Iron Snow Clouds

Chapter 3482 (Three Thousand Four Hundred and Eighty-Two) In short
She knew very well how dangerous what she had been doing for a long time was. She knew that even in front of the Taoist Ning Duanye, even if she wanted to ask him to extend Wu Xunsheng's life, it would not be appropriate to show a state that would make people think that she cherished life, which would be inconsistent with her long-term situation. Although he knew that Ning Duanye didn't know her that well, she also knew what kind of person she was in the legend. If her behavior was too different from the legendary self sometimes, it would easily cause the other party to think too much. If the matter was heard by Tie Wandao, it might cause greater trouble.

She had long seen that Ning Duanye's master was very important to him, so she would not deny his master's words directly, so as not to make him think that she had offended his master. Since so many people had heard about how cruel she was, she thought that Ning Duanye, who could use a thousand iron knives, would not have never heard of such a saying. She had to act like she was used to killing people so as not to arouse his suspicion. So she just smiled like that to make Ning Duanye feel her attitude towards life.

She had already prepared herself. If Ning Duanye really asked her if she disagreed with his master, she would have her own way of saying it so as not to offend his master and not let Ning Duanye think that she valued her life. She felt that if he didn't ask, then she would just show it with that smile.

Ning Duanye didn't think it was necessary to ask her more about how she viewed life, and just continued, "Anyway...anyway, what my master said does make sense to me."

Tie Hongyan said: "You will not shorten my lifespan this time. Is that what you said?"

"Yes." Ning Duanye replied.

"You're not wrong about this, right?" Tie Hongyan asked with a smile.

"It's such a big deal, I won't let it go!" Ning Duanye said, "I absolutely won't let it go! I guarantee that what I do won't shorten the young patriarch's life span! I guarantee it!"

"Look, you've said it so confidently, what else do you have to worry about?" Tie Hongyan asked.

Ning Duanye thought for a moment and said, "But...but this is not good for the young patriarch."

"Really?" Tie Hongyan asked.

"Considering what my master said, the seriously ill person begged my master to do that in order to reduce his pain. And what the young patriarch asked me to do will only increase the young patriarch's pain!" Ning Duanye said.

"What kind of pain are you talking about..." Tie Hongyan asked.

"It means dying in a very tragic way." Ning Duanye replied, "Before dying, one must endure great pain, right?"

Tie Hongyan said: "What happens after you have endured it?" "You will no longer be in this world." Ning Duanye said.

"Do you think this is the greatest pain I have to endure?" Tie Hongyan asked.

Ning Duanye nodded.

"But if I don't do this, wouldn't that mean I haven't tried my best to do things that might prolong Xunsheng's life?" Tie Hongyan asked.

"Yes." Ning Duanye said.

"In the days to come, I will keep thinking about the things I could have done but didn't do," said Tie Hongyan.

Ning Duanye said “hmm”.

"Won't I be in pain then?" Tie Hongyan asked.

Ning Duanye fell into thought again.

"Honestly, what do you think is the possibility of a miracle happening if I do nothing and Xun Sheng defeats him?" Tie Hongyan asked again.

Ning Duanye said: "Very little."

Tie Hongyan asked again: "Is your judgment correct?"
