If this were Tang Jie, he would have given Ping Jingyue a chop of the hand to knock her out.

But this was Wei Tianchong. He had puppets and shadow soldiers, but his only close-range spell was the Ghost Axe.

And because he had been taking off his clothes, he had even thrown his weapon to the side. Thus, even though he had gotten close to his foe, he had no spell that he could use.

Panicking, Wei Tianchong opened his arms and gave Ping Jingyue a big hug.

Ping Jingyue had never expected a move like this. Unable to dodge, she was seized in his embrace. The two of them rolled to the ground, Wei Tianchongs white and plump belly pressing on Ping Jingyues body. Ping Jingyue was both embarrassed and angry, wanting nothing more than to kill this scoundrel with a single chop of her palm.

She still had some sense, so she immediately gathered wind in her hand to send Wei Tianchong flying.

It had been hard for Wei Tianchong to get into this position, and he wasnt going to give her the chance to send him flying. Lowering his head, he rammed it into her chest.

Ping Jingyue grunted, and her wind sweeping spell was interrupted before it could be cast. Gnashing her teeth, she shouted, Shameless!

She brought her knee slamming into Wei Tianchongs abdomen.

The pain from this blow was so great that Wei Tianchongs face twisted.

But he knew that this was an important moment and that he couldnt relax. Otherwise, if he gave Ping Jingyue time to cast, he would be in for great suffering.

Rather than letting go, he tightened his embrace.

Seeing Ping Jingyues face turn savage as her hands began to form more signs, Wei Tianchong panicked and kneed her, but this blow struck the inner side of her thigh.

To his surprise, Ping Jingyue also grunted from this blow, and the spell was interrupted again. Her face turned ghastly pale from what seemed like spiritual energy backlash.

Wei Tianchong was startled, but then he understood. He had struck her Crouching Rabbit point.

Ping Jingyue cultivated the Crouching Rabbit Thousand Meter Mantra, and the Spirit Eye was located at the Crouching Rabbit point. This was the nexus of spiritual energy circulation, and the Crouching Rabbit belonged to the Bright Yang Foot Meridian and was located on the inner thigh. Thus, when the Spirit Eye circulated energy, spiritual energy would first flow through the legs, advantaging Wind-type spells and kicks.

The Spirit Eye was a crucial node for any cultivator, and it would remain a weakness until one cultivated their way to Celestial Heart.

It was just that cultivators normally kept the mantra that they cultivated a secret, and their opponents were usually outsiders, with neither side knowing who cultivated what, allowing their weaknesses to remain hidden. Moreover, cultivators would also pay attention to their own safety, and the Spirit Eye was itself extremely small, and there were few who specifically targeted it Those capable of such a feat were better served just cutting off the head.

But this situation was different. Ping Jingyue and Wei Tianchong were not mortal enemies, and they didnt need to kill each other. Attacking the Spirit Eye was much more effective than attacking other lethal points.

Wei Tianchong delightedly realized this and began to heedlessly attack Ping Jingyues Crouching Rabbit point. In his haste, he couldnt pin down exactly where it was, so he decided to reach down with his hand.

The Crouching Rabbit point was on the inner thigh, and Ping Jingyue realized to her horror that Wei Tianchongs large hand was fumbling around between her legsa fact that left her both enraged and humiliated.

She wanted to fight back, but to her surprise, Wei Tianchong really did manage to find the Crouching Rabbit point. With a press of that fat hand, spiritual energy surged out, rushing into Ping Jingyues body and upsetting her circulation.

The turmoil was such that Ping Jingyue couldnt cast a single spell and her entire body felt weak. She was rendered completely powerless while the half-naked Wei Tianchong continued to straddle her body, his hand tightly holding her inner thigh.

It was a sight that could make one vomit in disgust.

Wei Tianchong still didnt realize what was going on and continued to struggle atop Ping Jingyues body. Afraid that she might break free and deal with him at any moment, he put his everything into it, his body even occasionally arching, like he really was working a womans body.

After a few moments, he suddenly realized that there was no reaction.

In shock, Wei Tianchong looked down at Ping Jingyue and saw that she was crying.

Crying!

She was crying?

Wei Tianchong was dumbfounded.

Despite his enormously slow reaction speed, he had finally realized how inappropriate this scene was.

After some thought, he tried to draw back his hand. Uh sorry I didnt do it on purpose. I Im going to take away my hand now, but you have to promise to not hit me.

Ping Jingyue stared at him, not saying a word.

Wei Tianchong cautiously stood up and slowly withdrew the hand that had groped around between Ping Jingyues thighs for so long. Ping Jingyue moved a little, and Wei Tianchong instinctively grabbed again in fear, pressing his hand down on her inner thigh.

You Ping Jingyue furiously stared at him.

That wasnt on purpose! Wei Tianchong shouted. You have to promise not to hit me!

Let go! Ping Jingyue shouted between clenched teeth. Do you think you can hold it for the rest of your life?

Wei Tianchong thought about it and realized that this was true, so he helplessly took back his hand.

He had by now accepted his fate, thinking to himself, Hit me if you want. I have the Fearless spell if I need it. Thus, he squatted down while covering his head, muttering, Just dont hit me in the face.

But despite waiting for a while, he got no reaction.

Raising his head, he saw that Ping Jingyue had stood up and was frostily glaring at him.

Wei Tianchongs heart trembled as Ping Jingyue coldly said, Mention what happened today to no one.

Wei Tianchong dumbly nodded, and then there was a flash as Ping Jingyue flew into the sky and left.

Are you really not hitting me? Wei Tianchong muttered, baffled.

He suddenly realized something. Raising his hands, he recalled the sensation of grabbing Ping Jingyues inner thigh and instantly became intoxicated.

It really felt nice. Wei Tianchong became lost in his fantasies, dumbly standing there and giggling to himself.

Ping Jingyue burned with rage as she rushed back in the direction she had come.

She had thought more than once about going back and killing that damned bastard.

But when she thought about the duty she had been burdened with and the consequences her sudden impulse might trigger, Ping Jingyue managed to restrain herself.

She could only run as fast as possible to flee that place of her humiliation. She had nowhere to vent her rage, so she could only express it by running as hard as she could.

Until three people appeared in front of her.

It was Yang Zhiyuan, Li Yijing, and Liang Shengxian.

Yang Zhiyuan and Li Yijing had originally planned to chase Wei Tianchong, but because of Tang Jies interference, Ping Jingyue had been able to leave first. She was already faster than them, and now that she had left early, they had decided that since they couldnt catch up to Ping Jingyue, they should go after Shi Meng.

Seeing that the three of them were coming back, Ping Jingyue stopped and shouted, What about Shi Meng?

The three of them were scared by her intimidating appearance. They exchanged glances before Yang Zhiyuan replied, We caught him just now and searched him, but we didnt find the head. What about you?

Ping Jingyue glared. Bullshit! You need to ask? There was nothing!

So it has to be on Tang Jie then.

Tang Jie didnt have it, Liu Hongyan said as her group of three ran over, reuniting the seven of them.

How could that be? Li Yijing asked in shock. It wasnt on any three of them? Then wheres the head?

They must have hidden it somewhere, probably close by, Shu Mingyang said.

That will make things difficult. Liu Hongyan frowned. If Tang Jies group had really hidden the head, then it could have been hidden anywhere within the surrounding one thousand meters. Searching this area would not be easy.

And in that time, Tang Jies group could pick up the head and flee.

Privately, Liu Hongyan wondered if one of the other four had found the head and claimed that they hadnt found it.

But Yang Zhiyuans group had moved as three, so it would be hard for them to hide anything from each other. Ping Jingyue, however, had come back alone, and had a rather strange look on her face. Could it be

As she thought this, she looked at Ping Jingyue.

Seemingly thinking the same thing, the others all turned to look at Ping Jingyue.

Ping Jingyues mind was still lingering on that incident. When she realized that everyone was weirdly staring at her, she asked in surprise, What are you all looking at me for?

She instantly realized, and she sharply said, You think Im hiding Lin Langs head? Are you crazy?

Liu Hongyan hurriedly said, Little Sis Jingyue, dont misunderstand. I just want to ask: when you caught up to Wei Tianchong, did you search him thoroughly? After all, hes a man, so its not very proper for a woman to search him, and there are inevitably some places that cant be searched

She had been trying to give Ping Jingyue a way out, but her words ended up agitating Ping Jingyue, who instantly paled and backed away. I said before that that stubborn fatty didnt have the head. If you dont believe me, go and find him yourself. Dont go asking me. If I wanted to fool you, I would have just left. With my speed, do you really think any of you could have caught me?

Snorting, she turned and left.

Li Yijing muttered, Thats what you say, but marathons arent just about speed, but endurance too.

Ping Jingyue grimaced. Li Yijing, what are you trying to say?

Li Yijing replied, Your reaction is strange. You must be hiding something!

Ping Jingyue shuddered and then shouted, Bullshit!

When she saw that no one was speaking up for her, her heart went cold. You dont believe me?

Liang Shengxian grunted, If you want us to believe you, its simple. Dont you have a Mustard Seed Bag? Let us take a look at it.

I dont! Ping Jingyue shrieked.

No, you do! Li Yijing sneered. Ping Jingyue, dont think that youre so good that youre able to keep it from everybody. You normally dont use a weapon, making everyone think that youre poor and dont have the extra resources to buy spell weapons, but what you dont know is that Im on good terms with a student who works at Heaven One Pavilion. I found out half a year ago that one of the spell arts you picked out was a weapon art, the Heart Questioning Sword! If you didnt have a weapon, why would you take the Heart Questioning Sword? And if you have a weapon, why dont you use it? And where are you hiding it?

This string of questions had Ping Jingyue shaking. You were spying on me?

Thats not something you need to worry about. First, take out your Mustard Seed Bag so we can take a look, Li Yijing smugly said.

Ping Jingyue furiously shot back, In your dreams!

Her Mustard Seed Bag held many secrets, and there was no way she could show it to the others.

Fortunately, Yang Zhiyuan stepped forward and said, Jeez, were all on the same side, so why are we arguing? We dont even have the head yet, but were already starting to fracture. Thats simply no good. Moreover, when we agreed to work together, didnt we say that while we would fight against each other, we wouldnt try to hurt each others feelings? Theres no need for us to get upset over something like this; am I right?

He turned to look at Ping Jingyue.

Ping Jingyue sighed in relief and nodded. Whether you believe me or not

Before she could finish, Yang Zhiyuan suddenly shot up to her and thrust his palm into her back.
