BXBX NOVEL Chapter 108: 8) Three and Brach...
"So, the cast-aside wife deigns to grace me with her presence..." His voice was velvet-smooth, yet carried an undercurrent of disdain due to her lack of talent.
Bai Lung is a villain, a cursed child of heaven, beauty means nothing if she doesn't possess any talent in cultivation, for him.
"Let's cut the chase and be truthful... Tell me, what do you possess that could possibly be of use to one such as I?"
The atmosphere suddenly turned oppressive.
Xu Yin met his gaze unflinchingly, her own features carefully schooled into an impassive mask.
"I am skilled in the domestic arts, Holy Envoy. I can tend to your every need, from preparing meals to overseeing the household... I have refined arts in Tea making and piano," Her tone was measured, devoid of emotion.
Bai Lung's lips curled into a small smile.
"How...pedestrian." He drummed his fingers against the arm of his chair, his eyes narrowing slightly.
"I had heard tales of your beauty and talent, but it would seem they were greatly exaggerated,"
He paused, his gaze shifting to where Xiao Ling'r stood, a calculating gleam entering his eyes.
"As for you,..." A slow, predatory smile spread across his face.
"Perhaps you might be of more...interest to me, go stand beside your mother," he said, his voice cold as ice.
Saintess felt chill but nodded her head, and made a way.
The Mother and Daughter stood side by side... Both are equally beautiful and sexy, with an alluring body.
With a slight incline of his head, he regarded them both as if they were mere pawns on a chessboard.
"How...quaint." his eyes narrowed as he studied them intently.
"I had heard whispers of your virtues, but it would seem they were greatly... Way too much exaggerated," His lips curled into a humorless smile.
"Domestic arts and musical refinement hold little interest for one such as I..."
Pausing, he leaned forward slightly, a new gleam entering his eyes. "However, there may be...other ways you could be of use to me, but before that, I will give you an opportunity... Even though, the sect master handed you to me, if you don't wish to serve me, you can escape from here,"
His gaze flickered between the two women, a predatory gleam dancing in their depths.
Xu Yin felt a chill run down her spine, but she refused to show any sign of her discomfort.
Keeping her expression carefully neutral while glancing at her daughter, she inclined her head slightly.
"I am at your service, Holy Envoy," she said, her tone measured and calm.
"If there is any task you require, I shall endeavor to complete it to the best of my abilities,"
Bai Lung's smile widened in his heart, while his face remained cold.
He leaned back in his throne, his fingers steepling beneath his chin.
'Hmm... Quite interesting things are happening,' with that, his eyes glinted with menacing light.
If she wished to serve him best of her abilities then be it.
"I see... Move on to my residence, the talk ends here," Saying that, Bai Lung got up from the utmost central seat and walked outside the grand hall.
———
Snap!
With a snap of his fingers, Bai Luo Yi was summoned before him... Well, the Bai Luo Yi in front of him is just an image, the real one is in search of Mu Chen.
Mu Chen's ability based on Beta Fang's report has greatly impressed him, however, if it turns out that Beta Fang has lied to him just like how he did with all sect members then... Cruel fate awaits him.
"I am deeply ashamed Holy Son, but, I didn't manage to find the clue about him... I heard he had descended to Wood Gaun, a valley of tall trees, but his location remains unknown,"
She reported, her image kneeling.
"Hmm... I see, keep searching for him, if you see anyone helping him instantly kill them, but don't engage head to head with Mu Chen, he is like a wildfire,"
Bai Lung remained ruthless as ever, not even batting an eye while issuing a killing order for innocents.
"The one understands..." Saying that the image disappeared into the shadow.
This is called phantom shadow art, one of the family art of Bai Lung's family.
"Mu Chen, Oh, Mu Chen..." Bai Lung smirked in a sinister way, while he looked at primordial seed in his hand.
This was another reward handed to him by the system as Daily Log-in.
"Primordial Unknown origin egg, primordial seed... Hmph! The system is truly a blessing," Bai Lung said to himself, knowing how much help it was.
[ of course, helping the Host is my duty ]
She floats in the air, wrapping her arms around his neck, her breast on his back shoulders, providing comfort.
[ Protagonist! ]
- Mu Chen
- Yang Khan
[ Reward progression: 1/3 ]
A blue window popped in front of him, showing two alive protagonists, he had encountered.
As blessed as he is, he would also gain a powerful reward, once he slaughters 3 protagonists, truly, when spring arrives it's only reasonable for birds to sing.
In the next instance, The Black inky aura emerged from his hands while he took some deep breaths.
It was too hard for him to control his lust... He wanted to absorb the spirit roots of everyone presented there...
The thick smell of Talent and possibilities, in the Grand Hall was constantly challenging his patience.
He was hungry, lustful for Talent and power.
"Haah!" Bai Lung looked at his shaky hands, "It's time for me to feast,"
He muttered in a small tone, wanting to swallow the origin of some talented individual.
Swoosh!
His figure blurred while he made his way to the sect's core disciple area.
