Chapter 149 Daring Not to Have Any Other Thoughts
"Your Majesty," Wu Yan gasped for breath, "I harbored no ill will towards you, Miss. In my past life... I chose to follow Feng Wan, but later I learned that Feng Wan was the one who murdered my entire family. In my past life... I died at your hands..."
Wu Yan dared not admit that he did indeed harbor feelings for Jun Liuyue that he shouldn't have.
Even though he died at Jun Liuyue's hands in his previous life.
"In the last life, the Demon Lord was the one who stayed with Miss until the very end."
As soon as he finished speaking, Wu Yan instantly felt the oppressive aura on his body disappear and began to cough violently.
"If you dare to harbor any improper thoughts, I will kill you," Yin Ming said coldly.
"Yes, Your subordinate dares not!" Wu Yan broke out in a cold sweat. Just now... that familiar feeling was just like when he was on the verge of death in his previous life.
That feeling of fear surged up again.
When Wu Yan looked up again, Yin Ming had already disappeared.
Wu Yan gasped for breath, as if he had survived a calamity.
=====
The next morning.
When Jun Liuyue woke up, she felt a sharp pain in her back and waist, as if she had been run over by a carriage!
She suddenly opened her eyes. It seemed she had just had a dream, and it was a... erotic dream!
The intensity of Yin Ming in her dream was remarkable, and most importantly—she could even recall the details of the dream!
Aura surrounded her. Liu Yue raised her hand, her eyes widening in surprise. The next second... she froze.
Spirit Venerable Realm? She actually broke through to the Spirit Venerable Realm?
Could this sudden breakthrough be related to last night's dream?
As she recalled the details of her dream, a blush crept onto the girl's face.
Suddenly, the new bracelet on her wrist caught her attention.
In her dream, Yin Ming forcefully placed the bracelet on her wrist and said, "This is all my possessions, and I entrust them all to you for safekeeping."
"Hmm? Isn't this the bracelet from my dream?"
Jun Liuyue raised her hand to take off the bracelet, but it seemed to be firmly fastened to her wrist.
Liu Yue's eyes widened suddenly. "Last night, could it not have been a dream at all?"
She probed the bracelet with her divine sense. Inside the bracelet was a separate space, filled with all sorts of rare treasures piled up like mountains!
With a thought, she disappeared into the space, surrounded by spiritual energy.
Soon, a box caught her attention, and Liuyue walked over to it as if possessed.
Upon opening the box, a scarlet long dress came into view.
When the fingertips touched the long dress, it seemed to come alive, swirling around the girl's side.
The dress was slipped onto Liuyue's body perfectly, as if it had been tailor-made for her.
"Ling Chongjin?"
Liu Yue was shocked. This was something only the Spirit Race possessed! And this Spirit Heavy Brocade Dress—it was priceless!
In her past life, Di Qingluan racked her brains to obtain the Spirit Heavy Brocade woven by the Spirit Clan.
"So everything last night wasn't a dream?"
Liu Yue raised her hand to touch her lips, feeling completely overwhelmed! She thought it was a dream... which was why she couldn't control herself.
But now, tell her it wasn't a dream?
"Never mind, I didn't really lose out."
Although she said that, Liu Yue still felt as if a million alpacas were galloping over her head.
=====
The Gu Diao was severely injured and only managed to recover somewhat after devouring several beast souls in the dark dungeon, but it was still only at the level of a Heavenly Rank magical beast!
Feng Wan was quite angry.
"You bitch!" Feng Wan angrily swept everything off the table, not only causing the Gu Diao to be seriously injured.
Now, that woman is rising to fame on the mainland!
No, she would never allow anyone to be better than her! She is the number one genius on the continent!
"Princess, Princess."
Outside the hall, the guards brought in the dying Gui Yan, who collapsed on the ground like a lump of mud, barely clinging to life.
"Your subordinate has found Lord Guiyan, but his condition is very bad."
When the guards found Gui Yan, he was already on the verge of death. If it weren't for the pills that kept him alive, he would probably be dead!
"Go down."
Feng Wan waved her hand, and the guards acknowledged the order and withdrew.
In the empty hall, only Feng Wan and Gui Yan remained. Gui Yan, panting heavily, struggled to get up and bow to Feng Wan.
"Your Highness, it's your subordinate..."
"You are indeed incompetent."
Feng Wan walked up to Gui Yan and looked down at him, saying, "All these years of my training have been for nothing, and you are so useless."
"Please, Your Highness, give me another chance." Wu Yan stretched out his bloodied, thin hand; his ring finger had been severed, revealing a clean, sharp cut.
Before he could even touch Feng Wan's skirt, Feng Wan stepped back, saying, "Don't touch this princess with your filthy hands."
"Your Highness, I know I was wrong." Gui Yan used his last bit of strength to pull his hand back. "Please give me another chance, Your Highness. I will definitely kill that woman and avenge Your Highness."
"You? She has now formed a contract with the Vermilion Bird, and what about you? Your dantian has been destroyed, and you are now a cripple. You have no value to me whatsoever." Feng Wan sneered, "Instead of wasting resources healing you, I'd rather find a few more cultivators with good aptitude."
"Your Highness, it is my fault that I am useless and unable to share your burdens."
Even at this point, Guiyan still believed himself to be useless.
His Highness treated him so well, yet he was completely useless to him.
"Your Highness, why not let me fend for myself out there..." Gui Yan said, filled with remorse.
"No, this princess must see you die with my own eyes."
Gui Yan was about to say something when Feng Wan interrupted him: "You know too many of my secrets. Only the dead can keep secrets."
"Well...so be it." A bitter feeling welled up in Gui Yan's heart. He had served His Highness for five years, but—His Highness was still so wary of her.
"Since you're going to die anyway, I don't mind telling you that your brother and parents all died at my hands," Feng Wan said calmly. "What you did to the Wu family is exactly what I did to the Zhao family."
A single, casual remark shattered all of Guiyan's illusions.
He thought, "His Highness saved me back then."
He has served His Highness for so many years, and this can be considered as repaying his debt of gratitude.
"Why, why did you tell me—!" Gui Yan roared like a trapped beast, his mind filled with the tragic scene of the Wu family, heads scattered on the ground, blood everywhere.
Before he was called Gui Yan, he was the second son of the Zhao family. He was exceptionally talented and was just one step away from entering the Wentian Academy. However, an unexpected event occurred, and his entire family was wiped out. When he was at his wit's end, Feng Wan appeared.
She saved him.
From then on, he regarded Feng Wan as his salvation, a white moonlight he wanted to touch but dared not touch.
But now—tell him that it's all fake.
"Hahaha, hahaha."
Gui Yan collapsed to the ground, staring up at the ceiling, "Wrong, all wrong..."
"Why, why are you telling me now? Why don't you just kill me..."
puff!
Gui Yan could no longer hold back. He was so angry that he stared at the ceiling with a pained expression and bloodshot pupils.
It's like killing someone by breaking their spirit! He was so angry that he actually died.
"Men, drag his body away."
Feng Wan took a few steps back and fanned herself with her hand, "What bad luck!"
Soon, Guiyan's corpse, along with the traces he left behind, was cleaned up.
"I ordered you to investigate, have you found anything?"
Feng Wan spoke.
