# Chapter 541: Enchanting Scenery

"Is there a cultivation room?" Lin Feng shook his head. This courtyard wouldn't work.

"The place I live in doesn't have a cultivation room. If you need one, we could go to my bedroom."

Huo Shiyun said timidly, a hint of shyness appearing on her face. Bringing a man to her own boudoir was always an embarrassing matter.

"That works too."

Lin Feng didn't think much about it and simply nodded casually.

The two of them walked together into Huo Shiyun's bedroom. A fragrant scent assailed them—not strong, just that light, elegant, comfortable fragrance. It was different from the scent in Duan Xinye's boudoir, but both made one feel refreshed.

"Do all women in this world have such fragrant bedrooms?"

Lin Feng murmured inwardly. The women of this world didn't wear heavy makeup, didn't even use eyebrow pencil, and didn't use items to decorate their rooms. But that pure, natural fragrance was instead more comfortable.

"Lin Feng, what should I do now?"

Huo Shiyun asked Lin Feng again.

"Sit down first. I cultivate a flame technique. Let's see if I can force the cold energy out of your body." Lin Feng said to Huo Shiyun. But Huo Shiyun looked at Lin Feng and shook her head with a bitter smile.

"Lin Feng, it's useless. Our family also cultivates a flame technique, the Nine Yang Technique. But this cold energy invading my body was caused by the Yuan Family's Nine Yin Palm Force. Moreover, this Nine Yin Palm Force is even more powerful than my father's Nine Yang Technique. The cold energy can't be forced out."

"Nine Yang, Nine Yin?" Lin Feng murmured. This seemed far too similar.

"En, Nine Yang, Nine Yin."

Huo Shiyun seemed to know what Lin Feng was thinking and nodded: "Before, my Huo Family's Nine Yang Technique was domineering and powerful, with considerable prestige in Heavenly Dragon City. There was another family that also cultivated a flame technique, also a pill-refining clan, but they were always suppressed by my Huo Family. That family was the Yuan Family."

"I don't know if it was heaven's will, but later my Huo Family gradually declined. The people of the Yuan Family obtained great fortune—their martial souls mutated, yin and yang merged. They could cultivate both flame techniques and cold techniques simultaneously, possessing both yin and yang energy. They were extremely powerful. They named that cold technique Nine Yin, deliberately targeting my Huo Family, wanting to suppress and trample us underfoot."

"Yin and Yang merged!" Lin Feng's gaze congealed. Yin and Yang were completely opposite attributes, like ice and fire. This yin-yang fusion was similar to Lin Qian's ice-fire same source. In battle, one yin and one yang—truly terrifying.

"If the Yuan Family wants to deal with your Huo Family, why don't they just strike directly? Why inject this cold energy into your body?"

Lin Feng asked Huo Shiyun. Seeing such a woman tormented by cold energy was heartbreaking.

"They don't just want to deal with my Huo Family—they want to replace us, to swallow us up. Their goal is to obtain two treasures from my Huo Family."

Huo Shiyun's gaze was somewhat desolate as she slowly said: "Moreover, now their Yuan Family has produced a genius, extraordinarily talented. Even throughout the entire Dragon Mountain Empire, he's considered a genius, valued by the empire, even selected as a candidate for the Snow Domain Grand Competition. His strength is extremely high. It was this person who injected the cold energy into my body. Even my father can't undo it."

"What ruthless methods. Injecting this kind of cold energy into your body—that person really could bring himself to do it." Lin Feng said coldly. Huo Shiyun smiled bitterly and didn't say much more. She only said: "Lin Feng, that's why I said using a flame technique to force out the cold energy—the hope isn't great."

Lin Feng smiled. In Huo Shiyun's view, even her father couldn't force out the cold energy with the Nine Yang Technique. Lin Feng, at the First Layer of Profound Martial Realm, was even less likely. When she said the hope wasn't great, it was just a euphemism. In her eyes, how could Lin Feng possibly force out the cold energy with flame power?

"If we don't try, how will we know?" Lin Feng shook his head. Even if he couldn't expel the cold energy, if he could force it to the surface of her body, he could still devour it with his martial soul.

"Alright then."

Huo Shiyun nodded. Although she didn't think Lin Feng could force the cold energy out of her body with his flame technique, since Lin Feng wanted to try, she couldn't refuse—that would be not trusting Lin Feng.

"Sit properly." Lin Feng said to Huo Shiyun. She nodded and sat cross-legged on the soft couch. Lin Feng came and sat behind her, saying: "You can also use the Nine Yang Technique to cooperate with me, and together we'll force the cold energy out."

"En." Huo Shiyun nodded. Then, behind her, Lin Feng focused his mind and activated the Great Sun Incinerating Heaven Scripture. A terrifying heat burst forth.

Huo Shiyun's eyes closed slightly. The closed window seemed to have sunlight directly penetrating through, falling on her—extremely strange.

"Hiss!" A low gasp escaped Huo Shiyun's lips. A pair of palms landed on her back. Instantly, an incredibly terrifying heat invaded her body, rolling and surging. This heat directly disrupted the Nine Yang Technique she had just activated. The heat contained in the Nine Yang Technique was on an entirely different level from this heat descending upon her.

"Hmm?"

Huo Shiyun was shocked inwardly. How could this be? Lin Feng's flame technique—the heat was terrifying. She was someone who cultivated the Nine Yang Technique. Not only would she not resist flame heat, she would actually like it. But at this moment, she couldn't muster any liking. It felt like her body was about to burn up. This heat was too terrifying, exceeding her capacity to bear.

"Whoosh!"

A flash of fire suddenly appeared, igniting on Huo Shiyun's body.

Huo Shiyun looked at herself and couldn't help but let out a cry. She hugged her body with both hands, her face instantly turning bright red. It had burned—her upper garments had actually burned up in this heat, instantly turning to ashes, disappearing without a trace.

Huo Shiyun's graceful figure, her elegant and beautiful naked body, was completely exposed in the space, full of spring scenery. Lin Feng's palms were still on her back, skin touching skin, making her face flush crimson, even seeming to forget the terrifying heat.

"Focus your mind. Guide the flame invading your body to expel the cold energy within you."

Lin Feng's voice entered Huo Shiyun's ears, making her mind snap to attention. Her face kept changing. At this moment, her clothes had been burned away, her beautiful body exposed here—how could she focus her mind?

"Sizzle..."

A faint sound came out, startling Huo Shiyun. The heat from Lin Feng's palms was invading her body, colliding with that cold energy, expelling and erasing it.

Biting her lips lightly, Huo Shiyun closed her eyes, sank her mind into her body, and began to guide the flame invading her body to expel the cold energy.

In the bedroom, heat filled the air, and within this heat, there was a trace of enchanting spring scenery.

After just a moment, a mass of cold energy gathered on the soft couch, and this cold energy kept increasing—all of it cold energy expelled from Huo Shiyun's body by the Great Sun Incinerating Heaven Scripture.

The Great Sun Incinerating Heaven Scripture, a sun technique, was extremely yang and firm, restraining cold energy. Even though Lin Feng's realm wasn't very high, he could still use the Great Sun Incinerating Heaven Scripture to force out this cold energy.

"Hoo... so hot."

Huo Shiyun's face was bright red, and even her snow-white skin was now branded red by the scorching flame. The redness on her face—whether from shyness or heat—was especially intoxicating.

"Endure a little longer. If the cold energy in your body isn't completely expelled, it will continue to erode your body."

Lin Feng also spoke. At this moment, his eyes were open, looking at the flawless jade-like skin of the woman before him, ripples stirring slightly in his heart.

"Alright." Huo Shiyun nodded, allowing Lin Feng to continue circulating his technique, continuously invading her body.

...

In the Huo Family's great hall, Huo Jiuyang sat there, but his heart was not very calm. Some time had passed since Lin Feng left with Huo Shiyun, and there was still no movement. He didn't know what was happening.

"Big brother, do you actually believe that kid at the First Layer of Profound Martial Realm?"

Huo Lao'er said to Huo Jiuyang. Thinking of Lin Feng, a cold light flashed in his eyes.

"Since I've employed him, I trust him. Since he wants to try, I'll give him a chance to try and won't interfere at all."

Huo Jiuyang shook his head and said: "As for confidence, how could I have any? A person at the First Layer of Profound Martial Realm wanting to force the cold energy out of Shiyun's body—how easy is that? I can only believe a miracle will happen. Otherwise, I'll really have to compromise with the Yuan Family."
