"Don't chase me anymore! Please, let me go!"

A man in a blue robe flew hastily among the mountains. He was quite handsome, but his face was pale, his breaths came in ragged intervals, and sweat poured from his forehead. As he glanced back and saw four women hot on his heels, his face turned ashen.

"Young Master, why are you leaving after just a year?"

"Yes, did we not serve you well?"

The man trembled in fear and shouted, "You served me too well! I can't handle it! Ladies, please find someone else! I, Xiao Zian, am not fortunate enough to bear this!"

"Hmph!" The leading woman snorted, "I thought the disciples of the Fiery Cloud Instant Sect were fiery and passionate! Turns out you're just a coward. But we don't discriminate. Come back, stay with us for a few more years, and then we'll let you go!"

"Ridiculous!" Xiao Zian retorted, "A few more years? Would I even be alive by then?"

"Since Young Master Xiao says so, sisters, let's not hold back. Just don't harm his face or waist. Drag him back with us!"

Immediately, red sleeves danced in the air and entangled Xiao Zian. Unable to keep up due to his fatigue, he got caught. The four beautiful women laughed merrily as they pulled him closer.

"Help! Someone save me!"

Suddenly, the sky darkened as thick clouds gathered overhead. Thunder rolled within the clouds, and bolts of lightning struck the ground, followed by deafening claps of thunder.

The lightning hit right between the group. The four sisters released Xiao Zian and dispersed.

"Who is it?"

The lightning struck the ground, scattering rocks and raising clouds of dust. It seemed like there was a natural conductor within the rocks, drawing all the surrounding lightning, turning the mountain into a thunderous inferno.

As the lightning slowly dissipated, Shu Han climbed out from the shattered rocks, holding a blue-green flag that attracted lightning. He never expected that the flag he refined from thunderstones would attract so much lightning, nearly harming him in the process. As he looked up, he noticed five pairs of eyes staring intently at him.

"Uh..."

What's happening here?

Shu Han greeted them with a bow, "I apologize for the disturbance, esteemed dao fellows. I was refining a magic treasure and inadvertently summoned the lightning. If any of you were harmed, please forgive me."

At this moment, one of the women stared intently at Shu Han, leaning over to whisper in the leader's ear, "Sister, look at this young man. He's at the peak of the Foundation Establishment stage, his aura shines like a rainbow and his spirit is strong like a dragon. He's much better than that pale-faced guy. Why not take him back with us?"

The leader licked her lips, nodded, and stepped forward seductively, "Young Master, you appear talented and carry a powerful aura. Our cave is not far from here. Would you like to join us to admire the flowers under the moon and share some fine wine?"

"Don't say yes!"

Xiao Zian yelled in horror, "Friend, do not agree with these women! They're not ordinary beings! If you dare go with them, they will tempt you into dual cultivation, keeping you busy day and night, trapped in their cave with no way out until you're on the brink of death!"

"What?"

Shu Han took a deep breath, taken aback. These women seemed innocent and beautiful, but who would have expected this?

With tears and snot streaming down his face, Xiao Zian continued, "I was once lured by their temptations and deceived by these women, only finding a chance to escape now."

Shu Han knew of male cultivators taking advantage of female ones, but he hadn't expected to encounter the reverse. He marveled at the vast and unpredictable world of cultivation. He said, "I have other matters to attend to. I will join you for a drink another time, ladies. Farewell!"

With that, he turned to leave. Suddenly, four red sleeves floated in front of him, blocking his way. The leader coldly said, "Young Master, you're so heartless. After our kind invitation, you simply dismiss us. Either way, you must join us tonight, or else we will pine for you every night."

Feeling the intense gaze of the four women, Shu Han felt a chill run down his spine.

Xiao Zian flew to Shu Han's side, burning with righteous indignation, "Friend, you seem to have decent cultivation. Let's take on these four together! They are powerful, but together, perhaps we can make our way out!"

One of the women teased, "Young Master Xiao, that's not what you said to me in bed."

Xiao Zian shouted, "Shut up! I only wanted to share wine and enjoy the moonlight with you. I never expected you to want to sleep with me, and even invite your sisters! What do you take me for?"

Shu Han noticed Xiao Zian becoming more aggressive in his words, yet he was inching behind him, thinking that he probably couldn't rely on Xiao in this situation.

Using his Clear Bright Spiritual Eye, Shu Han assessed the four sisters and found they all had profound cultivation levels. The eldest one even seemed close to the later stages of cultivation.

Impressive! These women are no ordinary beings!

Feeling cornered, Shu Han clasped his hands and said, "Since the four fairies insist on taking action, I shall indulge in exchanging some moves with you."

In an instant, he surged into the air with an imposing aura like a dragon, breaking through the encirclement of the red sleeves. The four sisters exchanged glances, sensing that he was not an easy opponent. The eldest sister shouted, "Do not underestimate him! Sisters, form the 'Rainbow Garment Cloud Array'!"

"Understood!"

The four spread out around Shu Han, their flowing dresses billowing as they moved. The lengths of their sleeves and hems extended, connecting with one another, forming layers of a cage that enveloped Shu Han within.

In this reddish realm, glimpses of their fair arms and legs became visible from time to time, accompanied by an enchanting fragrance. Although trapped, the ambiance felt like a heavenly paradise.

Shu Han's brows furrowed, sensing something amiss with the array. He promptly used his Eight-Direction Evil-Breaking Sword to slash at the ever-tightening enclosures of sleeves and hems. Yet, the invincible sword seemed powerless, its blows absorbed and nullified by the waves of fabric.

His space to maneuver shrank rapidly. The seductive aroma around him intensified, and each sweeping sleeve delivered a powerful blow, causing him to sway and his spiritual power to scatter. As the pressure and collisions persisted, Shu Han's movements became increasingly limited, rendering his counterattacks ineffective.

He regretted underestimating the power of the array formed by the sleeves and hems. He had assumed them to be mere fabric, which his Eight-Direction Evil-Breaking Sword could easily cut through, yet he was increasingly ensnared.

This formation's power was on par with his Silent Heartbreak Formation! Though the actions of the four women seemed ludicrous, their powers were astonishing. He had no choice!

Calming himself, Shu Han spread his eight-winged sword-like appendages, channeling all his spiritual power into the Eight-Direction Evil-Breaking Sword. For a moment, a golden radiance emanated from within the enclosure of fabrics.

The four sisters, taken aback, stared at the golden light emanating, feeling an eerie chill.

"Evil-Breaking in hand, justice spans the land!"

Suddenly, blinding golden light emanated from the Rainbow Garment Cloud Array. A massive tear appeared in the red fabric. Shu Han, wielding the Eight-Direction Evil-Breaking Sword and spreading his eight-winged sword appendages, burst forth, appearing like a descending deity.

Seeing this, the four sisters weren't frightened. Instead, their faces flushed with admiration.

However, Shu Han wasn't in the mood for pleasantries. He snorted coldly, "Since you ladies love to play, let's test my latest formation."

In the blink of an eye, Shu Han sheathed the Eight-Direction Evil-Breaking Sword. Using the Triple Rotation Avatar Technique, he split into three, each holding a Thunder Summoning Banner, forming the seal of the Green Thunder Tribulation Technique.

Immediately, the sky thundered loudly. The raging thunder was absorbed by the Thunder Summoning Banner, transforming into a vast Thunder Prison, pressing downwards with overwhelming force.
