At this moment, being pulled by Lady Melody like this, Ryan Ling felt as if electricity was coursing through his whole body. The Profound Immortal beauty’s hand was unbelievably soft—just a brush of skin contact was enough to make him wildly excited and stimulated!
Plus, Lady Melody’s attitude toward Ryan seemed both ambiguous and flirtatious—making him feel extra restless. Ever since his Heavenly Immortal breakthrough, he hadn’t actually vented his inner fire, and now that his power had reached peak Heavenly Immortal, it was getting harder and harder to suppress. What made it even more irresistible was Melody’s voice and movements; even a casual glance from her was enough to shatter his self-control!
“Stay calm, stay calm!” Ryan took a couple of deep breaths, trying hard not to let his mind wander. This was definitely not the time for that kind of thing—besides, considering what level she was, there was no way he’d be allowed to act so recklessly!
Following Lady Melody, Ryan slowly walked toward the very summit of Skycrest Peak. Suddenly, the view opened up—it was like stepping into another dimension. Here, there was no icy wind or snow; all extreme weather vanished, replaced by an environment of eternal spring. A towering palace appeared before him, standing atop Skycrest Peak like a heavenly palace, surrounded by auspicious clouds. The scene was so sacred that even Ryan’s heart was deeply shaken!
Ryan suddenly had a thought—this heavenly palace couldn’t possibly be something from the Immortal Domain World; it had to come from the heavens above. And this so-called Lady Melody was definitely an outsider from beyond. At this moment, his heart was filled with awe!
He also knew very well that if he could get her help, his own strength would skyrocket to heights he couldn’t even imagine!
“Come in—treat it like your own home!” Lady Melody called out right next to his ear, her voice so beautiful it was almost intoxicating.
There was no hesitation left in him. Inside, the palace felt like a whole different world from the outside. Ryan sensed that just by walking in, even without cultivating, his power would rise on its own. This place was definitely a top-tier training ground. He immediately strode inside and took a couple of deep breaths of the fresh air!
“So beautiful!” Taking in the exhilarating atmosphere and looking at the magical architecture all around, Ryan felt as if he’d stepped into a true immortal realm—he couldn’t help but blurt it out!
“Is my home beautiful, or am I the beautiful one?” Lady Melody smiled playfully, teasing him.
“You’re the beautiful one, obviously!” Ryan’s face flushed red. Even though he’d interacted with plenty of women before, for some reason, facing Lady Melody, he didn’t even dare look at her—his heart was shy to the max. But with a goddess like her, a little flattery was absolutely necessary.
Hearing that, Lady Melody gave a knowing smile, her expression so cute it made Ryan want to hug her on the spot. He quickly shook his head—no way was he allowed to have those kinds of thoughts in a place this sacred.
“Sweet talker.” Lady Melody chuckled, then grabbed his hand again and said, “This is my Cloud-Crest Heavenly Palace. I’ve never let any man in before. Plenty have climbed Skycrest Peak, but they only got baptized outside the palace. You’re the first to get an inner baptism—now, come on, undress!”
“Wait, what? Undress?” Ryan was totally stunned. He stared at Lady Melody, wondering if his ears were playing tricks on him!
Lady Melody smiled gently and continued, “Don’t overthink it. If you’re going to receive baptism, you have to wash away all the worldly grime first. There’s a super comfy bath here—go on, take a soak!”
As soon as she finished, Lady Melody gave him a light slap. It wasn’t forceful, but it sent Ryan flying straight into a huge bath. Instantly, his clothes vanished, the bath filled with spring water, flower petals rained down, and—most over-the-top of all—countless tiny fish swam around him, as if giving him a bath. The sensation was pure bliss!
But just then, things got even crazier. Four stunning beauties appeared beside him, wearing nothing but strips of cloth, and started massaging him. The scene was nosebleed-inducing—these women were drop-dead gorgeous and oozed seduction, clearly here to tempt Ryan!
Ryan had already been teased by Lady Melody and was feeling seriously pent-up. Now, with these beauties popping up, he was on the verge of total meltdown!
But he had to hold steady. No matter what, he absolutely couldn’t let Lady Melody look down on him—this was probably another little test!
“Young Master, we’re here to serve you!”
“Young Master, we’re all yours—whatever you want to do, just say the word!”
...
Hearing those seductive voices, Ryan took a deep breath and said, “No need, I really don’t need it. Please, just let me bathe alone!”
“It’s fine, we’re here just to serve you. If you don’t like us, hit us, scold us. But if you do like us and want to do something more, that makes us even happier!” The most beautiful girl whispered in Ryan’s ear, her meaning crystal clear. Instantly, Ryan’s inner fire exploded!
“Stay calm, stay calm!” But Ryan knew he had to keep it together—there could be no mistakes right now.
“No, I don’t need it. Please leave—now!” Ryan bit his lip and refused flat-out. There was no way he was giving in!
But seeing him so resolute, the women trying to tempt him suddenly turned into bubbles and vanished into thin air!
Ryan let out a huge sigh of relief. Sure enough—it was all a trick!
Just then, Lady Melody’s voice sounded again: “You really don’t have enough self-control, kid. I know you’re already at your limit, your inner fire is about to blow, but I honestly didn’t expect you to hold out at a moment like this. Not bad—I’m getting more and more convinced you’re that person!”
“Who?” Ryan had heard Lady Melody mention ‘that person’ more than once now. Obviously, it was the mysterious owner of the Giant God’s Hair—a top-tier powerhouse. Clearly, Lady Melody at least knew he had some extraordinary origin.
“It’s not time yet, so I can’t tell you—but you’ll definitely find out eventually!” Lady Melody finished with a smile, then slowly walked toward Ryan. “Since you’re so disciplined, I wonder if I can tempt you myself?”
The moment she said that, Ryan felt the volcano inside him erupt even harder—his whole face turned red. Those other girls he could resist, but in front of Lady Melody, he had absolutely no chance. She was just too gorgeous, like the sum total of every beautiful woman’s best features. Even the most disciplined guy wouldn’t be able to hold out!
“Uh, isn’t this a bit much? I came here to ask for your help!” Ryan tried to say the rest of his sentence—he wanted to insist he wasn’t here for ‘that kind of thing’—but the words wouldn’t come out. Lady Melody didn’t seem to care at all, and immediately replied.
“I know you’re here for my help, but ‘help’ can mean a lot of things. If I get entangled with you, that’s helping you too—and in a much deeper way. Don’t you need it? Or do you think I’m not good enough for you?” Lady Melody’s words left Ryan totally cornered—he didn’t dare refuse at all!
Right now, he was left speechless, watching Lady Melody slowly walk toward him...
