After entering the dance floor, the heavy music drowned out all words. No one could hear what the other was saying, so the two simply stopped talking and immersed themselves completely in the dance.
That being said, Pei Xuan actually had no idea how to dance, so he could only stand there awkwardly swaying his body slightly.
On the other hand, Ophelia seemed like a veteran in this field. Her movements were as smooth as flowing water and extremely skillful.
The mature foreign girl hung on Pei Xuan's body, twisting her waist and hips constantly, rubbing and even hitting Pei Xuan's waist and abdomen, almost treating Pei Xuan as a steel pipe.
Pei Xuan's desire was aroused, and he wanted to touch Ophelia's curvy body with his hands, but the mature girl could always easily avoid Pei Xuan's hands that were trying to take advantage of her.
At the end of the song, both of them were sweating a lot. Ophelia leaned over to Pei Xuan's ear and whispered breathlessly: "Xuan, take me to the room upstairs to finish this dance!"
This kind of thing happens frequently during the heated dance phase of a ball, and the mansion has already prepared a room for this purpose.
Ophelia took Pei Xuan and quietly left the banquet hall under the dim lights. The waiter outside the door was probably already accustomed to this, so he led the two of them into an empty room that was well prepared without saying a word, and then politely closed the door before leaving.
As soon as the door closed, Pei Xuan felt a chill behind him.
Turning around, he saw Ophelia pointing a dagger at him, with the dark blue blade flashing with magical light.
"Come here and sit on the bed." The originally sexy and charming mature girl now had a cold expression.
Pei Xuan raised his hands and slowly moved to the edge of the bed and sat down under the threat of the dagger.
Ophelia waved the dagger and said, "If you don't want to die, hand over the skills you've practiced."
"What kind of martial arts?" Pei Xuan showed a frightened and innocent expression. "I'm just practicing a common introductory martial arts technique. You can buy it directly in a large library!"
"Okay, then go die!"
Ophelia was about to attack without saying a word, and Pei Xuan quickly shouted, "Wait! Wait! Let me die knowingly! Who are you? Why are you trying to kill me?"
Ophelia shrugged, "I'm a member of the Knights of Misty Mountain, and I've been hired to take your life."
Pei Xuan had heard of the Knights of Misty Mountain.
It was not a real knightly order, but a notorious assassin organization.
They are expensive, but they almost never fail. High-level officials from various countries have secretly done business with them, so they can exist for a long time without being eradicated.
"Who?" Pei Xuan asked, "Who hired you?"
Ophelia frowned. "How should I know?"
"How could you not know?" Pei Xuan was incredulous. "Is it necessary to lie to a dying person?"
"Why should I know? The other party paid the full amount in advance anonymously." Ophelia became impatient. "Stop dithering and say your last words."
After hearing Ophelia's words, Pei Xuan's expression suddenly relaxed: "It seems that you really don't know, then I don't need to act anymore."
"Act? Act what--?" Before Ophelia could finish her words, a green figure suddenly appeared from the void in the room and hit her on the back with a palm.
Then the green figure snatched Ophelia's dagger, cut her palm with his backhand, and threw it in front of Pei Xuan.
Pei Xuan picked up the dagger, touched the blood on it with his fingers, and then called the system to form a blood contract.
"Congratulations to the host for forming a blood pact with a seventh-level cultivator. 700 points are awarded."
Strictly speaking, Ophelia is not a "monk" in the Eastern sense, but the system can convert her strength into an equivalent amount.
"Mastersd~" The cyan figure, Pei Xiaoqing, threw herself into Pei Xuan's arms, smiling and asking for credit. "How was your performance, little lewd dragon? Will the master give you a reward?"
"Of course I will. I'll reward you with a big cock."
Pei Xuan smiled and kissed Pei Xiaoqing's sweet little mouth hard, while proudly thinking about his plan.
It turned out that Pei Xuan had thought about it since morning, and the best protective measure he could take so far was to let a powerful master protect him closely.
To this end, he specially used 100 points to purchase an invisibility cloak in the system store.
In this way, the bodyguard can carry out his mission in secret without anyone noticing.
So, who should be chosen? Among the heavenly masters in Pei Xuan's harem, Du Ruoyun was the least loyal and was eliminated first.
Pei Taotao's loyalty is acceptable, but her behavior is really unreliable.
Pei Xiaohong is calm and reliable, but she is also a scheming person and her loyalty is questionable.
After much thought, the best choice is Pei Xiaoqing.
As it turned out, his choice was correct.
"Who... who are you?" Ophelia, who was nearly dead after being struck by Pei Xiaoqing, asked in disbelief, "Why..."
"Hmph! I'm the Master's little lewd dragon!" Pei Xiaoqing, proud of her status as a sex slave, said her lewd name without hesitation. "How could a weak, insect-like human like you possibly hurt the Master?"
"You..." Ophelia glared at Pei Xiaoqing angrily and resentfully, then suddenly gritted her teeth, and her face became even more distorted.
"Oh no! She is committing suicide by taking poison!" Pei Xuan instinctively exposed Ophelia's intention. Pei Xiaoqing immediately rushed forward to restrain Ophelia's body and inserted his fingers directly into Ophelia's mouth, trying to dig out the poison, but it was too late. Most of the poison had been swallowed by her.
"The Knight of Misty Mountain will never be captured alive!" Ophelia shouted palely, then closed her eyes and waited quietly for her death.
But time passed minute by minute, and Ophelia did not wait for the poison to take effect, but felt that the injuries on her body were gradually dissipating.
Ophelia gradually realized that something was wrong, so she sat up suddenly, moved her hands and feet a few times, and then was extremely surprised to find that not only was she not dead, but her injuries had healed.
"Don't even think about it. This is the master's power." Pei Xiaoqing glanced at Ophelia, who looked puzzled, with disdain. "Without the master's permission, you don't even have the right to die."
Ophelia was so shocked that she was stunned for a long time before she came to her senses, but tears suddenly fell silently.
She frantically crawled to Pei Xuan's feet, hugged Pei Xuan's calves tightly, and cried out in a fearful yet pious look: "But... I must die! I must die! Please! Please! Let me die! Let me die! Otherwise... otherwise..."
