Master fell into evil? I took the blame for the heroine

After Luo He and Yu Chuchu entered the attic, they looked around quietly.

The attic was filled with a faint fragrance, with a slightly sweet taste, but it could not cover up the strange smell hidden in it.

The surrounding decorations were extremely elegant, but Luo He's perception was that a faint demonic aura was seeping out from everywhere.

Just as they were exploring carefully, they heard the sound of light footsteps.

Luo He and Yu Chuchu looked up at the same time and saw an old man slowly walking out from the depths of the attic.

The old man's face was gloomy, his eyes narrowed, and a hint of coldness lingered between his brows. His steps were steady, and the undeniable fluctuations of late Jindan cultivation emanated from him. He was clearly a powerful individual with extraordinary strength.

The old man looked at Luo He and Yu Chuchu, his eyes revealing a deep meaning. His voice was low and hoarse, with a hint of undisguised scrutiny: "I wonder what brings you two distinguished guests to Tianyun Tower?"

Chapter 180: Shocking Changes in the Building

Luo He smiled faintly, his expression indifferent, as if he didn't notice the old man's inquiry.

He looked around casually, his eyes indifferently falling on the ancient incense burner and decorations placed everywhere in the attic, and his tone was calm.

"The scenery here is unique, and I can smell the subtle fragrance. I couldn't help but come in and take a look. Tianyun Tower is an interesting place. I wonder if there's anything special I can see?"

Upon hearing this, the old man smiled faintly and nodded, "I see. Since you two are interested in Tianyun Tower, I will introduce it to you."

He waved his hand slightly, motioning the two to follow him, and said slowly.

"This place is truly extraordinary. It's called 'Tianyun Tower,' a special place provided by the Nantian Pavilion for high-level cultivators. It specializes in selling a variety of precious incense. Each spice is of the highest quality, able to calm the mind and aid cultivation. I wonder if you two would be interested in taking some back with you?"

Luo He smiled and nodded: "The reputation of Tianyun Tower is indeed well-deserved. We have heard that the incense of Nantian Pavilion is extremely effective. We are fortunate to come here in person this time. If we can take some back, it will be worth the trip."

He spoke casually, without much fluctuation in his expression, and his words were understated, just a casual response.

Yu Chuchu stood aside with a faint smile on her face. As her eyes moved, she seemed to be attracted by the elegant decoration and precious incense of the attic. She praised softly, "Nantian Pavilion is indeed worthy of being a major sect. Even this incense burning place is so exquisite."

The old man smiled slightly, a hint of satisfaction flashing in his eyes.

He slowly turned around, took down an exquisite porcelain box from a shelf on one side, handed it to Luo He, and said slowly: "This box of 'Qingxinxiang' is one of the special features of Tianyun Tower. It can calm the mind and purify the soul. It is extremely beneficial for cultivation.

If you are interested, you may want to take a box and try it out."

Luo He took the porcelain box and weighed it gently. The box was slightly cool, with a hint of chill.

He opened the lid of the box, and a strange fragrance wafted into his nose. The fragrance was elegant and pure, yet with a hint of refreshing sweetness, as if it could instantly calm people's minds.

“It really smells good.”

Luo He nodded slightly, with approval in his tone, but he did not relax at all in his heart.

The moment he opened the porcelain box, he keenly sensed a very faint demonic energy. Although it was extremely weak, he could not ignore it due to his special physique.

Yu Chuchu glanced sideways at the porcelain box, a flicker of interest in her eyes. She whispered, "The Qingxin incense is indeed well-deserved of its reputation. This fragrance is truly unique." She looked up at the old man with a gentle smile on her face, as if she greatly appreciated the fragrance.

A hint of satisfaction flashed in the old man's eyes and he nodded slightly.

"You two have a keen eye. This 'Pure Heart Incense' is crafted from rare medicinal herbs such as century-old Ganoderma lucidum and Tianshan Snow Lotus. Only a very few guests have the opportunity to see it. This incense can also help to clear the mind and nourish the spirit. After a cultivator uses it, it can accelerate the absorption of spiritual energy and enhance the effectiveness of their cultivation."

Luo He nodded with a calm expression: "It does sound extraordinary. It is very suitable to carry some with you."

His tone was casual, and on the surface he seemed quite satisfied with Qingxinxiang, but in his heart he remained vigilant.

Luo He knew very well that a place like Tianyun Tower, no matter how elegant and quiet it appeared on the surface, must actually be hiding hidden secrets.

While he was pondering, the old man continued, "If you're interested in Qingxin Incense, we have several other spices here, each with different benefits. Incense like 'Spiritual Heart Incense' and 'Soul-Calming Incense' are perennial bestsellers, highly recommended by many elders in the Nantian Pavilion."

Luo He nodded slightly and smiled calmly: "Nantian Pavilion is indeed very profound. Even spices like these are so exquisite. We are lucky."

The old man nodded and smiled, then led the two to a display stand nearby.

There are several incense boxes displayed on the shelf, and each box of spices is sealed with exquisite jade or porcelain, exuding a low-key and luxurious beauty.

Yu Chuchu gently picked up a celadon incense box, opened the lid, and a scent of green grass filled her nose.

"This one is the 'Spiritual Heart Incense', which can help regulate emotions and eliminate the inner demons and troubles of cultivators during their cultivation."

The old man stood aside, his eyes sharp, as if observing every subtle reaction of Luo He and the other two.

Luo He smiled lightly and nodded, gently sniffing the scent of Lingxinxiang, with a hint of thought in his eyes.

He secretly sensed the subtle energy fluctuations contained in the fragrance. Although it appeared to be an excellent spiritual fragrance on the surface, there was a hint of unease in the fluctuations.

At this moment, Yu Chuchu's gaze slowly moved to an exquisitely carved incense burner in the corner of the attic. The incense burner was simple and majestic, with intricate patterns of spiritual beasts engraved all over it, as if exuding the power of spiritual energy flowing.

Yu Chuchu is good at using fragrance. She seems to have a special scent body, so she can feel the unusualness of the fragrance.

She murmured in admiration, "This incense burner is quite unique. I wonder what material it's made of?"

The old man's eyes flickered slightly, and he smiled calmly, "Young lady, you have good eyesight. This incense burner is made of thousand-year-old black iron. It can gather spirits and drive away evil spirits. When the fragrance burns in it, its effect is even more significant."

Yu Chuchu nodded slightly, her tone gentle: "It's really extraordinary."

Luo He stared at the incense burner in front of him, thinking secretly in his heart.

Although this incense burner was simple and majestic, the faint demonic energy emanating from it was like an invisible venomous snake, hidden in the subtle fragrance and almost imperceptible. If he didn't have a special sensitivity to demonic energy, he would probably have mistaken it for just ordinary spiritual incense.

"The demonic energy... is actually hidden in the fragrance."

Luo He's heart sank slightly. This wasn't just any ordinary incense, but more like a forbidden item deliberately set up by someone with ulterior motives.

If you are not careful, you will be affected, your mind will be distracted, and your soul may even be corroded by evil spirits.

He remained calm, maintaining a casual air of observation, but within his mind, he was already rapidly connecting all his doubts: Why would the Nantian Pavilion have these incense burners emitting demonic energy? Was it intentional, or was it someone else's doing?

Luo He turned his head and glanced at Yu Chuchu beside him. She was casually looking at the spices on the shelf, still with a faint smile on her face, and didn't seem to notice anything unusual.

However, Luo He knew that with Yu Chuchu's cultivation level, even if she had not directly sensed the demonic energy, her keen intuition would have allowed her to detect it long ago.

Just as Luo He thought, Yu Chuchu had always been on guard and had activated her fragrance-isolating bell to isolate strange fragrances.

This is also the reason why she dared to step forward boldly.

However, the old man looked normal and smiled at Yu Chuchu: "If I'm not mistaken, your physique is very special. It's a rare demonic fragrance body, right?"

Yu Chuchu's expression changed.

This old man was even more powerful than she had imagined.

Could you tell her physique?

"You do have a natural resistance to fragrance, but what about stimulating it within yourself?"

The old man sneered as he stepped forward with his hands behind his back. "You two came all the way to Tianyun Tower, thinking I couldn't tell what you were up to, trying to gather intelligence, right? Boy, you're still a little naive. This isn't something you can get involved in."

Yu Chuchu shuddered, and a strange fragrance climbed up to her nose.

She only felt that what she saw in front of her eyes began to become hazy and blurred.

Chapter 181 Yu Chuchu is possessed by a demon

Yu Chuchu's body trembled, and a gentle and mysterious fragrance climbed up to her nose like an invisible silk thread.

She tried hard to ignore the subtle scent, but after a brief struggle, she only felt a tingling warmth spreading throughout her body.

The fragrance was gentle but pervasive, flowing into her consciousness like an undercurrent, and the scenery in front of her began to blur, like peeping at the moon in the fog, with hazy shadows.

At the same time, Luo He, who was standing nearby, also noticed the strange fragrance.

He frowned and immediately mobilized the spiritual power in his body to dispel the fragrance, but just as he held his breath, the fragrance had penetrated into his perception like a light mist.

He felt as if his consciousness was gently teased by something, and his thoughts became a little hazy for a moment.

However, Luo He's consciousness was extremely strong, and alarm bells immediately rang in his heart, clearly realizing that there was evil energy hidden in this fragrance.

"Oops, there's something wrong with this scent!"

While Luo He was secretly on guard, he secretly looked at Yu Chuchu beside him. Her expression had long lost its usual liveliness, and her eyes had lost their former clarity. Her gaze was dull and blank, and it was obvious that she had fallen into confusion.

At this moment, the old man slowly took a few steps closer, a hint of pride in his eyes, as if he had already expected this scene. His eyes fell on Yu Chuchu, and his voice was low and seductive: "Forget everything about today and go back."

There was an unquestionable command in his voice, and the power of control was implied in his words, hitting Yu Chuchu's consciousness like a heavy hammer.

"Yes……"

Yu Chuchu's eyes became increasingly dazed, and her response was as soft as a whisper, as if she had completely lost her will. The corners of her lips moved slightly as she repeated the old man's command.

Although the Charming Fragrance Body has a unique physique that can confuse others and is resistant to fragrance, it also has a flaw, which is that it is difficult to control.

Once your own innate fragrance is stimulated, you will be easily affected.

The old man used his fragrance to attract Yu Chuchu's innate fragrance.

At the same time, the Tianyuan Demon Record quickly turned the page in Luo He's mind, and the description of the fragrance in front of him popped up:

[Bewitching Incense: This fragrance is created by the demon clan, using a mixture of various evil incense and refined with extremely deep demonic energy, specifically targeting the human mind.]

The fragrance can penetrate the human consciousness without distinction, causing a loss of self and a controlled mind. The scent of the incense is extremely fine and light, making it difficult for the smeller to detect.

While inhaling a small amount may only cause a feeling of drowsiness, prolonged inhalation is enough to completely control a person's memory, emotions, and thoughts. Those with lower cultivation levels are more vulnerable to this influence, their minds easily altered. When instructed to "forget" or "accept," they will obey completely, as if their mind has been lost.

[Once the incense of bewitching spirits enters the body, it is extremely difficult to dispel unless it is cleansed by the spiritual power or anti-magic power of a great monk.]

Luo He secretly thought that something was wrong. The power of this magic incense was so strong that even a Jindan cultivator could hardly resist it.

As expected, the hidden demonic mechanism in the Tianyun Tower of Nantian Pavilion is definitely not something that ordinary cultivators can crack.

The old man walked slowly towards Luo He, his turbid and cold eyes looking straight at him, as if penetrating the surface and deep into the soul.

Luo He felt a heavy pressure enveloping him, and the air around him seemed to be stagnant because of the old man's power.

He lowered his head, looked vacant, and put on an appearance of being at the mercy of others, as if he had completely lost his self-awareness.

In fact, the Luohe Altar is still clear and bright at this moment.

The fragrance that tried to invade his sea of ​​consciousness was like an invisible vine. Although it entangled him, it was dissolved by the invisible force the moment it touched his sea of ​​consciousness.

The [Snow Qiong Fragrance] that secretly surged in Luo He's body was like a cool snowy area, protecting his consciousness, cold and pure, isolating him from all intrusions from the outside world.

The scent of Xueqiong was left by Fu Xueqiong for Luo He. The aura of a powerful person in the Spirit Transformation Stage protected him, just like an invisible barrier, isolating the strange fragrance from outside.

【Xueqiong Fragrance】Invincible.

This time, Luo He consciously controlled himself from using Xue Qiong's rebound.

Luo He secretly breathed a sigh of relief deep in his heart, but at the same time he also realized that resistance was not the best strategy at this time.

Yu Chuchu is now deeply confused. If he reveals that he is awake, it will make the old man more alert and he may even take more severe measures against Yu Chuchu.

After careful consideration, Luo He decided to remain in place for the time being, pretending to be under control and observing the old man's next move.

A smug sneer flashed across the old man's eyes, and he said coldly, "You should also go back and forget what happened today."

Luo He lowered his head, his face expressionless, and replied softly, "Yes."

His eyes were unfocused and dull, his arms hanging casually, his gaze blank, as if he had completely lost consciousness.

The old man looked at the two people in front of him with satisfaction, as if confirming that his control had taken effect.

"Very good, very obedient."

The old man nodded with satisfaction, a sneer of disdain on his face, as if everything was under his control.

He narrowed his eyes slightly, looked at Luo He and Yu Chuchu, and said coldly: "You two, go back and enjoy every day in your room."

His words were profound, as if hinting at something.

Luo He immediately realized that there was definitely something wrong with the room arranged by Nantian Pavilion.

The old man arranged the fragrance to control them. His purpose was definitely not just to make them behave themselves. Instead, it seemed that he wanted to use the continuous effect of the fragrance to gradually erode their will and completely control them, and perhaps even further assimilate them into some kind of loyal puppets.

Luo He and Yu Chuchu left the Tianyun Tower, which was filled with demonic energy, in a daze and walked on a quiet path. There was no sound around them, as if this place was isolated from the outside world by an invisible barrier.

Their steps were mechanical and unconscious, like puppets being manipulated. The old man's fragrance enveloped them like an invisible net, forcing them to obey his commands and walk in the designated direction.

Tianyun Tower, the residence of Yu Chuchu and Luo He, has the same name as the place where the old man lives, as if there is some kind of fateful connection between the two, or they are one and the same.

All kinds of speculations emerged in Luo He's mind, but at this moment he had to carefully hide his awake state and not show any abnormality.

Back in their room, Luo He stood at the door, paused for a moment pretending to be confused, and then slowly walked into the room.

Yu Chuchu also followed in, her expression still confused, her eyes without a trace of focus, and she seemed to be trapped in a deep fog.

Luo He glanced sideways at Yu Chuchu, secretly observing her condition, and became more and more worried.

At this moment, Yu Chuchu's body suddenly stiffened, as if awakened by some force, and a kind of madness and charm that did not belong to her instantly appeared in her eyes.

Her breathing became slightly heavier, her eyes were replaced by some kind of strange light, and the expression on her face became more and more strange, as if she had completely lost herself.
