Chapter 915 “Liu Qing Yu’s goal (4)”
Liu Qing Yu shuddered at the conditions laid before herself. Despite the dread she felt inside, this woman also knew it’s too late to turn back now. After all, if she could promise to become someone’s slave already, what does it matter if an extra poison was added to the equation?
Steeling her nerves, she pops the poison into her mouth with resolve. “I’ve taken the poison now, does that mean I can leave?”
“Your subordinates are still in my place. Do you not intend to take them with you?” Bai Yan asks with a hint of melodramatic effect like she’s shocked by the way Liu Qing Yu was abandoning her own people.
On the other hand, the now ‘slave’ didn’t care about the taunting ridicule. Compared with Bai Yan’s strength and intimidation, she’s more afraid of that peerless and domineering demon king. But thinking back to Uncle Jun who’s still risking his own life for herself, Liu Qing Yu atleast had some sense of humanity left in her. “Fine, I’ll go back with you first.”
Unfortunately that attitude didn’t sit well with Bai Yan in the least: “Is this the tone a servant should be using against their mistress?”
“I…” The ‘slave’ wanted to lash out from rage right there and then; however, upon thinking back to her own life she subsided. “Mistress, I am wrong.”
But instead of getting an affirmative answer in return, Bai Yan only stabs her bony quill down onto the earth. This should’ve been an unimportant gesture, yet the impacting force alone actually shook the entire mountain range and causes Liu Qing Yu to stumble backwards in great fright.
How can this woman be so temperamental? Inhaling deeply, she bites the apple and yields: “Mistress, I will never dare again…”
Retracting her weapon, Bai Yan seems to be appeased atleast for now. “Liu Qing Yu, don’t think you will be able to escape from my control one day. This poison is my own creation. Aside from me, no one knows how to develop the antidote. If you try anything or go against my orders, I believe I don’t need to go into details on what’s to come.” Due to the threatening tone in the voice, her words actually earned a shudder from the other side.
Truth was, this woman from the Spirit Realm was also a talented alchemist in her own right. Unfortunately, the poison was so amazing that she couldn’t detect it in the slightest when ingesting the pill, indicating how formidable the recipe must be to be able to bypass her senses.
“Mistress, I would never dare to have alternative thoughts.”
The very fact that she has survived to this day in the Spirit Realm without others managing to kill her showed Liu Qing Yu wasn’t a brash person. Sure, the future may look grim for now, but that doesn’t mean there’s no hope still….
“Then let’s go.” Leaving only that behind herself, Bai Yan swiftly transforms into a flash of light and shot towards the main estate again.
As hesitant and unwilling as this newfound ‘slave’ was, Liu Qing Yu could only follow from behind after watching that gradually disappearing light. Her speed may not be as fast but it doesn’t change the part she’s now a lowly dog that must go where commanded.
……
Inside the main estate, the guests are currently dead silent as they watched nervously at the lax looking man sitting atop of the huge chair that’s normally reserved for the master of the house. Despite the dominating and arrogant air this individual portrayed, he’s extremely seductive in the eyes of the female body to the point where some are actively drooling inwardly, wishing so dearly they could go up and start up a conversation. Well, that was assuming if there wasn’t already an old senior lying underneath the man’s feet like a defeated rag doll…..
Uncle Jun at this moment was doing absolutely terrible. There’s a constant stream of blood coming out of his mouth and the only thing this poor grandpa could think of was whether or not the lady managed to return to the Spirit Realm or not.
Suddenly, a striking red-light charges through the doorway and catches their attention. When the defeated old senior saw who it was through the corner of his eye, he despaired. If this woman is back then does that mean, the lady…..
“Mother.” Bai Xiachen didn’t wait and threw himself into those arms after recognizing who it was.
