You’re Not Allowed to Flirt With Anyone Else

The two quickly reached the ambush point and concealed themselves in the bushes, waiting for the target fox demon to appear.

With Li Ziyue by her side, Su Wanqing didn’t need to focus too hard; the Nascent Soul elder could tell demon from human with a single glance.

Gradually, Su Wanqing zoned out, lost in thought as she planned her next moves.

Li Ziyue’s instructions were simple: if the fox demon tried to flee, Su Wanqing was to help stall her.

During the fight, assist when possible; if not, look for openings.

But Su Wanqing knew that once the real fight started, she might not actually be much help; the demon was holding a hostage.

Neither Li Ziyue nor Su Wanqing could act recklessly with an innocent life on the line.

Li Ziyue, being a kind-hearted Red Embroidery Sect elder, would never allow a mortal to die because of their sect’s mistake.

And Su Wanqing? She knew exactly who the “hostage” was; there was zero chance she’d let the heroine get hurt.

Unbeknownst to her, the person beside her was currently suffering greatly.

Because they were hiding, they were pressed very close together.

Li Ziyue couldn’t concentrate at all.

Her eyes kept drifting toward the beauty beside her without permission, especially that intoxicating fragrance wafting from Su Wanqing’s body; it was impossible to ignore.

Even when she forcibly controlled her gaze, she still had to breathe.

Every breath pulled in more of that scent, making her eyes involuntarily flick toward its source again.

Not to mention the occasional brush of fabric against fabric; pure torture.

Now Li Ziyue was seriously regretting not splitting up and ambushing from opposite sides.

Yet at the same time… she felt secretly thrilled.

To be this close to the rumored number one beauty of Mengyun Continent…

!

Realizing she was acting strange, Li Ziyue shook her head hard, forcing herself to wake up.

Something was wrong with that fragrance.

The longer she smelled it, the weirder her thoughts became. Su Wanqing was occupying more and more space in her mind.

Thankfully, her mental state was strong enough to suppress it.

Anyone else would have already lost composure, maybe even done something irreversible.

This made her curious; where exactly was that scent coming from?

Sachet? Perfume?

She didn’t see any sachet on Su Wanqing.

And if it was perfume, it shouldn’t invade the heart like this; normal perfume only stimulated the nose.

Body fragrance?

She had never heard of anyone having natural body fragrance this strong. Body odor, maybe.

The more she thought about it, the more puzzled she became.

They had both concealed their auras, yet the fragrance was still this potent.

Good thing it smelled like flower nectar; otherwise it would definitely give away their position.

Li Ziyue wasn’t too harsh on herself. Maybe Su Wanqing was doing it on purpose. She let it go.

Meanwhile, Su Wanqing was too focused on the path ahead to notice the rapidly changing expressions on Li Ziyue’s face.

!

She suddenly tensed; a figure appeared in the distance.

Time, place, number of people, body sizes; everything matched.

This was it.

“Hurry!”

“Y-Yes…”

As expected, two females were walking down the small path: one older, one younger.

The older woman was dressed garishly, face caked in makeup, most obvious were her classic fox eyes.

Even from afar, Su Wanqing could smell the overwhelming rouge and powder.

Yet no amount of perfume could mask the raw demonic fox charm; or rather, the rank fox stench.

Disgusting.

How much perfume and rouge did she bathe in to produce such an aggressive smell?

She was wearing at least five or six sachets, and it still couldn’t cover the fox odor.

In this world, the strength and path of a fox demon could be judged by scent alone.

A properly cultivating fox demon would never smell this foul.

This one? One whiff told Su Wanqing everything: she cultivated through the evil path, absorbing human essence and blood.

Following behind the fox demon was a girl who looked barely sixteen, wearing old, ill-fitting clothes.

Malnourished and frail, but even so, Su Wanqing could tell at a glance; judging by bone age, she was exactly sixteen.

In other words, now that the fox demon was confirmed…

The girl’s identity was also confirmed.

The heroine, Ning Yuer, was exactly sixteen years old right now.

Looking closely, even skin and bones, you could still see she was a stunning beauty in the making.

Once properly fed and cared for, she’d be a nation-toppling little goddess.

This was the true protagonist of a proper female-lead stallion novel!

The one and only true god who only sought immortality and ascension!

How could the protagonist possibly be ugly?

Right now her hair and eyes were still black, but hidden beneath those tacky bangs were beautiful, bright golden eyes.

As her cultivation progressed, her hair would change color too.

But awakening those eyes had ruined her life.

Heterochromia had always been considered a curse in superstitious mortal society.

Even if it appeared later in life, people shunned her.

Even her own parents…

Come to think of it, Ning Yuer and Chen Xueli were quite similar; both originally sought only longevity, both walked extreme paths for it.

Only now Chen Xueli’s goal had shifted from immortality to… her master.

Who knew how the future would change now that Ning Yuer had lost a destined archenemy and soulmate on the path.

“Elder Li, they’re here. Prepare for a frontal ambush.”

Su Wanqing finally noticed Li Ziyue had been distracted. She gently nudged her and whispered a reminder while the fox demon was still far away.

“Mm.”

Both instantly entered battle mode, bodies tense, ready to strike at any moment.

But none of them; neither the fox demon, nor Su Wanqing, nor Li Ziyue; realized the classic “mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind.”

At that very moment,

Atop a tall ancient tree with a perfect view of everything,

Shen Xianyue was munching on a wild fruit, looking down at Su Wanqing and Li Ziyue hiding in the bushes, utterly confused.

“Why is beautiful sister here too?”

But the confusion didn’t last long.

Her attention was quickly stolen by Su Wanqing’s outfit today.

“But damn… beautiful sister is absolutely gorgeous today.”

“Is she dressed up like this to meet some little lover?”

“No way in hell is Yue-er allowing that.”

“You’re mine.”

“You’re not allowed to flirt with anyone else~”
