Chapter 6136: It’s a Trap

Bam!

A black-red aura surged out of Baili Zilin’s body.

He quickly raised his cultivation to rank four True God level upon sensing something amiss with the situation, but even so, he still found himself unable to move.

“You...” Baili Zilin stared at Song Yun in fear.

He couldn’t sense Song Yun’s cultivation, but there was no doubt that Song Yun was far stronger than him.

Song Yun’s attack didn’t claim his life, but he gradually lost strength as she poured her martial power into his body.

“What’s your current cultivation level? What did you obtain from the Netherworld Tower? How did your cultivation suddenly grow by so much?!” Baili Zilin anxiously asked.

Song Yun didn’t answer his question. Instead, she eyed him coldly and said, “ Kneel and say you’ll never do it again.”

“What did you say?”

Baili Zilin couldn’t believe his ears.

“I’m telling you to kneel.”

“Audacious! Who do you think you are to command me to kneel?” Baili Zilin scoffed in disdain.

GAH!

Baili Zilin screamed as his face warped in pain.

It was as if the martial power Song Yun pumped into him had turned into countless venomous worms, torturing him from within. If Song Yun wanted to, she could have claimed his life now.

“My father won’t let you off if you dare kill me.” Baili Zilin glared at Song Yun.

“You think I dare not kill you? You must think that the Netherworld Sect belongs to your Baili Clan. You were the one who attacked me; it would be self-defense even if I killed you. Not to mention that I am not in a normal condition. It would be understandable if I fail to hold back and land a fatal blow while defending myself,” Song Yun sneered.

“You...” Baili Zilin panicked.

It was not just because Song Yun’s words made sense, but her cold gaze and murderous intent made him realize that she was capable of pulling it off.

“I have just proven my value to the Netherworld Sect, and I have the moral high ground in this situation too. Do you think the Netherworld Sect will side with me or a dead man?” Song Yun added.

Baili Zilin clenched his fists as his veins bulged out. However, he suppressed his anger and argued with an indignant voice, “Are you doing this because of Chu Feng? He’s just an outsider. We don’t have to do this!”

“We don’t have to do this? Baili Zilin, do I have to remind you of your purpose here?” Song Yun sneered.

Song Yun took out another pill, dissolved it into a surge of energy, and placed it against her neck. The strangulation mark slowly disappeared.

Seeing that, Baili Zilin took Song Yun’s pill.

He was angry that Song Yun had pulled one over him, but he was at fault here. Besides, it wouldn’t change a thing even if he divulged the truth about Song Yun. It might lead others to think that she was a scheming person, but that didn’t change the fault she was a prodigy.

The Netherworld Sect would continue to nurture her even if they found out she had feigned injury to benefit from this formation.

In contrast, his assault on Song Yun was a major violation.

He initially thought that he could at least coerce Song Yun into remaining silent even if he couldn’t get the Netherworld Tower’s secrets out of her. At least, he would be able to escape unscathed.

He didn’t expect the situation to spiral out of control.

It was to his advantage that Song Yun wanted to reconcile instead of pursuing this matter. He would have plenty of chances to deal with Song Yun in the future anyway, so there was no need to rush it.

Shoosh!

He took the pill and tossed it back to Song Yun.

Song Yun frowned, thinking that Baili Zilin was refusing to reconcile.

However, the latter reached into his Cosmos Sack and took out a pill with similar properties but was of higher quality.

“I have one.”

Baili Zilin activated the energy inside the pill and pressed it against the wound Song Yun had inflicted on him. His wounds were easy to heal even though Song Yun had inflicted a great deal of pain on him earlier.

“Did you prepare that to conceal what you were planning to do to me?” Song Yun asked with a smile.

Baili Zilin didn’t reply, for Song Yun was right.

Baili Zilin’s wounds quickly recovered, but standing up was still strenuous to him. Song Yun’s attacks didn’t leave many wounds on him, but it had affected his physical condition and it would take some time for him to recover.

“Return to your bed. I’ll call Chen Hui back,” Baili Zilin instructed.

He realized that Song Yun was standing at the palace entrance instead of returning to her bed.

“There’s no need for that. I’ll call them,” Song Yun said.

“Ah?” Baili Zilin was baffled.

As soon as Song Yun opened the door, she dashed out and screamed, “Save me, save me! Young master Zilin is after my life!”

Baili Zilin was horrified, especially when he saw Song Yun once more. The strangulation mark he had left on Song Yun had reappeared.

He had fallen for her trap!
