276 Ling Hua’s Enlightenment, and the Bell of the Charmed Slave
Liu Yuan was trying to use his astral body to ‘look’ outside. He could clearly see Han Tianyi’s furious attempt to break in, his disheartened departure, and Su Lanfeng’s arrival. He only opened his eyes when Su Lanfeng reported to him respectfully.
“It’s a little like an eagle’s eye.” Liu Yuan touched his chin. Because of Evil Heart Sword’s special trait, his current deified soul cultivation was far beyond his own strength. Therefore, Han Tianyi’s shocked and obviously self-imagined reaction was not an exaggeration.
Because Shangyang was not connected to the Fengdu Realm, it lacked knowledge of the soul and spirit, so most people’s cultivation progress on the path of the divine soul was very slow.
However, with Evil Heart in his hands, he did not have such a worry.
Liu Yuan turned around and entered the house. He first pulled out Netherworld, who was addicted to playing cards.
As soon as he entered the room, he felt that the atmosphere in the room was not right, but this situation was too common in the past half a month. He knew that the best solution was to ignore it. Once he got involved, things would go out of control.
Therefore, Liu Yuan pretended not to notice anything and tried to pull away Netherworld, who was probably angry at Ling Hua.
But this time, he was wrong.
This matter had already implicated him even before he had gotten involved.
Ling Hua suddenly looked at Liu Yuan and muttered, “Dao begets one, one begets two, two begets three, three begets all things… Since there are fourteen, how can there not be a hundred and fourteen?”
Liu Yuan stopped in his tracks. “…?!”
I-is this enlightenment? What did he comprehend? Why did he feel a chill on his back…
Ling Hua looked at his dumbfounded expression and suddenly revealed a gentle and helpless smile. She shook her head and said, “I’m fine.”
“Oh…” Liu Yuan stiffly turned around and walked out. After a while, he suddenly froze.
He didn’t ask if you were okay.
Liu Yuan’s heart suddenly felt cold, but then he thought that he had never hidden the fact that he had many women and was about to have more women from Ling Hua. Moreover, Ling Hua’s favorable impression points had been locked, so there should be no problem.
While she was thinking, Netherworld said in a muffled voice. She had just left the Mahjong table unwillingly and put on her mask. She was in a very bad mood at the moment.”What are you up to this time? I’m telling you, don’t waste your energy. No matter what you do, I will never yield. If that’s all you can do, it’s a pity that it’s useless even if you tie me up for the rest of your life.”
Liu Yuan came back to his senses and sized her up subtly. Then, he asked curiously, “Then, the person who grabbed my clothes and begged for mercy and even shed tears earlier… Was she Mei Sheng?”
“Who’s grabbing your clothes and begging for mercy?!” Netherworld was enraged. “Who’s crying?!”
“You’re going back on your word?” Liu Yuan took out a photostone from his sleeve and tossed it up and down. He looked at her and said, “I’ve recorded everything very very clearly here. Do you want me to show it to you in front of Su Lanfeng later? Don’t worry, you’re the only one who can see it.”
Netherworld’s pupils contracted, and her chest heaved up and down. She stared at the photostone, as if trying to judge if he had the time to record the video at that time. However, after thinking about it for a long time, she could only remember the humiliation. But if it was really… In front of her subordinates… How could the Master of Bi Luo Mansion do such a thing?
“Despicable! Shameless! Cheap!”
Liu Yuan did not care about the Mansion Master’s scolding at all. He had gotten used to it during the past half a month. He continued to tease, “Mansion Master, who do you think this person is?”
Netherworld was silent. She dodged his gaze behind the mask and snorted coldly, “Naturally it’s Mei Sheng, that spineless one. What else do you think?”
(Mei Sheng: “??? “)
Liu Yuan was also shocked by the Mansion Master’s self-deception and thought to himself, ‘Even Mei Sheng would probably not have such a big reaction. She would probably have a very curious and bold attitude. She definitely wouldn’t like it is so ‘tragic’.’
The Mansion Master was very satisfied with his quick-witted answer. She wondered why she had not thought of this before. What did the embarrassment of Mei Sheng have to do with her, Netherworld? Haha, this way, this shameless thief, lowly pig no longer has any basis to mock her. This is great! Excellent!
Liu Yuan’s gaze was complicated. He felt that the majestic Mansion Master was showing signs of becoming like Chuichui. However, Chuichui was already his cat, and the Mansion Master was only the ‘appetizer’.
He was too lazy to argue with the Mansion Master, who was already slipping in a dangerous direction without knowing it. He took out the rope on Netherworld’s body and said, “The Mansion Master is so unyielding. I really didn’t expect this.”
“You’re finally at your wit’s end?” Netherworld sneered. “All you do is repeat the same…”
Her gaze fell on Liu Yuan’s hand and she was stunned.
“W-What’s this?”
“A bell.” Liu Yuan shook the small object in his hand, and the crisp sound was particularly pleasant to hear.
Netherworld glared at him. “Of course, I know this is a bell. What I’m asking is, what are you planning to do this time?”
Liu Yuan naturally stretched out his hand and smiled. “I’m putting it on for you.”
Netherworld’s eyes widened as she watched Liu Yuan walk over. The bell in Liu Yuan’s hand glowed with a cold metallic light, and there was a red ribbon on the top of the bell. Under Liu Yuan’s deliberate display, the words ‘charmed slave’ were revealed. The Mansion Master’s eyes turned red from the humiliation and she cursed, “You, how dare you treat me like this? If I regain my freedom one day, I will definitely castrate you and feed you to the dogs. I will let you have a taste of the humiliation I have suffered!”
“It seems like I should be extra careful. I can’t let the Mansion Master escape.” Liu Yuan smiled at first, then he retracted his smile and looked at her expression carefully, saying, “Such a big reaction… It seems that my guess was right, Mei Sheng is your real name, but after you inherited the name Netherworld, you changed to show your distinction.”
Netherworld’s breathing stopped and she stopped cursing. She suddenly shut her mouth.
Liu Yuan reached out and touched her face, brushing past the corner of her eye. His fingertips seemed to have brushed away a warm tear as he said in a low voice, “Mei Sheng, you’ve been with them all day and night for the past half a month, and I’ve treated you almost the same. You wouldn’t subconsciously think that you’re the same as them, right? Otherwise, why would you suddenly remember your identity as a ‘slave’ and cry? Don’t forget, Mansion Master, you almost killed me. I won’t show you any pity, and I’ll only do things that will make you angry and hurt.”
“Who’s crying? Don’t think too highly of yourself!” Netherworld gritted her teeth. “Also, don’t call me Mei Sheng, I’m not that idiot.”
Liu Yuan hung the bell on the rope around Netherworld’s neck and looked at it with satisfaction. He said, “That’s good. I hope that Mansion Mead can maintain your dignity and not let the bell ring in front of your subordinates.”
The ‘unorthodox methods’ that he had learned from the young ladies of the City of Ten Thousand Swords, which had been combined with interrogation techniques, had finally been put to use. Unfortunately, the Lord Mansion Master had become a test subject.
