"Or what?" Chu Feng first gave a shameless grin before asking curiously.
"Or… or I'll kill you!" Ziling pursed her little lips, and in those clear eyes, a hint of killing intent actually emerged.
"Ugh~~~" At this moment, Chu Feng secretly cried out in alarm, for he could see that Ziling seemed to be a genuinely chaste girl, and no matter how she declared in front of others that she liked Chu Feng, she still felt a bit shy when facing him directly.
This kind of girl was hard to handle. Chu Feng couldn't force it, or all his efforts would be wasted. He could only wear her down softly, breaking through her defenses bit by bit.
Fortunately, Ziling was already moved by him. Even if she didn't say it, Chu Feng could feel it. So he wasn't worried, because he was confident that Ziling would eventually be his.
Moreover, Chu Feng discovered that once this peerless beauty let down her guard against him, this insidiously cute, fiercely stubborn girl was truly someone he liked from the bottom of his heart. It was hard not to love her.
"What are you shamelessly grinning about?" Ziling first glared fiercely at Chu Feng, knowing he probably wasn't thinking anything good. She then ignored him, turning her gaze toward the corpse of the Hundred-Face Old Man not far away.
She murmured, "You actually defeated the Hundred-Face Old Man. You're still as formidable as ever."
"Mhm, you searched pretty thoroughly, but you missed one thing." After approaching the Hundred-Face Old Man's corpse, Ziling said with a pout.
"What did I miss?" Chu Feng asked, puzzled. He thought he had already cleared out all of the old man's treasures.
"Do you know why this Hundred-Face Old Man is called the Hundred-Face Old Man? It's because he can transform into a hundred different faces and a hundred different auras, making it impossible to track him and hard to guard against him."
"And the reason he can do this isn't due to any special Mystic Art, but because of this…"
As she spoke, Ziling reached out her jade-like hand and plunged it into the blood-covered face of the Hundred-Face Old Man, her fingers sinking deep into the flesh.
"Plunge"
Sure enough, this vicious little girl truly drove her fingers into the Hundred-Face Old Man's face.
However, when Ziling's five fingers penetrated the face of the Hundred-Face Old Man, his bloody and mutilated visage emitted a faint glow.
Then, Ziling swiftly pulled her hand back, and a semi-transparent mask appeared in her palm. At that moment, the Hundred-Face Old Man's face had changed again. Although still bloody and disfigured, it was indeed different.
"This is the Hundred-Face Old Man's most precious treasure. Not only can it alter one's appearance, but it can also disguise one's aura completely. Even a Spirit World Master cannot detect it; it hides one's presence perfectly."
"I've wanted this for a long time, but precisely because the Hundred-Face Old Man had this magical mask, almost no one could find him. Even my grandfather couldn't track his whereabouts."
"But now, this is your spoil of war." After saying this, Ziling waved her jade hand and tossed the magical mask toward Chu Feng.
"Since you like it so much, you keep it." Chu Feng smiled indifferently and tossed it back to Ziling.
Seeing this, Ziling narrowed her eyes slightly and curved her lips upward, revealing that sweet, intoxicating smile.
Then, she walked gracefully over to Chu Feng, lifted her sweet little face, and said to him, "You need it more than I do. Keep it safe." As she spoke, Ziling placed the mask on Chu Feng's face.
