Eternal Life as False Emperor

Chapter 485: Chapter 384

Even though she already suspected what Su Yao was going to say.

But when the words came out, Bai Zhirui’s mind still went completely blank.

Actually, it wasn’t just Bai Zhirui, even Zheng Yi was utterly shocked.

"Holy crap, this woman really does have a problem."

Zheng Yi discovered the truth slightly earlier than his disciple.

But not by much.

After Su Yao said that she and Lin Feng weren’t in that kind of relationship.

Zheng Yi instantly understood everything.

Why whenever Lin Feng talked to Bai Zhirui, Su Yao would forcefully insert herself.

Why she reacted so strangely when Bai Zhirui used the Kunyi Hairpin to escape underground and caught both her and Lin Feng’s hands.

At that time, Zheng Yi thought Su Yao was just purely jealous, not wanting Lin Feng to get too close to Su Yao.

Now it seems, it was indeed jealousy.

But the inside story was completely different from what he imagined.

Su Yao, that woman,

Heavens have mercy.

Before transmigrating, Zheng Yi was undoubtedly a virgin.

He was even the kind who had never held hands with a girl, a complete Xiaobai.

After transmigrating, although he had experienced and seen all sorts.

But his experience with real romantic relationships was still pitifully shallow.

If someone with more experience, maybe they could have seen the problem.

But Zheng Yi, he truly hadn’t noticed anything amiss.

"Su... Fellow Daoist Su, please don’t joke." Bai Zhirui’s voice trembled.

They were about to have a life-or-death battle with the Nether Spirit Race cultivators.

How unexpected it was that Su Yao dropped such a bombshell at this crucial moment.

Alright.

Rather than a surprise, it was more of a shock.

She was completely bewildered!

"Sister Bai, I understand it’s hard for you to accept all at once..."

Ever since she had Zheng Yi as her personal mentor, Bai Zhirui’s mind hadn’t spun as quickly as it did now.

She had no choice; her mentor had been pretending to be dead for a long time, not responding to any of her cries for help.

"Fellow Daoist Su, please calm down. I think this matter should be discussed with the elders of the sect."

Bai Zhirui hoped to use the sect to bring Su Yao back to reason.

Unexpectedly, Su Yao’s eyes brightened when she heard this: "So if the sect elders have no objections, Fellow Daoist Bai, can you accept me?"

"Rest assured, our sect does not prohibit..."

"My master, the Sect Leader of the Star Sea..."

Bai Zhirui felt as if her worldview was being repeatedly rubbed on the ground by this sect called Star Sea.

No wonder Su Yao was so strange, it’s all because of the influence from above.

"Uh... uh..." Bai Zhirui’s eyes darted around, desperately thinking of a reason to reject.

After all, unlike Su Yao, she was just an ordinary woman.

Su Yao suddenly stepped forward and hugged the helpless Bai Zhirui.

"Sister Bai, I know you might not be able to accept it. Originally, I hoped to get closer to you slowly so you’d understand my feelings."

"Unfortunately, I have no time left. I don’t want you to never know my affections even in death."

If she didn’t know Su Yao’s thoughts, as fellow female cultivators, a hug was nothing.

But now...

Bai Zhirui’s skin prickled with goosebumps, layer after layer.

As if a body-freezing technique had been cast on her, she dared not move at all.

Noticing her reaction, Su Yao quickly released her grip.

"It feels much better after expressing my thoughts."

"Even if I really die in battle later, I won’t have any regrets."

After saying that, she turned and walked away quickly.

Leaving Bai Zhirui standing there, wanting to cry but unable to.

"What a mess this is."

Zheng Yi chuckled: "Actually, it’s not so bad. You could try it too, who knows, maybe you’ll find you really like women?"

Bai Zhirui glared: "Master, now you know how to make sarcastic remarks, why didn’t you save me earlier?"

Zheng Yi quickly coughed a few times: "Ahem, just now I had some minor matters to attend, don’t mind those useless details."

After all, he was a transmigrator, even if he hadn’t seen it personally, he’d heard of it through various means.

He didn’t feel it was such a big deal.

However, for Bai Zhirui, the scene that just unfolded brought her shock comparable to the impending battle.

After being unsettled, Bai Zhirui quickly adjusted her emotions and said seriously: "Master, is there really no other way?"

Zheng Yi shook his head helplessly: "At this point, all we can rely on is our fists, as for other strategies... it’s not that they’re useless, just that they have limited effect."

Bai Zhirui persisted: "How about like earlier, throwing out the White Lotus Magical Artifact they value as treasure, causing them to fight among themselves?"

"No." Zheng Yi rejected this suggestion without a second thought.

"We’ve tried that tactic before. The opponent surely must have prepared in advance."

"If I were them, I would certainly inform everyone that the enemy used fake artifacts to provoke the Nether Spirit Race cultivators into infighting, ultimately causing them to be wiped out."

"Then take a vow not to touch the treasure. Once we obtain the artifact, we can collectively decide a fair distribution plan."

After several suggestions were shot down by her mentor as worthless, Bai Zhirui couldn’t help feeling a bit dispirited.

"This doesn’t work, that doesn’t work, are we really just waiting to die?"
