Chapter 351: Master, I Have a Plan!

Countless blue-violet eyes gathered.

Soon, the entire space was filled with blue-violet eyes.

The people on the street screamed in panic and hurried to escape.

Although they didn’t quite understand what was happening, the sudden appearance of so many demonic eyes surely signaled something terrifying; staying would only bring trouble.

In the blink of an eye, only Bai Qiulan and Yue Hongling remained on the street.

Bai Qiulan didn’t even dare to look up; she kept her head down, trembling.

But at this moment, Yue Hongling raised her head, glanced around, and then lowered it again with a slight smirk.

Suddenly, an eye appeared on Bai Qiulan’s chest, looking up at her.

Bai Qiulan let out a piercing scream.

A powerful Chaos Yin Power surged from her, sweeping through the surroundings.

Houses in the city were shattered, and countless eyes were frozen into ice shards, destroyed in the upheaval of energy.

The entire world fell silent.

The eyes disappeared.

However, Bai Qiulan collapsed onto the ground.

Her delicate face was now filled with intense fear.

She trembled uncontrollably, as if a fearsome serpent were consuming her.

Lu Ye found himself.

He was using a method so exhausting it could wear anyone out, searching for himself inch by inch; one could imagine how serious his desire to kill himself was at that moment.

He wanted to kill himself!

He was dead set on it!

Bai Qiulan knew Lu Ye; once he was resolved to kill someone, even if it meant going to the ends of the earth, that person would not escape.

So, she was doomed!

She was definitely doomed, absolutely doomed!

No one could save her!

Bai Qiulan’s heart raced, to the point of feeling suffocated.

Lu Ye’s oppressive aura was too strong. Bai Qiulan was naturally someone who feared death; otherwise, she wouldn’t be clinging to Yue Hongling so desperately, not even thinking of killing her despite revealing her hypocritical facade.

So she was truly scared of dying, and it was evident that death was extremely close.

In this situation, it was impossible to tell she had once been a Great Emperor.

However, judging by the strong beings within the Darkness Origin, it was clear that even the Great Emperor feared death.

Who among the living is not afraid of death?

Some find something more important than life, like protecting their home and country, fulfilling promises, dying for the Dao, dying for beauty, or living without regrets; for them, death is no longer so terrifying.

It was clear that Bai Qiulan had nothing more important than death, so she genuinely feared it.

“Master, don’t be afraid,”

Yue Hongling squatted beside Bai Qiulan, speaking softly.

Bai Qiulan didn’t respond, trembling unabated.

“Perhaps there’s a way to stop Senior Brother,” Yue Hongling said.

Hearing this, Bai Qiulan looked up at Yue Hongling with tear-filled eyes.

She honestly didn’t know what else could stop Lu Ye.

“Both Senior Brother and I are your disciples; whether he admits it or not, his first cultivation and the techniques he practices were indeed taught by you!”

Bai Qiulan’s eyes dimmed. What good would that do? Did she really think Lu Ye maintained some kind of teacher-student bond?

Impossible. Lu Ye had long since discarded that connection.

“Since there’s no turning back, I have a strategy now; can you hear me out?”

“We could ask the Darkness Origin for help, projecting your and my images throughout the heavens, making it clear to all cultivators in the Nine Heavens that you and Senior Brother are teacher and student, an unerasable bond!”

“In the cultivation world, students killing their teachers is absolutely unacceptable in the eyes of others.”

“If I have to die, then it might as well be a grand spectacle, let the world see as Senior Brother kills his teacher, and let him be cursed through the ages!”

“Only then can we find a glimmer of hope in this dire situation!”

“Master, do you think this is feasible?”

“Can my Senior Brother endure the scorn of the entire Nine Heavens?”

Uhmmm…

To be honest, Lu Ye could absolutely endure it; what was the scorn of the Nine Heavens worth? If the entire Nine Heavens turned against him, he could wipe them all out.

But Yue Hongling was speaking to Bai Qiulan now.

Who was Bai Qiulan?

Even if others secretly said she was having an affair with her disciple, she couldn’t bear it—she would even be willing to use the Taiyin Bone Bug to ruin Lu Ye’s path.

The irony was that the Chaos Yin Power inside Lu Ye existed precisely because he had saved her.

As a person who cared deeply about her image and how others perceived her,

Yue Hongling’s suggestion was like hitting the nail on the head for Bai Qiulan.

Yes!

Yes, yes, yes!

Lu Ye would become a Great Emperor, a Celestial Lord, or even a Saint!

When he was weak, people’s disdain would fade, but once he grew strong, the crime of killing his teacher would forever stain him.

The stronger Lu Ye became, the more impossible it would be to cleanse that stain; it would follow him always, for life!

Provided enough people knew!

Although the eyes had vanished, one could imagine Lu Ye was rushing over quickly.

When he arrived, he wouldn’t let a single word come out of his mouth.

So she had to act first and hold him back.

Bai Qiulan felt like she had found a flicker of hope, her drive returning.

“Darkness Origin, can you project our images throughout the heavens?” Bai Qiulan hurriedly asked.

The Darkness Origin…

Truth be told, it could.

But come on, the Heavenly Dao was like a rabid dog, biting at anything in sight! If it projected them, wouldn’t the Heavenly Dao attack?

“I only have this one chance to survive; An Li told you to protect me, right?” Bai Qiulan said urgently.

“As long as I don’t die, I would be of use to you, so you have to help me!”

“Project our images out!”

“Even if Lu Ye kills me, he will still be subjected to the world’s ridicule. Lu Ye is your greatest enemy; this is bad for him!”

“So, help me!”

The Darkness Origin pondered for a moment.

At that moment, it seemed to have understood something.

“Alright, I’ll help you!”

It had just wanted to activate the power when Bai Qiulan spoke again.

“Wait, I want to find a beautiful place!”

Even in death, she wanted a beautiful resting ground; although if Lu Ye truly acted against her, she’d probably end up a pile of bones anyway.

Time ticked by for half a quarter.

The power of the Darkness Origin erupted.

In the Nine Heavens, each layer had a massive light screen resembling a projection materializing.

The screens were so huge that countless beings could see the images within.

This is???
