If I can help her get through this temporary difficulty, judging by her performance, she won’t kill the donkey after the grinding, and I can gain quite a high degree of friendship with her.
This is a life-saving grace for a Demigod ranked 69 on the Earthly List, it’s a benefit that ca straight to .
Even if Shui Longyin tells ten thousand lies, the fact that she concocted such a story to gain my trust ans at least one thing is true—her situation is really very dangerous.
However, she managed to co to for help, so perhaps all she needs is a bit of protection, helping her avoid so minor harassnt, like purchasing so necessary healing herbs or sothing?
Speaking of which, why doesn’t she ask the other Demigods in Bai Yujing for help?
They have conflicts internally, so she absolutely cannot expose her whereabouts, otherwise, she would truly be hunted?
It’s possible... She confessed all this, as if she’s not afraid I might take advantage of her vulnerability to rob her, she must have enough confidence to deal with even at her weakest...
So the best choice for now is to offer so help and earn a bit of goodwill here.
Of course, I still have to assess whether the situation is dangerous; I wouldn’t want other Demigods hunting her down and getting involved, that would be quite troubleso!
...Xu Shu’s eyes darted quickly, soon calming down.
After assessing the situation, he made a decision, lowered his voice, and played along with Shui Longyin’s clumsy lie: "So it’s him! Sigh, didn’t you say earlier that you didn’t know much about him?"
"That’s right, it’s him!"
Shui Longyin nodded repeatedly, trying to cover up her tracks, "Indeed, I’m not familiar with this Expert, I also don’t know whether he wants to help or harm , but my situation was truly critical at that ti, I had no other choice. Haha, luckily, seeing you puts my mind at ease, I know this Expert still holds so good intentions towards , seems like I’m really fortunate!"
Upon saying this, Shui Longyin let out a breath, her deathly pale face forced out a hint of blush, and the absentness in her eyes sparkled with dazzling starlight.
Her deanor vividly transford into a neighbor girl in distress seeking help, seemingly full of hope towards Xu Shu, entrusting all her hope and fate to him.
’Tsk tsk, such acting skills, who would’ve thought looking at you with thick eyebrows and big eyes, you’d be an Oscar-worthy actress!’
Xu Shu nearly couldn’t hold his expression, barely suppressing the upward curve of his lips into a smile.
A mont later, he declared with conviction: "Alright, Tai Chu has aided , and we have so camaraderie, now that you’re injured as well, I absolutely can’t stand by, rest assured, I will definitely help you!"
"Thank you so much then." Shui Longyin sweetly smiled, looking at Xu Shu with newfound interest.
"How do you need to help you?" Xu Shu asked.
Shui Longyin, holding her hollow broken body, said: "First of all, I need you to help find the missing organs of this body and put them back as soon as possible, it’s very important to ."
"Can they be restored?" Xu Shu was surprised.
Shui Longyin said: "Yes, once found, they can grow back."
Xu Shu marveled, thinking that a Demigod indeed cannot be bothered by re mortal wounds.
He turned and grabbed that "Doctor" Yuwen.
Seeing Xu Shu constantly talking to what appeared to be a reanimated corpse, Yuwen felt like he had lost his mind, exclaiming in terror: "My lord, my lord, spare my life! Let off, I was coerced by them!"
Coerced?
Why didn’t you feel coerced when you were indulging in won in the basent?
Xu Shu smirked, ignoring his pleas, instead pointing to Shui Longyin’s corpse and asked: "You perford the surgery on this body, right? Are those organs still present? Can they be found?"
"Yes, yes, they were just processed this afternoon, they’re still stored in the cold storage." Yuwen quickly replied.
"Consider yourself lucky, take to find them, and I’ll let you live." Xu Shu said.
Yuwen’s eyes lit up, as if he received amnesty: "Thank you, my lord, thank you for sparing my life!"
While speaking, Xu Shu grabbed him by the neck like a chick, packed Shui Longyin’s body into a sack, one in each hand, and walked towards the door.
Before leaving, Xu Shu paused slightly at the doorway, took one more look at the others present, and finally his gaze settled on Hou Yong.
He didn’t say much, just revealed a aningful smile, and quickly vanished into the night.
Not long after, the other people on the scene tried to escape the web but failed, and began persuading Hou Yong one after another.
So tried through friendship, like Yang Gang, who gritted his teeth and said: "Ah Yong, I was the one who introduced you when you joined, we are brothers made by blood, closer than real brothers! Have I let you suffer over the years?"
So appealed to reason, like the renowned scholar Lao Xiang, who earnestly advised: "Xiao Hou, listen to , that lord is clearly ntally unstable, take this chance to set everyone free, we will escape together, otherwise you will also face certain death."
And so tempted with lust, like Sister Ao Xue, struggling to reveal her milky whiteness, her tearful eyes said: "Brother Yong, one night as husband and wife owes a hundred days of grace, please let your sister go, won’t we live happily ever after together?"
Despite the round of persuasion, Hou Yong was not swayed in the slightest.
He looked around and calmly said: "Enough, bla your misfortune for your predicant, while I’m fortunate enough to have influential help for an introduction, to get ashore first, in the future, I can even earn rits as an informant! As for you, if you want to survive, I advise you to confess honestly, I won’t keep any secrets for Voodoo."
