Chapter 1899: Chapter 1899: Seductive Woman

"It’s you?" Tan Long naturally also noticed Xu Nian and his gaze towards Xu Nian turned unfriendly.

He had long harbored hostility towards Xu Nian, and because of Li Tianxue’s death, Tan Long marked Xu Nian as a must-kill target.

If not for the restrictions on fighting within the Netherworld God Temple, he would have killed Xu Nian long ago.

Now seeing Xu Nian appear, how could he remain indifferent?

Xu Nian also frowned, a hint of surprise in his eyes.

He hadn’t expected that Tan Long would also be involved in this mission.

"You guys know each other?" Ye Shumin also noticed the relationship between Xu Nian and Tan Long and immediately asked.

"Not really, Sister Ye. Is this person also participating in this mission?" Tan Long was hostile to Xu Nian but was quite courteous to Ye Shumin.

"Yes, I invited him." Ye Shumin frowned slightly, showing a hint of seriousness.

On the other side, a young man at the peak of Divine level also noticed the situation between Xu Nian and Tan Long but chose to remain silent, watching from the sidelines as if entertained.

"Sister Ye, I don’t mean to target you, but given the danger of this mission, having someone at Nether Emperor level participate would surely hold us back, wouldn’t it?" Tan Long said bluntly.

Xu Nian sneered instantly upon hearing this.

As he expected, Tan Long would definitely bring up his cultivation level.

Ye Shumin’s face became displeased too, saying, "Tan Long, although Xu Fenn is at Nether Emperor level, he managed to pass the trials and enter the Netherworld God Temple. That means he has sufficient strength himself. I’ve checked, his mission was to slay the Red Blood Sky Blue Python at God Level. He completed the task, so his strength might not be much weaker than ours."

"Oh? Slay a God level Red Blood Sky Blue Python?" The peak of Divine level powerhouse watching the scene showed a surprised expression, scrutinizing Xu Nian.

Xu Nian could feel that this person’s strength was definitely not weak, certainly not an ordinary peak of Divine level powerhouse.

Because from him, Xu Nian sensed a strong presence of Great Tao True Intent.

Tan Long showed a trace of surprise upon hearing this.

But soon, the killing intent in his eyes intensified. Clearly, the stronger Xu Nian’s ability appeared to be, the more determined he was to kill him.

Since they had already become enemies, it was impossible to resolve the conflict peacefully; how could he allow a potential enemy to grow?

"Fine, since Sister Ye says so, I have no objections." Tan Long suddenly changed his mind and decided not to oppose.

Xu Nian was slightly taken aback, then sneered.

Tan Long’s attitude changed quickly, clearly intending to seize this mission opportunity and make sure Xu Nian would never return.

Otherwise, he wouldn’t agree to this mission so easily.

Noticing Tan Long no longer opposing, Ye Shumin didn’t say more, just spoke lightly, "Since we’re on a mission together, I hope we can unite and avoid internal conflicts."

Clearly, Ye Shumin also figured out Tan Long’s intention.

The young man maintained an amused and playful smile, obviously understanding everything as well.

However, Xu Nian was not afraid at all due to Tan Long’s presence.

Five years ago, he might have held some fear.

But after five thousand years of cultivation, how could Xu Nian fear Tan Long in the slightest?

When the time comes, it’s hard to say whose victory it would be.

"Be careful; Tan Long might be up to no good against you." Ye Shumin transmitted to Xu Nian.

"Don’t worry, Sister Ye. If he wants to make a move, let him do it. I’m not afraid." Xu Nian transmitted back.

Ye Shumin was slightly stunned.

She hadn’t expected Xu Nian to be so composed.

This made her momentarily unable to see through Xu Nian.

For a Nether Emperor to face the threat of a Fourth-level Realm Great Tao True Intent expert without any fear was indeed something rather unusual.

"Whoosh!"

Quickly, another figure flew over.

The newcomer turned out to be a young woman, cold and charming, carrying a faint enchanting aura.

Her cultivation was also at the peak of Divine level. 𝕗𝚛𝚎𝚎𝐰𝗲𝗯𝗻𝚘𝚟𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝕞

"Buzz!"

As the woman landed, she briefly exchanged gazes with Xu Nian.

In just one glance, Xu Nian felt a moment of distractibility, quickly activating the Chaos Green Lotus Technique to regain his focus.

"What terrifying enchanting abilities; this woman must have cultivated a charming technique?"

Xu Nian thought in surprise.

Charming techniques are commonly used by demon cultivators.

And at Divine level, charming techniques are usually of little concern.

But this woman’s charming skills evidently were different, as Xu Nian’s soul level had already reached the Divine level. Her single glance could affect Divine-level experts, showing the unusual nature of her charm.

Seeing Xu Nian quickly clear his mind after being momentarily dazed, the woman’s alluring face showed a trace of surprise.

But she didn’t ask anything, instead walking over to Ye Shumin’s side.

"Sister Ye, you arrived quite early." The seductive woman’s voice was gentle, flowing like the song of a nightingale.

Even her voice carried a seductive tone.

"Junior Sister Qiao is becoming more charming, it seems your Nine Charm Divine Technique has been cultivated to the seventh level?" Ye Shumin said with a smile.

Although Tan Long and the young man remained silent, they couldn’t help but glance more at the woman.

Showing that the woman’s allure was indeed great.

"I just broke through recently, heard this mission had something I wanted, so I came. Sister Ye, who are these people?" The seductive woman looked at the three men and smiled.

"This is Liu Xianjun; he is a peak of Divine level expert with Sixth Level Heaven True Intent, skilled in swordsmanship," Ye Shumin introduced the youth watching the scene with a smile.

"Sixth Level Heaven Great Tao True Intent?" The seductive woman’s eyes flashed with surprise as she cast a charming smile at the young man.

"I’ve heard of the unmatched beauty of Goddess Bai Yun, and indeed, upon seeing you today, you are extraordinary," the white-clad youth showed recognition and greeted.

"I’m Qiao Baiyun, meeting Liu Shenjun." The seductive woman smiled.

"This is Tan Long, who recently joined the Netherworld God Temple. His control over Great Tao True Intent has reached Fourth-level Heaven, sufficient to rank in the top three in this assessment," Ye Shumin continued to introduce.

"So this is Junior Brother Tan Long, quite handsome," the seductive woman turned to Tan Long and smiled.

"Greetings, Sister Qiao," Tan Long said lightly, his face slightly red.

Qiao Baiyun immediately gave a seductive smile, mesmerizing.

"And this is..." Qiao Baiyun pointed at Xu Nian and asked.

"This is Junior Brother Xu Fenn, also newly joined the Netherworld God Temple this year," Ye Shumin briefly introduced.

"Ah, Junior Brother Xu Fenn, seeing someone enter the Netherworld God Temple at Nether Emperor level is indeed unprecedented for many years, it seems Junior Brother Xu Fenn has some exceptional qualities?" Qiao Baiyun’s eyes, charming and captivating, locked on Xu Nian, evidently filled with strong interest.

"Sister Qiao is joking, I just got lucky, nothing extraordinary," Xu Nian replied with a smile.

Inwardly vowing to keep his distance from this woman.

This woman is definitely not to be underestimated.

Anyone who practices charming techniques at Divine level surely has the traits of a viper.

Qiao Baiyun, however, didn’t seem to hear Xu Nian’s reply, instead giving him a meaningful glance.

This glance made Xu Nian’s entire body feel uneasy.
