Fighting Soul Clan Demoness

Chapter 190 The Price of Soul Manipulation

"Snapped!"

"Snapped!!!"

Two loud thumps were heard, and Xiao Yan's slap landed on the sand beside him, and a red slap mark appeared on his face.

Hun Ruoruo turned over and sat up with lingering fear, rubbing her red little hands, her eyes cold and fierce.

She panted slightly, glanced at Xiao Yan's actions, and then said coldly: "Are you deliberately teasing me?"

"Ah"

Xiao Yan pulled at his face, which had become stiff from being slapped, and sneered without hesitation, "You're allowed to play tricks on me, but I'm not allowed to play tricks on you? I have a temper too, okay?"

Hun Ruoruo chose not to respond to this, her eyes flashing with murderous intent: "Xiao Yan, I say it again, I am not your confidante. Although I will do many things for you, if you dare to set your sights on me, I guarantee that you will regret it!"

Although she knew that Xiao Yan did not really want to humiliate her, the previous situation of being unable to do anything still frightened Hun Ruoruo. She was shocked to find that this guy had the means to subdue her under certain conditions since he had no idea.

Thinking of Xiao Yan's previous words, Hun Ruoruo even felt a little inexplicably aggrieved for a moment. Although she believed that her plan would be successful, the many costs and efforts she paid were far beyond what ordinary people could compare to. How could it be as easy as he said?

First, she was busy running around in the desert, and then, in order to help him obtain the strange fire, he played around with Gu He and the snake people. Hun Ruoruo herself had never devoted such energy to anyone other than her mother.

But Xiao Yan was not grateful at all. Instead, he chose to teach her a lesson after obtaining the strange fire!

Touching his nose, Xiao Yan looked at the girl's expression that showed murderous intent towards him for the first time, and he couldn't help but regain some clarity of mind. He sighed softly and nodded in agreement.

"I'm sorry, Ruoruo, I did go a little too far earlier, and my mind is a little out of control."

"The brain is out of control? Haha, I don't know which brain is out of control. Does it look good?" Hun Ruoruo sneered.

She is very aware of her own charm, otherwise she would not use her appearance and words to seduce others and achieve her goals.

She has never cared much about actions like throwing a wink or showing some skin. Even if it was the extremely revealing snakeman costume, if it weren't for the scar, she would even want to take the initiative to try it.

After all, since you are so beautiful in this life, why should you wrap yourself up tightly because of other people's eyes and gazes?

But in the final analysis, she can never accept anyone touching her body. This is a taboo and also the bottom line.

Even with the guy in front of her, at most, she could only allow him to have some physical contact through the clothes. She was not a pretentious person, and she knew that it was inevitable sometimes, so she would not say anything.

But if the other party really sets his sights on those sensitive parts, Hun Ruoruo would rather give up this escape route completely and cut off all ties with him!

You know, there are some parts that even she herself is sometimes unwilling to touch too much. This is a problem left over from the concept that she failed to change since childhood. Over time, it has gradually become a personal habit that she can't change, nor does she intend to change.

Anyway, she doesn't like men or women, so she might as well keep it to herself and let no one touch her.

"Ah? Uh, well, it looks good." Xiao Yan stuttered for a moment, and finally said it frankly with helplessness. He couldn't go against his own heart. "Looks good? Don't you know that there is a difference between men and women? What if I saw you naked?"

Hun Ruoruo was getting more and more excited as she spoke, but suddenly she seemed to realize something, her voice gradually weakened, and then she blinked.

Hearing that Ruoruo had finally realized this, Xiao Yan immediately said in grief and anger: "Isn't that the case? Even though I'm a man, it's embarrassing to be seen naked. Even if you were a pug, you'd still get angry!"

"Tsk, I don't even want to look at that little bit of flesh on your body. Do you really think you're some handsome guy who can make other girls unable to walk just by looking at your body? You're really stupid."

The coldness on Hun Ruoruo's pretty face suddenly disappeared, and she burst into laughter. Then she looked at the depressed boy in front of her with a somewhat amusing look, and a teasing smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.

No wonder this guy got the courage to scare me. It turned out that he was still upset because I saw his naked body and mocked him.

what is this?
The inexplicable dignity of men?

Looking at Hun Ruoruo's half-teasing smile in front of him, Xiao Yan suddenly felt a surge of blood and energy rising to his head. A strange light flashed in his pupils and his breathing became heavier.

"Ruoruo. I feel like something is wrong."

"Ok?"

Hun Ruoruo looked back at Xiao Yan, and when she noticed that his condition was a little strange, she raised her eyebrows and finally figured out the reason.

"The beast spirit's violent savagery? No wonder. I was wondering where this guy got the courage from."

She sat up, stretched out her green jade finger and pointed it at Xiao Yan's brow. Soul water and fighting spirit surged, instantly restraining his somewhat uncontrollable movements, and the strange light deep in her pupils also dissipated.

A familiar refreshing feeling came over Xiao Yan, as if he had emerged from a clear spring. His whole body seemed to become more transparent. The wounds that had been broken during the previous battle also slowly began to heal with the flashes of blue-purple light.

"I-I am?"

"Using strength beyond your capabilities, of course, comes at a price. After all, I slew half of the Demonic Beast Mountain Range to condense those beast souls for you. It's too early to fully control them with your current soul power."

Hun Ruoruo stretched out her hand and took out a small ball of black mist from Xiao Yan's mind, then crushed it into pieces.

Xiao Yan frowned, obviously recalling all the strange behaviors he had done before.

He wasn't a violent, bloodthirsty person, yet he chose to torture the snake leader to death in the most brutal way possible. Furthermore, he became enraged at Ruoruo's few words. If Lingtai hadn't restrained himself in time, he might have actually done something wicked.
Is this the price of controlling the soul?
Ever since Xiao Yan used the soul fighting skill for the first time, he has been extremely clear about the evil nature of this thing. Not only is the feeling of intoxication irresistible, it can also easily cause a person's temperament to change drastically.

The beast soul contained in the Void Spirit Devouring Flame absorbed by the Burning Technique could bring him such a serious side effect, then what about Ruoruo?
The words that Yao Lao had once said to him flashed through Xiao Yan's mind. His heart moved and he looked up at the girl who was dispelling the side effects of his soul power for him, his eyes filled with guilt and self-blame.

He seemed to finally understand why Ruoruo had some flaws in her character.

All theories and teachings are not as clear and thorough as what I am experiencing personally at this moment.

　Huo Huo's character will not change, and there will be no extreme plot. The reason has actually been hinted before, so don't worry~
