I am the snake demon!

Chapter 91 I've Become Duan Yu's Substitute?

A short while later, Lu Zhanqiu had subdued everyone in the brothel and tied them all up with ropes.

Then he left Gao Feng to watch them, while he himself stayed by Bai Xuan's side, ready to watch the show.

Meanwhile, Xuejiao and her maid were restrained by Lu Zhanqiu, who sealed their internal energy and bound them with thick ropes.

Bai Xuan sat in the grand chair, looking down at Xue Jiao, and asked, "Where are Dan Xue and Xue Qian Sha? How many people did you bring this time?"

"Um?

'

When Xuejiao, who was tied up, heard Bai Xuan's question, she was stunned. Her delicate face was full of astonishment as she looked at Bai Xuan in disbelief.

What are you saying?

I belong to the Wangshu lineage, while Danxue belongs to the Yeguang lineage. Although we are both from the Mingyue Palace, and I have to address her as my senior sister when we meet, our relationship is just so-so.

She supports Tsukihime, who belongs to her Night Light lineage, it has nothing to do with me!

"Aren't you going to talk?" Seeing Xue Jiao remain silent, Bai Xuan assumed she was pretending to be stupid, and his expression darkened slightly.

"No, what did I say? I know Aunt Danxue, but that's all. Our Bright Moon Palace is divided into three branches: Wangshu, Guipo, and Yeguang. I am a Moon Princess from the Wangshu branch, while Aunt Danxue is from the Yeguang branch. She supports her branch's Moon Princesses and is too busy suppressing me to have much contact with me. If you don't believe me, you can ask the experts next to you!"

Seeing Bai Xuan about to make a move, Xue Jiao was startled and quickly said...

"That's true," Lu Zhanqiu chimed in from the side.

The fact that Mingyue Palace is divided into three branches is not a secret in the martial arts world.

The larger the sect, the more obvious this situation becomes.

"If you had no contact with Danxue, how could you have appeared in Wuwei at this exact moment, knowing I was here and ambushing me beforehand? How many people from your Mingyue Palace came?" Bai Xuan asked incredulously.

"What are you talking about? I didn't ambush you!" Xuejiao's eyes widened upon hearing this.

No, I set this up specifically for Liu Yi.

Who knew you would suddenly come in, and then Liu Yi gave you the jade pendant.

If you hadn't suddenly intervened, Liu Yi and I, one playing the zither and the other the sword, would have worked together perfectly. Liu Yi is also a womanizer, so if I played the zither and fed him a few cups of wine, it would have been much easier to get the jade pendant.

"You're already a prisoner, are you still going to try and argue?"

Upon hearing this, Bai Xuan frowned and said, "If you're not going to ambush me, why are you preparing all this?"

"No, Xu Shi'an, you've already said it this far, do I still need to make excuses? I really didn't, I had no idea you were coming, I'm here for Liu Yi's jade pendant!" Xue Jiao exclaimed.

If you're not as skilled as someone else, you have to accept the consequences.

But you can't wrong me.

I had malicious intent, and I'm certainly not a good person, but it was a spur-of-the-moment decision.

Or rather, it was a spur-of-the-moment decision, not something premeditated.

You can't wrong me just because I'm not a good person!

You should be a good person!

"Yes, yes, I tried to persuade Senior Sister to give up, but she insisted that no man could escape her grasp. We really didn't have any designs on you in the first place," Xuejiao's maid said pitifully.

No, I just came out with my senior sister to do odd jobs. I didn't do anything bad, and then I was tied up.

Looking at the maid's pitiful expression, Bai Xuan raised an eyebrow, feeling that the other party was probably not lying, so this was just a misunderstanding.

Did I take the blame for Liu Yi?

Bai Xuan was skeptical and frowned as he looked at Xue Jiao, saying, "You want this jade pendant? Do you even know what it is?"

""

Upon hearing this, Xuejiao showed a conflicted expression.

"Oh! So you know, but you still don't want to say anything. Even now, you're still so stubborn? You've seen through my true nature and think I'm a good person? Okay, you're not wrong, I am indeed a good person. I, the King, am compassionate and cannot bear to see people suffer, especially someone as beautiful as you." Bai Xuan sighed, looking helplessly as if he had been seen through.

The maid in green was overjoyed upon hearing this. Was the prince a good person?

Xuejiao's heart was on high alert as she looked at Bai Xuan warily. If Bai Xuan hadn't said that, she could have thought he was kind, but now that he had, things were different.

This guy has absolutely nothing to do with being a decent person.

"Elder Lu, I'd like to trouble you to cripple this girl's martial arts and send her to a dark and gloomy dungeon. Let her experience all kinds of torture and see if she talks. Then tell me the result. After all, after the interrogation, this girl's beautiful face will be ruined, her proud figure will be ruined, and even in the filthy dungeon, there will be equally filthy and rotten men on top of her, one after another—ugh, it's too disgusting. I'm kind-hearted and can't bear to see human suffering." Bai Xuan turned to look at Lu Zhanqiu beside him and said.

Xuejiao shuddered upon hearing this; she couldn't even bear to imagine the scene, just thinking about it made her nauseous.

"Senior sister, tell me—tell me."

Xue Jiao's body trembled, while the maid beside her burst into tears, stammering.

She didn't want to go to the dungeon.

Once you're inside, you can't get out.

It also smells bad.

This guy is a monster!

Where does this kindness come from?

Seeing her junior sister's disappointing state, Xuejiao glared at her with a look of utter frustration. Then, looking at Bai Xuan's frivolous expression, she took a deep breath, her chest heaving dramatically, before looking up at Bai Xuan and saying, "You can't do that!"

"Why? Give me a reason. Is it because you're good-looking, have a great figure, and feel comfortable to touch, so I have to like you and feel guilty?" Bai Xuan teased.

Between men and women, even if they're wearing pants, they might not admit it.

Besides, he didn't even take off his own pants.

What kind of feelings are there?

Hearing such lewd words as "feels comfortable to touch"?

Xuejiao blushed. "You scoundrel, you admit it now! You just took advantage of me on purpose!" she said, biting her lip. "Because you are my third brother. Incest is something that will be condemned by everyone."

Bai Xuan, who had been all smiles and teasing, was suddenly stunned by Xue Jiao's words. He looked at Xue Jiao in disbelief and asked, "What did you call me?"

"Third Brother!"

Xuejiao stared intently at Bai Xuan, saying each word clearly, "You are the third son of the old Prince of Zhenbei, and my mother is Qin Qingyue, an elder of Mingyue Palace. She and the prince fell in love at first sight by Green Water Lake, but my father was a court official, and my mother couldn't give up the martial world and refused to enter the palace, so they parted ways. However, she was already pregnant with me at that time, so you are my third brother, and I am your sister!"

This was her biggest advantage in daring to scheme against Bai Xuan.

We're all one family!

The maid standing nearby widened her eyes, both delighted and shocked.

My senior sister is actually the daughter of my master and the old King of Zhenbei.

Great, I don't have to die.

Moreover, with this connection, the mission will be completed quickly, and then I will be able to go back to see my master.

Upon hearing this, Bai Xuan frowned and turned to look at Lu Zhanqiu, asking, "Really?"

Under normal circumstances, he would ignore it completely.

But the question is, is Xu Yunlong, the old King of Zhenbei, an ordinary person?

That's basically an upgraded version of Duan Zhengchun.

He has affairs everywhere, has many beautiful women, and fathers beautiful daughters all over the world.

Leaving aside the daughters in the Prince's Mansion, just consider the many female warriors who came to the funeral, including Liu Ruyi from the Taibai Sword Sect.

Who knows how many daughters he has?

Mingyue Palace is famous for its beautiful women.

The Moon Empress, the mistress of the Bright Moon Palace, is the most beautiful woman in the martial arts world, so it's almost certain that the old King of Zhenbei had a romantic relationship with someone from the Bright Moon Palace.

And isn't it perfectly reasonable to have a romantic relationship and children?

To be honest, when Bai Xuan first learned that this matter might be related to Mingyue Palace, his first reaction was to ask the old Zhenbei King if he had a lover in Mingyue Palace.

Upon hearing Bai Xuan's question, Lu Zhanqiu fell into deep thought. It was simply that the Prince of Zhenbei was not a trustworthy person.

If an older, beautiful woman in the martial arts world claims to be the lover of the Prince of Zhenbei, there's probably a 50% chance. But if a single, beautiful woman with children claims to be the Prince of Zhenbei's lover, there's probably a 70% chance.

This is called word-of-mouth.

So after a long silence, Lu Zhanqiu said, "Maybe."

Upon hearing this, Bai Xuan looked at Xue Jiao with a subtle expression. He thought to himself, "I've arrived at a place and met a girl. It turns out that the Prince of Zhenbei is Duan Zhengchun, and I've become Duan Yu."

No, I'm not the real Shi An, I'm just a stand-in for Duan Yu.
