At that moment, Ye Yu felt as if between heaven and earth there were only two people left—him and Liu Yuenong.
Everything else vanished.
His heart held only Liu Yuenong.
He even felt willing to do anything for her.
Even if it cost his life.
The feeling was strangely intoxicating.
His body grew heavier and heavier while his spirit grew lighter and lighter; just as the two were about to split apart completely—
A stabbing pain shot up his leg, snapping Ye Yu awake in an instant.
The world flared bright again.
Liu Yuenong and Heng Xuanzhen were still standing where they had been.
And Luo Shu...
Wait—where was Luo Shu?
The pain intensified. Ye Yu looked down and saw Luo Shu clamped onto his calf with a full bite.
“Let go! There’s no rabies cure in this world!”
Ye Yu whipped his leg and flung Luo Shu far away,
then reflexively rubbed at the spot.
Well—strictly speaking, there was no wound, just two very conspicuous tooth marks.
Luo Shu lifted his head from a distance and shook it off.
“What are you, kid, some kind of freak?” he groused.
“Your body’s harder than an Ancient Demon’s. If I hadn’t used every ounce of strength I had, I really might not have bitten you awake.
But seriously, my teeth are still aching.”
He said it on purpose for Heng Xuanzhen and Liu Yuenong to hear.
Luo Shu didn’t want them thinking Ye Yu belonged to Tongtian Pavilion; otherwise things would get very dangerous.
But there wasn’t a shred of exaggeration in it.
Ye Yu’s physical toughness had exceeded even his expectations.
And this was only the New God Realm. If Ye Yu ever stepped into the Great God Realm or Heavenly God Realm, Luo Shu could bite until he dropped and still not leave a mark.
To mash the Ancient Demon body-tempering method into a yokai body—this kid really was a talent.
Ye Yu said nothing; he fixed all his vigilance on Liu Yuenong.
This woman had shattered his mental defenses in an instant. If not for Luo Shu’s bite, his spirit might already have been yanked out of his body.
Such an ability was no mere charm trick.
A flicker of disappointment crossed Liu Yuenong’s eyes. “What a pity,” she said lightly. “Is my allure fading? I didn’t expect you to wake up from mere pain.”
“Enough,” Luo Shu barked. “Whatever reason you had for showing up again today—fine. You used to be part of Tongtian Pavilion. How about doing something for the God Alliance?”
Liu Yuenong understood perfectly and turned to Heng Xuanzhen. “Little girl, go,” she said softly. “You won’t get your revenge today. Stay, and you’ll be the only one who dies.”
Heng Xuanzhen didn’t answer. She only sped up the circulation of the sword intent around her.
That nettled Liu Yuenong.
“What, did you not understand me? In that case—”
Luo Shu’s canine face changed at once. He stared at Liu Yuenong in disbelief.
“Y-you—how do you know?”
Liu Yuenong seemed to relish the shock. She laughed. “I met Kuang Tailong. Naturally I learned a few things. That careless fool actually passed the Alliance Leader’s position to a yokai god—completely betraying the founding purpose of Tongtian Pavilion.”
“So I killed him.”
“Well? Going to thank me?”
“I’ll thank your—” Luo Shu snarled. “Whatever Kuang Tailong’s faults, he was once the God Alliance Leader of Tongtian Pavilion. You can’t just say ‘kill’ and kill. Do you have any respect for Tongtian Pavilion left in you?”
Liu Yuenong raised a hand again and pressed the furious Luo Shu down.
“Look at you—worked up again. You were a figure out of legend once upon a time. Try acting a little steadier.”
“God Alliance Leader, I was once of Tongtian Pavilion’s god-clan. I’ve had my fun outside. I’m coming back for a few days. You won’t refuse, will you?”
The last line was clearly aimed at Ye Yu.
It looked like a choice, {N•o•v•e•l•i•g•h•t} but there was no real choice at all.
Among the Demon Race and their ilk, strength rules. The bigger fist decides.
And Liu Yuenong had just shown her strength.
Ye Yu and Luo Shu couldn’t resist her.
Under those circumstances, Ye Yu had no grounds to refuse. He could only nod his agreement.
Liu Yuenong smiled, satisfied. “Thank you.”
She proactively laid down one thousand godstones,
saying they were her room fee for the next few days. If she stayed longer, she’d add more.
