Going against the will of heaven, summoning strange beasts, abandoning her daughter, she is addicted

"Ungrateful and spouting so much nonsense." Ruan Yu kicked An Shiliu in the chest without expression.

If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, Dark Sixteen would have thought that he had been struck in the chest by a powerful divine weapon.

The pain was excruciating!

My internal organs felt like they were shattered, and I had no strength left.

Dark Sixteen was like a dog about to die of old age, lying on the ground, barely clinging to life.

"You are not allowed to kill Brother Shi Liu!" Although Gongsun Yihua did not know why the two had become enemies, she knew that An Shiliu could not die!

So she rushed forward and blocked Ruan Yu's path.

"I think there must be some misunderstanding. Brother Shi Liu is a very kind person and would never want to take your life."

"Xiao Yihua, move aside." An Shiliu's face was grim.

He can die, but Gongsun Yihua cannot. Otherwise, the Lord will not spare his family.

"I won't allow it." Gongsun Yihua resolutely protected An Shiliu and said to Ruan Yu, "If you want to kill, then kill me!"

She steeled herself and tilted her head back.

Ruan Yu pressed his sword against her neck, the sharp blade slicing through her tender skin.

Bright red blood flowed down her slender white neck, staining her clothes at the chest.

Gongsun Yihua was so scared that she stopped breathing. She said this to make Ruan Yu back down, after all, given her status, no one should dare to touch her, right?

But Ruan Yu actually drew her sword!

She was so close! She was about to die!

Gongsun Yihua was now truly terrified, daring not to move an inch, and breathing cautiously. She was afraid that if she breathed too hard, she would accidentally bump into the sword.

"Where did that unwavering determination go?" Ruan Yu scoffed.

With a flick of his wrist, he struck Gongsun Yihua in the face with the flat of his sword, knocking her back.

Gongsun Yihua is still untouchable. Judging from how nervous An Shiliu is about her, she definitely has a close relationship with the Dark Pavilion, and is very likely someone related to the Dark Pavilion Master.

Now that my strength has diminished, it's best not to make any fatal enemies.

Seeing that Gongsun Yihua was unharmed, An Shiliu could finally breathe a sigh of relief.

Ruan Yu pulled him into the duel space. For people with similar cultivation levels to enter the duel space, both of them need to agree.

An Shiliu was unwilling to go in. He was seriously injured and no match for Ruan Yu. Going in would be suicide, wouldn't it? Perhaps with Gongsun Yihua protecting him outside, he could at least escape with his life.

but……

An Shiliu had calculated everything, but he never anticipated that Ruan Yu would disregard his attitude and forcibly pull him into the duel space.

"No... this isn't a duel space." Dark Sixteen was shocked as he looked at the illusory arena around him and the seawater scent that permeated the air.

"Who exactly are you?" This aura reminded Dark Sixteen of a god.

"What is your relationship with the Sea God?" While he was rambling on, Ruan Yu took the opportunity to flick a disguise pill into his mouth.

"Ugh!" Dark Sixteen shut his mouth in terror, trying to reach into his throat.

However, like most people, he failed.

The True Word Pill began to take effect.

"Is the Dark Pavilion a force created by the Gongsun family?" Ruan Yu asked directly.

Dark Sixteen: "I don't know."

"!!!" Why is his mouth out of control?

Fortunately, the question he answered wasn't very important, otherwise the Lord would have tormented him to death!

"What about Gongsun Yihua? What is her relationship with the Dark Pavilion?"

Dark Sixteen: "I don't know, I only know that she is someone the Lord specifically asked to protect. The Lord said that her life is a hundred times more important than any of ours. If Gongsun Yihua gets into trouble, then none of us will survive."

"What, what did you feed me?!" An Shiliu exclaimed, covering his mouth in astonishment as he questioned Ruan Yu, "I know, it was the Truth Pill, wasn't it?"

A type of elixir that has recently become popular in the market.

He heard about it, but didn't take it seriously, thinking it was just merchants exaggerating and driving up prices.

Now it seems he was short-sighted!

To avoid revealing more secrets, An Shiliu hardened his heart and bit off his own tongue.

However, before he could put his plan into action, Ruan Yu saw through it.

Ruan Yu pressed on, "What deal did you make with Dark Four, Dark Eight, and Dark Ten? Why did you team up to take my life?"

Once she asked a question, Dark Sixteen had no choice but to answer. Once her mouth got busy, there was no time to bite off her tongue.

Of course, even if it's bitten off, Ruan Yu can make it regenerate. She does this simply to avoid the hassle.

Dark Sixteen's mouth started spitting out words uncontrollably: "There is a great treasure in the Beast Forest, but there is a seal on the place where it is located, and even a supreme expert like the Lord is helpless against it."

"We brought you here just to try our luck. If you can break the seal, then we can retrieve the treasure and take it back. If not... killing you will still be a great achievement."

"If I'm not mistaken, you killed Dark Seventeen, didn't you?"

Dark Sixteen's sinister gaze, like a venomous snake, coiled around Ruan Yu.

"it's me."

Upon hearing this, An Sixteen smiled with relief: "I knew it! What about the Fifteenth Prince? What did you do to him?"

"Do you want to become like him?" Ruan Yu asked with a teasing laugh.

"What do you mean?" Dark Sixteen didn't understand.

"It's alright, you'll find out soon enough." Ruan Yu didn't elaborate, but asked again, "Why did you frame An Jiu?"

"Because he is disloyal!" Dark Sixteen's expression and tone became agitated at the mention of Dark Nine: "Everything he has now is a gift from the Lord! He should serve the Lord!"

"But he betrayed his master and chose to help you because of a few pills! How ridiculous!"

"Aren't you the ridiculous one?" Ruan Yu looked at An Shiliu with the eyes of someone looking at an idiot: "Did your master save your life? Why are you willing to risk your life for him?"

"He didn't save my life, but he saved my family's lives!" Dark Sixteen roared.

"I saved you twice."

"Did I ask you to save me?" Dark Sixteen retorted.

Ruan Yu: "?!" It's not your two arms, is it?

She lost her patience. "Yes, it's my fault for going to all this trouble. Since I saved your life, it's perfectly reasonable for me to take it back now, isn't it?"

"No!" Dark Sixteen was anxious. This damned True Word Pill really left him with no privacy at all! He blurted out every word in his heart.

"Give me a reason."

"I don't want to die."

"..." People can laugh when they're speechless.

Ruan Yu was silent for a moment: "You should just die."

As usual, one-hit kill, plus a bonus "Extreme Ice and Earth Flame" corpse-collecting package.

After dealing with Dark Sixteen, Ruan Yu left the independent space with a thought.

"Where is Brother Shi Liu?" Gongsun Yihua only saw Ruan Yu appear and looked around anxiously.

"What Shi Liu Sixteen? I don't know, I don't recognize her." Ruan Yu shrugged, looking very confused.
