What?

Tang Rao looked utterly bewildered. Had he heard wrong or what? Fang Jinxiu was asking him to undress?

What the heck, does it really need to be this sudden?

"That, Jinxiu, don't be like this, it's too sudden and I can't accept it. If you really want to, you should tell me, we can take a bath together first, then chat and turn up the~ mood. Doing it so directly is just too awkward," Tang Rao said.

"Cut the crap, when I tell you to undress, just undress, quit your jabbering!" Fang Jinxiu's tone became even more irritable, and it was unclear why.

"Alright!" In the end, Tang Rao obediently took off his clothes.

At this time, Fang Jinxiu had already walked up to him, towering above.

Her loose nightgown faintly revealed her exquisite figure.

At this moment, Tang Rao really wanted to open his arms and shout: "Come on, baby!"

"What are you looking at? Pants, take your pants off as well," Fang Jinxiu frowned and stared intently at Tang Rao's body.

Under Fang Jinxiu's gaze, Tang Rao also took off his pants, leaving only his underwear on.

"Tang Rao, who did this?" Pointing at Tang Rao, Fang Jinxiu reached out and touched his arm, his chest...

Tang Rao's body was covered with dense patterns, mysterious and intricate.

Tang Rao was taken aback. What did Fang Jinxiu mean by that?

"Are you talking about these Array Runes?" Tang Rao asked.

"Mm." Fang Jinxiu nodded with a furrowed brow.

"Uh, Yun Xi. She said she had found a way to combine an Array with the body and engraved this Great Formation onto me. It's supposed to increase my body's defense and give me greater resistance to blows. Honestly, with my current body strength, I could take on a giant dragon without any problems," Tang Rao said.

It has to be said, Yun Xi's engraving of the Array on his body did indeed boost his strength quite a bit.

At the very least, his resistance to blows was absolutely top-notch.

"That bitch!" Fang Jinxiu kicked the coffee table fiercely, causing a loud crash.

Tang Rao looked at Fang Jinxiu in confusion. What on earth was she so angry about?

"You're an idiot too! Have you really not felt that something's off? Haven't you felt any issues with your body, Tang Rao! Aren't you always boasting about how awesome you are? How can you be so brain-dead! Do you even know what this is? You know you could die from it!" Fang Jinxiu shouted at him angrily.

Honestly, Tang Rao was somewhat dumbfounded. What's the situation?

"Are you saying there's something wrong with the Array Rune engraving?" Tang Rao asked.

Fang Jinxiu took a deep breath. After Tang Rao had completed his tribulation and was naked, she had seen those Array Runes on his body.

She had felt something was off back then. Over the past few days, Fang Jinxiu had given it a lot of thought and finally understood what the problem was.

And that was why she was so irritated, why she was so upset.

Because Tang Rao could die because of those Array Runes.

And moreover, she had no solution to the problem.

"I don't know what kind of Array Rune this is, nor do I know its purpose. All I know is that this thing, it will take your life; all I know is that Yun Xi, that bitch, definitely did it on purpose!" As Fang Jinxiu spoke, she reached out and rapidly pressed several points on Tang Rao's body.

Pfft!

After she pressed those points, Tang Rao's complexion changed dramatically. His chest felt like a surging river in turmoil, and, unable to control it, a stream of hot blood burst forth from his mouth, splashing all over Fang Jinxiu.

"How... How could this happen..." Tang Rao felt an immense repression within him, as if a tremendous force was holding him back.

"This Array has established a total of eighteen Array points, each one subtly or semi-subtly suppressing your body's vital acupoints. Moreover, these eighteen acupoints are interconnected, forming an eerie Array within an Array. I don't know the purpose of this meta-Array, but what I do know is, if these eighteen Array points flare up, you'll have nowhere to bury your corpse," Fang Jinxiu said hastily.

Tang Rao's expression became utterly blank. Eighteen Array points on his vital acupoints... He hadn't noticed them at all.

"This is a form of Array pattern of the Heavenly Dao, very peculiar. I also came to understand it during your tribulation. I don't know why I would grasp such a strange pattern of the Heavenly Dao, as I have absolutely no clue about Arrays. Perhaps it was the Array pattern inscribed on you that triggered the arrival of this bizarre Array pattern of the Heavenly Dao, allowing me to comprehend some of it," Fang Jinxiu said.

Tang Rao struggled to calm himself, but it was to no avail.

When Yun Xi inscribed this Array on him, she had just started learning about Arrays not long before. At that time, their relationship was still good.

Why?

Could it be that Yun Xi had been deceiving him right from the start?

The more Tang Rao thought about it, the more he felt on the verge of madness.

"Is there no way to undo it?" Tang Rao's breathing was a bit heavy.

"At least, I can't undo it." Fang Jinxiu shook her head, "Although I have grasped this peculiar Array pattern of the Heavenly Dao, I basically know nothing about Arrays. I've tried to understand Arrays these past few days, but after several days of learning, I've gotten nowhere. I'm clear that I'm not suited for learning Arrays. Therefore, I can only tell you where the problem lies, but I'm unable to resolve it."

"Is that why you're frustrated?" Tang Rao suddenly asked.

"What else could it be? This will take your life!" Fang Jinxiu said.

"For some reason, I suddenly feel a bit happy," Tang Rao said, "I didn't expect you to care about me so much."

Fang Jinxiu paused for a second, "I... I'm just worried that if you die, no one will pay my salary," Fang Jinxiu retorted.

Tang Rao said no more, and simply sat cross-legged, letting Spiritual Energy flow through his body, feeling every part of it with an unprecedented level of attention.

Gradually, Tang Rao's complexion grew darker. Just like Fang Jinxiu had said, there were eighteen connected Array points on the vital acupoints within his body, forming another Array.

Once this meta-Array erupted, he would be undoubtedly dead.

At that time, the Inner Spirit in his body would completely lose control, and the ultimate outcome would be a crazy surge of Spiritual Energy, ending with self-detonation.

"Can you... solve it?" Fang Jinxiu asked.

Tang Rao slowly opened his eyes, then shook his head: "I can't... With the vital acupoints suppressed and interconnected, with my understanding of Arrays, I simply can't break it. No matter which one I move, it could trigger the eruption of the eighteen Array points, and then, I would explode."

"Damn it..." Fang Jinxiu cursed, "I'll go kill that bitch!"

"If you go, it'll only alarm the enemy, and I'll die even quicker. This Array was inscribed by Yun Xi, and there's no telling if she can activate it directly. If that's the case, then I really won't stand a chance," Tang Rao stopped Fang Jinxiu.

"Damn! Damn!!" Fang Jinxiu continued to swear, becoming increasingly agitated.
