Jiang Liechen seemed to have suddenly awakened from his previous state. "What? When did you start to care about me? Haven't you been cursing me a hundred times every day? If so, wouldn't that be exactly what you want? " Shangguan Yaohua choked on his anger. "Even if I want you to die, I'll have to rely on my own efforts and real martial arts to kill you. I'm not asking you to seek your own death!"
Jiang Liechen sighed softly. "It seems like you're very similar to my adopted son. Xuan Shuang once told me the same thing. She said that in this world, either I am invincible, or she is the only one qualified to kill me. "
Shangguan Yaohua sneered. "Is that so? Then I'll have to compete with him … "As soon as he finished speaking, he realized something was wrong. His face reddened." What's the big deal about trying to take advantage of others verbally? Then tell me, you can go crazy on your own. What does this have to do with her … with Ah Xue? "
Jiang Liechen said, "That's an equivalent reward. You've benefited from it, so naturally you have to repay it. Therefore, when the time comes, you'll have to bring a few sacrifices and push them into the lava. You'll refine their three souls and seven spirits to reconstruct my body. At the same time, you'll use their strong resentment before they die to strengthen the body's demonic nature. For this kind of sacrifice, your enemy will be the first choice. At that time, her hatred for you, coupled with her inherent resentment, will be able to gather and integrate the elemental spiritual energy to the greatest extent. Her unwillingness will also merge with your obsession to create the most perfect soul … There's nothing in the world more satisfying than sacrificing one's enemy. Watching them toss and turn under your feet and wail in agony, at your mercy, unable to break free from their predestined fate. Watching you reach the peak, not only will they be powerless to stop you, but they'll also contribute to your ascension. What I like most is to feel the deep despair everyone feels before they die. Hasn't Nangong Xue always been full of confidence? Hasn't she always been invincible? Hasn't she always dreamed of becoming a saint and delivering salvation to the world? Alright, I'm in the sea of bitterness. Let her blood, body, and soul redeem me first! "
Shangguan Yaohua was so angry that he couldn't control himself. He grabbed his collar and said angrily, "Listen carefully. I don't care if you want to die, but I have no interest in Li Yijie. But if you dare to hurt Ah Xue, I will kill you right now! "
A trace of fatigue flashed in Jiang Liechen's eyes. Although he wholeheartedly pursued the path of becoming a devil, he had seen the joys and sorrows of the human world along the way. He only felt that the endless slaughter could no longer bring him enjoyment like it did in the beginning. Most of the time, he would rather be an ordinary king and quietly receive the worship of others. As for conquering the world of living beings, it was already extremely tiring. Just the Nine Prefectures alone had already exhausted half of his life's effort.
However, since he had already walked step by step to this day, he could no longer turn back. The things that could support him all these years had long since collapsed under the continuous slaughter and conquest. From the beginning to the end, this battle could only be his own battle. He glanced at Shangguan Yaohua and said with a bitter smile, "Since you are so worried about her, why do you still want to marry Miss Ping? Don't tell me it's to fulfill Li Yijie's wish? "
Shangguan Yaohua was embarrassed when he heard this. He flung off his sleeve and said, "It's my parents' orders … What does it have to do with you who I marry? Don't you think you are meddling too much in other people's business? "Jiang Liechen didn't answer and asked," Do you still want her? "
Shangguan Yaohua was stunned. This sentence seemed to touch on a secret that he didn't dare to think too deeply about. His heart thumped wildly. When people are too excited or in disbelief, they often choose to play dumb so that others can confirm their thoughts. He blurted out, "What?" Jiang Liechen saw that he had lost control of himself and understood seventy to eighty percent of the situation. He smiled faintly and said, "Nangong Xue, do you still want her?"
Shangguan Yaohua was flustered and said involuntarily, "You … Don't act recklessly! Why should I tell you whether I want her or not? " Jiang Liechen said, "If I could help you and make everything go according to your wishes, would you still be willing to tell me?"
Shangguan Yaohua avoided his eyes and said, "But … but I will never steal someone's love. How can I steal my brother's wife?" Although he said this, he couldn't hide the hope in his eyes. Jiang Liechen pressed further and said, "But Li Yijie isn't your brother. The two of them haven't bowed to the Heaven and Earth. Don't you know that? Why do you still want to hide from your true feelings? "
Shangguan Yaohua raised his hand and knocked on the top of his head a few times. He said, "I … I don't understand. More importantly, I found out … You know, once you enter a noble family, it's as deep as the ocean. Ruoyu is such a happy and energetic girl. How can I let her enter the family and live in the darkness of power struggles? To be honest, I really … don't hate her. I just want to drive her away. From the beginning to the end, I've always been alone. I only care about my own life and death. I don't need to take on all those messy responsibilities … But now, by a freak combination of factors, we are married. I can only accept my fate … I don't love her. The only girl I love will always be Xiangxiang. As for Ah Xue, she's just like her in some aspects. Subconsciously, I've treated her as a substitute for Xiangxiang. It's not fair to her, I … "
At this time, he seemed to suddenly sober up. He laughed and said, "I don't know why I said so much to you. It's probably because I've kept these words in my heart for too long. What about you? Presumably, you don't really want to cooperate with Noble Consort Yun, do you? With your strength, you don't need to rely on her to become the world's number one. "
Jiang Liechen said, "Who said I'm relying on her? Just like she said, we're just using each other to get what we need. " Shangguan Yaohua said, "I don't understand. What is it that you can't get? Why do you have to endure humiliation and depend on others? Don't tell me — are you talking about Xuan Shuang? "
Jiang Liechen didn't respond. Pain flitted across his face. Shangguan Yaohua sighed and said, "What's Shen Shiyun? She's just an arrow at the end of its flight. Now, she's no longer the person who destroyed my Chen family, who could call the wind and summon the rain, who could cover the sky with one hand. Although the power she created isn't small, it's all a castle in the air. It's superficial, but it's useless. As soon as she launches a coup d 'état, it can be considered as officially digging her own grave. Humph, indeed the higher you climb, the harder you fall. I just want to watch her excitedly jump down the road to death, why should I remind her? "
Jiang Liechen laughed and said, "If that's the case, why do you still want to rely on her?" Shangguan Yaohua said, "Heaven's secret must not be divulged. However, the same thing can often give rise to two diametrically opposed levels. Smart people know how to find an opportunity, to temporarily rely on power in the midst of chaos, to obtain a chance of survival, and then turn other people's dead end into their own way out. If this move can be executed beautifully, not only it can bring the dead back to life, it can also achieve meteoric success from now on … I'm not being forced by that old thing! "
"I understand," Jiang Liechen said, "You want to take this opportunity to drag Prince Fu into the water as well, so that you can break away from his oppression toward you, and then you can overturn the situation?" "Nonsense!" Shangguan Yaohua said, "You are talking nonsense! You are talking nonsense, I didn't say anything. "After pausing for a moment, he lowered his voice and said," The walls have ears, don't you understand? "
While the two of them were talking, a creaking sound was indeed heard from the door. Shangguan Yaohua was furious. "Who is it?" He said, "Get out of here! Didn't I tell you earlier that without my permission, nobody is allowed to come in? " The shadow that slipped in had obviously given him a fright; unexpectedly it curled up in the shadows and did not dare to move forward. Shangguan Yaohua angrily said, "You have the guts to eavesdrop, but don't have the guts to take responsibility? Come out! "
That shadow hung its head and hesitated for half a day in the shadows of the porch before it gathered its courage and walked in. Shangguan Yaohua originally wanted to immediately order the people to drag it out and beat it to death, but he did not know what kind of relationship this person had with the Snow Song Palace's spy, so he wanted to take this opportunity to interrogate him as well. Unexpectedly, when that person walked in front of her and took a closer look, he was greatly surprised. He said, "You … Little Xuan? Why are you here? "
Cheng Jiaxuan smiled sadly and said softly, "Brother Yao Hua, long time no see." He took out a paper bag wrapped in layers of yellow cloth from his bosom and held it flat in his hand. He carefully walked in front of Jiang Liechen and raised his head to look at him. The rims of his eyes reddened as he said softly, "I can still see you. This … is really good."
Jiang Liechen said impatiently, "So it's you? You've dragged it out for a year and still haven't died completely. As expected, the life of a slut is tough. What do you want to say? " Cheng Jiaxuan bit his lip and ignored his sarcastic remarks. He gathered his courage and handed the cloth bag to him. He said the words that had been lingering in his heart the entire time, "I heard that a few days ago you massacred Mount Hua and beat the righteous sects to the point that they were unable to retaliate. It was truly awe-inspiring. But you … you weren't injured, were you? I … I was really worried about you, so I specially prepared some precious medicine. Oh, would you please accept it? "
Jiang Liechen sneered as if crushing this little girl like an ant was an extremely enjoyable thing to do. He said, "That group of mediocre people, which one of them can hurt me? Your fake kindness should be given to Li Yijie. Take it away from me! "He raised his hand and swept it across. Cheng Jiaxuan was momentarily unable to hold it and the cloth bag nearly fell to the ground.
Shangguan Yaohua's eyes moved and he smoothly took the cloth bag. He deliberately said to Jiang Liechen, "In any case, this is still her kindness. Since you don't want it, you might as well give it to me. It just so happens that my humble wife hasn't been feeling well recently. Drink a few bowls of All Nourishing Soup and I'm sure she'll recover faster. "
Cheng Jiaxuan was grateful that he was willing to help him out of his predicament. He was also curious about the new way he addressed him and muttered to himself, "My humble wife … my humble wife? You're already married? How come I don't see sister-in-law? "
Shangguan Yaohua's heart began to heat up. He couldn't help but feel annoyed by her repeated questions. He said, "My wife, what does that have to do with you? You're trying to worm your way into being friends with someone who doesn't know how close you are. No wonder she hates you. "A few drops of tears fell from Cheng Jiaxuan's eyes, but he found it difficult to express his feelings.
Jiang Liechen coldly said, "Brother Shangguan, it's best if you settle the guest in your residence as soon as possible. Don't let me feel annoyed when I see her." Cheng Jiaxuan's impulsive heart was almost forced out. He called out, "I know I've caused you a lot of trouble, but please give me a chance. Let me talk to you one more time! Perhaps from now on, I won't bother you anymore. "Her expression was extremely sincere at this moment, and her eyes were still glistening with undried tears. Jiang Liechen took it as a joke and casually said, "Okay, go ahead."
Cheng Jiaxuan's eyelashes were filled with tears. His lips moved, but he couldn't say a single word. He slowly walked closer until he was face to face with her. His eyes were still filled with deep infatuation, as if it would be good to see him one more time. In a soft and gentle voice he said, "I've loved you from the first time we met until today. It has never changed. You … will you love me the same way? "
Jiang Liechen was startled. Although Cheng Jiaxuan had always pestered him, he had never been so straightforward. He frowned and said, "What …?" Before he could react, Cheng Jiaxuan suddenly leaned forward and blocked his lips with two pink petals, preventing him from replying.
Shangguan Yaohua, who was watching from the side, was also shocked. He was afraid that even Ping Ruoyu, who had seduced him and Li Yijie in the past, would not dare to be as presumptuous as she was. Even the girls in the brothel would not dare to be as presumptuous as her. At this moment, he felt even more embarrassed than if he had done something shameful.
