"What's wrong? Come on, guys, pull yourselves together!" Nina Xu looked at the group as they started sweating, unable to help asking in concern.
At this moment, all seven men sat weakly on the ground covered in poplar leaves, sweat pouring from their foreheads, looking extremely miserable.
"Hey, are you guys okay? What do I do, what do I do?" Nina Xu fussed anxiously. With Ivy not here, she had to take care of them in her place, but they...
"Haha, they've been hit by Bewitching Powder! I suggest you unlock our acupoints, or they'll get in deeper and if they don't have sex, they'll die from bursting blood vessels!" A group of women standing a distance behind them burst into wild laughter. The one speaking was their leader, Boss Ada.
Hearing this, Nina Xu cursed at them, "How can you all be so shameless?"
"Bewitching Powder? What's Bewitching Powder, and why aren't we affected?" Clara Night was currently supporting Adrian Night, looking confusedly at the immobilized women Nina Xu had sealed.
"Hmph, you don't know Bewitching Powder? That's a top-tier aphrodisiac. Once you inhale it, you have to couple, otherwise you'll die from bursting blood vessels. Haha, you'd better unlock our acupoints. I don't believe just you two can satisfy so many men!" Boss Ada leered, looking so wanton and sleazy she didn't resemble a woman at all.
Seeing this, Nina Xu snapped, "You filthy sluts, dream on!" Looking at these women, for the first time ever, she really wanted to beat them to death.
"Adrian, Adrian, you're feeling awful, aren't you? Let me help you, okay?" Hearing what those women said, Clara Night suddenly lit up with joy and hurriedly tried to undress Adrian Night. As long as—as long as she coupled with him, then he'd surely come back to her side.
"Cut it out!" Adrian Night shoved Clara Night away with obvious disgust written all over his face.
Adrian, Adrian, I'm not messing around, you know I love you, I really do!' Clara Night rushed over again, unable to miss such a golden opportunity—these chances only come once in a hundred years!
'Shut up!' Adrian Night shouted at Clara Night, eyes blazing with anger. His expression stunned Clara and she didn't dare move.
'Hahahaha, looks like you really like that man?' Boss Ada laughed, unable to resist commenting.
'None of your business.' Clara Night was clearly annoyed after Adrian Night yelled at her, so she snapped back at the woman.
Boss Ada just laughed instead of getting angry. 'Don't get me wrong, we're not making fun of you. If you like him, just couple with him later. Once you do, he definitely won't leave you.'
'But...' Clara Night hesitated after hearing this, wanting to but remembering what just happened...
'Don't worry, they're still a little rational right now. Wait a bit—once they lose all reason, you'll appear to him as the woman he loves most. Tell me, wouldn't he want to be with you then?' Boss Ada grinned wickedly.
'Huh? Really?' Clara Night immediately brightened, thinking: Does this mean he won't be able to refuse her soon?
'Of course it's true! Look, I've told you so much—how about you unlock our acupoints? I can see you only like him, so we'll give him to you, and the rest are ours.' Boss Ada quickly tried to strike a deal.
'Yeah, yeah, you can't use all those men yourself! Besides, if he finds out you coupled with someone else, he definitely won't truly love you.' The other women quickly chimed in.
'Shut up!' Nina Xu yelled at them, then turned to Clara Night. 'You actually believe what they're saying?'
'You can believe us, you really can! We're not lying to you.' Boss Ada glared hatefully at Nina Xu. Damn, how did this woman know martial arts? If they'd known, they wouldn't have rushed over after the silver needles wore off. Now they totally regret it.
'Are you guys okay?' Adrian Night looked at the men beside him, asking worriedly.
'No, I can't... I can't hold out...' Lucian Vane said painfully.
'Don't worry, it'll pass soon.' Butterfly Rogue was the most clear-headed among them, since he'd worked as a flower thief and had experience with all kinds of aphrodisiacs, so his resistance was better. But he'd never seen Bewitching Powder this strong—he was definitely affected. He just hoped he could get them away before collapsing.
'Butterfly Rogue...' Liam Willow murmured, and Butterfly Rogue hoisted him up and started walking forward. Maybe they'd be safer farther away from those women.
'Butterfly Rogue...' The others were all a bit stunned by his actions.
'Getting farther away from them might be safer,' Butterfly Rogue said through gritted teeth.
The men were already unable to move. The aphrodisiac was so strong they couldn't even use their strength. Thinking about all those hungry-wolf women behind them, they couldn't help but shiver.
Damn it, why do we always get schemed against wherever we go?
Damn it, why are they so useless?!
After setting Liam Willow down, Butterfly Rogue staggered back to the group and picked up Eli Crane, then Ethan Chu, Lucian Vane, Colin Kerr, Adrian Night...
After moving them several hundred meters away from the women, Butterfly Rogue finally collapsed at their feet. 'I can't... I can't hold out, it hurts...' He couldn't help tugging at his collar, sweat pouring down his forehead—he was clearly suffering.
'Hang in there!' By the time they realized the weird powder was coming from the poplar forest, it was too late. Now they understood why the poplars were so short—each one had a hole in the middle, with a strange plant inside. The plant merged with the tree, and its leaves released this deadly temptation.

'Miss... Miss, save me, save me...' At this point, Aiden couldn't help but strip off his clothes and grabbed Clara Night's hand, desperate for her.
Seeing this, Clara Night frowned, 'What nonsense are you talking? I'm a proper lady, how could I ever be with you?'
'Miss, Miss, save me! Aiden's always liked you, Miss!' He finally couldn't hold back and confessed.
Hearing that, Clara Night wrinkled her nose in disgust and shook him off, making him fall to the side. 'A toad lusting after swan meat, huh?'
'If you don't want him, give him to us!' Boss Ada said quickly, her desire for the cute young man practically bursting out.
'Alright.' Clara Night said generously—just as long as it wasn't Adrian Night being given to those women.
'Then hurry and unlock our acupoints!' Boss Ada said quickly, and the other women echoed her.
Seeing this, Clara Night raised an eyebrow and smiled slyly. That wicked Ivy Shen made her suffer so much—this time, she'd make all Ivy's men sleep with these women. Surely Ivy would be heartbroken! Thinking that, she walked forward.
'What are you doing?' Just as Clara Night was about to approach the naked women, Nina Xu's sword suddenly appeared at her neck.
'I'm just helping them! Look how miserable they are. If they don't couple, they'll die! Aren't you close with Ivy? Don't you want to save her husbands?' Clara Night said, looking as innocent as possible.
'Don't think I don't know what you're up to. Listen, as long as I'm here, you won't harm them.' Nina Xu knew these men loved Ivy deeply—if they coupled with the women just to survive, they'd never want to live after waking up!
'Why are you so stubborn? I'm just trying to help them!'
'Shut up!' Nina Xu was growing more and more disgusted with Clara Night.
At that moment, Boss Ada shot Clara Night a look—if the direct approach doesn't work, go sneaky!
Clara Night understood instantly and started plotting. She wanted to protect them? Hmph, Clara would make sure she couldn't. She'd have all Ivy Shen's men sleep with other women just to make Ivy furious—let's see if Ivy ever dares act superior again!
'Damn...' Colin Kerr was suffering too, his eyes drifting toward Liam Willow. 'Liam, Liam, come save me, please! I really can't take it!'
'Miss, Miss...' Aiden, who'd been shoved aside, crawled back over, looking absolutely miserable.
The men's suffering was driving the women wild with desire—they could barely restrain themselves from pouncing and pinning the men down right now.
Just then, Clara Night suddenly had an idea—a way to make that woman let down her guard. Ivy Shen, oh Ivy Shen, today I'll make all your men sleep with someone else, hah!
