Capítulo 1345: Chapter 1345: Mutual Exploitation
Looking at the sweet smiles on the corners of Shuiyue and Jinghua’s lips, Luo Yang’s heart was filled with mixed emotions.
He was deceiving them, yet they believed him.
But eventually, the lie would be exposed.
When that day cos, if Shuiyue and Jinghua are still alive and learn that Luo Yang had deceived them, they would probably be very unhappy.
A month’s deadline, neither too long nor too short.
Luo Yang had thought, if he could obtain one Blood Devil within a month, he would take Shuiyue and Jinghua and escape far from the Skull Fortress.
That way, he could consider it as rescuing Shuiyue and Jinghua from dire straits.
As for the whereabouts of the second Blood Devil, he could find a way to inquire from others.
The problem was, if he failed to secure the Blood Devil within that month, things would beco tricky.
Watching them suffer, he couldn’t bear it.
Considering Lord Bao’s extrely cruel ways, she might kill Shuiyue and Jinghua.
Even if not killed, it would be as good as death, perhaps even more terrifying.
Therefore, Luo Yang was racking his brains over this issue.
Shuiyue and Jinghua were also eager to complete the mission, which prevented him from thinking clearly.
He said, “Sister Yue, Sister Jing, we are on the sa side. Don’t treat as an outsider. Understand?”
After listening to Luo Yang, Shuiyue said, “Sotis we doubt whether you truly want to save us. If you ignore us in the future, then won’t we just be killed by Lord Bao?”
Luo Yang had thought about this question.
If the situation beca too critical, he might indeed ignore Shuiyue and Jinghua.
Currently, Luo Yang’s skills and strength were above average but not at the top.
He didn’t have the capability to confront the Eight Immortals Hall directly.
If he were to fight against Lord Bao, he couldn’t defeat her either.
Thus, Luo Yang’s desire to save Shuiyue and Jinghua might be beyond his ability.
Speaking the truth often hurts.
Luo Yang had to opt for pleasant words, saying, “Sister Yue, Sister Jing, we’re all our own people. Why worry so much?”
He wanted them not to worry too much.
They kept pondering over these questions and asked him, which bothered him as well.
Speaking the truth would cause them pain.
Moreover, he first needed to appease them, otherwise, if they wholeheartedly worked for Lord Bao as her spies, it would be very disadvantageous for Luo Yang.
Jinghua sneered, “Easy for you to say! Do you think we enjoy worrying about these things? It’s not like you don’t know that Lord Bao could kill us anyti. If you’re not sincerely trying to save us, then we won’t help you either.”
Right now, only Luo Yang could give them a few more days of life.
“Sister Jing, Sister Yue. Rest assured. I will fully protect you,” Luo Yang said.
Saying this out loud, he also felt guilty.
Sotis lying doesn’t make one feel better.
After all, he was a young man who valued loyalty and righteousness.
Shuiyue said, “I think you should first help Lord Bao obtain the Blood Devil, then speak well on our behalf, so we can survive.”
This was indeed one possible solution.
The problem was, Luo Yang also needed the Blood Devil, how could he possibly give it to Lord Bao?
He chuckled coldly in his heart and persuaded, “Sister Yue, you don’t need to teach . To save you, I would even reach up and pluck the stars from the sky. A re Blood Devil is nothing. Just assist with the tasks at hand. If Lord Bao asks about my whereabouts, be sure not to tell her the truth.”
His biggest worry was that they would speak insincerely and tell Lord Bao the truth, which would be disastrous for him.
As of now, it seed they hadn’t betrayed him yet.
Otherwise, Lord Bao would have already sent soone to call him to see her.
There was no reason she would let the matter go unchecked.
