I Can Transfer the Side Effects of Evil Skills

Chapter 219: Chapter 168: Please Have Your Wife Be the Lookout

’A guest!?’

Zou Feng instantly realized something was wrong.

Although he had been in high spirits just moments ago with all his attention on Tian Yun, leading to a moment of carelessness, the fact that he hadn’t noticed another ”guest” in the room until Tian Yun pointed it out was enough to prove that this guest was no ordinary person.

Zou Feng quickly put away his weapon, let go of Tian Yun, and turned around slowly, on full alert.

In the open main hall behind him, a young, alluring woman in light clothing was indeed sitting there.

The woman’s eyes were wide, as if she were extremely curious about Zou Feng’s recent actions.

She held her breath, lurking in a state that almost erased her presence, intending to keep watching quietly.

”Teng... Teng Zhenchuan!?”

Zou Feng recognized her at a glance. This was the True Inheritor from the Silk Cave, a woman who disliked shoes and constantly radiated a Charm Power.

For an existence on Teng Jun’s level, Zou Feng wasn’t surprised at all that she could find this place.

Considering the great help he would be to her breakthrough to the Fourth Grade, and since Teng Jun’s name hadn’t appeared on the ordained list, Zou Feng didn’t think she meant him any harm.

”Er, Doctor Zou, it’s fine. Don’t mind me. You two, carry on!”

By now, Zou Feng had already readjusted his belt. He forced an awkward yet polite smile. ”Teng Zhenchuan, you must be joking. How can we possibly continue?”

To his surprise, Teng Jun shot back matter-of-factly, ”Why not? I’ve heard that for many people, having an audience while they... perform... actually makes them even more...”

’She’s from an Evil Sect, after all. It’s normal for her to have heard of such things.’

”Ahem... Teng Zhenchuan, what brings you here?”

’My tastes aren’t that... exotic. I don’t like having spectators during the act. Having them join in is another story, though.’

Teng Jun finally stopped dwelling on the good show she had missed. She shook her head in resignation. ”I... am injured!”

”Injured?”

The distance was a bit too great for Zou Feng to see any injuries on Teng Jun at a glance.

But under normal circumstances, no one in Qingchuan City could possibly injure her.

’Unless... Wang Wenjing, who just arrived in Qingchuan City, has already found Teng Jun.’

”That’s right. My junior sister is here, and she found my hiding place...” Teng Jun looked vexed.

Clearly, these were developments Teng Jun had not anticipated.

She had thought she was well-hidden and only needed to focus on her preparations for the breakthrough.

But in the end, she had underestimated Wang Wenjing’s methods.

Although Teng Jun spoke of it lightly, Zou Feng knew full well that escaping from a Fourth Grade Martial Artist was no easy feat.

However, looking at Teng Jun now, her injuries didn’t seem severe.

To have escaped the pursuit of a Fourth Grade Martial Artist without paying a heavy price was a testament to her strength.

’But the question is, now that she’s finally escaped, why come to me instead of finding a more secluded place to recuperate!?’

’Could it be that she wants to...’

”Doctor Zou, our prior agreement... I’m afraid we’ll have to move it up.” Teng Jun’s face was grim as she said this.

Zou Feng frowned. ”This... Teng Zhenchuan, since you’re injured, rushing a breakthrough now would be extremely unwise. It would be best to wait until your injuries have fully healed.”

Although it wasn’t unheard of for people to break through in desperate situations, such cases were exceedingly rare.

Normally, one would only attempt a breakthrough when in peak physical condition and after making thorough preparations.

Teng Jun’s situation was particularly special. She had chosen an extremely perilous method for her breakthrough, essentially using the poison of the Blood Begonia to fight fire with fire and stimulate her body’s potential.

If Teng Jun were also injured during this process, one could only imagine how dangerous it would be.

Teng Jun was, of course, aware of these risks, but her current situation left her with no other choice.

The next moment, she shook her head wistfully. ”There’s no time. I don’t know what method my junior sister is using, but no matter how I hide, she always manages to find me after a certain period...”

”Finding a place to recuperate in peace before breaking through is simply not an option!”

’So she’s being tracked, too!?’

Hearing this, Zou Feng couldn’t help but feel a little panicked, afraid that Wang Wenjing might show up at his door at any moment.

It wasn’t that he was a coward. With his current strength, he wouldn’t flinch if a Fifth Grade came knocking.

The problem was, Wang Wenjing was Fourth Grade, and one of the True Inheritors of Biyou Palace’s Silk Cave.

According to the original plan, Teng Jun’s breakthrough required several more days of preparation. He could have used that time to weaken Wang Wenjing with side effects.

However, plans could never keep up with changes. The situation was now dire.

”Sister Yun, you should...”

Zou Feng turned his head, about to say something to Tian Yun, but she cut him off with a shake of her head before he could finish. ”I’m not leaving!”

”I’ll be wherever Zou Lang is.”

As she said this, Tian Yun’s eyes were fixed on Teng Jun.

Zou Feng got the feeling that rather than worrying about her own safety, she was more concerned about what might happen if he were left alone with Teng Jun...

He couldn’t blame her; this was the very thing that had been troubling Tian Yun moments ago.

Teng Jun’s Charm Power was simply too overwhelming. It wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say her every move could steal one’s very soul.

Almost any woman who saw her would inevitably feel a strong sense of threat.

This was especially true for someone like Tian Yun, who was in the honeymoon phase with her beloved.

Thus, Tian Yun once again began to wonder if she should follow through on her earlier, offhand suggestion: take advantage of Teng Jun’s injuries and finish her off...

While doing so would certainly be risky, it was better than potentially facing pursuit from a Fourth Grade Expert later on.
