Chapter 629: Chen Changsheng’s Silver Tongue, Bai Qiuniang’s Intent to k*ll
“You’ve never seen me before, how do you know it’s me?”
“You know I’m skilled in the way of puppets. To perform puppetry in front of me is simply a case of casting pearls before swine.”
“Don’t think that by muffling your voice and finding two substitutes, I won’t be able to smell your ‘odor.'”
“Everyone knows that I, Chen Changsheng, has an eye for discerning people. If even the King of the Dark Night in the Four Directions Continent mistakes me, that would be laughable.”
Hearing this, the woman clapped her hands and laughed, “The Undertaker is indeed the Undertaker, with insights unmatched in the world.”
“Since you are so skilled in calculations, have you not calculated that the Sky Soul is your d*ath date?”
“I have calculated this, but unfortunately, the Sky Soul is not my d*ath date.”
“Really?”
The woman smiled slightly, then leaned her body a bit.
A faint, fragrant scent drifted into Chen Changsheng’s nostrils, and delicate fingers as tender as spring onions lightly glided across Chen Changsheng’s face, finally resting at his throat.
“You’ve designed a trap for me, resulting in more than half of my stronghold being wiped out.”
“How do you plan to settle this debt with me?”
“Or do you truly think I’m not your opponent?”
Hearing the woman’s words, Chen Changsheng smiled and held her soft little hand, saying, “The renowned King of the Dark Night, Bai Qiuniang, could indeed k*ll me. But if you k*ll me, what you stand to lose won’t just return to you.”
“Instead of this, we might as well cooperate one more time; I guarantee you can regain what you lost a thousandfold.”
“Of course, as long as you can let me marry you, I will believe you.”
“I’m sorry, that’s not possible.”
Upon receiving this answer, Bai Qiuniang’s expression turned cold.
“In that case, why should I trust you?”
With that, Bai Qiuniang’s finger pierced through Chen Changsheng’s skin.
Though Chen Changsheng held her hand, he still could not stop that sharp nail.
“Hahaha!”
“Don’t be so impulsive, everything is negotiable. If you keep being so aggressive, I will get angry.”
“Then go ahead and be angry.”
“Relying solely on myself, I certainly have no confidence in killing you. But as long as your aura leaks, those old fellows will definitely come over.”
“When that happens, I don’t believe you can escape again.”
As she spoke, Bai Qiuniang’s sharp nails pierced into Chen Changsheng’s throat.
Facing Bai Qiuniang’s intent to k*ll, Chen Changsheng remained calm.
“I know you’re very angry, but even if you want to k*ll me, you should consider the price I offer.”
Saying this, Chen Changsheng looked at Zhang Zhen in the distance.
“Whoosh!”
Seeing Chen Changsheng’s gaze, Zhang Zhen turned and fled.
But a perfectly identical Bai Qiuniang pressed down on his shoulder.
“What do you want with a dead person?”
“That person is alive; why do you say they are dead?”
Chen Changsheng’s voice came from the shadows, and a perfect copy of Chen Changsheng emerged from the shadows.
After glancing at the Chen Changsheng beneath him and then at the remote Chen Changsheng, Bai Qiuniang snorted coldly and released her right hand.
Without Bai Qiuniang’s suppression, the “Chen Changsheng” on the throne transformed into a stream of light and returned to its original form.
“Indeed, as expected of the founder of the Sea of Suffering System; distinguishing between my clone and the real one is difficult, even for me.”
“Hahaha!”
“You aren’t bad either, although your proficiency still needs some work. Now, can we discuss things properly?”
Upon hearing this, Bai Qiuniang took another look at Chen Changsheng and then retracted her clone.
A warm reminder: If you think this book is good, to avoid not finding it next time, please remember to add it to your shelf!
“Unless your price can move me, you’re still going to d*e today.”
“I, Bai Qiuniang, will stop at nothing to make you lose your soul.”
Hearing this, Chen Changsheng patted Zhang Zhen on the shoulder and said, “Kid, show your Sky Soul to the King of the Dark Night. If you can’t satisfy her, you’re definitely dead today.”
In response to Chen Changsheng’s words, Zhang Zhen shot him a glance but ultimately obediently displayed his Sky Soul.
“A white Sky Soul is worthless; this kind of thing is more despicable than the weeds by the roadside, of no importance at all.”
Bai Qiuniang did not even raise an eyelid as she made her assessment.
Seeing this, Chen Changsheng grinned and said, “That can’t be said. There are things I want to accomplish that simply can’t be done without a white Sky Soul.”
“Imagine if a white Sky Soul became the Soul Emperor of the Four Directions Continent; what expressions would those old fellows have?”
Upon hearing this, Bai Qiuniang snorted in disdain.
“Chen Changsheng, those old fellows only take away your skull; they haven’t taken your brain as well.”
“A white Sky Soul becoming a Soul Emperor? You can’t be confused, can you?”
“Not to mention whether he has that ability, just given his current situation, how many years do you think he can live?”
“Why do you think a person with a worthless white Sky Soul and a short lifespan…”
“What if I’m willing to save him?”
Chen Changsheng interrupted Bai Qiuniang.
Looking at Chen Changsheng, Bai Qiuniang wanted to refute but swallowed her words.
Perhaps it was impossible for others, but he couldn’t say for certain because he was the Undertaker, a renowned imperial teacher.
“You can save him?”
“I have an idea; whether it succeeds depends on fate.”
“This young person before us is exactly what you all desire, isn’t he?”
“You think a low-quality Sky Soul makes you less than human? If it weren’t to change this status quo, you wouldn’t have come to me in the first place.”
“Now that I’m giving you hope, how come you’re all retreating?”
“We just want to change the status quo; we’re not trying to be traitors,” Bai Qiuniang directly refuted. “The Four Directions Continent is our home; I have no reason to destroy my own home.”
“You really know how to give yourself a golden face.”
Chen Changsheng looked at Bai Qiuniang with disdain.
“The Four Directions Continent is a home for geniuses, for all major sects, but is certainly not a home for you filthy rats.”
“Sky Soul quality is divided into red, gold, blue, green, and white.”
“You, with a blue-quality Sky Soul, have come this far; it’s completely justified to call you a genius.”
“But does the Four Directions Continent think highly of you?”
“In their eyes, you will always be a lowly person. No matter how powerful you are, you don’t qualify to be compared with those with golden quality Heavenly Prodigies.”
“If you all are willing to stand on my side, I may not offer much, just a seemingly worthless dignity.”
After listening to Chen Changsheng’s words, Bai Qiuniang subconsciously tightened her fists.
“We are ultimately people of the Four Directions Continent; why should I believe you won’t settle the score later?”
“Even if you won’t, how will the people of the Eight Desolates and Nine Domains see us traitors?”
“No, no, no!”
Chen Changsheng shook his finger.
“What you are doing is not called betrayal; it’s called overthrowing decay.”
“You know the history of the Eight Desolates and Nine Domains; in the beginning, they were mortal enemies, but now they are like one family.”
“Not long ago, I returned and gave them a little nudge, with the purpose of making their relationship less tense.”
“Those who were once my enemies, I can let them go. Not to mention you.”
“I wonder if this answer can make you trust me a little.”
