Chapter 41: Do You Understand the Weight of Being a “Friend of the Villain”?
The black-robed man’s expression obviously froze for a moment.
After a while, he came back to his senses, slowly turned his head, stared into Mu Zhi’an’s eyes, and said coldly,
“You want to take action against me?”
He was very clear about his value, which was why he could chat so casually with Mu Zhi’an just now.
When he was trapped here by Lan Mulian, he had thought of many reactions the other party might have, but he never expected that the other party actually wanted to eliminate him on the spot.
“Young Master Mu, you need to consider carefully. Do you have any curiosity about how many secrets are hidden on my body?” The black-robed man said in a deep voice.
Mu Zhi’an turned his head to look at him and asked, “Then I’ll ask, will you tell?”
The black-robed man hesitated for a moment and slowly shook his head.
Then, noticing that Mu Zhi’an stood up and drew his sword from the scabbard, with undisguised killing intent in his eyes, the black-robed man hurriedly said, “If you kill me, the Seventh Seat will immediately know who did it, and then you will become an enemy of the demon race! You need to think clearly!”
Now that he was restrained by Lan Mulian’s technique, coupled with his serious injuries, even a Qi Condensation stage cultivator could easily eliminate him. It was no wonder the black-robed man was anxious.
Hearing this, Mu Zhi’an couldn’t help but hesitate and asked, “Seventh Seat?”
The black-robed man’s eyes flickered slightly, but he didn’t say anything.
Then, he raised his head and said, “If you can make a vow to release me and guarantee that the cultivators outside won’t deal with me, I can tell you about the Seventh Seat—”
As soon as he raised his head, the sword tip had pierced through his throat.
The black-robed man’s eyes suddenly widened, staring at Mu Zhi’an’s eyes in disbelief.
“I am a bit interested in the Seventh Seat, but I even more so don’t want you to leave here safely.” Mu Zhi’an swung the blood off the sword blade onto the ground and returned it to the scabbard. He looked at the black-robed man who was slowly falling to the ground indifferently.
From the moment Mu Zhi’an stepped into this “prison”, he had no intention of letting the black-robed man leave.
If he didn’t kill him now, it would be more troublesome later.
Because the hatred in the black-robed man’s eyes just now had reached an unbearable level.
The black-robed man had murderous intent towards him, towards the Mu family, and even towards Bai Ruoxi.
Moreover, the black-robed man also knew that the Heavenly Dao Aura was now on Bai Ruoxi. Once this news spread, the trouble would be big.
Rather than releasing a ticking time bomb, it was better to let the black-robed man explode into pieces with all his secrets.
Letting the black-robed man go would bring endless future troubles.
Mu Zhi’an looked at the black-robed man who had completely lost his vitality and withdrew his gaze. Then, he opened his personal interface.
He wanted to see how much weight his “supporting role” still had after suppressing Ye Yu, the “protagonist”.
When he opened the interface, the originally large font of “supporting role” had gradually faded from the original deep color to a light pink.
Pink… this should be a good thing, representing that after weakening Ye Yu’s protagonist status, his proportion as a supporting role was also declining.
Looking to the side again, the two titles “Heavenly Jealousy of Talent” and “Natural Furnace” were still black and purple.
Mu Zhi’an continued to stare.
He was surprised to find that the font color of the four large characters “Friend of the Villain” had completely changed from the original purple-black to a deep black.
Mu Zhi’an was stunned for a moment.
Strange… why did the color of “Friend of the Villain” become even darker after I killed the black-robed man?
If the black-robed man’s words didn’t deceive him, killing him should have made him be remembered by that “Seventh Seat” and become a member of the demon race’s blacklist.
As a result, the title “Friend of the Villain” became even blacker?
Just as this thought flashed through Mu Zhi’an’s mind, he suddenly noticed that the black-robed man was turning into black mist and dissipating at this moment.
However, that black mist did not disappear into the air, but gradually spread in this moon-white “prison” until finally, the originally sacred prison was completely invaded by darkness.
Something was wrong… Mu Zhi’an’s heart felt a slight chill. He turned around, wanting to leave this prison.
At this moment, a clear and charming sweet voice suddenly came to his ears,
“A natural furnace… If you weren’t in the Eastern Realm, you could come and be this seat’s pet.”
As the charming voice that made people’s bones feel soft came from behind his ears, Mu Zhi’an’s whole body broke out in goosebumps. He slowly turned his head to look.
Unknowingly, a will as vast as the sea quietly descended upon this small space.
She was wearing a slightly loose duijin top, her robe completely unable to hide her sexy and graceful figure. Her eyes were as enchanting as waves, but also seemed to reveal an indescribable majesty, making people not dare to look directly at her.
Even though it was the first time seeing this woman, Mu Zhi’an still recognized her identity at the first moment.
This should be the “Demon Empress” mentioned by the black-robed man, the ruler of the demon realm!
As for the reason for such a guess, one only needed to see her snake tail.
However, although she appeared in the image of a mature and sexy older sister, and looked particularly alluring, which was the type Mu Zhi’an liked, his body still involuntarily tensed up.
No wonder the font color of “Friend of the Villain” would turn black like that… He didn’t expect that even the will of this “Demon Empress” would descend.
If he knew that killing the black-robed man would attract the Demon Empress of the demon realm, he would never have taken action just now no matter what.
“Greetings to the Demon Empress.” He lowered his head slightly and cupped his hands.
That graceful illusory figure slowly approached and finally came in front of him. She slightly lowered her head to look at him and chuckled, “I thought I had encountered that woman Shang Yanfei. I didn’t expect that my sense of will would be summoned because of a little Qi Condensation stage brat.”
Mu Zhi’an kept his head lowered, only secretly speculating about the name “Shang Yanfei” in his heart.
Someone who could be on par with the Heaven Devouring Serpent in strength… Seemed to be only that sect master of the Two Polarity Sect, right?
Was Shang Yanfei the name of that sect master?
“I wonder what the Demon Empress has come here for?” Mu Zhi’an asked in a calm tone, but his heartbeat still involuntarily sped up a few beats.
The woman slightly raised her eyes and said softly, “Where is the Heavenly Dao Aura?”
“If the Demon Empress wants it, this junior will go get it for you in a moment.” Mu Zhi’an said sincerely.
“You do have the heart… However, I’m not very interested in the Heavenly Dao Aura.” She gently shook her head, “I have something I care about more.”
Mu Zhi’an raised his head to look at her, only to see the corners of her mouth curl up as she looked down at him from on high and said softly,
“You.”
A natural furnace, this also meant that when cultivating together with other female cultivators, the cultivation speed of both parties would increase to an indescribable level. Although for someone like the Heaven Devouring Serpent, a natural furnace was of no use.
But occasionally tasting delicious spiritual energy was not a bad sentiment.
She casually changed the topic and said, “If I remember correctly, the sect assessment of the Two Polarity Sect is less than half a month away. After joining the Two Polarity Sect, I will have someone contact you and have you report the intelligence of the Two Polarity Sect once every three months.”
Mu Zhi’an was slightly stunned and subconsciously said, “Why me…?”
He couldn’t quite figure out the intentions of this beautiful snake. He originally thought that her will descending here was to avenge the black-robed man, but now it seemed that she didn’t care about the black-robed man’s life or death at all.
Since that was the case, why did she descend…?
Could it be the influence of the title “Friend of the Villain”… Mu Zhi’an thought to himself.
The Demon Empress who enchanted all living beings gently stretched out her hand, her slender fingers lightly brushing over Mu Zhi’an’s face, and smiled, “With your ability, it won’t be difficult to enter the high levels of the Two Polarity Sect in the future.”
Seeing that Mu Zhi’an remained silent for a long time, she continued to ask gently, “Or, are you going to refuse me?”
Anyway, it’s better to agree first, and then consider how to deal with it later… Mu Zhi’an nodded slightly, “Since it’s a request from a senior, this junior naturally won’t refuse even if it means death.”
The woman smiled charmingly, “I look forward to the information you bring. After entering the Two Polarity Sect, I will have my subordinates secretly contact you.”
Does this mean that there are already demon cultivators inside the Two Polarity Sect? This beautiful snake seems to have great ambitions… Mu Zhi’an looked at the figure that was gradually disappearing and “hmm”ed without any expression.
“By the way, I forgot to tell you,” As the will as vast as the sea was disappearing, accompanied by a fresh fragrance floating into his nostrils, she slightly leaned close to Mu Zhi’an’s ear, her seductive little mouth slightly opened, and whispered, “I can read minds.”
Mu Zhi’an: “…”
Until this Demon Empress disappeared from the “prison”, Mu Zhi’an realized that his back was drenched in cold sweat at some unknown time.
From the moment he awakened his memories until now, it was the first time he realized how correct the saying was that when the difference in strength reached a certain level, any schemes and tricks were useless.
