13: Chapter 13: Ten Thousand People Killed
Sister Liu thought she had hidden it well, but the fleeting panic in her eyes was still caught by Senior Brother Chu, who then connected it with Sister Liu's skilled Moves during their recent battle, and the first blood she had due to being too nervous to notice.
Senior Brother Chu's mind was as clear as a mirror now; he had been deceived by this woman, and he had initially felt he owed her something.
As he thought, the anger in Senior Brother Chu's heart burned brighter, and the grip on Sister Liu's hand involuntarily tightened.
"Sister Liu, I need an explanation." Senior Brother Chu's voice was deep, like a maddened beast's muffled roar.
He felt a wave of green wash over his head and was so furious he wanted to kill.
Sister Liu shivered all over and said pitifully, "Senior Brother Chu, haven't you felt my deep devotion to you?"
"This Senior Brother Chu, to avoid wronging a good person and not letting a bad person go, why don't you just make her swear a Heart Demon oath?" Zhang Bufan, who was enjoying the show, couldn't help but offer his suggestion.
"Yes, yes, yes." Prompted by Zhang Bufan, Senior Brother Chu nodded repeatedly and said to Sister Liu, "Junior Sister, I am suspicious of you now. To prove whether you are first blood or not, immediately swear a Heart Demon oath."
Senior Brother Chu already had the answer in his heart, but he was unwilling to accept that his first battle had been tricked away by this cheap woman, Sister Liu.
"Senior Brother Chu, I, I, I... sob, sob... Senior Brother Chu, my sincerity to you is witnessed by heaven and earth. Do you still not believe me?" Sister Liu looked panicked, then cried out anxiously. She knew very well what a Heart Demon oath was; if she dared to lie, the Heart Demon backlash would make her wish she were dead.
"I only believe a Heart Demon oath now." Senior Brother Chu saw Sister Liu's panicked expression, and his last shred of fantasy shattered. He threatened with an icy voice, "Sister Liu, if you don't swear a Heart Demon oath, then don't blame Senior Brother for being impolite to you."
"Senior Brother Chu, actually, I don't have first blood because I broke it myself when I was little. This has always been my secret. Since Senior Brother Chu has pushed me to this point, I can only be honest." Sister Liu constantly wiped away her tears and said pitifully, "If Senior Brother minds, then just consider me that kind of person. I'll accept any beating or scolding."
After Sister Liu's confession, the expression on Senior Brother Chu's face softened a bit. If she had done it herself, then he wouldn't be 'green', which was acceptable.
"Senior Brother Chu, although what Sister Liu said is reasonable, after all, you can't see into a person's heart. Who knows which part is true and which is false? Actually, a Heart Demon oath is more reliable." Zhang Bufan stroked his chin and said playfully, "Don't you think Sister Liu's combat skills are very proficient? I have reason to suspect she's a 'thousand-man slayer', or even a 'ten-thousand-man slayer'."
Upon hearing Zhang Bufan's words, Senior Brother Chu's already softened expression immediately darkened. Yes, you can't see into a person's heart, and Sister Liu was very resistant to the Heart Demon oath. Thinking this way, Sister Liu was still deceiving him even at this point.
The more Senior Brother Chu thought about it, the angrier he became. He said coldly, "Junior Sister, if you have nothing to hide, why fear a Heart Demon oath?"
"You little brat, what are your true intentions? Why do you keep slandering me? Are you envious, jealous, and hateful because Senior Brother Chu has such a beautiful Junior Sister like me?"
Sister Liu hated Zhang Bufan to death now. If it weren't for him constantly fanning the flames, Senior Brother Chu, being a novice, would have been easily manipulated by her. Unfortunately, her hand was being held by Senior Brother Chu; otherwise, she would have struck with lightning speed and killed Zhang Bufan first.
Zhang Bufan was insulted and mocked by Sister Liu, but he wasn't angry, nor did he want to argue with a shrew like Sister Liu.
Sister Liu glared fiercely at Zhang Bufan, then deliberately swayed as if losing her balance, leaning against Senior Brother Chu, and said softly, "Of course I'm not afraid of a Heart Demon oath. I'm just sad that Senior Brother Chu, you would rather believe an outsider than me. If Senior Brother Chu truly doesn't believe me, then just kill me. At least I'll be content to die by your hand."
"Sister Liu, I only believe a Heart Demon oath now. I want you to swear a Heart Demon oath right now, immediately, or else don't blame me for being impolite to you. If I truly wronged you, I will apologize to you, and even marry you." Senior Brother Chu's expression remained cold; he just wanted the most truthful answer now.
"Senior Brother Chu, I, I, I... sob, sob..." At this point, and facing Senior Brother Chu's icy gaze, Sister Liu completely panicked. She knew the truth couldn't be hidden, but she still held onto a last glimmer of hope.
Sister Liu and Senior Brother Chu were both in the Fusion Realm, but she was only in the Middle Stage of the Fusion Realm, while Senior Brother Chu was in the Late Stage of the Fusion Realm. She was no match for Senior Brother Chu. If he knew about her past, Sister Liu couldn't guarantee that Senior Brother Chu wouldn't kill her directly, so she was testing Senior Brother Chu's resolve.
Senior Brother Chu had lost all patience. His long sword was pressed directly against her neck. He said coldly, "If you don't swear a Heart Demon oath, I'll kill you now. I just want an answer."
Sister Liu was trembling all over. At this moment, she finally understood Senior Brother Chu's resolve. To save her life, she stammered, "Senior Brother Chu, actually, I... I've only battled with a dozen men, not the 'ten-thousand-man slayer' that kid mentioned."
Senior Brother Chu's eyes were about to burst, and the anger in his heart could no longer be suppressed. He punched Sister Liu in the lower abdomen, sending her flying over ten meters.
"Pfft!"
Sister Liu spat out a large mouthful of blood, her face extremely pale. Although Senior Brother Chu's punch just now didn't kill her, it crippled her cultivation. She hadn't expected Senior Brother Chu to be so ruthless even after she confessed.
Actually, the reason for Senior Brother Chu's anger was not entirely that Sister Liu wasn't first blood, but that Sister Liu had been deceiving him all along, which he absolutely could not tolerate. He ended up with a worn-out shoe and was still supposed to be triumphant? Now, with a lush green grassland above his head, how could he not be angry?
If Sister Liu had confessed everything before battling him, giving him the choice of whether to battle or not, then none of this would have happened.
Senior Brother Chu glanced at Zhang Bufan, then turned and slowly walked towards Sister Liu.
Zhang Bufan felt that the Aura locking onto him had not disappeared, but he didn't care at all. Instead, he watched the two in the arena with interest.
"This Senior Brother Chu is so ruthless; he doesn't even spare his own Junior Sister." The System suddenly spoke.
"He probably can't accept that this Sister Liu deceived him, right?"
"Oh? How do you know?" The System retorted, then as if it thought of something, it continued, "That's right, you are all men. You definitely can't accept being 'green'."
"I am not like him." Zhang Bufan quickly defended himself, but his words sounded somewhat lacking in confidence. Putting aside this life, wasn't he the same in his previous life?
Although the worlds were different, if Zhang Bufan in his previous life had great strength and great economic power, what would have been the consequences if he had been 'green'ed?
