Chapter 329 - 327: Stay Away from That Woman

Yang Xun lowered his head, his lips gently landing on her shoulder.

Wen Ruyu’s body gave a sudden jolt, and she let out a short, startled gasp. But instead of pushing him away, she turned her head toward him. Her tear-glistening eyes looked straight at him, her breathing as heavy and hurried as if she had just sprinted a long distance.

"Don’t... don’t stop... I can’t take this."

Yang Xun looked at her flushed face and sped up the movement of his fingertips.

"Ah... mmm..."

Wen Ruyu let out a soft moan. A dense wave of Primordial Yin Qi drifted from her body and was swiftly absorbed into Yang Xun’s own. He did not rush to refine it, temporarily storing it within his Dantian instead.

Yang Xun cradled Wen Ruyu’s head against his chest and asked softly, "Did that feel good?"

Wen Ruyu knew exactly what had just happened. Too embarrassed to make a sound, she leaned limply against him. In her past relationships, she had engaged in heavy petting with boyfriends, but today felt extraordinarily pleasurable—so much so that it felt as if her soul had been stripped away. She recalled the boyfriends she had dated over the years. Whenever they reached this stage and wanted to take things a step further, she would transform, terrifying those men into fleeing in a panic.

"Can you stand up? It’s time for acupuncture," Yang Xun said.

Wen Ruyu nodded, but her body felt like jelly, entirely drained of strength. Just as she tried to use the edge of the bed to push herself up, her hand slipped, and she fell right onto Yang Xun. She clearly noticed a particular physical reaction of his. Her beautiful eyes widened, and startled, she hastily scrambled backward.

Seeing that she was about to slide off the examination couch, Yang Xun reacted with lightning speed. He grabbed her slender waist and pulled her back into his arms. As two soft mounds pressed against him, Yang Xun was so satisfied he almost laughed out loud.

"Thank you. You can let go of me now," Wen Ruyu said coyly. Though she spoke, she couldn’t help but glance downward, utterly shocked in her heart. Having had several boyfriends, she had naturally seen a man’s body before. But she never expected Yang Xun to be so exceptionally well-endowed.

Yang Xun looked completely nonchalant. He chuckled softly and said, "Sorry, it’s a physiological reaction. I can’t control it."

"I didn’t ask you to control it." Wen Ruyu blurted it out, but immediately realized how inappropriate that sounded.

Seeing her look of sheer chagrin, Yang Xun couldn’t help but laugh. He decided not to tease her any further. "Stand steady. I’m going to administer the acupuncture now."

As he spoke, he took out the silver needles from a wooden box. Wen Ruyu picked up a hairpin to gather up her long hair, looking at Yang Xun with a bit of helplessness. Holding a silver needle, he flicked his fingers, and the needle pierced her tender skin.

Wen Ruyu felt only a slight prick, akin to a mosquito bite.

"Don’t be nervous. I’ll try my best to keep it painless," Yang Xun said gently.

Wen Ruyu’s pretty face grew even redder as a few R-rated images popped into her head. She suddenly felt it was a bit unfair. Yang Xun had seen all of her, yet she hadn’t seen his body. Only she knew that despite looking as though she had no worldly desires, she actually yearned deeply for romance and intimacy. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have kept trying to find boyfriends despite knowing about her bizarre condition.

Half a month ago, she had almost given away her virginity, but at the most critical moment, she transformed into a man. It terrified her young boyfriend so much that he wilted on the spot.

"Spread your legs a little wider." Yang Xun spoke up again, shattering Wen Ruyu’s wandering thoughts.

Her face flushed scarlet as she parted her legs slightly. Looking down, she saw Yang Xun bending over and moving closer. As his burning breath brushed against her skin, the yearning deep inside her grew even stronger. In truth, with Yang Xun’s level of skill, there was absolutely no need to get so close. A simple flick of his fingers could accurately insert the needles. However, he had his own selfish motives. He deliberately leaned in close for a better look and even ran his hands over her body under the guise of locating the acupoints.

"Mmm... please... stop touching me." Wen Ruyu panted softly. The sensations she had felt during the massage earlier surged up once again.

"Did I hurt you?" Yang Xun feigned ignorance.

"No, it’s just... really ticklish."

Wen Ruyu’s legs went weak, and she was dripping with fragrant sweat. Finally, just as she was on the verge of collapsing, the acupuncture session came to an end.

With a sweep of his large hand, Yang Xun retrieved all thirty-six silver needles and helped Wen Ruyu lie down. Panting heavily, she was pleasantly surprised to find that the restless sensation within her had slowly faded. It felt as if a heavy shackle had been lifted from her body, making her feel incredibly light.

"That feeling of being on the verge of transforming at any moment... it’s gone." Wen Ruyu propped herself up and looked down at her hands and body. After confirming that she hadn’t changed back, her eyes suddenly reddened. She looked up at Yang Xun, her voice trembling uncontrollably. "Thank you."

"You’re welcome." Yang Xun withdrew his hand and stood up, rolling his slightly sore wrists. "But you have to remember, this is only a temporary fix. That power is still inside you. If it’s not extracted completely, it will lose control again. You need to keep your emotions stable. Don’t get too excited or nervous, and refrain from any intimate contact with men for the time being. Otherwise, the transformation will trigger again."

Wen Ruyu nodded and reached up to gather her messy hair. Her gaze fell upon him. "Could you leave me your contact information? That way, I can reach out to you anytime if there’s a problem."

"Of course." Yang Xun recited his phone number to her.

"Regarding the three medicinal materials you mentioned earlier, I don’t have any concrete leads on the Nine Nether Cold Jade Grass and the Purple Cloud Soul Condensing Flower just yet. But as for the Green Blood Dragon Saliva Fragrance... I do have some news." Wen Ruyu’s tone turned serious. "An old client of mine once mentioned that someone in the southwest region has it. I’ll need some time to track down the exact location for you."

"Alright, there’s no rush," Yang Xun nodded. The Green Blood Dragon Saliva Fragrance wasn’t the hardest to find among the five ingredients, but obtaining it here would still be an unexpected and welcome surprise.

Wen Ruyu draped her clothes over herself and stood up, the flush still lingering on her cheeks. "I’ll buy all of your items at the prices we agreed upon earlier. Just take this receipt downstairs."

Saying this, she quickly pulled out a receipt and scribbled on it. She kept her head lowered, her hair cascading down slightly. Even though her clothes were disheveled, there was nothing gaudy about her appearance; instead, she exuded a subtle, captivating charm that quietly seeped into one’s heart. A woman like this was a natural-born stunner!

Yang Xun stared at her intently. When Wen Ruyu looked up, their eyes met. She blushed and handed him the receipt. Feeling a bit awkward, Yang Xun turned and walked toward the door.

"Mr. Yang."

The woman’s charming voice rang out from behind. Yang Xun paused his steps and looked back. She stood by the window, her figure silhouetted against the light. There was a hint of solemnity in her eyes. "I can’t disclose client information, but I still want to warn you: stay away from that woman."

Yang Xun looked into her serious eyes and gave a slight nod. "Thank you."

He pushed the door open and went downstairs. Only when the faint, sweet scent of her was gone could he finally breathe smoothly again. Seeing him come down, the middle-aged man greeted him with a beaming smile.

Yang Xun handed over the receipt, and the money was swiftly transferred to his account. A total of thirty-seven million. He was officially a rich man now.

Although he had turned down the one hundred million, Yang Xun was very satisfied. After all, he had also secured the bronze cauldron and the bamboo slips.
