Chapter 2144: Chapter 710: How Did She End Up Like This? But there, inside the Goddess Furnace, Ying’er lay completely uncovered. The Desire Law, like smoke and mist, drifted over her graceful, exquisite, curvaceous white jade-like body, causing her delicate skin to flush faintly red. Her delicate, beautiful face, once cold and severe, now appeared soft and pitiful, tear-streaked. Most striking were her deep, mysterious eyes, akin to dark night stars, now filled with bewilderment, empty, and lifeless. Her elegant and proud jade body, once lively and charming, lay still as a soulless shell. Although she still ignited a blazing desire within all living beings, she was no longer the cold female assassin she once was, as if she were two different people. "Could the Goddess Furnace have destroyed her?" Even though Lu Changsheng hadn’t fully activated the Goddess Furnace. After all, she was just a little cultivator in the Core Formation Third Layer. So after a year, Lu Changsheng truly wasn’t sure about the specific effects. Yin Yang Magic Power infused, opening the Goddess Furnace. As smoke and mist surged, the captivating figure of Ying’er’s flawless, alluring body appeared before her. She gently caressed her cheek with the back of her hand. A bit hot, and slightly damp. It felt like a fine sweat covered it, yet also seemed like recent tearstains from crying. Ying’er’s delicate body shivered slightly, without resisting. Then... like a kitten, she gently rubbed her cheek against the palm... "Ssss..." The rubbing motion grew increasingly large, with her bewildered eyes half-closed, her cheeks flushed charmingly, seemingly enjoying this moment immensely. "???" Lu Changsheng watched as Ying’er, like a kitten, kept nuzzling his palm, slightly stunned. The effect of the Goddess Furnace was just too domineering? Turning a willful female assassin directly into... a pet? "How have you been resting these days, Daoist Ying’er?" Lu Changsheng spoke, his voice warm and gentle as jade. Ying’er’s alluring white body suddenly tensed. Even her cheek, which was rubbing Lu Changsheng’s palm, momentarily froze. Ying’er! I am Ying’er, the trusted aide of the Nether Moon Saintess... Many images emerged in her mind, as though she regained some sense of self. "Buzz!" She wished to sever her heart veins. Yet not to mention, most of her power was now sealed, she could only access a fraction of it. Even at full strength, self-destruction wouldn’t be possible beside Lu Changsheng. "It seems it’s still lacking." After interrupting her power, Lu Changsheng murmured softly. Though the Desire Law distorted her thoughts and consciousness, the force was still too small. Moreover, he hadn’t taken the final step, amplifying her emotions and desires, leaving her with a bit of self-awareness. 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝒆𝒘𝙚𝓫𝙣𝙤𝒗𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢 "Sob... sob..." However, as soon as the hand on her cheek disappeared, Ying’er panicked, gasping as if she were a fish out of water, clutching his arm tightly, continuing to nuzzle her cheek, panting plaintively. As if only by doing so, could she find peace of mind and a sense of security... "???" Lu Changsheng furrowed his brow slightly, somewhat puzzled by Ying’er’s state. She seemed to be influenced, yet chose to end her own heart vein. She seemed unaffected, yet her current state... Lu Changsheng attempted to pull his arm away from her cheek, her hands, and her tender chest. "Mmm..." Ying’er’s head lifted, her delicate face tear-streaked, with a hint of a blush, evoking pity. Her bewildered eyes were filled with sorrow and plea, her lips slightly parted, but only sounds similar to a kitten’s cry emerged. "I know you have some clarity left, you can understand me." Lu Changsheng roughly understood her current state. Under the corrosion of the Goddess Furnace, though still retaining some reason, she had fallen into an uncontrollable chaotic state. "So now I give you two choices, first, I’ll send you back to the furnace, second, behave obediently..." Lu Changsheng’s hand gently stroked her face, his voice warm and leisurely. Upon hearing about going back to the furnace, Ying’er’s body instinctively shivered. Yet as a death soldier, her strong unwavering will made her grit her teeth and say, "Kill me, just kill me..." But at this time her face was flushed red, eyes bewildered, a few teary murmurs in her voice, lacking any semblance of seeking death. "Trash Goddess Furnace, looks like this old ancestor has to intervene myself." Lu Changsheng knew that Ying’er’s state was no more than a pet, unable to truly win her over and use her. He must personally take action, complete the final step, maximize the Goddess Furnace’s effect, making her his furnace, forgetting past experiences, sect, or Dao Heart, ever obedient to his desires. "Are you... willing to fully submit to me?" Lu Changsheng pinched her delicate chin, looking at her pitiable tear-streaked face, softly speaking. Doing something against a woman’s will wasn’t something Lu Ancestor preferred to do. But Ying’er involved a series of plans regarding Beast God Mountain. So in such cases, sacrificing his appeal was necessary. However, the latter wanting to seize his spiritual beasts, now held captive, becoming his spiritual pet... seemed fair, didn’t it? "I am willing... no..." Inside the Goddess Furnace’s erosion, Ying’er’s emotions and thoughts were already chaotic, carrying an inherent obedience and longing towards Lu Changsheng. Now hearing this, she instinctively wanted to respond. But remaining reason told her, her master was Beast God Mountain, the Nether Moon Saintess! She could never betray her; everything belonged to her.... Tears streamed from Ying’er’s eyes as if tangled and struggling. But in just a moment, her alluring white and tender body involuntarily leaned into Lu Changsheng’s embrace. "Buzz!" The nearby Goddess Furnace trembled slightly, bursting with swirling radiance, engulfing Lu Changsheng and Ying’er. Not long after, the world within the furnace unveiled an endless, breathtakingly beautiful scene.
