Chapter 1797: Often Out of Place Because Not Twisted Enough

Before Zu An could answer, Qiu Honglei quickly interjected, "No, you've arrived at the perfect time. Not only have you saved me, but Ah Zu is also in danger and could faint at any moment."

Hmph, Ah Zu, now you know who truly cares about you the most, don't you?

Chu Chuyan and Pei Mianman were startled. "What exactly happened?"

At that moment, Jing Teng spoke up, "He's been struck by the Ghost King's Eternal Slumber Gaze. I'm currently using the Azure Dragon's power to help him resist, but I don't know how long I can keep it up."

She had sensed the hostility from the two women a moment ago, clearly a misunderstanding because she was so close to Zu An.

Realizing their unusual relationship with Zu An, she didn't want to become their target right away.

Only then did Chu Chuyan and Pei Mianman understand why she was clinging so tightly to Zu An, and their moods improved slightly.

"Eternal Slumber Gaze?" The two women exchanged glances, seeing a strange glint in each other's eyes.

Not to mention them, even the Ghost King was utterly bewildered. Hadn't these two women already fallen victim to his Eternal Slumber Gaze? How could they be here?

Could they actually have a solution? How was that possible?

Across from them, Zhao Hao frowned. The Ghost King seemed to be getting agitated, which put a lot more pressure on him.

He then roared towards them, "Stop bickering there! Quickly find a way to save him and come help!"

Such romantic entanglements truly filled him with both envy and disdain.

As the sovereign of a nation and the most powerful man in the world, he had countless beauties in his harem. Yet, in terms of quality, they probably couldn't compare to the women around Zu An.

Why?

Although his focus was on achieving immortality and he didn't pay much attention to women, as a man, these thoughts still ignited a perverse anger within him.

Rage points from Zhao Hao +444 +444 +444...

The women's faces flushed. Being exposed so bluntly by Zhao Hao, they felt a little embarrassed.

Qiu Honglei and Jing Teng quickly began explaining what the Eternal Slumber Gaze was to Chu Chuyan and Pei Mianman, but they were interrupted by the two women almost immediately.

"We know," Pei Mianman said, looking at Chu Chuyan. Both women simultaneously recalled the time they had saved each other, and a blush involuntarily appeared on their cheeks.

"You or me?" Pei Mianman asked, feeling a bit awkward.

Chu Chuyan took a deep breath. "I'll do it."

Pei Mianman's eyes widened. She had asked that question because she guessed Chu Chuyan's shy nature would make her too embarrassed to do such a thing in front of so many people. That way, she would have a legitimate reason to kiss Ah Zu herself.

Hehe, kissing their man right in front of Chu Chuyan and the other women... it was thrilling just thinking about it.

But why wasn't Chu Chuyan following the script? How could she volunteer to do it?

After all this, was she going to be overshadowed instead?

But she had just asked the question herself, so now she couldn't volunteer.

She had truly shot herself in the foot. After all that, was she the clown?

Rage points from Pei Mianman +666 +666 +666...

Seeing Pei Mianman's head almost steaming, Chu Chuyan's lips curved slightly upward. *You naive girl, did you think I wouldn't know what you were planning?*

On any other day, she might genuinely have felt embarrassed.

But in front of so many vixen-like women, if she didn't keep a closer eye on him, wouldn't Ah Zu be completely devoured by others?

She realized she had been too careless before, which was why Ah Zu was surrounded by so many women. It wouldn't happen again.

With that thought, she walked directly to Zu An's side. "Bend down."

Zu An paused, but instinctively complied.

Chu Chuyan stood on her tiptoes slightly and directly kissed him, under the shocked gazes of those around them.

Zu An's eyes widened. This didn't fit Chuyan's shy nature at all. And why was she kissing him at a time like this?

Although confused, her lips were soft, and he could feel her skillfully and enchantingly parting his lips, as a fragrant, orchid-like essence passed into him.

Zu An felt his entire body stiffen. *Since when was Chuyan so skilled?*

Jing Teng blinked, somewhat bewildered by the scene. If the voluptuous, charming, large-chested woman had done it, she would understand; it fit her first impression of her.

But this woman, as elegant as an icy fairy, how could she do something so bold... so shameless?!

Qiu Honglei had initially felt grateful for their timely arrival and her rescue, but seeing this, she felt like her lungs would explode from anger.

What was the meaning of this? Was she deliberately asserting her claim in front of her to provoke her?

"At a time like this, and you still have the nerve for this? Who's the real demonic vixen here?" Qiu Honglei's fingers cracked from clenching so hard. If not for the formidable enemy before them, she might have already attacked. *How had she never noticed Chu Chuyan was so shameless before?*

No wonder her master despised the 'Ice Maiden'; her disciple was just as loathsome!

Seeing Qiu Honglei's face flushed crimson and her hair almost standing on end, Pei Mianman sighed and had to explain for Chu Chuyan, "Don't misunderstand, Chuyan is saving him."

"Saving him like this?" Qiu Honglei asked, her face stern and disbelieving.

"We actually also..." Mid-sentence, Pei Mianman suddenly stopped. She realized that if she mentioned they had also been affected by the Eternal Slumber Gaze, it would inevitably lead to explaining how the two women had saved each other with a kiss. She couldn't bear that embarrassment, so she quickly changed her words. "We learned a secret technique that can specifically counter this Eternal Slumber Gaze."

On the other side, the Ghost King's ears perked up instantly. "How is that possible? No one should be able to undo my Eternal Slumber Gaze! Where did you learn this?"

Facing the Ghost King's increasingly violent attacks, Zhao Hao grew more and more irritated. *Damn it, why is that brat Zu An over there enjoying all the romantic bliss, while I'm getting beaten up here?*

The crucial point was that everything he was doing was to allow them to kiss in peace.

The more he thought about it, the more frustrated he became, and a surge of perverse anger flared within him.

Rage points from Zhao Hao +666 +666 +666...

With Zhao Hao blocking, the women completely ignored the Ghost King's words.

They all glared at Chu Chuyan with unfriendly expressions.

Judging by her ecstatic expression, she must have used her tongue.

And they call her a fairy untouched by worldly affairs? Hmph, she's probably tasted countless earthly salivas!

Feeling several intense gazes on her, Chu Chuyan's heart pounded. She had never done anything so bold and could only keep encouraging herself.

"I'm just healing Ah Zu, just treating him..."

After a while, however, she grew immensely puzzled. She felt an unprecedented concentration of grayish-white energy within Zu An, many times more potent than what she and Mianman had experienced.

Fortunately, with Jing Teng's Azure Dragon power and Zu An's own Primordial Chaos Qi assisting, they could barely repel the grayish-white energy. However, completely eradicating it was utterly impossible.

They knew the power of the Eternal Slumber Gaze. If it couldn't be thoroughly eliminated, it would eventually find an opportunity to erupt completely.

It was like having a ticking time bomb attached to him, posing a constant hidden danger in whatever he did.

She quickly pulled back, lips parting, and looked anxiously at Pei Mianman. "Mianman, hurry! He's too severely affected; I can't dispel it alone."

Pei Mianman was startled. She knew Chu Chuyan's character meant she would never lie. She figured that when Bao Gu imparted the Goddess's Kiss, she had given half to each of them due to insufficient energy. When they saved each other, their combined power became whole.

But to save others, half the power wasn't quite enough.

Moreover, Zu An had been struck by an enhanced version of the Eternal Slumber Gaze, used by the Ghost King with all his might.

Pei Mianman quickly jogged over. "What do we do then?"

A blush flashed across Chu Chuyan's face. "Together then, combining our strength."

Not far away, Qiu Honglei blinked. She had initially breathed a sigh of relief when their lips parted, and was now intently staring at Chu Chuyan's slightly swollen lips, thinking, *That woman really went for it.*

However, when she heard the two women's subsequent conversation, she froze completely.

What did that mean?

Pei Mianman, of course, understood what was meant. Her personality had always been more fiery and passionate than Chu Chuyan's, and since Zu An's safety was at stake, she didn't hesitate. "Alright, let's do it together."

With that, she leaned in and kissed Zu An directly on the lips.

Feeling the pressure on his chest, Zu An sighed inwardly. *It truly is my familiar Big Mianman.*

Although he knew perfectly well that the kiss was indeed to treat the Eternal Slumber Gaze, a surge of seductive warmth still rose irrepressibly within him.

For a moment, he even felt a little grateful to the Ghost King for afflicting him with this wretched Eternal Slumber Gaze.

Chu Chuyan hesitated for a moment, then, her face flushing, she leaned in, her red lips gently meeting his.

Mianman had thoughtfully left half the space for her.

Seeing the scene before her, Qiu Honglei thought: "???"

*Who am I? Where am I? What am I doing?*

These two women were brazenly assaulting her man right in front of her, and the crucial thing was she couldn't stop them because they were saving Ah Zu's life.

She was actually being... *witnessed by her husband.*

*Friends, who understands the pain in my heart?!*

Judging by how familiar these two vixen-like women were, had they perhaps formed an alliance?

Oh right, in Mingyue City, they were well-known as best friends.

No, I'm a bit outnumbered on my own. I must recruit some allies to contend with them in the future.

Who should I find?

She instinctively looked towards Jing Teng beside her.

Jing Teng, seeing Chu Chuyan and Pei Mianman kissing Zu An together at close range, felt her jaw drop in shock. She couldn't help but look at Qiu Honglei.

*This woman has been guarding against me like a thief this whole journey, yet now others are brazenly messing with your man right in front of you, and you're not doing anything about it?*

*Huh, what kind of look is that? Instead of stopping those two women, why are you staring at me?*

Suddenly, she seemed to feel an unprecedented goodwill emanating from Qiu Honglei's eyes, leaving her utterly baffled.

*What was wrong with this woman?*

*She must be a psychopath.*

For a moment, she even had the fleeting thought: *I often feel out of place among you because I'm not twisted enough.*

In the distance, the Ghost King and Zhao Hao, who had been locked in a fierce battle, simultaneously ceased their fighting. This scene had left them both speechless.
