Chapter 540: 277: The Death of Ashi Luo! (Part 3) (Extremely Important)_2

Ashimo’s expression trembled as he said, "My, my longevity does not rely on your demon blood, but on Master Zuo Qiu’s Taoist magic."

Ashi Luo said, "Have you found recently that when you wake up, there are a lot of gray hairs appearing on your head, several a day? Of course, you must have plucked them out in time. That is a sign that the power of the demon blood is about to deplete, and you need to take more."

Ashimo’s expression changed dramatically.

For some reason, he had been finding gray hairs every morning for the past few days. It started with one or two strands, then grew to more than a dozen. His heart filled with unease, he hurriedly plucked them out by the roots, then went to ask Zuo Qiu.

And Zuo Qiu said those gray hairs were substituting for his aging, a minimal price to pay for longevity.

He believed it at the time, but his heart was still fraught with anxiety. Now that Ashi Luo had revealed the truth, it was because the effects of the demon blood were about to deplete.

Ashi Luo said, "Father, do you wish to age overnight? Do you wish to abandon all your efforts at immortality?"

Of course, Ashimo didn’t want to, he would rather die than accept it.

"You don’t want to, right?" Ashi Luo said. "Then scram. Pretend as if you have seen nothing of what happened here."

Ashimo’s face trembled, caught in a difficult struggle and decision.

Ashi Liren looked at her father, her voice trembling as she said, "Father, don’t make another mistake."

Ashimo closed his eyes and said, "Liren, just endure for a little while, and it will be over. Moreover, such things are not uncommon; many nobles have done such things, even the royal family has, it’s just that none of it has leaked out. Rest assured no one will know. Now, I’m leaving."

Ashi Liren couldn’t believe her eyes, couldn’t believe that was her father, as tears fell from her eyes, one by one.

Ashi Luo sneered, "Father, are you staying to watch my good show?"

Ashimo covered his face with his hands and fled with all the experts as if flying.

He felt unbearably uncomfortable every second he stayed.

Suddenly, the room was left with only Suo Lun, Ashi Liren, and Ashi Luo.

...

Ashi Luo looked at Liren and said, "Sister, this is the father you had such high hopes for."

Ashi Liren shed tears that froze before they hit the ground.

In her beautiful eyes, there was no sign of life, not even anger—just staring at Ashi Luo.

Feeling Liren’s gaze, Ashi Luo’s heart trembled as he said, "Sister, don’t scare me."

"Ashi Luo, what do you want to do, come on," said Ashi Liren. "Since my Ashi Clan has become so tainted, we might as well descend to hell together; I can’t remain untouched by it."

Then, Ashi Liren closed her eyes and said, "Ashi Luo, you’ve longed for me, haven’t you, coveting me deeply? Come on then, come..."

Ashi Luo approached Liren, seeing her lifeless eyes, he reached out to lift her veil.

"Don’t lift my veil, or I won’t let you go even if I become a ghost," said Ashi Liren.

Ashi Luo withdrew his hand, looking somewhat listless.

"Sister, in your heart, I must be utterly despicable, worse than pigs and dogs, deserving the eighteenth layer of hell," Ashi Luo said with a laugh.

"It’s our entire Ashi Clan that is going to the eighteenth layer of hell," said Ashi Liren.

Ashi Luo said, "No, you are pure and flawless, perfectly unblemished. I should descend to the eighteenth layer of hell, and so should father. But you, you should be the happiest person in the world, and in heaven, you should become an Angel."

Ashi Liren said, "Betrayed by my own younger brother, abandoned by my biological father—I really am happy, aren’t I?"

Ashi Luo’s face trembled, his eyes full of tears as he said, "Yes, how evil I am. I’ve always told myself to be evil and unyielding, impervious to righteousness. In my life, I only do evil deeds, never good ones. So whatever I do, I have to under the guise of evil, including how I treat you."

He sat down in front of Liren and said, "Sister, in six days, I will chase after my destiny. But the only thing I can’t let go of is you. I... I’m obsessed with having you, of course, part of that is my evil desire, but... It’s more because I... I want to save you."

At these words, Ashi Liren shuddered.

Ashi Luo said, "You should remember, when that demon from the Demon Continent said they could cure your Dragon Yin Absolute Vein. But you had to become a disciple of the Demon Continent. His gaze at you back then was very evil, so you didn’t go, but I did!"

Taking a deep breath, Ashi Luo said, "Sister, do you know why I’m so high-ranking in the Demon Continent? Not a master but almost like one? Those high-ranking demon experts, they come and go at my bidding, countless treasures, countless beauties at my disposal—do you know how I acquired this status?"

Ashi Liren lifted her beautiful eyes, looking at Ashi Luo.

"By selling dignity and soul," said Ashi Luo emotionlessly. "I am the Monster Sect’s favorite male pet—oh right, he’s also a guy. I entered the Demon Continent at eleven, and on my second day, he ravaged me. That feeling was really... worse than death."

Ashi Liren’s gaze trembled again as more tears slid down.

Ashi Luo said, "Back then, he had many playthings. You can’t imagine just how evil, how terrifying that world is. Competing for favor, framing, tormenting... it happens every day. I was rather clever, but still, in the first year, I suffered numerous schemes and abuses, it was truly hell..."
