190: Chapter 188: Guess Whose Man He Is 190: Chapter 188: Guess Whose Man He Is Baili An didn’t look back, just sucked on the rabbit energetically.
The little corpse demon looked intoxicated.
The little rabbit also had an intoxicated expression.
In the eyes of both the corpse and the rabbit, there seemed to be little stars twinkling.
Baili An spoke with a muffled voice, “Mmm, I’ve memorized and learned those two Breathing and Exhaling Techniques Wen Sister sent.
Even though I lack a sense of smell, I can still feign breathing.”
Fang Geyu was slightly shocked inside, thinking that those were the Breathing and Exhaling Techniques personally modified by Taixuan, difficult for ordinary people to understand.
He had been coughing and panting all the way, yet he had fully comprehended those two techniques?
Utterly incredulous, she let out two cold laughs, glancing at the white rabbit with its paws limply hanging down between Baili An’s arms, and curled her lip.
“Faking breathing, yet you can’t do it for real.
You really think you can exhale a flower?”
Baili An, biting an ear of the rabbit, replied seriously, “Would you like to take a bite too?”
As soon as he finished speaking, the mood of the rabbit in his arms changed dramatically.
It squeaked, holding its chubby face with two paws, looking sullen and unhappy.
Fang Geyu was taken aback, “Scram!
Do I look like the kind of juvenile person to you?
Speaking of which, don’t you have a deer?
Why don’t I see you sucking on the deer with such joy?”
Baili An said, “The deer is good, but it’s too big, the antlers too hard, the fur too short; hard to suck.”
He seemed to have a point.
Lin Yuan had been laughing so hard that he couldn’t stand straight.
Hearing the laughter, Fang Geyu suddenly came to her senses, feeling annoyed at herself for discussing such a childish and brainless topic with this brat.
Her fingers tapped impatiently on the desk, “Weren’t you saying you were hungry?
Eat first, I have questions for you after you’ve eaten.”
Baili An obediently drained the bowl of blood.
As Fang Geyu clumsily dressed her wounds, her brow was tightly knitted, “You shouldn’t have killed Ming Yuanji today.”
Lin Yuan looked surprised, “Weren’t you all about fighting and killing?
When the black card was thrown out, I was quite shocked; you actually got so angry for Si Chen to this extent.”
Fang Geyu rolled her eyes, hardly able to contain her anger, “Why would I be angry for that boy?
Ming Yuanji deserved to die, but even so, it shouldn’t have been him taking action.”
She is Shifang City’s esteemed jewel, although without any particular skills, her identity is her greatest strength.
A Cultivator at the Sea Expansion Realm, regarded as a genius admired by thousands, wherever they look.
Yet, to her, once the black card was issued, she could claim his life, even if it were her sworn brothers, they dare not defy the order, nor harbor any resentment.
Even if it’s the wilful nature of a young miss, being a member of Tiangge City, one can only carry out orders.
Therefore, Chai Ye taking action personally was the best course of action.
Baili An, however, said, “With the great examination impending, if you force Chai Ye to kill his own junior brother, even if he does not dare rebel, it will create resentment.
Now that you’ve lost a cultivator at the Sea Expansion Realm, if you pressured Chai Ye to kill him, you’d be left without anyone useful under your command.”
Lin Yuan was quite surprised, “Si Chen, did you kill Ming Yuanji because he made a sneak attack and wanted your life?”
Baili An turned his head and glanced at Lin Yuan with a smile, “If I resented him for wanting to kill me, I would find an opportunity to act on my own.
But as Fang Geyu said, Ming Yuanji deserved death.
Since that was the case, it’s better he died swiftly to avoid any unnecessary trouble.”
Fang Geyu withdrew her gaze from him, her eyebrows knitted, she was lost in thought as she looked at the flickering candle flame for a while.
Then she said calmly without emotion, “So who do you think was Ming Yuanji’s person?”
Baili An looked honest and simple, “I don’t know.”
Fang Geyu’s face showed a flash of frustration, “You kill without knowing anything!”
Baili An sighed, “I’m not a deity.
There are so many lives in this world, so many powerful forces, where do I, a corpse demon who just crawled out of a coffin, fit in to figure it all out?”
Fang Geyu looked at him with intense eyes.
Lin Yuan frowned, “What do you mean by that?
Was Ming Yuanji actually a spy sent by someone else?”
Baili An smiled at Lin Yuan, his gaze bright as he said, “Sister Lin Yuan, do you think it’s necessary to be in such a hurry to deal with all those strangers, those wastes of space, considering you’re a Guest Elder Cultivator in Tiangge City?
“Of course, those three remaining people also wanted to see me, with my low cultivation, make a fool of myself.
But with the big examination coming soon, will there be any shortage of opportunities for me to embarrass myself?
Everyone knows the rules not to overstep before their master’s young miss, but his audacity was extraordinary.”
Lin Yuan hadn’t considered this and looked complexly at the revelation.
Baili An stood by the window; outside, the sky was like thick ink spreading, dotted with sparse, azure-blue stars.
The sparse starlight moved across his clothes, giving him an air of otherworldly detachment.
He licked the residual blood at the corner of his pale lips; his black eyes, without a trace of joy or anger, spoke lightly, “What he wanted was Fang Geyu’s life.”
Fang Geyu’s eyes were slightly cold, but her expression was extremely calm, “That’s the norm.”
Baili An said, “But you mentioned, these four were personally selected by your father for you, that’s not normal.”
Suddenly, Fang Geyu narrowed her eyes, “What are you trying to say?”
“I heard that your two brothers are also participating in the heir’s grand examination.”
“You suspect my two brothers?” Fang Geyu’s expressionless face suddenly smiled, but the smile had an indescribable playfulness.
Baili An looked at her intently, “Don’t you already have an answer in your heart?”
Fang Geyu’s smile lost its usual sarcasm, and her emotions were indescribable.
“It’s not them, although the position of Xianling City’s City Lord is a power and wealth that thousands dream of, and it’s the same for my two brothers.
They fight each other, and it’s true they might do such a thing.
But towards me, their sister, they cherish me too much to do such a deed.”
Lin Yuan widened her eyes curiously; she’d known Fang Geyu for many years, but this was the first time she heard her voluntarily speak of her family’s matters.
She said, “If your two brothers care about you so much, then why the strife over the position of City Lord?
They might as well each step back and let you have it.
That way, it would also save them the trouble of brothers turning on each other.”
Fang Geyu was amused by Lin Yuan’s naïve comment and couldn’t help but reaching out to hook her snow-white chin.
She smiled ambiguously, “Little Yuan, your naïveté is really hard for anyone to dislike~ You see, love is love…
but even with blood relations, there are things you can’t concede or give away.”
Lin Yuan looked half understanding, then her face flushed slightly, and she turned her head to avoid her fingers, “Stop it, who are you calling naïve?”
Fang Geyu’s lips curved up, and with her hands poised like playful claws, she was about to continue her teasing when she was caught by a gaze and looked up.
Baili An stood at a corner window, his posture unchanged, like a docile and quiet little deer, his clear and profound gaze watching their frolicking.
This demeanor was vastly different from that of the boy who had just been letting the tiger out to feast.
