"Lin Tian, you mustn't say that!" Zhang Lingyu blushed and quickly stopped him.

"What's there to be afraid of? They've heard it already." Lin Tian said casually, while Zhang Lingyu pouted and stared at Lin Tian with a face full of resentment.

"Charlotte, let me make it clear for you, this formation was drawn by Zhang Lingyu. Do you think that just because her mana is suppressed, she can't do anything? From a young age, the most she did was draw symbols and formations. Even with her eyes closed, she can draw them easily."

"Also, did you think just taking away her magic artifacts would be enough? The blood of a Demon Exorcist is excellent material for drawing symbols and formations. So, Zhang Lingyu used her own blood to draw a formation that can enhance the power of my flames. Now do you understand?" Lin Tian patiently explained.

Charlotte looked at the surrounding purple flames and said, "Even so, what can you do? Don't forget, if the Zhang Family finds out about you and her, what will happen? You're just wasting your efforts. Let me go, and we can work together."

Lin Tian suddenly laughed and said calmly, "What's going on between Lingyu and me? I have no idea."

"Why are you pretending to be confused? You took advantage of her body and now refuse to admit it?" Charlotte frowned.

"It seems you've misunderstood. Nothing happened between Lingyu and me." Lin Tian said with a slight smile.

Charlotte squinted, observing Lin Tian's expression through the fire net to see if he was lying. Seeing that Lin Tian appeared truthful, she couldn't believe it and said, "Impossible. This drug has no cure. Without intimacy between a man and a woman, the Zhang Family girl would be consumed by desire and die. Yet she looks like she..."

"Looks like what? Post-passionate intimacy?" Lin Tian chuckled, cutting her off.

Zhang Lingyu, unable to bear Lin Tian's blunt words, glared at him charmingly and whispered, "Stop talking!"

"Isn't it obvious? The sounds and her appearance aren't fake. Such things can't be faked if they haven't truly happened, especially by a maiden." Charlotte said with certainty.

She wasn't wrong. An inexperienced girl, even if she'd watched some romantic films, couldn't fake it so vividly. The bed scenes in TV dramas are good examples; actresses who perform them well in real life must have experienced such things.

Lin Tian shook his head and said, "There's a saying, 'Seeing is believing, hearing is deceiving,' but sometimes, even what you see isn't true. The sounds you've heard and the phenomena you've seen are indeed accurate, but sometimes you don't need to experience intimacy for that to happen. The outcome might disappoint you, but Lingyu is still a virgin."

"How did you do it?" Charlotte was 70% convinced but still somewhat unsatisfied.

"I can't disclose the details to outsiders, but I'll give you a hint: Nine Needle Technique." Lin Tian said calmly.

"Nine Needle Technique?" Charlotte was stunned but had no intention of delving deeper. Her plan failed, and she was thinking about how to recover.

Her eyes flickered, still maintaining her composure, "Alright, this time, you win. But so what? This formation won't last long. I can leave when it collapses. Will you kill me? Even if you do, you'll still be trapped in this underground space. Zombies may not die, but the Zhang Family girl will starve or die of thirst."

Charlotte was confident because she was correct. Without her, no one could leave this underground space, and without food or water, Zhang Lingyu would indeed starve or thirst to death.

Of course, Lin Tian could turn Zhang Lingyu into a zombie, but it wouldn't help as they'd still be confined. Moreover, Zhang Lingyu certainly wouldn't want to become a zombie; she was a Demon Exterminating Master.

Charlotte expected Lin Tian to compromise, but to her surprise, Lin Tian laughed wickedly, "Indeed, the formation won't last long, but there's enough time to enslave you."

"Enslave? I'd rather die than be enslaved by anyone, not even a Prince from the clan. Even if Blood Residence were to resurrect, it wouldn't be possible, let alone you." Charlotte said disdainfully, her proud heart unable to be conquered by anyone.

"You're likely thinking that no one can conquer your proud heart, and you're right. But I don't need to conquer your heart; conquering your body will be enough." Lin Tian said with a wicked smile, like a demon that emerged from hell, nothing could restrain or intimidate him.

"Lin Tian, what nonsense are you talking about? Heart, body... Tell her to open the barrier and let us out already." Even Zhang Lingyu couldn't take it anymore, glaring fiercely at Lin Tian, thinking that this pervert was trying to take advantage of another beauty.

"She treated us like this, playing us like pawns. If I, Lin Tian, were to let her go easily, I'd be just like a coward." Lin Tian said profoundly.

The last time at the ancient battlefield, and now in the underground space, Charlotte played them both times. If Lin Tian didn't let this anger out, he felt undeserving of being a real man.

"How do you plan to punish her? Let me be clear, if you plan on doing 'that' to her, I must oppose it. You might as well kill her." Zhang Lingyu glared at Lin Tian.

"Come on, where's your mind at? Do you think I'm the kind of guy ruled by desire?" Lin Tian was speechless, wondering what this little girl was imagining.

Zhang Lingyu's eyes remained wary, her face clearly indicating she thought he was a big pervert.

Lin Tian couldn't be bothered to argue further and took a few steps forward, reaching the flame cage and suddenly grabbed Charlotte's shoulder. Charlotte couldn't evade and had to let Lin Tian hold her.

"Kill me, and we'll be buried together within this barrier." Charlotte taunted Lin Tian without a hint of fear.

"Death is the greatest release, but I never let my enemies have such an easy escape. Sometimes, living is much harder than dying." Lin Tian spoke calmly, but within that calmness, both women in the room felt an unfeeling cruelty.

Lin Tian's eyes flashed yellow, and then a purple flame mark appeared between his eyebrows. Purple flames suddenly erupted from his palm, spreading to Charlotte's shoulder.

Without any warning, Charlotte groaned from the burning purple fire. She once again felt the power of the purple fire, just like when her arm made contact with the flame cage; the places that touched the flame seemed to be slowly melting. Yes, she felt like her body would be melted by the purple flames.

"Wow, kid, you're really going for it, and she's a woman." The Sword Spirit leapt onto the table, exclaiming.

"You better shut up, or I'll starve you for half a year and see if you still have the energy to talk." Lin Tian admonished.

"Damn it, I just helped you, and now you're threatening me." The Sword Spirit retorted.

Zhang Lingyu was also amazed at the Sword Spirit.
