Chapter 151: Chapter 113 Let’s Work Together to Revive Lord Jie Luo (5)_2

"Lord Jie Luo, what else do you need me to do?" Asina spoke quickly, knowing that time was pressing.

"Soul Fragments, my Soul Fragments..." Jie Luo’s voice was hoarse, seemingly struggling to emit the low growl with his last bit of strength.

Soul Fragments, she remembered.

Asina’s eyes brimmed with tears as she climbed out of bed, planted a kiss on Qin Chu’s lips, then quickly donned her Magic Robe. At the doorway, she cast one more reluctant, tearful glance at the suffering Lord Jie Luo and left.

After Asina left, Qin Chu’s fingers twitched slightly, casting an illusion in the room which not even the True Eye could penetrate.

The real Qin Chu immediately recovered, stretched his body out forcefully. Indeed, today had been exceptionally busy.

Even for someone with Qin Chu’s Physical Strength, he felt a bit exhausted, his back aching.

Qin Chu pondered to himself whether he should visit the herb market tomorrow to see if he could buy some Moon Flower... Of course, he only wanted it for making tea and certainly not for any other nonsensical reasons.

...

It was only after leaving Qin Chu’s room that Asina realized she had forgotten to remove the True Eye from the bedroom.

If it were just Qin Chu, she could spy on him without restraint, but with Lord Jie Luo’s Residual Soul inside Qin Chu’s body, it felt somewhat improper to spy on Lord Jie Luo like this.

However, it was too late to go back and remove it.

Before her, the True Eye could see Qin Chu now standing still; then, after a few seconds, he jerked and suddenly lifted his head, his expression clearly one of confusion.

Asina felt like she could hear Qin Chu’s voice: "Eh? Where did Asina go?"

Seeing Qin Chu start scouring the room and even preparing to rush out the door, Asina hurriedly picked up her pace, limping towards the palace exterior.

So painful!

Asina’s lips trembled slightly.

It was supposed to be her most precious first time, something she had intended to savour with the man she loved most, Lord Jie Luo. Who could have imagined it turning out so embarrassingly?

That damned Qin Chu was to blame.

As soon as Asina left the palace, she saw a tall figure standing under a streetlamp in the distance, arms crossed, casually leaning against the lamppost— it was Catherine, seemingly waiting for her.

Asina frowned, dragging her weary body step by step toward Catherine.

Hearing the footsteps, Catherine lifted her eyes to glance at Asina. Simply from the way Asina walked, Catherine knew what had happened.

This damned Fox Spirit, she had indeed seduced the master.

Her gaze couldn’t hide the hostility.

Yet, that hostility to Asina seemed like Catherine’s discontent about someone else breaking her monopoly over Lord Jie Luo.

"It looks like you’ve also become a real woman," Catherine’s voice carried a hint of mockery.

"You seem pretty unsatisfied?" Asina raised an eyebrow, responding pointedly.

"How could I? Although I don’t like to see too many women around young master Jie Luo, at least for now, our goals align; we both want to see Lord Jie Luo resurrected soon," Catherine said with a huff.

"For that goal, even working with you is acceptable," Catherine said sharply.

Asina also let her eyelids droop, "All our sacrifices are for Lord Jie Luo."

After pausing for a moment, Asina spoke again, "So, should we notify the Hero Team to abandon the original plan? Currently, we just need to focus on finding Lord Jie Luo’s Soul Fragments and..."

"No." Before she could finish, she was interrupted by Catherine, "Lord Jie Luo never doubted that there was someone in the Hero Team plotting against him, but I am not so naive."

"As for me, there’s definitely no problem. After all, if I were the one who harmed Lord Jie Luo, I’ve had plenty of opportunities to act these past days."

Asina nodded, acknowledging that Catherine was not the traitor within their ranks.

"You’re clear too, considering you didn’t take any action during that great opportunity just now."

"But, I can’t trust the others. Lord Jie Luo didn’t tell you, did he? When Karsas and Rose Vesper were preparing the human head altar, we caught them in the act, and Karsas immediately attacked Qin Chu... But, who can guarantee that the attack was only aimed at Qin Chu and not at Lord Jie Luo’s Residual Soul within Qin Chu’s body?" Catherine said in a hushed voice.

Asina’s pupils constricted slightly. Karsas attacked Qin Chu?

Lord Jie Luo had not informed her of this matter... Ah, it must be because Lord Jie Luo did not want to suspect his former teammates. Even if he was betrayed and faced death, his soul remained just as kind.

"If we halt our plan now, we will inevitably be questioned about what happened. Do you plan to tell them that Lord Jie Luo’s Residual Soul has awakened?"

"Once the former murderer learns of this news, what do you think they would do?"

Asina’s gaze returned to normal. She turned her head to look at Catherine, seemingly surprised that this woman, who usually seemed reluctant to use her brain, was actually capable of such astuteness.

I’ve been the same, ever since unexpectedly running into Lord Jie Luo, my mind hasn’t been quite clear.

She shook her head and silently admonished herself that she could not afford to be outdone by Catherine.

"I understand... So, for now, we will work together, just the two of us?" Asina suddenly smiled as she said this.

"Yes, of course. But when facing the other members of the Hero Team, you need to be careful not to give anything away." Catherine said earnestly.

"You too."

"Hmph, that despicable Qin Chu will have to pay for his deeds sooner or later. He has no idea that Lord Jie Luo’s Residual Soul has already entered his body. When Lord Jie Luo fully awakens, that will be Qin Chu’s end!"

Catherine’s gaze turned fierce as she spoke in a heavy tone.

Whimpering internally, she lamented being forced by her master to speak such words. She genuinely did not wish to speak them; it was a desecration towards her master. She hoped her master would not blame her for this.

Catherine was praying.

Asina looked at Catherine, who was tightly clutching her fingers and trembling slightly, and let out a slight sigh. It seemed Catherine’s hatred for Qin Chu was indeed intense.

"You mustn’t lose control and kill Qin Chu. If he dies, Lord Jie Luo will die too." Asina warned.

"I understand..." Catherine took a deep breath, stilled her trembling body, and slowly, a smile appeared on her face: "I will definitely not kill him."

"All along, it’s been just me. Now that I finally have a companion, can I consider you my dear sister?"

Asina’s smile was full of charm:

"Of course, Sister Catherine."

"Then let us both work together for the complete resurrection of Lord Jie Luo!"
