Chapter 121 - Brother Gave The Order: Kill!

Two days later.

In the afternoon, Feng Yu Die was sitting in front of the dressing table in Xiao Yunluo's bedroom, allowing her to fix her face and hair.

"Sister Xiao, make it look a little haggard but not too obvious."

"I know!"

Xiao Yunluo helplessly replied. She mixed some pale makeup powder on the back of her hand, picked up the brush, and lightly applied it to Feng Yu Die's cheeks.

Under Xiao Yunluo's makeup skills, Feng Yu Die soon became haggard, as if her whole energy had been hollowed out.

The eye sockets were sunken and the cheekbones sharp, as if she had been seriously ill for many years.

Feng Yu Die picked up the bronze mirror, turned her head from side to side, and praised Xiao Yunluo. "Sister Xiao, you are so amazing..."

"What are you saying? It's just makeup, just putting some black and white powder on your face." Xiao Yunluo put down the powder brush and asked, "Why did you want me to make you like this?"

"Hehe... this is called the Arrogance Strategy!"

"Arrogance Strategy?"

Feng Yu Die rubbed her nose and explained with a savvy air. "Didn't I eat the corpse soul for you the day before yesterday? It's been two days, and I'm supposed to be haggard. When I pick up Sister Li later, the demonic cultivator will see me like this and will definitely think that her corpse soul is still attached to me. So, when the fight starts, she won't care about me, and I'll be able to sneak up on her, heh heh..."

Xiao Yunluo understood what she meant and asked, "Did Ye Anping teach you to do this?"

"What?"

"Since when do you pay attention to such details?" Xiao Yunluo put her hands on her hips and smiled. "It must have been Ye Anping who reminded you."

"..."

Feng Yu Die blinked. Was she that stupid in Xiao Yunluo's mind?

She would have done this anyway...

Well, who would have expected Xiao Tian to remind her about it first?

---"Yu Die, you should ask Miss Xiao to do your makeup before you go to Miss Li."

---"Ah? Makeup? What for?"

---"When that Wu Yue sees that you're still fine after being infected by the corpse soul, she'll definitely wonder what happened and will be on guard then. After all, she is a Ghost cultivator in the Core Formation stage. If you can't sneak up on her unexpectedly, it will be very troublesome."

Feng Yu Die didn't say anything more and shrugged slightly. She then picked up her storage bag and checked it.

"Pills... talismans... well, everything is ready. Sister Xiao, please be careful while I'm away. Don't let other demonic cultivators take advantage of my absence."

"I got it!"

Xiao Yunluo frowned, then took out a bottle of pills from her storage bag and gave it to her.

"Here."

Wu Yue cupped her hands, then summoned her flying sword and stepped on it.

Three people on two swords rose in the air and traveled in a straight line toward the Trinity Lakeshore outside Duchun City. Xiao Tian also emerged from Feng Yu Die's soul realm, sat on her shoulders, and said nothing. She watched Wu Yue's actions closely to prevent her from attacking Feng Yu Die during the journey.

After flying for about half an hour, they landed by a lake with calm water.

Li Longling seemed to rarely come to this place. After stepping down from Feng Yu Die's arms, she grabbed her sleeve nervously.

"Sister Feng, are we there yet?"

"There's a pavilion up front; my brother is waiting there."

"Oh..."

Li Longling pursed her lips and nodded. Then, with Feng Yu Die's support, she slowly walked to a lakeside pavilion not far ahead.

Ye Anping was sitting alone in the pavilion at this time. When he saw Feng Yu Die and the others approaching, he stood up with a smile and cupped his hands. "Miss Li, I am Ye Anping. Please come into the pavilion, and let's have a chat."

Li Longling was a little surprised to hear the voice of a teenager as she had been imagining a mature man, but she immediately saluted back. "Greetings, Master Ye."

After the exchange of pleasantries, Feng Yu Die, who was standing next to Wu Yue, winked at Ye Anping, sending him a message: Can I do it? When are we taking action? Now?

When he saw her current sickly makeup, Ye Anping was a little confused about why she looked like this, but after thinking about it, he came up with some speculations. It seemed that she and Wu Yue had already had an encounter.

That was pretty smart, but he wasn't fooled... Ye Anping sighed softly and shook his head slightly, signaling: Wait!

Feng Yu Die blinked in response: Alright!

After Wu Yue and Li Longling entered the pavilion, Ye Anping took the initiative to pour a cup of tea for Li Longling and then said, "Miss Li, I won't beat around the bush."

"Well, Master Ye, please tell me why you invited me here."

"I just wanted to treat you to a cup of tea."

Li Longling was stunned and tilted her head. "A cup of tea? But... Sister Feng said that you..."

"Miss Li, I'm sorry."

"Eh?"

Ye Anping suddenly reached out across the stone table in front of him, grabbed her by the shoulders, and forcefully pulled her off the stone bench while shouting, "Kill her!"

Almost simultaneously with his words, Feng Yu Die was already holding the sword in hand, approaching Wu Yue from the side.

"That's the word I've been waiting for!"

For a split second, Wu Yue didn't react because she hadn't expected something like this to happen at all.

"What?!"

And in the same split second.

Sa---

The sword wind suddenly rose in the pavilion like the head of a fierce dragon!
