Stepping on the Demoness to become the strongest

Chapter 22 Eclipse Queen, Clingy Golden Retriever



By the time everyone returned to the villa, it was already 11 p.m.

Lin Ning, Su Yunjin, and Chen Lingyun all went back to their rooms to sleep. After all, staying up late is beauty's arch-nemesis.

Xie Ruoxi was still working in front of the computer. Her biological clock was about 2-3 hours behind the average person, so it was normal for her to go to bed around 1 a.m.

As for the work content tonight, it mainly involved managing the social media accounts for the Zhenhai Team and increasing the popularity of the other girls—it wasn't necessary to add fuel to the fire since Yan Zhanlong was already extremely popular. The whole team rising to fame together was the sound approach.

Due to the insufficient number of exposures, the popularity of the girls hadn't widened much. If anything had to be said, Sister Zhao was slightly ahead, attracting a portion of fans with ulterior motives with her outstanding figure.

Xie Ruoxi, deep down, disdained this edge-skirting method of gaining fans.

Her current operation strategy was to use Yan Zhanlong's super IP to bring traffic and exposure to the other girls. That's the rightful path for fanbase management!

Downstairs, the sound of opening the door could be heard. Xie Ruoxi went out to look and saw Zhao Yuanzhen returning home with three international friends. She smiled and said,

"The three guest rooms by the stairs on the second floor have been cleared out by Yan Yu. You can pick any of them. Sister Zhao, come here for a second, I have something to tell you..."

Zhao Yuanzhen didn't know what it was about, but she answered and came up the stairs.

Seeing that Zhao Yuanzhen had left, Sophia and Maria quickly exchanged glances, then suddenly said,

"Anna, it's already quite late now. We're going to rest in the guest rooms. You go and have a good catch-up with your boyfriend."

"I told you he's not my boyfriend..." Anna angrily turned her head, only to meet Sophia and Maria's eyes, and immediately froze in place, as if under a spell, her divine sense also becoming vacant.

The witch's battles were known for their strangeness, and Anna had no guard up against her two cousins; she fell directly into the Rasputin Spell Curse they had cast together.

"Humph." Sophia said with a cold laugh, "Little Anna is too naive. We can't take down the Dragon Slayer, but you think we can't deal with you?"

Earlier on the pedestrian street outside, the two had deliberately said they wanted to put the Rasputin Spell Curse on Yan Yu, but in reality, it was to test Anna's reaction. Seeing that their cousin was only embarrassed and annoyed, they guessed that she wasn't averse to becoming more intimate with the man; she was just too proud and too shy to agree.

Since that was the case, let us sisters give you a push from behind!

Being a Rikoku Cultivator, the Dragon Slayer might or might not be affected by the curse, but as long as Anna was cursed and threw herself into the Dragon Slayer's arms, the effect would be more or less the same—our little Anna is cute and has a great figure. How could any man resist not devouring her?

Go, little Anna! Seize that man with all you've got!

The two of them, guiding the dazed and puppet-like Anna, went upstairs and knocked on the door to Yan Yu's room.

As soon as Yan Yu opened the door, they pushed Anna in and then closed the door behind her.

"So we just stay here now?" Maria asked.

"Of course, you don't want any other woman to disturb Anna's first experience, do you?" Sophia shrugged.

Meanwhile, Yan Yu found himself immediately embraced by a bundle of softness and fragrance as soon as he opened the door. The door was then pulled shut from the outside, leaving him quite puzzled.

But he didn't have the time to ponder, because Anna had already pounced and pinned him down on the bed, pressing down on his wrists with strength, her eyes glazed and murky, her cheeks flushed, and her breathing fast and feverish as she murmured,

"Yan Yu, I like you... I like you..."

Yan Yu immediately broke free from her grasp, and with a backhand, he slapped her forehead,

"Wretched beast, what kind of nonsense are you starting!"

Anna's head was struck, but she showed no sign of backing down. Instead, she clung even more greedily, burying herself in Yan Yu's neck, kissing and sniffing wildly.

Yan Yu felt ticklish with her tender breaths on him and was about to kick this annoying golden-haired creature off the bed when a thought suddenly struck him...

Something was amiss.

Definitely amiss.

The previous life's Eclipse Queen was far from this wanton of a character!

Anna entwined around him like an octopus, her head buried in a mess of movements, her cheeks rubbing against his ears. Yan Yu simply sat calmly on the bed, hugging Anna tightly to prevent her from struggling wildly, carefully scanning her body with his Divine Sense.

Let's talk about the past life first. After the Eclipse Queen truly came to power, Lu Country, upon discovering that she even had Lu Country lineage, sent people to try to reconcile with her, discussing the deep connection with the "old country" ... and then the Eclipse Queen had a polite chat with the Lu Country envoy.

What did she say? The Eclipse Queen from the past life said she had made it this far entirely through her own efforts. What had Lu Country given her? They fired my dad, rejected my university offer, and forced my father and me to flee ignominiously to Rasputin. That is truly the "deep connection with the old country.

You needn't worry, I have my own principles, I just don't want to spend my whole life being trampled on by others. Do you think I'm just some pitiful fugitive? I've waited for so many years, just for the chance to fight for my dignity, not to prove that I'm amazing. I want to show those people that the dignity I lost in my home country, I will take back with my own hands abroad!

When the words of the Eclipse Queen spread to the homeland, it made it difficult for the people of Lu Country to criticize her. Middle-aged layoffs and educational hyper-competitiveness were something that nine out of ten Lu Country people could relate to, so no one had grounds to criticize her, and some even sympathized with the girl who had built something for herself in a foreign land.

It was from that point that Yan Yu remembered the name of the Eclipse Queen, Anna.

But looking at the girl in his arms now, pushing and panting, her body burning hot, where was there even a trace of the strong-willed Eclipse Queen from the past life?

Anna, perhaps tired of rubbing against him, not satisfied through the fabric of his clothes, even began to stuff Yan Yu's hand into her neckline.

Yan Yu had no desire to be entangled with her like this. With a resolute pinch, a sharp pain made Anna shiver, and her expression suddenly became much clearer.

Who am I? Where am I? What am I supposed to do?

She didn't stay lucid for long. The light of the Rasputin Spell Curse in her eyes flared up again, quickly dragging her consciousness back into a foggy state.

But that split second was enough for Yan Yu to catch the unusual light in her eyes.

Hmph, she really has been cursed with a spell!

Is it a joke that I, with my masculine charm, need to use a spell to make girls throw themselves into my arms?

Yan Yu pinned Anna down on the bed, carefully staring into her eyes.

It looks like there's a rune inside...

As Anna continued to struggle, Yan Yu could only press her face with his left hand, while gently peeling back her eyelids with his right.

After a while, his left palm suddenly felt a wet and warm licking sensation.

You really are like a golden retriever! Yan Yu grabbed her little tongue with his left hand, tried to push it back into her mouth, but Anna just whimpered and took his finger into her mouth—like a hungry infant sucking on a pacifier, gulping down hungrily.

Bearing the nausea, Yan Yu finally completed his investigation. He plugged her mouth with his left hand while forming a sword finger with his right, pressed it against her forehead, and exclaimed in a low voice. True Yuan poured fiercely into her mind, causing the spell rune to shatter with a sound!

A few minutes earlier, Xie Ruoxi had called Zhao Yuanzhen into her room and informed her about the fan situation.

"...So, what's wrong with attracting fans because you have a good figure?" Zhao Yuanzhen asked, puzzled.

"Skirting the edges can indeed bring in a short-term surge of fans," Xie Ruoxi explained, "but the cost is that fans' impression of you will become fixed. They will label you as a 'benefit goddess,' making it virtually impossible for you to change your image later on. Even if you later show that you're 'capable,' they won't see you as a 'capable cultivator' but as a 'capable benefit goddess'."

"I understand," Zhao Yuanzhen was surprisingly quick to grasp this concept, "It's like what people often say online, 'No matter how good the plot is in an adult film, in the end, it's still an adult film', right?"

"Exactly," Xie Ruoxi said with surprise, "That's the idea. For us girls, some labels are absolutely untouchable."

"Hmm," Zhao Yuanzhen didn't hesitate, "Then let's not operate in that direction."

"Of course, I need Sister Zhao's agreement," Xie Ruoxi giggled, "I got it. So, if someone compliments your figure later on and tries to start a trend in that direction, I'll just mute them."

"Mute away," Zhao Yuanzhen waved her hand dismissively.

As she left Xie Ruoxi's room to find Yan Yu for their daily dual cultivation session, she saw two witches sneaking around outside Yan Yu's room.

Zhao Yuanzhen: ???

"What are you doing?" she approached and asked.

Sophia and Maria exchanged glances; the latter immediately put on a full, smiling face, trying to use body language and facial expressions to deflect Zhao Yuanzhen.

But when it came to her partner's affairs, the Demonic Sect Enchantress finally had a moment of intellectual clarity. Ignoring what Maria intended to say, she activated the Wood Bending Charm and roughly shoved the two women aside.

Then she pushed the door open with force.
