Chapter 44: Falling under Hua Yun’s Charm

What just happened? Jiang Li was also confused by her own actions. It was just a fleeting thought in her head, why did she unconsciously touch it? What was going on? Jiang Li quickly retracted her hand, explaining nervously, “I don’t know what came over me… I didn’t mean to…” Before she could finish her sentence, the same heat came over her again.

She gasped for breath. Thinking back to when she touched Ye Yao’s Adam’s apple, a coolness spread from her fingertips to her whole body, suppressing the heat in her body. Could it be that she was under Hua Yun’s charm? “What’s wrong with you?” Ye Yao also noticed Jiang Li’s discomfort.

 “Nothing.” She gritted her teeth, her tongue pressed firmly against the roof of her mouth. Her head started to feel hazy again, she had to stay awake, otherwise, she would do something out of line like before. Seeing the suspicious blush slowly creeping onto Jiang Li’s face, Ye Yao also understood what was going on. “Were you charmed by Hua Yun?”

“It… seems like it…” She felt hot all over. With a sliver of consciousness, her mind was replaying the scene of her fight with Hua Yun. When did she get charmed?

 It was then that she suddenly felt a familiar scent. Jiang Li’s body stiffened slightly, this scent was stimulating her, making her blood boil, as if thousands of insects were crawling on her. She remembered. She had smelled this scent before she met Hua Yun. So, it was then that she was charmed.

Ye Yao felt the temperature of the person in his arms rising, he quickly put her down on the ground, his fingertips lightly pressed against her forehead. A white aura appeared on his fingertips, constantly flowing from her forehead into Jiang Li’s body.

This aura was icy cold, flowing through her blood vessels and spreading throughout her body, making Jiang Li, who was unbearably hot, feel much more comfortable, the boiling, clamoring blood also calmed down at this moment. “How are you?

 Feeling better?” Jiang Li softly hummed, “Much better.” Ye Yao’s eyes narrowed slightly, becoming dark, with an indescribable emotion. His lips were slightly pursed, his brows were slightly furrowed. This look was as if he was also suffering from Hua Yun’s charm.

 And as a snake tribe member, he naturally knew that once charmed by Hua Yun, unless they had intercourse, they could only endure the torment. Those with strong willpower might be able to endure it, but those who were not strong would be tormented to death. Now, he was transferring his spiritual energy into Jiang Li’s body, but it was only a temporary suppression.

 He had to find a solution that would save her, he didn’t want to take advantage of the situation.

Jiang Li felt that her blood, which had just stabilized, suddenly became hot again, and she realized that the spiritual energy Ye Yao had transferred to her was only temporary. In less than a quarter of an hour, she would definitely be as uncomfortable as before.

“Ye Yao.” Jiang Li called softly. “Hmm?” “Take me to the creek by the cave.” “What are you going to do there?” Ye Yao didn’t understand her meaning for a moment. Jiang Li chuckled, “Go take a cold bath.” It was hot during the day, but the temperature would drop at night.

And the water in the creek was even colder. In her current situation, it was best to go there to alleviate the torment. Ye Yao also understood Jiang Li’s meaning, he picked her up in his arms again.

“Hang in there, we’ll be there soon.” Ye Yao’s speed increased, in a matter of seconds, he quickly arrived by the creek. Jiang Li, who couldn’t bear it anymore, didn’t wait for Ye Yao to put her down, she quickly jumped out of his arms.

As her feet were about to step into the water, she stopped, turned to look at Ye Yao. “Why aren’t you leaving? Do you want to watch me bathe?” Her eyes narrowed, her eyes were filled with silk, even her tone of voice became soft and seductive.

This teasing remark made the normally cold and serious Ye Yao blush. He turned his head and coughed lightly, leaving a sentence, “Call me if you need anything.” Then, he disappeared from Jiang Li’s sight. Seeing that Ye Yao had left, Jiang Li quickly took off her snake skin garment and slipped into the water. She closed her eyes and let out a long sigh. Like a fish that had been deprived of water for a long time, after diving into the water, Jiang Li’s whole body felt refreshed.

 The previous heat gradually dissipated, replaced by a coolness. This coolness seemed to come from her belly, slowly spreading throughout her limbs. And this feeling was very familiar to Jiang Li. It was like Jun Yue Lan was hugging her. Jiang Li slowly touched her bulging belly, looking at the full moon overhead, her thoughts of Jun Yue Lan became even stronger. But luckily, they still had the bond connecting them. After soaking in the water for a while, Jiang Li felt better, so she stood up and left. But before she could step out of the creek, the familiar burning sensation came again.

 Scared, Jiang Li shrank back. Hua Yun’s charm was indeed powerful, she couldn’t even leave the water for a moment. It seemed she would have to soak in it for the rest of the night. Thinking about this, Jiang Li sighed. Forget it, she had always been in the water before, with the pearl, she wouldn’t be afraid of soaking white. In the middle of the night, Jiang Li, who was in the water, couldn’t hold on any longer, she closed her eyes and fell asleep. On the other hand, Ye Yao in the cave was anxiously waiting.

He didn’t dare to go out, he was also afraid that Jiang Li would be in danger and he wouldn’t hear it, so he didn’t fall asleep all night. The next morning, as the sky was just beginning to lighten, the warm yellow sunlight shone on Jiang Li. This woke her up from her light sleep. Seeing that it was already dawn, Jiang Li got out of the water.

After a whole night, Hua Yun’s charm was gone. But… Jiang Li looked at her belly, which had grown several sizes. As if she had absorbed nutrients in the water, her belly was like that of a six or seven-month pregnant woman. Jiang Li twisted her body, picked up the clothes on the bank and compared them to her body, her belly was so big that she couldn’t wear them anymore. With no choice, she could only retreat back into the creek, hiding her body in the water, only her shoulders and above were exposed to the surface.

“Ye Yao, Ye Yao.” She called out to Ye Yao in a moderate voice. She didn’t know if he was awake or not? Would he be angry when he heard her calling him? Ye Yao, who had finally endured until morning, heard Jiang Li’s voice and quickly walked out. Seeing that Jiang Li was still hiding in the water without clothes, Ye Yao was startled and quickly stopped, turning his back to her. “What are you calling me for?” His ears turned red, instantly spreading to his entire ears.

 Jiang Li didn’t pay attention to this, she spoke to ask for his help. “Ye Yao, I can’t wear these clothes anymore, can you bring me some clothes?”
