Chapter 596: 302: Demon Princess!
At that moment, as the smoke gradually faded away, Lord Suo Lun could finally see the face of Princess Yuanyuan of Yaozhou clearly.
It was a face that ensnared the soul with its seduction.
Whether it was her facial features, her eyes, or her figure, it all reached the ultimate level of enchantment.
She was very beautiful, even more beautiful than Gui Qinshao. But because of her flirtatious manner, it even made people overlook her stunning beauty.
Lord Suo Lun had never seen such a woman before, as if even the tips of her eyelashes were soaked with allure and charm.
In his mind, Lord Suo Lun pondered whether this woman was seeking revenge for Ashi Luo. What exactly was her relationship with Ashi Luo? Lovers?
"Do you have any last words? Speak now, for you only get one sentence," said Princess Yuanyuan of Yaozhou. "After you’ve spoken, you can be on your way."
Of course, she wouldn’t kill him. From the hatred in her eyes, it was evident she wouldn’t easily take his life. Otherwise, the dark toxic smoke from before would have been enough to make his body rot and die a miserable death.
"I have no last words," Lord Suo Lun said.
Yuanyuan raised a seductive eyebrow and sheathed her demon blade, "Smart, knowing that I wouldn’t kill you so easily. I paid a huge price to capture you; how could I bear to kill you just like that? Even a cat doesn’t immediately bite the mouse it catches; it prefers to play with it for a while. I’m going to torment you to the point where you would neither want to live nor be able to die, to make you regret ever living in this world. That way, my name as a demoness would not be in vain."
Her tone was still alluring and tempting, but the meaning behind it was chilling to the bone.
Then, with a glance from her eyes, deep with enchantment, she said, "Next up, welcome to hell!"
With a flick of her jade hand, a strange fragrance entered his nostrils, and Lord Suo Lun fainted.
...
When Lord Suo Lun awoke again, he found himself on a huge ship.
It was a very, very large ship, almost without any rocking, even larger than the thousand-ton flagship of Rock Island, and he felt barely any movement on the sea.
The cabin he was in was also luxurious, as if he were in the clouds.
Whether it was the carpet on the floor, the blankets covering him, or the utensils in the cabin, everything was worth a fortune.
However, Lord Suo Lun’s attention was quickly drawn away by a breathtaking figure.
Princess Yuanyuan of Yaozhou was sitting in front of a huge mirror, combing her hair.
"This Magic Mirror was bought from your family, costing over a thousand Gold Coins," Yuanyuan said with a smile as she turned her head around.
Seeing her face, Lord Suo Lun was taken aback.
Is this Magic?
Because today’s Yuanyuan seemed like a completely different person.
Her face was still that utterly beautiful face, but the previously seductive charm had vanished entirely, replaced by an aura of dignified and intelligent grace, resembling a well-read noble lady skilled in poetry, music, chess, and painting.
This refined and scholarly demeanor was not inferior to Tutor Niya, although this face was much more beautiful than Professor Niya’s.
Before, her eyebrows and the corners of her eyes were slightly upturned, full of seductive charm.
Today, however, her doe eyes and willow-leaf eyebrows were like distant mountains, making her seem truly like a noble lady from a scholarly family.
What’s more, the dress she wore was now white, and although it still revealed an attractive figure, it was no longer provocatively enchanting, only graceful and captivating.
She really knows the art of enchantment!
From inside out, it was as though she had truly become someone else.
"Mr. Suo Lun, you must be curious as to why I am seeking revenge for Ashi Luo, am I right?" Yuanyuan asked. "You might be wondering if I was his lover?"
"That was my guess," Lord Suo Lun said.
"No," Yuanyuan said. "He was my friend, my very best friend. He attempted suicide many times in Yaozhou, and each time I was the one who saved his life. I don’t have many friends; he was virtually the only one."
Lord Suo Lun could imagine, this woman before him was a demoness, and Ashi Luo was a devilish character, so the two of them must have gotten along excellently.
Then, Princess Yuanyuan of Yaozhou continued, "Do you know who sent me to kill you, who told me it was you who caused Ashi Luo’s death?"
"Zhi Li," Lord Suo Lun said.
"Yes, it was him," Yuanyuan said. "Moreover, to kill you, I mobilized hundreds of experts from Yaozhou, dozens of Magicians, and countless treasures, at a tremendous cost. For this, Zhi Li paid a price of more than ninety thousand Gold Coins, equivalent to a province’s annual taxation. He really is generous. Yet, to be able to kill you, it’s utterly worth it."
Lord Suo Lun thought, if Zhi Yan had followed him back to Tianshui City, would this ambush from Yaozhou have succeeded?
"You’re certainly wondering if Zhi Yan were with you to protect you, whether we would have succeeded, aren’t you?" Princess Yuanyuan of Yaozhou asked.
Lord Suo Lun got a start, as this ever-changing sprite seemed almost like a mind reader.
"Zhi Yan is a highly skilled warrior, and since she came from the Dragon Temple, she could sense our presence from thousands of meters away. So, if she had been with you, we wouldn’t have set up this ambush, and you would not have fallen into my hands. Unfortunately, Zhi Yan stayed in Zhi Du having a lovely chat with Huai Bingyi, momentarily putting your safety aside," said Yuanyuan.
Yuanyuan added, "Of course, Zhi Li paid such a high price for me to kill you, but I’m not willing to do it straightaway. I want to have my fun first, play until my interest wanes, and then kill you."
She quickly finished combing her hair into a very ladylike style.
"They say you are very intelligent, Lord Suo Lun," Yuanyuan said. "Among the men I’ve met, two are incredibly clever."
