chapter 3 Suppress a Cold and Handsome Beauty===

Serena Mu hurriedly got up, but what met her eyes was unexpectedly a painting of a mesmerizing ink-splashed beauty.
The man beneath her had ink-black dishevelled hair, gleaming with a soft radiance under the cool moonlight, even smoother than satin.
He had a pair of ice-blue eyes, abyssal in their depth, so still they seemed to not even stir a ripple, as if they could devour a person's soul.
With a high and straight nose, lips tinged with crimson, two parts cruel and two parts enchanting, yet there was a sinister quality that ran bone-deep.
He was like a ruthless King of the Asura, and at the same time, a devilishly alluring demon.
His ice-cold hand mercilessly gripped Serena Mu's neck, the aura of death looming.
Those frigid eyes seemed capable of freezing Serena Mu on the spot, exuding a bone-chilling malevolence.
"I didn't mean to overpower you!" Serena Mu said with a wry smile.
A man as dominant and self-assured as him being used as a stepping stone by a woman wouldn't lead to murderous intentions.
But who would have known, he actually said, "The Eternal Pavilion, on you?"
His voice was as rich and intoxicating as a wine aged for millennia, beguiling.
The Eternal Pavilion, in an instant, information about the Eternal Pavilion flooded her mind.
The Eternal Pavilion, also known as the Ninefold Chaotic Pavilion, was one of the Nine Eternal Divine Artefacts.
And the youth in the lake was the spirit of the Ninefold Chaotic Pavilion. Between them, there was a binding soul contract.
Such treasures only existed in myths, and once they emerged, they would attract powerful figures from all directions.
Yet, she had somehow lucked into a contract with it, and now she had caught the attention of this terrifying powerhouse. Serena Mu watched the formidable man warily, wondering how he knew the Ninefold Chaotic Pavilion was on her.
Serena Mu blinked, a trace of confusion in her eyes, asking, "Sir, what is the Eternal Pavilion? Why have I never heard of it?"
Her contract with that thing was domineering, and if it perished, she would die too.
"There's the aura of the Ninefold Chaotic Pavilion on you," he said.
His thin lips curved in a cold, cruel arc, marking the beginning of a slaughter. In those cold, icy-blue eyes, it seemed like all her lies had been laid bare.
Goosebumps rose on Serena Mu's arms. "The Ninefold Chaotic Pavilion has already formed a contract with me. Killing me won't make it disappear. If you want it, you'd better release me now so we can talk properly."
Indeed, upon hearing this, he let go.
Seizing this opportunity, Serena Mu leaped up.
But the man approached her like a ghostly apparition, this bloodthirsty Asura pressing her until she could hardly breathe.
Serena Mu clenched her teeth. She, Serena Mu, the Ghost Doctor, was not one to surrender easily. Even though today's opponent was overwhelmingly powerful.
In an instant, her hands, elbows, and knees transformed into her own weapons, attacking him. Without potions or spiritual power, close combat was her only option.
However, the man's speed was incredibly fast. Serena Mu's attacks missed completely, and his hands, like lightning, seized her arms.
Just then, "Bang—"
Serena Mu raised her right leg and kicked the man's knee, giving her hands freedom.
The man attacked again, and Serena Mu squeezed out every ounce of her potential to fight back.
The man's speed was almost on par with hers, as if he didn't use the special powers of this world at all. Serena Mu widened her eyes, never expecting this man to be so arrogant.
He was actually suppressing his strength to fight her up close.
Well, then, let him see the close combat techniques of the 21st century!
They exchanged blows for dozens of moves. Her once elegant golden dress now looked even more tattered, revealing more than intended.
At this moment, she was forced to a tree by her opponent. She helplessly said, "Hero, I know I'm no match for you. What do you want in order to let me go?"
"Let the Ninefold Chaotic Pavilion come out and meet me."
"What if I refuse?"
He had no way of contacting it. He completely disregarded whether she lived or died. How could she bring it out?
"Die!"
A single word, dripping with terrifying intent to kill. Goosebumps rose on Serena Mu's arms.
At this moment, Serena Mu wrapped her arms around his neck, leaning close to his ear, breathing hot air. "Handsome, it's not a good habit to talk about death so casually, you know? This lady is so beautiful that if you don't kill me, I'll be worth even more."
Clearly, the man in front of her stiffened suddenly.
"Let go," he said coldly.
"Haha. Handsome, you're really cute. Are you shy?"
His aura grew even more terrifying, but Serena Mu thought, if she was going to die anyway, why not have some fun annoying this powerful and intimidating man.
Just as the terrifying pressure was about to overwhelm her, Serena Mu's hand turned and pressed against his kidney point. If this acupoint suffered a heavy blow, he would never be a man again.
Serena Mu said coldly, "Handsome, if you don't want to become a eunuch forever, it's best not to kill me, okay?"
"Hiss..."
His devilishly enchanting face froze for a moment.
She actually dared...
At this moment, Leo Ji wished he could devour this woman alive.
"To secure your future happiness, send me to the Mu family."
She remembered that her little uncle seemed to be the number one expert in the Purple Moon Kingdom. Now, only her little uncle could save her from this man.
Just as Serena Mu thought she was about to escape the clutches of this demon, her head suddenly throbbed. Damn it! This body was too weak. The high-intensity battle, combined with the pressure from this man, had already pushed her to her limit.
