If you force me to take the blame, I'll spend a day in jail and gain a year's worth of spi

Jiang Luohan clearly felt the sudden surge of cold killing intent emanating from the two women in front of her, and panic began to rise in her heart.

"No...no!"

Jiang Luohan's scream suddenly changed tone, filled with terror and pleading.

His previous arrogance and meanness vanished, leaving only the most instinctive fear in the face of death.

She struggled to back away, but her wrist was firmly gripped by Xiao Fenghua's iron grip, rendering her unable to move.

At this moment, boundless regret gnawed at her heart like a venomous snake.

She regretted it.

I regret it so much I could die.

She regretted why she had chosen to humiliate herself.

Why come to this prison to see Zhang Yu's miserable state?

She had thought that Zhang Yu would be the same as before, still longing for her even after being hurt, and would feel pain and regret because of her appearance.

But what did she see?

Zhang Yu's fate was not as tragic as she had predicted. In fact, his cell contained two stunningly beautiful women whose looks and cultivation were no less than hers.

She regretted her sharp tongue even more. Why did she have to insult these two women of unknown origin?

She should have realized something was wrong when she saw another woman with Zhang Yu, and left immediately!

But she was blinded by jealousy and dominated by the twisted logic that "Zhang Yu will always belong to her," so she spoke recklessly and completely enraged the other party.

Xiao Fenghua and Xiao Meier completely ignored how much Jiang Luohan regretted it or how much she begged for mercy.

In their eyes, Jiang Luohan was a scourge that had to be eliminated immediately.

Zhang Yu's pained expression, with his eyes closed, brows furrowed, and struggling, was branded into their hearts like a hot iron.

They concluded that Zhang Yu still harbored feelings for Jiang Luohan and had softened his heart.

If we don't kill her now, she will become a major threat once Zhang Yu regains consciousness or if she causes trouble again in the future.

The murderous intent was no longer concealed.

Xiao Fenghua tightened his grip on Jiang Luohan's wrist slightly, and the icy, bone-chilling true energy, like a venomous snake, was about to travel along the meridians and directly attack the heart.

Xiao Meier's eyes flashed with a fierce light, and her palm glowed with a crimson light, carrying a scorching and sinister aura, as she silently struck Jiang Luohan's back.

If this blow lands, Jiang Luohan's heart meridian will be shattered, and she will die on the spot!

Jiang Luohan sensed the presence of death and was terrified.

Her screams were choked back, leaving only desperate sobs and pupils that contracted violently with fear.

however--

Just as Xiao Fenghua's chilling true energy was about to invade, and Xiao Meier's crimson palm print was about to be imprinted on Jiang Luohan's back in the blink of an eye!

A figure appeared in front of Jiang Luohan without warning, blocking the Xiao sisters' killing move.

It's Zhang Yu!

He still wore that pained expression, his brows furrowed as if he were struggling against something unseen, but his movements were faster than anyone could perceive.

With his formidable innate cultivation, he withstood the attacks from Xiao Fenghua and Xiao Meier.

Zhang Yu didn't want to do it either, but seeing that Jiang Luohan was about to die, his obsession led him to suicidally destroy her sea of ​​consciousness.

After all, he was the original owner of this body. If he wanted to damage his own sea of ​​consciousness, Zhang Yu couldn't stop him if they were of equal spiritual cultivation.

If the sea of ​​consciousness in this body is destroyed, Zhang Yu's soul will also be unable to survive inside.

Before he was absolutely certain he could refine this obsession, Zhang Yu decided to compromise for the time being.

At that moment, he deeply understood the helplessness of Naraku in Inuyasha.

Naraku, such a powerful demon, was trapped for decades by the obsession of a mortal named Kuroko, and was never able to kill Kikyo.

Xiao Fenghua and Xiao Meier looked up at Zhang Yu, feeling a pang of bitterness in their hearts.

It was a complex emotion that was hard to describe, along with a hint of...icy disappointment and anger.

For the first time, Xiao Fenghua's usually cold eyes showed obvious ripples. Looking at Zhang Yu, who was blocking Jiang Luohan, a bitter feeling mixed with anger surged in her heart.

Xiao Meier was so angry that her pretty face turned pale, and she pointed at Zhang Yu and shouted:

"Zhang Yu, are you...are you crazy?"

Think about how Jiang Luohan treated you before.

She treated you like a dog, and sent you to this hell to wait for death.

You're actually protecting her now?

She simply couldn't understand why Zhang Yu, who clearly possessed such terrifying strength, would still be soft-hearted towards this vicious woman.

Could it be that our past relationship really made him so unable to distinguish right from wrong, so... shameless?

Jiang Luohan was completely dumbfounded.

The sudden disappearance of the threat of death left her feeling utterly exhausted, as if she had survived a catastrophe.

But then, an even greater pressure emanated from the not-so-broad back in front of him.

This oppressive aura... she had only ever felt it from the old ancestor in her family who was in seclusion for many years.

That's... the terrifying aura possessed only by innate powerhouses!

How is that possible?!

How could Zhang Yu, whom she considered a piece of trash, the man she once manipulated, possibly be a master of innate strength?

What does it mean to have congenital defects in your twenties?

Looking across the entire Wei Kingdom, including the eight kingdoms of the Eastern Region, and even the thirty-six regions of Yuhua Continent, such talents are extremely rare, the kind of peerless geniuses that only appear in legends!

She couldn't believe it, and didn't want to believe it.

But the undeniable, innate pressure cruelly told her that it was real.

The man she looked down upon was not only mysterious and terrifying, capable of guiding grandmaster-level experts, but also possessed innate cultivation.

A tremendous sense of absurdity and unbelievable horror, along with a deep-seated fear and regret, overwhelmed her in an instant.

All her previous sense of superiority, all her scheming, and all her contempt were crushed by this innate pressure at this moment.

She actually... pushed such a man with unlimited potential, who might stand at the top of the world in the future, into someone else's arms.

Jiang Luohan's face was ashen, and her lips trembled.

Looking at Zhang Yu's back, which still seemed to be struggling and in pain, her mind went blank, and she couldn't even cry. All that remained was boundless fear and regret.

However, the next moment, Jiang Luohan looked at Zhang Yu's protective figure and a confident smile appeared on her lips.

Because she firmly believed that Zhang Yu was still the same devoted admirer who would risk his life for her, otherwise he wouldn't have come to save her so recklessly.

He hasn't changed at all.

He's still that infatuated fool I can manipulate and take whatever he wants from me.

However, he has now had incredible luck and encountered some extraordinary opportunity. Not only has his cultivation level skyrocketed to the Innate Realm, but he has also gained connections with Grandmasters and even mysterious powers that surpass those of Grandmasters.

But so what?

Emotionally, he is still my devoted follower, still a fool I can easily manipulate.

So what if it's innate?

So what if someone in their twenties is a prodigy?

So what if you have connections with grandmasters?

As long as he still loves me and is still obsessed with me, then this terrifying power and this awe-inspiring strength may well be of use to me in the future.

Jiang Luohan was very confident in herself, believing that as long as she used a little trickery, Zhang Yu would definitely become her most obedient dog, her most loyal dog.
