Chapter 867: To the Center
The essence of Cold Water lies in Mu Yiting’s saliva; this saliva is the soul of Cold Water and is indispensable.
This is also a crucial reason why Lin Nuo couldn’t break through his technique—he lacked this saliva and couldn’t create pure Cold Water.
The purest taste of Cold Water is, indeed, Mu Yiting’s saliva. This saliva is potent and possesses an exceptionally strong flavor of Cold Water, far better than just drinking it.
The two of them immediately engaged in a passionate kiss, and from then on, Lin Nuo savored the most authentic Cold Water, feeling thoroughly satisfied. Moreover, Mu Yiting was also a beauty, so kissing her was undoubtedly a pleasure.
Of course, when it comes to pleasure, Mu Yiting had a far better time. After not seeing each other for a long while, a passionate kiss was delightful. She held Lin Nuo tightly, showing no signs of wanting to let go.
If Lin Nuo didn’t have a goal to pursue—he needed to find Ruo’er—otherwise, he could’ve indulged in kissing Mu Yiting a bit longer. The taste of Cold Water was truly addictive; once you sampled it, you wished to have more.
After a while of kissing, they finally pulled apart. It was initially Lin Nuo who wanted to break free, but Mu Yiting wasn’t done yet and tried to pull him back for another kiss. This was basically a common issue with girls; they all had such tendencies.
However, Lin Nuo ultimately managed to break away, wiping the saliva from his lips.
“That’s enough. I have business to attend to.”
“When you’re done with business, can we continue? Sounds good, right? You were enjoying it too, weren’t you? I know you like this taste, right?”
Mu Yiting had him figured out. She was well aware that he loved the taste of Cold Water, and currently, her saliva was precisely that pure flavor.
Lin Nuo didn’t hide it from her; he always spoke rather directly with Mu Yiting.
“Sure, we can find another place later.”
“Great, I’ll wait for you. So where are we going now? Can I follow you?”
“You have your subordinates. They can’t keep up.”
“In that case, I want to follow you. What can we do about that?” Mu Yiting tugged at Lin Nuo’s sleeve, asking.
“Right now, I can’t afford to take you with us. But you can have them gather and hide somewhere. I’ll use Dao Fu to conceal their presence so Refining Demon Sect won’t find them. You come with me.”
“Okay, that’s what you say.”
Praising him again, Mu Yiting complied with Lin Nuo’s orders, gathering her subordinates to hide, while Lin Nuo prepared the necessary talismans.
Then, accompanied by Mu Yiting and guided by the Immortal Fox’s direction, they set off to find the White Immortal Fox clan.
To be honest, Lin Nuo didn’t want anything to happen to Mu Yiting; without authentic Cold Water, life wouldn’t be as enjoyable.
Moreover, while spending time with Mu Yiting, Lin Nuo felt very comfortable, able to speak freely without any blockages.
Additionally, given Mu Yiting’s current influence and line-up, it’s likely she would eventually align with the demonic path, and with a high probability at that.
How could a woman like her easily give up? It seemed quite unlikely.
Lin Nuo and his company swiftly approached the center of the demonic circle, where peaks rose steeply, indicating the terrain was evidently higher than elsewhere.
There should be more White Fox clans inside. The Refining Demon Sect was pressing in, systematically shrinking the demonic circle as they advanced toward the center.
“By the way, what’s your current situation? I heard you betrayed the Xuanyun Sect alongside your senior sister Liu Shuqin, leaning towards the demonic path. Is that true?” Mu Yiting asked.
“Indeed.”
“And what’s your stance now? Are you going to oppose the Immortal Sect, or the Refining Demon Sect?”
“I intend to destroy them all.”
“That’s a path I’ve never considered. But thinking about it, if you were to annihilate them and then establish your own organization, the world would surely be wonderful.”
“Is that so? I think the world would be quite terrible. Yet, terrible is exactly what I desire.” Lin Nuo chuckled coldly.
“Wherever you are will naturally be wonderful. At least it feels that way to me.”
Mu Yiting smiled, feeling that her life was beautiful because of Lin Nuo’s presence.
“If only I’d met you earlier in my last life,” Lin Nuo remarked, leaving Mu Yiting puzzled.
“What do you mean? Isn’t meeting me in this life good?”
“Not at all. It’s quite good; let’s hurry, we’re going up the peak.”
As Lin Nuo quickened his pace, a gust of wind surrounded him, and he directly raced toward the depths of the center.
There was nowhere left for the Immortal Foxes to escape, and they couldn’t flee the demonic circle, so they simply surged toward the center to find their leader and other fox clan companions.
Now Liu Ping wasn’t idle either; he was growing increasingly restless. The demon disciples he dispatched failed to capture the incoming Lin Nuo.
“Follow my orders, encircle this area. We’ll cast a new array to exterminate them all inside. We won’t capture those Immortal Foxes anymore; let’s just kill them.”
Liu Ping commanded angrily, no longer intending to capture the Immortal Foxes but opting for outright extermination.
Taking matters into his own hands, he set up a smaller, more potent array enveloping the central peak, with Demon Qi continually surging inward.
This Demon Qi had a strong corrosive effect. As it seeped in, trees and flowers wilted rapidly.
Eradicate, eradicate them all.
“They can’t escape. Even if they want to fly out, they cannot.”
Liu Ping had also set up the demon instruments pointing toward the sky. If anyone tried to fly out on their swords, they could simply bombard them.
Defensive capabilities while flying are ridiculously weak, making it easy to bring them down.
Of course, these magical artifacts were still no match for Lin Nuo’s Sky-Dragon Charge, a miraculous move against airborne foes.
The outer layers of the Refining Demon Sect were surrounded, releasing Demon Qi within, and prepping bombardments. This would force everything inside to perish.
Liu Ping believed there was absolutely no place to escape; that brat couldn’t take everyone with him.
Just wait.
…
Lin Nuo sensed the aura of immortality. Here, the Immortal Foxes had set up an array, their final stronghold, making a last-ditch effort to fend off the Refining Demon Sect’s assault.
He could also see the corpses lying on the ground.
Demon Beasts, Immortal Beasts, and even Immortal Beasts and Immortals; the ones he encountered previously in Hansheng Valley had all fallen, and the scene was now in disarray, evidently having gone through fierce battles.
“There’s an Immortal array here.”
Mu Yiting remarked, indicating Lin Nuo should pay attention.
“Quite normal. This is their last line of defense. But at least it can hold them off for now.”
Lin Nuo grinned coldly. Without breaking the array, he slipped inside without triggering an explosion.
“You truly are impressive, traversing the array as if it’s just an ordinary path. How much strength do you possess?”
“You’ll find out later.”
Lin Nuo continued to chuckle coldly and pressed deeper.
Soon, the fox clan began to grow alert.
“Not good, someone has breached the array!”
The fox clan was in a panic; this array had been built for a long time and had never faced this scenario before.
“Follow me to check it out.”
A white fox girl brandishing a sword prepared to go forward.
