Chapter 258 - A Green Greener Than the Lake Water

Although it seemed like a long time had passed, in truth, it was only an instant.

Chen Changsheng and Zhexiu broke through the lake water and then they saw the drenched woman sitting on the rock in the center of the lake, combing her hair. Gawking at this scene, they felt rather silly.

However, in the woman's eyes, two heads had suddenly popped up in the middle of the lake. Naturally, this was incredibly horrifying.

With a shriek of surprise, the woman had lost her head in panic and leaped into water. Choking on the lake water, sometimes floating and sometimes sinking, the woman's beautiful appearance was filled with fear.

The lake water curled up onto her light clothes. A jade color could be faintly seen underneath the clothes.

Chen Changsheng had no time to carefully ponder about the details. He began moving his arms and swimming towards that place where she had landed.

Zhexiu said nothing, but followed behind him.

After he swam to where the woman had fallen, Chen Changsheng dived into the lake. Naturally, Chen Changsheng could not close his eyes this time. Within the lake water, the woman's clothes floated while still on her body. As she struggled in the water, her clothes also became disheveled. Chen Changsheng could see the whiteness of her neck, and could even faintly see even more alluring places.

Chen Changsheng had no reaction to all this. He thrust out his hand and took hold of her.

Having been suddenly saved, the woman instinctively came over and then tightly hugged him, like a small bear hugging a tree.

Chen Changsheng could clearly feel that his face had been buried in some place that was very plump and soft. His waist was tight in the grasp of two thighs.

This was a very rapturous position, even at such a urgent time.

If he were a normal person, he probably would have been absolutely incapable of saving anyone, and he might have even sunk down together with her.

Chen Changsheng would not. His right hand was clenched in a fist, ready at any time to come down. Perhaps he was preparing to knock this panicked woman unconscious, or perhaps it was for something else.

He held that woman and swam upwards. The woman calmed down somewhat and realized that Chen Changsheng meant her no harm and had come to save her. Because she felt embarrassed, she adjusted her posture.

She wrapped her arms around his neck and placed her face by his.

Thus, the two faces were right up close to each other.

Even in the chilly water of the lake, Chen Changsheng could still feel the warm breath that emerged from her lips and the heat that came from her body.

Zhexiu swam behind Chen Changsheng, his eyes were fixed on the woman. Previously, when he had just emerged from the lake, he had very clearly seen the insignia on the woman's waist and judged her to be a disciple from a secluded sect in the east.

However, this was not an indication of anything. He stared into her eyes, but just what he was looking for was unknown.

Finally arriving at the surface of the lake, the woman embracing Chen Changsheng's neck looked at Zhexiu. Her eyes were no longer as panicked, nor was there anything unusual about them.

This sort of calm was a problem.

Soon after, Zhexiu detected the trace of a smile in the woman's eyes.

Lady, for what reason are you smiling?

Zhexiu wanted to ask her this question, but he could not ask, because there was no time to ask.

The woman's arms were wrapped around Chen Changsheng's neck, so her fingers very naturally pressed up against the area below his earlobes.

One of the most important blood vessels was located there, as well as the meridian that was connected directly to the sea of consciousness.

If that place was punctured, even if the Pope himselfhad personally came, he would still be unable to save Chen Changsheng's life.

Without a sound, the woman's fingernails suddenly began to glow with a bewitching green color.

The blue-green of the lake water could not obscure that shade of green.

The verdant forest on the lake shore, in the face of this green, seemed to suddenly lose all color.

The woman's nails lightly pierced inward.

Nothing happened.

The woman's nails cloaked in green light were unable to pierce Chen Changsheng's neck.

As if he had sensed nothing at all, Chen Changsheng swam towards the rock in the center of lake and seemed ready to climb onto it.

The woman's fluid glance seemed to flow slightly more, like she was somewhat astonished and shocked. Putting more strength in her fingers, she once again pierced down.

…Still, nothing happened.

The woman's mind was reeling with shock, because no matter how much she thought about it, she had no idea what was happening.

The smear of green hidden in her fingernails was the one of the world's sharpest magical artifacts. As long as it was not a Star Condensation cultivator, even if the cultivator had undergone perfect purification, she still would have only required the slightest pressure to break the skin.

Moreover, that smear of green itself contained the world's most frightening poison. Even the most powerful monster, when afflicted by this poison, would not be able to hold on for long.

And yet… how was it that she was unable to pierce Chen Changsheng's skin?

At this point, Chen Changsheng finally turned his head.

They were both very close to each other, so much so that they could hear each other’s breathing and see the reflections of themselves in each other's eyes.

His eyes were very bright.

So bright that it would cause others to get flustered.

The woman looked into his eyes, looked into those eyes that shined like mirrors, and looked at her slightly pale complexion. Afterwards, something that was extraordinarily rare for her happened: she began to feel flustered.

In Xuelao City, she had made countless demon generals dance in the palm of her hand. No matter what sort of unforeseen event she had encountered, she had never been flustered.

However, this time, she was very flustered.

Chen Changsheng's eyes were very calm, without the slightest hint of ridicule.

However, she felt that she was being ridiculed, that those eyes were filled with nothing but ridicule.

She was very angry and unwilling. Her fluid gaze flowed about once more, suddenly becoming incredibly lovely and pitiful.

Her beautiful appearance, her aggrieved expression, her mature and soft body, and her innately charming demon's magic; combined, they made up an incredibly alluring sensation.

Even if Chen Changsheng's heart was made of stone, he should have felt pity. At the very least, he would not kill her immediately, even more so since he was only fifteen years old.

As long as she could make it until he turned away for a moment, then she still had a chance; that was her thinking.

Sadly, reality never agreed with the plans of humans, and the same was true for demons.

Chen Changsheng had no reaction, like he had not even seen her face. He was not affected in the slightest by her demon magic.
