373: Chapter 373 Where did I come from?

"La la la..."

The woman seemed to be in a good mood, soaking comfortably in the water, her head bobbing above the surface, humming an unknown tune.

Her long, fair, beautiful legs swayed gently in the water, and the water plants drifted with the current. The sight of her fair skin made Ji Taichang swallow hard.

Just as Ji Taichang was wondering how to tactfully remind her that there was someone else underwater...

The woman suddenly rolled over, dived to the bottom with her eyes closed, and with a stroke of her arms, her flawless, delicate body collided directly with Ji Taichang's tall and sturdy frame, pressing her chest against him.

"Hmm?"

The woman paused, reached out to pinch Ji Taichang's face, and then opened her eyes.

Her gaze was dull and blank, as if she thought she was hallucinating, or perhaps she had opened her eyes the wrong way. She quickly closed them again, shook her head, and opened them once more.

"Hello, Fellow Daoist."

Ji Taichang tried to put on a gentle smile and waved at her.

"Ahhhh—" A sharp scream pierced the sky!

The woman's delicate and bright face instantly turned crimson, filled with shame and anger!

"Hiss!"

Ji Taichang felt his ears ringing, his eardrums stinging, and he couldn't help but gasp. He rubbed his ears: "Why are you yelling so loudly? It was you who got undressed..."

"Shameless thief!!"

"I will kill you!!!"

The woman scrambled to cover her chest with one hand, then thought better of it and covered the water plants, then covered her chest again.

With her other hand, she instantly produced a precious sword from her Storage Ring. Cold light flashed as she slashed fiercely at Ji Taichang!

[Ding! Qin Shishi's favorability has decreased by 50!]

[Qin Shishi's favorability: -50 (There will be a surprise when favorability reaches 100!)]

"I block!"

Ji Taichang immediately clapped his hands together, slamming them onto the sword, catching the blade with his bare hands!

But Qin Shishi's cultivation was extremely high, and in her shame and anger, she struck with full force. The astonishing power that erupted sent Ji Taichang flying over a hundred zhang away, out of the water, crashing heavily into a landscape rock mountain, shattering it to pieces.

Fortunately, Ji Taichang possessed two great Immortal Dao talents, and after stepping into the Dao, his physique had become stronger, so he was not injured.

"You, it was clearly you who broke in, yet you dare to attack? Do you really think I don't hit women?"

Ji Taichang shook his tingling hands, his eyes turning cold.

Qin Shishi took a new dress from her Storage Ring and quickly put it on. The blue and white cloud-patterned ru-skirt fit perfectly, accentuating her proud figure. Her wet hair draped over her shoulders, and crystalline water droplets clung to her fair skin, making her look even more tender and delicious.

She raised the sword in her hand, her beautiful eyes filled with shame and anger, her teeth clenched: "Lecher!! How did you break into this Young Miss's bedchamber?"

"Bedchamber?"

Ji Taichang's heart skipped a beat, and he quickly scanned the surrounding environment.

Only then did he realize that he was not in a wild lake, but in a very vast, beautifully landscaped garden. Under his feet was a hot spring, sprinkled with many flower petals, emitting a faint fragrance.

"Damn it!"

"Revered Master, oh Revered Master, you've really screwed me over! Where did you teleport me to??"

Ji Taichang's face stiffened, and he forced a smile: "Miss Qin, if I said this was a misunderstanding, would you believe me?"

"I believe you, my foot!!"

Seeing Ji Taichang call out her surname, clearly knowing her identity, it only further indicated that this was a conspiracy carefully prepared by Ji Taichang. The anger in Qin Shishi's eyes intensified!

Her figure flashed as she executed a movement technique, appearing before Ji Taichang in the blink of an eye, and slashed down with her sword!

"Earth Immortal realm, third stage!"

Ji Taichang's eyes glowed slightly. With his Double-Pupil Immortal Eyes, he not only saw through Qin Shishi's cultivation at a glance but could also precisely identify the flaws in her move.

Ji Taichang tilted his body slightly, easily avoiding her sword.

Not only that.

Ji Taichang backhanded a finger, tapping the Acupoints on Qin Shishi's wrist. Qin Shishi felt as if she had been struck by lightning; her wrist went numb, and the Qi in her body suddenly became chaotic. Her Cultivation Technique couldn't run smoothly, and she couldn't help but groan, her face turning pale.

Qin Shishi couldn't hold onto the sword, and Ji Taichang snatched it away!

"Die, lecher!!"

Qin Shishi reacted quickly. With her other hand, she formed a seal, casting a Spell. Her arm transformed into a green beast claw, radiating Evil Qi, and she clawed at Ji Taichang's chest, clearly wanting to rip his heart out.

Ji Taichang flashed again, as if he had precognition, easily avoiding the strike.

He turned and stabbed with the sword, precisely hitting the Qi pulse node on Qin Shishi's abdomen.

This was a key node for her Cultivation Technique's circulation, and also one of its most fatal weak points!

Furthermore, although Ji Taichang appeared to only have the cultivation of the third stage of the Loose Immortal realm, he actually possessed two great Immortal Dao talents, and the immortal power within him was vast and majestic, completely not inferior to an ordinary Earth Immortal.

Therefore, this sword directly pierced Qin Shishi's skin. As blood flowed out, her face turned pale again, and blood spilled from the corner of her mouth!

Qin Shishi felt the immortal power of her Cultivation Technique instantly descend into chaos, and her body lost all strength.

"Young Miss, are you alright... Protect her!!"

"Audacious thief, you're courting death!!"

Meanwhile.

Qin Shishi's earlier scream had attracted a group of guards. They rushed into the garden and, seeing the scene of Qin Shishi being injured by Ji Taichang, were instantly filled with burning rage and Killing Intent!

Seeing this group of guards quickly draw their weapons and charge over aggressively.

Ji Taichang immediately wrapped one arm around Qin Shishi's slender waist, while holding the sword in his other hand, pressing it against her neck.

"Don't move, or I'll kill her!!"

Following Ji Taichang's sharp shout, those guards stopped in their tracks, their eyes filled with anger and wariness, surrounding Ji Taichang.

"Let the Young Miss go! Otherwise, you will regret it!"

"Daring to kidnap the Qin family's Young Miss, you truly have guts!"

"You are still young, do not walk down the wrong path!"

"Let her go now and you might live; if you remain stubborn, you won't leave this place alive!"

The guards roared, their eyes cold, like wolves waiting to devour someone.

Ji Taichang remained unmoved, just coldly saying: "Move aside!"

"As long as I leave this place, I will let her go, but if you dare to stop me, then we shall all die together!"

Seeing Ji Taichang's fierce gaze, and that Qin Shishi had already been injured, with blood staining her ru-skirt, it was a shocking sight.

Those guards were extremely wary and could only clear a path, allowing Ji Taichang to hold Qin Shishi hostage as they slowly walked out of the garden.

But just at this moment, a middle-aged man wearing gray clothes strode over!
