Chapter 302: I Want to Read Your Mind (Part 2)
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
After Liu Sanniang finished speaking, Wu Yu thought he had heard wrongly. He was stunned. “What did you say?”
Looking at Wu Yu, Liu Sanniang repeated calmly. “I said that I want to read your mind. This is my request.”
Wu Yu looked like he was put on the spot. He forced a smile. “Miss Liu, are you really not going to consider any other requests? I can help you with anything. Money or fame, whatever it is, I can satisfy you.”
He looked at Liu Sanniang, not believing that this was a request from her. How could a person not have any ambition for money and fame?
He had seen too many people. The poor, the rich, the good, and the evil. Everyone wanted something. The poor wanted money. The rich wanted more money. The sick wanted health. The infertile women wanted children. The young women wanted to marry good husbands. The cultivators wanted to be believed in by everyone.
He had thought that Liu Sanniang would ask for a lot of things, but the only thing he did not expect was to have his mind read by her.
The expression on Wu Yu’s face underwent a drastic change.
Liu Sanniang remained calm all along. “Didn’t you say that as long as I give you a sip of water and a bite of food, you’ll agree to anything?”
Wu Yu smiled. “I didn’t say no. I’m just a little surprised.”
Wu Yu looked at Liu Sanniang and recalled that when she was in the Third Prince’s mansion, she had tried to read Miao Yin’s mind, but she could see anything. She was probably not as powerful as he thought.
She couldn’t even see through Miao Yin. How could she see through him?
At the thought of this, Wu Yu smiled. “I said that I would agree to anything. I just want to remind you. Miss Liu, have you really thought it through? There won’t be such an opportunity again. I can even help you become the empress if you want. Are you really not going to consider it?”
It was impossible for people to be without ambition. In the past, he only needed to look at people to know what they wanted. Liu Sanniang was different, but he did not believe that she had no ambitions.
Liu Sanniang replied readily. “I’ve already thought it through.”
Wu Yu looked at Liu Sanniang and said, “I just have to extend my hand, right?”
Liu Sanniang nodded.
Wu Yu extended his hand. He was actually not worried. Liu Sanniang could not even see through Miao Yin, so how could she see through him? His power was far greater than Miao Yin’s.
Chu Yan took out a handkerchief and covered Wu Yu’s wrist.
Wu Yu revealed a lewd smile. He had been living in poverty all his life. If not for the fact that he had used a forbidden technique, he would have died long ago. After living for most of his life, he didn’t even know what it was like to touch a woman.
Looking at Liu Sanniang’s slender fingers, he almost drooled.
Liu Sanniang gently placed her fingers on Wu Yu’s wrist. Her warm power was like water, wrapping Wu Yu up.
Feeling comfortable, Wu Yu closed his eyes and took two deep breaths. Such gentle power was what he had dreamed of. It was so comfortable that he felt like he was ascending to heaven. The faint fragrance at the tip of his nose was probably her body fragrance. It smelt so fragrant.
No matter how warm Liu Sanniang’s power was, he did not relax his guard. He had put up a black and impenetrable fortress that Liu Sanniang couldn’t invade.
Liu Sanniang knew that she had to be patient. Wu Yu was powerful, but she wasn’t weak either.
She was the only one in the world who had awakened eight senses and could use everything in this world to her advantage.
“Miss Liu, I’ve done what I promised you. It’s time for you to let go. I know you want to look into Miss Miao Yin. I can help you. You just need to pay a little. I guarantee that Miao Yin will kneel in front of you and beg for mercy.”
Wu Yu opened his eyes and looked at Liu Sanniang. He was no longer afraid. Liu Sanniang was not yet strong enough to break through the mental fortress he had set up.
She was really a treasure. At such a young age, she was already so strong. If he could obtain her life, he would definitely be able to escape this damn fate.
Wu Yu looked at Liu Sanniang with a smile, waiting for her to let go.
Liu Sanniang looked at Wu Yu, who seemed to have regained his vitality. The layers of black aura covering his face gradually dissipated to reveal a readable face.
“You should have died a long time ago. This life of yours is borrowed.”
Wu Yu was supposed to live a short and poor life, plagued by illness, but he managed to sustain his life by absorbing the life-span of others.
Wu Yu revealed a surprised look. “You can read faces?”
He thought he had concealed his face well so that no one could read it. However, Liu Sanniang managed to read his face surprisingly accurately, which made him instantly vigilant.
He tugged his hand and frowned. “Miss Liu, if you give me a little of your life span, I’ll do what I promised. Losing some life span won’t affect you at all.”
Wu Yu struggled, but he felt as if a force had locked him in place, making him unable to move. His face turned fierce as he warned. “If you don’t let go, don’t blame me for being rude.”
Wu Yu immediately gathered his power into the shape of a dagger to stab Liu Sanniang while she retracted the warm power and released an overwhelming force in the shape of a fiery red sword.
Wu Yu narrowed his eyes in shock. “Your power.”
Liu Sanniang had learned to control her power well. She could turn it into warm water or raging inferno that burned everything. Wu Yu’s heart tightened and he stopped suppressing his power. He knew that he had encountered a tough opponent.
Liu Sanniang’s power was very strange. Although he was powerful, he wasn’t entirely confident in defeating her.
Liu Sanniang did not speak. Instead, she gathered her power and resisted.
Wu Yu shouted ferociously. “Go to hell.”
Liu Sanniang felt a sharp pain in her internal organs and the taste of blood in her throat. She did not let go of Wu Yu’s hand but held it tightly.
Wu Yu was very strong, but there was always a limit to his power. However, she was different. As she became stronger, everything in the world could be used by her, including the power that belonged to Wu Yu.
