The Secrets of the Dream of the Red Chamber, Chapter 83

Chapter 83: The Great Soul-Binding Technique
! As the beaded curtain was lifted, a pair of stunningly beautiful women entered the pavilion. On the left, a figure with a purple cloud-like ceiling, was none other than the "Purple-Haired Enchantress," Kong Que'er. The woman on the right, however, possessed large, beautiful eyes that shimmered with a spring-like brilliance, giving her an indescribable, eerie quality. Shi
Rong's eyes lit up, his poised body suddenly relaxed, and a smile that had captivated countless women appeared on his lips. He said loudly, "I failed to greet you properly, I deserve to die! When did you arrive, sister?"
He secretly breathed a sigh of relief: "I wondered who could have entered so silently, it turns out it was her!"
It turned out that the woman who entered with Zi Ji was her own sister—the "Azure-Eyed Demoness" Phoenix, who had captivated the entire Southern Frontier. She took a few steps forward, bowed slightly, and said sweetly, "This subordinate greets the Sect Master."
Although the hierarchy within the Holy Gate was extremely strict, Shi Rong treated her differently from others, not caring at all, and still smiled very nicely: "Sister, didn't you leave the Southern Frontier a long time ago? Why are you only arriving now?" The
Blue-Eyed Demoness smiled and said, "It's all to prepare a gift for you. As your older sister, I didn't want to come to see my brother-in-law empty-handed."
Shi Rong laughed, "It's too formal for family to say that. I'm already overjoyed that you came."
Hearing the man say this, Zi Ji felt a sweet warmth in her heart and pulled Phoenix along, laughing, "That's right, we're very happy that you came, sister. There's no need for such trouble." The
Blue-Eyed Demoness said, "It's no trouble at all. It's just a convenient thing to take. Why not take it if it's free?
" Shi Rong, sensing the deeper meaning in her words and knowing the woman's capabilities, smiled and asked, "What do you mean by that, sister?"
He couldn't help but glance at her emerald eyes a few more times, secretly thinking, "She seems even stranger than before..."
The Emerald Demoness didn't continue, glancing at the faint, almost vanishing finger mark on his face. Her beautiful eyes then shifted to Dong Yiting, who was huddled against the wall. Seeing her timidly covering her exposed areas, though young, she possessed a beauty like a lotus in the morning dew, utterly endearing. She chuckled, "Indeed, a rare beauty indeed. No wonder my brother-in-law is so aroused." Shi
Rong was somewhat embarrassed. Although Feng Huang'er was also a member of the Holy Sect and Zi Ji's older sister, he didn't want to reveal any weakness in front of anyone. He forced himself to remain calm, adopting a carefree demeanor, and laughed, "Just a little fooling around, please forgive me, sister."
Bi Ji said, "Is she the youngest daughter of the Eastern Grand Tutor, that one-in-a-million perfect furnace?"
Clearly, Zi Ji had already told her about it.
Shi Rong nodded, and Zi Ji said, "Indeed, half of Rong Lang's breakthrough to the sixth level of 'Moonlight Essence' is thanks to her.
" Tingting opened her eyes wide, but still didn't understand what they were saying. She felt a little downcast: "Who are these two women? They seem quite close to my older brother."
Phoenix said, "But she's pretty but not very obedient." Shi
Rong said, "This girl is very stubborn and difficult to discipline."
For some reason, he suddenly thought of Ke Qing, and felt a slight pang in his heart. The
Green-Eyed Demoness glanced at the palm print on his face again and laughed, "Difficult to discipline because you can't bear to discipline her, right? Want me to try?"
Shi Rong knew she had many methods and happily said, "That's best. I'll let her follow you from now on, but... but she's really stubborn. Sister, you'll have to take it slow.
" Biji chuckled and said, "Look at you, so smug, afraid I'll break this cauldron, huh? Well, let me show you my skills first!"
She then walked up to the girl and asked with a smile, "Little sister, what's your name?"
Tingting, seeing her foxy appearance, disliked her from the start. Adopting the airs of a grand tutor's daughter, she coldly replied, "Why should I tell you… and who are you?"
Phoenix knelt down, bringing her face close to hers, and laughed, "Look at my eyes, aren't they fun? What's inside?" Tingting
had long felt that Phoenix's eyes were strange, and unconsciously looked over. To her surprise, her gaze was immediately drawn in, like iron meeting a magnet. She saw a soft, ever-changing, iridescent light flowing within them, sometimes like emerald water, sometimes like a gemstone, sometimes so deep it was unfathomable. Her soul seemed to slowly emerge from within her, involuntarily drifting forward…
The Green-Eyed Demoness said in a sweet voice, “Little sister, relax…yes…relax…relax…don’t think about anything…relax…yes…it will feel very comfortable…tell me…aren’t my eyes beautiful?
” The girl nodded dazedly, murmuring, “Very beautiful, many colors, I…I…”
Hearing this, Shi Rong also looked at Phoenix’s eyes from the side, thinking, “How can there be many colors? There’s clearly only one emerald green…”
Suddenly feeling dizzy, the "Moonlight True Qi" within her body surged instantly. Startled, she quickly pulled her gaze away. Zi Ji
laughed, "Don't look, your sister is casting a spell." The Green-
Eyed Demoness continued, "You don't know where you are, right? Then don't think about it... don't think about it... what's your name?" Tingting
lazily replied, "My name is Dong Yiting... Father and Mother call me Tingting..."
Shi Rong asked Zi Ji, "Is this the 'Soul-Binding Technique' that your sister recently mastered?
" Kong Que'er said, "Well, don't listen to what she says, she's very powerful."
Shi Rong thought to himself, "I can ignore what I see, but I can't ignore what I hear. I don't believe this 'Soul-Binding Technique' has such magic power!"
Instead, he focused his attention on listening to Phoenix's words.
The Blue-Eyed Demoness asked again, "Who is your father?"
Tingting replied, "My father is the Grand Tutor Dong Yuzhi..." The Blue-Eyed Demoness
smiled eerily, "No, your father isn't him... Your father and mother are both gone... no longer in this world..."
Tingting said confusedly, "Gone? They're gone?" The
Blue-Eyed Demoness said, "Yes, your parents are gone... You can't remember them... Don't think about them... Don't think about them..."
The girl said dreamily, "I don't want to think about them anymore...
" The Blue-Eyed Demoness then asked, "Where are your parents
?" Tingting replied, "I don't know...they're gone...I don't want to...I don't want to..." As
Shi Rong listened, he suddenly felt a wave of confusion. Fortunately, the "Essence of Moonlight" was a rare and powerful technique, and it immediately reacted, surging within his body again. He suddenly realized what was happening and swayed slightly. Kong Que'er glanced at him
and whispered reproachfully, "You're listening to your sister again! Be careful she doesn't turn you into a fool!" Shi Rong was horrified
, thinking to himself, "This 'Soul-Binding Technique' is indeed not to be underestimated. In battles between experts, victory or defeat often hinges on the slightest difference. If I were to pause for even a moment at this crucial moment, I'm afraid I would lose my life instantly.
" The Blue-Eyed Demoness said, "My voice is very beautiful, isn't it?"
Tingting replied, "Beautiful... very beautiful..."
The Blue-Eyed Demoness said, "You must remember this voice... You must be obedient from now on... Do whatever this voice tells you... Do you understand?" Tingting
murmured as if in a dream, "I understand... I understand..." The
Blue-Eyed Demoness suddenly placed a jade finger on her brow, gently shook it a few times, and then slowly moved it elsewhere, pointing at Shi Rong. Her voice seemed to possess an irresistible magic: "Alright, get up, crawl to that man, and take off the handkerchief from his waist.
" Tingting stammered, "Untie...untie the handkerchief." The
Blue-Eyed Demoness's voice was dreamlike: "Yes, untie the handkerchief from his waist. Quick, crawl over there..."
Shi Rong saw the girl bend down, her hands on the ground, and obediently crawl to him. Her two soft, snow-white hands touched his waist, as docile as a little rabbit, a stark contrast to her previous demeanor. He was dumbfounded.
Phoenix watched with a smile as the girl loosened the handkerchief around the man's waist, then said, "Okay, take off this man's pants and see what's inside.
" Tingting seemed to hesitate for a moment, then followed her instructions and pulled down Shi Rong's pants layer by layer. A huge, very slightly aroused white jade dragon was finally exposed, trembling and presented before the three beauties.
The Azure-Eyed Demoness's beautiful eyes were hazy. She glanced at the slightly panting man out of the corner of her eye and said in a seductive voice, "Very good. Lift this thing up and lick it with your mouth." Bao Yu
's
face was pale and his lips white, covered in cold sweat. He stood there stunned for a while before calling to the counter, "Waiter, bring me another cup!"
He desperately suppressed the turmoil in his heart and sat down again.
The waiter hurriedly replied, saying that the customer had accidentally dropped the cup. The people at the tables in the karaoke
bar stared at him for a moment. Seeing his luxurious clothes, delicate skin, and clear eyes, but lacking any signs of internal energy, they concluded he wasn't a martial arts practitioner. They then ignored him and resumed their drinking, eating, and talking.
Little did they know that the place where Baoyu stored his internal energy was truly unbelievable—it was on the spiritual jade pendant on his chest. Even he himself was clueless; how could others possibly know?
"The Carefree Little Immortal" Shen Wenxing asked, "By the way, where is Rou Shui Manor? Which sect's treasure land is it?" The middle -
aged man said, "About ten miles from here is Zitan Fortress, and Roushui Manor is right next to it. It's the property of Cui Chaoyang, the big boss of the 'Chaoyang Gambling House' in the capital. Hearing that the heroes were going to besiege the demoness, he offered this manor, saying it was quite comfortable and located in a remote area, unlikely to alarm the court, thus avoiding a lot of trouble."
Shen Wenxing nodded and said, "I've heard of this man. It's said he's quite greedy, but I didn't expect him to have such a chivalrous heart. This time, he's actually willing to contribute to the siege of the demoness."
The middle-aged man chuckled, "Isn't he just trying to curry favor with Alliance Leader Long? Besides, this deal is profitable. He's a businessman; he's got a
good shrewd mind." Shen Wenxing said, "He's a businessman, so there's nothing wrong with that." Despite her
words, a hint of disdain flickered across her face.
Baoyu, utterly bewildered, was greatly puzzled: "Isn't Cui Chaoyang A Yao's subordinate? How could he be providing conveniences for these people? Has he lost his mind? Oh no! He must have seen their numbers and power, and out of fear, he's become a traitorous opportunist! This is terrible! If my wife is still kept in the dark, then things will be very bad!" He
felt like he was sitting on pins and needles, wishing he could immediately go find Shen Yao, but worried that leaving suddenly would arouse suspicion.
He no longer cared about the beauties; his mind was in turmoil. "Ah Yao went to seek revenge on that frozen old monster, and she was already unsure of herself. Now, suddenly, these enemies have appeared. How can she possibly handle them? Especially this so-called 'Carefree Little Immortal.' Judging from their boasting and flattery, they are definitely not easy to deal with! I must find Ah Yao quickly and tell her to escape far away. No matter what, she can't possibly come back..."
Thinking and thinking, he suddenly felt a great headache: "If A-Yao doesn't return to the capital, then I'll never see her again... Heavens! Why are so many people suddenly appearing to make things difficult for my wife? Heavens, what should I do!" After a long while
, he saw the people at those tables get up and leave the tavern one after another. He heard the middle-aged man outside loudly announce: "Everyone, please follow Boss Zhou's carriage slowly. When we arrive at Rou Shui Manor, there will be good wine to treat us."
Then he heard the sounds of people shouting and horses neighing. The innkeeper said repeatedly: "Goodbye, esteemed guests. Please visit our inn again next time you pass by.
" After waiting for a while, Baoyu heard the noise outside gradually subside. He then paid the bill and hurriedly went out, wanting to find Shen Yao as soon as possible. Suddenly, he was stunned: "I don't know where A-Yao is right now. Where am I supposed to find her?"
Just as he was dumbfounded, he suddenly saw two people walking in front of him. They were the middle-aged man who looked like a clerk and the blind young man in brocade robes. It was too late to avoid them. He quickly bent down and leaned against the wall, pretending to be drunk and vomiting.
It turned out that the two of them had just come out of the latrine and had not noticed Baoyu. The middle-aged man said as he walked, "Brother Murong, when will your 'Debt Collection House' people arrive?"
The young man in brocade robes said, "They left late. They probably won't arrive in the next two days. However, there are many experts participating in the 'Demon Extermination Conference' this time. It's not a big problem whether they arrive or not."
The middle-aged man said, "After capturing the demoness, what do you think those people will do with her?" The young
man in brocade robes said, "They'll definitely take her to Luoyang and present her to the Dragon Alliance Leader to avenge his son. The White Lotus Sect has grown stronger in recent years, and now Shaolin, Wudang, and the Beggars' Sect are all cowering, not daring to confront them. In the martial world, I'm afraid only the Dragon Alliance Leader can stand up and fight against them."
The middle-aged man suddenly lowered his voice and said, "Brother Murong, are you willing to let them take the demoness away like this?"
The young man in brocade robes stopped and said, "Of course not! I dream of making that little demoness wish she were dead! Brother Lü, do you have any good plans?" The
middle-aged man smiled and said, "There is indeed a plan. Whether it succeeds or not depends on you, brother."
The young man in brocade robes was moved and said, "Brother Lü, please tell me quickly! As long as I can get that demoness into my hands, I'm willing to do anything!"
The middle-aged man said sinisterly, "It's not too difficult. After capturing the demoness, someone will definitely raise the question of who should escort her to Luoyang. At that time, you should try your best to get the people from your Murong family's 'debt collection unit' to handle it. In terms of strength, as long as Shen Wenxing and Leng Ran don't compete, you'll most likely get your wish. Then, hehe… on the hundreds of miles to Luoyang, whether you travel fast or slow, and what you do on the way, won't it all be up to you, brother?
" The young man in brocade robes exclaimed with delight, "Brilliant! Brilliant! Brother Lü, you are truly as wise as Sui He and as resourceful as Lu Jia! I'll be gone for three to five months, and by the time I reach Luoyang, that vixen will have been thoroughly ravaged, inside and out! Hahaha!"
The middle-aged man laughed, "Then I only ask that you, brother, don't forget your elder brother and get a share too." The
young man in brocade robes trembled, gritting his teeth, "Definitely! We'll repay our deep-seated hatred a thousandfold, and we'll definitely ravage that vixen until she's thoroughly exhausted and crippled! Brother, do you know, I still remember that little vixen's appearance clearly. For the past two years, every time I think of her, I want to sleep with another woman, and with each woman, I'll try something new. When the time comes… I'll make her try everything, hahaha!
" The middle-aged man just chuckled sinisterly, "I'm afraid that vixen is still a virgin, a greenhorn who hasn't experienced the ways of the world."
The two men burst into lewd laughter, embraced each other, walked to the stable, mounted their horses, whipped their hindquarters several times, and sped away like lightning. It
turned out that the middle-aged man was none other than Lü Kun, the deputy head of "Dianhualou," one of the four great brothels of the time; the young man in brocade robes was Murong Muxue, the "Plum Blossom Gentleman" of the "Murong Family"; and the fat man surnamed Zhou was Zhou Yanzhang, the wealthy Suzhou tycoon known as "The Dead Man Speaks of Life." All three had harbored ill intentions towards Shen Yao in the past and suffered greatly as a result. They had always held a grudge and sought revenge day and night. Recently, they somehow learned of Shen Yao's arrival in the capital and began stirring up trouble, jointly planning this "Demon-Slaying Assembly." Baoyu was already pale, trembling uncontrollably, his heart pounding with fear: "What if A-Yao falls into their hands? That would be terrible! No, no, we absolutely cannot let them succeed!" Although this lecherous man was terrified, the thought of his beloved wife suddenly gave him a hundredfold
courage: "Even if I lose my life, I must go and save A-Yao!"
Suddenly, he thought, "Since I don't know where to find A-Yao right now, why don't I go to Rou Shui Manor first and see how those people plan to make things difficult for A-Yao, so I can have a plan?"
He immediately left the tavern and used his lightness skill to rush towards Zi Tan Fort.
Before long, Bao Yu had caught up with the dozen or so riders. Afraid of being discovered, he slowed his pace, only lightly stepping and leaping on the treetops and leaves along the roadside, keeping close behind.
Shen Wenxing rode alongside Lü Yixuan and Huang Yuling, not saying much along the way. Suddenly, he laughed and said, "You two always say that the Wudang School's lightness skill is extremely wonderful. There's a move called something like 'Ladder,' isn't there?" "
It's called 'Ladder Cloud Leap.' You always deliberately forget it. Do you look down on the Wudang School?
" Lü Yixuan glared at him and said.
Shen Wenxing said, "How could I dare? It's just that what you all said sounds too amazing, so I'm a little skeptical."
Huang Yuling innocently said, "We're not kidding you. We saw Senior Brother Leng Ran demonstrate it with our own eyes. It was truly amazing! He could actually turn in mid-air without any leverage."
Shen Wenxing made an exaggerated expression and clicked his tongue, "Really? In that case, Leng Ran's lightness skill must be better than mine."
Huang Yuling bluntly said, "Really, really! I'm not kidding you. Junior Brother, your swordsmanship is definitely comparable to Senior Brother Leng's, but your lightness skill is another story." Shen Wenxing
smiled slightly and said, "Senior Sisters, watch carefully."
As Baoyu galloped through the treetops, he suddenly noticed an unridden horse among the crowd below, and was puzzled: "How could this be? Just now, everyone seemed to be riding horses..." Suddenly,
his vision blurred, and his body went limp.
Hearing the rustling of leaves, everyone looked up and saw Shen Wenxing carrying someone, flying out of the bushes. The person made an incredible sharp turn in mid-air before gracefully landing, his movements elegant and beautiful. The two women were speechless; they had been
fellow disciples with this junior brother for many years, yet they had no idea he possessed such superb lightness skills.
Shen Wenxing calmly slammed the person in his hand to the ground, lightly flicked a maple leaf off his clothes, and smiled at the "Surprising Rainbow Twin Swords," saying, "Our sect's lightness skill isn't bad, is it? Don't underestimate yourselves, senior sisters."
The crowd then came to their senses and cheered loudly. Lü Kun even gave a thumbs-up, praising, "As expected of the leader of the Ten Young Heroes, as expected of the 'Carefree Little Immortal,' this lightness skill is truly breathtaking!"
Shen Wenxing's face darkened, and he shouted at Baoyu on the ground, "Who are you? Why are you following us?" Baoyu
was thrown about, dazed and confused. A branch had scratched his forehead, and blood streamed down his face. Still bewildered, he tried to get up, but Shen Wenxing stepped on his chest and shouted, "Didn't you hear me? I'm asking you a question!" Baoyu
had never suffered such humiliation. He cried out in anger and frustration, "Let me up!" Shen
Wenxing coldly replied, "Answer my question."
Baoyu, his temper hardening, retorted, "Let me up first!"
Shen Wenxing said, "Still being stubborn!
" The foot pressing down on Baoyu's chest increased slightly, instantly making him see stars and almost suffocate.
Lü Kun said, "This kid was in that tavern just now. When he heard we were going to surround and kill the demoness, he panicked. Now he's following us again. Could it be... he's an informant for the White Lotus Sect?" Upon
hearing this, Lü Yixuan and Huang Yuling simultaneously drew their swords from their waists and crossed them against Baoyu's neck.
Baoyu said fearfully, "The authorities need to carefully interrogate criminals before sentencing them. Are you just going to kill people like this?"
Lü Yixuan gritted her teeth and said, "The demons of the White Lotus Sect commit all sorts of evil. If I ever encounter them, I always kill them with a single sword strike. What's there to ask questions about!
" Baoyu immediately wilted, his face as white as paper, and said, "I am not a member of the White Lotus Sect. If you kill people indiscriminately, you are not heroes."
Shen Wenxing was too lazy to waste words with him, so he stomped on Baoyu's face and shouted, "Speak quickly! Why have you been following us all this way?"
Baoyu was furious and grumbled from below, "This road isn't yours! You can walk on it, but I can't?
" He had originally had a good impression of this young hero, but now his impression changed drastically, and he found Baoyu's handsome face utterly repulsive
. Lu Kun recalled that he and Murong Muxue had just come out of the latrine, and this kid was vaguely nearby. He guessed that the kid had probably overheard their conversation. A wicked thought arose in his heart, and he said to Shen Wenxing in a sinister tone, "This kid is still trying to deny it. He must be a member of the White Lotus Sect. We still have to travel. Why not just finish him off with a sword?
" Lu Yixuan, who always hated evil, replied, "Okay!"
With a flick of her wrist, the blade silently sliced into Baoyu's neck...
Bright red blood gushed out from his skin, leaping merrily in the bright sunlight.
