256. Chapter 256: Subduing Yi Zhuyue

"Flowery words, glib-tongued!"

Yi Zhuyue said angrily, her jade hands already clenched into fists.

"Yes, yes, yes, you should be careful now; after all, you are carrying the seed of my Su Family in your belly."

Seeing this, Su Chen curled the corners of his mouth and said with a slight smile.

"This is not what I wanted at all; it was your despicable methods!"

Hearing this, Yi Zhuyue couldn't help but roar, wishing at this moment she could die of shame by hitting a wall.

"Then find a way to get rid of it if you want. This Young Master has a way, but are you willing?"

Su Chen said indifferently, his eyes staring straight at Yi Zhuyue, as if he could see through the human heart.

Yi Zhuyue should have immediately said no, but for some reason, feeling the life in her lower abdomen, it was a very strange feeling.

She had to admit, she couldn't bring herself to do it.

Her hand couldn't help but cover her lower abdomen; she never expected this little life to arrive in this world by accident.

Previously in the Immortal World, the Medicine Saint Shennong had once said that it would be very difficult for her to have children in this life, unless she met that person.

Thinking about it now, Su Chen must be that person destined for her.

Since fate had arranged it so, how could she be willing to change it?

"Are you even human? This is your own flesh and blood, how can you be so cruel!"

Yi Zhuyue was silent for a long time, and finally just looked at Su Chen in shame and anger, as if Su Chen were a heartless, ungrateful man at this moment.

"This Young Master naturally wouldn't; this Young Master will certainly take good care of you and the child."

Su Chen pulled Yi Zhuyue directly into his arms, his hands rhythmically stroking her belly, while continuously channeling Spiritual Power into her body.

What he had just said was to test Yi Zhuyue; he was certain that Yi Zhuyue was absolutely not the type of cold-blooded person who could bring herself to abort after feeling the little life gestating in her body.

In fact, he didn't know at all that Shennong had already calculated everything about today's events clearly long ago.

"Get lost, don't come near this Venerable One."

Seeing Su Chen taking the opportunity to act badly, Yi Zhuyue subconsciously wanted to push Su Chen away.

"Don't move!"

Su Chen suddenly gave a soft shout.

Thinking something had happened to the child, Yi Zhuyue was immediately too nervous to move, stiff as a wooden statue.

Even though she used to be the most annoyed by small children, thinking that it was a little life gestating within her, from a tiny speck to eventually growing up, her heart felt filled to the brim.

"What's wrong?"

After a long time without receiving a response from Su Chen, Yi Zhuyue asked very nervously.

"This Young Master thinks... the child must also want their father by their side; after all, without fatherly love, it is simply too pitiful."

Su Chen couldn't help but click his tongue and sigh twice, saying this as if it were true.

Hearing this, Yi Zhuyue realized she had been played.

This child was at best just an embryo; how could it know anything as complex as father or mother?

However, Su Chen's words also successfully made her realize one thing—the child cannot be without a father.

Perhaps she could keep the child but leave the father.

Yi Zhuyue's eyes turned fierce, feeling as if she would knife Su Chen in the next second.

But soon, she realized one thing.

If she killed Su Chen, what would happen to the child's missing fatherly love? She had seen too many children who took extreme paths because they lacked the love of their parents; she only thought those people were pitiful before, but was she going to let her own child become like that? Or... find another man to be the father for the child.

But if it's not the biological father, it's inevitable that he might treat the child poorly in places she doesn't know about.

Thinking it over, it turned out that Su Chen was the best choice right now. Thinking of this, Yi Zhuyue clenched her fists, her heart already in turmoil.

Su Chen was not in a hurry either; he knew that he had to let Yi Zhuyue figure this out for herself; no matter how much he said, it wouldn't be as good as her thinking it through herself.

After a long time, Su Chen slowly opened his mouth and said: "Have you thought it through? Follow this Young Master, and this Young Master guarantees he will be good to you and the child. Your master is simply not worth your loyalty; follow this Young Master, and I will give you everything you want."

At this moment, his voice was exceptionally low and magnetic, like the Snake in the Garden of Eden tempting Eve to eat the forbidden fruit, full of seduction in his words.

Yi Zhuyue's gaze gradually lost focus, and she was truly considering the feasibility of this matter.

But she had already been loyal to her master for a thousand years; did she really have to give it up because of this? But to deprive her own child of the right to have both parents, wouldn't that be too cruel?

On one side was the master she had served loyally, and on the other was her own flesh and blood still in her womb.

She fell into a dilemma.

"Follow your heart, Zhuyue. I am a person who does not force others, but as long as you are my woman, I will not let anyone hurt you."

Seeing Yi Zhuyue fall into silence, Su Chen said slowly.

However, his words had little credibility, as everything that had just happened was forced by Su Chen.

But Yi Zhuyue caught another phrase—"Follow your heart."

Yes, the power of decision was in her own hands.

"I think I want to think about it carefully; can you give me two days?"

Yi Zhuyue had a splitting headache, her mind filled with thousands of thoughts, feeling as if her whole person was about to explode.

Su Chen was not in a rush for the moment and nodded; it was only two days, he could afford to wait.

"Can you let me go for these two days, and let me see if you really have the strength to live up to what you said?"

Yi Zhuyue looked at Su Chen coldly.

But in her heart, she was actually a bit intimidated; after all, they were still in a hostile relationship, and it would be very difficult to regain her freedom.

But she never expected that Su Chen would readily agree.

"Although I can agree to your request, I want you to take a Heart Demon Oath, guaranteeing that you will not do anything to harm me or my subordinates in these two days, and I must temporarily seal your cultivation to prevent you from playing any tricks."

Su Chen said slowly.

He was still afraid that Yi Zhuyue might be playing tricks; although the probability was very small, he was a person who acted very cautiously.

This request was not excessive, so Yi Zhuyue agreed and immediately swore a Heart Demon Oath.

Su Chen did not hesitate either; after feeding the Pill to Yi Zhuyue, he put away the Immortal-Binding Rope.

Having regained her freedom, Yi Zhuyue was still a bit unaccustomed to it.

However, she was in no mood to pay attention to that right now, as her mind was filled with Su Chen's words.

Su Chen led her out, and as soon as Lv Luo saw Su Chen emerge, she walked over happily, but soon she saw Yi Zhuyue standing behind him, and her eyes widened in terror.

The words on the tip of her tongue changed abruptly: "Master... how did she get out?"

"It's fine, she has no cultivation base now, and we have made an agreement that she will visit the sect for these two days, but she certainly won't harm any fellow disciples."

Hearing this, Su Chen nodded slightly and gave a brief explanation.

Lv Luo looked at that cold and aloof face of hers, and her heart began to tremble with fear.

She couldn't help but mutter in a low voice: "Is that really true? But I just find her so terrifying."

It was normal for Lv Luo to have such worries; after all, just a moment ago, Yi Zhuyue had intended to hand her over to Shi Zhengxiong, and her behavior just now had indeed been quite frightening.

"Rest assured, when has your master ever lied to you? Zhuyue, what do you say?"

Su Chen smiled and cast his gaze toward Yi Zhuyue, his eyes burning and intense, filled with absolute trust.

Yi Zhuyue had already sworn a Heart Demon Oath to him, so she shouldn't be looking to court death herself. (End of chapter)
