But just as the icicle stained with black mist was about to pierce Yingti's back, the icicle suddenly melted, turned into water mist and disappeared into the air.
"who?"
Long Junling shouted loudly, but his voice was sealed in a barrier that had appeared at some unknown time, and Yingti in front of him was unaware of it.
A smiling female voice sounded from behind, "Of course it's me who enjoys helping others."
Long Junling turned around suddenly and saw Su Man. He didn't curse, but his knees softened and he knelt down.
"Shi Man, I beg you, please help me. I don't want to live like this, not even for a single day."
At this moment, Long Junling is completely different from before, and his self-esteem and pride seem to have disappeared.
Su Man looked down at Long Junling, who was like a stray dog at her feet. She bent down and looked at him, "What's the matter? Doesn't Your Highness pride himself on being noble? Can a little bit of ghost energy affect Your Highness?"
Perhaps because he had seen Su Man's ability, he did not dare to get angry even though Su Man teased him like this. He just kept begging, "Shi Man, everything in the past was my fault. As long as you help me get rid of the evil spirit, when I get out of here, I will definitely marry you as my imperial concubine."
“Tsk.”
Su Man straightened up and slowly stood in front of the corridor. "Long Junling, although you were born superior to others, all your pride comes from your origin. So once your status as a prince of the Celestial Clan is gone, you will fall from the top of the cloud into the mud, with nothing left."
"I just..."
Long Junling's chest heaved violently. He wanted to refute, but he had no reason to refute.
Su Man tilted her head. "Although I'm not at the top of the world right now, I've climbed up step by step. It has nothing to do with my status or circumstances. So, the title of Imperial Concubine may be a reward to you, but to me, it's just an empty title."
“…”
If these words were said to Long Junling when he was in high spirits, he would not only not listen, but would also think that Su Man was just sour grapes. But today, every word Su Man said made him unable to even raise his head.
He quietly raised his eyes to look at Su Man. She was still wearing the same red dress she wore when he first met her, but she was no longer the timid little fox demon.
It was clearly a face that was evil and seductive, but his expression was extremely indifferent. Such a contrast was heart-wrenching.
Su Man turned her head and looked him in the eye at just the right moment, a smile creeping up her cheeks. "However, you still have one more chance to change your fate."
In the reflection of Long Junling's pupils, the bright red color gradually enlarged until it stopped in front of him.
-
"What? You want me to betray the Celestial Clan?"
Long Junling refused without a second thought, "Impossible, I am the prince of the Celestial Clan, I would never betray the Celestial Clan."
Su Man chuckled softly. She looked up at the barrier above her head and said, "You are reluctant to leave the Celestial Clan, but the Celestial Clan is reluctant to leave you."
Thinking of the cold treatment he had received in the past few days, Long Junling's originally firm gaze began to waver.
Su Man pressed on, "Do you know why I stopped you just now? If you had lost your mind and hurt that maid, her master could have used the excuse that you were corrupted by the ghost energy and your temperament had changed drastically, and executed you or expelled you from the Heavenly Palace."
Long Junling was stunned for a moment. After he figured out the eldest prince's intention, he felt a sense of fear.
"While you might be able to escape this calamity, it's hard to say whether you can survive the next one. Furthermore, you're currently at the mercy of others, unable to do anything but sit and wait for death, without even a chance to fight back. Even if you can survive, do you intend to spend the next ten million years here?"
"No..." Long Junling said subconsciously.
"So, what is your Highness's answer?"
After a while, Long Junling gritted his teeth and said, "Tell me, what should I do?"
Su Man's smile deepened. "Then please do me a small favor first, Your Highness."
-
After coming out of Long Junling Palace, Su Man already knew how to use the Wheel of Samsara based on his translation.
Just as I was about to leave, I saw Xian Yu Fu standing at the palace gate.
Seeing her appearance at this moment, Su Man was a little surprised. Her soul was incomplete, as if it was about to fly away.
It had only been a few days, even if Long Junling hadn't cared about her, she wouldn't have been like this. Could it be that she didn't want to live anymore?
Seeing Su Man, Xian Yufu sneered, "Does it look good? My miserable state."
"It's okay, let's see how it goes."
"I was wondering why you were so kind as to help me get rid of the evil spirit, but it turns out you had malicious intentions to alienate us!"
"Alas, that's wrong."
Su Man shook her head and said, "It wasn't me who alienated you, but you yourselves. Do you still remember what you thought when I forced Long Junling to be infused with ghost energy that day?"
Xian Yufu's face froze. Rather than worry, she felt more relieved that Long Junling was the same as her.
"Even though you knew that Long Junling was already infested with ghost energy, you still accepted my help. Let me ask you, did you ever consider accompanying Long Junling into the Ghost Sect?"
"I..."
"Haha, you're not stupid, of course not. But Long Junling isn't stupid either. He knows exactly what you're thinking. So, do you still think you're wronged?"
Xian Yufu's soul was too transparent, and Su Man couldn't see her expression clearly. Before leaving, Su Man left a message.
"The law of nature is reincarnation, and no one can escape it."
...
As soon as Su Man returned to the ghost world, she was attracted by the chirping sounds in the cave.
"Dad, this is my Uncle Jiaolong. Don't look at him like a loach now. He is injured. When he recovers, he will be very majestic."
