Cultivating Immortality Begins with Selling Oneself

Chapter 61 Fighting Side by Side
The man in black widened his eyes in fear, unable to believe his own eyes. Why did the flames approach Shen Fuyu? Shen Fuyu remained unharmed.

The raging fire burned the skin, emitting a sizzling sound, and the smell of burnt flesh spread in the air. The man in black had a hideous look on his face because of pain. Shen Fuyu covered her mouth and nose with disgust, her round eyes indifferent, as if the thing burning in front of her was not a living person, but an object.

"help me!"

The raging fire could not kill the man in black in a short period of time. The man in black could only endure the tremendous pain, his expression gradually collapsed, and he did not care about Shen Fuyu's special situation.

Even though the man in black usually had a strong will, he couldn't help but beg for mercy under such torture.

I thought Shen Fuyu, an eight-year-old girl, would be scared and soft-hearted when she saw this scene, but unexpectedly Shen Fuyu was indifferent, standing there without any reaction, and no intention of being soft-hearted.

If Shen Fuyu knew what the man in black was thinking, he would definitely mock him. The man in black showed no mercy when he raised the dagger towards Shen Fuyu's chest. The two sides were in a relationship of life and death. Shen Fuyu's brief mercy would definitely bring him fierce revenge from the man in black.

Shen Fuyu is not stupid, on the contrary he is very clear-headed.

Receiving modern education, Shen Fuyu knows that killing is wrong.

There was a trace of nausea in his heart, but Shen Fuyu suppressed it. Survival of the fittest. Since he came to a strange dynasty, Shen Fuyu had to work hard to adapt to the rules. In this dynasty, without high-tech assistance, it was extremely difficult to handle cases. What's more, the men in black were secret guards who handled private matters for their masters. No one would bother them even if they died.

On the contrary, once Shen Fuyu lets him go, the man in black will not let him go. No matter from which perspective, Shen Fuyu will not be soft-hearted and will not let the man in black go.

"You have such a cruel heart, aren't you afraid that others will notice something strange?"

The sharp shouts of the man in black rang in my ears, along with intermittent accusations.

Shen Fuyu's eyes turned fierce, and he approached the man in black step by step. The small figure came against the firelight, like a devil walking out of hell.

"Thanks for reminding."

Shen Fuyu twisted her small hand hard, and the man in black's jaw was dislocated, and he couldn't even utter a word.

The man in black only felt that Shen Fuyu exuded a chilling murderous intent, and fear appeared in his eyes.

Die quietly in regret.

The flames also dissipated.

Due to the special nature of the fire, the man in black did not even leave any ashes. He disappeared from the world silently.

Shen Fuyu did not feel as happy as he had expected. Instead, he felt as if a heavy stone was pressing on his heart, making it hard for him to breathe.

Everyone understands the truth, but no one can remain indifferent when something really happens.

She... killed someone.

Shen Fuyu lowered his eyes, and his whole aura seemed a little strange, as if he was trapped in a nightmare.

In his previous life, Shen Fuyu only worried about money and studying, and had never experienced such a thing. Now that he has come to a strange dynasty, Shen Fuyu has to protect his own life.

She killed someone to protect herself.

Shen Fuyu understood that if she didn't take action, the man in black would not show mercy, but Shen Fuyu just couldn't get over the hurdle in her heart.

Shen Mengwu and Shen Mengning hurried out of the cabinet. They looked at Shen Fuyu cautiously. Shen Mengning patted Shen Fuyu's back, silently comforting him.

Shen Mengwu poured a cup of tea and handed it to Shen Fuyu's mouth.

"Shen Fuyu, don't feel bad. We are fighting the men in black to the death. Shen Fuyu, think about it. If we can't defeat the men in black, will the three of us still be alive? We are trying to protect ourselves. You are not wrong."

Shen Mengwu's tender and clear voice reached Shen Fuyu's ears clearly.

"Shen Fuyu, you are not a bad person, nor a murderer."

"Ah."

Shen Fuyu raised his head and forced a smile, looking at the Shen sisters with extremely gentle eyes.

"Awu and Aning, I burned him to death." Shen Fuyu unconsciously grabbed the corner of her clothes, her voice a little nervous, "Do you think I am cruel? I could have killed the man in black quickly, but I tortured him to death." The Shen sisters shook their heads at the same time.

Shen Mengning imitated Shen Fuyu's usual behavior, rubbed Shen Fuyu's head, and spoke very slowly, enunciating each word. "Fuyu, being kind to your enemies is being cruel to yourself."

"We can't escape death anyway. Being burned by flames, the men in black can't fight back. This is the safest way for us."

Shen Mengning speaks very little, but every time she speaks, she can accurately touch Shen Fuyu's heart.

Shen Fuyu's big eyes were filled with tears, and she felt extremely moved.

"Woo woo woo, it's my blessing to meet you sisters."

Shen Fuyu was speaking from the heart, even though he initially served the Shen sisters out of the benefits promised by Madam Shen.

As they spent more and more time together, Shen Fuyu became more and more fond of this sincere sisterhood.

The three of them were no longer master and servant, but friends, friends with equal relations.

"Shen Fuyu, I have something against you." Shen Mengwu weakly stretched out her hand, her eyes full of accusations towards Shen Fuyu, "Shen Fuyu, next time we encounter something like this, I will fight with you. What if you can't win? Wouldn't it be difficult to win alone..."

"Sister doesn't know martial arts, we just need to hide her. I want to fight alongside you."

Time is too urgent tonight.

Shen Mengwu had no choice but to follow Shen Fuyu's arrangements.

"Your mission is to protect An Ning."

Shen Fuyu's tone was loud and clear, very firm.

Shen Mengwu wanted to refute, but Shen Fuyu's attention was attracted by a token on the ground.

Shen Fuyu stepped forward unconsciously and reached out to pick up the token.

"Do you know each other?"

Large families usually like to use tokens to identify each other.

Shen Mengwu took the token, examined it carefully, and said decisively, "It belongs to Murong Yue."

"Heh." A sarcastic smile appeared on Shen Fuyu's lips, just as she had guessed.

Murong Yue was very quick. As soon as the conflict happened at noon, she sent people to take action in the evening.

Shen Fuyu thought about Xiaoyuan again.

An idea quickly came to his mind. No matter what the truth was, Shen Fuyu was going to push the dirty water onto Murong Yue.

"Shen Fuyu, will anyone notice that the house is on fire?" Shen Mengwu suddenly became a little worried.

Shen Mengning realized belatedly that something was wrong, "Why doesn't the raging fire harm the debris?"

The flames tightly wrapped around the man in the dark, without causing any damage to the floor or the various mahogany furniture.

Not right.

Logically speaking, Shen Fuyu had set a fire, which would have caused thick smoke to rise and attracted people's attention. However, no one noticed anything wrong at this point.

Shen Fuyu was also surprised. It was the first time he used spiritual energy to hurt someone.

She shook her head honestly, "I don't know either."
