Starting as a Snake: Defying Heaven with Invincibility

Su Ya had been at Qianlong Bank for many years, and her insight was naturally sharp. She immediately recognized that this was a deliberately arranged miniature Gathering Spirit Array.

For such a small area to have such an astonishing effect, the person who set up the array must be a master of formations!

At this moment, the Spiritual Qi seemed to have found an outlet and poured into the massive figure at the center. Gradually, the figure became clear.

When the mist-like Spiritual Qi was completely absorbed, the figure was fully revealed—it was the masked man with the surname Xiao.

"A third-grade alchemist, plus a formation master of no low rank..." Su Ya's breath nearly stopped.

She had never seen someone so defiant of the heavens.

Su Ya exhaled deeply, calming her inner excitement and shock. No matter how skilled this person was, he would eventually be ensnared by her charms and be at her mercy.

Besides, what resistance could someone at the ninth level of the Body Refining Realm possibly have?

At this moment, Huang Mao had stopped his training and was looking at Su Ya in surprise.

"How did she get in?" Huang Mao was very puzzled. According to Xiao Long's explanation of human customs, intruding into a room was not allowed and was considered highly disrespectful.

But facing someone stronger than himself, and without Xiao Long to guide him, he was bound to be nervous about being exposed.

"Quick, tell the boss!" Huang Mao was about to send a message to Xiao Long, but suddenly, a strange light radiated from Su Ya's eyes, capturing Huang Mao's gaze.

In an instant, Huang Mao found Su Ya's entire being exuding a peculiar allure, like a female monkey dancing gracefully.

"Impossible! How can a human be a monkey!"

Huang Mao was so startled that he jumped back a few steps, landing on the ground with a thud.

"Got him!" Su Ya was overjoyed.

In her view, making a proud third-grade alchemist appear so embarrassed must mean he was under the influence of her charm technique.

Little did she know, Huang Mao wasn't actually bewitched; he was just panicking because the boss wasn't around, fearing exposure.

"Master Xiao, could you remove your hat and let me see your true face?" Su Ya walked over with a charming smile, every move captivating.

"Stay back!" Huang Mao cried out, his voice filled with fear.

Su Ya was very puzzled. Logically, if the other party was bewitched, he shouldn't be afraid of her. Could something have gone wrong?

She scrutinized Huang Mao, who was curled up in the corner, looking like a child caught doing something wrong, which left her very confused.

"Never mind, since he's under my charm, I'll capture him and take him back."

Thinking this, Su Ya reached out her delicate hand, grabbing the edge of Huang Mao's hat.

Huang Mao, as if his hair stood on end, suddenly entered a berserk state. His violent Inner Qi burst out, transforming into countless fine needles, shooting straight at Su Ya.

"What?"

Su Ya was taken aback. He actually retaliated?

Moreover, the opponent's aura suddenly surged, reaching the first level of the Qi Condensing Realm. Clearly, he had used some secret technique or consumed a pill to boost his strength.

Su Ya unleashed a wave of True Qi, and the two forces collided with a thunderous explosion, cracking the floor like a spider web. In the clash, Huang Mao's hat was blown to pieces, and his mask was mostly torn, causing the whole building to shake.

The two figures retreated upon contact, with Su Ya stepping back to the doorway, looking ahead in shock.

Her charm technique didn't work?

"Miss Su Ya, please respect yourself. Leave now, and I'll pretend nothing happened."

This was the message Xiao Long had sent for him to say.

At this moment, Huang Mao looked extremely disheveled. The collision not only ruined his hat but also nearly shredded his mask, barely covering his face, with a tuft of hair exposed. If he hadn't turned his head in time, he would have been recognized.

Huang Mao stood in place, glancing forward with anger in his eyes, not at all like someone under a charm spell.

"Failed! How is that possible?"

Cold sweat poured down Su Ya's back. She never imagined her charm technique would fail!

Just as Su Ya was thinking of a way to salvage the situation, she suddenly noticed Huang Mao's legs trembling slightly.

What's going on?

This was a third-grade alchemist, and yet he seemed afraid of a woman like her.

Looking closely at Huang Mao, he seemed unnerved by her gaze, lowering his head, not daring to meet her eyes.

Su Ya's curiosity grew stronger.

What was he afraid of?

Thoughts raced through her mind. Su Ya, having been at Qianlong Bank for so long, was clearly not an ordinary person. After thinking for a moment, she tentatively asked, "Master Xiao? Are you really a third-grade alchemist?"

In fact, she had already begun to doubt. There were only two or three third-grade alchemists in the entire country. How could one suddenly appear out of nowhere?

She suspected that the pills weren't made by him but were stolen or found in some ancient ruins.@@novelbin@@

If that were the case, it meant he still had many pills hidden, fearing she'd find out.

"Of course!" Huang Mao replied, shrinking his neck, but his tone lacked confidence, deepening Su Ya's suspicions.

A person who hadn't even reached the Qi Condensing Realm yet possessed extraordinary alchemy skills was unbelievable. The Tianfeng Pill King in the Capital was not only a third-grade alchemist but also an Innate Expert. Even Gu Yun, a second-grade alchemist in Fire Cloud City, was a fourth-level Qi Condensing Realm expert.

For a third-grade alchemist, breaking through to the Qi Condensing Realm should be effortless. Why was he only at the ninth level of the Body Refining Realm?

All along, the arrogance he displayed at Qianlong Bank was just an act. Now that someone had come knocking, he was cowering!

Su Ya's eyes curved into crescents, and she walked over with a charming smile.

"Master Xiao, could you perform your extraordinary alchemy skills for me to see?"

As Su Ya spoke, she took steps forward. As she finished speaking, her delicate hand shot out like lightning, reaching for Huang Mao's wrist.

"Stay back!" Huang Mao quickly retreated, fleeing to the side, while Su Ya followed closely, like a shadow.

The small room was in chaos, with two figures chasing and fleeing, smashing tables and chairs, even denting the black iron walls.

After going berserk, Huang Mao could only fend off a first-level Qi Condensing Realm warrior. Su Ya, however, had the strength of the third level of the Qi Condensing Realm, two levels stronger than him.

Moreover, Huang Mao didn't want to cause too much commotion and didn't wish to engage in combat, making him weaker in momentum.

"Got you!"

In the chaos, Su Ya pinned Huang Mao's shoulders, pushing him to the ground. Under the suppression of True Qi, Huang Mao lay on the ground, unable to move.

"Master Xiao, let me see your true face."
