Yu Longting imprisoned me in his arms, not giving me any chance to escape, and he wouldn't even let me have a mirror, his tone reveling in the drama.
My mentality was nearly exploding, my hands feeling my cheeks, "Have I become incredibly ugly now?? How hideous? Crooked mouth, slanted eyes? Triangular eyes??"
No wonder my facial bones were in so much pain just now, this was the pace at which my bone structure was being remolded!!
Have I already turned into some kind of ugly monster?
Then Yu Longting and Master, having looked at me for so long, must have been... assaulted by the sight...
The more I thought about it, the more my scalp tingled, and even the visage of my grandfather appeared in my mind!!! And Yan Hua's face, which remains devastatingly beautiful even in old age.
Why hadn't I thought of it, my grandmother being so beautiful and proud, how could she have fallen for a man who wasn't good-looking?
Right now, all I wanted to know was what exactly had happened to my face. For original chapters go to novel⸺fire.net
"Wanwan, you were ugly to begin with, there's no more room for you to get uglier," Yu Longting pinched my chin, kissed my lips without hesitation, "Haven't you heard what your master said? Only those who are good-looking will be greatly affected in terms of appearance."
"So, the appearance of ugly people won't change?" I harbored a glimmer of hope, blinking at him.
Yu Longting assured, "Yes."
"You scared me." I patted my chest in relief.
Yet something still didn't feel right in my mind; if my appearance hadn't changed.
Why then was my face bone hurting so damn much just now?
It felt like a titanic change akin to the shifting of oceans and mulberry fields in the primeval universe, a total transformation of bone structure.
Indeed, a man's mouth spews deceitful lies.
I was nearly hoodwinked into believing it.
Just as I was about to denounce him.
Yu Longting took out his phone, made a call, "Lin Huan, it's me."
The call lasted only half a minute, he quickly explained my situation to Lin Huan.
After exchanging information about my condition, he quickly came to a conclusion about the cause.
And learned that Tianying Village's Yan family had a method for treatment.
"Lin Huan said that the likelihood of Blood-weeping Syndrome manifesting in people of the Lin family is incredibly slim," Yu Longting cut off the phone, his gaze sweeping over me and Zhang Zidao with only the chill of a cold room emanating, "In the condition where the Life Lamp is extremely weak, one has to commit an act that severely damages Yin Virtue."
Indeed, for these two events to happen at the same time was next to impossible.
At this "thump" in my heart, I felt a great sense of foreboding.
This... Black Snake was about to discover the truth...
"Oh? Is that so? My disciple is such a good person, would she do something that damages Yin Virtue?" Zhang Zidao's gaze flickered, he deflected, talking of other things.
Elder Zhang!! My ancestor!!
If you can't lie, then just don't speak!
I shrank like a quail, stealing a glance at Yu Longting's austere profile.
Immediately feeling guilty, I lowered my head; even if he were smarter, he couldn't possibly guess... that the truth was like that, right...
It would require quite the stretch of imagination...
Yu Longting enunciated every word, "Recently, Su Wan killed the daughter of Ten Thousand Poison Hall, Zhao Zheng."
"Oh, so the reason my good disciple fell ill... was because of that incident, what a coincidence," Zhang Zidao laughed dryly.
Yu Longting continued to unravel it layer by layer, like peeling an onion's skin, a Holmes grasping at the truth, "With Ten Thousand Poison Hall committing countless evils, killing her was more likely to pile up Yin Virtue, unless..."
"Unless she was a great benefactor, and we killed the wrong person," Zhang Zidao tried to cover up his blunder with a snicker, planning a feint to confuse Yu Longting.
In reality, such tricks,
In front of Yu Longting,
Were no different from a clown's antics.
Crows flew overhead, I couldn't bear to look anymore, covering my face, marked with bloodstains, with one hand, "Barbecued, caught by the short hairs."
"Unless, Zhao Zheng was an Immortal, no wonder her ashes are neither human nor demon." Yu Longting glared fiercely at my face, his expression nearly chewing me up. He then turned to Zhang Zidao, "If Su Wan hadn't fallen ill, were you two planning on keeping such a colossal disaster from me indefinitely? Very impressive!"
No one's wits could surpass Yu Longting's!!
