Chapter 257 - 257 Mansion Master, Can You Help Me Pass on a Message…
257 Mansion Master, Can You Help Me Pass on a Message…
Liu Yuan took a deep breath. Perhaps it was because the situation was too bad, or perhaps his heart had been trained, but other than the chill in his heart, he did not panic much.
“What’s there to panic about?” Liu Yuan was desperate. “A real cultivator at the Crossing Calamity stage is here. She can turn me into ashes with just a thought. What’s the use of panicking?”
However, it was obvious that the purple-robed ‘Netherworld’ did not plan to kill Liu Yuan immediately.
From her words, her original plan was to let the killer Wind Ghost use the Demonic Forging Dagger to turn Liu Yuan into a demon.
She would wait until Liu Yuan, as a demon, was beaten up by everyone, had no way out, and was deserted by his friends and family. She had admired Liu Yuan’s despair enough, and then she would kill him.
!!
Her deep hatred for Liu Yuan and the power of her negative favorable impression points could be seen from this method.
But now that Liu Yuan had really become a ‘demon’, it instantly disrupted her plan, so she had no choice but to come out personally.
Liu Yuan was sure that even the Mansion Master of Bi Luo Mansion would be surprised and curious about the fact that a person he was once familiar with had suddenly turned into a demon.
Liu Yuan did not believe that she had not been surprised or suspicious of her earlier appearance, especially when she had already planned to turn Liu Yuan into a demon.
In other words, she was probably willing to listen to Liu Yuan’s dying words.
Liu Yuan had tacitly acknowledged the identity of the demon race and also had the idea of using this to make a fuss.
When he first faced Ning Xiangrong’s questioning, he had already used the identity of a spy in the demonic sect that the Sea Slashing Tower had put in. Now, it wouldn’t hurt to add a setting of a spy in the demon race.
After gradually getting used to the cold, Liu Yuan had a feeling that a dead pig was not afraid of boiling water. Since he was going to die anyway, he might as well give it a try. He raised his head and said with a smile, “I never thought that I, Liu Yuan, would trouble the Mansion Master of Bi Luo Mansion to kill me. I’m just a nobody.”
At least, this way, Ling Hua could live.
As he spoke, he moved behind Ling Hua. “However, Mansion Master, you have to think carefully this time. Although I’m just a weak, pitiful, and helpless nobody…!”
“But there are many women who are willing to give up everything for you and have extraordinary status and cultivation.”
Netherworld sneered. She glanced at Ling Hua, who looked very nervous, as if she was a fool who had been deceived by a scumbag. She said, “Ranked second on the Singing Sword Ranking, the adopted son of the City Lord of the City of Ten Thousand Swords and the son-in-law of Xuanyin family, and you tell me that you’re just a nobody? Your other abilities are nothing special, but your skill in playing with women’s feelings is truly top-notch. No wonder…”
She paused for a moment, and her voice finally softened. Then, she said indifferently with her hands behind her back, “I should just kill you, and then let them come. This Lord will beat them one by one to wake them up. If they continue to be stubborn, then I’ll add a few more vigilantes in love for you.”
As an evil faction, Bi Luo Mansion had always been unreasonable, so it was natural for Netherworld to be so overbearing and cruel. However, Liu Yuan could vaguely sense a hint of seduction in her tone.
That’s right… there was a hint of pride when she said the words ‘vigilantes in love’.
Liu Yuan suppressed the thoughts in his heart and cleared his throat. He was determined to court death once and for all. “Then… what if the Jade Mirage Sect, Luo Shengtian, Netherworld Cliff, City of Ten Thousand Swords, Sky Treasure Pavilion, the four aristocratic families, the Green Centipede, Baishan Court, the Southern Wilderness, the Northern Barbarians, the demon beast and merman races, and even the Sea Slashing Tower’s… What if all of them come after the Bi Luo Mansion?”
There were all sorts of names, big and small. The list of names was like a list of dishes. Netherworld fell silent and said, “You’re really audacious. No wonder you dare to kill the assassins of the Bi Luo Mansion.”
She was obviously referring to the two girls, Bie Xiaoshuang and Wen Luxue. As expected, they even knew about this.
Liu Yuan’s expression didn’t change. “You flatter me…”
Netherworld smiled again and said, “But you’re really stupid to count the Jade Mirage Sect in. Do you think that after today, your little lover will be able to leave the Spirit Transformation River alive and become the Sect Master to avenge you? Even if she is lucky enough to escape, the position of Sect Master will only be decided in the other three palaces. This is already destined.”
Ling Hua held the Demon Subduing Sword tightly, and lightning flickered on the sword. She was extremely anxious. She knew that the Blood-Burning Pill in Liu Yuan’s body would not last long. It was because of this that Netherworld spoke so slowly. She wanted to wait for Liu Yuan to be exhausted, and then reap his most desperate moment.
The Jade Mirage Senior Sister was about to overdraw her cultivation to summon the Thunder Tribulation. This was the best way to deal with a cultivator at the Crossing Tribulation stage, because the Thunder tribulations would attract each other. If It would be best if she could draw the Thunder Tribulation to fall on Netherworld.
At this moment, Liu Yuan shrugged. “What does it matter? She’s not the only woman I have in the Jade Mirage Sect, so what if I’m dead? I can’t wait for a beauty to die with me. It’s wonderful to die together with her. But you have to be careful, Mansion Master. It’ll be terrible if the Bi Luo Mansion supports someone who’s determined to take revenge for her husband.”
Ling Hua’s movements paused. It suddenly turned around and looked at Liu Yuan, her sword-wielding hand trembling slightly.
‘Determined to bear with it and take revenge for her husband’… Liu Yuan’s tone softened as he said those words, as if he was trying to persuade her. However, his tone was also firm.
Her long hair was loose, and a few slightly wet locks stuck to the side of her white cheeks. Her expression, which had just shed tears not long ago, showed a kind of dazed and disbelieving look.
Netherworld’s beautiful blue eyes suddenly widened. Then, she burst into laughter. “This Lord was still thinking how much you loved her. But it turns out you’re the same as her… You two are determined to die together?”
Her tone suddenly turned cold as she raised her hand and spread out her five fingers, covering Liu Yuan’s figure. She said in disgust, “Look at this man’s true face. So many sects and even races… He treats feelings as a game, he only desires beauty and has no sincerity at all. He even wants to drag you down to die with him. Don’t feel sorry for him!”
Two more streaks of tears streaked across Ling Hua’s face. She closed her eyes. “Yes, yes… I see it clearly now.”
Liu Yuan was surprised to see that the progress bar above the soul puppet’s head had become locked. He thought to himself, ‘I actually got an unexpected harvest at this time.’
Liu Yuan was still very sensitive to the changes in people’s emotions. Netherworld’s hatred for him had already reached her bones, and her eyes were almost burning with fire. She wanted to tear Liu Yuan into pieces immediately. After that, she would burn his bones and scatter his ashes. However, she did not care much about Ling Hua.
However, because of her hatred for Liu Yuan, if she felt that Liu Yuan cared about Ling Hua, it would be dangerous. Therefore, the only way to save Ling Hua was for Liu Yuan to say that he did not care about Ling Hua at all.
However, if he did that, he would really have no way out.
What a shame…
Liu Yuan was relieved and sighed. Forget it, these few months had been more exciting than the first half of his life. It was worth it.
The next moment, a gloomy and vast spiritual power came crushing over. Liu Yuan looked at the purple-robed woman wearing the bronze ghost mask, her beautiful glass-like eyes, and her long hair that was like red algae. Liu Yuan suddenly said softly, “Mansion Master, can you help me pass on a message…”
Netherworld was disgusted and wanted to refuse immediately, but when she saw his difficult but determined expression, she hesitated for some reason.
Liu Yuan said nostalgically, “Back then, you asked me which was more important, external or internal, and I didn’t answer you. Now that I thought about it…”
“I think appearance is still the most important thing!” he said seriously after a pause.
“Huh… Are you serious?”
