Journey to the End of the Night

Chapter 1677 - 1007: Our Fangs Can’t Be Held Back Anymore (Part 2)

Baili An watched with a gloomy expression, his gaze at that moment seemed to pierce through her: "This presence is..."Qin Muqing brushed a hand over her eyelids, and her pupils immediately returned to being bright and black.

Her smile carried a hint of pride: "Years ago, when Lord Xue fell, she leaped from the Snow Tower, her body torn by the Astral Wind into endless dust and fragments.

Even when Fang Geyu found her mother, only a ground of remnant scarlet dust remained, no bones.

The ashes danced in the wind and snow as if untouched by the wind, uncollectable.

Withered in the depths of the Snow Tower cliffs, collecting her mother’s ashes almost froze her to death with no gain, a futile effort."

"When everyone thought Lord Xue had fallen into annihilation, it was my mother.

In the land of the Boundless Ice Sea, she accidentally picked up Lord Xue’s Immortal Essence Spirit Core."

At this point, Qin Muqing’s expression revealed an undeniable pleasure:

"So it is said, fate is the most ironic thing in this world. Even though Fang Geyu gave up half her life to collect her mother’s corpse, Lord Xue’s Immortal Essence fell easily into my mother’s hands."

Listening to her mocking, self-satisfied little voice, Baili An’s bones tingled with a bloody shiver.

His face remained calm with a cold smile: "An Immortal’s Immortal Essence is akin to a human’s heart, the most vital organ core.

Lord Xue was the daughter of the Lord of Zhonghua Immortal Mansion, her Immortal Essence differed from ordinary people. Had it been taken to the Central Netherworld Dynasty during the three years of the annihilation of her Immortal Body,

asking the Empress of Central Netherworld to spiritually nourish it with the Soul Awakening secret technique, there could be a sixty percent chance of resurrection.

At the very least, throwing this Immortal Essence into the Six Paths could reincarnate, reborn as mortal, and continue the cultivation journey.

It’s been over a decade since Lord Xue’s fall, this Immortal Essence nourished in your body, I’m afraid it’s already been assimilated by your mortal aura.

Whether resurrection or reincarnation, it’s no longer possible...

Lord Xue provided you and your mother with superior repose, shelter, granting rights and glory.

In return, it’s treachery after requital and complacency."

His voice suddenly lowered with a heavy tone, his eyes filled with somberness: "This affair... is truly extremely interesting."

Qin Muqing looked at Baili An meaningfully, covering her lips as she laughed: "Master Ji has such anger, could it be pity for Miss Fang?"

Baili An said indifferently: "Occupying Lord’s Immortal Essence, it is death penalty!

If this matter spreads, you and Qin Lou’s steward would likely be executed without escape, also accused of plotting love with an Immortal, it would be intolerable to the world!

At that time, you couldn’t even be Miss Qin Fourth, on what grounds do you think you have the qualification to negotiate terms with this young master."

"Master Ji speaks not without reason." Qin Muqing smiled gracefully, "Yet if not for sincerity in befriending, I certainly wouldn’t have revealed all my secrets.

If Master Ji wishes to expose, you certainly can. Yet during these years, Lord Xue’s Immortal Essence has long merged with me, if I die then the Immortal Essence extinguishes, isn’t that wasteful?"

Her gaze lightly shifted, then she continued: "But if Master Ji thinks from another angle.

If you abandon Fang Geyu and choose me instead, helping me seize the position of City Lord of Shifang City, you and I could enjoy the glory of the Six Realms.

In time, I could also bear for Master Ji a lineage of Shifang blood, a lineage possibly surpassing Fang Geyu.

With the Immortal Essence of the young girl, combined with your Six Paths Divine Talisman, why worry about not being able to stand above the Three Sects someday.

Moreover, we can have our future child apprenticed to Kunlun.

If they inherit the Shifang bloodline, they would surely be favored by the Empress like Fang Geyu.

All of these benefits and opportunities, Master Ji should carefully consider."

Baili An laughed coldly, repeatedly: "It sounds convincing, yet bearing the crime of stealing an Immortal’s Immortal Essence, the young lady doesn’t find the risk too great, do you? Trying to pull this young master into the mire, quite the clever calculation."

Qin Muqing laughed charmingly, openly admitting: "Without such calculation, the young lady wouldn’t qualify for the young master’s negotiating table."

"Those who wish to achieve great things should not be constrained by trifles. We were born humble, adhering blindly to the rules only means being crushed by those truly destined for greatness.

If Master Ji truly wishes to favor Fang Geyu, this young lady naturally has nothing to say.

Still, one wonders if Master Ji has thought of how arrogant and dismissive Fang Geyu is.

Though her appearance is beautiful, she’s full of sharp thorns, harming herself and others.

A young lady accustomed to being high above, no matter how well you treat her.

Such a young lady does not understand tenderness, nor possesses any sense of fun. Unlike the young lady..."

Qin Muqing gracefully rose, her eyes swirling with a gaze as gentle as spring water, cheeks rosy, walking delicately step by step towards Baili An.

As if completely forgetting the bitterness experienced earlier, her waist swayed like gentle waves.

Her body bent low, and with a seductive tone, she softly said:

"Mature charm, but such a young girl can’t satisfy the young master."

"In front of the young master, the young lady can be wholly charming and obedient, gentle and submissive."

"I lack even the slightest of the arrogance aspect found in Fang Geyu."

"If Master Ji is willing... you may freely train this body of the young lady."

"Mature charm?" Baili An ignored the light breath in his ears, softly laughing: "It seems Miss Qin Fourth is quite confident in her own body?"

Qin Muqing was naturally confident, in terms of seductiveness and charm, no one in the entire Shifang City could compare.
