Chapter 2357: Honey Trap

“Didn’t you all want to save the Lord of Slaughter? Then we didn’t come to the wrong place. He's being suppressed under these Great Snowy Mountains,” Zu An said casually. As he looked at the vast mountains and fluttering snow, his expression carried a bit of sorrow.

This world said that the Great Snowy Mountains were a place where no one could survive; many powerful cultivators had come here in search of treasure, and yet weren’t able to return home. However, his first memory of the Great Snowy Mountains was sweet, because this was where he and Yan Xuehen had exchanged their love. He still remembered the smoothness and wetness of that hot spring, as well as the deepest warmth of big sister Yan, who was normally like a frozen mountain.

But later, he had experienced the great battle of the Sealed Land. He'd rushed all the way here, and Qiu Honglei had almost lost her life here. He'd also learned that the mysterious Snow Lady was actually Chu Chuyan, but then he'd been forced to watch as she disappeared right in front of his eyes. Even though they had reunited again later, the pain of eternal separation still lingered in his heart.

“Young master, is something wrong?” Ji Xiaoxi asked out of concern when she saw that the man next to her had suddenly stiffened, and that there was a pained look on his face. She always reflexively called him 'big brother Zu', but thankfully, she endured the urge this time.

“I’m fine.” Zu An returned a gentle smile.

Nearby, Salamay couldn't help but cry. “Dad, you’ve suffered a lot over the years.”

Mojard and the others had looks of grief and anger on their faces. They already felt uncomfortable after staying here for just a short time, and yet their late master had actually suffered here for thousands of years.

Just then, someone suddenly cried out, “My cultivation seems to have become lower!”

“Mine too!” The others also cried out. They were starting to lose their composure.

After all, the Monster World was a place where the strong reigned. Being weak meant that you would be enslaved by the strong or even straight up eaten.

“Everyone, don’t panic. We're being limited by the will of this world, which is why our cultivation has decreased. Our cultivation will return once we leave this world," Zu an said.

Unlike the others, Zu An’s group felt a sense of relief, as if they had returned to their own hometown. In the Monster World, Pei Mianman and the other women in particular were much weaker than the powerful cultivators around them, but in this world, even though there was still some difference, they now still had a fighting chance. They even had a feeling that even without Zu An’s help, they would be able to protect themselves against any member of Salamay’s group one on one.

Salamay spoke up as well. “What Donaire says is correct. Don't panic, everyone. Didn’t the Monster Lord send so many powerful individuals to this world before? They also went through similar experiences.”

“But they seem to have all died here,” one of her subordinates said quietly.

Salamay was briefly dumbstruck. She said with a cold snort, “In this kind of snow-covered place, as long as we don’t make too much noise, none of the powerful natives of this world will notice us.”

“It’s mainly this world’s regent or whatever. If he notices us, we’ll be in danger.” Mojard was a bit worried.

The other subordinates also nodded. Too many of the Monster World’s powerful cultivators had died here. The regent was someone who had started being used as a scary story to silence children at night. He was already a terrifying being second only to the Monster Lord. Even though they all knew that he'd only managed to kill so many powerful individuals by relying on the world’s restrictions, they had now entered this world as well.

Pei Mianman and the other women really wanted to laugh, but couldn't when they saw how quiet all the monsters were due to Zu An’s infamy. They all looked at Zu An with admiration.

“That regent guy is strong, but there’s no need for us to be so scared. We have many strong individuals with us too. Even if we encounter him, there's only death awaiting him.” Salamay was a bit unhappy with the decrease in morale. “Furthermore, I can feel that my current strength hasn’t been reduced as much as I imagined.”

Mojard’s eyes lit up when he heard that. “That’s right. It’s not as absurd as the intelligence mentioned previously. It seems as if those guys were exaggerating to cover up their incompetence.”

They all sensed that their remaining cultivation was a bit stronger than they'd imagined. They all cursed the Monster Lord for giving them false intelligence.

Salamay had a mocking expression as she said, “The Monster Lord sent so many powerful experts, and yet they all died here. He’d naturally try to make the enemy look stronger to save face. We really were fools for believing him.”

When they looked at her, Pei Mianman and the women felt a bit of sympathy.

This woman might not know just how strong Ah Zu is in this world…

Fortunately, Salamay wasn’t the egotistical type and decided to gather information first. “Donaire, you’ve visited this world before, and I heard that you’ve even met that regent. How strong is he?”

“I think he’s about the same as me?” Zu An thought for a bit before speaking the truth.

Salamay’s group roared with laughter when they heard that. There was no need to be scared at all, then. Donaire did have some skill with formations, but in terms of fighting strength, any random one of them would be stronger than him.

The True Demon elders had ugly expressions.

Is our young master really that weak in your eyes?

Even though they knew they were supposed to be angry, for some reason, when they heard what their young master just said, they felt a mysterious sense of relief.

When they saw their reaction, Pei Mianman and the other women snickered inwardly.

Keep laughing, because soon, you won’t be able to anymore.

Ji Xiaoxi couldn't help but give Zu An a look.

Big brother Zu is still such a troublemaker.

She suddenly felt as if she'd returned to when they first met. She grinned when she remembered the things that had happened back then. There was a hint of sweetness in her expression.

Salamay gave Zu An a doubtful look. “But I recall that you fled from the regent in a sorry state, and was forced to flee back to our world. How could his strength be about the same as yours?”

“I was talking about my strength in the Monster World. My strength was lowered a lot in this world, and he had access to a lot of forces and resources in this world, so I was obviously no match,” Zu An calmly replied.

Salamay nodded to express her acknowledgement of this explanation. However, she suddenly said, “Right, I heard that regent seems to be a playboy. He seems to be even better than you in this aspect.”

Zu An was speechless.

Pei Mianman and the others almost burst into laughter. This was the first time they found Salamay so agreeable. Even the usually aloof Jiang Luofu had a hint of a smile in her expression.

Zu An could only brace himself and explain, “He does indeed have a lot of women at his side.”

“How old is he? How does he look?” Salamay paused for a moment and looked at Zu An before adding, “How are his looks compared to yours?”

Zu An was a bit confused.

Why is she suddenly so interested in this kind of gossip?

Out of helplessness, he could only reply, “Um… Maybe around twenty years old? He looks like jade trees amid a breeze, handsome and confident, loved by all… I am far inferior to him.” ƒrēewebnoѵёl.cσm

When they heard him praise himself, Pei Mianman and the women exchanged a look. They could all see each other enduring the urge to ridicule him.

Ji Xiaoxi’s little face turned a bit red. She complained inwardly that her big brother Zu really was… shameless.

“That’s good then.” Salamay nodded. She released a sigh of relief.

Pei Mianman and the women immediately grew vigilant. They suddenly had a bad premonition.

“Why is the first miss interested in these things?” Zu An asked, feeling a bit confused. This woman was asking really random questions. Was she plotting something?

“If this trip doesn’t end up working out and we reach a moment of crisis, I might be able to use a honey trap to seduce him.” Judging from her tone, Salamay thought this was obvious and natural. “I was worried that he was ugly like the Monster Lord and that I would be disgusted. If he’s really handsome, that’s even better.”

Zu An was bewildered.

Pei Mianman and the other women were alarmed.
