Chapter 715 – Trapped Mind Technique

　　”Then there was nothing more to say, I returned within the Moon Covering Sect, and waited for the Sect to get a foothold in the Northern Liang Country before sneaking into the Yue Country to look for you once more. But the news I got was terrible, I only knew that you seemed to have been hunted down by the Ghost Spirit Sect once more, and nothing was known about the specific circumstances. Soon after, I was discovered by people from the Devil’s Way and had to return to the Nine Kingdoms Alliance. After that, there has been no news of you, I thought that in all likelihood you had fallen, and the demons about you gradually faded away. Further after that, by a fluke, I was able to condense my YuanYing into a YuanYing, and I smoothly became an elder of the Mooncovering Sect, and have been doing so until now.” Nangong Wan said calmly.

　　Han Li listened to Nangong Wan’s leisurely narration, his complexion then changed several times, back then, this woman did so many things for him, he could not be unaware of it, and looked at Nangong’s eyes with more than a hint of warmth.

　　”That Wei Li Chen is what happened?” After a long time, Han Li still couldn’t help but ask.

　　”Wei Li Chen! He was someone I unintentionally met during an outward journey several years ago. I don’t really like this person because this person can almost be described as a typical hypocrite, graceful on the surface but with a belly full of male thieves and female prostitutes behind his back. I heard that there are as many as seven or eight so-called female disciples alone, and I also heard that this person seems to have secretly practiced the art of harvesting yin and replenishing yang. Would propose to me, I guess nine times out of ten, he didn’t have any good thoughts for me either, so the first time he proposed to me, I balked.” Nangong Wan said with a cold smile on her face.

　　”Rejected? Then how did it turn out like this now?” Hearing this, Han Li asked with a strange expression on his face.

　　Nangong Wan didn’t directly answer this question, but instead suddenly asked, “Do you know the three major YuanYing cultivators of Tiannan?”

　　”This is naturally known. The Positive Devil and the Nine Kingdoms Alliance each have a cultivator whose cultivation has reached the late YuanYing stage and is just one step away from entering the Transformation Stage? Otherwise, the several major powers wouldn’t have been able to maintain a balance until now. As for us in the Nine Kingdoms Alliance, we have a couple of mid-YuanYing practitioners who are proficient in joint surgery, and with the two of them joining forces, they are barely able to withstand a late-YuanYing practitioner. What, could Wei Li Chen be related to one of them?” Han Li asked with a somber expression, his heart vaguely harboring some not-so-good premonitions.

　　”Not bad, this Wei Li Chen’s own uncle is Wei Wu Ya of the three great cultivators. This Wei Wu Ya, as the Supreme Elder of the Nine Kingdoms Alliance, cultivates a poisonous Dao technique that is rarely known, and can take another person’s life invisibly with a raise of his hand. The magnitude of the divine power is far beyond the imagination of ordinary cultivators.” Nangong Wan said in a low voice, her ten jade fingers intertwined and entangled together, her face appearing to smile bitterly.

　　”Could it be that Wei Wu Ya personally made things difficult for you!” The corners of Han Li’s mouth twitched the following, and his eyes flickered with fury as he said in a cold voice.

　　”That’s not true, but Wei Wu Ya did intervene in this matter. Do you know that the current Grand Elder of the Mooncatcher Sect is not the previous Grand Elder, but has been replaced with a senior sister from the past. Although this elder sister’s cultivation is not low, but she has a strong heart of profit, and I usually have some disagreements, although there is another elder to mediate, but the relationship between the two of us is extremely bad!” Nangong Wan said with a sulky face.

　　Han Li’s face sank, knowing that Nangong Wan had reached a critical point.

　　Sure enough, after Nangong Wan gritted her jade teeth, she continued:

　　”After I refused Wei Li Chen’s marriage proposal several times in a row, I don’t know what method Wei Li Chen used to personally invite Wei Wu Ya to find this senior sister of mine.

　　Although I don’t know what the two of them discussed, just half a year later during the reincarnation period of my Vegetable Maiden Reincarnation Technique, she suddenly stepped in and restrained me, then forced me to marry Wei Li Chen.”

　　”This senior sister of yours, her brain isn’t broken, is it, that she would use such tactics against a fellow YuanYing cultivator?” After Han Li froze for a moment, it was a bit hard to believe it.

　　”You’re right! I didn’t expect her to be crazy to such an extent either. But the conditions that that Wei Wuya proposed were indeed hard for her to refuse. I later realized that as long as the Mooncovering Sect agreed to this marriage, not only would it allow the Mooncovering Sect and even the six sects to jump out of the Northern Liang Country to develop, but it even said that Wei LiChen was willing to separate from the Harmonization Sect on this matter after marrying me and join the Mooncovering Sect to come. There is this kind of beautiful thing of killing two birds with one stone, no wonder she spared no means. She even didn’t care if I agreed or not, so she first released the news that I agreed to double cultivation with Wei Li Chen, and also prepared to organize a celebration, wanting to make this matter a raw deal, so at that time, if I just wanted to back out, I wouldn’t be able to do it.” The corner of Nangong Wan’s mouth curled up, revealing a sneer as she said.

　　”So you’ve never agreed to a marriage, and you deliberately said something about marrying someone in the beginning, making my heart thump!” Han Li sniffed and said with great joy.

　　”I was going to ask you! Since you already formed a YuanYing several years ago, why didn’t you come to me earlier. If you had come a year earlier, you probably wouldn’t have caused this many incidents to come out.” Nangong Wan blankly glanced at Han Li and said without good humor.

　　”It’s not that I don’t want to find you, but I ……” Han Li was stunned and opened his mouth to explain something, but it was indeed a bit strange when he thought about it carefully.

　　Although he vaguely think, Nangong Wan should be their own really like people, but somehow always did not want to directly touch the feelings, if not suddenly learned that Nangong to marry the news, I’m afraid that he still has a trace of uncertainty in his heart, do not dare to directly face this emotion.

　　Han Li on his own face is not timed, Nangong Wan but sweetly stood up, a few steps to the front of the Han Li, looking directly at his eyes said: “In fact, I and your situation is similar. Although our experience and aptitude are far beyond that of mortals, in the matter of emotions, it’s the first time, and we are both somewhat unfamiliar and fearful. Even though you and I have both left deep traces in each other’s hearts, the two of us are not ordinary worldly men and women after all, and it’s impossible for us to quickly burn all of our emotions for the sake of a short moment of flare before releasing them to the fullest extent like they do. In order to best cultivate the state of mind, we cultivators are forced to fade and bury most of our emotions deep in our hearts. After that, I’m afraid that what is left behind is still more of the blandness and permanence of respecting each other as guests. So when I learned the news that you were still alive, while I was happy, I still carefully considered it for two days and two nights before I finally decided to accept you according to my heart.”

　　After gently finishing her words, Nangong Wan stretched out her slender hand and held one of Han Li’s palms.

　　Han Li was silent for a moment, then without a word, his other hand also hitched onto it, feeling the delicate and slippery nature of a daughter’s palm, a cozy feeling actually rising in his heart.

　　Nangong Wan’s face flushed red, quickly drew her hands back, and glared at Han Li. Han Li did not think, but a slight smile suddenly said, “Wan Er, although you are trapped here, but look at you so calm look, should have already got out of the good strategy is, otherwise will not meet so far, but also a trace of anxiety color did not.”

　　Nangong Wan heard this, pursed her lips and smiled, her starry eyes vaguely showed a wry color and said: “You react very quickly! Indeed, although I was placed under house arrest in the cave, but only a few of the higher-ups know about this matter, ordinary disciples do not know about this matter. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have received a direct message from that master nephew Tang. But for fear of me escaping, they put several types of restraints on me. Other prohibitions are nothing, they do not know that my reincarnation of the first into the stage of infancy, a lot of incredible aptitude, these ordinary prohibitions can not be trapped me, I spend some time at any time, can restore the original power. But the only thing is that the senior sister personally under the trap heart art, really not very good to crack. This kind of spell, is she prepared to use in the ceremony, I have been refused to agree to the marriage, she will use this technique to temporarily manipulate me, specially with her own blood planted this prohibition. And the key to this restraint lies in a forbidden token, not to destroy this device, I just have to be controlled by it as long as I’m within a hundred miles. It is good that the difference between my cultivation and hers is not too great, this kind of control, can only control some simple movements, any mana in my body, she is not driven.”

　　”Then your original intention was ……,” Han Li asked curiously.

　　”Hee hee! My original intention was to return my mana by surprise a few days before the approaching Grand Ceremony, at their most lax moment, and then immediately flee far away. As long as it is not within the control range of that forbidden token, she can’t do anything about me. But now since you are here, this problem will naturally be handed over to you, after all, you are the man who is going to marry me. And I can hear that you easily defeated a YuanYing practitioner of the same rank, you should have some means.” Nangong Wan laughed softly and said easily.

　　”Mind Trapping Technique? This prohibition is indeed very troublesome, other than destroying that token, there is no other simple way to solve it.” Han Li frowned and murmured with a pensive expression on his face.

　　”There’s really no way even if, the two of us will leave the Mooncover Sect far away.” Nangong Wan’s bright eyes flickered as she said carelessly.

　　”It doesn’t matter! Isn’t it just a forbidden token? It should be in your senior sister’s hands, right? I’ll go fetch it and that’s it, and by the way, I’ll get rid of it for you!” Han Li’s eyes narrowed slightly, and after a ray of cold light flashed by, he said with great bravado.

　　”I’m just saying it to try your heart out, I don’t really have the intention of asking you to steal the token. That senior sister of mine has already cultivated to the middle stage of YuanYing, and her aptitude is not comparable to early stage cultivators like me, so the two of us should just sneak away. Big deal, I’ll spend more than ten more years to refine this prohibition a little bit is all.” Nangong Wan shook her head, pursed her lips and said with a smile, a hint of naughty color appearing on her delicate face.

　　Han Li was speechless, and was instantly reminded of the quirky and elfin young girl when he first met this woman that day!
