Chapter 86
"It sounds like a very cost-effective deal!"
Su Xuan's tone was calm, and his words suddenly shifted. "However, why should I agree?"
"You must know that it is you who are poisoned by me and have to be controlled by me!"
Lady Mingzhu's face stiffened again. Being controlled by Su Xuan was the most unacceptable thing in her heart.
The gu-maker is controlled by the gu!
How absurd this is.
Lady Mingzhu snorted coldly and continued, "Just ask if you bet or not?"
"I have already given you the opportunity. If you don't grasp it yourself and die later, don't blame me for not saving you!"
Su Xuan sighed, "Listening to your words, are you already certain that I will die? I consider myself to have no grudges against you, so why do you want to kill me so much? You must know that if I die, it is not a good thing for you!"
"You just want to say that if you die, no one can detoxify my poison!" Lady Mingzhu's voice was cold. "Don't bother worrying about this!"
Before this, Lady Mingzhu had also had this concern: if she killed Su Xuan, no one would be able to remove the poison in her body. When the poison flared up, if there was no antidote, she would surely die.
But after her cousin Bai Yifei returned, she gradually understood.
There was no need to continue to be evasive with Su Xuan; she could fully reveal a strong attitude.
If Su Xuan really refused to soften his stance and still refused to hand over the antidote in the face of the threat of death, then even if he died, Su Xuan would die first.
As for her, she would have to wait until the poison flared up to possibly die.
But with her cousin there, even if her cousin couldn't find the location of the toxin in her body for a while, with her cousin's methods, he would definitely not let her die easily.
Lady Mingzhu indicated that she was no longer afraid of Su Xuan's threat of death.
Her confidence was her cousin, Bai Yifei!
"Since you have said so, if I don't accept this bet of yours, it would be too unmanly." Su Xuan said faintly again.
Lady Mingzhu scoffed, somewhat disdainful.
After a few words, she found that Su Xuan was not much.
He spoke nicely, but in the end, faced with the threat of life and death, didn't he still soften his stance?
Was this because he knew of her cousin Bai Yifei's power?
Earlier, Su Xuan had pointed out her origin in front of her. Since Su Xuan knew the relationship between her and her cousin Bai Yifei, it was not surprising that Su Xuan knew of her cousin's power.
Su Xuan said again, "You have already said what price I will pay if I lose, but have you forgotten one thing?"
"What?" Lady Mingzhu looked at Su Xuan, somewhat puzzled.
"That is, if I win and survive this bet at the cost of life, what are you willing to pay?"
"You?" Lady Mingzhu was somewhat disdainful; she didn't think Su Xuan could win.
Even if Su Xuan could defeat Tian Ze, after Tian Ze, there was her cousin Bai Yifei.
This was a dead end.
When Su Xuan crippled Feicui Hu and offended Ji Wuye, he only had one path: death.
Of course, if Su Xuan gave her the antidote, she could save Su Xuan's life. Of course, sometimes, being alive is not necessarily better than being dead.
Because Su Xuan offended Ji Wuye, even if Su Xuan was alive, it was impossible for him to be fine. She was prepared to turn Su Xuan into a gu-human, a seedbed for raising gu.
By then, except for still being alive, Su Xuan would be no different from a dead person in all other aspects.
But, this was still alive, and it was not a violation of the bet.
Of course, she couldn't tell Su Xuan these words.
This time, even though she was certain Su Xuan couldn't win, after hearing Su Xuan's question, Lady Mingzhu pondered for a moment and still asked Su Xuan, "What do you want?"
She didn't mind giving Su Xuan a chance to ask for a high price; anyway, Su Xuan couldn't win.
"If I say, what I want is you?"
"!!!"
Lady Mingzhu was immediately furious. Yan Lingji, in the cage on the side, was quietly listening to the conversation between Su Xuan and Lady Mingzhu. After hearing this sentence from Su Xuan, a smile immediately appeared on her face, and she watched with interest. "Interesting!"
Lady Mingzhu's anger soon dissipated again.
This was not the first time Su Xuan had said similar words in front of her. Earlier, Su Xuan had asked her to do things for him. This time, compared to the last time, it was just a bit more straightforward.
She said coldly, "If you win, what if I take myself as a bet and give it to you?"
She also thought very clearly.
If her cousin also lost, it meant that Su Xuan was a monster they couldn't deal with at all. Relying on such a person was not shameful.
But did Su Xuan have such strength?
No!
So, this sentence was purely a joke!
"That's what you said!"
Su Xuan looked like he had Lady Mingzhu in his pocket.
This made Lady Mingzhu feel some annoyance again.
She didn't stay long at Su Xuan's place. After concluding the bet, she left.
After Lady Mingzhu left, perhaps because she had stayed here, a faint fragrance remained in the air.
In the cage, Yan Lingji looked at Su Xuan, her voice soft, "You, do you like women to mortgage themselves to you so much?"
The bet Su Xuan made with her earlier was also like this.
If he defeated her master Tian Ze, she would use her freedom as the price to exchange for her master's escape.
This time, the bet made between that mysterious woman and Su Xuan was also like this.
If Su Xuan won, the mysterious woman had to mortgage herself to Su Xuan.
Thinking of the content of these two bets, Yan Lingji was also quite emotional. How similar they were.
These two people were quite tacit.
Both used other people's lives as the price to make bets.
