Chapter 501: Master and Apprentice Showdown

Chapter 501: Master and Apprentice Showdown

The fishing rod trembled as Lin Nuo pulled up a fish from the river.

This was not the first one.

After squatting there for quite a while without catching anything, I was even tempted to just throw a net over the school of fish. But the moment Ling Meng showed up, they started biting.

I wondered if these fish had tastes, perhaps they were just fond of beautiful girls.

While Lin Nuo fished, he struck up a conversation with Ling Meng, whose gaze remained glued to his handsome face.

To her, this face was a masterpiece worth watching over and over again, and just staring at it put her in a good mood.

As she admired his looks and listened to his charming words, her heart began to race.

“Why do you keep staring at me?”

Lin Nuo noticed his female apprentice’s unwavering gaze and reached up to touch his face, wondering if something odd was stuck on it.

This girl was the leader of the Refining Demon Sect, usually exuding the authority of a leader, but in front of him, she seemed just like a naive little girl.

“What about looking at me? I’m not giving you candy.”

“Master Demon Ruler.”

“What is it?”

“What do you think of your disciple?” Ling Meng asked sincerely.

“Exceptional talent, a good seedling, but even the best seedling needs diligence to grow.”

“Not that!”

Ling Meng interrupted Lin Nuo:

“Forget about talent and cultivation, just treat me like a woman, okay?”

Lin Nuo paused, sizing her up, and casually replied:

“Pretty good.”

“What does ‘pretty good’ mean?”

“Just pretty good.”

“What about my looks? My figure? My personality? My aura? And…”

“All pretty good.”

Before Ling Meng could finish, Lin Nuo casually interrupted her again.

Ling Meng felt frustrated; this master was as cold as a block of stone, completely lacking in romantic charm.

“Master, you’re too perfunctory. This attitude will get you into trouble.”

“I’m just speaking the truth; you really are pretty good in every aspect. But if you want me to elaborate, sorry, I’m at a loss for words. Look, another fish on the line.”

As soon as he finished, he pulled up his rod again, catching a big fish.

Now there was another wriggling fish nearby, slowly becoming covered in grass just like its neighbor.

Ling Meng probably had a passive ability to attract fish; as soon as she arrived, the fish started biting.

Great, this female apprentice had another function: fish magnet.

Ling Meng was furious; she was right next to him, yet he was focused on the fish instead, treating her dismissively.

Lin Nuo glanced at the fish and thought it was time to start a fire to cook them. They had gathered enough for a family meal; family was most important when they were all together.

However, while Lin Nuo was lost in thought, Ling Meng leaned closer to his face.

When he turned his head, Ling Meng wrapped her arms around his neck and kissed his lips.

This master was like a stone; she had to use action to warm him up.

For instance, a passionate kiss.

Wasn’t this master the one who initiated kisses in her dreams? Now she was taking the initiative to wake his wild side.

Come on, master, let’s see what you’re hiding!

As a connoisseur of lips, Lin Nuo was now reinforcing his memory bank of Ling Meng’s lips.

It was sweet with just a hint of spice, a bit spicier than their last goodbye, but it felt good.

Maybe it was because of her demon power upgrade?

Who knows, but it felt nice.

But he couldn’t voice this evaluation; otherwise, this female apprentice would become even bolder.

Where would his masterly authority go then?

Ling Meng felt the kiss was quite nice—sweet with a hint of spice, just to her taste.

But soon, things took a turn; the spiciness began to accumulate, like a fire raging in his mouth, making him feel like he’d end up in the clouds.

He attempted to break free, but Ling Meng was consciously using her spirit-fueled techniques, suffusing them with a faint dark demon aura, binding them together.

And her grip around his neck was quite strong; it wasn’t so easy to escape.

With long-standing experience, he knew brute force wouldn’t work in this situation.

Smart Lin Nuo had a backup plan; his sleeve had a hidden compartment containing paralysis needles.

The moment he struck true, he pierced Ling Meng’s arm.

These paralysis needles had been modified for quick effects; soon, her hands would weaken, allowing him to break free.

But that didn’t happen; her hands remained strong, and the dark aura surrounding them showed no sign of dissipating, gradually trying to permeate his body.

That fiery sensation—Grass Mud Horse, it was igniting!

One needle wasn’t enough; several more flew from his sleeve, landing on Ling Meng’s body.

This time it felt better; clearly, he sensed her grip had weakened a bit. If he could just shake off her hands and push her away, he could get free.

Ling Meng felt her body tiring, realizing it was her master’s weapon, the paralysis needle.

This master, lacking martial ethics, was using hidden weapons on his own disciple!

She would never show weakness; immediately, she channeled her internal demon aura to expel the toxin from the paralysis needle.

Knowing oneself and knowing the enemy is the key to victory, as her master had taught her, so she had specifically researched the characteristics of his paralysis needles. She hastily worked to dispel the poison while reinforcing her defenses, ensuring the effects of the paralysis needles wouldn’t affect her.

As soon as Lin Nuo’s lips left hers, she quickly purged some of the poison, reasserted her strength, and kissed him again.

Not a chance you’ll escape! Master, just enjoy your disciple’s love!

【This Ling Meng has some moves!】

Lin Nuo had already realized that Ling Meng was quite the challenge; indeed, she was a genius, and after his guidance, she was no longer naive but keenly aware, even mindful of countering his paralysis needles; while dispelling the poison, she was also guarding against it, and now she could even fend off his paralysis needles entirely.

Wow, just wow! Dispel poison while defending and still keeping up the offensive (kissing)—such talent!

But your master is still your master; the paralysis needle was just one of his tricks, not the only hidden weapon.

He had specially concocted seductive incense; the beauty of this thing was that it had resistance, meaning he wouldn’t faint, while those without resistance would.

Against Ling Meng, he couldn’t harm her; otherwise, she would explode, and he didn’t have his abilities to withstand that, so he had to use methods that wouldn’t threaten her life but could still restrain her.

Wasn’t the Great威天龙 Luo Yi the one who popped out of a box back then? Unboxing came with a jar of seductive incense.

He endured the fiery kiss and took out the seductive incense, releasing it, and the fragrance began to waft through the air. Ling Meng inhaled some, starting to show symptoms of fatigue, feeling drowsy.

Seeing his chance to escape her lips, Lin Nuo pulled back; however, Ling Meng, with her steadfast willpower, held on and unleashed a wave of devilish energy, scattering the seductive incense.

Lin Nuo couldn’t believe it; she could do that too?

Just when he was almost free, Ling Meng summoned her strength and hugged him again, kissing him once more.

Spicy, fiery—let it burn!

Next, Lin Nuo tried many tactics and almost succeeded, only to be countered by Ling Meng once again.

Their situation was a repetitive cycle of kissing, breaking free, kissing, and breaking free.

This was a true master-apprentice showdown.
