Zhao Tianyang's murky eyes stared fixedly at Su Ji, as if trying to dissect him from the inside out and see right through him.
Zhang Kui stood to the side, his breathing subconsciously slowing down. He could sense that something was wrong with Zhao Tianyang's mood.
Su Ji still wore that harmless, honest look on his face, but his mind was racing.
Dissipating the baleful aura.
This matter could be considered big or small.
On the small side, it was just a special physique, a natural gift.
On the big side, it could involve secrets of cultivation methods, bloodlines, or even destiny.
In a place like this where a human life was worth less than a dog's, exposing too many trump cards was no different from stripping naked and throwing oneself into a pack of wolves.
He had to find an excuse that was bluffing enough but wouldn't attract too much covetousness.
In a flash of lightning, a word popped into Su Ji's mind.
Adding a touch of embarrassment to the honest smile on his face, he scratched his head.
Um... Old Zhao, actually... I am a Flawless Physique, so when the baleful aura meets me, it naturally...
As soon as he spoke, Su Jiu's voice rang out in Su Ji's mind, laced with panic.
Senior Brother, don't—!
Since ancient times, the Flawless Physique has only appeared in women, you...
Too late.
Before Su Jiu could finish her sentence, an incredibly mocking sneer squeezed out of Zhao Tianyang's shriveled throat.
Flawless Physique?
For the first time, such a vivid expression appeared on Zhao Tianyang's heavily wrinkled old face.
He looked at Su Ji with a gaze like he was looking at an overestimating clown.
Fake!
Zhao Tianyang's voice suddenly turned sharp, directly exposing his lie.
The Flawless Physique is born carrying the most yin and pure energy of heaven and earth. Since ancient times, it has only appeared in the bodies of women!
You, a full-grown man, are telling me you have the Flawless Physique?
Are you... playing me for a fool?
The last few words were squeezed out through Zhao Tianyang's teeth almost syllable by syllable. A chilling coldness instantly enveloped the area.
Beside them, Zhang Kui's face instantly turned pale.
He glared fiercely at Su Ji, his eyes seeming to say: You kid don't trust me?! Why aren't you telling the truth at a time like this?
Su Ji also cursed inwardly.
Damn it!
How could it be such a coincidence?!
He just casually made up a seemingly reasonable explanation.
Who would have thought there was such a bizarre gender restriction setting?
Kid!
Zhao Tianyang's voice pulled Su Ji back from his chagrin.
He approached step by step, and at this moment, that scrawny figure exuded a mountain-like oppressive feeling.
This might be your only chance to walk out of this hellhole.
Zhao Tianyang's voice was suppressed and hoarse, carrying an unquestionable resolution.
I can't be bothered to beat around the bush with you anymore. Saying you'll get your freedom back in four hundred years is all fucking bullshit!
In here, you simply can't live for four hundred years!
The erosion of the baleful aura, the draining of the spirit-locking collar, the heavy manual labor... Long before four hundred years, your entire cultivation base, along with your flesh and blood essence, will be squeezed dry, turning you into a pile of dry bones on this wasteland!
Zhao Tianyang's murky eyes suddenly turned to Zhang Kui, questioning sharply.
Kuizi, did you say something to him?!
Startled by this sudden question, Zhang Kui shuddered and hurriedly waved his hands.
N-no, Old Zhao! How would I dare to speak nonsense!
Zhao Tianyang snorted coldly, seemingly also feeling that Zhang Kui didn't have the guts, before shifting his gaze back to Su Ji.
I don't care how you found out, but since you have such means, you should understand your own value.
He extended a withered finger and pointed to the deepest part of the mine, that area shrouded in thick black mist where even light could not penetrate.
I'm guessing Kuizi told you that buried deep within this mining area is a fully mastered Flawless Physique Immortal Venerable...
As the saying goes, out of the depth of misfortune comes bliss, and things turn into their opposites when they reach the extreme...
After she died, her Flawless Physique disintegrated and transformed into this forbidden zone of baleful aura, yet it still retained its characteristic of being untouched by all magic and invulnerable to all evil.
Therefore, even these Black-veined Irons derived from the periphery carry the spirit-repelling characteristic.
Su Ji and Su Jiu were both stunned.
Kuizi, kid, I advise you two to tell the truth.
Zhao Tianyang's patience seemed to have run out, and murderous intent was fully revealed in his murky eyes.
You should be clear about my methods.
Don't say I didn't warn you!
Su Ji felt a layer of cold sweat seeping out on his back.
This old geezer was completely done acting and was laying his cards on the table.
But fuck, how was he supposed to explain?
Could he say he cultivated the Desolate Meteor Fallen Dragon Art?
He might as well slit his own throat right now...
From the story Zhang Kui told, it wasn't hard for Su Ji to guess...
If this matter were exposed...
Forget about Nascent Soul or Soul Formation cultivators, an Immortal Venerable would be blocking his door immediately.
This mining area, oh no, probably hundreds of thousands of miles around would be beaten into ruins...
Just as Su Ji's mind was racing, thinking up his next lie, he suddenly recalled the conversation Su Jiu had with him a few days ago.
Senior Brother, I feel... I seem to be able to sense something.
I can feel that beneath this wasteland, something seems to be surging. It's very faint, yet massive.
Su Ji's body suddenly stiffened.
An incredibly absurd yet perfectly reasonable thought, like a bolt of lightning, pierced through all the fog in his mind.
Fuck!
Could it be... a bloodline connection?!
But now was not the time to think about this question...
The most important thing right now was how to face the old man Zhao's questioning...
Fortunately...
The actual owner of the Flawless Physique spoke up.
Only, there was a bit of reluctance in her voice...
Senior Brother... actually...
for mindless slaughter, this isn't for you.] My name is Ye Shu, and I'm a transmigrator. It seems I'm supposed to be the protagonist, but that feels pretty unlikely. This world has been invaded by a system. The antagonists on the other side have suddenly become pure, flawless saints. The female leads have been force-fed the so-called "original plot," making them think they've been reborn. Now, everyone thinks I'm scum. Including the old lady in my ring. And here I am, in the Monster Beast Mountain Range, braising pork. To put my situation in perspective— It's as if, the moment Xiao Yan stepped into the Monster Beast Mountain Range, the Soul Emperor already knew he would become the Flame Emperor, and Yao Lao had been turned to the enemy's side. I have nothing right now. Oh wait, that's not true. I do have a white-haired loli child-bride who's the Heavenly Dao, and her only skill is acting cute. So, tell me guys... what are my chances of making it to the end?
