Jiang Yuan’s body moved again, emitting a faint blue light.

In mid-air, he managed to grab her slender, fair neck.

Looking at her pained expression, Jiang Yuan casually asked, “Mu Qianru, how should I deal with you?”

Her eyes were glistening with unshed tears.

Jiang Yuan’s last punch felt like a prehistoric beast had rammed into her waist.

The power from that blow spread throughout her body, causing waves of intense pain in her bones.

Hearing Jiang Yuan’s words, she forced herself to endure the pain, saying: “I meant no great harm, I simply coveted your wealth!”

“Spare my life!” she pleaded pitifully.

“Stop your charm!” Jiang Yuan harshly demanded.

Feeling somewhat wronged, she explained, “I practice the Six Desires Heavenly Demon Arts!”

Jiang Yuan looked at her, lost in thought.

Mu Qianru couldn’t die just yet!

As the only Holy Daughter of the Heavenly Demon Sect, she was unlike the disciples of the Sunset Sect!

Even the deaths of a few disciples from the Sunset Sect drew an Elder to monitor him.

Let alone Mu Qianru!

If she remained alive, it would be just a youthful struggle, and the older generation most likely wouldn’t step in.

But if she died, there would certainly be those seeking revenge for her, especially those from the Heavenly Demon Sect, who are known for their unorthodox actions!

Moreover, the Heavenly Demon Sect is far superior to the Sunset Sect, and her master is a renowned female Demon Head, a practitioner of the Dharma Realm in Qianyuan Kingdom.

Considering this, Jiang Yuan looked at her.

He thought to himself that he couldn’t let her go either. The Sect Leader had previously said that the news of his breakthrough must be kept a secret for now.

Until the dispute concerning the spiritual stone mine was settled, the news of his attainment of the Spiritual Sea Realm should not be spread.

If Mu Qianru were let go, she would have six days to potentially let news of his breakthrough reach the ears of the Sect Master of the Sunset Sect.

Therefore, keeping her with him for the time being was the best course of action.

But he must have a means to control her, an opportunity to test an idea he had.

Mu Qianru watched as Jiang Yuan contemplated, a knot of anxiety forming in her heart.

At this point, she knew that her life and death hinged on Jiang Yuan’s decision.

If she could maintain a distance, she would have thought of struggle. But up close and personal in combat, she had no hope of winning.

Moreover, she was already in Jiang Yuan’s grasp with absolutely no room to resist.

Just as Mu Qianru’s mind was filled with unease, Jiang Yuan loosened his grip.

She immediately fell to the ground, her legs curled up to one side, one hand supporting herself from the ground and the other covering her throat as she coughed harshly, her mouth slightly open as she gasped for air.

The anxiety she’d felt slowly dissipated. Thank goodness, he wasn’t planning to kill her!

At that moment, a drop of golden blood slowly congealed on Jiang Yuan’s palm.

This was a drop of essence blood that he had forced out of his body.

From the day when the Dragon Elephant Tyrant Body Art took effect and merged with his blood, he realized that each drop of his blood, every fragment of his flesh carried a subtle part of his will.

Especially his essence blood, it was closely linked to him.

After resting for a while, Mu Qianru continued to have a small cough as she turned to look at Jiang Yuan.

Just then, Jiang Yuan flicked his hand, his palm covering her line of sight, and the golden-tinged drop of essence blood instantly flew into her mouth.

She was dumbstruck, feeling as if a mercury-like substance had dropped into her throat, like a small sun radiating heat.

She immediately extended her finger into her throat to induce vomiting, but even after a bout of dry heaving, nothing came up.

“What did you make me eat?” She asked, her expression slightly panicked.
