Chapter 90: Bai Lu: You Are the Chosen One, and the Only One!
"This is…"
Shi Nian's nightmare soul skill indeed had some depth.
Zhu Zhuqing only felt her mind grow sluggish.
The surrounding environment receded like a tide and then reassembled, transforming into the forest clearing where she first met Bai Lu.
Ahead, Bai Lu's figure slowly appeared.
"Bai…"
The girl felt a moment of relief and instinctively wanted to call out, but the words got stuck in her throat.
Because on that familiar face, there was none of the usual warmth or playfulness.
Only coldness, disgust, and disdain.
"Bai… Lu…? What's wrong with you?"
The girl asked softly, but silence was the only response she received.
Suddenly, three stunning women with completely different styles walked out from the mist.
"Zhu Zhuqing, you didn't expect this, did you? The man behind you has already been conquered by me!"
Qian Renxue hooked her arm around Bai Lu's left arm, her brows filled with the pride of victory.
"Zhu family girl, you dared to refuse my offer to become my disciple. Then don't blame me for taking your man away!"
Bibi Dong gave a cold laugh, lightly holding Bai Lu's right hand.
"Zhuqing, you won't be angry if you see me and my brother being affectionate, will you?"
Xiao Wu bounced into Bai Lu's arms, raised her face, and said in a green-tea-like tone:
"You look so scary when you're cold-faced… not like me, I only know how to feel sorry for Brother~."
Three beautiful faces, three piercing voices, and three pairs of eyes full of provocation.
And Bai Lu remained expressionless.
In an instant, it felt like something shattered in the girl's chest.
Along with anger, a feeling called fear surged up.
"You… all of you, get away from him!"
The girl's face was ice-cold, her voice trembling slightly without her realizing it.
"Oh? What's wrong? Did we hit a sore spot?"
"Already angry? This is just the beginning, girl~."
"Zhuqing, being this rude won't make Bai Lu like you!"
The three women kept talking, their sarcastic words continuously attacking the girl's already fragile mind under the influence of the soul skill.
"This… this isn't right!!"
Even Bai Lu was dumbfounded watching this illusion!
He thought to himself, he hadn't even started a harem yet!
So why was this bloody Shura field happening ahead of schedule?
In one word—absurd!
But no matter how absurd it was, at this moment, the girl affected by the soul skill—due to Bai Lu suppressing his spiritual power—actually believed it!
"Ha!"
The little kitty instantly bristled, entering "Spiny Back Dragon" mode:
"You… deserve to die!"
She tried to control her body and step forward to tear those three bitches apart.
But…
"The one who deserves to die is you!"
"Incompetent little kitty, just watch obediently as he gets completely taken by us!"
As the words fell, golden threads from the void bound the girl's body.
A massive spider web tightly restrained her!
At the same time, Xiao Wu teleported behind the girl, her scorpion braid wrapping around the latter's neck.
She was about to unleash the Instant Eight Stage Drop!
"White Tiger Killing God Transformation!"
Zhu Zhuqing's eyes burst with red light.
Killing intent erupted, and a chilling, murderous aura instantly tore apart the three women in front of her, along with the indifferent Bai Lu.
The nightmare illusion—shattered!
"What's going on?"
Shi Nian met those crimson eyes and instantly felt as if his entire being had been seen through!
The next moment, his entire body collapsed!
It turned out this was only an illusory clone.
"You are seeking death."
Zhu Zhuqing's eyes were filled with killing intent as she slowly raised her left hand, which shone with a dark golden light.
Killing intent condensed into her fist, and even the surrounding space seemed to distort.
The moment her words fell, her figure suddenly disappeared from where she stood.
Her body flickered like a phantom, each movement crossing a hundred meters to appear in another direction.
Phantom Tenfold Flash!
Shua!
One second later, Zhu Zhuqing appeared within a patch of grass one kilometer away.
"Take this!"
Zhu Zhuqing looked at Shi Nian's true body, which was hiding with a suppressed aura in front of her.
Power gathered as she threw a punch!
"What?!"
Shi Nian's pupils shrank sharply as he turned back in terror.
Whoosh!
What greeted him was a fist covered in dark golden light.
Overwhelming pressure!
Shatter the Mountain and Split the Earth!!
Controlling Crane Capturing Dragon · Rasengan Explosion!!!
"Boom!"
Carrying overwhelming heavenly might, the punch struck him directly.
Shi Nian didn't even have time to scream before his entire body froze.
"BOOM—!!!"
The next instant, he exploded into a bloody mist!
Even his storage soul tool did not survive!
Everything was blasted apart with a single punch!
The wind from the punch howled, dispersing the nauseating blood droplets.
The girl remained spotless.
Until his death, Shi Nian would never know that after activating the White Tiger Killing God Transformation, the girl's killing intent could precisely lock onto her target, rendering her immune to illusions!
Before her at this moment, his proud Brutal Dream martial soul and nightmare soul skill were completely useless!
Zhu Zhuqing withdrew her fist as the dark golden light slowly faded.
She coldly uttered two words:
"So weak."
Buzz~
The next moment, the Slaughter Skull slightly lit up.
A black soul emerged from the ground, revealing Shi Nian's terrified old face.
He struggled desperately but was still sent by the cold girl into the slaughter space.
She would let the other vengeful souls "properly reform" this disgusting fellow!
"Hoo~"
The girl steadied her emotions slightly and was about to leave.
Suddenly, among the scattered blood, a cluster of colorful light caught her attention.
It was a bone, about seven inches long, a left arm Soul Bone.
"A Soul Bone dropped?"
Zhu Zhuqing was somewhat surprised as she picked it up.
To her surprise, the quality of this Soul Bone was actually quite good, reaching a ten-thousand-year level.
"This is an Illusion Wisdom Arm Bone. It can create illusions and enhance both your own and the target's spiritual power."
Bai Lu's voice sounded: "It's useless to you. Put it away."
"Mm."
Zhu Zhuqing nodded and stored the colorful Soul Bone in her storage earring.
Then the girl projected her body into the spiritual sea.
She said nothing, just silently stared at Bai Lu and the rabbit lump in his arms.
"Th-this… what are you doing?"
Noticing her gaze, Bai Lu panicked and quickly threw Xiao Wu aside:
"Y-you… when did this dead rabbit jump into my arms?!"
"Aren't you trying to get me killed?"
"Get away from me…"
"???"
Xiao Wu looked confused and angry but not daring to speak, curling into a ball and rolling to the side.
"Aren't you going to say something?"
Zhu Zhuqing kept a cold expression, staring at Bai Lu like death itself.
She had been controlled for quite a while.
Yet Bai Lu not only didn't help her but even suppressed his spiritual power and watched the show from the side.
Watching her get attacked by three women.
"What is there to say?"
"Wasn't that all imagined by you?"
Bai Lu smiled faintly, stepped forward, and gently embraced the girl.
"…"
Zhu Zhuqing's body trembled slightly as she murmured in a low voice:
"In the future… will you fall for someone else?"
"Will you be taken away by someone else, just like in the illusion?"
"You… you little kitty, why are you so insecure?"
Bai Lu sighed softly and asked, "Do you remember something I once told you?"
Zhu Zhuqing raised her head, her eyes flickering.
"Which sentence?"
"No matter what happens in the future, I will always stay by your side. No one can take me away from you."
"Your place in my heart is unique."
Bai Lu repeated his earlier words, lowering his head to press his forehead against hers, affirming:
"You are my chosen one, and the only one!"
