Don't be afraid, fairy, I'm blind

Chapter 491 Yu Wanyue's Tears
Yu Wanyue sat upright under the skylight, looking at You Su in a trance, then suddenly lowered her eyes and smiled softly:
"Master You, you are staring at me like this. Could it be that even my old-fashioned face is pleasing to the eye?"

When You Su came back to his senses, he met her teasing eyes and subconsciously looked away. He wanted to explain his departure, but he didn't expect this woman to sit so elegantly in the backlight. The broken golden feathers even had a more lonely and beautiful feeling than when they were in their prime. The so-called old-fashioned talk was even more groundless.

"I'm just thinking about how to deal with Yu Xiaoran."

"Master You's discrimination is too obvious." Yu Wanyue's fingertips traced the broken feathers on the tip of the wing. "Junior Sister Liu lamented her aging, and you tried to comfort her with such sweet words; I was grateful for the passing of time, but you avoided the topic. Although we were enemies in the past, we should be allies now."

You Su raised his eyebrows slightly, unmoved: "That's because Elder Liu's lament about aging is real, but your appreciation for the passing of time is fake. Besides, she is an elder I respect, how can you compare with her?"

Yu Wanyue sighed, as if feeling sad, "Yes, it is indeed a respected elder, every time he hit me, it was very important."

You Su didn't expect that this seemingly dignified woman would speak foul language after her rebirth. It really made him look at her with new eyes. When he was about to explain, he saw Yu Wanyue suddenly smiled and raised her eyes:

"Master You is so devoted to the snake tribe, is it really just for those two young ladies?"

"Of course." You Su did not want to hide the matter in front of the insider, "Ling Ruo and Xue Ruo are both my beloved ones, and the snake tribe let me live here, so I should repay them."

“Mr. You is so good at avoiding the important issues. I guess he has escaped criticism from his fellow Taoists many times with this skill?” Yu Wanyue’s golden eyelashes trembled slightly and a cunning look flashed in her pupils.

You Su's heart skipped a beat, and he said seriously, "I don't understand what you mean."

Having said that, he recalled the blush on the tips of the ears of Hongxiao, Xiaoling and other snake girls when they looked at him recently, as well as the panic of Elder Liu when he saw him and fled in a hurry.

He could naturally feel that the snake girls' enthusiasm towards him was gradually changing from before, but if he really asked about his original intention of helping the snake clan, he was indeed only doing it for Xue Ruo and Ling Ruo.

"How can a snake that has tasted flesh and blood be willing to drink dew again?" Yu Wanyue tapped her chest with her jade finger, her golden eyes full of insight into the world. "If a group of snakes all live on dew, it would be fine, but there are two snakes that can enjoy meat alone. The rest of the snakes can't complain about them, so they can only feel upset. One day, a third snake will be unable to resist and taste the meat. Master You, do you think there will be a fourth and fifth?"

As she finished speaking, the absurdity of that day flooded back into You Su's mind: the touch of Liu Yinyin's new skin, Yu Wanyue's broken breathing, and Yu Xiaoran's crazy roar outside the palace...

You Su quickly put aside all distracting thoughts. He just thought that the encounter with Granny Liu was a beautiful mistake. How could he dare to linger on it any longer? Not to mention that because of a mistake, the situation would develop into something as outrageous as Yu Wanyue described.

"That's enough!" You Su suddenly puffed out his chest and frowned, "Who do you think I am? And who do you think the Snake Clan is?"

Yu Wanyue was not frightened by You Su's anger, but shook her head and sighed: "Humans are humans, monsters are monsters, Mr. You, please don't confuse humans with monsters. Besides, there are many things in this world that are beyond our control."

You Su frowned in confusion, and found that he could not understand the implication of this woman's words, but he guessed that she must have anticipated something.

"what do you want to say in the end?"

Yu Wanyue smiled meaningfully, "This is just my random guess. It's inappropriate for me to speak out. Master You, just ignore it. You will know when Chief Xueruo comes back. By the way, if my guess is correct, Master You's physique seems to be a little special?"

You Su was really confused, "What's so special about it?"

"Junior Sister Liu has gained a huge amount of profound energy in a short period of time. Not only her appearance, but also her body has changed completely. She is like two different people. However, there is one thing that shouldn't have changed."

You Su pondered for a few breaths, "Demon Pill?"

"The demon pill is something the demon race is born with, it is a manifestation of talent, and it hardly changes with the growth of cultivation. And the things in the world that can purify the demon pill are all rare treasures, and they are hard to come by at a high price. But after you and Junior Sister Liu had sex that day, her dark blue demon pill became pure and flawless, and it can be called the best." Yu Wanyue narrowed her beautiful eyes, "Except that it was Master You's credit, there seems to be no other explanation."

You Su was secretly surprised that Yu Wanyue's status as the youngest elder of the Golden Peng clan was not in vain. Even if she had lost her cultivation, it was only a matter of time before she returned to the top with her observation and analytical abilities.

He also knew that the change in the demon pill was due to the power of Tai Sui in his body, but it was impossible to explain it to Yu Wanyue:

"so what?"

"So based on this alone, the demon tribe will not be able to touch you." Yu Wanyue lowered her voice, "If I let the news spread that you still have this ability, there will be many people in the demon tribe who want to protect you. Not only will your safety be guaranteed, but there will also be many beautiful demon cultivators who will offer themselves for your bed."

"Including you?" You Su stared into Yu Wanyue's eyes.

Yu Wanyue was stunned for a moment, the boy's burning body temperature coming through the gauze, she immediately loosened her wings and chuckled, "If Master You wants to make the fake play real, Wanyue naturally can't refuse."

"No need to act. You are intimate with me just to avenge Yu Xiaoran. If you were this kind of woman, you wouldn't have to struggle so much in Jinpeng's family." You Su also leaned back as much as possible. "You are persistent, and so am I, so don't be smart and spread the news about me. Besides, what you said sounds good. If the entire demon clan really knows this secret, you know whether it is a blessing or a curse."

"Mr. You is really quick-witted."

You Su didn't care much about her compliments, and said in a serious tone: "Let's talk about business. Although your cultivation has been lost, there is still a time to recover. Elder Liu believes you, but I dare not believe you. You haven't given me the handle you promised that day."

Yu Wanyue nodded in greeting, "That's right, I had the same idea. I wanted to give it to you as a reward for Mr. You's help, but I didn't expect something unexpected to happen."

The interlude was indeed a real interlude, but You Su frowned, "Interlude? Then what do you mean by reward?"

“Master You, do you think that my reward is to match you with my Junior Sister Liu who is over 200 years older than you?” Yu Wanyue couldn’t stop laughing. “I, Yu Wanyue, am not that kind of person. Even if you really want to drag my sisters into the water, I have to be in the water first.”

You Su looked embarrassed when he heard this, "When did I have such intention?!" He thought in his heart that it was a misunderstanding. He thought that Yu Wanyue was mean by nature and was planning to use other people's beauty to pay back. Now that he thought about it, wasn't this an unintentional act that led to a great success?

Yu Wanyue did not bring it up, and continued in a cold voice: "Yu Xiaoran used the Qi-Locking Nail to control me, but now that my cultivation has dissipated, he can't control me for the time being. So during this period, I want to completely make this beast give up on me!"

Her voice was as light as the wind, but You Su could hear a century of pent-up resentment and hatred.

"Is this your final revenge on him?"

“Please, Master You, carve the slave pattern for me.” Yu Wanyue straightened her back, her eyes burning, “and carved the slave pattern for me.”

You Su's pupils suddenly shrank, and he even forgot to suppress the sound of these four words with his Qi.

Yu Xiaoran's sudden roar exploded in the corner of the hall; the iron chains clanged as they were pulled apart, but it only made the place even more dead silent.

"Why would you go to this extent to avenge him?"

Yu Wanyue's smile was bitter, "It's also to reassure Master You. If I really hated you, what evidence would I have in this world to suppress my desire for revenge?"

You Su's throat tightened. He was still considering whether to turn Yu Wanyue into a dependent just to be sure, because the friendship they once had was not an unbreakable bond. But evil dependents have many concerns after all, so he was ready to see what kind of handle she could come up with before considering it.

The art of Slave Mark is similar to the power of Allah's evil followers, but the evil followers, apart from having evil spirits in their bodies, are far less harmful than the art of Slave Mark, otherwise they would not have been banned in the five continents.

Those who bear the slave mark not only have to obey the person who recognizes them as their master absolutely, but can also have their power drawn away at will, and even their life and death can be decided in a moment.

When Qianhua Xiaogou entrusted him to help enter the South Sea Fairy Island, he promised that he could carve a slave mark on her after the task was completed, so that she would submit to him both physically and mentally instead of just being forced to submit physically. You Su never mentioned this matter afterwards, firstly because he felt that he would be successful only if he could win her heart by playing a game with Qianhua Xiaogou, and secondly because he still instinctively resisted such a harmful and evil method.

So when faced with Yu Wanyue's request, he still felt sympathy.

"I don't understand the slave pattern..."

Before she finished her words, Yu Wanyue suddenly untied the belt around her waist.

You Su's eyes widened in an instant, and he was surprised to realize that she was not wearing the light golden gauze dress she had worn before.

In the light leaking through the skylight, even the dust floating on the beautiful body was clearly visible.

Even when she borrowed the sword to break the elixir that day, she had never exposed herself like this, but in the midst of the beauty, one could see circles of intricate winding lines on Yu Wanyue's lower abdomen.

The pattern was shaped like a chain wrapped around a demon pill, emitting a cold luster in the backlight, forming a stark contrast with her pale skin, like a mark of shame branded on her soul.

"This is the 'dowry' of a branch girl." Yu Wanyue's fingertips stroked the lines, and the corners of her lips curled up into a smile colder than an ice ridge. "When I was promised to be his wife, his mother, who is also the clan mother of the Jinpeng family, personally carved this slave pattern on my demon pill's vital point. At that time, I gritted my teeth in pain, but I couldn't express the humiliation in my heart. After she finished carving, I knelt down to thank the mistress for giving me the pattern. After all, it is a great blessing for them to think that a lowly offspring from a branch can become the wife of the legitimate son of the main family."

You Su felt horrified and subconsciously clenched his fists.

Once the slave mark is carved, it will be like a thorn in the bone, and it cannot be removed regardless of whether she recognizes her master or not. This will be a shame that will accompany Yu Wanyue, a proud woman, for the rest of her life. The beast's mother wanted to use this to break her wings, so that she can only wait for the 'fiancé' in the cradle to grow up.

"Yu Xiaoran!" Yu Wanyue suddenly shouted loudly.

Yu Xiaoran's roar could be heard from outside the golden wings: "Yu Wanyue! How dare you show your slave mark to others! Shameless bitch! You are mine! Mine!"

Yu Wanyue turned a deaf ear to his curses: "I know why you are so eager to annex the snake tribe... because you can't wait to break through the Feather Transformation Realm."

There was a wanton light in her eyes. "Your mother knew that you coveted me, so I told her that in order to motivate you to practice hard, you must reach the Feather Transformation Realm before you can touch me and activate the slave mark that you have coveted for many years! What a pity... you still failed just before you were about to succeed!"

"Yu Wanyue! You vicious woman! Bitch! Whore!"

Yu Xiaoran used the most disgusting words and vented his endless resentment hysterically, but the dirtier he cursed, the more happily Yu Wanyue laughed.

"I have given away the cultivation you wanted. Now - the person you wanted will no longer belong to you!"

Yu Wanyue smiled sadly. She took a long breath and suppressed the pleasure of revenge that was gushing out:
"Master You, the slave pattern has already been carved. You just need to inject Xuanqi into it to activate it."

"Do you know the price of doing this?" You Su's voice was tinged with frost.

Yu Wanyue suddenly leaned forward, and his golden wings cast a broken shadow on the ground:
"I know this very well. Master You should also know this. This world of immortal cultivation is not very glorious. Only in this way can you really let me wander among the demon tribes without worrying that I will turn against you at any time."

The candlelight in the hall flickered suddenly. You Su looked at the determination in her eyes and suddenly remembered the trembling in her heart when she bit his shoulder in the golden cocoon. If Granny Liu hadn't told him afterwards, he wouldn't have known that if Yu Wanyue had chosen to self-destruct the perfect demon pill and die with him, not a single trace of him would be left.

But she didn't do that.

You Su let out a long sigh. Even though he had guessed that Yu Wanyue hated Yu Xiaoran to the core, her final revenge still shocked him.

He knew that it was wrong to be soft-hearted towards a former enemy, but he still felt sad. After all, this was a poor woman who had no choice but to do what she wanted. She was different from Qianhua who had taken the initiative to attack him and his senior sister.

"You don't have to do this. Even if you change sides, just think that Elder Liu and I trusted the wrong person."

Yu Wanyue was stunned for a moment. She looked up, and the sunlight just happened to hit her face, making her golden eyelashes sparkle:

"I wasn't pretending just now. I really meant what I said. If you weren't ill, I would have expected you to let go of your human reserve. After all... Junior Sister Liu really seemed to enjoy it. Who wouldn't want a man?"

She looked through the skylight and saw the sunny sky outside. There were no clouds in the sky, and a few free birds were flying by. A faint smile appeared on the corner of her lips:

"You saved me from becoming a walking corpse... If it weren't for you, I would rather die than reveal this mark of shame. But you are special, and I know you will never look at me differently. So I am willing to do this, not just to avenge him."

You Su was silent for a long time, then he put his fingers together to form a sword and hung it above Nu Wen: "This is the last chance. Once you start, there will be no turning back."

Yu Wanyue lowered her head, smiled and looked at the young man. Suddenly, her wings spread open, and her golden feathers cast a rustling light, like a golden bird about to take off:
"Come, let me be your sword."

"No! No! I beg you! You Su, I beg you! No! I can give you everything except her! I will work like a slave for you! Don't touch her!"

Yu Xiaoran let out a heart-wrenching howl, but You Su's tall and straight figure completely obscured the woman he was thinking about, so that he couldn't see what expression Yu Wanyue had at the moment.

He could only watch You Su bend his arms and then slowly move forward. He had forgotten his hatred and knelt on the ground, kowtowed non-stop, wailing like a young animal:
"You can touch her...anything you want! As long as she doesn't recognize you as her master, I can agree to anything you want! I can help you! I can help you kill my father! I can help you take over the Golden Roc Clan! Please, please, I give in..."

The rainbow light meandered along the crimson lines of the slave pattern into a stream. Yu Wanyue only felt that her demon core was shaking violently. She hugged You Su's neck tightly in pain, and her golden wings flapped wildly and uncontrollably.

But even though it was so painful, she still smiled with relief.

Yu Xiaoran had given up struggling. He just stared blankly at the happy smiling face resting on You Su's shoulder.

He whimpered like a trapped beast, like a vicious dog whose fangs had been pulled out. He raised his knife, knowing that Yu Wanyue was waiting for this moment, the moment when he could no longer endure the humiliation and committed suicide.

But he had to admit that Yu Wanyue really made him lose completely. His knife skills had never been so clean and sharp before.

He collapsed in a pool of blood, looking at the figures hugging each other tightly under the golden wings, and suddenly recalled the first time he had a deep impression of Yu Wanyue.

At that time, she was standing on the golden roof, the morning sun cast a fiery glow on her feathered clothes, and she was as beautiful as a god.

She said she wanted to fly out of here, so she asked her younger self if he could help her.
Being young at the time, he readily agreed until he later discovered that he had the key to her cage.

Before closing his eyes, he finally realized that he had never truly owned her - whether using the Qi-locking Nail or the Slave Mark.

At the same time, a tear flowed from the corner of Yu Wanyue's eye.

But what she saw in her eyes was not the dead Yu Xiaoran, but the young man whom she was holding tightly.

It turns out there are fools in this world who would open the cage and let her go.
