318: Chapter 318 Cao Kun: Is there really such a good thing?
"She must have compromised and sacrificed her purity to please you, this Devil Head, just so I could find Xiao Chen sooner and fulfill that damned condition!"
"You rely on being the Son of the Plane, holding the power to track people, to threaten and force Sister Xue to submit! You are no better than an animal!"
A sense of justice and guilt churned violently in her chest.
Guan Linger puffed out her chest, although the buttons of her maid uniform were stretched to the breaking point.
Yet, she still struck a pose of facing death unflinchingly.
"This is my own Karma to begin with! Why should Sister Xue bear it for me!"
"Cao Kun, whatever evil tricks or despicable methods you have, bring them all on me! I will take them for her!"
Cao Kun stood where he was, almost unable to hold back a laugh.
Damn, that is absolutely brilliant!
This girl's ability to imagine things is truly wasted if she doesn't write novels.
With such airtight logic, even he, the mastermind, almost started to reflect on himself after hearing it.
He almost questioned whether he was really the ultimate villain, heinous and unforgivable, forcing a pure female cultivator with brute force!
However, since the prey insists on diving into the net itself.
Then he could only accept it with a smile, following the will of heaven.
Cao Kun went with the flow, raised his hands, and clapped rhythmically.
"Clap! Clap! Clap!"
The crisp applause sounded exceptionally harsh in the quiet room.
"Good! What a display of sisterly love!"
"Since Fairy Linger is so self-sacrificing and eager to endure the torture for Fairy Murong."
"If this Young Master were to refuse, wouldn't that seem unfeeling?"
Murong Xue became anxious upon seeing this.
The misunderstanding had gone too far!
This was not a Flying Boat heading to the Spirit Realm; she wanted to get off.
Murong Xue poked her head out from behind Guan Linger, her face flushed red, wanting to explain clearly:
"Linger, you really misunderstood! Young Master Cao just wanted me to look at his precious sword earlier! He didn't do anything else!"
However, Cao Kun had already anticipated this move from her.
The moment Murong Xue pushed him away, he had already retracted the chaos divine sword into his Purple Mansion.
Hearing Murong Xue's explanation, Guan Linger widened her eyes suspiciously and scanned the room.
On the table, on the floor, on the bed.
Where was any sword?!
She didn't even see a piece of scrap iron!
She turned her head in grief and indignation, looking at Murong Xue, tears streaming down uncontrollably.
"Sister Xue, stop lying to me! There is no sword in the room at all!"
Guan Linger sniffled, her voice choked with sobs.
"I know you have been coerced by this Devil Head, to the point where you have to make up such lies. You have suffered!"
"But don't worry, Sister Xue, with me here, I will never let him bully you again!"
Murong Xue: "???"
She couldn't explain herself, so anxious that tears were about to fall.
It's over, the more she tried to clear things up, the worse it got.
Now she really couldn't clear her name even if she jumped into the Boundary Sea!
Where did this silly girl's usual cleverness go?
"Young Master Cao! Take out the sword! Explain it clearly to Linger!"
Cao Kun spread his hands, revealing an extremely innocent and helpless expression on his face.
"Explain what? This sword of mine recognizes its master and is only shown to those destined to see it."
"Fairy Linger was calling me an animal and a Devil Head just now. If I were to take the sword out and show it to her, wouldn't I be lowering my own status?"
Murong Xue finally understood now; Cao Kun had intentionally hidden the sword!
This man is too devious!
What on earth does he want to do?
Seeing that Cao Kun couldn't produce the sword and was still making excuses, Guan Linger became even more convinced of her suspicions.
"Cao Kun, let Sister Xue go, and I'll stay!"
"You can do whatever you want, I, Guan Linger, will submit to your disposal!"
"Oh? Is that so?"
Cao Kun deliberately drew out his voice, stepping closer to Guan Linger step by step.
"Whatever I want?"
"Torture can be very grueling. Are you sure your delicate body can withstand it?"
Guan Linger subconsciously wanted to retreat, but thinking of Murong Xue behind her, she gritted her teeth and stood her ground.
As long as she could endure the humiliation from this Devil Head, she could find Xiao Chen and lead Sister Xue out of the sea of misery!
She took a deep breath and closed her eyes.
"Cut the crap! I, the Divine Maiden of the Guan family, will never go back on my word! Use whatever tricks you have!"
Cao Kun turned to look at Murong Xue, who was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan.
"Fairy Murong, you heard her too."
"Since Fairy Linger has already agreed, please step outside."
"This Young Master is going to have a deep exchange with Fairy Linger."
How could Murong Xue leave!
If she left, Guan Linger would definitely suffer tonight!
Although she wanted to befriend Cao Kun, one thing was one thing.
She couldn't watch Linger jump into the fire pit by herself.
"Young Master Cao, stop joking with Linger!"
She grabbed Guan Linger's hand, wanting to take her away.
But the stubborn Guan Linger forcefully shook off Murong Xue.
"Sister Xue, don't try to persuade me anymore! My mind is made up!"
"You go quickly, don't worry about me!"
Murong Xue was pushed out of the room by Guan Linger.
"Hum!"
A layer of pale golden barrier instantly closed, completely cutting off sight and Divine Sense detection.
Murong Xue stood in the corridor; the last scene she saw before the barrier closed.
Was Cao Kun stepping closer to the unflinching Guan Linger, and frivolously lifting her smooth chin.
Murong Xue stood frozen in place, feeling somewhat at a loss for a moment.
The cold night wind blew past, calming her brain, which had been heated by shyness, a little.
Connecting everything that happened tonight into a line, the more she thought about it, the more she felt something was wrong.
From her running over to find Cao Kun in the middle of the night because of her overactive imagination.
To her finding an extremely lame excuse to stay and look at the sword to cover up her awkwardness.
And then to Guan Linger eavesdropping outside and misunderstanding, bursting in to stage a scene of sisterly love.
Finally, Cao Kun using the ruse against them, going with the flow to lock Guan Linger in the room and driving her out.
Everything happened too fast, and too smoothly.
Every step linked to the next; this was definitely not a coincidence!
She felt that she and Guan Linger were completely just two pieces of prey that had voluntarily jumped into the trap.
Cao Kun, this cunning wolf, hadn't even unsheathed his claws, just watching them wash themselves clean and deliver themselves to his mouth.
The most absurd part was, until the moment the door closed.
Linger was still kept in the dark, fully believing she was sacrificing herself to save others, blocking disaster for her!
"Young Master Cao's methods... are too terrifying."
"Not only is he decisive in killing, but his methods of manipulating people's hearts are also extraordinary!"
...
Inside the room.
A lone man and a woman were in the same room, and the atmosphere seemed extremely delicate.
Guan Linger was panicking inside, her heart pounding in her chest.
But she still forced herself not to admit defeat, lifting her snow-white neck and striking a pose of righteousness.
"You Devil Head, stop dawdling! Whatever lewd methods you have, bring them on!"
Guan Linger closed her eyes tightly, her eyelashes trembling uncontrollably.
Looking at her nervous appearance, Cao Kun laughed out loud.
This girl really thought of herself as some chaste Saintess.
He withdrew his hand that was lifting Guan Linger's chin and turned to walk slowly back to the rocking chair.
"Since Fairy Linger is so enlightened, this Young Master will arrange a simple task for you first to warm up."
