Is this woman here to piss him off on purpose?
Otherwise, his heart which had stayed calm for nearly a hundred years wouldn’t be bouncing because of what she said.
Of course she had pissed him off!
“May I see the spell to refrain you?” Xia Liang said, “I am not here to chitchat with you. I am here to save you.”
“I don’t need you to save me.” Jun Wuqing calmed his bouncing heart.
“Sure. I know.” Xia Liang nodded.
According to the storyline, Jun Wuqing would finally degenerate to an evil man and broke out. He didn’t need her help, of course.
But she had to save him now, which was kind of against his will.
“Since you know, why are you here?” Jun Wuqing was interested in her answer.
It had been two hundred years that he hadn’t had such a strong desire to talk with someone.
He couldn’t stop talking more since he suddenly had a company. After all, life was really boring here alone.
And one of the reasons was, maybe, that he couldn’t understand her.
As a control freak, he cared a bit more about something or someone he couldn’t see through.
Thinking for a while, Xia Liang answered, “Do you care if your sect is ruined or not? Or if your fellowmen are locked up to be tortured because of you? Do you bear hatred because of it?”
“Why would I care? Why would I hate? As you said, they are too weak. They can’t blame someone else.”
Jun Wuqing said calmly with an evil smile on his lips. His god-like face was surprisingly beautiful with that smile as if it was supposed to be like that.
He was supposed to be decent and noble with a big heart. As the head of immortals, his responsibility was to protect his fellowmen. He was supposed to be true, kind and beautiful.
Besides, the world’s view about him and his fellowmen’s worship were the evidence.
However, what he just said was brutal as if he cared nothing about human life.
And his smile was evil, nothing like a kind man who had a big loving heart.
He was nothing true, kind or beautiful.
Any other man but Xia Liang would be shocked by his words and his smile. They might think it was either he was mad or they were mad.
Xia Liang, however, believed what he said right away and nodded to agree. But she frowned because she was thinking.
Jun Wuqing thought she felt offended by his words or disappointed by how indifferent he was.
Thinking of this, Jun Wuqing was disappointed too.
Boring!
He thought she would be different.
Otherwise, he wouldn’t reveal both his true side and evil him. It turned out that she was no different from those mediocre people.
Jun Wuqing chose to close his eyes and never talk to Xia Liang again. Xia Liang, however, frowned but soon her face brightened with joy.
It happened so quickly that her facial expression didn’t change at all.
Jun Wuqing intrigued by her again like a kitten was itching his heart. He wanted to know what she was up to.
It may be not that boring.
“Are you trying to figure out if I am kind or not? Are you doubting if I am qualified or not to be the head of immortals because I am a hypocrite?” Jun Wuqing tried to mislead her.
He leaned toward Xia Liang until his pretty face was two centimeters away from Xia Liang. Xia Liang could even feel his breath on her face.
It was warm and a little itchy.
Xia Liang stepped back away instinctively. Beautiful things were always tempting. Even the cold-hearted Xia Liang could feel her heart beating fast.
She thought he was had a pure heart but it turned out that he was evil and heartless.
“Come on. I am listening.” Jun Wuqing was aware that she was embarrassed. Then he smiled and leaned back to the wall.
“I don’t care about your nature. It has nothing to do with me. All I care about is that you are the real Jun Wuqing.” She said.
Jun Wuqing was amused when she said the first sentence, and then shocked when she finished. He stared at her and for the very first time, he got serious.
Xia Liang didn’t see it because her head was hung down. Even if she did, she wouldn’t tell the change on his face.
Xia Liang was struggling with pulling up language to persuade Jun Wuqing to help her kill Xia Yu. Although she was smart, obviously it was a mission impossible for her, because she had nothing to give now.
And if she lied, Jun Wuqing wouldn’t buy it because his presence was a lie. He could see through everything with that pair of sharp eyes.
Xia Liang had a feeling that she might have a chance if she told the truth.
Xia Liang clinched her fingers and tried, “I can get you and your fellowmen out of here. In return, you should help me kill Xia Yu. I know you don’t need my help and you don’t care about your fellowmen. I don’t know how to convince you to do me this favor. So I am still thinking.”
Jun Wuing got even more interested and asked, “why do you look kind of happy?”
Xia Liang was startled and answered after giving it a thought, “You won’t degenerate to an evil man if you bear no hatred. I think it’s great. So I am happy.”
Jun Wuqing’s hand trembled on hearing her. How did she know that he was hiding the thought to cultivate evil skills?
A long silence followed.
Jun Wuqing looked at her and suddenly said, “You can ask me reason and conditions.”
Xia Liang’s eyes were brightened and asked him, “Thank you! Can you tell me what I should do so that you can help me?”
Jun Wuqing’s heart bounced again when he saw her bright eyes. This time, he was not outraged. He was amazed by how cute she was.
