Chapter 549 - 272: Counterattack Against Venerable Qianhua
"Venerable Qianhua, it’s not that you know you’re wrong; you’re just scared."
You Su suddenly spoke out, lying on the ground, laughing wantonly.
Seeing her fellow disciple’s miserable state, Wangshu was further convinced of her opinion.
A ferocious look suddenly appeared on Venerable Qianhua’s cold and glamorous face. She understood very well that instead of compromising to seek peace, it was better to continue trying to control the girl!
Compared to the future, now was the best time to control her! Imagine a monster capable of world-destruction being at her command; she felt her ambition was almost igniting!
And at this moment, she suddenly hardened her heart and unleashed all her pressure.
The vase by the desk vibrated at an extremely low frequency, and the toys on the ground clashed together with a crisp sound.
Wangshu stood ready for battle, her sword’s intent continually brewing, while You Su was in great pain, curled on the ground.
Concerned for her fellow disciple, Wangshu prepared to draw her sword to break Venerable Qianhua’s aura, but You Su was suddenly hoisted up by a ribbon and, in an instant, captured by Venerable Qianhua at the throat.
"Drop the sword!"
Wangshu’s movement indeed stalled, her raised sword hesitating.
"If you don’t want your fellow disciple to die, drop the sword!" Venerable Qianhua continued to command.
She saw clearly that You Su was the girl’s weakness; only by controlling You Su could she control Wangshu.
You Su’s limbs were bound; he couldn’t even kick his legs, and with his throat grasped, he couldn’t speak, only glaring with wide eyes and whimpering.
Because Wangshu exerted too much force, her jade hand’s knuckles protruded, and she suddenly flung her sword, which embedded firmly into the floor.
"Let go of my fellow disciple!"
Venerable Qianhua laughed again, "Wangshu Fairy, don’t be too naive."
"You!" Wangshu made a motion to draw her sword.
Venerable Qianhua, however, turned back toward You Su, raising him higher and tightening her grip:
"Don’t move! You can’t escape the palm of my hand... If I pick you as a pet, you must be my pet!"
You Su struggled more intensely, and Wangshu dared not act rashly, "Don’t strangle my fellow disciple!"
The girl’s previously bright pupils dimmed slightly; she truly wanted to ask the Third Elder, didn’t they say evil creatures are more formidable than humans? But why did she find humans even harder to deal with?
Venerable Qianhua slightly loosened her hand, proudly looking at You Su and said:
"Seeing that you want to talk so much, speak."
You Su first took a deep breath, finally calming down. Because he was being held up, his viewpoint looked down at Venerable Qianhua, and there was a strange sense of pity.
"Speak quickly!" Venerable Qianhua was somewhat resentful of You Su’s defiance, "When a wild dog cannot be tamed into a domestic dog, it loses its value. I hope you can understand this!"
"Venerable Qianhua, your black and gold cheongsam is beautiful; what material is it made from?"
You Su grinned and asked this nonsensical question with a smile.
Venerable Qianhua was bewildered, "Why are you asking this?"
But just as she asked, she suddenly sensed something was wrong!
Wasn’t You Su blind? How could he possibly see that she’s wearing a cheongsam, even accurately mentioning the color?!
She fixed her gaze on him again, realizing You Su’s eyes were merging into the night, pitch black!
And within this darkness, there was a faint green glimmer, like ghostly lamps lit along the paths of hell!
Just as she was stunned and shocked, her lips parted slightly, she abruptly felt her mouth being forced wide open!
She quickly released You Su and grabbed the rough object stuffed into her throat, yanking it hard, revealing a slick white snake!
She did not know what creature this was, but she knew it certainly had something to do with this pretending blind boy!
She immediately wanted to choke the snake to death, but its body suddenly enlarged, forcibly escaping Venerable Qianhua’s control.
Venerable Qianhua watched the enormous, fanged sandworm, unable to hide her shock. Just how many cards up their sleeves did these two have that she hadn’t seen?
Venerable Qianhua spat, clearing the snake’s residual mucus from her mouth. Behind her, several straps flew out, firmly binding Xiaohua’s head.
She suddenly noticed a peculiar fragrance remaining in her mouth and immediately recognized its source:
"The creature expelled dragon salivary? You don’t plan to use this to make me faint, let the thing enter my body and enlarge, bursting me apart, do you?"
You Su collapsed to the ground, a look of genuine panic finally appearing on his face.
Venerable Qianhua glanced at You Su’s foiled plot expression, couldn’t help but grin triumphantly, and then suddenly felt a metallic taste in her throat.
Am I coughing up blood?
"Senior sister! Attack her!" You Su suddenly shouted.
Wangshu instantly obeyed, drawing her sword into a semicircle, intent on cutting Venerable Qianhua down with one strike.
Seeing the girl’s desperate move, Venerable Qianhua had no choice but to withstand this strike. She could not let this sword land, or it would shatter pillars and break floors, exposing all her Sound Insulation and Shock Absorption Arrays!
If things went completely out of hand, it would not benefit her at all!
She once again employed the Qi-to-Quilt Skill, forcibly dissolving the sword’s energy, and then used the ribbon to hoist You Su again, shouting:
"Are you really going to destroy everything together!"
Wangshu was forced to halt her sword.
"Throw the sword over here!"
Venerable Qianhua, irritated by the persistent rebellion of these two toys, finally abandoned her pretense of elegance.
Wangshu looked at You Su’s pained face and had no choice but to comply, "Quickly release my fellow disciple! He’s in great distress!"
Venerable Qianhua glanced at You Su with bulging blue veins, snorted coldly, and mercilessly threw him to the floor.
You Su immediately started coughing violently, yet still managed to gasp intermittently, "Venerable... Qianhua..."
Venerable Qianhua’s brow furrowed with anger, "I advise you not to provoke me again!"
You Su, however, curled the corners of his mouth, mumbling:
"Venerable... Qianhua... you wouldn’t want others to know that the Pavilion Master of Qianhua Pavilion is an evil creature, would you?"
"You’re downright stubborn to a damnable extent!"
Venerable Qianhua gritted her teeth, her chest heaving violently.
But in the next instant, she held her breath, stunned on the spot.
I was just about to use the ribbon to punish his disrespect again... why isn’t the ribbon obeying me?
You Su saw her bewildered expression and suddenly burst into laughter, his whole body trembling with mirth.
Venerable Qianhua refused to believe it and manipulated the silks towards Wangshu, but this time, they obediently responded to her command.
"Stop, don’t touch my senior sister."
Upon this command, the silks suspended in mid-air actually came to a halt, and Venerable Qianhua looked on in disbelief.
She had aligned with fabric through the way of clothing, with all these materials perceiving her as the master. How could they obey You Su’s command?
"The ’Research on Evil Creatures’ Affiliates’ records three rules. One, affiliates unconditionally obey their master’s orders; two, affiliates cannot harbor harmful intentions towards their master; three, once the affiliate relationship is established, it cannot be voluntarily severed unless the master dies."
You Su spoke to himself, but in Venerable Qianhua’s ears, it was like hearing a sacred chant.
"You... are an evil creature!"
Venerable Qianhua looked at the weakened boy in disbelief, finally understanding everything the boy had done.
He was not completely blind; he could see! He deliberately exposed this information to draw her attention and then used those eyes to make her pause for a moment!
The little snake and dragon salivary earlier were nothing but a Blinding Skill! The unremarkable metallic taste in her throat was You Su’s trump card! And when she just noticed the anomaly, he ordered Wangshu to attack recklessly to distract her!
It wasn’t her blood; it was You Su’s blood that the snake spit into her!
She didn’t know this was planned by You Su when she entered, having Xiaohua gnaw the heart blood from his chest!
"You are also an evil creature."
You Su blinked his eyes, his smile radiant.
"Oh, and from now on you cannot address me as ’you,’ but as..."
"Master."
