The King of Curses

Chapter 320 The Smell of Rot

"The situation has stabilized and is being carried out according to your plan."

Kong Yinlian, who was wearing a suit, approached her and saluted respectfully.

An Zhizhen stood quietly on the upper deck, looking down at the crowd walking around. The oncoming sea breeze blew her long black hair.

After the death of the Mirage Lord, the operation of the Mirage came to a complete standstill; coupled with the huge waves caused by the battle between several special curse masters and the evil gods, the curse masters who were invited to the banquet were in panic.

Under such circumstances, the Super Working Committee took the initiative to step forward and mobilize the fleet, preparing to carry the curse masters who were planning to disembark from the luxury cruise ship in batches.

The Super Working Committee is the nominal official organization and the only force qualified to do this. Even though this is theoretically the territory of the "Cave of Ecstasy", they dare not stop it.

Of course, people’s unwillingness to become enemies of the Super Working Committee does not mean that they are willing to obey and accept transfer orders.

"There are still some people who plan to stay on this ship. There are more than a dozen groups and forces, big and small, and dozens of lone travelers who claim to be skilled and brave. About 60% of them are from abroad. And..."

Kong Yinlian stood up and pointed the direction for An Zhizhen.

"One of them wants to meet with you."

An Zhizhen withdrew his gaze from the vast and calm sea and looked in the direction she pointed:

Men in suits and women in luxurious clothes were looking at her expectantly.

"not see."

An Zhizhen refused decisively.

"I have already met everyone who is qualified to meet me."

"Then what happens next..."

"It's hard to persuade these damned ghosts with kind words. Since they are so stubborn, let reality teach them a lesson."

"I understand."

Kong Yinlian nodded.

She acted decisively and efficiently, and those who wanted to meet with the security advisor of the Super Working Committee all returned disappointed.

When he came back again, Secretary Kong looked hesitant, as if he was considering whether he should ask something.

"what happened?"

An Zhizhen asked casually.

"If I understand correctly, you mean there will be another big battle next, right?"

"Yes, after all, some people will be unwilling to accept the fact that there was no winner last time. Of course, the most important thing is..."

The woman laughed quietly.

"It's my lovely 'sister'. She is the most unstable bomb in the world, and there are sparks everywhere on this ship that can ignite her."

Kong Yinlian certainly knew who the "sister" she was talking about was.

Yi Qingyan and her Yanluo Society are the only organization of curse masters tolerated by An Zhizhen and allowed to open their headquarters in Tianhai City.

That high school girl is a "monster" who is even more dangerous than An Zhizhen.

Kong Yinlian knew the inside story and was aware of the other party's performance in several battles. If she went crazy, the Mirage would capsize in a matter of a second.

If Kong Yinlian had known that she would be in a fight with her if she boarded this ship, she would have definitely tried to ask for leave before coming here.

Although the outcome would not be different and her immediate superior would most likely not let her go, she still had to at least struggle.

"Don't worry, you are my useful secretary, I will protect you."

Seeing through her thoughts, An Zhizhen smiled and said, "A useful secretary?"

"Thank you for your concern."

Kong Yinlian accepted it willingly.

From a miserable test subject, to a temporary assistant, and finally to a secretary who was directly under Advisor An in everyone's eyes, and the person who could represent the former's will in the outside world, Kong Yinlian was now a powerful figure in the eyes of most curse masters.

She is not dissatisfied with the current situation.

Although she was busy all day and could not escape the fate of being exploited, Kong Yinlian had learned to find joy in hardship. Watching the struggle between peerless masters up close was a way to broaden her horizons; a wonderful performance was about to begin, and she was sitting in the front row of the audience, risking her life to watch.

Kong Yinlian sighed in her heart: If she knew her life now a year ago, what would she choose? Would she think her current life is not bad and willingly accept her fate, or would she desperately run away from the shadow of that woman from the beginning? She didn't get the answer.

The girl's footsteps echoed in the silent and dusty corridor.

Yi Qingyan sensed the uneasiness deep in her heart.

She is not afraid of any external threats. If there is anyone in this world who can affect her mind like this, there is probably only one person -

"It's my brother's side..."

Yi Qingyan still remembered that when she said goodbye to Cen Dongsheng an hour ago and said he was going back to rest, the man's expression was a little strange.

"Is he cheating on me with someone again?"

Although she was mumbling doubtfully, the high school girl's mood did not become too bad.

After all, she was his only sister—

For now, this will not change.

...Of course, Yi Qingyan couldn't be satisfied with this.

Sooner or later, she will take away the position of lover and relative and become the "number one" in his life. The girl has no hesitation about this and this goal will not change at all.

"Speaking of which, my brother..."

It has been a long time since Yi Qingyan last killed anyone, and she has been restraining her murderous intent. Her brother must know this; but judging from his performance last time, he was indulging himself.

In other words, he understood from the beginning that it would be impossible to control her since she came on board the ship.

The clever girl quickly realized the reason behind this; Cen Dongsheng's performance had hinted that beneath the Mirage's glamorous and magnificent appearance, there lay secrets - dark, bloody and cruel secrets that symbolized the rotten human heart.

It's commonplace and not surprising.

The powerful force of the curse masters is the nourishment that will make this corruption spread faster.

In her eyes, that woman was a typical example, drenched in arrogance, proving that she was rotten to the core.

However, since this arrogance is perfectly mastered by the person himself, it does not cause any harm to the world for the time being; on the contrary, it becomes a driving force for certain changes.

Even she had to admit that what women did was conducive to a more perfect and harmonious order; and with her brother in the middle, she could barely tolerate coexisting with this evil.

Yi Qingyan's personality did change, and she gradually became able to tolerate the "gray" between "black" and "white"; but her essence and her paranoia never faded a bit.

It's just that if it's not to the point where she has to "kill immediately," the girl will turn her eyes away and pretend she didn't see it; but if something is rotten to the root, the smell can still be smelled with just a slight sniff...

……

Yi Qingyan stopped.

The girl wrinkled her nose slightly and really smelled a smell, a foul odor mixed with decay and blood.
