enraged City Lord Ash Mo would then inflict the most terrible punishment upon the two of them.
At that time, both would be thrown into the Pit of Ten Thousand Snakes to be bitten to death.
Ash Liren slowly closed her beautiful eyes, striving to calm herself. But the heaving of her chest betrayed the surging turmoil within her heart.
Her jade peaks were already of astonishing size, and this heaving seemed as though they would burst through her clothes.
Gradually, Ash Liren calmed down and said, “Since you are being threatened by Ash Luo, why have you come to tell me?”
Sauron said, “The lady asks while already knowing the answer.”
Ash Liren said, “May I ask, sir, what is your true purpose in coming to my side?”
Sauron did not answer directly, but said, “Ash Luo is deranged and utterly devoid of conscience.”
Ash Liren’s gaze contracted, and she said, “You… you have come for the sake of Ash Luo?”
Sauron said, “Lady, I find it difficult to understand. Ash Luo has offended you so gravely. Even if you are blood siblings, you have shown him more than enough kindness. Why do you still tolerate him? And how can one so frenzied and deranged as he become the City Lord of Rouran?”
Ash Liren said, “Sir, you do not understand. Ash Luo was not like this when he was young. It was after he went to the Demon Continent that his temperament changed drastically. Moreover, he went to the Demon Continent because of me.”
Sauron started and said, “Because of you?”
Ash Liren nodded and said, “Yes, because of me. From childhood, I suffered the torments of the Dragon Yin Severed Meridians. One day, a demon monk from the Demon Continent came to our home, saying that this Dragon Yin Severed Meridians of mine could only be cured in the Demon Continent, on the condition that I become a disciple of the Demon Continent. But his gaze toward me was extremely lewd, so my father refused. Later, Ash Luo proposed that he go to the Demon Continent in my place.”
Sauron started, never imagining there was such secret history. No wonder Ash Liren always tolerated her brother repeatedly, at most keeping him at a distance.
Instantly, he said with a cold laugh, “Lady, will you simply allow him to scheme against you endlessly? This time he failed to scheme against you through me. There will be a next time, and a time after that. Can you guarantee you will escape every one of his schemes?”
Ash Liren still remained silent.
Just at this moment, suddenly a figure walked in.
Sauron’s gaze turned cold. He had sent away everyone. Why had someone still come?
The person walked in, and seeing only Sauron and Ash Liren present, immediately started and said, “I… have I come at an inopportune time?”
The one who came was Fu Yan’er, Sauron’s cousin, the biological mother of his daughter.
“What is the matter?” Sauron said coldly.
Fu Yan’er said, “It is… it is regarding the matter I asked you to attend to the other day. You…”
She had asked Sauron to deliver a letter to Tianshui City, asking Sauron to send someone to collect them, mother and daughter.
“It is already being done.” Sauron said.
“Yes, then I shall go.” Fu Yan’er said, then hurriedly departed.
Ash Liren said, “What matter did she ask you to attend to?”
Sauron said, “She asked me to help deliver a letter to Tianshui City, asking Sauron to come collect them, mother and daughter.”
Ash Liren said, “Has she told you her identity?”
Sauron shook his head and said, “No. She speaks without beginning or end, merely asking me to help her deliver a letter.”
Then, Sauron pressed further, “Lady, I will not leave in half a month’s time. Even if Tao Su and I are thrown into the Pit of Ten Thousand Snakes, dying without a burial place. So what must be done, you must make your decision.”
…
At this moment, Fu Yan’er hurriedly returned to her room.
Inside, upon the small bed, her daughter Fu Qinqin was sleeping.
Suddenly, a low voice sounded, “Fu Yan’er, how fares the matter my master asked you to attend to?”
