After Liu Lieyu had done all this, he put the bottle into his pocket and ran towards the Chu Palace.
I followed closely behind Liu Lieyu. Liu Lieyu's cultivation level was not high at the moment, so even though I followed him closely, he did not notice anything.
After returning to the Chu Palace, Liu Lieyu found Yinhua.
"You're back?" Yinhua lay lazily on the chaise lounge and glanced at Liu Lieyu with a disdainful look.
"Hmm." Liu Lieyu's gaze towards Yinhua was completely different from his gaze towards Yan'er just now; it was full of love.
Where is the stuff?
"Here it is." Liu Lieyu said, taking the bottle from his pocket and handing it to Yinhua.
Yinhua eagerly took it, opened the bottle cap and absorbed the essence inside. Liu Lieyu knelt at Yinhua's feet, looking at her as if she were the god he believed in.
After Yinhua had completely absorbed the essence from the bottle, she impatiently threw it on the floor and kicked Liu Lieyu, asking, "Why is there so little?"
After being kicked, Liu Lieyu remained expressionless, staring at Yinhua's face with infatuation. "I'm sorry, I'll try harder next time."
My goodness, where did Nv Xin find someone like Yin Hua? She looks exactly like a vicious female supporting character.
"Try harder next time?" Yinhua looked at Liu Lieyu kneeling at her feet, a cold smile appearing on her lips. She squatted down and gently brushed her fingers across Liu Lieyu's face. "This is not enough."
When Liu Lieyu saw that Yinhua was willing to approach him, his excitement was almost unbearable to look at. Yinhua said in a coquettish voice, "I heard that the girls you have used are still alive."
"Yes, alive." Liu Lieyu nodded blankly.
"Alive? What if someone remembers you and exposes you?"
"No, I used sorcery to make them forget."
"Forgot?" A cruel smile appeared on Yinhua's lips. "Wouldn't it be more convenient if he died?" Yinhua's fingers slid down to Liu Lieyu's chest and gently poked him again and again. "If you drain him completely, he'll have more essence."
Liu Lieyu hesitated.
"Unwilling?" Yinhua immediately stood up and asked sternly.
"No," Liu Lieyu shook his head, "It's just...it's just..."
I can tell that Liu Lieyu isn't that ruthless yet; he's unwilling to harm so many people's lives for the sake of his vital essence.
Yinhua didn't press him, but instead snorted and changed the subject, "How's the matter I asked you to ask going?"
"The Second Prince does have a master, but it seems that his master has recently left him, so the Second Prince is very unhappy. By the way, the Second Prince's master has a husband, but I heard that the Second Prince is in love with his master."
I rolled my eyes. That Yan'er is just talking nonsense.
"Have you found out who his master is?"
“His master lives at the Fulin Inn year-round. I’ll go check on him at the Fulin Inn later.”
"Okay." Yinhua nodded slightly.
Why are you interested in such insignificant people?
Yinhua ignored him, saying, "Go ahead and investigate."
"Okay." Liu Lieyu lowered his head somewhat disappointedly.
"Am I making you feel wronged?"
"No, I'm willing."
Yin Hua's previously cold face now wore a pitiful expression. "Lie Yu, you know I'm about to face another tribulation, but how can I withstand it now? I originally wanted to absorb the imperial aura from the Emperor of Chu, but you don't want me to do that with that old man... so I can only ask you to do this."
I was dumbfounded by Yin Hua's sudden change of expression. What a talent!
"I know, all of this is my own choice. You can stay here without worry, I will take care of all your vital energy."
"Thank you, Lieyu."
After Liu Lieyu left, Yinhua resumed her expressionless demeanor.
I sighed. I never knew Liu Lieyu could be so silly.
I'm wondering if the original owner went too far with his methods. If it weren't for all that, Liu Lieyu might not have become so monstrous later on. I remember that when he was the Eastern Emperor, although he was a bit cruel to Nü Xin, he was still a gentleman on the whole. Otherwise, so many demon gods wouldn't have followed Liu Lieyu in rebellion.
I sighed and returned to Fulin Inn. Knowing that Liu Lieyu was coming, I deliberately changed my appearance to avoid him noticing that I looked exactly like Yinhua.
When I returned, You was also at home. These past few days, You had been busy at the First Prince's residence to fulfill her promise.
Although You could heal the concubine instantly, she deliberately used a series of elaborate steps to gradually restore the concubine to her original state.
"How did you become like this?" You recognized me immediately after I changed my appearance.
I whispered in You's ear, "Liu Lieyu will be back at Fulin Inn to investigate us, so I'm changing positions."
You frowned slightly, gently sniffing my scent. "You saw Liu Lieyu?"
“I didn’t see him.” I shook my head decisively. “I concealed myself. I was walking in the suburbs when I ran into Liu Lieyu and a maid from Huo Qi’s mansion having an affair. I heard them talking about us, so I listened for a while.”
You's face darkened immediately. "You watch everything? What's so interesting about that kind of thing? Huh?"
"I didn't see anything."
A cool, distant gaze swept over me, clearly conveying a message: I don't believe it.
I sighed, and then I noticed a demonic aura shrouding the inn.
Liu Lieyu is too inexperienced now; he can't even hide his aura.
You and I pretended not to have noticed anything and continued doing what we were doing. We even went downstairs and ordered a table of food to eat.
The demonic aura around us finally dissipated just as You and I were finishing our meal.
"He's gone."
"Um."
I sighed. I figured he was just eager to harm women again, but none of that mattered to me. I didn't need to be a saint and save anyone right now.
My own situation is still precarious.
"You, why do you think Yinhua sent people to see us?" I revealed my true face as soon as I returned to my room.
You lowered her eyes and pondered for a moment, "Perhaps she sensed something."
"What did you notice?"
No way? Could Yin Hua possibly discover that You and I are from the future? Even Nv Xin couldn't possibly know that.
"Yinhua may not have noticed, but Nvxin might have."
"Is Nvxin really that strong?"
You looked at me, rubbing my head, "She's much stronger than you think."
"Can you tell me about her?" I have most of Nv Xin's memories in my mind, but there are some important details that I don't have, such as the time when she saved Feng Su.
I could vaguely sense that these vanished memories were Nv Xin's true trump card.
If Nv Xin is really that strong, would she need to go to such great lengths to kill Liu Lieyu?
First she confronted him head-on, then she humiliated him with a substitute, then she used her original body to make Liu Lieyu devoted to her, and then she summoned me. What exactly is Nv Xin after?
