After finding Lan Nian, Wang Xinrui, who thought she knew the truth, knocked on Chu Nian's door and said with a dark face, "Let's talk."
Chu Nian asked calmly, "What do you want to talk about?"
Wang Xinrui: "I want to terminate the contract we signed before."
Chu Nian: "Sure!" But then again, once something is lent out and someone else has used it, it's no use taking it back, because it's never the same again.
Wang Xinrui was a little surprised that she agreed so readily. Although she still didn't know what Chu Nian and Lan Nian meant by "the most precious thing", she knew that something that could be considered precious by these two powerful women must be extraordinary.
She had thought Chu Nian would never agree, but since the other party had readily agreed, she readily said, "I haven't touched that 30 million yet, I'll return it to you soon."
Chu Nian said, “No need.” She smiled and said, “I’m not that stingy, and besides, I don’t lack those tens of millions.”
Bai Ze has already bought a villa, and they are moving in tomorrow.
Besides, she's already borrowed that thing. Once she's digested it, she won't return it. If Wang Xinrui returns those tens of millions, the power of the contract will be completely ineffective. According to the laws of nature, even if she's digested it, she'll probably have to spit some of it back.
She didn't want her cultivation, which had been stuck at a bottleneck for countless years in both her past and present lives, to finally break through and then be back to square one overnight.
Wang Xinrui asked suspiciously, "Are you really willing to terminate our previous contract?"
Chu Nian: "Of course." Anyway, over the past few months, she had already absorbed and refined most of the aura energy on Wang Xinrui's body. Since Wang Xinrui no longer had an aura, the existence of the contract was no longer meaningful.
After she finished speaking, she raised her hand and tossed it, and the contract reappeared in the void.
Chu Nian said, "You can make a vow to break the pact now, but you will still have to use blood as the bond."
"Like when we signed this contract before?" Wang Xinrui asked, somewhat surprised. No compensation or anything like that? This was really unlike the woman in front of her!
"Yes," Chu Nian nodded.
Wang Xinrui hesitated for a moment, but ultimately felt it was best to terminate the contract as soon as possible. So, following Chu Nian's advice, she bit her finger and dripped a drop of blood onto the contract, saying, "I have finished negotiating with Lan Nian, and both parties agree to terminate this contract."
Chu Nian then repeated Wang Xinrui's words and actions.
Wang Xinrui felt the contract in her mind disappear quickly, and she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
After she left Chu Nian's room, she saw Lan Nian in the living room. Lan Nian asked, puzzled, "What did you go to see her for?"
Wang Xinrui figured that since the two of them were living together, she couldn't hide it from them, so she confessed, "I went to her and terminated that contract."
Lan Nian quickly used her divine sense to carefully examine Wang Xinrui. The aura of the contract was indeed gone, but the halo around Wang Xinrui had not recovered. She, always eager to stir up trouble, said, "What you lent her is probably a one-time consumable. Once she's used it up, even if you terminate the contract, it probably won't be of much use."
Wang Xinrui was startled and exclaimed in horror, "You mean, my illness still can't be cured?"
Lan Nian: "Even if your illness is cured this time, it will relapse, and it is very likely that one bad thing after another will happen to you."
Wang Xinrui murmured in fear, "How could this be?!" But she quickly remembered Lan Nian's supernatural abilities and said, "Senior, I have a favor to ask."
Lan Nian quickly said, "Since you know it's an unreasonable request, then don't say it."
Wang Xinrui's lips twitched several times, and finally she shamelessly pleaded, "Senior, could you please grant me another one of those spiritual medicines? My body is in such a state..."
“The elixir cannot change your fate,” Lan Nian interrupted her. “Besides, I am no longer the person I used to be, and I have no choice in what I do!” As she said this, her voice suddenly turned cold. “If you hadn’t come to me back then and encouraged me to go to Lan Nian first, I might not have ended up like this today.”
Although, given that woman's capabilities, she would definitely come after him after learning the truth, that would be a long time from now. However, because of his miscalculation in listening to Wang Xinrui's instigation, he brought forward the time it took for that woman to learn the truth by a considerable margin.
Wang Xinrui sensed the coldness in her tone and quickly said, "Senior, I never expected that her personality would change so drastically one day."
"Heh," Lan Nian sneered, "Do you think she's still the same silly Lan Nian she used to be?"
Wang Xinrui looked at her with some surprise, not knowing what she meant by those words.
Lan Nian: "She was already..."
"Lan Nian!" Chu Nian's languid voice suddenly came from the room, interrupting Lan Nian.
Lan Nian was jolted as if by electric shock, and immediately froze. The shock made her eyes widen, and she didn't dare to move for a long time, nor did she dare to say another word.
Seeing that someone as remarkable as her was so terrified by Lan Nian in the room, Wang Xinrui couldn't help but feel extremely uneasy and quickly turned around, opened the door, and left.
Watching her departing figure, Lan Nian thought, since her halo has almost disappeared, could she take her life with a single palm strike?
After hesitating for a moment, Lan Nian abandoned the idea. Although she was angry with Wang Xinrui because of her current situation, she also knew that Wang Xinrui was the target of the person inside. If she took action and disrupted that person's plan, who knew how that person would deal with her?!
Thinking that Wang Xinrui was Chu Nian's target, she wondered if Chu Nian's soul would be extracted if Wang Xinrui died and received her due punishment.
Although the initial rules of these book worlds were established by Bifeng, and Bai Ze was involved, it was Bifeng himself who exerted all his efforts regarding Chu Nian's situation. However, as time went on, the cycle of Heaven's Way was established, and some rules recognized by Heaven's Way became ironclad laws, which would be enforced on their own regardless of Bifeng's involvement.
Thinking about it this way, Lan Nian regretted not making a move. Shouldn't it still be in time to catch up now? If Wang Xinrui were to die, Chu Nian's soul would be extracted, and wouldn't she regain her freedom?
But what if the woman's soul hadn't been extracted?
In that moment of hesitation, her divine sense detected that Wang Xinrui had already left the building and entered the highway after leaving the community...
She was probably trying to hail a taxi when a speeding car slammed into her and sent her flying. Just then, another car came from the other direction, and she flew right in front of it. The car braked slowly and ran over her.
Lan Nian: ...
I wonder if Wang Xinrui can even survive like this?!
