Chapter 58 Chapter 58 It’s a regular deal, dear
Ye Nanque asked the question he'd been wanting to ask: "Nothing special, just wondering, is our Book Transmigration Administration... legitimate?"
System: [Guaranteed to be legitimate.]
This tone of customer service deepened Ye Nanque's suspicion, but soon he had no time to take care of the system.
Because Jiang Caiyu...he seems to be a little abnormal.
First, he took Ye Nanque's body to the spiritual spring room in the back mountain and let Ye Nanque's body soak in the spiritual spring all day long to keep his skin and flesh from rotting. If this move could still be understood, then Ye Nanque really could not understand what he did to Mu Jiulin.
He locked Mu Jiulin in the Demon Prison, which was even more secure than the place where he had imprisoned Chou Song last time.
Jiang Caiyu now does two things every day. She stares at Ye Nanque silently during the day and stares at Mu Jiulin silently at night. Except for not sleeping, her daily routine is extremely regular.
Ye Nanque was baffled, and so was the system. After a long time of research, they couldn't figure out Jiang Caiyu's intentions. However, they could tell that Jiang Caiyu didn't have good intentions towards Mu Jiulin. He hadn't found anyone to treat Mu Jiulin, allowing him to burn in the Demon Prison for almost a month.
Ye Nanque was very anxious, fearing that Mu Jiulin would burn himself to death, but he could do nothing but watch immersively.
After having a fever intermittently for a while, Mu Jiulin finally woke up.
When he opened his eyes, Jiang Caiyu was standing opposite him, looking at him with an expressionless face.
Mu Jiulin didn't notice his own situation, and his first question was, "Where is he?"
Ye Nanque: [Ask me?]
The system said sarcastically: [If not you, who else should I ask? After all, he forcefully kissed someone before he died. That was terrifying.]
Ye Nanque: […forced by circumstances.]
System: [Just keep talking tough.]
Jiang Caiyu said calmly: "You broke your promise. You promised me to bring him back."
"...I...I broke my promise?"
Mu Jiulin frowned slightly. He was not very sober and tried hard to recall everything that had happened before. His expression gradually changed.
He wanted to move forward, walk up to Jiang Caiyu and ask her clearly whether the scenes in his head were a dream or really happened, but he found that his wrists and ankles were all tied up, his meridians were blocked, and his sword was not with him, so he could not get close to Jiang Caiyu at all.
"Is this... the Demon Prison?"
Jiang Caiyu didn't hide it and explained it clearly: "Where else do you want to go? The celebration banquet? I can tell everyone that you are in seclusion in the Yu Jian Sect, no one will suspect it."
Mu Jiulin's head still hurt. He tried to sort out the confusing and confusing scenes, but the first question he asked was, "Where is Senior Brother now?"
Ye Nanque: [Actually, I'm right here.]
System: [Shut up! Don't ruin my movie-watching mood.]
Jiang Caiyu looked at him indifferently, then suddenly curled the corners of her lips and smiled softly. Ye Nanque had rarely seen Jiang Caiyu smile, and seeing her suddenly smile like this in this scene really gave him a chill.
He supported himself with his hands and rubbed his forehead. The more he rubbed, the deeper his smile became, and the deeper the smile became, the weirder it seemed. After all, Jiang Caiyu rarely smiled, and a smile was not very suitable for his face, and it looked very stiff.
"Strange, you actually called him Senior Brother, haha. I thought you would be like them, calling him a devil, a villain... but you actually called him Senior Brother? When did you start calling him that? I remember, it was from the day I brought you into the Imperial Sword Sect that you started to try to please people like this. You have always been good at showing a smile to others, making everyone have no defenses against you. I was wrong, I was really wrong, I shouldn't have let you in. Everything that happened today was caused by me, it turned out to be all my fault."
Jiang Caiyu paced back and forth, and as she spoke, she fell into a delirium.
He slowly approached Mu Jiulin, almost asking, "When did you start to hate him? You had no intention of saving him from the beginning, so you were so decisive when you killed him? Why would I believe you? Why... did I believe you then?"
Mu Jiulin murmured: "I...I kill him?"
Jiang Caiyu was puzzled. "Don't you remember? You should have remembered such a great achievement. Now everyone outside is calling you Young Hero, and the Sword Controlling Sect is also taking advantage of it. It's a pity that you probably can't leave, otherwise, you would definitely be in great glory, Young Hero Mu."
Mu Jiulin remembered, or rather, he could no longer deliberately forget. The scenes above Hengshui kept replaying in front of his eyes. He closed his eyes, then opened them again, looking at Jiang Caiyu grinning, laughing heartily: "Yes, I had planned this a long time ago. I hated him from the beginning. I hated his hypocritical look, and I hated the way he always pretended to be obedient in front of you. He was obviously a nobody, a nobody, but he was lucky enough to be brought back to the Yujian Sect and raised by you early. He actually thought he was a role model of a gentleman. I hated him the first time I saw him, and I couldn't wait to find an opportunity to kill him. I lurked by his side for a long time, pretending to be kind, and gained his trust. Slowly, he really trusted me, and even you believed in me."
Jiang Caiyu quickly stepped forward, stretched out her hand to grab Mu Jiulin's throat, and asked coldly: "What did you say?"
Mu Jiulin smiled with his eyes rolling. His face was already flushed due to the low-grade fever, which made him look very healthy and in a good mood. "Hengshui, thanks to this sword, if I hadn't stumbled upon this magic sword in the Sword Sea of the Yujian Sect, I wouldn't have gotten what I wanted so quickly. Speaking of which, I want to thank you, my good master."
Ye Nanque: [What's going on here?]
System: [I don't know. I'm confused too.]
Mu Jiulin coughed as he was pinched. "Master Jiang, Lord Jiang, why are you so angry? You're not like the old you at all. That's right, he was your most prized student after all, so he's bound to be furious when I killed him. What? You want to avenge him, so why don't you kill me? He's just a mediocre Ye Nanque. There are plenty of them in the world. If you like raising children, I'll find you another one. You have a long and blessed life, so raising him for another twenty years won't be a problem. What do you want to do now?"
The hand on Jiang Caiyu's waist was already trembling, clearly unable to suppress his anger. Mu Jiulin felt the hand on his neck tightening, causing his throat to hurt, but he felt very happy.
But Jiang Caiyu quickly withdrew her hand and exposed him: "Are you... deliberately seeking death?"
Mu Jiulin sneered: "Why would I do this? I'm so happy, why would I do such a thing?"
Jiang Caiyu pondered for a moment: "...Are you afraid that I will torture you, so you want to kill yourself?"
Upon hearing this, Mu Jiulin deliberately showed a panic expression: "What nonsense are you talking about? Your cultivation is lower than mine. Even if you trap me for a while, what does it matter? Do you really think I can't escape?"
Jiang Caiyu felt something was wrong, but couldn't put her finger on it. She just said, "I won't give you a chance to escape."
Mu Jiulin gritted his teeth and pretended to be angry.
Jiang Caiyu added, "I didn't know you would wake up today. I came here in a hurry and without any preparation. Next time, I will definitely treat you generously, Young Master Mu."
Mu Jiulin shouted: "Jiang Caiyu, I advise you to let me go as soon as possible, otherwise..."
Ye Nanque didn't hear clearly what he said next. He followed Jiang Caiyu out of the Demon Prison, thinking that Jiang Caiyu would definitely go to the Lingquan Room in the back mountain to see him again. After all, Jiang Caiyu had only been to these two places during this period of time.
But this time, Jiang Caiyu went to Siyin Pavilion and went to the seventh floor alone.
On the seventh floor of Siyin Pavilion, various potions are placed.
Logically speaking, there wouldn't be any evil things in a righteous place like the Sword Controlling Sect. However, because the Sword Controlling Sect is warlike and often seizes various spoils, they count and store any that are not needed in the Silver Pavilion, so occasionally some evil things would appear.
For example, the bottle of "bad taste" potion in Jiang Caiyu's hand now.
It has a terrible taste and is a very poisonous herb, something from the demon clan. If you eat it, your internal organs will rot from the inside out, causing unbearable pain, but it will not kill you. In the end, you will turn into a monster with your skin and flesh rotted away.
Seeing Jiang Caiyu examining this carefully, Ye Nanque was about to explode: [What...what does he want to do?]
System: [You can't even tell? Of course it's for Mu Jiulin, right?]
Ye Nanque: [No, why? Even if we take a step back, Jiang Caiyu isn't such a vicious person.]
System: [If the protagonist can become gay, it's not surprising that Jiang Caiyu's character becomes more vicious.]
Ye Nanque scratched his head in frustration: [Why on earth is this happening?]
The system smiled evilly: [Are you really not aware or are you pretending not to know?]
Ye Nanque: [What are you laughing at? Is this funny?]
System: [At first, I didn't expect things to develop in this direction, but as I watched, I actually got a little hooked. It's quite exciting. The days are getting more and more promising.]
Ye Nanque: [How can your system be so dark inside? Can you please hope for some good things for others?]
System: [What the hell! I was just reading a novel and you're judging me. Can't I just enjoy it? They're just a few 2D characters. What? Are you feeling bad for them?]
Ye Nanque felt chest tightness and shortness of breath, an indescribable discomfort: […Go away.]
Jiang Caiyu came out of Siyin Pavilion with the potion and was stopped by the young disciple who was in charge of Siyin Pavilion.
The young disciple smiled and said, "Master Jiang, what did you take? Please register it here."
Jiang Caiyu took out the potion: "This."
Young disciple: "This...what does Master Jiang do with this poison?"
Jiang Caiyu: "Research."
Ye Nanque felt very tired. When did Jiang Caiyu learn to lie? And she could tell lies so fluently and without arousing any suspicion.
Sure enough, the young disciple smiled slightly and said, "I see. I have registered it. Uncle Master, you can take it."
The management system of their Yu Jian Sect really needs to be improved!
Jiang Caiyu took away the "bad taste". The young disciple looked at Jiang Caiyu's back and secretly admired her. He said with emotion: "Master and the uncles are right. It is true that one should learn throughout life. Even Uncle Jiang is still working hard on research behind the other uncles' backs. I can't be lazy either."
