The Peerless Beauty Stuck With Me

Tang Rao indeed felt awkward, but there was nothing he could do about it. What else, leave directly? To tell the truth, he was quite reluctant to part with Natasha, as he had come to consider her a very good friend during this time.

Parting ways like this was simply too hard for him to accept.

"Xiao Xuan, awkwardness isn't scary. What's scary is not even having the chance to be awkward, you get me?" Tang Rao asked.

"Not really." Li Shengxuan shook her head. These words were so convoluted and strange, how could she possibly understand them.

"Fine, if you don't get it, just let it be and rest." Tang Rao didn't bother to explain further, figuring Li Shengxuan probably wouldn't get it. After all, she was from the Land of Immortals and had a limited understanding of some artistic things.

...

Time passed by just like that, neither Soul Capture Pavilion nor Giant Merchant Star continued the battle, probably feeling it was meaningless to go on.

However, both Soul Capture Pavilion and the outer realm mad demons didn't leave and just stationed themselves around Giant Merchant Star.

On the other hand, Natasha mostly left in the morning and then came back late at night. Tang Rao hardly saw her a few times over the course of several days. She was clearly avoiding Tang Rao; if you can't see her, you can't really do much about it.

"Xiao Hei benefactor, I'm so bored." In the courtyard, Li Shengxuan lay sprawled out, looking like she had lost all zest for life.

Tang Rao didn't answer Li Shengxuan. Nonsense, of course you'd be bored.

It was like playing a videogame, dressed in top-tier divine gear in a newbie village, was there any point? Absolutely none.

"Tang Rao…" But at that moment, Tang Rao's Illusion City suddenly rang, obviously, it was Yan Wei.

Only this guy would dare to connect directly without asking for permission.

"Why can't you signal before talking? You always start speaking directly, don't you find that creepy?" Tang Rao muttered. But he knew his words were probably in vain, Yan Wei definitely wouldn't listen.

"I've got an important thing to tell you," Yan Wei said.

"Say it."

"Xue Xing knows that you know," Yan Wei said something quite convoluted.

But Tang Rao immediately understood.

Xue Xing had found out that he knew about the possession mark.

"Damn it, how did he find out?" Tang Rao cursed, and he became tense all over.

If Xue Xing activated the possession mark at this time, he might very well be done for.

Even Li Shengxuan couldn't remove the possession mark, which was really troublesome.

"I'm not too clear on the details, I just know he's aware," Yan Wei said.

"Alright, I got it. By the way, what's going on with Li Yuze?" Tang Rao asked, he had already informed Yan Wei of the situation regarding Li Yuze and Mei Fanghua.

Yan Wei had also been keeping tabs on them.

"Mei Fanghua's strength is rising very quickly, Li Yuze probably can hardly suppress her anymore," Yan Wei said.

"Mm, tell Li Yuze to withdraw, it should be about time," Tang Rao said.

"Alright, I'll contact him."

After the discussion ended, Tang Rao hung up, his expression somewhat grave.

"Xiao Hei benefactor, what's wrong? You look as if you're about to die," Li Shengxuan next to him noticed Tang Rao's expression and asked.

"I'm about to die," Tang Rao responded, "The person who placed the possession mark on me knows."

Hearing Tang Rao's words, Li Shengxuan immediately became tense.

"Sheng Xuan, is there really nothing you can do about this thing?" Tang Rao sighed, feeling somewhat helpless. Li Shengxuan was a Nine-fold Immortal Monarch, yet even a cultivator of this strength couldn't deal with the possession mark, it was truly desperate.

"No," Li Shengxuan shook her head. "The mark has already fused with your Divine Sense. Forcibly removing it would cause severe damage to your Divine Sense. By then, even if you don't die, you'd be almost crippled."

It seemed that he could only rely on himself now.

"I need to reach Great Perfection in a short time," Tang Rao says to Li Shengxuan, his expression weighed down with seriousness.

"It will affect your future cultivation," Li Shengxuan frowns and speaks, Tang Rao's talent is superb. In Li Shengxuan's view, as long as he continues his cultivation at a steady pace, it is possible for Tang Rao to reach the ninth level of Immortal Monarch and perhaps even become an Immortal Emperor.

But forcibly boosting one's strength will cause irreversible damage to his talent.

If the damage is significant, he might not even reach the Immortal Monarch level.

"Forget it, if I get possessed, nothing will matter anyway," Tang Rao says.

"That's not necessarily true," Li Shengxuan suddenly speaks, "The possession imprint actually targets the Divine Sense. When the other party attempts to possess, they will use the imprint's power to suppress your Divine Sense. This way, they can march right in and then destroy your Divine Sense and take over your body."

"So you're saying, as long as my Divine Sense can resist the imprint's suppression, it will be fine?" Tang Rao's eyes light up.

"Correct," nods Li Shengxuan, "but the suppressing power of the imprint is formidable; the opponent is already at the pinnacle of Half-step Great Perfection. Unless you reach the true Great Perfection Realm, only then can your Divine Sense compete against it."

"So, I still need to reach Great Perfection!" Tang Rao is about to slam down a stool in frustration, Xiao Xuanxuan, what are you doing at a time like this, still in the mood to tease me.

"No, it's Divine Sense Great Perfection!" Li Shengxuan corrects him.

"Can you help me reach Divine Sense Great Perfection?" Tang Rao's hope is rekindled.

"No, I don't have any Spiritual Medicines that enhance Divine Sense on hand," Li Shengxuan shakes her head.

"Sheng Xuan, are you messing with me on purpose!" Tang Rao shouts.

"Benefactor Xiao Hei, come into my body," Li Shengxuan suddenly says.

Pffft!

Tang Rao nearly spits blood, Sheng Xuan, at such a critical moment of life and death, it's you who truly care for me. Knowing that I'm a little C male, still thinking of making me happy.

You're truly my best follower.

"Xiao Xuanxuan, should we... maybe go to the room for this?" Tang Rao asks.

"No need, right here is fine," Li Shengxuan says.

Tang Rao: "..."

"In the courtyard, isn't that a bit too much? Look, there's nothing to hide us. Although it's thrilling, you know, it's my first time, and it's inevitable I might be a little uneasy," Tang Rao says.

"It's also my first time, come on! It's a small matter!" Li Shengxuan sits upright.

"You people from the Land of Immortals have such wild tastes..." Tang Rao mutters.

"Tang Rao, Xue Xing is here!" the voice of Yan Wei suddenly rings inside Tang Rao's mind, instantly shattering the mood he had been brewing.

Dammit.

"Sheng Xuan, he's here!" Tang Rao yells out.

"Then hurry up, occupy my sea of consciousness with your Divine Sense. I've already cleared my sea of consciousness, hurry up, this way we still have a shot," Li Shengxuan immediately says.

Huh?

Tang Rao looks dumbfounded, so that's what it is? And here I thought it was something else...

But Tang Rao doesn't waste any time babbling, he charges straight into Natasha's room.

Inside, Natasha abruptly looks up at Tang Rao.

"Protect my body!" Tang Rao shouts, as his Divine Sense leaves his body and his physical form collapses to the ground with a boom, inside the room.

"Xiao Hei!" Natasha is startled and rushes forward to help Tang Rao up.

"In critical moments, you can always discern a lot," Tang Rao's Divine Sense notices Natasha's anxiety, and instantly his mood brightens.

"Hurry up!" outside, Li Shengxuan shouts loudly.
