God and Devil World
chapter-1017

An ethereal melody began to resound throughout the hall, intoxicating all who heard it.

As the music played, Holy Maiden Hong Xia began to twist her lithe figure, flowing according to the music, putting on a performance that seemed fit for immortals.

The moment she began to dance, she exuded an eye-catching charisma through her moves, and Zhang Xuan, Murong Wang, and Shao Hai Feng were all captivated, their eyes revealing dumbstruck expressions.

"Beautiful!!"

Yue Zhong watched her dance, and his heartbeat also quickened, his eyes gleaming with a drunken expression. He felt as though nothing else mattered, and that as long as he could obtain a kiss from this immortal fairy, he would be willing to give her anything, even his own heart.

As he was about to fall deeper in that entranced state, his body suddenly trembled and his eyes regained their clarity, his back breaking out in cold sweat, "Not good, there's something wrong!!"

After experiencing so many battles and killings, Yue Zhong's heart had been forged over and over again, even the most beautiful ladies had not caused his heart to waver in the slightest. At most, he would feel like there's a minute desire to possess them, but he would never fall into such a state.

He shot the dancing Holy Maiden Hong Xia an alarmed look, "What a terrifying demonic lady, had I not been at the Type 7 realm, or lacking the God-Devil Body, I would have really been entrapped in that desire, becoming a mindless suitor. The most terrifying thing is that I would be willing because I would have fallen for her completely."

The Sky Fragrance Dance and the ethereal music played by Duanmu Bing Xue was a special form of charming technique, bringing out the deepest desire of men and controlling while allowing the user's own charm to be boosted by 20%.

Due to the special circumstances of the combination technique, it was not a direct Spirit attack on the consciousness, thus, even Type 6 and Type 7 experts might fall into such a trap if not careful, and would really fall head over heels for the Holy Maiden.

Yue Zhong's Second Order God-Devil Body was able to resist countless charms, but it was also helpless against such a combination technique. Had it not been for the countless experience and his heart hardened after so long, he might have already been far gone.

As for the Holy Maiden herself, as she was dancing, she swept a glance and could tell that Yue Zhong had already extracted himself, her heart was full of shock, "No one has ever been able to escape from this combination of my Sky Fragrance Dance and Xue'er's Immortal Ode, except for the Saint Lord and those who are neither male nor female. This man was able to recover, truly capable. I need to test him once more."

She turned around gracefully, and smiled brilliantly at Yue Zhong, fully displaying her beautiful countenance as well as a strange glint in her eyes as she danced past Yue Zhong.

"Another charming technique? Truly underestimating me! Break!"

At the time she shot Yue Zhong a smile, his eyes went dazed for barely a second, and again, he felt that this woman was the only woman he truly loved in his entire life. However, his body trembled once more and he collected himself. His eyes then flashed coldly, as an image of him appeared in his sea of knowledge, blasting out at the spiritual energy attacking his mind.

At the moment his image destroyed the spirit attack, Holy Maiden Hong Xia turned pale, and her body trembled uncontrollably, as she quickly motioned slightly with her hand.

When Duanmu Bing Xue saw that signal, her eyes swept towards Yue Zhong, and she quickly brought her Immortal Ode to an end.

The tune ended and the Holy Maiden went back to her seat.

Shao Hai Feng regained his senses after a long while, sighing out sincerely, "Marvelous, truly marvelous! This Sky Fragrance Dance of yours was incredibly beautiful and fascinating to watch! I am still so enthralled each time. If I could see it often, I can die with no regrets."

As he spoke, he kept his heated gazed fixed upon her, his passion apparent. He was currently truly smitten with her, and even if she wanted him to kill himself, he would gladly do so without hesitation.

"Brother Shao is flattering me." Holy Maiden Hong Xia laughed gently, her face putting on an expression that caused one to feel comfortable and cannot help but love.

Murong Wang was also staring at Holy Maiden, his eyes flashing with a passionate gaze, "No, Palace Master Shao is right. It was truly an astounding immortal dance. Other than your Highness, no one else would be able to perform that dance. It is truly an honor and a fortune across 3 lifetimes that I, Murong Wang, was able to witness it."

Zhang Xuan also responded simply, "Precisely!"

Holy Maiden Hong Xia's eyes then flickered towards Yue Zhong, who had maintained silent, and smiled lightly, "Mr. Yue Zhong, was my dance not up to your standards?"

When her words came out, the gazes of the 3 men fell upon him, and they were sharp with envy and fury.

Even Zhang Xuan, who had sought to build good relations with him, was currently looking at him in a dangerous way.

All three of them had been thoroughly bewitched by the Holy Maiden, and since she was looking at Yue Zhong with a different gaze, they were naturally jealous.

Yue Zhong ignored their gazes and spoke indifferently, "I'm not educated about dance, I'm afraid that I will have to disappoint your Highness."

After that, he stared straight back at her, "Holy Maiden Hong Xia, this time, I've come to the Saint Lands to seek a business transaction. I want to obtain the technology on the particle cannons, the mech drones, the Gauss rifles as well as those Saint Land Protector Battleships. Of course, I will put forth something equal in value for the trade. It is a win-win situation for both sides."

Shao Hai Feng's face turned ugly, as he barked out immediately, "Preposterous!! These are our classified information, who the hell do you think you are, to come here and spout this bullshit?!"

Hong Xia waved her hands, however, causing him to shut up, before she asked with interest, "What can you bring out to exchange?"

P.S. The author mentioned in this chapter that he had something on in real life that he had to attend to and could not write more, but the next few chapters might be longer in length. In fact, he's frequently dealing with stuff, just that it's mostly the same message.
