Nine Revolutions Star Transformation-Chapter 236 - 235: Meng Ji’s Enchanting Fragrance

Chu Linfeng looked at Meng Ji with a face full of surprise, unable to believe that such words could come from her mouth.

"Hehe, surprised, aren’t you? Actually, I knew from the moment you first entered with the Ice Flame Crystal. I was just curious, so I didn’t say anything," Meng Ji said with a smile.

Chu Linfeng was momentarily bewildered. This Meng Ji was truly formidable. Could it be that she even knew my identity? Doubt began to creep into his mind.

"How did you know?" Chu Linfeng asked.

"Why should I tell you? Although you haven’t given a direct answer, I’ve already gotten the answer I wanted." After saying this, Meng Ji drank the wine in her cup through her veil in one go.

Seeing her happy expression, Chu Linfeng felt displeased. Since you’re not talking, I’ll surprise you in return.

He then laughed, "It’s indeed surprising you know so much. However, a woman with a Demon Yin Body is as rare as one in ten thousand. Have you ever seen one?"

This sentence left Meng Ji stunned for a moment, and after a long time, she asked, "What did you just say?"

"Demon Yin Body. How do these four words sound to your ears? Aren’t you very astonished?" Chu Linfeng laughed, thinking if you don’t say it, I won’t either. Let’s see who could remain steady.

Meng Ji once again gave Chu Linfeng a thorough look. This young man already gave her a sense of being extraordinary, and now that he knew about the Demon Yin Body, he seemed even more so.

Those who know about her physique number less than five, and they are all at the Peak of the Divine Martial Realm. Yet, this guy, who at most is only at the Celestial Martial Realm, could tell that she is of the Demon Yin Body — it was uncanny.

"You know about the Demon Yin Body?" Meng Ji asked, but didn’t directly say you know I am the Demon Yin Body.

"Since you know about the Pure Yang Body, why can’t I know about the Demon Yin Body?" Chu Linfeng smiled.

"Tell me, how do you know?" Meng Ji couldn’t resist asking. This was quite important to her.

"I’ll only tell you when you are willing to say how you know that I am the Pure Yang Body," Chu Linfeng said with a roguish look that made Meng Ji want to hit him.

"Take your time eating! I’m leaving. Tomorrow’s auction is at the Wenqin Auction House. I’ll have someone escort you there." After saying this, Meng Ji prepared to leave.

"You’re not accompanying me tomorrow?" Chu Linfeng asked.

Meng Ji’s expression changed to anger as she said, "What did you say?"

"Nothing, if you’re not coming then that’s that. Thank you for the good wine and gracious hospitality!" Chu Linfeng said and continued eating alone.

Early the next morning, the woman who had brought him in arrived. Chu Linfeng had already finished his practice by then. "Where’s my friend?"

"He’s already waiting for you outside. Please follow me," the woman said.

"Is it you who will escort us to the Wenqin Auction House?" Chu Linfeng asked in surprise.

"The Master instructed me to take you there. As for other matters, I’m not aware," the woman said politely. It was obvious the one instructed by the Master was no ordinary person.

"Lin Feng, don’t underestimate her. This woman has at least the strength of the Fifth Layer of Celestial Martial, enough to protect you," Sword Spirit said at this time.

Once again, Chu Linfeng was surprised. Damn, any random woman here is a martial expert of the Celestial Martial Realm, even reaching the Fifth Layer — has the Celestial Martial Realm become so common?

Throughout the journey, Chu Linfeng kept observing the surroundings to see if anyone was tailing or monitoring them, but found no evidence.

When they arrived at the Wenqin Auction House entrance, the woman said, "Please enter, young master. I won’t be joining you. Today is Wenqin’s auction, and tomorrow is Pingwu’s. The final day is a joint auction by the two houses."

"Where is the final day’s auction held? This time it’s our turn at Pingwu, it was Wenqin last time," the young woman respectfully answered.

"Then I won’t go. Let’s head back. The items on these first two days probably aren’t what I need," Chu Linfeng said, thinking it would’ve been better if he had stayed back to cultivate.

The young woman said nothing, as Chu Linfeng was a VIP; she dared not offend him, so she responded according to Chu Linfeng’s will to Pingwu Auction House.

"Brother Wei, just stay here for the next couple of days, eat well and sleep well. Don’t go out or look for me. We’ll leave when this auction ends," Chu Linfeng said.

Wei Qun initially wanted to ask why he was returning again, but the words remained stuck in his throat.

"Prepare me a separate room. I need two days of practice, and nobody should disturb me except the Master," Chu Linfeng told the woman.

Subsequently, Chu Linfeng was taken to a very beautiful room, filled with a faint aroma of rouge, clearly indicating it was a lady’s boudoir.

Just as he wanted to ask whose room it was, the woman had already closed the door and left.

"Who cares whose room it is, as long as it isn’t hers. Cultivation is the priority!" He then sat on the bed and began to absorb Star Power from the Star Stone.

Meanwhile, Meng Ji was speaking to a middle-aged woman named Hong Gu. The woman who had brought Chu Linfeng back entered and said, "Master, everything has been arranged as you instructed. He is now in your boudoir."

"You may leave," Meng Ji said.

"Miss, why arrange him in your boudoir? This might harm your reputation. Old servant doesn’t understand why you treat him so well, could it be you fancy the boy?" Hong Gu asked.

"Hong Gu, what nonsense are you spouting? This kid has too many secrets and is extremely cunning. If you ask him directly, he certainly won’t tell the truth. But if we use the Soul Collection Technique on him, his strength is too weak, he’d probably kick the bucket before he’s done answering.

My room has an Enchanting Fragrance. As long as he stays inside for a day, he will obediently tell me the truth. Once I learn his identity and background, he won’t have much use left," Meng Ji laughed.

"I understand now. I just didn’t see what’s so extraordinary about him. Did you discover something, Miss?" Hong Gu asked.

"He gives me the feeling of a sleeping lion, once awake, he’ll be formidable. Also, he naturally has the Pure Yang Body, yet hides his Pure Yang Qi very deeply. And most notably, he knew about my Charm Art," Meng Ji said.

At this moment, Chu Linfeng was entirely focused on absorbing the Star Power from the Star Stone in his hand, oblivious to any potential danger in the room.

Inside, the Chaos Qi was wildly circulating, repeatedly compressing within the Earth Star Pill. He felt that he was not far from breaking through to the Sixth Layer.

Soon, a day had passed, and Chu Linfeng was still engrossed in absorbing the Star Power. At this time, Sword Spirit’s voice came through.

"Lin Feng, stop immediately. There’s something amiss with this room. Have you noticed?"

Chu Linfeng gradually calmed the Chaos Qi and asked, "Sister Yue’Er, I didn’t feel anything odd, just that the fragrance here is somewhat distracting."

"Exactly, it’s the fragrance. It seems to be made from Enchanting Grass, which over time can cause people to have hallucinations, even faint. The scariest part is, after fainting, the answers given are all the truth," Sword Spirit said.

"Damn! I almost fell for this guy’s trick. She must want to know my secrets. What should I do?" Chu Linfeng asked.

"There doesn’t seem to be any medication to counteract it, but you could go outside to get some air, which might alleviate the symptoms."

Chu Linfeng was delighted and immediately had an idea, "You want to know my secrets, let’s see how I fool you!" He then walked out of the room...
