272: Suru Canary

Chapter 272: Su Ru, The Canary

"Su Ru, just settle down here and rest assured."

"The room on the second floor is already tidied up, and food and water are all prepared."

"As for the future..."

Speaking of this, Su Han's tone was full of playfulness, "I, your Shizhi, will come to see you often!"

At this moment, Su Ru suddenly heard Su Han calling her "Su Ru," and her heart pounded. She subconsciously tightened her grip on the corner of her skirt.

"Damn it! Why did this little thief suddenly change how he addresses me?"

"Before, he always called me demon woman without hesitation. Did he detect something?"

"No, I must remain calm and not reveal any flaws."

Thinking of this, Su Ru took a deep breath, suppressing the unease in her heart. She tried her best to make her expression appear calm and indifferent, and spoke coldly, "Su Han, have you forgotten?"

"I am not your Su Ru."

Su Han's lips curved slightly upward, revealing a meaningful smile.

He tilted his head slightly and teased, "Demon woman, I naturally know."

"But you are currently wearing Su Ru's face, and I don't think you will easily tell me your real name, so I am too lazy to ask."

"But, I have to call you something, right?"

"Should I keep calling you demon woman?"

Su Ru secretly breathed a sigh of relief when she heard Su Han's reply, "So that's how it is."

At this moment, the stone in her heart temporarily fell.

"Thank goodness, thank goodness, it wasn't exposed."

However, as if she thought of something, she suddenly straightened her face again, looking coldly at Su Han, a hint of imperceptible displeasure flashing in her eyes.

"You call me Su Ru. You don't have the same thoughts about your Shibo as you do about your Master, do you?"

When Su Han heard this, a playful smile appeared on his face, and a hint of teasing was revealed in his eyes, "To say I don't... is definitely false."

"After all, Shibo, with your appearance, how many people in the entire Qingyun Sect can compare?"

"Whether it's your voluptuous figure or your gentle charm, you are someone that is hard to forget once seen."

Listening to Su Han's praise, a hint of joy involuntarily arose in Su Ru's heart. After all, what woman doesn't like to hear good things?

Even though she knew Su Han's words might just be teasing.

But before she could fully immerse herself in the praise, Su Han's words took a turn, "It's just a pity..."

"My real Su Ru is already a wife, and Ling'er's Mother."

Saying that, Su Han looked at Su Ru, "Therefore, I am just calling you Su Ru, but it doesn't mean you are Su Ru, understand?"

"As you wish."

Su Ru heard this and spoke coldly, "Call me whatever you like."

Since her identity wasn't exposed, Su Ru was too lazy to say more to this 'little thief'. Her heart was in turmoil right now.

After all, too much had happened from last night until now.

She just wanted to be quiet.

Immediately, she turned around, not wanting Su Han to see her complicated expression at the moment, "If there's nothing else, you can leave."

Su Han nodded when he heard this, his tone still playful, "It is indeed time to leave."

"But Shibo, don't worry, I will come to 'visit' you often and won't let you be 'lonely'."

With that, Su Han walked towards the door with leisurely steps. The deliberately drawn-out 'visit' and 'lonely' made Su Ru's back stiffen slightly. She subconsciously clenched her fists.

Her heart was flustered and shy.

However, very quickly, Su Ru no longer had the energy to think about these things.

She only heard Su Han leave one last sentence...

"And now, I think Ling'er should be looking for me."

Immediately, he turned into a white light and disappeared into the Cave Heaven.

"Ling'er?"

And at this moment.

Su Ru stared blankly at the place where Su Han left. Hearing him mention her daughter's name, her originally cold cheeks could no longer remain expressionless.

A slight blush appeared.

In her mind, she couldn't help but recall everything that had happened from last night until just now with Su Han.

Her heart was full of panic.

"Just now, I, as his Mother, helped him..."

"Now he's going to see his daughter. He won't make Ling'er give him..."

Su Ru didn't dare to think further and desperately shook her head, trying to shake off these terrifying thoughts, while constantly comforting herself.

"In broad daylight, such a thing shouldn't happen."

Despite this, her heart was still restless and uneasy.

However, very quickly, Su Ru stopped struggling and breathed a sigh of relief.

Because she was finally out of Su Han's sight.

This also meant that she was finally free!

"As long as I cut off the connection with this Puppet, everything that happened before will be a dream, a dream that no one else knows about except myself!"

Thinking of this.

Su Ru took a deep breath, then closed her eyes, trying to cut off the connection between her main body and this Puppet.

In the past, such an operation was a piece of cake for her, given her Shangqing Realm cultivation.

But at this moment.

Su Ru was surprised to find that no matter how hard she tried, the 'thread' connecting her main body and the Puppet remained motionless.

"How could this be?"

Su Ru's eyes snapped open, filled with disbelief and panic.

She closed her eyes again and tried, but the result was still the same.

Su Ru's heart rate suddenly accelerated, and an unprecedented fear gripped her heart tightly.

She began to look around, her eyes filled with vigilance and doubt.

It was only then that she realized that the aura and rules of this world were vastly different from the world she originally belonged to.

"Is it because the Laws of this Cave Heaven world are completely different from the original world?"

Su Ru murmured to herself.

"How could this be?"

"Could it be that this Puppet of mine is going to become a 'canary' kept in this Cave Heaven world by Su Han?"

"As long as he wants to, he can come and play with me anytime and anywhere?"

The more Su Ru thought about it, the more panicked she became. She tried to cut off the connection again, but the only response was repeated failure.

"No, I can't be trapped like this!"

A hint of determination flashed in Su Ru's eyes. She decided to try to commit suicide.

She rushed towards the wall, thinking of destroying this Puppet body to escape this terrible predicament.

However, just as her body was about to hit the wall, a ray of light flashed, and a powerful Formation instantly rose up, gently bouncing her back.

"Has Su Han already thought of this?"

Su Ru looked at the Formation in the distance, her eyes full of helplessness.

Then, she gritted her teeth and tried to sever her own Meridians.

She concentrated her Spirit Energy, gathered it at her fingertips, and fiercely pierced her Meridians.

But the next second, she found that there were no Meridians in this Puppet's body at all.

She tried to harm herself again, attempting to use the Spirit Energy within her body to destroy this Puppet's body.

She mobilized all the Spirit Energy in her body, letting it rampage wildly inside, but she quickly found that this amount of Spirit Energy was simply not enough to cause any substantial damage to this Puppet's body.

"Hanging herself, starving to death?"

These thoughts flashed through Su Ru's mind, but she quickly realized that this was simply a fantasy.

After all, this was just a Puppet and didn't need to eat in the first place.

Unless Su Ru's main body actively cut off her Divine Sense, destroyed the Puppet's head, or Su Ru's main body died.

Su Ru had just tried the first two methods, and both resulted in failure.

And making her main body die?

If she really wanted to die, she would have done it long ago, so why would she wait until now?

At this moment, Su Ru slowly collapsed to the ground, staring at the ceiling.

"This Puppet of mine has actually become a 'canary' raised by my Shizhi..."
