…
After pondering for a long time, umbrella girl finally opened her mouth.
After thoroughly understanding the theory behind Yin Crane Web, he had learned how to manipulate wandering souls and even use his own strength.
"I'll let you go when the time is right. As for the thing in your body, I won't dispel it for you. As long as you don't say anything about me and don't tell your sister, it won't act up. " Lu Sheng said casually, "My condition for letting you go is that I need you to stay by Scarlet District Mistress' side and help me cover up the destruction of Scarlet District."
Umbrella girl was momentarily stunned, then overjoyed. She gripped the red umbrella in her hand tightly.
"That person?" Lu Sheng raised an eyebrow. His newly grown eyebrows were very faint, but they still gave him a hint of fierceness.
"So, if you're truly concerned about your sister, you should help me cover up this matter. I can return the thing to you, "Lu Sheng added," As long as you help me cover it up, it'll be good for all of us. Shangyang Family may be strong, but I only have one life. It's not worth it to fight you head-on. "
Umbrella girl began to think. She had already tried many methods, but none of them could expel the thing in her body.
As for sparing the umbrella girl, perhaps even the umbrella girl herself didn't believe that she had truly been spared.
Umbrella girl could not help but nod slowly.
"Mm. That's good, "Ye Moling turned around. "Shangyang Jiuli is the second genius of Shangyang Family. She's in seclusion now, probably trying to break through to Seven-Vein and step into the realm of Snake. Once such a genius steps into the realm of Snake, Shangyang Family will have another candidate for Family Head. "
"Think about it. We don't have any great enmity with Scarlet District. There's no need for us to fight to the death with your District Mistress," Lu Sheng explained. "It's better to squash enmity than keep it alive. It's just the destruction of some wandering souls and houses. Can't we just give you another one later? I believe you don't want your sister District Mistress to go against my Shangyang Family, do you? "
"Scarlet District Mistress is back?" A sliver of unease appeared on Lu Sheng's face. After all, he was a descendant of Zhen Family's forces. Zhen Family and Scarlet District were enemies. If Scarlet District Mistress were to fly into a rage and vent her anger on Crimson Whale Sect, he would be in grave danger.
As the Deputy Workshop Master, she was naturally more attuned to the precision of her operations. But he still couldn't get rid of that thing.
He circled around the umbrella girl a few times, as if he was scrutinizing her and considering something.
Lu Sheng regained his composure and nodded slightly.
Just as she was directing the construction, she suddenly turned around and stared at a slender figure walking over from afar.
If she went back, she would expose the truth. The best-case scenario was that Boss Sis would kill Lu Sheng in a fit of rage, and then be hunted down by the Shangyang Family, unable to return home. After all, an expert at the three-vein level or above would be considered an elite no matter which clan they belonged to. Killing an expert from an aristocratic family that didn't have many people to begin with was equivalent to declaring war. Just for the sake of creating a role model and maintaining their authority, the Shangyang Family would definitely not let Big Sister go.
"I'll leave first."
Lu Sheng didn't even know who Huang Qiuyuan was. He was only familiar with a few gangs in Mountain-Edge City. Judging from the way they were dressed, they didn't seem to be from Mountain Edge.
Umbrella girl was so frightened by him that she dared not move a muscle.
These days, Lu Sheng had also thoroughly unearthed the abilities of Yin Crane Web.
"Manor Lord Ye's personal visit also gave me a fright," Xiao Hongye said helplessly. "The destruction of that fire was enough to send shivers down my spine. Now that that one has returned and the Manor Lord is here, the Northern Lands have finally calmed down. Is it going to fall into chaos again? "
Ghosts had the same level of control over their bodies as Noblemen. They had extremely precise control over their own bodies.
"Please, Sect Master, please," The few of them nodded hurriedly.
Before knowing for sure if Big Sister could deal with this net thing, she could not, and dared not, reveal this matter.
Scarlet District Mistress crossed her arms in front of her chest and leaned against the broken wall. She watched as large pieces of bricks and tiles floated up and piled up to form a new wall.
The sky was gloomy, but as the figure approached, Scarlet District Mistress could not help but reveal a look of tenderness on her face.
"I … will not … betray Big Sister … not even if I die," umbrella girl's eyes shone with determination.
Umbrella girl hesitated. She did not know what Lu Sheng meant by these words, but judging from his previous actions, he did not seem like someone who would let her off easily.
"Yes, we're all here to see Squire Xiao," the few of them replied respectfully. Crimson Whale Sect was renowned in the Northern Lands and was known as the Number One Sect in the Northern Lands. Although they had considerable influence in their own territories, they were still far from being comparable to Crimson Whale Sect. They had no choice but to treat them with respect.
"Really …?"
"Brother Lu, please forgive me. The Manor Lord's orders are of great importance …" Xiao Hongye smiled bitterly and cupped his fists at Lu Sheng.
"No buts …" Lu Sheng circled behind her, his lips curling into a smile. "As long as you don't do anything to harm me, I won't activate the thing in your body. Isn't it great that we can live together peacefully? "
These days, she could already feel that the strange seed was becoming more and more integrated with her body. If she wanted to extract that thing now, she would have to extract ninety percent of her soul as well. The final outcome would be her soul disintegrating.
…
The effects of Yin Crane Web were stronger than he had imagined. After Aquarius Qi had taken root, that kind of control could often be perfected.
Therefore, it was not normal for him to remain unmoved at such a time.
Even if he exposed Lu Sheng for destroying Scarlet District and killing Ashoka Manor's Officiator, he would at most be punished. That was all. After all, be it Scarlet District or Ashoka Manor, they were far inferior to one of the Nine Great Families of the Central Plains.
Upon returning to the Crimson Whale, Lu Sheng immediately went into seclusion. At the same time, he brought umbrella girl along.
Umbrella girl lifted her head and looked at Lu Sheng.
Controlling Yin souls, assimilating them, and turning them into a part of his own Aquarius Qi. Umbrella girl and the few ghosts who were used as test subjects were living examples.
"What are you saying, Brother Xiao? As a junior, it's only natural for Senior to come and pay a visit to Mountain-Edge City," Lu Sheng said with a fake smile. He and Xiao Hongye were collaborators to begin with. There was no friendship to speak of. Naturally, there was no need for him to flatter him.
"Isn't it that District Mistress of Scarlet District?" Xiao Hongye mentioned casually. "She's a ruthless killer. When she returned to find her home ransacked, she was so enraged that she arrested many people in one go. Even my Manor Lord had to help investigate. What troubled times."
"Your sister is in danger, and I'm in danger now. Your sister's enemy is the enemy I've been searching for. So I'm willing to let you go. Of course, there are conditions, "Lu Sheng smiled, deliberately putting on a facade.
This kind of feeling, it was like programming.
"I … promise you …"
Lu Sheng walked out of the door and saw Xiao Hongye waiting for him.
"Not now, of course," Lu Sheng added. He was stalling for time, waiting for his Yin and Yang fusion to complete the qualitative transformation.
"Think about it. You're doing this for your sister's own good. If she kills me because of you, you can easily calculate the status of an expert like me in the family. That way, you'll be the sworn enemy of our Shangyang Family. Do you think your sister alone can stand against the might of one of the Nine Great Families of the Central Plains? "Lu Sheng fully pulled out the tiger's skin.
Umbrella girl knew many of his secrets, such as killing Ashoka Manor's Officiator and destroying Scarlet District. Therefore, she could not be let off so easily.
Xiao Hongye stood at the door and watched him leave. Then, he returned to the main hall. At this moment, the few middle-aged men who had entered retreated with cold sweat on their foreheads. They bowed to him and left quickly.
"Do you want to go back?" Lu Sheng smiled at her.
"I understand what you mean," Ye Moling smiled. "Just wait and see."
Huang Qiuyuan?
"What conditions?" In her excitement and surprise, umbrella girl did not stutter this time.
Xiao Hongye and the rest left before slowly entering the main hall.
This kind of manipulation was effective even on the umbrella girl. This was also the premise of his next plan.
"Your sister's back …"
"I won't harm your sister. Nor do I have the ability," Lu Sheng smiled. "I just want to protect myself. I want to live a peaceful and peaceful life. That's all. You won't deny me even this small request, will you? "
"There's no need for me to lie to you," Lu Sheng said calmly.
"You're also invited by Squire Xiao?" Lu Sheng asked casually.
"But I … how should I put it …" umbrella girl was already convinced. She had to admit that what Lu Sheng said made sense.
Umbrella girl fell silent.
In his previous life, he was an expert at programming game modders. Ever since he returned, he had been researching this ability.
"Manor Lord," he looked at the figure who had stood up and was facing away from him. "Shangyang Family has already sent word about Scarlet District Mistress's return."
Receiving a definite answer, Lu Sheng frowned slightly and nodded.
In broad daylight, she was directing the newly captured wandering souls to build the new Scarlet District headquarters.
"But …"
"That's more like it," Lu Sheng smiled in satisfaction. If umbrella girl went back on her word, he could kill her at the first opportunity.
Umbrella girl was also trembling with joy. But when she thought of Lu Sheng's promise, a shadow flashed across her heart.
In the ruins of Scarlet District.
Before long, Lu Sheng suddenly spoke.
If the Noble Families were said to obtain power from themselves, then the ghosts were said to strengthen themselves by devouring fear and blood essences.
"You really … agree … to let me go?"
Her sister was very, very strong, so strong that she could not control it completely. She did not usually make a move, but once she did, even she could not control the strength of her strength. Therefore, in terms of precise control, she was more than a notch above her sister.
Umbrella girl knew that her sister could not either. Because in terms of precise control, even she could not compare.
"Sect Master, you'd better inform Miss Jiuli as soon as possible," Xiao Hongye said in a low voice.
She did not want to die, but neither did she want to betray her sister.
And since Lu Sheng had said so, he naturally had his own plans.
Poor umbrella girl. Little did she know that in the eyes of Shangyang Family, Lu Sheng was just an ordinary gang leader. How could he have any status or importance?
"Many thanks for the information, Brother Xiao. Farewell," he left hurriedly and boarded the carriage with Xu Chui. Soon, they disappeared into the night.
Time trickled by.
"Yingying, it's good that you're alright …" She approached quickly and hugged umbrella girl without moving.
