Chapter 160: Summon Token

No wonder they call this place the Blooming Sanctuary. These female disciples rushing in are each more beautiful than the last.

Dressed in red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and violet, their outfits each have their own unique charm.

For a moment, it really felt like being surrounded by a thousand blooming flowers, all graceful and captivating.

Such an incredibly stunning and fragrant scene—there's probably nothing else like it in the world. No one could have ever witnessed something like this before.

But the problem is...

If I accidentally get caught, I might just get drained dry!

Timothy suddenly grew suspicious. "Holy Maiden, you're not actually trying to get me killed, are you?"

"Of course not!" Holy Maiden Aeliana quickly defended herself. "The Blossoms of the Seven Emotions are incredibly potent. Their spiritual energy has enveloped the entire sanctuary, making it impossible for the female disciples to control their emotions.

If this keeps up, things will get completely out of hand.

But I do have another solution.

If we can reverse the effect of the Blossoms of the Seven Emotions on their emotions, we can stop this situation.

However, even if we can use this method, it has to be done at the location of the Blossoms of the Seven Emotions.

The most important thing is that we first need to draw out their deep-seated desires for love before we can complete the process."

Holy Maiden Aeliana explained it clearly, but Timothy suddenly realized something. "So, you're planning to use me as the bait to draw out their emotions?"

"Ahem, well, yes. After all, in my eyes, you're the most handsome man in the world," Holy Maiden Aeliana said, her eyes sparkling with a hint of playfulness.

"Holy Maiden, you've got great taste!" Timothy immediately gave her a thumbs-up in praise. Sёarch* The nôvelFire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Holy Maiden Aeliana smiled sweetly. "Let's go inside, but be very careful not to get caught, or else..."

"I get it," Timothy replied, feeling a bit uneasy.

If he accidentally got caught, with hundreds or even thousands of beautiful female disciples in the Blooming Sanctuary, not even a hundred Energizing Herbs would be enough to save him...

As they entered the sanctuary, Holy Maiden Aeliana sealed the barrier behind them.

A divine golden light enveloped the two of them, completely isolating them from the outside world, thanks to the golden shield Holy Maiden Aeliana had activated.

"Timothy, don't leave us!"

"Don't you want to fall in love, Timothy? Or maybe... something even more exciting?" one disciple teased with a mischievous giggle.

"Timothy, come out! I promise I won't bite... much~"

The female disciples gathered around, their soft laughter echoing in his ears.

Their beautiful faces pressed against the barrier, their gazes filled with tender affection and sweet smiles. If it weren't for the powerful light shield, they probably would've already rushed in and tackled Timothy to the ground.

"Is Holy Emperor Featherwind out of his mind? Of all the Blossoms of the Seven Emotions to destroy, why did he have to pick the Blossom of Love?" Timothy muttered in exasperation.

"Sir Timothy, open the barrier!"

"Look at me, Sir Timothy!"

Seeing that they couldn't get Timothy's attention, the female disciples grew more frantic, even starting to pound on the barrier.

More and more figures gathered around.

Although the female disciples of the Blooming Sanctuary were all slender, with delicate features and voices as sweet as songbirds, being surrounded by them, with their hungry, wolf-like eyes locked onto him, made Timothy's skin crawl.

Holy Maiden Aeliana quickened her pace, finally forcing her way through the crowd.

Once they entered the canyon, she immediately cast a seal and knocked out a few disciples who had followed them in.

Looking at the female disciples outside the canyon, their eyes filled with longing, practically drawing little hearts in their pupils, Timothy let out a long sigh of relief.

This situation would be too much for anyone to handle.

Unlike the chaotic scene outside, the canyon was noticeably quieter.

Before long, two figures appeared to greet them.

"These are my two Holy Envoys, Vera and Autumn," Holy Maiden Aeliana introduced.

"They weren't affected by the enchantment?" Timothy asked curiously.

Holy Maiden Aeliana explained, "The Blossoms of the Seven Emotions have influenced everyone, but their cultivation and mental fortitude are strong, so the effects on them aren't as severe."

Timothy took a closer look at the two women.

Sure enough, although Vera and Autumn were trying their best to appear calm, there was something off about the way they were looking at him.

"Wait a minute, if the Blossoms of the Seven Emotions affect everyone, doesn't that mean even you, Holy Maiden..." Timothy quickly turned to look at Holy Maiden Aeliana.

Holy Maiden Aeliana didn't seem much different from usual.

But Timothy could still faintly detect something unusual in her gaze, and... was that a slight blush on her cheeks?

"Oh, crap!" Timothy suddenly felt a chill run down his spine.

He had thought only the disciples outside were affected, but it turned out even Holy Maiden Aeliana wasn't immune.

This was no joke!

After all, while Holy Maiden Aeliana might not hold much power in front of Sylvia, she was still the leader of a sacred land and a Holy Emperor-level powerhouse.

If Holy Maiden Aeliana really was affected and started having improper thoughts about him...

Timothy never imagined he'd find himself in such a tight spot, surrounded on all sides and potentially facing danger from every direction.

"What are you thinking about?!

Sure, I might want to take advantage of you sometimes... wait, that's not right."

Holy Maiden Aeliana huffed, turning her head away with a hint of annoyance. "Anyway, even if I do crave your body, I'd want to do it with a clear mind. There's no way I'd let myself be controlled by some enchantment and do something reckless."

"The problem is, Holy Maiden, it's hard to believe you when you keep talking about craving my body..." Timothy chuckled helplessly.

But at least for now, it seemed like Holy Maiden Aeliana's willpower was holding strong.

If she really did lose control, he could always use the "Path of Love Letters" to recite love poems to her. Maybe that would be enough to satisfy her...

The Blossoms of the Seven Emotions were one of the most treasured artifacts of the Blooming Sanctuary.

The Blossom of Joy, Blossom of Wrath, Blossom of Sorrow, Blossom of Fear, Blossom of Love, Blossom of Malice, and Blossom of Desire—each flower represented a different emotion, and their power was beyond question.

However, it was precisely because these seven flowers were so precious that the depths of the canyon where they were hidden were extremely dangerous. Even Holy Maiden Aeliana wouldn't venture there lightly.

Once they entered the depths of the canyon, they would have to face the ancient beasts that had guarded the Blossoms of the Seven Emotions for millennia.

"Holy Emperor Featherwind used some unknown method to damage the Blossoms of the Seven Emotions. We must repair them as soon as possible," Holy Maiden Aeliana said, her tone serious, as she immediately started walking toward the depths of the canyon.

Vera and Autumn quickly followed. Glancing back at the scene outside the canyon, Timothy didn't hesitate any longer and headed into the canyon as well.
