Chapter 440 - 440 You Can't Become Immortal
440 You Can’t Become Immortal
Liu Sanniang said without changing her expression, “You can’t become immortal. You’re full of sins and evil. You advised me to side with the crown prince, but my advice to you is to repent.”
When Hui Zhen looked at Liu Sanniang, the source of evil in her almost drowned Liu Sanniang.
In front of this evil source, Liu Sanniang was like a speckle, but she was a beam of light. No matter how insignificant the light was, it could not be ignored.
Hui Zhen looked into Liu Sanniang’s eyes and said with murderous intent, “Miss Liu, if you don’t want to support the orthodox, then you’re the heterodox. Don’t blame me for being rude to you.”
Liu Sanniang didn’t dodge Hui Zhen’s piercing gaze. “Be my guest, Master Hui Zhen.”
Hui Zhen gritted her teeth. She had clearly been driven mad. Liu Sanniang looked nothing different from an ordinary girl. But from her, Hui Zhen sensed enormous danger. If she didn’t get rid of Liu Sanniang, she would eventually pay a huge price.
Cultivators had an acute sixth sense that could not be ignored. A cold glint flashed across Hui Zhen’s eyes and she said, “Since Miss Liu insists, let me see what you are capable of.”
Hui Zhen retracted her gaze and picked up her chopsticks to eat the white tofu.
Without looking at Liu Sanniang again, she continued. “Miss Liu, I’m afraid you won’t be able to eat anything that’s marginally comparable to the food in Suzhai Pavilion in your life. Seize this opportunity. The food here is all filled with spiritual energy.”
Liu Sanniang stood up. “You know better than anyone what the food is really filled with.”
Eyes could be deceived. Seeing was not necessarily believing.
These ordinary-looking vegetarian dishes smelled fragrant and could nourish one with spiritual energy. However, Liu Sanniang only felt disgusted.
The food was all full of evil.
Liu Sanniang would never eat it.
Hui Zhen gritted her teeth. She wanted to erase Liu Sanniang right here right now, but she held back the urge. She was not someone like Miao Yin who would underestimate Liu Sanniang just because she looked ordinary.
Unless she had absolute confidence, she would not make a move.
Liu Sanniang turned around and left. She could feel that Hui Zhen’s gaze on her was extremely cold, like a poisonous snake staring at her. Without looking back, Liu Sanniang walked slowly out of Hui Zhen’s sight.
Hui Zhen’s face was terrifyingly dark. She had been cultivating for decades. Being pressed by her like that, ordinary cultivators could not remain so calm, but Liu Sanniang could withstand the pressure.
Hui Zhen stretched out her hand. Her other hand, which was hidden in her sleeve, was covered with black spots. These were the sins that she had accumulated. They would devour her cultivation bit by bit and could only be suppressed temporarily. If she could not suppress them, she might become a monster like Miao Yin.
She didn’t know why these black spots would appear on her body one after another, but she knew that Liu Sanniang must have something to do with it.
Hui Zhen slowly ate the vegetarian food with her chopsticks. The food was filled with spiritual energy. Many high officials were fighting to get a chance to eat it, but Liu Sanniang said it was filled with evil. What exactly was she to be able to see through it?
Liu Sanniang walked to the room where Chu Yan was staying. He opened the door just in time. He held her hand and squeezed her palm.
She and Chu Yan walked out together. When they reached the stairs, a few people came out. They all looked satisfied.
They looked even more high-spirited than when they came out of the brothel.
Su Yanyu saw Liu Sanniang immediately. He was present at the prayer meeting and saw Miao Yin turning into a monster and being killed by Liu Sanniang with his own eyes. Liu Sanniang had changed drastically compared to when he saw her in River Village. Although Su Yanyu was condescending and arrogant, he knew that he could not afford to offend her.
Liu Sanniang was far different from other psychics.
Su Yanyu wanted to curry favor with Liu Sanniang. He immediately put on a bright smile. “Miss Liu, you’re here to eat too? It seems like this restaurant is a treasure trove. It even brought you here. The food here is not bad, right?”
Su Yanyu only wanted to please Liu Sanniang. He did not care if he had been disrespectful to her before. Those were all things in the past.
Liu Sanniang looked at Su Yanyu and sized him up.
Su Yanyu smiled foolishly. “Miss Liu, don’t take what I did in the past to heart. I was out of my mind and stupid. The food in Suzhai Pavilion is top-notch. I’ll pay the bill for you today as an apology to you. Let’s write off everything that happened before, alright?”
Su Yanyu was famous for being a hooligan. His sister was a favored consort in the palace, so he was not afraid of anything. The fact that he tried to please Liu Sanniang made everyone else dumbfounded.
“Lord Su?”
The man beside Su Yanyu had a complicated expression. They did not know what to do.
Their family backgrounds were much worse than Su Yanyu’s, so they couldn’t enter the prayer meeting. They only heard from Su Yanyu later about what happened and didn’t see it with their own eyes. Everyone acted like they were surprised and amazed as Su Yanyu recounted the event just to please Su Yanyu.
When they really saw Liu Sanniang, they thought that Su Yanyu had exaggerated the story because he was interested in Liu Sanniang.
Su Yanyu said with a beaming smile, “Let’s go, Miss Liu. This meal is on me. Miss Liu, you know who I am, right? I live in the Marquis Su’s mansion. Feel free to come and look for me.”
Liu Sanniang replied lightly. “The food is not edible.”
Su Yanyu smiled foolishly. “I knew it. Suzhai Pavilion is the best in the world…”
His smile suddenly froze as he realized what she had said. “Not edible?”
Did he mishear it? The food here was more delicious than any delicacies he had ever eaten. It was so refreshing that it made him feel rejuvenated. How was it not edible?
Liu Sanniang nodded. “If Lord Su believes me, don’t eat it. Otherwise, you’ll be tainted by sins. The loss is more than you can gain.”
Su Yanyu couldn’t smile anymore. “Miss Liu, you’re joking, right?”
Su Yanyu felt that Liu Sanniang was teasing him on purpose because he did not leave a good impression on her back then. He looked at Liu Sanniang carefully, hoping to see the gratification and pleasure of taking revenge in her expression.
However, Liu Sanniang did not look any different than usual. It was as if she couldn’t even remember what Su Yanyu had done back then. She was just reminding him about it out of kindness.
The man beside Su Yanyu frowned and said, “Miss Liu, who are you to say that the food here is not edible? The food here is obviously clean. Why is it not edible? I think Miss Liu has something against Lord Su.”
