918: Chapter 918: That’s How the Grudge Began 918: Chapter 918: That’s How the Grudge Began Upon hearing this, Jian Shen looked at Lin Xi with an incredulous expression, even his gaze towards her was sowhat inexplicable and unfamiliar.
And Xue Lang was even more astonished, never in his dreams had he expected Lin Xi to plead for rcy on his behalf.
Jian Shen was full of question marks and naturally asked, “Why?
Why do you want to spare him, you should know what he’s done, how much blood is on his hands.”
“I know, I know all about it, but please believe , Xue Lang cannot die now.” Lin Xi looked earnestly at Jian Shen, and after a mont of serious contemplation, he withdrew his precious sword from Xue Lang’s body.
Seeing this move by Jian Shen, it was clear that he had decided to spare Xue Lang, which made Xue Lang himself feel incredulous, that even after all that had happened, he could still survive.
“You two!” Xue Lang was puzzled and even thought this was a conspiracy.
Lin Xi stepped forward and asked, “How many of you vampires from the Western Blood Clan have co this ti?
Please answer my question honestly.”
Upon hearing this, Xue Lang seed to understand and he chuckled coldly, “So you’re keeping alive to worm information out of , huh?
Well, I just won’t say, what can you do about it?”
Seeing Xue Lang’s uncooperative attitude, Lin Xi shook her head, “A village within my jurisdiction was attacked by vampires, but you weren’t there, were you?
So this ti you ca in two groups, one by sea straight to the Central Plains, and another by land, from the borders into the Central Plains.
Is there still another group of you?”
Xue Lang was taken aback, then smirked lightly, “You found out, yes, aside from us, there’s another group.
I believe they must have already stepped into the Central Plains from the borders, but I also don’t know where they are.”
“There’s still another group?” Jian Shen was worried, the Martial Arts community in the Central Plains had suffered great losses and there were hardly any masters left.
It would be very difficult to deal with a second group from the Western Blood Clan.
Lin Xi pressed on, “Tell , what exactly are you coming to the Central Plains for?
You shouldn’t lack for anything, right?”
Xue Lang refused to speak, but Jian Shen interjected, “According to what Devil Incarnate said, Xue Lang wanted the Devil Cult’s help to find sothing more valuable than gold, silver, and jewels, but I can’t think of anything more valuable than those.”
Lin Xi nodded, “That’s right, if it was for gold, silver, and jewels, wouldn’t they have enough of that in their own place?
Why go to the trouble of coming all the way to the Central Plains?”
Power and wealth, these are the things most people in this world pursue, and they are also seen as the most valuable things in the eyes of ordinary people.
But the Xue Clan doesn’t lack these things at all, do they?
In her past life, Lin Xi had also been an empress, and from the perspective of an empress, having power and wealth, what more would she want?
“Wait a minute, could it be…” Lin Xi looked at Xue Lang with a horrified expression and loudly questioned, “It’s immortality, isn’t it?
You’re searching for immortality, because although you vampires can live forever, this kind of eternal life is flawed; you must drink blood and fear the sunlight.
So you want to obtain true immortality, that’s why you’re in the Central Plains searching for the Eternal Life Clan.”
Hearing the four words “Eternal Life Clan,” Xue Lang was startled, and in turn looked at Lin Xi with an interrogative gaze, “How do you know about the Eternal Life Clan?
Do you know where they are?”
Jian Shen was also curious, “Qian Ye, what exactly is the Eternal Life Clan?
I’ve never heard of it before.”
Lin Xi explained it like this, “I only heard it from others, the Eternal Life Clan has always been pursuing immortality; they are a very mysterious group, too bad I’ve never seen them.” After saying that, Lin Xi curiously sized up Xue Lang and asked another question, “Very few among us in the Central Plains know about the Eternal Life Clan, how do you Western Blood Clan know about them?”
“This…” Xue Lang shook his head, then let out a self-deprecating laugh, “I’m sorry, I’m just an insignificant little character within the Blood Clan, how the higher-ups ca to know about the Eternal Life Clan is beyond .”
“Alright, I won’t make things difficult for you.” Having said that, Lin Xi targeted Xue Lang’s wound and cast a spell, placing a curse.
Xue Lang felt sothing strange and panicked, “What have you done to ?”
Lin Xi smiled faintly, “You have blood on your hands, I can’t just let you go so easily, therefore, I’ve cursed your wound.
Although your injury will heal, the scar will always remain, and it will cause unbearable pain at regular intervals.”
Xue Lang was furious, “You wretched woman, how dare you curse !
Lift it right now, or else don’t bla for being rude.”
Lin Xi was unmoved, “In your current state, you have no power to threaten .
Moreover, lifting the curse does not depend on , but on yourself.”
“What, on myself?” Xue Lang was puzzled, not understanding what Lin Xi ant.
Lin Xi continued to explain, “If one day you, Xue Lang, turn away from evil and beco a good vampire, then this curse will be lifted.”
Upon hearing this, Xue Lang was taken aback, then he couldn’t help but burst into hearty laughter, “What, you actually believe that we creatures who thrive on human blood can one day turn away from evil?
How naive can you be?”
After being said so, Lin Xi also felt that she was quite foolish, but there was no helping it, that’s how the mysterious masked man had put it.
“Let’s go,” said Lin Xi, not wanting to stay any longer, feeling embarrassed by the mockery.
Just as Lin Xi and Jian Shen had taken a few steps away, the curse that was placed on Xue Lang took effect, causing him so much pain he rolled on the ground, feeling as though he was being cut by a thousand knives, so much so that it was unspeakable and Xue Lang even thought about ending his own life.
“My god, I have to endure this pain every day?
What a vicious curse,” Xue Lang watched Lin Xi’s departing figure with intense hatred, then shouted, “Your na is Qian Ye, right?
Rember this, one day, I will make you pay, I won’t forget the humiliation you’ve given .”
Jian Shen frowned; he was worried and did not like soone threatening his beloved woman.
He thought it would be safer to go back and finish off Xue Lang.
Lin Xi, on the other hand, thought of sothing.
She reassured Jian Shen, then she turned back, smiling at Xue Lang, “That’s right, I won’t change my na or my seat, I am Qian Ye.
If you can’t accept it, co find when you are strong enough to settle the score, and I will welco you ssing up my plans.
Rember this face, rember the na Qian Ye, you must rember it.”
“Rest assured, I won’t forget even if I die,” Xue Lang gritted his teeth in hatred, etching Lin Xi’s image deep into his mind.
For hundreds of years after that, every day that Xue Lang was tornted by the curse, writhing in extre pain, he would rember detestable Qian Ye, truly unable to forget even if he wished to.
So when Xue Lang once again ca across Qian Ye, he was thrilled, for he finally had the opportunity for revenge.
