Chapter 394 - Daily Life in a Demon Sect (4) (2/2)

“Ms Wu Zheng?” Bai Luo called out. No one answered.

She hesitated for a moment before gathering up her courage and opened the door.

She only made it a couple of steps inside before a dark figure suddenly flashed in front of her, causing her to startle and retreat back, her heart thumping wildly.

Shi Sheng had jumped over the wall. Seeing that there was suddenly someone else here, she was very surprised too, so she examined the intruder.

‘Why is FL-sama here? Isn’t the ML dying?’

“Jiejie? It’s you?” Once Bai Luo made out Shi Sheng’s features, surprise and excitement gleamed in her eyes.

Shi Sheng, “…” ‘It was so dark then, yet you could see me(bbb) clearly? FL-sama, do you secretly have a crush on me(bbb)? What’s with that excited look…? I’m not into yuri!’

“How’d you get in?”

Bai Luo blinked and pointed at the courtyard door, explaining in a small voice, “The door wasn’t closed ah.”

‘Eh? I(bbb) didn’t close the door? Forget it, that’s not important right now.’

“Why’re you here?” ‘FL-sama, why have you run over to my place instead of accompanying your beloved?’

“I…” Bai Luo suddenly felt nervous. ‘Is this Jiejie really Ms Wu Zheng?’

She took a deep breath before asking cautiously, “Jiejie, are you Medicine Granny’s disciple?”

Shi Sheng looked Bai Luo up and down a few times with an odd look before nodding. “I guess so.”

‘Wu Zheng is. I’m not.’

Bai Luo’s eyes shone as if someone had put jewels in them. “That’s wonderful! Fu-dage’s been poisoned, but the physician doesn’t know what type of poison it is. Jiejie, can you help take a look at it?”

Bai Luo’s tone turned pleading towards the end. She also hurriedly added on, “I can pay you!”

Shi Sheng, “…”

‘You want me(bbb) to treat the ML? Has your brain been kicked by a mule? You’re lucky I(bbb) haven’t poisoned him further!’

Though how did Fu Yiyun get poisoned? I don’t remember this being in the original storyline… It got derailed again?’

“Jiejie, what do you want? As long as I can do it, I’ll definitely help you out!” Bai Luo grew anxious with Shi Sheng’s silence.

‘I want Fu Yiyun’s life; can you help out with that?’ Shi Sheng rolled her eyes. “You should get a physician to see to poison. Why’re you looking for me?”

“The physician said…he doesn’t know what kind of poison it is. He said Jiejie might know, so…” Tears dripped out of Bai Luo’s eyes. “Jiejie, what will it take for you to look at Fu-dage?”

‘Hey hey now, don’t phrase it as if I’m an asshole who’s abandoned someone… Pay attention to your words.’

“Jiejie, I’m begging you.”

“Why should I?” Shi Sheng gave her a smile that wasn’t quite a smile. “Why should I help you?”

Bai Luo stared at her dumbly, crystalline tears still clinging to her long eyelashes.

Shi Sheng’s lips rose slightly into a malicious grin. “Besides, haven’t you heard the rumours?”

Bai Luo stuttered, “W-what?”

“I only kill people, not save them.”

Though the woman was smiling, Bai Luo couldn’t see a hint of ripple in her eyes, merely calmness. Her words echoed in Bai Luo’s mind.

I only kill people, not save them.

Little Fairy: I want votes!

Shi Sheng: I don’t have votes… Do you want some skulls instead?

Little Fairy: [trembling.jpg] My daughter’s really violent… What should I do? SOS pls

Shi Sheng: Isn’t the reason I’m this violent because you let me?

Little Fairy: …My fault again.
