Chapter 356: Chapter 356: The Bottle Points to Her Three Tis in a Row
Typically, the more gossipy and controversial the “truth” questions set on these cards, the more interesting they beco.
Everyone present basically knows that Lu Sheng is currently with Li Muchen. So, the question posed is whether, besides Li Muchen and her five brothers, has Lu Sheng ever thought about other n at night.
This question definitely has explosive potential.
Clearly aiming to stir things up!
Thus, Teng Yue read out the question, and everyone imdiately looked at Lu Sheng with curious and gossip-hungry eyes, waiting for her response.
When Lu Sheng heard the question, she was also montarily stunned.
Besides lovers, family mbers, and male celebrities, has she thought about other persons of the opposite sex in recent half a year?
…Indeed she has.
She has thought about Ning Yu at night, more than once.
The deepest part of Hell is called the Netherworld, which is like a mysterious forest in the darkness, with the crimson Wangchuan River flowing through it and various plants and animals that lack self-consciousness.
If the animals and plants of the Netherworld absorb enough Evil Qi, they can transform into Demons. Once they beco Demons, their soul can travel to the Human Realm, and as long as they find a human body compatible with their soul, they can reincarnate.
However, not all Demons are the sa. The strength of a Demon largely depends on their Essence Stabilizing Pill.
The Essence Stabilizing Pill is a transformation of the Evil Qi absorbed in the Netherworld, containing the most basic power of a Demon and also acts as a container to enhance Soul Power in the Human Realm.
Firstly, the basic power of the Essence Stabilizing Pill depends on the origin of the Demon.
For example, Demons born from plants have Essence Stabilizing Pills that can mostly influence plants. For instance, Lu Sheng was originally a rose in the Netherworld, capable of turning any ordinary plant into a rare one.
This ans, if Lu Sheng still had her Essence Stabilizing Pill when she first arrived in Jiang City, she would not need to ask ng Lin to spend fifteen million to acquire Red Ginseng to present to Li Muchen.
She also wouldn’t need to accept Tang Yiyi’s challenge to compete in equestrian skills over a re Lingxi herb.
As for Demons born from animals, they generally possess the ability to manipulate animals. Since animals can run, fly, make sounds, and perform tasks, Demons of the animal type are generally stronger than those of the plant type from the very beginning.
Secondly, the Essence Stabilizing Pill is a container for enhancing a Demon’s Soul Power in the Human Realm.
With an Essence Stabilizing Pill, whether harming humans or causing humans to admire them, the increased Soul Power is stored within the Essence Stabilizing Pill. Soul Power only continues to accumulate over ti making their power increasingly stronger.
But without an Essence Stabilizing Pill, even if a Demon absorbs a lot of Soul Power temporarily, it will gradually dissipate over ti, weakening as they cannot store and utilize it. This is also why Lu Sheng’s Soul Power drastically decreased during the over two months she was confined to her ho recovering from a fracture.
In other words, if not for Lu Sheng accumulating so many connections and admirers in her past two lives, each admirer possessing a large gathering of human adoration, after each reincarnation, she would lose an admirer periodically.
If Ning Yu had not stolen her Essence Stabilizing Pill before she ca to the Human Realm, she would likely be weaker than a typical human right now.
—Ning Yu.
The last ti Lu Sheng knew his whereabouts, he had deceived her into fighting an underground boxing match for him at THE DEEP.
After winning the boxing match, Ning Yu disappeared without a trace, and since then, there had been no news of him. For the past six months, Lu Sheng has been paying attention and searching for any trace of him, but to no avail.
So, it’s not just at night she thought of him; Lu Sheng even dreamt about Ning Yu once.
In her dream, she turned him, this Clam Spirit, into his true form and roasted him over a fire, reminiscent of a fishmonger who has been emotionlessly slaughtering fish at the market for ten years.
—
“…Yes.”
Paused for a mont in front of the coffee table, Lu Sheng then lifted her eyes and answered.
Like Lu Youye, she does not want to lie. Lying would sap all the aning from this ga.
When Lu Sheng admitted she indeed thought about n other than Li Muchen and her brothers at night, everyone else present was extrely shocked.
Even Lu Youming was montarily stunned.
Lu Youye next to Lu Sheng even gasped, instantly filled with a sense of crisis; he grabbed his sister’s hand and began to question her frantically.
“What? Shengsheng, did you really secretly think about other n? Who is this man, and what is his relationship with you? It can’t be a brother from before you ca to Jiang City, right?”
…A brother from before coming to Jiang City?
Is he worried about soone like that affecting his own position?
Fifth Brother’s thinking is always so bizarre.
“I’ve already answered this question,” Lu Sheng said without changing her expression, flicking Lu Youye’s forehead to remind him, “It’s your turn to spin the bottle, brother.”
The only rule of the ga is to answer the questions on the cards. Since the card simply asks yes or no, that’s indeed all you need to answer.
Seeing this, Lu Youye could only suppress his curiosity and stand up to spin the wine bottle.
However, coincidentally, the wine bottle stopped and pointed towards Lu Sheng again.
Lu Sheng didn’t think much of it.
It’s normal for the bottle to point to the sa person consecutively, especially since it hadn’t pointed to her even once before. It’s just like the shifting winds of fortune.
Lu Sheng still chose Truth, and thus drew another card with a question from Teng Yue’s hand.
The question this ti was: [Who is the person you hate the most so far and what did they do?]
This question…
Lu Sheng fell silent for a mont.
She didn’t really hate anyone.
People like Lu Qianrou, Fu Siya, Fu Chen, Tang Yiyi, despite them harboring malice and using all sorts of sches against her, she never truly regarded them as rivals or even noticed them.
In her eyes, they were rely inconsequential ants, or perhaps re jesters.
Hating soone ans they’ve affected and stirred your emotions, which ans you care.
So to truly speak, the only one Lu Sheng could ever say she hated, was Ning Yu.
“The person I hate the most… was a friend I t before I ca to Jiang City, or at least soone who used to be a friend.”
Lu Sheng lifted her eyes and said, “I used to trust him, but he stole sothing very important from when I let my guard down.”
“Ah, sothing important was stolen by soone considered a friend?” Chen Li couldn’t help saying, “How can soone be like that, it’s too much!”
The people around echoed in agreent, while Huo Yu remained silent.
Though Huo Yu was usually reserved, tonight, his silence seed even more pronounced.
It seed he was not at all imrsed in the ga, and from start to finish, his eyes were only on her.
Deep and profound, as if harboring so hidden emotion.
Wondering if it was an illusion, Lu Sheng felt that Huo Yu’s gaze at the mont even carried a sort of fervency.
Suddenly, an idea popped into Lu Sheng’s head.
This thought, or rather suspicion, the mont it erged, made Lu Sheng take a deep breath.
“It’s my turn to spin the bottle next, right—”
As if completely unaware of Lu Sheng’s gaze, Huo Yu at this ti raised his hand towards the beer bottle in the center of the coffee table.
Lu Sheng intently watched the bottle.
The bottle spun rapidly at first, then the spinning slowed down, and finally, it weakly stopped.
This ti, the bottle pointed at her again.
Three tis in a row, it pointed to her again.
This almost confird Lu Sheng’s suspicion.
At that mont, her eyes trembled, and she sharply looked at Huo Yu.
With an expression only the two of them could understand.
anwhile, Huo Yu seemingly didn’t notice, and just looked towards Teng Yue: “Lu Sheng will probably still choose Truth, let help her draw a card.”
Saying so, Huo Yu naturally reached out to Teng Yue and drew a card from his hand.
“I’ll read this question,” Huo Yu directly looked at the card’s question, raised his eyebrows.
Looking deeply at Lu Sheng, his gaze carrying an indiscernible playfulness, his voice deep.
“The question this ti is, if you could have soone appear in front of you right now, who would you want it to be?”
