"Go to hell!" He was interrupted by Qiao Xueying before he could finish speaking. Qiao Xueying blushed and pushed him away with all her remaining strength.
Chu Chuyan hurriedly helped her up, then glared at him, saying, "At a time like this, you're still making jokes like this."
Zuan was also wronged: "I just wanted to save her. I didn't care about the loss of my life essence. Why are you still criticizing me?"
Chu Chuyan: "..."
Qiao Xueying: "..."
Mi Li was also speechless: "Your shamelessness has repeatedly exceeded my expectations."
Zu An sighed and lamented for a while, but since Qiao Xueying's life was not in immediate danger, he couldn't really do anything to her.
However, he was still resentful in his heart: "Hmph, as expected, three monks have no water to drink. If there weren't two other women around, Xue'er might have given in half-heartedly."
Just then, the Tai'a sword suddenly flew up, its hilt striking Chu Chuyan and Qiao Xueying on the back of the neck, causing the two women to collapse instantly.
Chu Chuyan was preoccupied with taking care of Qiao Xueying and with her worries about what happened with Zu An, so she was completely unprepared and never expected someone to attack her from behind.
As for Qiao Xueying, she is now completely powerless to resist.
"What are you doing!" Zu'an was shocked. He angrily questioned Mi Li while checking on the two women. He was relieved to find that they were just unconscious.
"Kill them!" Mi Li said coldly.
Zuan angrily retorted, "Are you sick in the head?!"
Mi Li snorted: "I know you have a close relationship with them, but romantic love is unreliable. You have too many secrets, and this time they have found out almost all of them, whether it's your super-level talent or your knowledge of the 'Primordial Chaos Scripture'... By the way, if I'm not mistaken, you should also know the 'Phoenix Nirvana Scripture', right?"
Zuan was startled and looked at her warily: "How did you know?"
Mi Li chuckled lightly, a hint of arrogance in her phoenix eyes: "The more severe your injuries, the more your speed, strength, and other abilities far exceed your cultivation level. I read extensively in the palace in my youth and have seen relevant records, so how could I not have guessed?"
Zu An remained silent. This woman possessed extraordinary cultivation and broad knowledge; it would probably not be so easy to deceive her in the future.
"But the only thing I can't figure out is that the Phoenix Nirvana Sutra shouldn't have the effect of granting immortality, so why couldn't I kill you before?" Mi Li's brows furrowed tightly as she pondered the various ancient texts she had seen, but none of them recorded such a strange thing.
Zuan was a little embarrassed. The name "Rich Woman's Happy Ball" was too embarrassing, and he didn't know how to explain it to her.
Fortunately, Mi Li did not pursue the matter further: "Never mind, I'll find out eventually since I'll be by your side."
"What I'm about to say is that if any secret of yours is revealed, it will lead to your death. You should know that whether it's the 'Primordial Chaos Scripture' or the 'Phoenix Nirvana Scripture,' either one is a treasure that would make people all over the world fight over it. Not to mention that you yourself have super-level talent, and countless dying old monsters covet your flesh and blood."
"No one really believes that eating the flesh and blood of someone with super-level aptitude can grant immortality, right?" Zuan felt a little thirsty.
“Even Ying Zheng couldn’t resist this temptation back then, let alone others,” Mi Li’s expression became more complicated when she mentioned Ying Zheng. “For these people, their strength has reached the pinnacle of the world, they have enormous power and wealth, and countless beautiful women and handsome men are within their grasp, so they are more afraid of death than anyone else.”
"For these people, as long as they can achieve immortality, they will try even the smallest hope, since it doesn't cost them anything. So once they know about your superior aptitude, they will devour your flesh and bones completely."
Zuan felt a chill run down his spine and subconsciously replied, "They are all my closest people, they definitely wouldn't reveal these things."
"Ying Zheng was also my closest person back then, but wasn't I betrayed by him in the end?" A ruthless look appeared on Mi Li's face. "Human hearts and feelings are the most unreliable things in this world. Now our fates are tied together, and I will not allow you to have any accidents. So if you can't bear to do it, I will personally kill them."
As soon as he finished speaking, the Tai'a sword floated in mid-air, seemingly about to strike the two women.
Zu'an was shocked and quickly stepped in front of the two women, saying, "You can't deny all feelings in the world just because you were betrayed. Besides, if I killed two such close friends for my own selfish interests, how would I be any different from Ying Zheng, the Qin Emperor you mentioned? I don't think you'd want to associate with that kind of person."
"Although Ying Zheng is harsh and ungrateful, his decisiveness in killing is far wiser than yours." Although Mi Li said this, the sword that was floating in mid-air was slowly lowered.
Zuan couldn't help but ask, "Why does this Tai'a sword obey you so much? Who is its true master?"
Mi Li coldly replied, "Because its sword spirit was severely injured and is currently dormant, in a sense, I can be regarded as the temporary sword spirit of the Tai'a sword."
"You are the sword spirit of the Tai'a sword?" Zaun's eyes lit up. "Then shouldn't you call me master?"
Mi Li: "..."
