Chapter 61: Deep Sisterly Bond
Listening to the soul‑snatching, heart‑stealing demonic music, Yu Tianyun forced themselves to endure the strange sensations in their body, quickly activated the ice‑fire twin pupils, and their mind instantly cleared a little.
They did not immediately reply to Zhu Zhu Yun, but instead turned their gaze toward the beautiful Zhu Zhuqing beside them, whose looks were no less striking than Zhu Zhu Yun's.
Beside them, Zhu Zhuqing's eyes opened wide, round as copper bells, as if she had heard something unbelievable; she stared tightly at Zhu Zhu Yun's back, and the anger and resentment that had filled her expression turned into bewilderment. She truly did not understand why Zhu Zhu Yun was pleading on her behalf at this moment.
Yu Tianyun looked at the two sisters before them, and their mind fell into contemplation. At that moment, they kept recalling memories from a previous life.
They remembered that ever since Zhu Zhuqing's martial soul awakened, she had constantly been the target of Zhu Zhu Yun's assassinations, eventually fleeing helplessly to Shilake Xueyuan to look for her fiancé. Her fiancé, however, was a spineless loser who dared not stay in the Star Luo Empire, fled to the Tian Dou Empire, and after arriving there made no effort to improve himself, spending his days indulging in women. Yet because he coveted Zhu Zhuqing's body, he was forced to strive, and in the end the two of them defeated their rivals and became the Star Luo Emperor and Empress.
But now, they were full of doubt: why did Zhu Zhu Yun ask them to spare Zhu Zhuqing? Although they had no reason to kill Zhu Zhuqing in the first place—after all, she had never provoked them, and just now had only tried to frighten the two.
It seemed there must be hidden motives! Zhu Zhuqing, equally puzzled, could no longer hold back; her voice remained as cold as frost as she addressed Zhu Zhu Yun: "Zhu Zhu Yun, it's already this late, is it still fun to put on this act? Haven't you always wanted me to die early?"
Indeed, at this life‑or‑death moment, both of their lives hung by a thread, so Zhu Zhu Yun stopped pretending and laid it out plainly: "My silly little sister! If I truly wanted to kill you, I would have done so long ago."
After a pause, they looked at Zhu Zhuqing with a hint of heartache and continued: "With your level‑27 Great Soul Master cultivation, do you think you can escape from the hands of this Soul Ancestor? The reason I have acted this way all these years is to help you grow quickly, so you can flee the Star Luo Empire and also take good care of yourself!"
Zhu Zhu Yun's gentle words, when heard by Zhu Zhuqing, were like a thunderclap that deafened the deaf. Zhu Zhuqing stood frozen for a moment, her gaze blank, not moving at all.
She could not believe that the Zhu Zhu Yun who had been cold and ruthless toward her was actually the big sister who always protected her! Her belief, her perception, her spirit were all collapsing bit by bit at that moment, yet upon reflection, Zhu Zhu Yun's words did indeed make sense.
At that moment, Yu Tianyun also suddenly understood; all confusion vanished instantly. They had previously wondered why the gap in soul power cultivation was so huge, and how Zhu Zhuqing could flee all the way from the Star Luo Empire to Shilake Xueyuan. The two shared the same martial soul, there was no martial soul countering relationship, nor any martial soul rank suppression; the sheer difference in soul power levels formed an insurmountable chasm, unless Zhu Zhuqing were a peerless genius! But was she? At least from Yu Tianyun's perspective, which was not inferior to a Title Douluo's, they saw no such talent.
Thus what Zhu Zhu Yun said was likely the truth! This display of deep sisterly affection even moved Yu Tianyun to feel compassion.
"I wish I could feel sorry for these two little kittens!" Yu Tianyun sighed inwardly.
But they still had to maintain a cold persona, knowing that only by inspiring fear could they gain more benefits.
As the heir of a great power, they were taught from childhood that one must not feel pity simply because the other is pitiful, but must resolutely protect one's own interests and learn to be ruthless! This is a basic requirement for a helm‑holder of a great power.
As the saying goes, "the imperial family is the most ruthless!" The other two present could relate to this more deeply than Yu Tianyun. They still said nothing, because they did not know how to begin, though they wanted to say, "You both can't escape; I want you both!"
But they would not say that; it would be too demeaning, not fitting their status, at least they needed to maintain some dignity.
Therefore, staying silent and staring coldly at the other instead makes the other self‑strategize in their mind, thereby offering more valuable things.
Sure enough, Zhu Zhu Yun did not disappoint Yu Tianyun; though there was some unwillingness in their heart, to keep the sister alive they had to make certain choices.
She swayed her slender waist, stepping with elegant cat‑like gait, moving gracefully toward Yu Tianyun, her face bearing a highly seductive smile, deliberately puffing out her already grand chest as if about to burst the tight combat suit. Upon reaching Yu Tianyun, one jade‑white hand gently brushed Yu Tianyun's broad, solid shoulder, while the other hand slowly moved toward Yu Tianyun's muscular chest, sliding down as she exhaled softly like orchid fragrance, whispering into Yu Tianyun's ear:
"Sir, as long as you release my little sister, I will be entirely at your disposal and do anything you wish!"
At this moment, the stunned Zhu Zhuqing finally came to her senses; she finally understood everything. She could not bear that her big sister would sacrifice her own dignity just to keep her alive.
She clenched her pearly teeth on her red lips, her brows furrowed into a knot, her expression instantly becoming unusually resolute, as if making a huge decision. She hurried to Yu Tianyun's side, extended a jade hand to pull Zhu Zhu Yun out, and then, as if daring to die, threw herself into Yu Tianyun's embrace, tightly hugging his waist, and said with reluctant yet firm voice: "Please let my big sister go; I am willing to be your woman!"
Her voice was soft but firm and strong; after speaking, her cheeks flushed red as if bleeding, her head buried tightly in Yu Tianyun's chest, her delicate body trembling lightly.
Yu Tianyun and Zhu Zhu Yun were both stunned at that moment; Yu Tianyun, feeling a sudden warm, tender sensation in their embrace, couldn't help their mind wander, fantasies arising, and the evil fire surged like an erupting volcano, nearly overwhelming them, feeling they were about to lose complete control.
Zhu Zhu Yun, however, was shocked by Zhu Zhuqing's selfless act; a flood of emotions surged, their gaze showing both relief and heartache, making them even less willing to see Zhu Zhuqing surrender herself to the "thief".
Immediately they lunged toward Yu Tianyun again, forcefully pushing Zhu Zhuqing outward, but Zhu Zhuqing's jade‑colored arm hugging Yu Tianyun's waist tightened even more.
Zhu Zhu Yun, fearing to hurt Zhu Zhuqing, dared not use great force to push her away, nor use soul power to shove her. In Yu Tianyun's embrace, they were momentarily extremely anxious.
Feeling the subtle sensations of the two writhing bodies in his arms, Yu Tianyun's breathing quickened, his eyes filled with blood vessels, veins bulged on his forehead, his face twisted in pain. He had not expected the two women to act so suddenly; caught off guard, his control over his own qi‑blood power instantly failed.
At this moment, Zhu Zhuqing, pressed against Yu Tianyun's chest, felt a hard object pressing against her abdomen; her jade hand inadvertently brushed it and asked, "What is this?"
Her delicate brows furrowed slightly, a hint of doubt arose in her mind, but that doubt vanished instantly; her thoughts remained fixed on her big sister, leaving no room for other considerations.
Yet Zhu Zhuqing's earlier action was the last straw that broke the camel's back; Yu Tianyun could no longer endure, his arms curved, and for the first time he actively lifted the two sisters. At that moment his last shred of reason had vanished; he hoisted the sisters, and amid their startled cries, carried them into the carriage.
Facing Yu Tianyun's domineering force, the two sisters had no resistance whatsoever, no unexpected events occurred, and no hero came to rescue them.
Thus, while feeling resentment, grievance, and indignation, they also harbored a slight sense of relief as they endured Yu Tianyun's wrath.
As time slowly passed, the bright moon rose high, and night finally arrived.
In the carriage, the women's painful moans finally ceased, and Yu Tianyun regained clarity once more!
