Chapter 438 We Are the Villains

Finally, considering that both Xue Shan and Li Sheng's situations needed an explanation, Si Linglong alone could not hide it, so she finally confessed all the problems that happened to the two boys, including the content of her conversation with Yuan Zun just now.

Although Helian Yue already knew about Xue Sha's transformation, when he heard her confession, he still made a slightly surprised expression and spoke in a deep tone.

"To think that such a thing could happen..."

Yuan Zun on the side subconsciously glanced at the emperor who had brought disaster to the country. After a while, he lowered his eyes slightly to hide the smile in his eyes.

Although Si Linglong confessed frankly, she was still nervous in her heart. At that moment, she was only focused on Helian Yue's reaction when he knew the truth, and did not pay attention to Helian Yue's slightly anxious acting when he said this.

“…That’s how it is.”

[We villains speak directly when we have something to say, and don’t play the misunderstanding trick of the protagonist where you keep it a secret and I keep it a secret.]

Si Linglong consciously put herself in the villain camp of Helian Yue. She picked up the teacup on the table and sighed to herself,

[As expected of me, I am sincere and frank. Ah Yue must be very touched by my trust in him. 】

Helian Yue: ...

If he hadn't known a few days ago that she distanced herself from him because of Xue Sha's transformation, he might have really believed it...

However, it's not her fault that she kept it secret for the first time.

If it were him, if he hadn't met Si Linglong and hadn't inexplicably acquired the ability to read people's minds, I'm afraid he wouldn't be able to accept these things so easily now.

He looked at Yuan Zun. Compared with Si Linglong's secret speculation, Helian Yue was more accustomed to asking directly.

"What does Master Yuanzun want?"

Only when both parties have ulterior motives can the transaction be accomplished.

If it was just a pure dedication, not only Si Linglong, but even he would not be able to trust the other party.

Yuan Zun looked at Helian Yue with his clear eyes. His eyes, which had never been tainted by worldly dust, were rarely misty. Then, he made a request that neither Si Linglong nor Helian Yue had expected.

"Yuan wants to be the imperial teacher of Dayuan."

Si Linglong was suddenly stunned.

Although Helian Yue was surprised, he did not show much emotion on his face.

Xue Sha was even more stunned.

National Master?

No, isn't it because of her hair and beauty? !

What's so good about being a national teacher?!

To be honest, Dayuan did have a founding national master, who was a sorcerer who founded Dayuan together with the ancestors. He was said to be very proficient in the art of hexagram formation. However, after the national master died, his successors were mostly mediocre, so the position of Dayuan national master was gradually taken away. To this day, some court officials are not even aware that Dayuan still has the position of national master.

Not to mention the court officials, even Si Linglong, the reader, didn't know.

[There is no imperial master in the original novel! ]

[Although I don't remember many details clearly, I definitely wouldn't forget about a national teacher, a handsome white-haired man with strange powers and the manners of a banished immortal.]

Helian Yue was still pondering the feasibility of Yuanzun's request when he suddenly heard someone's heartbeat in his ears. He couldn't help but frown and looked towards her.

He's just a slightly better looking guy, is he worthy of her calling him handsome?

I have never heard her praise it so much!

For a moment, Helian Yue just wanted to refuse Yuan Zun's request for the position of national teacher.

However, it's just a thought.

He had seen Yuan Zun's abilities and was indeed interested in his proposal.

But he couldn't agree directly, so he just asked,

"If I hand the Snow Killer over to you, can you ensure that it remains intact?"

The problem of Xue Sha needs to be solved, and now it seems that only Yuan Zun can solve it.

Upon hearing this, Yuan Zun nodded calmly, "Nothing is wrong. If Your Majesty is worried, you can send a trusted secret guard to follow."

"How long will it take?" Helian Yue asked again.

Yuan Zun glanced at Xue Shan, who was obviously a little anxious in Si Linglong's arms, and suggested a lenient time, "One month."

"Ten days." Helian Yue made the final decision.

Yuan Zun smiled but did not bargain. He just said, "After returning to Beijing, Yuan needs a secluded house."

"Yes." Helian Yue stood up and said, "I will temporarily hand over Xuesha to you for ten days. After ten days, if it is damaged, I will show no mercy."

Even if the wizard is cunning, he always has the ability to control him.

Yuan Zun also stood up and bowed slightly to Helian Yue.

Si Linglong didn't expect that Xue Sha's plan would be decided in just two sentences. Xue Sha didn't expect it either. He reacted belatedly and was so angry that he slammed the table with his claws.

What happened to the agreement that her opinion should prevail? !

He actually made the decision without even asking her. Do you look down on me?!
