Chapter 85 Backlash
Inside the Tianji Pavilion.
In that pavilion where only the moonstone shimmered, through the gray, lacquered windows, the star lords could see a dark shadow flying in from the distant horizon.
Like a meteorite that crashed down at the beginning of time, as the hem of the dark robe fluttered closer to the ground and flew towards the palace behind the screen, the star lords finally understood what was happening:
The one dressed in black was their sect leader, so there was no need to identify him. However, he was carrying someone in his arms. The figure in his arms was covered by black sleeves, but the pair of hands, white as the moon, clinging to the sect leader's shoulders were particularly clear.
Like a bright moon whose radiance was obscured by dense shadows, the star lords could only see a figure in white robes appearing and disappearing, and they also saw that the person seemed to be punching the pavilion master with his five fingers clenched.
The star lords were terrified that the pavilion master would throw them down, but the pavilion master merely leaned down and whispered something in his ear before disappearing into the barrier.
Yao Guang and Xuan Ji already knew the inside story, so they weren't too surprised. However, the remaining few were quite shocked, thinking they had been deducing illusions day and night, and went to study the mysteries of the heavens again.
With a loud bang, Xiao Shuying kicked open the door, while Su Yunyu was still fuming and holding back his anger. He had just peeked out and saw that this was clearly the location of the Heavenly Mystery Pavilion.
Unexpectedly, Long Aotian, with his thick eyebrows and big eyes, who usually looks innocent and pure, had already secretly hooked up with the Tianji Pavilion behind his back.
As the door creaked shut, Su Yunyu felt a sense of utter despair, as if the world had turned dark and the sun and moon had lost their light, knowing she was about to be locked up again.
So when Xiao Shuying gently lifted him and placed him on the frosty white bed, she saw that his thin eyebrows were tightly furrowed, and his eyes did not look at her. They were filled with bright anger, showing his stubbornness in wanting to compete with her.
He glanced at it and said calmly:
"No matter how angry Master is, he will always be entangled with me."
"..."
Su Yunyu's eyes flashed with annoyance. She turned over, lifted the thin quilt with the evening jasmine pattern, covered herself with it, and asked in a low, buzzing voice:
What is your relationship with the Heavenly Secrets Pavilion?
"Master is angry about this?" Xiao Shuying's eyebrows lifted slightly, and she explained softly:
“I made several predictions for them, so naturally they respected me.”
As for how he made the prophecy, Su Yunyu understood without even asking. It turned out that he had used the power he gained from being reborn so many times to establish connections with various factions.
Hehe, no wonder he's destined to be the protagonist, but he doesn't want to be held back by the protagonist's halo at all.
The more she thought about it, the angrier she became. Determined to fight for her freedom, Su Yunyu threw off the covers, sat bolt upright, and glared fiercely at Xiao Shuying.
Are you really going to keep me locked up like this forever?
"If Master is unwilling..."
Xiao Shuying hesitated for a moment, and just as Su Yunyu was beginning to anticipate his words, he changed the subject:
“I can take my master out for a trip every now and then.”
Her eyes were filled with resentment as she spoke, as if she had made a huge concession. Even Su Yunyu, who was good-tempered, was so angry that her chest heaved a few times. She grabbed the pillow with a jade base and a slag surface and started hitting Xiao Shuying with it, yelling angrily as she did so:
"Who needs your pretense? I want to get out! You can't lock me up!"
As soon as she finished speaking, Xiao Shuying grabbed the pillow from Su Yunyu's hand, threw it onto the carpet, then straddled him, restraining his flailing hands with one hand, her tone slightly dark:
"Does Master really think that if you yell at me, I'll let you go?"
"Heh," he chuckled ambiguously. Seeing that Su Yunyu was frightened, and that the person who had just been fierce but was now docile, he softened his tone and began to coax her gently.
"Unless Master also likes me, as long as Master spares me even a little bit of affection, then I will naturally obey you."
Su Yunyu raised an eyebrow, sensing that Long Aotian was indulging in wishful thinking, so she desperately pulled out one hand and shoved him hard.
"You're dreaming!"
Seeing Su Yunyu's resolute attitude, as if the word "like" was never going to come to mind, Xiao Shuying's heart clenched, and the violence that had been slightly restrained just now filled her heart again.
His eyes darkened, and the smile vanished from his lips. He coldly watched as Su Yunyu futilely pushed him away twice. Suddenly, he pinned him down, grabbed his chin, and said icily:
"Did I dream that my master thought I wouldn't dare to touch you?"
"Oh," Su Yunyu retorted defiantly, oblivious to the danger.
"Are you going to kill me? That's perfect, come on then."
"..." Xiao Shuying stared for a few seconds, then chuckled softly:
"Master is really naive."
"I like it so much..." He reached out and pulled open Su Yunyu's collar, his tone ambiguous:
"How could I possibly kill my master?"
"Even if it means killing," Xiao Shuying whispered again, her voice filled with obsession:
"I also want to take my master with me before I die, so that we can meet again even in the netherworld."
Su Yunyu had no interest in listening to what he was saying. He only felt Xiao Shuying lift his collar and even rub it downwards. He broke out in a cold sweat and finally realized what Xiao Shuying meant.
So they don't want to kill him, they want to take care of him. How can that be? Besides his life, the thing he's most determined to defend is his chastity.
Seeing that her private area was about to be violated, Su Yunyu closed her eyes, resigned to her fate:
"If this makes you happy, then do it, but after you do it, never expect me to like you again."
"..."
The offensive finally stopped. Su Yunyu had her eyes closed and couldn't see Long Aotian's expression, but she could feel an eerie silence rippling through her.
Just as he was filled with apprehension, fearing that Long Aotian would still disregard everything and force himself on him, Xiao Shuying remained silent for a moment, then spoke softly:
"If I obey, will Master show me any mercy?"
Su Yunyu opened her eyes, slightly pleased, and tried to take advantage of the situation:
"Then set me free first."
"no."
Xiao Shuying refused without question:
"Master can only stay by my side, and only I can exist by Master's side."
"..."
111, who had been silent until now, couldn't help but pop up:
[Great! Just go for it! Isn't the aura of the Chosen One appealing?]
"The halo belongs to the chosen one, what does it have to do with me?"
[No no no] 111's words were profound:
[A man who becomes the chosen one of destiny is essentially one of Heaven's own.]
"roll!"
Su Yunyu's changing expression was noticed by Xiao Shuying. His eyes narrowed slightly, and he lowered his head to ask, "What do you mean?"
Is there still someone in Master's sea of consciousness?
"!!!"
Su Yunyu's heart skipped a beat. Pretending not to understand, she asked with feigned confusion:
What are you saying?
Seeing Su Yunyu's firm denial, Xiao Shuying didn't press the matter. Her gaze darkened slightly as she gently brushed it aside, her tone calm and collected:
"It's alright. Even if I don't say it now, I'll get my master to speak up later."
Su Yunyu had just breathed a sigh of relief when Xiao Shuying scooped him up from the bed and carried him into an unknown place, causing Su Yunyu to struggle again.
"Where are you taking me? Let me go!"
But Xiao Shuying ignored him, letting him writhe in her arms. After about ten steps, the light grew increasingly dim, and the air was damp. Su Yunyu stopped struggling, clung to Xiao Shuying's shoulder, and glanced outside:
Before them lay what appeared to be a secret chamber, surrounded by rugged rock walls, but the large space in front of them was filled with shimmering water and steaming hot air—it was a hot spring.
Xiao Shuying turned her gaze and saw Su Yunyu obediently looking at her. A wave of tenderness washed over her, and she said:
“My master loves soaking in hot springs, so this was specially made for me.”
"Heh," Su Yunyu had finished sizing her up, afraid of making Xiao Shuying smug, so she dampened the mood:
"I love soaking in hot springs, but I don't like the one you created."
Xiao Shuying was not annoyed; her gaze remained unchanged, and her tone was gentle:
"If Master continues to deliberately provoke me like this, don't blame me for breaking my promise."
Thinking of her chastity, which was constantly in danger, Su Yunyu blinked and finally decided not to provoke anyone further.
Xiao Shuying placed him in the hot spring. The water wasn't deep; it only reached below the chest of an adult standing. But when Su Yunyu sat down, the water submerged his shoulders.
To be honest, this hot spring is full of spiritual energy and has a pleasant temperature. In particular, the rock walls retain moisture very well. Soaking here would turn even a desert into an oasis.
Before he could enjoy the sensation for long, he felt a touch on his lips. Su Yunyu looked down and saw Xiao Shuying wiping the color from his lips, leaving a trace of rouge on her fingertip, which she then ate.
"May I buy a few boxes of rouge tomorrow? Master's rouge looks really special."
Su Yunyu's mind suddenly wandered, and she wondered if she could poison Xiao Shuying by putting poison in the rouge.
But he soon had no time to think about it, because Xiao Shuying lowered her head and kissed his lips. Their lips touched, and the next moment, a moist sensation caressed and plundered the rouge on his lips.
"Hmm..."
Su Yunyu clenched her teeth tightly, afraid that after eating the rouge, he would eat her too. Fortunately, Xiao Shuying only lingered for a while, but then he reached out and peeled off her soaked clothes.
!!!
Startled, Su Yunyu immediately shoved him hard, causing water to splash between them. Xiao Shuying raised his hand to wipe away the stray hairs from his forehead, water droplets sliding down his straight nose and his smiling lips.
"Since Master forbids me from harming you, he should at least give me something in return."
For a moment, Su Yunyu was caught in a dilemma. On the one hand, she was afraid that if she didn't agree, Xiao Shuying would get angry and force herself on her. On the other hand, if she agreed, she was afraid that she would have nothing left but her virginity.
Just as she was hesitating, Su Yunyu suddenly had a good idea, a good idea to pour cold water on the current ambiguous flames.
So he first informed 111 (the emergency number in China), then decisively injured his own heart meridian, vomiting blood that slowly flowed down his pale face.
"I forgot to tell you, I do indeed cultivate the Path of Ruthlessness."
The original owner cultivated the Path of Ruthlessness; he wasn't lying.
As for the backlash of the Ruthless Path, since Long Aotian himself doesn't cultivate the Ruthless Path, he wouldn't understand it anyway.
Xiao Shuying's expression changed, stung by the bright red blood. A wave of fear washed over her. She quickly reached out to examine and heal his heart meridian, but found it damaged. She tried to heal it, but it wouldn't heal completely. Her expression darkened.
"What do you mean by that, Master? If you're thinking of leaving me by hurting yourself again, then forget it."
Su Yunyu deliberately had 111 fake his injury; otherwise, if he had injured his heart meridian, Long Aotian would have healed quickly, and there would have been no backlash whatsoever. Seeing this, he spoke weakly:
"Can't you tell whether it's self-harm or a backlash?"
After leaving behind a thought-provoking remark, Su Yunyu once again made a decisive decision to faint. Before she fainted, she only heard Xiao Shuying's somewhat astonished words:
"What do you mean by that? What backlash? What ruthless path?"
Seeing that Long Aotian was in a state of confusion, Su Yunyu finally fainted with satisfaction.
Very good, he has preserved his innocence.
