With his mind thrown into panic and facing imminent death, Bai Yun Feng suddenly snapped and shouted, “Yang Kai, I, your Father, will make sure you pay for this!”
“What the fuck is your problem!” Yang Kai cursed, extremely irritated.
“Hey hey…” Bai Yun Feng grinned and viciously retorted, “If it weren’t for you smashing the ground earlier, how could we have all gotten caught by this group of spiders?”
“If I didn’t do that how could you still be alive to whine about it now? All of you would have already been killed by Guo Yuan Ming and his gang already!” Yang Kai sneered, knowing that Bai Yun Feng couldn’t be reasoned with right now.
“This Young Lord is the first son of the famous Bai Family! Would they really have killed me?” Bai Yun Feng snorted. “As long as I had reported my true identity, they would definitely have taken me hostage to exchange with my Bai Family rather than murdering me.”
“Maybe you wouldn’t have died, but if Young Lady Qiu and Young Lady Luo had fallen into their hands… hah, I’m afraid they wouldn’t be able to hold on to their innocence anymore. I think that if they had been given a choice they would have still chosen to be stuck here in this spider sacks rather than being caught by those bastards.”
“Why should I give a damn about their innocence? I just want to live!” Bai Yun Feng roared loudly.
As soon as he had spoken these words though, he suddenly realized that it was not something he should have said out loud, suddenly becoming silent.
“Bai Yun Feng… I didn’t think you were so…” Luo Xiao Man’s sad voice softly echoed, an infinite amount of disappointment and disgust contained within it.
A woman’s purity was sometimes more important to her than her life. At that time, Luo Xiao Man would have gladly taken her own life rather than be humiliated if they had been caught by the Ash-Gray Cloud Evil Land brutes.
Qiu Yi Meng quickly followed up, “Everyone always values their own life the most Xiao Man, don’t pay him any mind!”
Her voice didn’t contain any fluctuations, neither sadness nor disappointment, just coldness.
“Facing death, it seems those from the Bai Family can only become cowards!” Luo Xiao Man sneered.
“Hmph, say what you’d like.” Bai Yun Feng snapped back, not showing the slightest remorse. He had already completely offended these two women now so even if they managed to escape from this place, although they wouldn’t immediately become enemies, he would never associate with them again.
Yang Kai and Shan Qing Luo on the other hand were silently watching each other.
After a long time, Yang Kai wrinkled his brow, “If you wanted to leave, you could have just gone now, and that Spider Mother doesn’t seem to have any intention to retain you.”
Shan Qing Luo slowly shook her head, “But if I left just now, you wouldn’t be able to leave with me.”
Yang Kai’s expression suddenly cramped before it became serious, and he hesitated for a while before continuing, “Our friendship doesn’t seem to be close enough for you to care so much about me, just like Qiu Yi Meng said, people always care most about themselves.”
Shan Qing Luo however just smiled back at him.
“You’re not serious about all this, are you?” Yang Kai’s brown slightly wrinkled.
“I told you before, a woman who possesses the Poison Widow Body will only ever love a single man for her whole life, when have I ever not been serious towards you?” Shan Qing Luo sighed faintly, “If it weren’t for you barging into my Knowledge Sea earlier I really would be too lazy to care about your life or death. Little bastard, you’re so shameless and lustful, I really should kill you so you don’t taint all the innocent girls you’ll meet from now on, but with things progressing as far as they have, I really don’t have any other choice anymore.”
Shan Qing Luo really couldn’t bear to watch him die, that is, unless she could accept her Secret Art never reaching the grand accomplishment stage! Since this feeling of love had taken root in her heart, it growing into an all-consuming impulse was just a matter of time.
Once her emotions reached a peak, she would need to spend her first night with her beloved man.
Moreover, a Poison Widow Body woman, once in love, would be far more sentimental and devoted than an average woman.
This made this family of women bearing a truly tragic existence.
On the one hand, there was the death of her one love, while on the other there was the grand accomplishment stage of their Secret Art.
Even if they abandoned cultivating their Secret Art in favor of saving their love, it would not stop the attraction and temptation from consuming them.
Han Fei Yan, Shan Qing Luo’s mother, experienced such a situation, where she one night lost control of herself and slept with her husband, only to wake the following morning from this drunken stupor to discover what had happened, spending the rest of her life in pain and regret.
Yang Kai’s face became extremely solemn, deeply staring into Shan Qing Luo’s eyes, seemingly wanting to see into the depths of her heart, hoping to read her true thoughts.
Shan Qing Luo simply smiled and without hesitating took the initiative to unlock her Knowledge Sea’s defense, whispering softly, “If you don’t believe me, see for yourself!”
Yang Kai, though surprised, didn’t hesitate, plunging his Divine Sense directly into her Knowledge Sea.
Inside, he once again witnessed the sight of an endless ocean.
Above this vast sea, an image of Shan Qing Luo sat softly upon the wind, gazing towards Yang Kai’s Divine Sense, gently saying, “Do not touch my image, it represents my Soul. If you do, the consequences will be disastrous.”
“I know,” Yang Kai acknowledged softly.
If two Souls were to blend, they would be able to taste sweetness more than a thousand times more potent than if they had intimately embraced one another, but if their wills weren’t stable enough, the only result would be them losing themselves in this feeling, instantly becoming idiots.
Yang Kai, of course, understood this so he paid special attention not to act recklessly.
Shan Qing Luo’s Soul avatar quickly waved its hand, sending a ball of light into Yang Kai’s Divine Sense.
Absorbing all the information contained within this light sphere, Yang Kai gained intimate insight into all the emotional experiences of this devilish woman along with all her thoughts about their relationship without the slightest omission.
He also saw and comprehended the effects her special constitution and Secret Art would eventually have, realizing their future destiny.
As these innumerable scenes flashed before him, it was so vivid that it was like he was living them himself.
After a long time, Yang Kai slowly withdrew from her Knowledge Sea.
As their eyes met once more, Shan Qing Luo smiled happily, “Now do you believe me?”
This time, Yang Kai nodded firmly, never imagining that the Secret Art of this seductive woman had such special effects.
Smiling wryly, Yang Kai couldn’t help asking, “Should I say I am honored or that I have bad luck?”
He had confirmed that her feelings towards him were not an act, but in the end it still resulted in her needing his life.
Shan Qing Luo’s face suddenly became a bit dark, whispering under her breath, “The women in my family do not really want to kill their beloved man, but sooner or later this impulse becomes unbearable, so no matter how far they separate themselves, they will eventually find their way towards him, and whether consciously or unconsciously they will give their innocence to him while at the same time taking his life!”
Although sacrificing one’s life for the woman they loved was a romantic thought, but in the end it that was simply rhetoric, when the time really came, no man would truly be happy about such a fate.
“Have you never thought about solving this issue?”
“Naturally I have thought about it, but I have no idea how to even begin.” Shan Qing Luo slowly shook her head.
“En, let’s not talk about that first.” Yang Kai nodded, a bit forlorn, not discussing the matter any further.
