Soul Land 3: Legend Of The Dragon King

After establishing that plan, the awkwardness in his heart was significantly alleviated. Everything would be fine as long as Lan Fuozi didn't find out that he was the one who had taken off and put on her clothes for her.

As for the fact that she was a woman, he would just pretend to be oblivious to that.

With the lightning barrier he had created, surveillance most likely wouldn't have been able to glean Lan Fuozi's body.

"Done," the Beautiful Silk Tulip said.

Tang Wulin reacted extremely quickly, immediately rushing over to Lan Fuozi before scooping her up from the ground while picking up her strapping with his other hand.

Right at this moment, he suddenly detected that something seemed to be amiss. Due to the fact that he was using his spiritual power in the place of his eyes, his senses were particularly sharp, and he could feel a fierce gust of wind blowing toward him...

"Slap!" 

A vicious slap landed on Tang Wulin's face, causing him to lose his balance and tumble onto the ground, directly on top of Lan Fuozi's naked body.

He reflexively opened his eyes and was greeted by the sight of a pair of furious blue eyes that were virtually releasing flames!

Tang Wulin's face was stinging with pain. This was the first time he had ever been slapped in the face!

Lan Fuozi still had a set of masculine facial features, but Tang Wulin could clearly feel an extremely supple and delicate body beneath his own, and there were a pair of soft, warm cushions pressed against his chest.

Tang Wulin immediately grabbed on to Lan Fuozi's wrists before she could attack any further. "Stop! I'm curing your poisoning!" He pressed her wrists down onto the ground, but that only made their position even more intimate.

"Get off me, you bastard!" Lan Fuozi was so enraged she felt as if she were about to go insane, and her body was trembling uncontrollably with shame.

"Alright, but don't attack me anymore! I really was saving you just now. Don't you remember how you got poisoned? If it weren't for me, you would've been unconscious forever. How can you repay my kindness with such ingratitude?" Tang Wulin hurriedly said.

Lan Fuozi faltered slightly upon hearing this, and her memories slowly returned to her.

She recalled that she only just barely managed to escape from the Man-eating Nightmare Flowers, but she was very heavily poisoned at that point and fled toward a random direction in a blind panic, alerting many soul beasts in the process. All of these soul beasts surrounded her, and she was forced to battle them while the toxins gradually took effect within her body. Right as she was about to be overwhelmed by the soul beasts, she finally lost control.

Currently, she was in an extremely feeble state, and she could feel that she had severely overexerted her own spiritual power. Otherwise, that slap would've been a lot more powerful. However, she could also feel that the euphoric drowsy sensation had faded, so it did indeed appear that she had been cured.

"Do you remember what happened now? You were poisoned by Nightmare Toxins that had seeped into your skin, so I had to take off your clothes to expel the toxins; I didn't do it to take advantage of you. I didn't even know you were a woman, so I certainly had no intention of doing anything to you. I discovered that you were a woman while taking off your clothes, but what was I supposed to do? Just watch you die? If you've calmed down, then I'll let you go, but don't attack me again! I don't beat women, but if you insist on attacking me, I'll have to restrain you by force."

Tang Wulin had completely taken the moral high ground, and Lan Fuozi's panted heavily as she bit down on her lower lip and gradually calmed herself down. "Alright, now get off me!"

Only then did Tang Wulin release her before quickly springing back and turning so that his back was facing her.

He pointed at the net of lightning around them, and said, "I used my martial soul to conceal the two of us, so the surveillance in this plane wouldn't have been able to see you. I had my eyes closed the entire time as well, so I didn't see anything, either. Hurry up and put on your clothes now."

Lan Fuozi didn't respond, but Tang Wulin could hear the sound of clothes rustling behind him.

He was glad that he didn't have to put on her chest strapping for her, but this situation was even more awkward.

Tang Wulin grumbled in his heart, "Why didn't you tell me that she would wake up so quickly?"

The Beautiful Silk Tulip replied in an innocent manner, "I didn't know she would wake up this quickly, either, and you didn't ask me, Boss!"

"Don't call me boss!" Tang Wulin snapped internally.

After a while, the sound of rustling clothes ceased. Tang Wulin had constantly been surveying the situation with his spiritual power in case Lan Fuozi suddenly attacked him again. If she did that, he would immediately run away. In her current feeble state, she would only be able to muster up around 10% to 20% of her power at most, so she posed no threat to him.

In any case, he hadn't done anything wrong, so he certainly didn't owe her anything.

It was a good thing to save someone in a dire situation, but that slap to the face really was unwarranted! Tang Wulin couldn't help but think of the fact that even Gu Yuena had never slapped him like this before.

"I'm done." Lan Fuozi's cold voice rang out from behind him, and only then did he turn back around.

She had already returned to her handsome masculine appearance, and there were no longer any discernible feminine traits about her. In terms of disguise skills, she was no less proficient than Tang Wulin.

At this moment, she was appraising Tang Wulin with a complex expression, and her breathing was still slightly faster than normal.

"You better not tell anyone about this or spoil my participation in this joust for a spouse event! Otherwise, I'll kill you!"

Tang Wulin rolled his eyes in response. "If I knew you were such an ungrateful person, I would've left you to die. Don't worry, I won't report you or anything; it's not like Gu Yuena would fall for a woman anyway. This is where we part ways; just pretend as if you never ran into me."

He waved a hand through the air as he spoke to withdraw his lightning net, then immediately began to depart.

"Hey!" Lan Fuozi called out in an urgent voice.

"What?" Tang Wulin turned around again.

A slightly awkward look appeared on Lan Fuozi's face, and she said, "I'm currently very feeble; can you protect me until I recover before you leave?"

Tang Wulin rolled his eyes in response. "If your life comes under threat, you'll be teleported out of here."

"Then why wasn't I teleported out of here earlier?" Lan Fuozi countered with a gloomy expression.

Tang Wulin faltered slightly upon hearing this. Indeed, why HADN'T she been teleported away earlier? Could it be that that poisoning didn't count?

A cold look appeared on Lan Fuozi's face as she said, "If you don't want to, then you can leave."

Tang Wulin replied, "So this is how you beg people for favors? Fine, I'm leaving now."

"Hey, don't actually leave!" Lan Fuozi hurriedly rushed over to him, but she was still in a very feeble state, so she tripped over her own feet and began to fall toward Tang Wulin.

Tang Wulin stepped away to avoid her before laying a hand onto her shoulder to help her back up into a standing position.

"Don't you have any chivalry?" Lan Fuozi's breathing quickened even further, and her face also turned quite pale.

Tang Wulin retorted, "Who says I'm a chivalrous man? Even if I were, I wouldn't waste my chivalry on someone so ungrateful." Tang Wulin pointed at his own face as he spoke, and his cheek was still stinging from the earlier slap.

Lan Fuozi blushed slightly upon hearing this. "Don't be so petty; how was I supposed to know you were helping me in that situation?"

Tang Wulin sighed, "Fine, I'll stay here while you recover. After you're done, we'll part ways and pretend we never met each other here."

He made his way over to a patch of flat ground as he spoke, then sat down with his legs crossed and closed his eyes.

Even though he had done nothing wrong, he had indeed touched and seen some things that he shouldn't have, so he was doing this to repay the favor that he owed her.

Lan Fuozi really wanted to give Tang Wulin a beating at the sight of his disdainful expression, but she knew that she would only be making a fool out of herself in her current state.

Thus, she gritted her teeth and also sat down on the ground with her eyes closed as she began to cultivate.
