Wei Ruolan's eyes moved slightly when he heard Song Qingshu's words. He naturally did not want to die, not to mention that he was shouldering the mission of his ancestors. However, he could not bring himself to beg for mercy. After hesitating for a while, he could only remain silent with an ugly expression on his face.
Song Qingshu did not care and said directly, "Now you have two choices in front of you. One is to choose to be loyal to me. From now on, everything you have belongs to me, including your fiancée."
Wei Ruolan's face could not help but tremble when he heard this. He said coldly, "If you don't agree, will you die?"
"You are very smart. You deserve to be the top scholar outside of Donghua Gate." Song Qingshu's words of praise sounded particularly harsh to Wei Ruolan's ears. "The other choice is to die directly. Of course, I will also take good care of your fiancée."
Wei Ruolan said angrily, "If the world knows what you said, they will know how despicable and shameless you are!"
Song Qingshu smiled. "To deal with despicable and shameless people, we naturally use despicable and shameless methods. Alright, let's not talk so much nonsense. Make your choice."
Wei Ruolan's eyes flickered. In fact, it was not difficult for him to choose. As long as he was alive, everything was possible. He could succeed in his revenge, he could complete the mission of his ancestors … As for loyalty, hehe, would he not regret it in the future?
It was not difficult to make a choice. The difficult part was how to make the other party believe in his loyalty. Wei Ruolan did not believe that Song Qingshu would be so kind. If it was just a trap for him to jump into, he would still end up dead, and it would be an even more embarrassing death.
"What do you see in me?" Wei Ruolan was indeed a talented top scholar. He quickly thought of a way. "Although I am proud of my talent, it is obviously not enough to cover up my potential threat to you. If I were you, I would never be so unwise as to nurture a tiger. "
"What do I see in you?" Song Qingshu looked at him with a faint smile. "If I said that I like your fiancée, would you believe me?"
Hearing his words, Wei Ruolan's handsome face instantly turned red. The words "you have gone too far" crossed his mind. However, he was worried that he would lose his last chance to live, so he swallowed the words back.
"You are very smart. You know how to retreat in order to advance and dispel my wariness." Song QingShu stopped smiling and his voice became cold. The reason why he gave Wei Ruolan a chance to live was not because he had taken a fancy to her as his fiancée, but because a living Wei Ruolan was definitely more valuable than a dead one. He already had a vague outline of a plan in his mind, and he wanted to use Wei Ruolan in it.
"But you overestimate yourself. You're not qualified to be my opponent, and you can't pose any threat to me." Song QingShu glanced at him as if he was looking at an ant.
Under his gaze, Wei Ruolan felt as if Mount Tai was pressing down on him. Even breathing was very difficult. It was only when his opponent moved his gaze that he was able to gasp for breath. His whole body was already drenched in cold sweat, as if he had just climbed out of the water.
At this moment, he finally understood that his opponent's strength was beyond his reach. Even if he trained for a lifetime, he would never be able to catch up to his opponent.
"Although I can't beat you, I have long heard that the Golden Snake King has many female friends in Jianghu. It would be much easier for me to deal with them." Wei Ruolan braced himself and said. He did not want to court death, but at this moment, his mind was filled with the god-like gaze of the other party. He was clear that he was on the verge of a mental breakdown. If he could not find a reason to support his beliefs, he would forever live under his shadow and would never be able to muster the slightest bit of resistance.
He could choose to live humbly for the sake of his family's mission, but if he lost his courage and beliefs because of his opponent, then he would never be able to complete his mission.
Song Qingshu said indifferently, "You are a smart person, and smart people know how to weigh the pros and cons. You know the consequences of doing this, so unless you are confident that you can defeat me, you will never dare to lay a hand on them."
He had just used 100% of his power to perform the Soul Shifting Technique on Wei Ruolan, which was why Wei Ruolan had such a big reaction. However, although the Soul Shifting Technique was magical, its effect was greatly reduced against an expert of Wei Ruolan's level.
Against an ordinary person, with Song Qingshu's current cultivation, he could even use the Soul Shifting Technique to turn them into an obedient slave. However, as the target's martial arts became higher or their will became stronger, they would not be able to achieve this effect. At most, they would only be able to temporarily confuse the target's mind.
To deal with such an expert, one could only use the Soul Shifting Technique to leave a soul imprint on them. This would subtly influence their behavior and way of thinking, similar to the psychological suggestions of later generations.
The soul imprint that Song Qingshu left on Wei Ruolan was to create a feeling that he was far stronger than him, that he could not resist and could only choose to submit.
Of course, with Wei Ruolan's cultivation and will, this kind of imprint could not be completed in one go. Therefore, it required Song Qingshu to continuously destroy his mental defenses and continuously deepen the imprint.
Hearing Song Qingshu's words, Wei Ruolan's expression changed. Although he was unwilling to admit it, the other party had clearly seen through his mind. This feeling of being defenseless made him shudder.
At this moment, the door was suddenly pushed open from the outside, and a beautiful figure staggered in. Who else could it be but Shi Xiangyun? It turned out that she had finally recovered and was worried about her lover's injuries. She struggled to get up from the bed and dragged her weak body over to check on the situation. The Beggar Clan's disciples did not stop her, perhaps because they had received instructions or something else.
Shi Xiangyun immediately cried out in alarm when she saw her lover's pale face and the vital parts of his body being restrained by Song QingShu. It was as if Song QingShu could take his life with just a flick of his finger.
Song Qingshu smiled slightly, "Isn't it obvious? I want to take his life, it's up to him to decide."
Shi Xiangyun suddenly felt as if she had been deceived, and a line of blood rushed to the top of her head, "But you promised me that you would save him!" She had made such a huge sacrifice, but the other party actually did not acknowledge it. Although he did not really eat her, the degree of his actions was not much different from losing his innocence. Thinking of the embarrassing scenes from before, she was ashamed and angry, and her whole body could not help but tremble.
"I did promise to help you save him, and I also fulfilled my promise. Otherwise, he would have died from the cold poison attacking his heart by now," Song Qingshu replied indifferently.
"Then why do you want to take his life!" Shi Xiangyun even wondered if Song QingShu was playing some kind of word game with her to trick her.
"You should ask your sweetheart about this." Song Qingshu sneered.
"?" Shi Xiangyun looked at Wei Ruolan in confusion, but the other party pursed her lips and turned her head to the side.
"It seems that he also knows how to be embarrassed," Song Qingshu said with a face full of mockery, "Your good lover took advantage of the time when I was healing him to bite the hand that fed him. He even used the Northern Underworld Divine Technique to try and absorb my inner strength. Do you think I will let him go after this again and again?"
Shi Xiangyun almost fainted when she found out about this. She glared at her lover, angry and disappointed, "Brother Wei, how could you do such an unwise thing!" There were still some words that she couldn't say. In order to save him, she had even sacrificed her chastity. In the end, his unwise actions made all of her sacrifices meaningless.
Wei Ruolan was originally brooding over the deal between her fiancée and Song Qingshu. Now that she heard the accusation in his tone, she immediately exploded, "What I want to do is none of your business. You did such a shameful thing yourself, and you still have the face to accuse me?"
Hearing him mention this matter, Shi Xiangyun's face instantly paled. She couldn't help but turn her head and angrily glare at Song Qingshu. This was because he had clearly promised her that he wouldn't tell Wei Ruolan about this matter!
Song Qingshu coughed and said to Wei Ruolan, "Uh, what I said just now was just a lie. Nothing happened between me and Miss Shi. If you don't believe me, you can ask her yourself."
Shi Xiangyun hurriedly nodded her head, "Brother Wei, we really didn't do anything …" Originally, when she said this, she was thinking that she really didn't lose her chastity, so she seemed to be in the right. However, as she spoke, she couldn't help but think of everything that happened just now. Those scenes were no different from losing her chastity, so she unknowingly weakened her imposing manner.
Wei Ruolan turned her head to look at her fiancée. She saw that her hair was messy, and her usually fair skin was flushed. Then, she thought of how she staggered when she entered the door. She didn't know that she was exhausted by Huanhuan's True Qi, and even thought that she was a freshly broken melon that couldn't walk properly. Countless scenes that made him want to explode kept appearing in his mind.
"Do you think I'm a three-year-old child? I'll believe this kind of nonsense." Even though she knew that Wei Ruolan did it to save her and shouldn't blame her, Wei Ruolan was a man after all. This kind of thing was taboo for men, so it was inevitable that there was a sense of disgust and disgust in his tone.
Shi Xiangyun's face turned slightly pale. She had always been a proud and arrogant young lady. This time, she sacrificed so much to save him, and even humbly explained to him. Who knew that not only did he not appreciate it, but he also didn't believe her at all, which made her extremely disappointed.
However, they were still childhood sweethearts after all. Shi Xiangyun took a deep breath to calm her emotions, and finally explained again, "Whether it is or not, in the future … the truth will be revealed."
She originally wanted to say that he would naturally understand that she was still a virgin on their wedding night. However, there was a third person present at this time, and a woman's modesty prevented her from saying it clearly. Moreover, because of Wei Ruolan's attitude, with her usual temperament, even if there was no third person present, she was afraid that she wouldn't be able to put down her pride and say it clearly.
After saying that, Shi Xiangyun directly walked towards Song Qingshu, and said with a complicated expression, "Prince Song, can you be magnanimous and let him go?"
Song Qingshu smiled faintly, "Let's discuss this matter outside." After saying that, he sealed Wei Ruolan's acupuncture point, and walked out first. Shi Xiangyun hesitantly turned her head to look at her lover, and finally followed after him, clenching her teeth.
