A Cunning Pervert in the Cultivation World Chapter 525: Soothing Cool Warmth

"...Even though it seems like all the clues have been lost..."

Li Feng paused, then continued in a low voice.

"The mastermind would never have thought about this... that I still have one last clue left."

Yue Lan’s hands paused slightly.

"One last clue?"

Li Feng looked up at her and smiled.

He reached out, gently cupping her cool, soft cheek with his palm.

Yue Lan instinctively nuzzled into his touch, her golden eyes half-closing in quiet enjoyment as she leaned closer.

Then Li Feng said in a low voice,

"At the border, when the Rain Pavilion assassins tried to kill General Zhang... Shadow captured one of them."

Yue Lan’s eyes slowly opened wider.

Li Feng continued, his thumb lightly brushing her cheek.

"I didn’t kill her. I kept her. She’s currently sealed inside my special world treasure."

Yue Lan stared at him in genuine surprise.

"...You captured a Rain Pavilion assassin and brought her back?"

Li Feng gave a small nod.

"Mm. A gold-class one, at that. Her name is Purple Death."

Yue Lan’s expression filled with admiration for a moment.

Then a look of sudden realization crossed her face.

’No wonder...’

That night, when Li Feng had suddenly left the fortress and disappeared for a while...

So that was what he had been doing.

She continued leaning into his palm, enjoying the warmth of his hand against her cool skin, but her golden eyes remained thoughtful.

"...Is she the clue you mentioned?"

Li Feng’s smile turned a little colder.

"She might be. Even if she doesn’t know the full identity of the mastermind, a gold-class assassin from the Rain Pavilion should at least know who hired them... or what the real goal of attack or plague was."

Li Feng sat back up and looked at Yue Lan with a smile.

Without hesitation, he leaned in and captured her soft lips.

His tongue gently pried open her small mouth, slipping inside to taste her fully.

Yue Lan blinked in surprise for a brief moment before her golden eyes softened.

She knew how frustrated Li Feng currently was, so she truly wanted to help him relax and remove those negative feelings.

She gently held the back of his neck, returning the kiss with quiet acceptance.

Li Feng deepened the kiss, slow and sensual.

One of his hands slid down from her cheek, tracing the elegant line of her neck before slipping beneath the collar of her robes.

His palm moved over her smooth, warm skin, slowly pushing aside the shoulder of her robe and revealing her delicate shoulder.

Then it continued downward, roaming freely across the soft curve of her breast, kneading gently as he continued to explore her mouth.

"Mmm~..."

Yue Lan’s breath hitched slightly against his lips, but she did not pull away.

After a long moment, Li Feng slowly released her mouth.

"Haa..."

A thin strand of saliva briefly connected their lips before breaking.

He then trailed soft, lingering kisses down her cheek and along the side of her neck, inhaling her calm, cool fragrance that always reminded him of clear moonlight and pure spiritual snow.

Yue Lan tilted her head slightly to the side, granting him better access as she felt his warm tongue brush against the sensitive skin of her neck.

Her breathing grew a little softer, a faint flush appearing on her pale cheeks.

Yet even while enjoying the intimacy, she still asked in a quiet, gentle voice:

"...But why didn’t you interrogate her when you already captured her?"

Li Feng’s lips paused against her neck for a second.

He continued kissing the soft skin just below her ear as he answered in a low, slightly rough voice.

"Her soul and body were severed at the time, she was nothing more than an empty shell. Interrogating her then would have been impossible."

His hand continued roaming slowly over her body beneath the robes, enjoying the silky smoothness of her skin as he continued,

"But I have repaired the connection between her soul and body through dual cultivation. It seems she was quite mad that I took her primordial yin."

Yue Lan’s golden eyes half-closed as she felt his hand inside her robe and his lips on her skin.

"...I see."

She still held the back of his neck gently, allowing him to continue.

But then Yue Lan murmured worriedly while still tilting her head to the side.

"...Since she is like that... wouldn’t she just keep her mouth shut even if you try to ask her again?"

Li Feng’s movements paused slightly again.

He let out a soft sigh against her skin, his warm breath tickling the sensitive side of her neck.

"...If she still refuses to cooperate..."

His hand, which had been gently kneading her soft breast beneath the robes, slowly tightened with a more possessive grip.

"...Then I will have to force her."

There was no hesitation in his voice.

Yue Lan’s golden eyes flickered open a little.

She turned her head slightly to look at him, her cool fingers still resting against the back of his neck.

"...Force her?"

Li Feng lifted his head from her neck and met her gaze.

His expression was calm, but there was a cold, decisive light in his eyes.

"She is a gold-class assassin from the Rain Pavilion. Someone who participated in the attack on the border fortress and nearly caused countless deaths. She is not an innocent victim."

His thumb gently brushed across her lower lip as he continued in a low voice.

"I already gave her a choice once... and she refused. If she continues to refuse after this... then I will use the other methods. Then... there will be no more choice for her."

Yue Lan remained silent for a moment, still looking at him.

She did not argue.

After everything they had experienced, she understood Li Feng’s nature well enough.

When it came to enemies who threatened those around him, he would not show unnecessary mercy.

"...I understand," she finally said softly, but she couldn’t help feeling a hint of worry for him.

After all... if he really could force that assassin without any harm or side effects, he probably would have done so from the beginning.

The fact that he had left a choice for that assassin meant that something must have happened to force him to abandon a completely forceful approach.

And now...

Her hand tightened slightly around his neck.

Li Feng smiled faintly and leaned in again, pressing another lingering kiss against the side of her neck.

"Don’t worry. I know what I’m doing."

His hand resumed its slow, sensual movements over her body as he pulled her a little closer, enjoying her warmth a little longer.
