Charm attack

After nearly thirty minutes, the two decided to return to the camp.

"What should we do now?" Ye Ziyun asked with a worried look on her face.

Alan asked her, "What? I don't understand what you mean."

"You see, my friendship with Ning'er has just started to return to what it originally was. I have this chance only because of you, and I don't want to screw it. If Ning'er finds out about this, she will be really angry at me. She won't ever talk to me again. I don't want that," Ye Ziyun spoke with genuine emotion in her words.

"…I can hide it from her," Alan suddenly suggested.

"What?" Ye Ziyun asked him.

"I meant that we should keep our relationship a secret," Alan spoke up seriously. And before Ye Ziyun had a chance to think deeply, he explained his reasoning, "You should know our families. If my father finds out about my relationship with you, he will go to your father and try to get us engaged. We can't oppose them yet. Not till we have power and influence over ourselves. Do you get what I mean?" Alan asked her.

"…You want to keep this relationship a secret until we are strong enough so that the family can't compel us to do anything," Ye Ziyun got to this conclusion rather quickly.

"That's correct. That way, our families won't be able to use our relationship for their selfish goals. Do you agree with me?" Alan spoke as he slowly caressed her hair.

"Yes," Ye Ziyun spoke. She then asked him, "Then you agree to not mention it to Ning'er?"

"Mhm~" Alan spoke while he sneaked a peck on Ye Ziyun's lips rather quickly.

"Sorry, that wasn't my fault. You looked lovely," Ye Ziyun blushed at the compliment. She then hmphed while turning her face to the other side, "Not now. We are close to the camp."

The two moved on after discussing this topic for a bit longer.

Nearly two hours later, the two returned to the camp. It seemed that everyone else had already returned, and they were all waiting for the two of them.

Fortunately, there was not a single casualty since the Bronze Rank Cultivators were quick in escaping. If they had remained there, a bunch of them would have surely died!

Nie Li had returned long ago and was waiting for Ye Ziyun and Alan to return. He noticed that the distance between the two had shortened significantly!

Alan was casually grabbing Ye Ziyun's hand, and Ye Ziyun let him touch her? This seemed a bit surreal to him.

Nie Li soon made an eye-contact with Alan.

Alan could see that Nie li was confused. He was trying to judge the situation by observing Alan. But all Nie Li saw was a contemptuous yet victorious smile on his face.

Nie Li frowned upon seeing that contemptuous smile. He was sure that something had happened between Ye Ziyun and Alan, but he didn't want to guess wildly.

Thus, he decided to ask Ye Ziyun directly.

Naturally, Ye Ziyun kept her word and didn't mention a thing about her relationship with Alan.

Nie Li continued to speculate, but he didn't want to annoy Ye Ziyun, so he shut up while hoping for the best.

Alan smiled as he witnessed that entire situation unfolding before his eyes.

Chen Linjian soon appeared before Alan and asked him, "Are you fine? I saw you taking the blow for Ye Ziyun."

"My injury is alright. But I think we should move soon. The sun is rising, and the blood of the Fox Bears will soon attract other beasts."

Chen Linjian was a bit startled as he realized this issue and nodded seriously. The group was on the move soon enough.

~~

Alan checked out the number of points he gained from the entire scenario. And it had exceeded 15,000 points! Just Ye Ziyun generated him 10,000 Points through their kissing and her increase in favorability for Alan.

However, it was Nie Li who gave him 5000 points through his jealousy. The plan was a massive success.

Huyan Lanruo noticed that Ye Ziyun was a bit different ever since she returned to the camp. She suspected that something had happened between the two.

She urgently wanted to know what had happened between them.

Huyan Lanruo immediately pestered Alan and informed him how she assisted Chen Linjian in killing one of the Fox Bears.

Alan remained indifferent to her words and grunted coldly.

"There is something different about you and Ye Ziyun. Won't you tell big sister what happened?" Huyan Lanruo asked him softly. She purposely bent her body a bit to give Alan a clear view of her cleavage.

Alan responded, "Nothing happened. And even if it did, why would I tell you?"

"If you tell me, I can let you do anything you want," Huyan Lanruo promised softly. She then whispered in his ears, "And I mean anything."

Her eyes transformed into pink color while her pupils turned into slits as she used her charm technique by using her Demon Spirit.

Suddenly, Alan heard Zila's voice within his head, 'Host, you are under attack. The opponent is using a Charm technique on you.'

The technique wouldn't work on Alan due to the massive gap in their cultivation. But still, Alan asked swiftly, 'How do I counter charm techniques?'

'Host needs to buy a Charm Immunity Technique from the System. This will be a passive skill. It costs 10,000 Celestial Points.'

"Do it."
