854 The Ten Day Promise

Everyone's eyes were focused on Mo Wen and the enchanting woman. Mo Wen cried out bitterly inside. It was a battle between two women, but the flames of their war had reached him. This woman clearly had no intention of letting him go.

Tang Zhizhi also looked at Mo Wen in astonishment. Could this really be happening? Did her employer actually have such charm? Could suave and handsome actually be used to describe him? She was stunned and confounded by this female foreigner's unpredictable behavior.

"Can you do it? Can you defeat me on the battlefield like a man? I like you. Can you do this small favor for me?" the enchanting woman said as she looked at Mo Wen with eyes seeking pity and a doleful look on her face.

"I can't deny that you are very beautiful, but in my heart, my wife is the most beautiful woman I know. I love only her. I am truly sorry to disappoint you," Mo Wen said. Who was he? How would he fall for such a trap? Could such a low-level trick ensnare him? However, it was not wise for him to suddenly turn publicly hostile towards this woman, in case she used the opportunity to stir up trouble.

Pei Fengwu had been walking over but suddenly stopped in her tracks. She rolled her eyes at him. Only love this one woman? How did Mo Wen dare to utter such a sentence? The women of the Fengwu team had uncovered almost all of his affairs. There were no fewer than three women who had been in some kind of relationship with him. Otherwise, the maidens in the team would not keep calling him a flirtatious radish. The woman by his side at the moment was not someone that they knew either.

Regardless of whether the other women believed in him or not, Pei Fengwu knew him well.

"Do you really not like me? I don't care how many women you have. A man with charm will always attract many women. It validates the fact that I have a good eye for men." The enchanting woman looked sadly at Mo Wen. She looked as though Mo Wen was abandoning her.

The voice of the enchanting woman had a mysterious charm. When she said these words, it caused others to want to agree with her uncontrollably. The eyes of some people who were standing closer to Mo Wen were crimson-hot and they were nodding madly.

"Say yes to her."

"Say yes to her."

"Say yes to her."

The surrounding group of people shouted as though they were under a spell. Their frenzied looks suggested that if Mo Wen did not agree, they would come forward to kill him.

Mo Wen was shocked. The enchanting woman's voice was highly provocative, like the language of fairies. This was a very special type of mental attack that did not completely rely on mental power. The most miraculous part was her voice. Her voice seemed to naturally be able to make someone lose their mind.

If Mo Wen was just an ordinary ancient martial art practitioner or if his soul realm was lower, he would most likely have inexplicably agreed to her request. Even an ordinary Martial Arts Grandmaster would most likely fall for her trick if they were not aware of what she was doing.

Mo Wen did not know that this woman was called Yao Yu [1]. Her voice naturally had an enchanting charm.

"I've already told you that I am not interested in you," Mo Wen said plainly. This woman had used such a method against him! His expression turned grim.

"Despicable! You are such a shameless woman, trying to seduce the husband of another woman right in front of her. Do I even exist for you?"

Gong Biluo also noticed that something was off. Originally, she was preparing to watch the scene play out with a cold look. But this woman's seduction had failed, and she had instead resorted to such underhand methods. Gong Biluo could not just sit there and watch.

"Humph, a beauty is before you and is just within your reach, but you actually dare not take her. Could it be that the men of Hua Xia Country are all so useless?"

The smile on the enchanting woman's face slowly disappeared. Knowing that her seduction had failed, she turned to goading and said, "As expected, you men of Hua Xia are all cowards. I truly have wasted my time setting up my jousting for a spouse challenge ring in your country. Originally, I thought that Hua Xia had at least a few people that were real men. Sadly, all of you are cowards."

The voice of the enchanting woman had a miraculous charm to it. The peculiar voice reverberated across the square. There were many people in the crowd watching what was going on. Few people could take the woman's provocation.

"Go in and kill that woman! Don't be a coward!."

"Retreating after encountering such an incident!. Are you still a man? If you are, get in there and take that woman down!"

"None of the people of Hua Xia are as much of an embarrassment as you! A woman is insulting your country right in front of you, and you actually have no response. I feel ashamed for you."

"If you are not going to go into the challenge ring, then get out of Dragon City. The martial art circle of Hua Xia has no one as cowardly as you."

Voices of condemnation sounded from all around. The eyes of the surrounding people turned red one by one. This woman's challenge ring had been in Dragon City for three days, but no one in Dragon City dared to battle her anymore. They were already pent up with frustration. Now that they had been provoked by this woman, their fury was immediately unleashed.

Mo Wen frowned. This woman had truly spared no effort to go against him. However, he was also very shocked inside. The voice of this enchanting woman was definitely powerful. She could have such influence with just a few words.

The people in the square were not ordinary citizens. Those who could come to Dragon City had at least some cultivation. People of the Qi Nucleation Realm were considered existences of the lowest level in Dragon City. Those with Embryonic Breathing Realm cultivation were plentiful. People of the Golden Elixir Realm could be found everywhere. Under such circumstances, she actually could incite so many people to lose their minds. Even with his huge soul power, Mo Wen could not do anything about it.

"Interesting." Mo Wen looked at the woman before him.

"I have provoked you. Do you dare answer?" Yao Yu said plainly.

"In ten days, if you still have your challenge ring set up, I will play with you a little. Of course, that assumes that you will not have been beaten by others and become their plaything," Mo Wen said nonchalantly. Then, he turned and left.

It was already meaningless to continue to stay here. He promised to battle this woman in ten days. He did not just agree because he was pushed into such a situation. It was just that he did not like to simply back down. Since a woman had provoked him in such a manner, he had no reason to refuse the challenge.

The reason why he chose to wait ten days was that his current cultivation was at a critical stage. He had only just recovered from his injuries after being severely injured last time. It was inconvenient for him to immediately go into battle against a strong enemy. At the same time, he had also been astonished to discover that, seemingly due to the lightning power surging in his body, the shackles that kept him between realms had loosened. He showed faint signs of breaking through to the Martial Arts Grandmaster Realm.

Over the next ten days, he might be able to grasp the opportunity to break through. Of course, he could also probably miss this opportunity. Breaking through to the Martial Arts Grandmaster Realm was still nowhere in sight. After all, the most important thing when it came to cultivating was fate. The further one reached, the more one needed the slightest traces of luck. Breaking through to the next realm was not something that he could just do by cultivating diligently.

Gong Biluo looked coldly at Yao Yu, but she did not say anything. She turned and left, following him. If this woman dared to do as she pleased, Gong Biluo had her own ways of dealing with her.

The square momentarily fell silent. Mo Wen left behind his ten day promise. His words reverberated in the ears of everyone. An absolute soul power forcefully surged into their minds. The people who were in a fanatical state immediately sobered up. It was as though they had been drenched from head to toe in cold water, and their consciousness cleared up instantly. However, they completely forgot what they had said and done just now.

"Such powerful soul power! It is actually not weaker than my own."

A look of surprise flashed in Yao Yu's eyes. Her mental realm was not too different from those Divine Way strong practitioners. It was enough to be comparable to the Hua Xia Country's Primordial Soul Realm immortal cultivators. This youth's soul power was no weaker than her own in terms of both quantity or quality. It was intriguing.

"A ten day promise? I initially thought that Dragon City was boring and was preparing to leave. But I actually came across such an interesting person. What harm is there in me waiting for you? You truly are ambitious to want to make me, Yao Yu, your plaything."

…

Neither Mo Wen and Gong Biluo were not ordinary people. They made their way through the crowd easily. In a short while, they had already left the square.

Pei Fengwu, who was originally walking toward Mo Wen stopped in her tracks. Before this, she had been worried that Mo Wen would fall for this witch's trick, so she had wanted to come over to warn him. But Mo Wen had already given the final word. He had arranged for them to fight ten days later. It seemed that it was meaningless for her to walk over there anymore.

Moreover...

Pei Fengwu glanced at Gong Biluo standing next to Mo Wen. She hesitated, standing still and not taking a step forward for a long while.

Gong Biluo seemed to have sensed something. She turned back to look at Pei Fengwu, then she turned again and looked at Mo Wen beside her. She rolled her eyes. This little man was truly capable of provoking women.

"Why did he agree to Yao Yu's conditions? Yao Yu is rather mysterious. Even the Huatian Palace does not know anything about her."

A look of concern flashed in Pei Fengwu's eyes. She had a worried look on her face. She knew that Mo Wen was not normal. Back in the Fighting Spirit Tower, he had been even more glorious. However, this world was too big. One would never know how high the sky was. Mo Wen did not have the power he had in the Fighting Spirit Tower. Even if he was still that powerful, it was impossible for him to claim that he was invincible.

...

"That person is called Mo Wen. He is a member of our Martial Arts Grandmaster Palace Hall. Why did the witch suddenly find fault with him?"

Two people stood on a tower nearby. Both of them were youths. One had a very ordinary appearance and figure. If he was standing in the crowd, he would definitely be overlooked. But this person had exceptionally sharp eyes. It seemed as though people that he looked at would feel daggers tearing up their flesh. The other person was the exact opposite. His figure was slender and he had handsome features. Together with his outstanding temperament, he was a typical suave young man.

"I also know some things about him. He joined the Martial Arts Grandmaster Palace Hall not long ago. Rumor has it that he is just over twenty and he already has Martial Arts Grandmaster level combat ability. He truly is a rare absolute genius. Back when I was his age, I was still around the pinnacle of the Golden Elixir Realm," the ordinary youth said with a smile. From his position, the entire square could be seen at a glance.

"Guo Mengqiao, it seems illogical for him to make such a choice. Both you and I have tried before. This woman is unfathomable. It is likely that we would not be a match for her even if we joined forces," the handsome youth said in a slightly serious tone.

The woman had publicly set up a challenge ring in Dragon City, clamoring to challenge all the youth geniuses of Hua Xia Country. As strong young practitioners at the very top, it was naturally impossible for them to not know of such an incident.
