Murong Xue remained silent.
"Is there something you need?"
Lu Chen turned his head and looked at the woman in black robes.
The woman in black robes who caught up didn't react much when she heard this. She just looked at Lu Chen quietly without saying a word.
"You guys talk first!"
Murong Xue sensed that the woman in black robes seemed to have something she couldn't say while she was present, so she tactfully left.
Lu Chen stared at the woman in black robes with a blank expression.
She is indeed very beautiful.
Compared to a fairy like Murong Xue, she possessed a more sickly delicate beauty, yet the cultivation technique she practiced was so strange.
"You've revealed my true identity. Now I belong to you. Whether you marry me or not, I'll stay with you! Unless I die!"
The woman in the black robe had a resolute expression.
Lu Chen immediately felt a headache coming on.
"Why?"
He doesn't quite understand the thought process of this kind of person.
The woman in black remained silent for a long time, and just as Lu Chen was about to lose his patience, she said softly, "I come from a very rare race. All of us are like this. This is a prohibition we have been taught since childhood, and we must abide by it..."
"stop!"
Lu Chen didn't want to listen anymore; he could guess what was coming next.
What ethnic group is this?
That's so bizarre.
Thinking about this, he actually felt a little sympathy for the woman in black.
She's so beautiful, yet she can't show her true face.
Instead, they had to pretend to be men, for fear of having their true identities revealed.
If you're accidentally seen, you either marry him or die.
Such a life is so meaningless.
I'd rather be dead.
"Fine, do whatever you want. You can come with me if you want, but I won't marry you, understand?"
Lu Chen made it clear directly.
To avoid trouble later.
The woman in black robes remained silent for a moment, then said, "Understood!"
"What can you do?" Lu Chen's tone softened slightly, and he suddenly realized that he seemed to be missing someone to run errands for him.
There used to be Chan'er, but now Chan'er is gone.
This woman in black robes isn't someone we can't keep around.
"Raising insects!" the woman in black robes uttered.
"Um?"
Lu Chen was stunned for a moment.
He suddenly remembered that he had previously felt that the woman's cultivation method was very strange and different from others.
Looking back now, something still seems off.
The black mist emanating from her body carried an eerie, corrupting aura.
Moreover, her own cultivation level doesn't seem to be particularly high.
Seeing Lu Chen's surprised expression, the woman in black robes suddenly opened her hand, revealing that her palm was shrouded in a cloud of black mist.
Lu Chen was puzzled.
The woman in black robes controlled the black mist to dissipate, and in her delicate, spring-green palm, a black beetle the size of a fly was slowly crawling.
Lu Chen suddenly felt a chill run down his spine.
"They're playing with insects!"
No wonder she once said that she came from a very special ethnic group.
It's quite unique.
Lu Chen frowned and asked, "With your unique cultivation method, why did you come to the Myriad Swords Sect?"
"My people no longer exist!"
The woman in black robes said hatefully.
Lu Chen immediately understood.
"Aren't Zhou Dong and Zhou Liang your servants?"
"They are nothing but puppets I control!"
"puppet?"
"Controlled by insects!"
Lu Chen's heart skipped a beat. Could this woman be trying to get close to him and then control him with the insects?
Seemingly sensing Lu Chen's thoughts, the woman in black robes said softly, "We women of the Witch Insect Clan are loyal to only one person throughout our lives, and that loyalty will never waver."
Lu Chen shrugged.
Of course he wouldn't believe it. Besides, this so-called Witch Insect Clan had long since been wiped out, leaving only her. Who would care about clan rules anymore?
Over the endless years of cultivation, countless once-powerful and unparalleled experts have vanished into the long river of time.
It's quite normal for those once-terrifying tribes to gradually turn into dust.
Lu Chen didn't take it to heart.
But when the woman in black robes saw that Lu Chen didn't believe her, she became anxious and flipped the dagger in her hand, directly slashing at her own wrist.
What are you doing?
Lu Chen was startled.
This so-called Witch Insect Clan is too strange; they're always threatening to die.
The woman in black robes did not answer, but her wrist-cutting action was swift and decisive. Her fair wrist was slashed open, and crimson blood flowed out. Using her blood as a medium, she drew a mysterious six-pointed star array on her pale chest.
A flash of blood streaked across the sky.
Lu Chen was surprised.
The woman in black robes reached out her hand to Lu Chen and said, "Your blood!"
"what?"
Lu Chen became wary.
The woman in black robes said, "This is the blood pact of our Witch Insect Clan!"
"What are you doing?" Lu Chen asked, puzzled.
The woman in black robes said, "After we establish a blood pact, you will be my master, and I will never betray you!"
Lu Chen was utterly speechless.
I even felt a little like laughing.
Lu Chen shook his head. "I don't need your loyalty. You can leave at any time. Your people are all gone. Why cling to such outdated rules?"
The woman in black robes said resolutely, "But I'm still here!"
"If I really listened to you and signed that blood pact with you, then I would be controlled by you, right?"
Lu Chen smiled.
The woman in black robes looked surprised, seemingly not expecting Lu Chen to be so wary.
"If you don't believe me, then I have no other choice but to die!"
