The female lead is powerful, ruthless, and stunningly beautiful—she stops at nothing to get what she wants. Sheng Wu, the Ghost King sealed beneath the Abyss of Ten-Thousand Ghosts, is cruel and ...
Piaomiao Mountain.
late at night.
Sheng Wu looked at Luo Qi who had been frozen in the cold bed, his eyes slightly lowered, revealing deep meaning.
"Master, Luo Qi..."
Huai Jin, who was standing beside him, frowned and his tone became a little worried.
Sheng Wu looked at Luo Qi's heart, then slowly turned around.
"He won't die." With just one cold word, he left the ice cave.
Seeing this, Huai Jin's black pupils moved, and he looked at the frozen Luo Qi with concern, and then followed.
Since Master said they won’t die, then they won’t die. At least she won’t let them die now.
Huai Jin followed Sheng Wu into the main hall.
Seeing that there was no emotion on Sheng Wu's face, he raised his eyebrows and walked forward to kneel beside Sheng Wu.
"Master, I have to rush back to the trial."
Sheng Wu raised her beautiful eyes calmly, "Why are you so nervous? Are you so concerned about that trial?"
After saying that, she sat on the couch and took out another pot of wine.
Huai Jin, who had lowered his head, raised his eyes and frowned slightly. He saw that she had changed more than ten jugs of wine in her hands since she came back. After a second of silence, he pursed his lips and spoke.
"Disciple doesn't care about the trial. If disciple cares, you will feel that your disciple is not as good as Yu Chenming."
As Sheng Wu drank with her sleek chin tilted slightly, her expression changed slightly, and she even curled her lips and sneered, "You are indeed not as good as him, isn't that the truth?"
The hero is still the hero after all, how can the villain's luck match his?
Even though she had been pushing Huai Jin and Yu Chenming to improve their skills for so many years, their cultivation was almost on par, but the benefits brought by Yu Chenming's luck were unpredictable.
“…”
Huai Jin knew that he shouldn't expect her to look him in the eye, but he still couldn't help but feel a pain in his heart. He numbly gathered his jade fingers under his sleeves and squeezed them tightly, as if this could suppress the unwillingness and bitterness in his heart.
"Yes, I am not as good as him, but I will never betray Master. I will get first place in this trial and will not let Master down for the past five years of training."
He was worried about Luo Qi's life, but he was also secretly happy that Yu Chenming had really pushed his master far away.
Huai Jin took a light breath, not daring to look directly into the coldness in Sheng Wu's eyes. He just lowered his gaze to her moist red lips, and his textured voice was deep and hoarse.
"Master, Yu Chenming is no longer a disciple of Piaomiao Mountain. He has two hearts towards you, so I will satisfy you on behalf of my eldest brother."
Even though his long feathery eyelashes were covering it, the overwhelming paranoia and desire that was almost impossible to hide in his dark and cold eyes almost leaked out.
Hearing this, Sheng Wu put down the wine jug in her hand, placed one hand on her bent right knee, and spoke coldly to him in a royal sister voice as if calling a puppy.
"come over."
The slender and perfect jade fingertips hooked back, and the fingertips were full of charm.
Huai Jin slowly raised his head and looked at Sheng Wu. He might have drunk too much. His narrow and beautiful eyes were almost as bright as a pool of spring water. His Adam's apple moved and he couldn't help but slowly half-stand up. He knelt on the carpet and moved his knees towards Sheng Wu.
“Master…”
The young man with broad shoulders and narrow waist, wearing a mask on the left and a handsome face on the right, was kneeling half a meter in front of the woman.
He knew that this was Sheng Wu's bottom line. She didn't like others touching it. In the past five years, he never dared to cross this line and make her angry and disgusted.
Listening to the boy's sweet whispers, Sheng Wu curled her red lips, stretched out her hand and pinched Huai Jin's neck.
"Your life or the master's favor, what do you choose?"
She was half-lying lazily, her lavender and gold-gilded fairy robe had been replaced by a plain white dress, her hair scattered behind her like a waterfall, and the candlelight in the middle of the night swayed slightly in the wind, bringing a dim feeling.
But it couldn't hide her cold yet charming beauty.
Hearing this, Huai Jin spoke without hesitation.
"Master, from the moment I was given a name by you, my life will belong to you."
But at that time, he still had hostility and purpose, and wanted to grow with the power of Shengwu, but now he wants more. He wants her to be strong and to be by his side!
"Oh."
Sheng Wu chuckled softly, and the next second, her eyes turned fierce and she pinched his neck tightly.
"You know, this is a treasonous and immoral act."
One is the Immortal Lord of Xianyun Sect, and the other is his disciple. Although the world of immortal cultivation does not attach as much importance to rules as the human world, they also know that this is against human ethics.
After all, once a teacher, always a father.
Hearing this, Huai Jin's black pupils trembled. He knelt with a slight smile on his face and spoke in a deep voice.
"If Master cares about that false reputation, then what is the point of you allowing your disciple to exist now?"
Or rather, wasn't she intentionally turning herself into what she is now, a cowardly dog that still wanted to stay by her side?
He knew it, he had always known it. At first, he just wanted to borrow her power to grow and pretend to be what she wanted him to be. But now, even he couldn't tell whether it was just an excuse for his own purpose.
Or maybe he really couldn't let go.
But it doesn't matter, as long as he continues like this, he will finish this dream.
Seeing that he confessed directly, Sheng Wu's cold face remained silent for a few seconds, and then she loosened her hand that was pinching his neck.
"You are smarter than him..."
The beautiful eyes that were cold just now now seemed to be more blurred and misty because of being drunk, and for the first time in history, they were wrapped in a trace of indescribable sadness.
Huai Jin, who was looking directly at her, began to doubt whether he had seen it wrong. This was not the first time she had said this to him, but this time her emotion was different. There was a hint of tenderness and softness in her eyes as she looked at him.
