"What does... His Highness an?" The Asura Princess asked with a stuffed breath.
Continuing to suppress her, Lith replied, "Do you think I covet the Asura treasures?"
Lith then shook his head, as if he was tired dealing with a fool.
The Asura Princess had a clearly shocked look on her face. Her brain went into overdrive as she tried to make sense of the current situation.
’What? He doesn’t want our treasures?’
The Asura Princess didn’t know whether Lith was ignorant or simply acting haughty.
Who in their right minds would not want the treasures of the Asuras?
They were a long standing powerhouse, the second ranked in the world for heaven’s sake!
The Asuras weren’t even from this realm. Naturally, this ant that they had a lot more secrets and treasures of the Upper Realm with them.
This man was throwing it away all like that?
Did he not want to ascend realms and go further in the path of cultivation?
He really was a fool!
The Asura Princess blinked rapidly as she stared at Lith.
Lith stared back at her with a blank expression.
"Please... let explain about our treasures..."
Lith shook his head again. "This is your second mistake. You thought that by giving an offer I couldn’t reject, you had the conversation in your palms."
The Asura Princess visibly frowned.
Lith couldn’t bother to look at her anymore and let her go.
He walked in front and leaned by the edge of the table, facing her.
A cup of tea appeared in his hand.
Taking a sip, Lith continued, "I quite liked the part when you said you’d offer your heads. If only you hadn’t followed it by asking to break a sweat and break your curse and also go as far as to leave a successor."
Lith smiled and shook his head.
The Asura Princess did not know why, but she felt a sudden bad premonition as if her life’s worst disaster was about to befall her.
Lith put the teacup down and placed his hand on the Asura Princess’s head. He gently caressed it and said, "Your plans were reckless but thoughtful. You did well in trying to contact and give an offer, but unfortunately..."
In Lith’s eyes, ancient sigils manifested and spiraled into the abyss of his pupils. The color of regal athyst changed to a deep crimson.
The Asura Princess’s head was buzzing. She felt her hair stand on their ends and she really wanted to run away now!
The danger was here!
The absolute worst that could happen would happen now!
"Noooooooo!" The Asura Princess scread.
Lith patted the girl’s head and said, "Don’t be so noisy."
Before the Asura Princess could scream again, her eyes rolled back as her mouth began frothing.
A beauty like herself was reduced to a very disgusting state in a matter of seconds.
Lith looked at her with eyes of pity. "Unfortunately, I do not wish to see you guys happy after breaking your curse. I also am not satisfied with you leaving a successor. I want each and every one of you dead."
It seed like Lith was conversing normally but his tone had a surprisingly chilling effect. The ones listening could feel the deep resentnt and grudge that he bore.
Fei and Sylvia were silently watching. The master of theirs had beco a lot more cruel and unyielding.
If he bore a grudge, he would not be tempted by riches or beauties and give in.
Their master was growing both physically and ntally.
It looked like a shackle of his had co undone with the present situation.
The two continued to watch him with interest while Roy was on the verge of pulling his hair.
There was nobody who knew of the Asuras better than him at this mont.
The treasures the Asura possessed were boundless! They could not be found anywhere in Shen Ze and were very very rare!
He couldn’t understand Lith’s line of thoughts. He gave it all up just like that? What was he thinking?
The ones around Lith felt the Asura Princess’s life force draining away.
She was dying.
Lith had his hand placed on her head while his eyes were closed. He was going through her mories.
Lith had four abilities he inherited from his mother. One of which was [Psych Puppetry].
This ability allowed him to read one’s mind and turn them into a puppet.
To soone like the Asura Princess who had a higher cultivation, it was difficult to make her into a puppet. However, she ca to the enemy camp and offered herself to them on a golden platter. How could anyone not make use of this opportunity?
She was an idiot to think that the enemy would be swayed if she sealed her cultivation and offered everything in exchange for a slight hope for the future.
If it was anyone else, they might’ve not given up on such an offer.
War was cruel and nobody wanted to suffer casualties and losses. If a war could be won without much effort, who wouldn’t relent?
Unfortunately, the Asura Princess failed to understand that Lith was slicing them with a borrowed knife. None of the personnel involved were his own people. He couldn’t care less about the deaths of the Evure God Clan mbers.
Lith also had many beauties by his sides. Tempting him with bodily pleasures was another stupid mistake.
Whether it was wealth, power, or authority, he lacked nothing.
His thirst for revenge would not be quelled unless he brought the two clans down with his own hands.
Every single person involved in his grandparents’ death will have to die!
Through [Psych Puppetry], Lith extracted a lot of useful information from the Asura Princess’s head.
It turned out that his grandfather’s na was Kalyndor and he was the current King’s brother.
The King had personally ordered his execution and no Royal objected to it, as if it was a given that falling in love with an outsider was an offense punishable by death.
Eventually, Lith learnt a few more things and at last understood that it was the Asura Queen’s wish to seek Lith’s help in removing their curse.
The Princess was just a ssenger.
Lith scoffed. ’You did not object when grandpa was put on trial. You did not have an ounce of remorse and neither did anyone else. With such an attitude, you thought I’d help you if you offered your heads?’
Lith put his hand away from the Princess’s head.
The last remaining life force did not seep out. She had her life intact.
Lith went back to his seat and took a cup of tea in hand, watching the Asura Princess.
She stopped frothing and her eyes returned to normal.
There was a sowhat blank look on her face as if she was under hypnosis.
"Go back and relay the information that I’ve agreed to remove your curse."
Lith snapped his fingers and the blank look disappeared from the Asura Princess’s face, as if she was back to normal.
The Asura Princess expressed a sudden surprise at the sudden agreent and said, "I knew His Highness could be trusted. I’ll relay the information now!"
The Asura Princess stood up, bowed, and left the round table.
Except Lith, everyone watched her with a dumbfounded gaze.
Just a mont ago, she looked like she was going to die, then she seed as if she was under mind control, but now... she was completely normal?
Everyone turned to look at Lith.
’What’s he trying to do?’
