Family Cultivation: My entire family are Villains-Chapter 498 - 236. Possess the body, or seize the heart _2

As Hou Zhan put it, the people who had attacked her must be from the Chen Family of Yunmeng. She held no recent grievances or long-standing feuds with the Chen Family, so why would they target her? Moreover, Hou Zhan defended Yunmeng and commanded tens of thousands of troops. How could he be pursued to the outskirts by a mere second-rate Chen Family?

Right, he had said he took only top warriors in his hasty decision to eradicate the Chen Family and consequently fell into their ambush.

"So, you were injured while trying to save me?"

A hint of suspicion in Zhao Qingxue’s eyes had faded as she looked at Hou Zhan’s pale face and quietly inquired further.

A thrill of secret delight surged through Hou Zhan’s heart. Feigning severity of his injuries while appearing indifferent, he waved his hand and said, "A minor injury is nothing to worry about, Miss Zhao."

"Then, the Chen Family’s elite are still after us. May I ask, Young Master Hou, why would the Chen Family want to harm me?"

Hou Zhan timely showed a look of confusion, pausing before saying, "This... I am not sure either. Does Miss Zhao possess something unique?"

Zhao Qingxue furrowed her brows, about to speak, when suddenly an inexplicable urge surged from her abdomen, spreading to her limbs, and instantly her cheeks blushed deeply.

As this feeling intensified, a golden talisman in her Sea of Consciousness shone brightly, noticeably clearing the overwhelming urge. It slowly sank from her mind, significantly reducing the bizarre reaction of her body.

Thankfully, I have the protective Spirit Talisman my master gave me, otherwise...

This must be... an aphrodisiac!

Zhao Qingxue, realizing the anomaly within her, felt her recently diminished vigilance surge again. She saw Hou Zhan staring at her, a fleeting cunningness in his eyes. She didn’t try to control her bodily state and allowed her blushing and her body’s abnormal twisting to continue.

"This... what is happening to me..."

Seeing the flush on Zhao Qingxue’s face and her trembling voice, Hou Zhan’s heart filled with joy, though he maintained an ignorant façade and stepped forward slightly, asking softly, "Miss Zhao, what’s wrong?"

Zhao Qingxue’s eyes misted, and her tone became noticeably softer and more charming. Frantically and seemingly scared, she said, "It must be the Chen Family, they must have drugged me. How could this happen, how could this..."

Hou Zhan’s face showed "shock", and he moved a few steps closer, angrily saying, "The Chen Family, daring to tarnish Miss Zhao’s purity! Rest assured, Miss Zhao, once I return to the city, I will personally lead my troops and exterminate the Chen Family!"

As Hou Zhan spoke, he visibly moved closer to her on purpose, causing Zhao Qingxue’s eyes to momentarily flash with a cold gleam.

Meanwhile, Hou Zhan’s heart surged with joy, but he still maintained a righteous expression as he approached Zhao Qingxue, resolutely explaining, "Do not worry, Miss Zhao, I would never take advantage of someone in peril. Let me try using my True Qi to see if I can dispel the effects of the drug!"

If I could just touch her, and then stimulate with True Qi, the drug’s effect would fully unleash, and then this woman would be begging me...

Looking at his hand, now less than a meter from Zhao Qingxue’s back, Hou Zhan was internally screaming in excitement. He was well aware of the potency of the Green Jade Pill, an aphrodisiac only resistible by extraordinarily powerful beings. Once he made contact, Zhao Qingxue wouldn’t be able to withstand the drug’s power.

While he internally screamed, he failed to notice the chill in Zhao Qingxue’s eyes intensifying, and her grip on the sword tightening.

Clap clap clap...

Suddenly, the sound of clapping from the beam above interrupted Hou Zhan, which also startled Zhao Qingxue. She looked up and her eyes immediately showed a trace of joy.

"Who dares skulk about here!"

Hou Zhan looked up to see two malicious Azure Dragon masks, spotting two individuals on the beam above. Initially startled, he soon realized he hadn’t detected their presence at all, and sensing they might have been hiding there all along, a chill ran down his spine as he barked sharply.

"Second Dragon Head of the Qinglong Association, Fang Longxiang, greets the Second Young Master."

"Third Dragon Head, Fang Jinghong."

Hearing the two names, Hou Zhan pondered for a moment, his pupils slightly constricted.

The Qinglong Association, in the Demon Path, was notorious. Colluding with a third-tier demon during the massive disturbance in Tongling that led to over a million deaths, even high powers had surfaced, and the names Fang Longxiang and Fang Jinghong had become well-known.

Since the death of the third-tier demon in Tongling, it had been almost a year since the Qinglong Association had made movements in the martial world. Unexpectedly, Hou Zhan encountered them now, and especially at this moment, his face momentarily showed a hint of sinister intent. Moreover, realizing that he couldn’t sense the presence of his four bodyguards outside, his gaze became even darker.

"I don’t recall ever offending your association. May I ask why you are seeking me out?"

This is to quell the disturbance peacefully!

Hou Yuxiao, with a slightly lowered gaze and a tone laced with disdain, said, "Young Master Hou, pursuing a woman should be done openly and with integrity, using such tricks not only degrades one’s character but is also unsightly. We just happened to pass by today. If you leave now, we will pretend nothing happened, how about that?"

Hou Zhan’s face revealed a trace of annoyance. Their words clearly indicated that they had seen everything, and he felt so guilty that he dared not look at Zhao Qingxue beside him. His eyes darkened as he stared at Hou Yuxiao and the other person.
