The Beautiful CEO's Dragon Blood Bodyguard-Chapter 1315: Bewitching the Human Heart

Without the scorching heat from the fire at the base of the mountain, the temperature inside the Alchemy Room quickly dropped to a level cultivators could tolerate.

Even so, Long Fei released the Red Flame Gourd, letting it absorb the surrounding heat.

The Ice Soul Gourd exhaled cold air, while the Red Flame Gourd inhaled heat.

The two gourds floated in the air, swaying their heads and tails, stubbornly ignoring each other, their amusing antics making everyone laugh.

Long Fei activated a Light Gathering Stone, illuminating the cave brightly, and began carefully examining the murals.

Chu Feng asked curiously, "What do these depict?"

Long Fei observed for a moment and said, "This seems to show the Human Race battling the Demon Race. Look at the walls; they resemble the fortress we saw outside, with the Humans defending it while these monstrous creatures, likely the Demon Race, are attacking."

Wang Jie stared in astonishment and said, "Whoa, the Demon Race has so many troops!"

Murong Chong said curiously, "Wait, doesn’t that creature look like an elephant?"

"Taller than an elephant, and with longer tusks."

Wang Jie stroked his chin, analyzing.

Chu Feng chuckled and said, "Ignorant fool, that’s called a mammoth."

"What kind of ’moth’?"

Wang Jie widened his eyes.

Long Fei explained, "A mammoth is just a woolly elephant, an ancient species."

"Oh really?"

Wang Jie scratched his head, recalling that he had seen the term in a library but hadn’t paid it much attention at the time.

Murong Chong said, "So these mammoths are part of the Demon Clan—could they be aiding the Demon Race?"

Chu Feng said, "Why’s that surprising? Demonic Spirit and demon—same bloodline, same family."

Long Fei stared at the mural and shook his head, saying, "No, if you look closely, the Demon Clan depicted here is entirely black. Mammoths aren’t normally this color, are they?"

"Vapors must’ve blackened them."

Chu Feng stepped into the air and wiped at the mural with his hand.

Nothing changed.

The mammoths and other Demon Clan creatures on the mural were unmistakably painted black.

Long Fei thought back to the demonizers he had encountered in the secular world, particularly a student named Liu Mang whose body had turned black during his mutation.

As everyone was deep in thought, Long Fei continued inspecting further down, murmuring to himself in analysis, "Could they be demonizers? Can the Demon Race actually assimilate other species?"

Earlier, when the Blood Demon let out a thunderous roar, nearly a thousand individuals had charged at once.

Long Fei doubted that they had willingly done so; perhaps they had fallen under the influence of the demon’s voice or other forces.

Wang Xiaoya, looking in a different direction, suddenly pointed to a spot and exclaimed, "Look quickly! Aren’t these inscriptions methods to activate the Pill Furnace?"

Everyone immediately turned to follow her gesture.

On the wall of the cave, they saw a row of engravings.

The characters resembled arcane symbols, incomprehensible even after a long time of trying to decipher them.

Long Fei sat down and said to everyone, "These inscriptions indeed seem like a secret technique to control the Pill Furnace. Let’s sit down and contemplate them together to see who might resonate with this furnace."

"Not interested, you guys go ahead!"

Chu Feng twirled his spear in his hand; alchemy wasn’t his forte, and he had no use for the Pill Furnace.

Wang Jie and Murong Chong also chuckled awkwardly, "Boss, only you and Little Ya know alchemy. You two can meditate on this; we’ll check out other parts."

"Yeah, yeah, don’t drag us into such high-level problems."

The two didn’t even glance at the furnace, heading off to search the cave walls for other opportunities.

Laughing at each other, Long Fei and Wang Xiaoya sat down side by side, fixating on the inscriptions for contemplation.

Soon, a voice echoed from above the cave. It carried an air of authority, "Young ones, what do you think of making a deal with me?"

The group flinched as if hit by a shockwave, quickly looking around with heightened vigilance.

The voice of Xuanyuan King said, "Relax. I’m merely speaking through divine sense and won’t lay a hand on you. But, as someone who recognizes your exceptional talents, I’m compelled to offer you advice: do not go against the natural order. Look at the current state of affairs; I’m sure you’ve sensed it yourselves. Darkness will return to the world, and we Demon Race will rule the entirety of existence. Not just here, but throughout the Three Realms. If you pledge allegiance to me now, I promise you control over this land, ultimate power, even the chance to attain immortality and ascend to godhood."

Chu Feng cursed, "Demon Chief, stop your delusional daydreaming! Righteousness and evil can never coexist. With you devils as backing, who’d ever achieve ascension?"

"Foul Demon Chief, quit pretending to be a senior. If you’re so powerful, come down here for a fight!"

"Weren’t you the Blood Demon who was just defeated by my boss earlier?"

Wang Jie and Murong Chong joined in with their own curses.

Long Fei then asked a probing question, "Senior, how exactly do you think we could assist you?"

The group tensed up, staring at Long Fei in disbelief, wondering why he would say such a thing.

Wang Xiaoya even pinched Long Fei, suspecting he might have been possessed by the Demon Race.

The Blood Demon above roared with laughter, "Young man! You’re truly clever! The condition is simple: just bring up the Pill Furnace and don’t oppose me! Do this, and you’ll gain fame as the heroes who helped me sweep across the world!"

Long Fei asked, "Is it your intention to release all the Blood God Children contained within the Pill Furnace?"

The voice above paused, astonished, "You... you already know?"

Long Fei smirked, "I didn’t know; I was just guessing. Based on your reaction, I must’ve guessed right."

The Blood Demon cursed, "You insolent brat! How dare you trick me into revealing that!"

Hearing this, Chu Feng and the others laughed in relief. It confirmed their trust that Long Fei wasn’t under the Demon’s control.

Long Fei scoffed, "Xuanyuan King, don’t mistake us for fools easily swayed by your demonic voice. If you think otherwise, why not come down here and fight? Let’s see if you still have the strength of your glory days!"

He deliberately provoked Xuanyuan King, trying to force him to show himself. freewebnσvel.cѳm

"You dare court death!"

Xuanyuan King shouted in fury but restrained himself from appearing, instead threatening them, "Fine! Oppose the heavens, and don’t blame me for showing no mercy. If I can’t kill you, then I’ll ensure your suffering!"

He raised his voice and began rallying others, "Everyone, listen! The greatest opportunity in the world lies within the sunken cave here. Hidden inside are pills refined by Emperor Flame. One pill alone can multiply your strength. If you wish to escape this wretched place, head down, claim the treasures, and stop wasting time!"

"Despicable demon, so damn shameless,"

Chu Feng cursed furiously, while the others readied themselves for battle.

The cultivators above had initially planned to wait until noon tomorrow to escape over the Iron Chain Bridge.

However, after hearing Xuanyuan King’s words, their desire flared uncontrollably.

"Pills?"

"Flame Emperor’s pills?"

"Wow, so that’s why Long Fei risked going down!"

"We’re going too—we might have a chance!"

"Right, let’s seize the opportunity! We all deserve a share of those pills!"

"..."

The cultivators started conversing loudly, quickly forming coalitions.

Seeing that Long Fei and his group had survived inside the cave, many assumed that the temperature couldn’t be unbearable inside.

Sword light streaked through the air, and expert cultivators from various factions ventured forth first. Peering into the cave and spotting Long Fei’s group still alive, they exclaimed excitedly, "They’re alive! Let’s head down and fight for the treasures!"

Like madmen, the crowd surged forward. Those who entered this perilous place were no strangers to risk—only the value of the opportunity dictated their willingness.

Now, with the temptation of Emperor Flame’s pills, no one could resist.

In an instant, over a thousand streaks of sword light filled the air, tracing arcs of white brilliance as they charged en masse into the cave.
