Chapter 397 - Solving the Problems (1/2)

Wang Ling's words stopped the two, they looked at him and nodded, ”Thank you for informing us but we know.”

”The qi each of us possesses are incompatible with one another but the Third Elder had us dual cultivate to satisfy her curiosity. The Yin in our body is malicious and eating us from the insides.”

Wang Ling raised his brows as the three of them resumed their steps, ”So you knew that you were going to die. That's rather insightful of you.”

”We knew, but we did not know the exact timeframe.”

”For that, we thank the Grandmaster for letting us know.”

The two of them thanked the one who just told them the time of their death. It was a weird one but with this knowledge, they'll be more than prepared and would not be grasping on airs. The two were now even more prepared.

But Wang Ling wanted to know something, ”Did you know you that one of you can live if one of you drank the blood essence of the other?”

They flinched but they did not stop their steps.

”I do not plan on doing such a thing.”

”Dying or betraying the one who stayed by my side when no one came to our rescue would be worse than death.”

The two servants moved closer to one another as though afraid without the other. Wang Ling saw this and smiled. He did not think they would actually know, he smiled, thinking, [How adorable, these two lovers are ready to die together. It's not often you see people like that.]

But what was even more fascinating was that, despite the malicious qi in their bodies, their mind wasn't corrupted, rather, it was pure, [Their affection is genuine and they are dependent on each other's company. Seeing their reaction to my words one of them will surely kill themselves tonight to collect their own blood essence. And considering how they are acting, they might just unknowingly commit double suicide.] chuckling, Wang Ling was impressed.

He was originally good at reading people, but after his second life, Wang Ling got even better. He could now see plenty of scenarios.

Following the two his mind raced. They reached a building in some garden guarded by two guards of the Qi Cloaking Realm, at the sight of the two girls, they creased their brows.

”What is that you want now?” one of the guards irritated and asked.

The war of the Lopus Family and Star Seeking Sect had lasted for months on more than one occasion these two went to the battlefield and killed people from the Lopus Family.

Thought their number wasn't that large because they were more focused on reconnaissance. They killed three to a dozen. They were known as the Twin Shadows of the Sect.

The two were infamous in their own rights, thus they are not viewed by others with favorable eyes. But the disregard the two show for the hate they receive only makes it all the more infuriating for others. Due to this fact they come across as condescending just because the disciple of the Grandmaster was being them.

The guards who often see them are the ones who get subjected to those pair of ”contemptuous” eyes thus the pair were viewed with irritation.

Like always the two servants did not care for much and was about to speak of their intentions for coming. But then, before they could even speak Wang Ling already interjected, ”I am here to see the Family Head, open the doors.”

”Who is this disrespectful young m—”the guard's face went pale as he took a closer look at Wang Ling's white robes,” We apologize for showing a distasteful sight to the Grandmaster.”

The white robes were nothing special, it was made of ordinary premium silk but other than that it looked like any other scholarly robe. However, that was a single fact that the guards picked up, that it was a simple scholarly white robe.

A week prior an edict was given to the entire city, for the next two years wearing a white robe was prohibited inside the Sect's premises. The reason for this edict was simple – so that none would unknowingly disrespect the Grandmaster.
