Chapter 47

After dealing with the Soul Saint who protected Zhu Biyun,

Bai Ran then walked around the surroundings, confirming that Zhu Zhuqing had no guardian, and returned to the side of the two Zhu sisters.

Perhaps due to a sudden shift in the situation, Zhu Biyun's attitude toward her sister Zhu Zhuqing also improved considerably.

Of course, Zhu Biyun doing this is also to survive.

In her view, her sister has a good figure and looks; now that the boy has returned, her sister just needs to crook her finger, even sacrifice a bit of her charm, then they could survive. Zhu Zhuqing rolled her eyes and asked, 'Why don't you go?'

"Ah this, I am already the consort of Dai Weis."

Besides, I am much older than that boy, so it's not suitable.

Jimei is like that; only when something really happens does she remember she still has a sister who needs saving.

"Get lost, Zhu Biyun, you make me feel disgusted."

Anyway, that so-called fiancé is just good-for-nothing trash; might as well die.

I never had any hope for the future anyway; being able to die together with this bad woman is also considered having no regrets.

Forgive Zhu Biyun? Forget it.

If she is really forced to sell her body later, the last thing Zhu Zhuqing will do before killing herself is to have that boy kill Zhu Biyun.

One who has always targeted her sister since childhood and constantly wants to kill her.

Only someone like Dai Mubai, that treasure, would choose to forgive.

Don't even talk about not wanting to manage the empire.

If I don't want to manage the empire, couldn't I just pass it on to my descendants? Besides, after becoming a god I can stay in the lower realm for a hundred years; couldn't a hundred years be enough to train a future successor for the empire?

One can only say that Dai Mubai, probably because he played with too many women when he was young, ruined his younger brother, to the point that they can't produce offspring.

……

"You two women are so dishonest."

"Besides, a beauty trap? I have a few stalks of aphrodisiac grass here; do you believe I could feed them to you and then toss you straight into the territory of the Swift Wind Demon Wolf?"

Hearing that this venomous woman Zhu Biyun was actually inciting her sister to take him down,

Bai Ran was also amused.

"Not an old woman, do you think this is a female-oriented channel? Just crook your finger and pretend to show a bit of skin, and you can make my IQ drop by 180 points, turning me into a woman's lapdog? "You can't do that!""

As everyone knows, the Swift Wind Demon Wolf is practically the most licentious existence among spirit beasts; the Wolf Bandit, a monster born from the union of a Swift Wind Demon Wolf and a human, is even a rapist among rapists.

If she were actually thrown into the territory of the Swift Wind Demon Wolf, Zhu Biyun estimates she would be blocked at various entrances and exits by many Swift Wind Demon Wolves,

and, after giving birth to a Wolf Bandit, this creature devoid of any moral conscience will continue to mate with its mother.

Such an outcome is practically a nightmare for women.

Thus, the Wolf Bandit's reputation is notoriously infamous.

(Wolf Bandit: Actually, compared to A San, I'm still quite restrained; at least I have no interest in anything too bizarre.) The Swift Wind Demon Wolf's reputation isn't that bad, after all, its territorial awareness is strong, and it doesn't often raid villages like the Wolf Bandit does, killing the men and elderly and abducting all the young or beautiful women.

"Forget it, I don't want to waste words with you; if you can give me a satisfactory reward, I could let you go."

In fact, Bai Ran never intended to let Zhu Biyun go; after all, his Soul Saint strength was exposed, and if Zhu Biyun returned, he would risk being hunted by a Title Douluo.

Saying this now, he probably just wants to see how much he can squeeze out of this Zhu family young lady's pocket.

Even an average-quality storage soul device is still easily broken,

Therefore, as long as Zhu Biyun wants, Bai Ran won't get a single gold soul coin.

"How about 100,000 gold soul coins?"

"Is the life of the Zhu family young lady worth only 100,000 gold soul coins? To be honest, even if I exchanged you for military merit, I could get 500,000 gold soul coins."

"Imperial Consort of the Eldest Imperial Prince of the Star Luo Empire, what's that worth? Tsk tsk tsk, even if Bai Ran just took a plaque, wrote 'Imperial Consort of the Eldest Imperial Prince of the Star Luo Empire' on it, hung it in front of Zhu Biyun, and then led her around the empire for a lap, the tips he'd receive would definitely be more than 100,000 gold soul coins."

"200,000 gold soul coins, this is all my wealth."

"Not enough, besides, I have no interest in gold soul coins."

"200,000 gold soul coins, plus three stalks of century-old medicinal herbs."

"Hmm, that's okay."

"So you'll let me go, right?" "Yes, as long as you give me the thing, I won't lay a hand on you before we meet again."

After Bai Ran's series of assurances and swearing on his martial soul,

Zhu Biyun happily handed over the item to Bai Ran.

Then she fled as if flying, thinking in her heart that she never wanted to meet this man again in this lifetime.

Unfortunately, the smile of having survived the calamity hadn't even lingered on Zhu Biyun for a moment.

Twenty-five seconds later, Zhu Biyun hadn't even escaped much distance.

Bai Ran appeared before her again and intercepted her.

"You, what are you doing? I already gave you the thing, and the amount is correct, right?"

Zhu Biyun inexplicably felt panicked in her heart.

"See you again, old woman."

Bai Ran smiled and produced the Ten Thousand Soul Banner.

"No, there's also this kind of operation? Wait, you didn't swear on your martial soul? Acting like this, aren't you afraid your realm won't be able to breakthrough?"

You should know that after swearing on one's martial soul and then violating the oath, one will suffer severe punishment, such as the obstacle to breakthrough increasing manifold.

Some older Soul Masters, unable to breakthrough, might get away with breaking oaths, but you, such a young and promising Soul Saint with a bright future, breaking your oath—aren't you afraid you'll never breakthrough to the next realm in this lifetime, thus ruining yourself?

In response, Bai Ran's martial soul declared——

"Human Emperor Banner: "Hey, did you just feel the restraint of the rules?""

"Ten Thousand Soul Banner: "No, big bro, this world doesn't even have a heavenly way, so where would any rule restraint come from? By the way, want to try the cigarette I just rolled?""

"Human Emperor Banner: "No, your cigarettes are made with human souls, the flavor's too strong, I can't smoke them, and I'm afraid smoking would ruin my merit.""

……

「Zhu Zhuqing, it's just you left, I don't know what price you, the second young lady of the Zhu family, are willing to offer? 」

Because the Myriad Soul Banner does not accept the corpses of little fairies, for fear of infection.

Bai Ran had no choice but to throw Zhu Zhuyun's corpse into the Soul Beast Territory, which took some time.

Of course, after returning to his original position, Bai Ran asked a question similar to the previous one.

「Did you kill that woman Zhu Zhuyun? 」

The bloody smell on Bai Ran's body was instantly detected by Zhu Zhuqing.

「What, you want to avenge your sister? 」

「No, it's good that she died. 」

「Besides, this is all my savings; if possible, I hope you can also kill a man named Dai Mubai. 」

Over these many years, the chief culprit who brought her suffering, Zhu Zhuyun, has died.

However, in this world, Zhu Zhuqing still harbors hatred toward another person,

that is, Dai Mubai, who abandoned her a few years ago and chose to come to the Tian Dou Empire to indulge in pleasure and dreams.

If Dai Mubai had acted like a man and stayed in the Star Luo Empire, Zhu Zhuqing would not have been bullied so terribly.

Even to the point where she was forced to leave the duke's mansion.

「Yo, you're still negotiating terms with me? 」

「Um, eleven gold soul coins, five silver soul coins, and eight copper soul coins. 」

Looking at this ordinary money pouch, for some reason, Bai Ran felt a bit emotionally affected.

There's both change and whole amounts; indeed, as Zhu Zhuqing said, this really is all her savings.

Moreover, Bai Ran hadn't seen copper soul coins in years; he never expected to find them in the money pouch of a duke's daughter.

……

Uh-oh, I've been warned; I can't make all female characters version T0. I need to arrange relatively normal females; if it's the female lead, there's none; if there are requirements, brothers can bring them up.

Let me see if it's suitable.
