Chapter 2061: Totally nailed it!

Now the trump card of the Breaking Formation Gu has been exposed; Du Fei Ling will definitely study the Breaking Formation Gu. We can only pin our hopes on Lv Bing now.

Elder Jing Shan gave a grim laugh, "Just watch. Lv Bing will surely betray."

Cangwu Old Ancestor asked, "Are you that sure?"

Elder Jing Shan said, "Love has no reason. Love is only exquisitely beautiful before one obtains it."

Cangwu Old Ancestor said, "And after obtaining it?"

Elder Jing Shan chuckled, "It wilts immediately. Love is like a fleeting blossom."

Cangwu Old Ancestor clicked his tongue, "You understand this so well? Love is a human thing. Humans have myriad emotions and countless desires, hard to fathom."

Elder Jing Shan smiled faintly, "My Gu Clan studies Dao Resonance; among the Gu I have seen countless human emotions. Love is cheap, popular among those ants."

"Lv Bing is exactly such a person; I have seen too many like him. He is deeply infatuated with Du Fei Ling, wanting to obtain her, but according to my observation, Du Fei Ling has no thoughts for him."

"Lv Bing may have already sensed it, but he dares not believe it. Once he knows this fact, the power of the Love-Hate Gu will truly manifest."

"Love desires its life; hatred desires its death."

"So, when I knew Lv Bing had swallowed the Love-Hate Gu in one gulp, I felt no surprise."

Cangwu Old Ancestor found it strange, "You understand Lv Bing so well."

Elder Jing Shan's mouth corner slightly rose, "Our Gu Clan has too many Gu refined from humans; their entire lives, the countless pasts of ants are within them."

"Humans are a strange race; sometimes they clearly could have many choices, yet they insist on taking the hardest path, even choosing death directly."

"Lv Bing is now in such a situation. On the surface he appears as the human War God, revered by tens of thousands, with limitless glory. Although he has been thrown into prison, his military talisman and the Origin of the Heaven's Mandate taken away, this is only temporary, but in reality his options are few."

"There's a word called 'hard to return from accumulated weight'; he can't go back. Du Fei Ling doesn't know that humans value dignity and face the most, especially men."

"So, the only two paths Lv Bing can take are: completely lower his head, apologize to Yang Jian, submit to Du Fei Ling, and thereafter have no complaints; the second is betrayal."

Cangwu Old Ancestor clapped and laughed loudly, "I understand. Letting Lv Bing choose the first option is no better than killing him. So Lv Bing can only betray."

Elder Jing Shan said, "It was Du Fei Ling who pushed him into the abyss, and she doesn't like Lv Bing at all—it's a deadly move!"

Cangwu Old Ancestor said, "In that case, exposing the Breaking Formation Gu and exchanging for another Lv Bing is still worthwhile. As long as we obtain Lv Bing, all deployments of the Hehuan Sect will collapse."

Elder Jing Shan nodded, "Not bad. Just quietly wait for the result."

Cangwu Old Ancestor asked, "Any movement of the Heaven's Mandate Origin at Purple Lake Star Lake?"

Elder Jing Shan said, "None. It seems the Heaven's Mandate Origin is not in the garrison."

The power contained within the Heaven's Mandate Origin is too terrifying.

He firmly believes that even Lu Xuan cannot silently conceal that fluctuation.

Cangwu Old Ancestor said, "If so, let the demon clan investigate their garrison. The Heaven's Mandate Origin can only be here."

Elder Jing Shan nodded, "I will send people."

Elsewhere.

Du Fei Ling, in a long dress, stepped lightly into the prison.

"Plop!"

Lv Bing immediately knelt on the ground.

"Little Du Du, I know I was wrong, I really know I was wrong."

"The mistakes I made are all because I love you too much."

"I am indeed jealous of that brat Yang Jian—why should he get your affection? These things I should have gotten long ago."

"Think carefully—before Yang Jian, did I ever make a mistake? Isn't it that whatever you say, that's what it is?"

Du Fei Ling frowned slightly.

"Think carefully—before Yang Jian, Lv Bing had never been this outrageous."

"Only the habit of keeping a beauty in a golden house."

"Before, she turned a blind eye to these."

Du Fei Ling asked, "How do you explain those golden-house beauties of yours?"

Lv Bing hurriedly explained, "I have no feelings for them at all; it's just… you know, you don't give me anything, so I can only vent like this."

"If you're angry, I'll just kill them all directly."

An angry look appeared on Du Fei Ling's stunning face.

Lv Bing then said, "You always say I should apologize to Yang Jian because he's a disciple of Venerable Lord Lu! What if I become a disciple of Venerable Lord Lu in the future?"

Du Fei Ling said, "Then you should apologize to him even more, so he forgives you."

Lv Bing staggered, his fist slamming the ground, "Why? We're both disciples of Venerable Lord Lu, we're equal. When I become a disciple of Venerable Lord Lu, the first thing I'll do is kill him."

Du Fei Ling turned to leave, "It seems you still haven't come to your senses."

Lv Bing's eyes turned crimson, and he suddenly said, "I only want to ask you one question now—swear to tell me the truth."

Du Fei Ling stopped, looking at Lv Bing's mad appearance, and said, "I think you should calm down first before speaking."

"I can't calm down!"

Lv Bing let out a somewhat hysterical roar, "I just want to know—do you like me or not?"

Du Fei Ling said flatly, "Didn't I already say that matters of love aren't to be discussed now; we can talk about it after everything settles?"

Lv Bing grabbed the prison's mysterious iron with both hands, shaking it violently, the whole prison trembling, "I want to know now. I just want to know the truth—you can have me do anything."

Du Fei Ling fell silent for a moment, "Do you really want to know the answer?"

Lv Bing involuntarily retreated half a step.

He suddenly felt something.

But he still insisted, "I want to know. Tell me! Quickly tell me!"

Du Fei Ling uttered three words, "Don't like."

Lv Bing was stunned on the spot.

Impossible! Absolutely impossible!

He began to shout loudly.

That wasn't the answer he wanted to hear.

His face turned red, and he began to clutch his own hair, "You're lying to me! You're lying to me!"

Du Fei Ling continued, "Actually, I never liked you. Never."

That voice fell.

Lv Bing stood there stunned, as if struck by lightning.

He struck his head against the profound iron, his head splitting and bleeding.

Pain, so painful!

But the bodily pain is not even one ten-thousandth of the soul's pain.

He suddenly shouted, recalling the past, "Impossible! Then how come you treated me so well before, held my hand, and said you liked me?"

Du Fei Ling said lightly, "I like you, but not the kind you want. Actually, I've always regarded you as a brother, do you understand?"
