"Moreover..."

"Miss Xinyao, if you really want to fight me to the death, do you truly believe I have no trump cards just because I didn't counterattack earlier?"

After speaking softly, Jinyue narrowed her right eye and displayed the black abyss mark in her left eye with a threatening tone.

Since they were both demons from the Western Region, Jinyue believed Xinyao understood perfectly what her trump card was.

In conventional combat, Jinyue indeed couldn't defeat Xinyao.

But as the saying goes, always leave someone a way out. If Xinyao didn't appreciate her mercy, Jinyue would certainly make her pay the price.

"It's just a demon eye..."

Seeing the other's increasingly assertive attitude, Xinyao reluctantly stepped back twice.

She was indeed caught between Jinyue's soft and hard approaches.

But at least in spirit and words, Xinyao, being on her home turf, refused to yield.

"Hehe... demon eye?"

"Have you truly seen a demon eye like this before?"

After their lengthy conversation, the soreness in Jinyue's body gradually dissipated.

Her breathing became even as she stood up by supporting herself against the wall, regaining the true aura she possessed as a demonic witch.

As Jinyue issued her threat, her left eye's abyss mark emitted an eerie demonic light.

With just a moment's pulse of illusion...

Xinyao felt dizzy, as if the entire treasure pavilion—no, the entire world and dimension—was spinning with the kaleidoscope in Jinyue's eye.

Gradually, Xinyao even felt herself becoming unstable with a sense of weightlessness.

"Alright, alright! I know your eye is extraordinary! Stop spinning it—you're making me dizzy!"

With one hand on the wall and the other on her head, she ultimately yielded under Jinyue's extremely bizarre illusion.

On the other side, Jinyue contentedly retracted the black mark from her left eye.

"This is the Abyss Eye."

"It doesn't have particularly powerful combat abilities, but it can alter the fundamental memories of this world..."

"For example."

"Before you try to kill me, I could perhaps make you permanently lose all memories related to Yino from the past ten years."

"Of course, Yino would also permanently forget all memories related to you."

Jinyue stood with her hands behind her back, her peach blossom eyes slightly narrowed, smiling at the phenix girl.

Though her tone seemed gentle, her words struck at the heart. Just hearing them made Xinyao's scalp tingle with an almost instinctive fear.

As the most famous information broker in Western Province City, Xinyao naturally had heard of Jinyue's bizarre abilities.

Seven years ago...

The Holy Maiden- Yunmei's eyes were blinded by her.

For this very reason, when Xinyao crossed swords with Jinyue earlier, she was surprised that she only had Foundation Establishment level cultivation.

"So, what exactly do you want with my Yino?"

Knowing she couldn't gain the upper hand against Jinyue by force, Xinyao simply took the initiative to change the subject to something more practical.

After all, the world of cultivators wasn't about fighting and killing, but about human relationships.

As long as Jinyue didn't go too far, Xinyao wasn't opposed to reaching some kind of reconciliation with her.

"Nothing really, just dating."

Back to the topic, Jinyue still answered with a sincere face.

But the more she said so, the more uneasy Xinyao felt. She found it hard to accept that Yino had found a girlfriend outside, let alone that it was a demonic fox witch who had been causing a sensation in the Western Region for many years!

"Stop pretending. You must have used illusion techniques to bewitch Yino's mind..."

"Why don't you just name your price?"

"As long as you're willing to stay away from Yino from now on, you can pick any ten treasures from this treasure pavilion to take with you!"

Xinyao couldn't be bothered to discuss feelings with Jinyue and directly stated her expected price.

She was a merchant.

After operating the Hundred Spirits Pavilion in Western Province City for so many years, Xinyao had plenty of money. Never mind ten treasures—if Jinyue demanded more, she could even give her everything in the entire treasure pavilion.

After all...

Xinyao didn't put all her eggs in one basket. She had hidden many similar treasure pavilions at her various strongholds throughout the Great Dragon Dynasty.

"Miss Xinyao, are you joking?"

"Are you saying I used illusion techniques to bewitch Yino's mind?"

Jinyue felt like she'd heard the biggest joke from hell.

This feeling of suffering in silence strangely reminded her of Liuli from Azure Forest.

At that time, Lily had also stood up to defend Yino, telling Liuli not to bully Yino with evil techniques...

But the key point was that Jinyue was also a victim!

From the beginning to the end, she had never successfully used illusion techniques to hypnotize Yino. Not only that, but she had already been secretly implanted with evil techniques by Yino back at the Mountain Temple!

Moreover, later in Azure Forest, with Liuli's technical support, Yino's evil techniques grew increasingly powerful. Just last night, when they shared a bed, Yino used only one hand combined with his evil techniques to drive Jinyue to ecstasy, leaving her completely exhausted and even feeling dehydrated. Jinyue had to get up in the middle of the night to drink a whole tank of water before she fully recovered...

If anything, it should be said that Yino used evil techniques to corrupt her!

"Hmph, say what you will, but a fox demon not using charm techniques to seduce men? Even your fellow fox demons would laugh at such a claim!"

As an outsider, Xinyao naturally didn't understand why Jinyue was putting on such airs.

This was understandable, after all, the stereotypes about fox clans seemed remarkably consistent throughout the long history of both Eastern and Western peoples.

For a moment, Jinyue found it difficult to refute.

If other fox demons knew that Jinyue had been corrupted by a human's evil techniques, and had even been trained to become so sensitive... Jinyue would definitely be ridiculed as a disgrace to the fox clan!

But Jinyue had truly tried her best to resist!

Yino was just very strange. Jinyue didn't think he had any particularly bad intentions, but as she spent more time with him, her body seemed to have been imperceptibly trained by Yino into its current state.

Jinyue also found it strange!

But what could she do? She liked Yino, and setting aside any desire to win, she had gradually come to feel that her body becoming like this wasn't so bad...

At least when she was with Yino, she could easily find satisfaction and happiness!
