“My name is Ma Qian. How should I address this beautiful lady?” Ma Qian introduced himself.
There was no response, only the young woman kept staring at him. Ma Qian felt a tremble in his soul, because the young woman was actually scanning his cultivation.
“You must be an outsider, how did you come in?” the young woman asked.
“Are…..are you a ghost or are you for real?” Ma Qian ignored the question and asked something else. He wanted to ask this question ever since he saw her, but couldn’t hold back anymore. The young woman could only smile.
“What do you think?” the young woman responded but showed a devilish smile in return.
“Ghosttttt!” Ma Qian yelled in response. He already turned around and ran as fast as he could without looking back. He continued yelling, “Ye Tian, monk, Lin Yang help me!”
The young woman was shocked. She had never seen such a coward before. She didn’t want to lose this lifetime opportunity, so she could only wryly smile as this was the first visitor she has met after a very long time. She started chasing him, then yelled, “Wait!”
“Screw you!” Ma Qian ignored her and continued running like hell.
The young woman started moving her hand forming a spirit formation.
Boom!
The spirit formation trapped Ma Qian inside in the shape of a dome. Ma Qian tried to use his own spirit formation to break through but it was far more complex than anything he had ever seen. He’s read many books on spirit formation and practiced it often. If he displayed his skills to the world, he would already be considered among the top tiers of spirit breakers.
“You can have my virginity but not my life!” Ma Qian pleaded. Of course, he wasn’t a virgin anymore. Those older sisters had “helped” him in the brothel he was living in with his Aunt.
The young woman frowned. Her temper increasingly became worse. She judged Ma Qian to be a no good person, but she didn’t really have a choice at this point in time.
“I need your help…” the young woman said to Ma Qian, who was still using different formations to break through the dome formation.
“Ye Tian help me! What? You want me to make a map? That’s easy. What? you want my virginity. Fine, it’s a done deal! Stupid monk, where are you?” Ma Qian kept on yelling trying to buy as much time as he could. He didn’t realize that the formation he was in actually trapped any noises inside, so no one could hear from the outside except the young woman.
“Listen to what I have to say first, you little imbecile!” the young woman furiously yelled.
Of course, Ma Qian was ignoring anything she said, because he was yelling at the same time. A thought came to his mind.
“If I can’t get out, then let me see if you can,” Ma Qian whispered.
He started chanting some words while moving his hands quickly. Boom! A pyramid spirit formation appeared and trapped the young woman inside!
“Hmmmm, pretty clever! I thought you were just a dimwit,” the young woman smiled. Although she was inside Ma Qian’s spirit formation, she did not panic. She started moving her hands quickly to break the spirit formation, but after a minute or so , she couldn’t break through. She vehemently stared at Ma Qian, who she greatly underestimated.
Ma Qian knew the young woman’s spirit formation was very powerful and her understanding of spirit formations was much higher than his.
Two minutes later, the young woman still couldn’t break through. Three minutes, four minutes, five, six, seven , ten, fifteen minutes! The reason she couldn’t break through was because Ma Qian was also changing the spirit formation every time she got close to breaking through. Ma Qian knew that sooner or later, she would break through, he was just buying some time until the others got here. But he was also in awe because of the speed the young woman was able to break through his own formations.

Suddenly the young woman stopped. She continued to stare at Ma Qian, but suddenly said something.
“Stop this childish game. You know I can break it sooner or later.”
“You fool! I’m way too good for you. Ye Tian help me!” Ma Qian pretended to be confident, then screamed again for help.
“You idiot!……They can’t hear you!”
“You think you’re good. I’m pretty damn good too. Hahaha….Lin Yang dammit” Ma Qian continued speaking nonsense.
They were both acting childish. Since they were inside each other’s spirit formation, no one outside could hear what they were saying. To make it worse, they couldn’t even hear each other because their formation was shielding the noises inside. Fortunately, the young woman noticed this much earlier, then started pointing at the formation to Ma Qian while holding her ear. Ma Qian wasn’t a fool, he also realized it after the young woman gave some hint.
They both dispelled the sound barrier but the formation was still there.
“Ma Qian, listen first! I’m not here to kill you. I need your help,” the young woman straightforwardly said before Ma Qian starts yelling again.
There was no response from Ma Qian.
“I’m not a ghost, but I’m not real either. Let me explain,” the young woman continued to speak because there was no response from Ma Qian.
“You’re a demon!” Ma Qian almost started to scream again, but the young woman quickly yelled, “No, I’m not idiot! Listen first.”
“I’m a….. spirit. I once lived in this city but our kingdom had a war against an empire and several other kingdoms. As you can see, we lost the war. That’s why you don’t see anyone else living here. Before my body was gone, I split my soul into two soul sparks, one went inside into one of our sparrows, our family’s symbol. The other tried to flee into an altar but it was caught by one of our enemies. I don’t know where it is but I can still sense it still exist within this city. I don’t know how long I’ve been here, but I can’t leave here without the other soul merging with me. This is where I need your help in finding my other soul spark.”
Ma Qian was still quiet, which sparked the young woman’s anger.
“Hey, did you listen to me or what?” the young woman spoke again impatiently, this time her hands were on her waist.
Ma Qian was still looking around to see if any of his friends already came or not. He was still trying to buy some time by not answering her. He had another idea, so he started making hand gestures to the young woman. The young woman of course didn’t understand.
“I don’t understand, speak up,” she said.
Nevertheless, Ma Qian continued to make hand gestures pretending that he couldn’t speak. The young woman was now extremely angry.
“You idiot, you just yelled out to your friends. Don’t pretend. You’re the worst person I’ve ever met, even your mom would be ashamed of you,” she countered back with the intention to rile him up.
“Hey! Don’t mention about my mom, little girl! You don’t know me!,” Ma Qian angrily replied. He fell both for her trap and his own recent trap on pretending not to speak. The young woman finally smiled, now they’re getting somewhere after so many delays by Ma Qian.
“Did you hear my story or not? Can you help me? If you can, I will help you obtain some ancient lost arts and treasures,” the young woman asked again.
“I did hear it, but I don’t believe it. Besides, I’m not interested in ancient treasures or arts. I’m already rich, so goodbye,” Ma Qian replied and started turning back.
“Wait! Tell me what do you want then?” she asked with a sense of desperation. Ma Qian stopped his footsteps, then turned back to look at her with a devious look.
“Hmmm, that’s a hard one. I’m sure you won’t accept my demands.”
“Say it first, then I’ll consider it. I can probably offer you things that most people can’t.”
“Fine then. I want all the ancient treasures and art, I also need something that could significantly increase my cultivation, and……I want a kiss…”
The young woman could only frown by Ma Qian’s demands, especially the last request.
“I can get you everything but the kiss.”
“No can do, every single one has to be accepted. If not, goodbye then.”
“Fine, fine…..but only on the cheek.”
“Hmmm…okay deal. Give me the kiss first as a down payment, then I’ll believe you.”
The young woman could only sigh. She was finally able to make a deal with him at a price of a kiss on the cheek. She thought to herself that it’s not a big deal. For the price of freedom, it’s worth it. She closed in on Ma Qian until she was a few inches away from him. She moved forward intending to kiss him on the cheek. Her breathing became unusually unstable.
*Smooooochhhhh*
Ma Qian turned his face quickly where his lips actually touched the young woman’s lips. It was not just a kiss, Ma Qian’s kiss had a little bit of suction power that was sucking lightly on her lips. Such a despicable person. He never believed any of her words to begin with, and he also believed that he was going to die, so he might as well get something out of it, even if it came from a beautiful demon or a ghost! Don’t die with every regret hanging on your mind to the very last minute, die with the fewest regret…
Baam!!!!
Ma Qian crashed to the floor violently by the young woman’s twin palm. Her aura grew like a wild devil with the intent to kill without mercy.
What will happen to Ma Qian after his despicable act?
