Chapter 129 - 112 The Dream Sender
Faced with Li Yi’s request to change the condition again, the resentment within the Sword Coin did not refuse.
"Fine, bargaining is all part of the trade. Then I shall alter my demand, in the future you must help me retrieve my corpse and lay it to rest in the earth again," it proposed.
"Your body was taken away by Wang Hu, and now nobody knows where Wang Hu has disappeared to. Although I can promise you, I’m not certain when I can fulfill it," Li Yi said after considering for a moment.
The remnant resentment in the Sword Coin said, "No matter, as long as you’ve promised that’s enough. This is, after all, a wager, betting that you, a naturally evil Earth Prisoner, will keep your word. If you break the promise, I have no means to hold you accountable, especially since there’s a vicious curse clinging to you, and killing you is impossible for me."
"Can’t you say something nice for once? One moment it’s ’naturally evil’, another it’s ’deeply demonic’, and now you’re adding a ’vicious curse’..." Li Yi’s face darkened instantly.
"Haha," the remnant laughter from the Sword Coin began, "I mean not a hint of slander, you will understand in time. Every word I speak is the truth, all will come to pass. But now, you are too weak to touch the truth. Let’s end this topic here, let’s return to your previous question."
"The dream you just had isn’t false, it’s indeed real. This is a kind of Dream Implantation Technique, allowing people separated by thousands of miles to meet in dreams. It’s just unfortunate that since you are in the naturally evil Earth Prison, the technique’s efficacy is reduced, only allowing brief contact, unable to maintain the dream for a long time. So, you needn’t doubt— that girl named Zhao Qian is really looking for you. If you don’t keep the appointment at Midnight tonight, Zhao Qian will likely die in Ghost Street."
"What?" Li Yi was shocked, "You’re not joking, right?"
"In my life, I’ve always acted with rectitude, not like you Earth Prisoners, full of grandiloquence, inconsistency, and lack of credibility. Everything I’ve said is true, you bear the consequences if you don’t believe," the remnant resentment in the Sword Coin uttered.
At this moment, Li Yi’s expression changed unpredictably, and after a brief contemplation, he abruptly stood up.
He had made up his mind.
