A man in the Qin Dynasty changed the world by collecting entries.

Jing Ni was so angry that she finally blurted out the words Bai Yuan had just said.

It's just that one of them was acting, and the other was genuine.

She knew she had lost completely, even if it was a very unjust defeat, but she accepted the result. As an assassin, she had long expected this day to come.

But Bai Yuan shook his head.

No, I won't kill you.

He reached out and removed Jing Ni's mask, revealing her true appearance in the moonlight.

He was momentarily stunned when he saw that face.

She was so beautiful she could topple kingdoms and cities; she was more beautiful than a peach blossom.

Such beauty is truly remarkable; one can only know that this statement is not an exaggeration once one sees it in person.

The only person Bai Yuan had ever seen who could rival Jing Ni in appearance was Tao Yao, a demon.

Are you trying to humiliate me?

Jingni's eyes still held a hint of tears, but her face remained stubbornly defiant.

"You misunderstood. I didn't mean to humiliate you. I was just curious about what you look like."

"so what?"

"So beautiful! Her beauty is beyond compare."

Bai Yuan looked at her and gave a very serious evaluation.

Jingni felt that he was still humiliating her, so she closed her eyes in anger and stopped talking.

Seeing this, Bai Yuan smiled and shook his head.

"You know what? The trick I just used is especially effective on people with a conscience because it touches the softest part of their hearts."

He began to explain to himself.

“Actually, I was also very surprised. The top-ranking assassin of Luo Wang, Jing Ni, was actually able to drop her sword for me. This shows that you still have a conscience and the emotions of a normal person. You are not a sword called Jing Ni, but a complete person.”

Jingni frowned, but still did not reply.

But her heart was already in turmoil.

Such remarks are more terrifying than a sharp sword.

How could a cold-blooded assassin from the Luo Wang organization possibly still have any conscience? How could he possibly still have any feelings?

These things will only become obstacles to her assassination attempt.

But how do you explain what just happened?

No, that's not right! It must all be this guy's lies!

Jingni tried to convince herself not to believe Bai Yuan's words.

But the feelings of self-blame, gratitude, and mixed emotions she had just experienced lingered in her mind.

"I only took advantage of your kindness. What defeated you wasn't me, but yourself, so think about it carefully!"

Yes, this is the essence of the "emotional manipulation technique": exploiting other people's kindness to gain their sympathy.

If the other party has no conscience at all and their heart is as hard as steel, then this trick is like a clown performance and is basically useless.

Bai Yuan sighed and didn't try to persuade her anymore. These kinds of things require the person involved to think things through themselves.

He retrieved the peach blossom sword and then walked back to Huihe and Ada's side.

At this moment, the two of them had also shaken off the effects of the [Emotional Sword Technique] and returned to normal, their faces still bearing traces of tears, looking somewhat dumbfounded.

Lu was somewhat indignant: "Brother Bai Yuan, you actually lied to us too, making us cry so much for you!"

"Ahem. Doesn't this just prove that my emotional manipulation technique is very effective?"

"Emotional swordsmanship...that's too much."

Lu was speechless when he heard the name. He didn't know how to describe it. Having been educated in Confucianism, he had never seen such a shameless trick.

For someone as young as him, Bai Yuan's [Emotional Sword Technique] was too impactful, causing his worldview to crumble.

Chapter 15 He actually stole the mask.

Lu's hesitant expression made Bai Yuan raise his hand to his forehead, feeling somewhat withdrawn.

While this trick is indeed highly effective, it is undeniably too shameful.

He almost burst out laughing just now.

It seems we should use this tactic sparingly!

Moreover, this sword technique has many flaws. It is highly effective against people with a conscience, but only moderately effective against the most vicious people.

Isn't this just bullying honest people?

The fact that Jing Ni was defeated by him only shows that she was too naive and inexperienced!

Seeing that Wuming had not yet returned, Bai Yuan instructed the two of them, "Keep this a secret for me, and don't let your master know!"

If Wuming were to find out that he had learned such a strange technique, given his relationship with the Taoists, it probably wouldn't be long before his senior brother, Chisongzi, also found out.

He couldn't even imagine what it would be like then.

Although Lu felt that this move was a bit damaging to his image, he would not refuse Bai Yuan's request since Bai Yuan was trying to protect them.

However, he was worried about Wuming's safety because he remembered what Jingni had just said.

"Master hasn't caught up for so long, could it be..."

"I'll go ask about it."

Bai Yuan dared not make any guarantees.

Although he knew that Wuming was very strong, he was not invincible. In the end, he was just a person.

The current situation is completely different from what he remembers.

The Net and the Nightfall cooperated to hunt them down, and Jingni even came to find him specifically.

What kind of opponent will Wuming encounter?

But as soon as Bai Yuan approached, before he could even ask a question, he was silenced by Jing Ni's words.

"I won't tell, just kill me!"

"No, I just said so much to you, and you're still unmoved?"

"Hmph! Enough with the nonsense!"

"Hey! Now I'm the butcher and you're the fish on the chopping block, and you still dare to be so arrogant?"

"Kill me or torture me, it's up to you. Do it!"

No matter what Bai Yuan said, Jing Ni only asked for death, and she was completely unyielding. There was nothing Bai Yuan could do.

Just then, two extremely powerful sword intents suddenly came from afar.

One was ethereal and indistinct, seemingly there yet not there; the other exuded a chilling murderous aura, making one tremble with fear.

Even from such a distance, both the Peach Blossom Sword and the Startled Salamander Sword were affected, and couldn't help but emit bursts of sword cries.

The two sword intents collided violently, and a powerful gust of air emanated from them, forcing Bai Yuan to raise his hand to defend himself.

"Such powerful sword intent!"

His expression turned very serious; this scene had a significant impact on him.

This is a true clash of the strongest.

It seemed that the last move had just been the final exchange, and soon everything returned to calm.

Not long after, Wuming arrived.

They breathed a sigh of relief when they saw that Bai Yuan and the others were safe and sound.

"Master!"

Lu Xiao ran forward and found that Wuming's clothes were torn in several places, and he had several wounds on his body that were still bleeding, staining his clothes red.

"Mr. Anonymous, how are you?"

Bai Yuan quickly stepped forward and began to use his Taoist cultivation method to heal Wuming's injuries.

However, Wuming waved his hand and declined his offer.

"I'm fine, don't worry about me."

What exactly happened on your end?

I had already

After dealing with those assassins, I was on my way to join you, but I unexpectedly encountered Yan Ri, a top-tier assassin from the Luo Wang organization. He was very strong, so I was held up. I barely managed to force him back, but I was also injured in the battle.”

While calming his own body and healing his injuries, Wuming gave a brief explanation.

At this moment, he noticed the frozen Jing Ni and the Jing Ni sword lying on the ground, and immediately recognized her.

"This is Jing Ni! Sending out two top-tier assassins at once, the Luo Wang organization is really going all out!"

As he spoke, he gave Bai Yuan an approving look.

I never expected that Bai Yuan could actually subdue Jing Ni. He truly deserves to be Bei Mingzi's disciple.

Bai Yuan felt a little embarrassed by his gaze and quickly changed the subject: "This is not a place to stay for long. Let's leave here first!"

"That startled salamander"

Wuming glanced in Jingni's direction, his meaning clear.

However, Bai Yuan shook his head: "Don't worry about her."

Since he said he wouldn't kill her, he wouldn't go back on his word.

Although Wuming found it strange, he nodded and had no objection. Bai Yuan had defeated the man, so he had no right to interfere with how the man was dealt with.
