Chapter 29 Only One Way
“…”
The young girl also heard the sound of the book falling. She turned around with difficulty, picked up the book, and pretended nothing had happened.
“That female hero…” Liu Haoyu hesitated for a moment, then said, “The book in your hand…”
“What’s wrong with the book in my hand?”
The young girl looked at Liu Haoyu with feigned solemnity.
“This is the Book of Life and Death, not some Black Book.”
“…”
The Book of Life and Death my ass!
The moment it fell just now, Liu Haoyu clearly saw the impression on the book cover. This was clearly his thing!
He had never seen this young girl before, so why did she have his book?
Liu Haoyu was completely bewildered, but soon, he seemed to think of a possibility.
A completely unexpected possibility.
Liu Haoyu had heard the Black Book’s voice before. Once, it hadn’t lowered its volume in time, and he could clearly hear a slight feminine tone.
So, could this young girl be the transformation of this Black Book?
Thinking of this, Liu Haoyu scrutinized the young girl in front of him with a measuring gaze.
“Female hero… no, you’re actually the Black Book, aren’t you?”
“…”
The young girl remained silent and shook her head without changing her expression.
“I’m not some Black Book, you’ve mistaken me for someone else.”
Although the young girl was so stubborn, Liu Haoyu became even more convinced that she was hiding something.
His mind raced, trying to find a way to expose her identity.
Had the Black Book ever left any loopholes?
Liu Haoyu frantically searched his memory for possible answers.
He looked at the young girl’s incredibly delicate face, then casually said.
“Why don’t you lead me back?”
“Just follow the path, you can get out, you don’t need me to lead the way.”
“Is that so… The candied hawthorn at Youdu’s plaza tastes very good. Since you’re already here, why don’t I treat you to another one?”
“Really?”
The young girl’s eyes lit up.
But it was only for a moment, and Liu Haoyu’s mouth couldn’t stop curving upwards.
At this point, the young girl finally realized that she had just been tricked into talking by Liu Haoyu!
“Ahem~” Liu Haoyu looked at the sweating young girl playfully, then couldn’t help but sling his arm around her shoulder and said, “Oh my, I thought it was someone else, turns out it’s you, my good brother!”
“Get away from me!”
Seeing this shameless man getting so close, the Black Book wanted to push him away but couldn’t. She was just a transformation, not her main body, so her strength was definitely not as great as Liu Haoyu’s.
“I didn’t expect this, brother, you smell so good. But is this your transformation? It looks quite good, what’s your name?”
“Go away, go away, go away!”
As the young girl tried to push Liu Haoyu away, the Black and White Impermanence appeared on the shore from who knows when.
The two ghost messengers looked at the two people with their arms around each other, acting like good buddies, and fell into thought.
Fortunately, Black Impermanence reacted in time and said to Liu Haoyu.
“Mr. Liu, please do not be disrespectful to the King of Rebirth…”
“King of Rebirth…?”
Liu Haoyu was stunned when he heard this. He looked at the young girl beside him, who was blushing with shame and gritting her teeth, then looked at the helpless Black Impermanence and White Impermanence, who was laughing while covering her face with a weeping stick, and seemed to realize something was wrong.
Liu Haoyu still couldn’t quite believe Black Impermanence’s words.
After all, it was like someone suddenly told you that your good brother was not only a girl but also the prime minister of the country.
This kind of thing was simply too outrageous.
“Are you really?”
“Can I deny it?”
The young girl looked at Liu Haoyu with a dark expression.
“Can you let me down first?”
“Okay.”
Liu Haoyu let go of the hand on the young girl’s shoulder, and only then did the blush on the girl’s face fade a little.
“King of Rebirth… King of Rebirth…” Liu Haoyu murmured, and quickly found the girl’s name from the old stories: “King of Rebirth Youtan?”
“Yes, yes.”
Before Youtan could confirm, White Impermanence nodded first.
For her, someone who enjoyed a good laugh, nothing was more interesting than seeing her superior blush.
“Black and White Impermanence, you guys go report the situation at Ye Shangfeng to King Yama first. I’ll handle things here.”
Youtan didn’t want to lose face in front of her subordinates anymore. After sending the two ghost messengers away, she looked at Liu Haoyu with a vigilant gaze.
“Let me make it clear, I don’t wear white stockings.”
Liu Haoyu straightened his back and said earnestly in the face of the young girl’s vigilance.
“Do I look like the kind of person who forces girls to wear white stockings? Do I? Don’t slander my reputation!”
“…”
Youtan’s gaze swept up and down Liu Haoyu, making him feel uneasy.
“I advise you, when you say that, take out your own conscience, sun it, wash it, and tidy it up.”
“Cough cough!”
Liu Haoyu coughed twice again, to alleviate the awkwardness.
“So that’s why this book could see through so many people’s destinies.”
After all, the King of Rebirth held the power of life and death reincarnation, so it wasn’t difficult for her to see a person’s destiny and their past and present lives.
It was just that Liu Haoyu couldn’t figure out why she had to turn into a book.
“I advise you not to ask.”
Youtan glanced at Liu Haoyu and then said.
“Hurry back, or how long do you plan to stay here?”
Since she had been seen through, Youtan was too lazy to continue pretending. She flickered and entered the Black Book, no longer speaking.
“Alright.”
The Black Book slowly fell into his hands, and Liu Haoyu seemed to have thought of something and turned to a page.
What greeted his eyes was a scene that could not be seen in daylight, and was not suitable for children.
Well… I resisted this Black Book too fiercely back then, so I pressed it onto the printer…
Thinking about it carefully, it seemed a bit much?
Does she not hold him accountable for this?
Liu Haoyu was a little confused, but Youtan said coldly.
“This was a necessary sacrifice for observing Qin Liu.”
Liu Haoyu smiled: “I haven’t forgotten who made me run away all the time back then, and who was so scared of Qin Liu that he couldn’t speak.”
Youtan remained silent for a moment before slowly saying.
“For you, who didn’t experience it back then, you can’t comprehend the terror of Qin Liu.”
“And to be honest, according to my observations, the end of your countless destiny lines is death. I didn’t expect you to survive.”
“Sss~ Speaking of which, aren’t I very lucky?”
“Heh heh…” Youtan laughed mockingly: “Without exaggeration, according to my observations, from the moment you met Qin Liu, every choice you made, a single mistake would have led to immediate death.”
“Among those hundreds or thousands of destiny lines, only the one you are currently on allows you to live on.”
“Note, only this one.”
