Chapter 12: Absolute Loyalty to Me



As she closed her eyes in thought, Mo Shisheng gently pursed her lips. Suddenly, she touched the wound on her lip, hissed, and frowned slightly. She raised her hand to touch the wound on her lip.

Thinking of the devilishly handsome man she had encountered at the hot springs in the back mountains, Mo Shisheng was furious. "Xie, do you know who he is?"

"..."

Suddenly called out, Xie was inexplicably enraged, looking completely bewildered. "Who?"

"It's that guy!"

Mo Shisheng frowned even more deeply. "If I wanted to know who he was, would I need to ask you?"

evil:"……"

So, who exactly is this "coming and going" person?

"..."

Mo Shisheng waited a long time for Xie's reply, took a few deep breaths to calm herself, and then asked, "You don't know who the man we met at the hot spring in the back mountain was?"

"..."

Xie weakly began, "I was so overwhelmed by your stench back then..."

Mo Shisheng: "..."

What should I do? I'm so angry I want to hit someone!

Knowing that she wouldn't get the results she wanted from Xie, Mo Shisheng got up, took off her clothes, and changed into a simpler set of clothes.

Sitting in front of the dressing table, Mo Shisheng saw her face reflected in the bronze mirror. Her snow-white skin was crisscrossed with dark brown scabs, which looked terrifying and made one's scalp crawl.

Mo Shisheng's eyes darkened slightly. No wonder that man had called her an ugly woman... she really was ugly enough...

Refocusing her gaze on the bronze mirror, Mo Shisheng raised her hand and tucked the hair behind her ear, clearly seeing the Heart of the Ocean that had made her a wanted criminal worldwide in the 25th century.

Her entire body shimmered with a translucent, azure light, which was now embedded in her earlobe. She let her hair down and sighed softly.

Upon hearing Mo Shisheng sigh, Xie asked, "What's wrong with you now?"

"You're probably a jinx."

Mo Shisheng's tone was tinged with disdain, "I've never had any good luck since I stole from you. First, I was wanted worldwide, and then I was transported to this wretched place. You, you, aren't you a jinx?"

"..."

Xie said he didn't want to either!

But Xie was still quite clever. Mo Shisheng was furious, and Xie dared not and could not afford to provoke her! So remaining silent was the wisest choice! He patted himself on the back for his wit!

"By the way, I need to go to the black market. Shangguan Yan didn't have a single reliable person by his side when he was alive, so it's inconvenient to do many things." After her initial frustration, Mo Shisheng accepted the reality. Since she was already here, there was probably no way she could go back.

Since we're already here, let's make the best of it.

"The black market? Why don't you just ask that old man Shangguan Leiting for people?" Xie felt that Mo Shisheng didn't need to buy manpower from the black market herself. Since Shangguan Leiting had them readily available, why bother?

"I want my own trusted confidants."

Mo Shisheng coldly replied, "You must be absolutely loyal to me."

"Then what about me? Why are you so comfortable with me doing so many things?" Xie was smug, thinking he had gotten in through connections, but Mo Shisheng's next words poured cold water on his enthusiasm.

"Do you think I would keep you around if you weren't inside me, sharing my fate? You should know that when I go crazy, I'll even hit myself." Mo Shisheng tied her long hair into a ponytail, put on a veil, and walked towards the door.

evil:"……"

He finally managed to gain a little bit of recognition, so why shatter his confidence so completely? He's not entirely useless, is he?
