Chapter 542 Plan Against Mu Xuanyin



Chapter 542 Plan Against Mu Xuanyin

Mu Xuanyin, leader of the Moon Shadow Clan, sat perched on a raised platform, her crimson eyes burning with an intensity that matched the vivid color of her flowing silk robes. Her raven hair cascaded down her back in a waterfall of midnight tresses, framing a face that was a perfect storm of sharp angles and beguiling curves.

Yin Lian couldn't help but straighten her posture, feeling a sliver of self-consciousness under Mu Xuanyin's unwavering gaze. Wang Jian, however, simply offered a charming smile.

"Greetings, Commander Mu," he greeted, his voice smooth and polite. "We apologize for the intrusion, but urgent matters have brought us before you."

Mu Xuanyin tilted her head slightly, her crimson gaze flitting between them. "High Priestess Yin Lian. And you are...?"

"Wang Jian," he supplied, offering a slight bow. "An associate of the High Priestess."

Mu Xuanyin didn't miss the glint of something more in his eyes, but chose not to comment. "Very well," she said, her voice a low contralto. "What brings you to the Moon Shadow Clan?"

Yin Lian cleared her throat, taking the lead as planned. "Commander Mu," she began, "we come to you today to lodge a formal complaint against the Earth Lunar Devil Temple."

Mu Xuanyin's brow furrowed slightly. Complaints against other temples were rare, and usually involved minor squabbles. This, however, piqued her interest.

"A complaint?" she echoed, leaning forward. "Please, do elaborate."

Yin Lian recounted the events of a month ago, detailing Bishop Cang's aggressive arrival at the Flame Lunar Devil Temple with a large contingent of followers. She emphasized the threats they made and their attempt to intimidate her.

As she spoke, Wang Jian kept his expression carefully neutral. He knew this was merely the first act, the planting of a seed. The real seduction wouldn't happen here.

Mu Xuanyin listened intently, her face turning a frosty shade as Yin Lian finished her tale. "Such aggression is unacceptable," she declared, her voice laced with steel. "We will investigate this matter thoroughly."

"Thank you, Commander Mu," Yin Lian said, a flicker of relief in her voice. "We appreciate your swift action."

Mu Xuanyin nodded curtly. "Rest assured, the Moon Shadow Clan will ensure justice is served."

The entire exchange took only a few minutes, and they took their leave.

As they stepped back into the sunlight, Yin Lian couldn't help but voice her confusion.. "That's it?" she whispered as they exited the building. "You didn't even try anything."

Wang Jian chuckled, a hint of mischief in his eyes. "Patience, my dear priestess. The game has just begun."

Yin Lian frowned. "But how? You barely spoke to her."

"Think about it," Wang Jian replied, a sly grin tugging at the corner of his lips. "What happens when Mu Xuanyin goes to the Earth Lunar Devil Temple to investigate?"

"They'll… gather their side of the story," Yin Lian mumbled, unsure where he was going with this.

Wang Jian snorted. "Not quite so simple, my dear Yin Lian. Imagine this – Mu Xuanyin walks into that temple, a vision of power and beauty in a den of lecherous fools."

He paused for dramatic effect, a playful glint in his eyes. "Every priest from the lowest initiate to the high bishop will be ogling her shamelessly. Trust me, the atmosphere there is ripe for… misbehavior."

Yin Lian frowned, skepticism etching itself onto her features. "Surely, they wouldn't dare do anything? Not to the leader of the Moon Shadow Clan."

"The priests," Wang Jian conceded, "might hesitate. But their followers? A mob mentality can be a dangerous thing, especially when fueled by misplaced piety and perverted lust."

"Then the stage is set," he declared triumphantly. "Imagine the scene – Mu Xuanyin, surrounded by these lecherous priests, feeling threatened and humiliated. And then…"

He paused, his voice dropping to a conspiratorial whisper. "Who do you think might 'coincidentally' appear to save the day?"

Yin Lian asked curiously, "Who?"

A mischievous glint sparkled in Wang Jian as he responded, "None other than your good friend Dong Aigou."

Yin Lian's eyes widened in disbelief. "Dong Aigou? That's impossible! How could he be at the Earth Lunar Devil Temple at that moment?"

Wang Jian raised an eyebrow, a playful smirk dancing on his lips. "Let's just say your 'close friend' has a few surprises of his own."

He didn't elaborate further, leaving Yin Lian to stew in a mixture of skepticism and intrigue. Did he know something about Dong Aigou that she didn't? The very idea filled her with unease, but also a strange sense of anticipation.

One thing was certain, Wang Jian had a plan. A reckless, audacious plan that relied on manipulation and chance.

A smirk played on Wang Jian's lips as he grasped Yin Lian's hand, his touch sending a jolt through her. With a playful glint in his eyes, he muttered, "Ready for a little trip, sweetheart?"

Yin Lian, her breath hitching, could only nod. The world dissolved into swirling shadows as Wang Jian, using his cultivation technique, melted them both into the darkness.

They found themselves in a strange, in-between realm, a reflection of the physical world mirrored in the shadows. Here, the air shimmered with a cool energy, and the familiar weight of their bodies seemed to lessen.

Wang Jian, no longer restrained by social decorum, pulled Yin Lian close. His hands roamed her alluring curves, sending shivers down her spine. He trailed kisses down her neck, his lips nibbling at the sensitive skin, eliciting breathless moans from her that couldn't escape the confines of the shadow realm.

Wang Jian navigated the shadowy realm with ease, eventually guiding them towards the Earth Lunar Devil Temple. There, they nestled within a dark corner, unseen observers to the events about to unfold.

Meanwhile, the sun dipped below the horizon, casting long shadows across the land. Mu Xuanyin, her crimson eyes narrowed in focus, strode into the Earth Lunar Devil Temple. She hadn't brought any guards, confident in her own strength and the supposed neutrality of the temple.

The air inside the temple was thick with a strange mix of incense and something darker, baser. The moment Mu Xuanyin entered, a collective gasp rippled through the crowd of priests and followers.

Her beauty, sharp and striking, held the room captive. Every step she took, the sway of her hips accentuated by her tight-

fitting robes, sent shivers down spines and ignited a hungry gleam in their eyes.

Mu Xuanyin, however, remained oblivious. Used to admiring glances, she ignored the leers and focused on her task.

She approached the group of priests, her voice cool and commanding. "I am Mu Xuanyin, leader of the Moon Shadow Clan. I have come to investigate a complaint lodged against your temple."

The priests squirmed under her gaze, their answers evasive and laced with a thinly veiled disrespect. Mu Xuanyin, however, held her ground, her composure unflappable. As she turned to leave, the silence in the room was broken only by the rustle of her robes.

It was then that Priest Luanjin, a man whose eyes held a permanent glint of perversion, made his move. He knew Mu Xuanyin wouldn't be easily subdued, but within the temple walls, the advantage was theirs. A silent signal passed between him and a group of burly followers, their faces twisted with a mix of lust and fear.

Before Mu Xuanyin could react, they lunged at her, their hands reaching for her in a grotesque display of unwanted affection. Shock flickered across her face, quickly replaced by a cold fury. With a swift movement, she sent the first attacker sprawling, her foot connecting with his chest with a sickening thud.

The rest of the followers faltered, but Priest Luanjin wasn't about to let their opportunity slip away. With a series of hand gestures, intricate patterns glowed on the floor, activating hidden formations within the temple. Invisible shackles bound Mu Xuanyin's movements, stifling her cultivation realm.

A cruel smile spread across Luanjin's face. "Looks like the mighty Moon Shadow leader is grounded," he sneered, his voice dripping with a sickening mix of power and lust. He knew they had crossed a line, but the thought of having Mu Xuanyin at their mercy was too tempting to resist.

The other priests chimed in, their voices a chorus of depraved intentions. Mu Xuanyin, trapped and powerless, glared at them with a burning intensity. Just as the situation seemed to spiral further out of control, a loud bang echoed through the temple.

The heavy wooden doors splintered, revealing a figure standing silhouetted against the dying light. It was Dong Aigou, his face etched with a mixture of surprise and anger.

In the shadows, Yin Lian watched in disbelief. Wang Jian had predicted this? How? A newfound respect, laced with a touch of awe, bloomed within her.

This man seemed to possess an uncanny ability to foresee the future. And with Dong Aigou's unexpected arrival, the scene within the Earth Lunar Devil Temple was about to take another unpredictable turn.

"So, High Priestess," Wang Jian murmured, his voice a low rumble that vibrated against her ear. "Starting to believe me now?"
