Cooperation

"Medusa, do you want to die?"

As Ye Shu's icy voice rang out, the originally ambiguous atmosphere in the room completely dissipated, replaced by a killing intent as heavy and stagnant as crude oil.

This drastic change in attitude made Medusa freeze for a moment.

Surprisingly, she did not struggle.

But this was definitely not because she was afraid of Ye Shu, or intimidated by his imposing manner.

Rather, it was because when she prepared to reach out and strangle his neck again, she suddenly realized something was wrong.

Why did she keep thinking about strangling this kid to death?

Do you know how absurd this is?

Suffocating a cultivator to death was as foolish as trying to poison a Calamity Poison Body.

She clearly only needed to move her little hand to crush his head like a watermelon. There was no need for such trouble, exposing her body and letting him take all the advantage.

It was as if she had completely forgotten about this.

No, this was very wrong.

Someone had tampered with her divine soul.

Medusa's mind raced, and she quickly found the problem. She frantically inspected her own soul and finally, deep within her weakened divine soul, found a trace of an aura that did not belong to her.

That was... Danxia's soul power.

"That bitch..."

Medusa gritted her teeth. Sure enough, it wasn't that simple. That woman had actually planted a restriction in her divine soul.

Her eyes turned fierce, and her right hand fiercely broke free from his grip.

Then, she threw a punch!

This punch was as fast as lightning. With her Void Return Realm physical body, she could definitely blow Ye Shu's head off.

However, the fist suddenly lost its power when it touched Ye Shu's cheek, sticking to his face like a falling leaf, looking exactly like a lover's caress.

Ye Shu: "?"

He glanced at the little hand caressing him, looking completely bewildered.

"What are you doing?"

"N-nothing." Medusa withdrew her small hand as if electrocuted, her pretty face slightly flushed, her mind spinning rapidly.

As expected, the restriction in her body was affecting her behavior.

Any thought of wanting to kill this little thief would be instinctively blocked.

Fortunately, this guy didn't seem to know this.

Thinking of this, Medusa forced herself to remain calm, refusing to talk about her recent gaffe, and instead stared coldly at his hand holding hers, saying in a deep voice.

"Are you threatening this Queen?"

"You can understand it that way."

Seeing that the other party remained silent about it, Ye Shu also couldn't be bothered to argue.

The most urgent task was to resolve this fatal crisis.

His expression was calm as he said lightly, "If you insist on killing me, I can guarantee that you definitely won't survive tonight."

"Heh."

Medusa sneered, glancing at him disdainfully. "What makes you say that? Even if this Queen's evolution is currently incomplete, I am still a genuine Void Return Realm great demon. As long as I want to leave, who in the entire Eastern Wasteland can stop this Seat?"

"Then, what if this person is Lin Heming?"

Ye Shu stared fixedly into Medusa's eyes, enunciating every word, "This is the territory of the Qingxuan Sect. Are you sure you can swagger away after killing me?"

He was gambling.

Gambling that during Medusa's slumber, she did not know the fact that Lin Heming had already left the Qingxuan Sect.

Gambling that Lin Heming's strength was enough to make her wary.

"Lin Heming?!"

Medusa's pupils contracted violently.

There was no one she feared in the entire Eastern Wasteland.

But if that person made a move, she would probably only survive one strike.

And then be beaten into snake soup on the second strike.

Seeing the person beneath him trembling with dilated pupils, looking like a mouse that had seen a cat, Ye Shu finally let out a slow sigh of relief.

It seemed he had gambled right!

He slightly raised his head, his hands propped up by Medusa's ears, staring down at her from above. "Kill me, and you won't be able to escape either. Don't kill me, and we can both live."

"Hmph! Sounds nice, but why should I trust you?"

Medusa snorted coldly.

"Dare you say you have no killing intent towards me? If I let you go right now, and you turn around and call Lin Heming, wouldn't this Queen be throwing herself into the net?"

She struggled to raise her hands and grabbed Ye Shu's neck.

She used this to add some non-existent confidence.

Xiaobai, who was sitting to the side, was already dumbfounded. She stared blankly at these two naked people; those who didn't know better would think these two were flirting.

Is this considered NTR or what?

Obviously, Ye Shu and Medusa were essentially the same kind of people, and trust was exactly what their kind lacked the most.

"Actually, I have the chance to kill you right now."

After a long silence, Ye Shu took out a jade pendant and pressed it against Medusa's flat chest.

The jade pendant was warm and smooth, yet carried a sharp sword intent.

His gaze was open and candid, as if saying: I have already shown my sincerity, now it's your turn.

"Do you believe that I can kill you before you even make a move?" Medusa's eyes flashed with a hint of dread, yet she still replied, unwilling to show weakness.

"............"

Damn it, she still likes to talk back.

Ye Shu looked speechlessly at Medusa beneath him, who was acting like a child. Why did her mind become smaller when her body shrank?

"Then what do you want?"

He sighed somewhat helplessly. "I must remind you that you don't have much time left. If I don't leave the cabin by morning, the others will notice something is wrong."

"I know that without you telling me."

Medusa's gaze was full of resentment.

"Then let's just drag this out. The worst that can happen is we die together." Ye Shu acted like a complete rascal, handing all the choices over to Medusa.

As a gambler, Ye Shu deeply understood a principle—

The fewer trump cards you have, the more calm you must appear.

Your opponent will automatically fill in the blanks for you.

Both of them held fake chips, attempting to gain more benefits in this confrontation.

Meanwhile, Ye Shu, this pervert, had already begun to carefully scrutinize the cute little loli beneath him with an appreciative gaze.

Golden vertical pupils, crimson hair like a waterfall, skin white with a hint of pink, her whole body drenched in sweat. Her long wet hair clung to her body, with a few mischievous strands sticking to the corner of her mouth, trembling with her breaths.

Everything about the young girl was completely taken in by him.

Like a flower bud ready to bloom, delicate and dripping with beauty, making one unable to resist wanting to take a bite.

"There are many Dao companions in this world who probably aren't as honest and bare with each other as we are," Ye Shu suddenly spoke.

"You bastard! Can you stop looking?"

Medusa bit her lip, feeling uncomfortable all over from his stare. She couldn't help but shift her body, but the result scared her so much that she instantly froze.

T-t-this bastard!!!

How dare he?

Finally, under Ye Shu's unbridled gaze, Medusa admitted defeat. She forced down her shame and spoke:

"You bastard, stop looking!"

"This Queen can spare your life, but... we must cooperate. We need to sign a Shared Destiny Contract."

"A Shared Destiny Contract?"

Ye Shu was taken aback. "What is that?"

"Ignorant fool," Medusa mocked him. "A Shared Destiny Contract means that both parties cannot harm each other and must support one another. This includes any form of attack, framing, or betrayal. Violators will suffer a backlash; at worst, they will die, and at best, their cultivation foundation will be completely destroyed."

"Then wouldn't it be fine if we just swear a Heavenly Dao Oath?"

Ye Shu was a bit puzzled.

"A Heavenly Dao oath?"

Medusa sneered. "People have found countless loopholes in that kind of thing ages ago. It is completely useless. Only a naive rookie would believe in such crap."

Ye Shu's mouth twitched.

Was it really a good idea to say that right to the Heavenly Dao's face?

Sure enough, Xiaobai was trembling with anger. "It is all because the hearts of these guys are too sinister! Every single one of them loves playing word games! And now they have the nerve to blame me, the Heavenly Dao!"

"Damn it, damn it, damn it, damn it!!!"

Ye Shu ignored her furious stomping. Instead, he pondered carefully for a moment before giving a serious nod.

"Alright, I agree."

The Day I Died, the Whole Sect Watched My Senior Sister Go on a Rampage

ive and Ruthless] Before his transmigration, Ye Xuan was playing a game called "Severing Emotions to Attain the Dao."

There was only one method to conquer them: stay unwaveringly by their side, then die at a critical moment, driving them to madness after losing the protagonist. The higher their level of regret, the higher the player's score. To dominate the server, Ye Xuan conquered all the bad women. In the early stages, he showered them with boundless tenderness, only to choose to sacrifice himself for them later, making them weep bitterly and drown in regret. Among them were: Xia Lengyue, the unfaithful immortal wife who chased after powerful men and discarded her husband like trash. Ye Qingcheng, the Demonic Venerable of the Joyous Union Sect, who appeared pure and innocent but was, in reality, promiscuous. Wu Lingxiao, the Empress of the Great Xia Dynasty, who lusted after men and loved maintaining a harem. Bai Qiangu of the Endless Demonic Sect: a bloodthirsty mass murderer. However, when the protagonist transmigrated into the game world, he made a horrifying discovery. Eight hundred years had already passed. The bad women he had conquered had now each become deities and revered ancestors. Faced with the endless stream of toxic women coming for him, Ye Xuan could only rely on his god-tier acting skills to carve a path of survival through this world of treacherous women.
