Moon Goddess Hikaru stood beside him silently.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She wore a loose silver robe, and her moon-like eyes looked unusually nervous.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I’ve been looking for you for a long time and even thought of coming to Lily’s residence.\" she said softly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No... Don’t come anywhere near Lily’s residence. My wife is already upset. By the way, are you missing me...?\" Tony asked with a deliberate smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hikaru ignored his teasing and immediately pulled him along. \"Follow me quickly.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Where are you taking me?\" Tony asked in a questioning look.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Shhh...\" Hikaru gestured him to stay silent and looked around before pulling him away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two quietly left the academy grounds entirely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After nearly twenty minutes of travel through hidden mountain paths, they finally reached a lonely mountain peak far away from the academy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the center stood a single small white tree glowing faintly under the fading night sky.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because of NO-MOON_DAY, it was getting dark from all sides.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tony observed the strange tree carefully. The surrounding area looked completely ordinary.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Hikaru walked directly toward a small hole beneath the roots.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Come.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before Tony could even ask questions, Hikaru jumped downward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tony paused for a second, but then jumped directly. The two bodies slid rapidly through a hidden ice tunnel deep beneath the mountain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After several seconds— The tunnel suddenly opened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tony’s eyes widened instantly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A massive underground glacier cave appeared before him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Small water stream flowing at lower reagion and ice flakes streched downward like giant silver swords into a crystal-clear pond below.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The entire underground space glowed faintly blue from countless natural crystals embedded inside the cave walls. Cold mist drifted gently across the water surface.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The scene looked unreal. Even Tony remained stunned for several seconds.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"WoW... This place... How did you find it?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hikaru immediately covered his mouth with her hand nervously. \"Shhh!!! Don’t shout loudly!\" she whispered hurriedly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then she tightly held his hand again and slowly guided him deeper inside the glacier cave.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the center of the underground pond rested a beautiful stone bed entirely made of pure ice crystal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Beside it were neatly arranged dozens of rare herbs, jade bottles, golden needles, and several glowing moon-colored flowers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hikaru stopped beside the ice bed while nervously lowering her gaze. \"This is the place I picked. Nobody knows about it. And... all the herbs are already prepared.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She slowly lifted her beautiful eyes toward him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Shall we begin...?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Are you ready?\" Tony asked in return.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hikaru shifted her gaze away as the meaning was obvious. ’Are you ready to get naked and show your naked body!’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She struggled to keep her thoughts in place.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tony Clark, on the other hand, was trying very hard not to stare at her too much.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The atmosphere between them felt strangely awkward after their earlier conversation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Especially the part about her needing to remain naked during the treatment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You should first cleanse your body completely,\" Tony finally said while pretending to sound calm and professional. \"The Moon Goddess curse reacts strongly with impure life energy.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hikaru nodded silently. Without saying another word, she slowly stepped into the crystal-clear pond.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The icy water rippled softly around her body. Even though she entered the water with clothes on, the thin silver robe quickly became wet and tightly clung to her body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Haaa...\" Tony rubbed his forehead helplessly. ’Why the hell I feel troublesome looking at women body...?’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Trying to calm his thoughts, Tony immediately began preparing the treatment materials. With a wave of his hand, several herbs floated one after another.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>BOOM!!!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A gigantic black cauldron suddenly appeared in the center of the glacier cave.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The heavy sound echoed across the underground chamber.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even Hikaru turned around in shock.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The cauldron was almost as tall as Tony himself. Ancient beast carvings covered its surface while dark red patterns glowed faintly near the bottom.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The entire object looked ancient and oppressive.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Where did you get that?!\" Hikaru asked with wide eyes while stepping out of the pond slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tony looked at her soft, plum mounds and grinned proudly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The Academy Treasury!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hikaru’s lips parted in disbelief.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But this thing is huge! How did they even allow you to take it out?!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hahaha...\" Tony laughed shamelessly. \"Don’t underestimate the Clark family heir.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But how did you pay for this? It must have costed a lot of academy cash, right?!\" Hikaru asked while staring at the huge couldron.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Sadly, those idiots tossed this thing into a corner without knowing its real use. Thankfully, I saw it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hikaru stared at the cauldron again carefully. For some reason, she felt a faint ancient pressure leaking from it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But... how are you going to use it?\" she asked confusedly. \"Doesn’t this require enormous flames?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tony smirked mysteriously. \"That’s why I robbed... ah, I mean borrowed... some useful treasures from the academy treasury.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With another wave of his hand, six crimson crystals floated into the air. The entire glacier cave temperature immediately rose slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Fire Crystals?!\" Hikaru exclaimed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tony nodded proudly. \"High-grade fire crystals. Enough to melt even steel within seconds.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without wasting more time, Tony directly placed the six crystals beneath the cauldron.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then he activated his life energy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>BOOM!!!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The fire crystals exploded with crimson flames instantly. The black cauldron began trembling heavily.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ancient beast carvings engraved across its surface suddenly lit up one after another.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>ROARRRR!!!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A deep beast roar echoed from inside the cauldron itself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hikaru’s eyes widened completely. The rising flames beneath the cauldron suddenly twisted upward into the shape of a gigantic fire tiger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then another flame transformed into a serpent. Then a wolf. Then a dragon-like beast head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The entire underground glacier cave became illuminated with dancing beast-shaped flames.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even Tony became stunned. ’What the hell...? I only wanted to refine some medicine pills. Why is this thing reacting like a legendary artifact?!’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meanwhile, outside the hidden mountain... Dark clouds slowly began gathering above the sky.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Several disciples inside Nine Lotus Academy raised their heads in confusion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Why did the weather suddenly change?!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That pressure... what is happening?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even several elders came out of their residences while staring toward the distant mountains suspiciously.\u003C\u002Fp>",1053,"2026-06-05T19:16:31.203Z",1,"novelbin.me","55cebfedb18f39675e45cd81536f0166da777c40721ed8bf2bb71992214feba0","urban-villain-system-chapter-135","urban-villain-system-chapter-16",143,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Furban-villain-system-cover.jpg"]
