I Love You! Kill Me, Then~

Zhang Ziling looked at Xiao Yu's nakedly obvious gaze and subconsciously tugged at her collar. "As long as it is not an act of transgression, you may speak freely about anything else!"

Xiao Yu let out a soft breath at her words.

He naturally knew Zhang Ziling did not think highly of him. If he had not been utterly loyal to her, any other man who dared profane her would likely have been killed long ago.

The Hehuan Seven Beauties, bluntly speaking, were the immortal seedlings of their Hehuan Sect.

All of them possessed the potential to reach Core Formation.

Many people, especially women, preserved their primordial yin in order to successfully form their cores.

Some women experienced changes in temperament after breaking through a realm.

It was detrimental to cultivation.

Unless they had truly fallen in love.

After pondering for a moment, Xiao Yu cupped his fists and said, "This disciple does not wish to overstep. This disciple also knows that Master's standards are high, and that you do not think much of a disciple with such poor aptitude."

"This disciple has only one wish: after this disciple reaches Foundation Establishment, Master can..."

When Xiao Yu reached this point, his voice suddenly lowered.

Just as he was about to walk up to Zhang Ziling, he was pinned in place by her divine sense.

Zhang Ziling glanced sideways and chuckled. Unlike her shy embarrassment from last time, there was now a trace of shrewdness in her eyes.

"You have been so devoted from the very beginning because of this?"

"If cultivators like us concern ourselves only with romantic entanglements, it will naturally be difficult to endure long upon the immortal path. It is no more than a single night of wind and snow. Do not let this matter lead your Dao heart astray."

Xiao Yu stepped forward without hesitation and grabbed Zhang Ziling's arm. "If I cannot win Master's favor, then that is what would lead this disciple's Dao heart astray..."

Zhang Ziling's face flushed red again, and she shoved him away with her backhand. "Get lost!"

Xiao Yu remained unmoved. "I nearly died on the road for Master's artifact. Since Master does not wish to reward me, then this disciple will do it himself..."

As Xiao Yu spoke, he looked at her red lips.

Before he could get close, he felt something pressing against his lower abdomen.

Seeing the scissors in Zhang Ziling's hand, Xiao Yu immediately swallowed.

Seeing his expression, Zhang Ziling snorted irritably and took out a storage pouch. "There is a mid-grade defensive artifact in here, along with two Foundation Establishment Pills. As your master, I will not let you work for nothing!"

"If you dare speak so disrespectfully again, do not blame your master for what follows!"

Xiao Yu blurted out, "I love you! Kill me, then~"

Zhang Ziling's brows and eyes trembled. "Get lost!!!"

Looking at this bastard, she raised the scissors high into the air.

She swore that if he said one more word, she really would strike. "Can't you just properly do what you are supposed to do?"

Xiao Yu was unafraid of death. "If falling in love with someone is also a mistake, then I would rather make the same mistake again and again!"

"If I truly must be punished, then if the one I love takes away something important from me, I will have no regrets..."

As Xiao Yu spoke, he thrust out his lower abdomen, wearing an expression that said, Come on, then.

But in the next instant, Zhang Ziling coldly asked, "Have you plucked my disciple?"

Xiao Yu immediately released Wang Mei from the Jade Maiden Gourd. With a solemn expression, he cupped his fists and shouted, "This disciple has absolutely no improper thoughts toward Senior Sister Wang and has always treated her with propriety!!!! Heaven and earth bear witness!"

Upon seeing Zhang Ziling, Wang Mei hurriedly lowered her head and knelt. "Dis... Disciple greets Master... Thank you, Master, for sparing this disciple's life!"

Zhang Ziling glanced at Wang Mei, then at Xiao Yu. "The two of you..."

Xiao Yu's expression did not change. "This disciple is utterly loyal to Master and has always done my utmost to protect Senior Sister's safety. How could I dare entertain improper thoughts?"

Wang Mei nodded hurriedly. "Yes, yes... Junior Brother treats me like an honored guest... This disciple knows my sins are unforgivable and is willing to redeem myself through merit. If Master requires this disciple to do anything, this disciple will not hesitate to brave death ten thousand times!"

Xiao Yu, standing beside her, wore a contemplative expression. What exactly did his master mean?

Why was she asking whether he had done anything with Wang Mei...

And though her words were harsh, she had no intention of actually making a move.

After thinking for a moment, Zhang Ziling said softly, "I have received Fire Monk's reply. Next month, Wang Mei, you will accompany Xiao Yu and bring Fire Monk's grandson into the Ten Thousand Demons Secret Realm!"

Xiao Yu shook his head at once. "Master, no! Once the Ten Thousand Demons Secret Realm opens, the righteous sects will definitely make a move. I will go nowhere. I will remain at Master's side and guard you!"

"This time, this disciple will not agree. I will absolutely not go to the Ten Thousand Demons Secret Realm!"

Zhang Ziling slowly exhaled. "I need you to help me find a treasure... Only Qi Refining Stage cultivators may enter that secret realm! You are now at Qi Refining, Sixth Layer, and you are also one of the disciples I value most!"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yu directly sent Zhang Ziling a voice transmission: If I bring that thing out, would Master be willing to have a private talk with this disciple in the forest?

The corner of Zhang Ziling's eye twitched. She knew Xiao Yu had brought Wang Mei along, so she had wanted to call Wang Mei out as a shield.

How was this Xiao Yu so insatiable? He had actually seen through her difficulty.

And he was still saying all this nonsense.

Xiao Yu continued transmitting: I am willing to die for you!

Zhang Ziling: Then die.

Xiao Yu: If I die, who will do things for you? Can you trust those people? Doesn't Master also feel more at ease letting me do things because you know I like you?

Zhang Ziling: Do not spout nonsense...

Xiao Yu: If anyone else had said such things to Master, you would have probably killed him long ago. I do not care. Even if Master crosses the river and demolishes the bridge afterward, I will still love you!

Xiao Yu: Do not say you want a treasure from the Ten Thousand Demons Secret Realm. Even if you wanted the moon in the sky, this disciple would drag it down for you!

Wang Mei remained kneeling beside them.

She did not say a word the entire time.

She was nervous beyond measure.

Why were these two not speaking either?

They were not transmitting their voices again, were they...

Wait a moment?

Could Master be teasing Master?

Was his courage really this great?

Why was her master getting angry too?

Wang Mei clearly remembered that when a man from the Hehuan Sect had once spoken disrespectfully to her master, her master had directly gouged out his eyes.

Not long afterward.

Xiao Yu left with Wang Mei.

Zhang Ziling rested her cheek on one hand. Thinking of Xiao Yu's astonishingly rapid cultivation progress, she lowered her head in thought.

He had likely obtained some treasure, which was why his cultivation speed was so fast.

As his master, she had hardly taught him anything.

He could keep that Qi-Concealing Artifact, then. After all, he was a disciple who had risked his life for her.

Others could not be allowed to discover that his cultivation speed was abnormal.

Zhang Ziling slowly exhaled. Recalling the frivolous nonsense he had said with that grinning face, amusement rose in her heart.

If he wanted to become Zhang Ziling's Dao companion, glib words alone would not be enough.

And why did she feel that the way Wang Mei had looked at Xiao Yu just now was somewhat strange?

Forget it. Why bother with what they were doing?

They were both her disciples anyway.

Besides, why should she care about Xiao Yu? If he got together with another woman, she, as his master, should be happy.

Then if he spouted nonsense again, she could use this matter to shut him down completely.

She would make him abandon that thought once and for all.

She should first think of a way to deal with Ye Zhirou.

If necessary, perhaps she could lure her away?

At the same time, Xiao Yu, who had already returned to the alchemy room, was also deep in thought.

Zhang Ziling had been using Wang Mei as a shield just now, had she not?

That meant... Zhang Ziling was still somewhat resistant to him now, but she was already much better than last time.

At any rate, this time he had hugged her, and she had not attacked him. She had merely said a few harsh words.

Since that was the case...

Next time, he could be even more unscrupulous.

Given enough time, they would always reach that step!

As he thought, he released Ye Zimei and the others.

At that moment, Ye Zimei was being held down by Huang Xiang and Li Qingyun.

Contrary to expectations, when Ye Zimei looked at Li Qingyun, her eyes were filled with boundless affection.

Xiao Yu immediately grinned when he saw this. So Ye Zimei really did like women.

That made things much easier!

"Qingyun, why are you still standing there? Pour Miss Ye some tea and bring her something to eat."

Li Qingyun bowed at his words. "Yes, Master..."

Ye Zimei's brows and eyes trembled. She turned to Xiao Yu and cursed, "You actually captured Miss Qingyun and brought her into the demonic sect. What are your intentions?"

Xiao Yu chuckled softly. "What are my intentions? What are your intentions? What kind of expression was that just now?"

Just as they were speaking, Li Qingyun approached with her head lowered.

After pouring Ye Zimei a cup of tea, she sat in Xiao Yu's lap and poured tea for him.

Ye Zimei's brows and eyes trembled at the sight.

Xiao Yu chuckled softly. "What? You want to come too?"

Ye Zimei snorted coldly. After taking a sip of tea, she tilted her head and shouted, "Kill me if you want... There is no need for further words!"

Xiao Yu said, "Why would I kill you? I will make you willingly stay here! Wang Mei, go entertain our Great Fairy Ye!"

Wang Mei rose at his words and walked straight toward Ye Zimei.

Although Ye Zimei would curse endlessly whenever she saw Xiao Yu, the moment she saw the woman approaching her, her face reddened.

Wang Mei arrived before her with a gentle, seductive expression and said softly, "Miss, Mei'er greets you with courtesy~!"

Ye Zimei froze at her words. "Mm... Ah... Pleased to meet you!"

In the next instant, she suddenly felt dizzy and lightheaded.

Why did she feel somewhat unwell?

Looking at the tea she had just drunk, Ye Zimei's pupils shrank sharply. "Miss Qingyun... Why have you harmed me..."

Li Qingyun spoke somewhat quietly. "This little woman... only wanted Miss Ye to remain here forever. Does Miss Ye not like Qingyun..."

Ye Zimei tried to flee in panic.

But Wang Mei directly wrapped her arms around her.

In that instant, she completely panicked.

Xiao Yu also walked over at this time and wrapped an arm around Ye Zimei's waist.

Ye Zimei instinctively recoiled in disgust. "Don't... Don't touch me!!!"

"Isn't that disgusting!? Stay away from me!"

The moment she finished speaking, Xiao Yu slapped her.

Ye Zimei's expression trembled.

The moment she turned her head back, Wang Mei pulled her into her embrace. "Miss Ye~ Don't be so fierce. Mei'er will keep you company. Actually, being a woman is far more pleasurable than being a man~"

"You will find out soon enough~"

Just as Ye Zimei was about to say something, her head began spinning again.

Xiao Yu stepped forward with a chuckle.

After embracing her, he closed the room door.

At that moment, Zhang Ziling, who had already gathered the other two elders, spoke with a grave expression. "It is absolutely true. It is indeed Ye Zhirou, and she is now Shen Mengya's disciple!"

"I ask you two to lend me a hand. We act tonight at midnight!"
