Chapter 1885: Chapter 1882: Disguise
Heshan struggled to climb to the stool next to him, leaning against it, watching the young man in womenâs clothes with contempt in his eyes: âAfter so many years, you havenât made any progress, still as foolish as ever.â
âYou actually dared to try and bring Bai Lan over to strengthen you, but the result, hmph, if you dare to ruin our business in the capital, donât blame me for being merciless.â After saying this, Heshan couldnât help but take a few deep breaths.
Perhaps his body was too weak, he touched his forehead with discomfort: âDamn it, Iâm dizzyâŠâ
After saying this, he realized he had shown vulnerability in front of âBai Yaoâ, and he gave a sinister smile: âDonât think that just because Iâm sick, you can dream of getting more benefits.â
âWeâve lost so much this month because of those idiots, causing the temple to be investigated. You must handle the follow-up, no matter how you use the Gu, you have to solve this problem.â
âIâve already sent things into the Imperial Palace, it will be resolved soon.â âBai Yaoâ looked at her fingers confidently.
Only then did Heshanâs expression improve somewhat, suddenly thinking of something, he couldnât help but laugh: âYou women are truly formidable, even managing to manipulate the old Emperor.â
âIf youâre unsure, you can give me more pills.â âBai Yaoâ seized the opportunity to claim benefits.
Heshanâs expression instantly darkened upon hearing the request for pills: âYou took seventy percent last time, and now you want more pills again? Is it that your subordinates are useless, or did you secretly sell the pills to someone else?â
As Heshan spoke, he suddenly squinted, abruptly closing in on âBai Yaoâ, eyes filled with a dangerous glow: âBai Yao, Bai Yao, youâre not actually thinking of being clever and trying to manipulate King of Huainan to harm me, are you?â
He spoke with gritted teeth, swiftly gripping her neck, his eyes wide like a demon ready to devour: âBai Yao, if you dare to make me the scapegoat, ruin my good days, donât blame me for using force against you.â
As he spoke, he suddenly chanted an unintelligible spell.
âBai Yaoâ struggled, coughing incessantly.
From a distance, Chu Heng nodded to him as a signal.
âBai Yaoâ immediately fell to the ground, starting to howl in pain.
Seeing âBai Yaoâ suffering, Heshan stood up, lofty, looking down at her with contempt, âBai Yao, your days are still fairly good now, if you betray me, donât blame me for taking your life.â
âDonât think I donât know youâre privately plotting to get rid of the Gu insect in your body. Iâm just curious to see what extent you can achieve.â Heshan, confident in victory, looked at her as one would a dog under control, completely dismissive: âYet youâve really disappointed me, after all these years, finally barely having a chance to succeed.â
âWhat a pity, you actually think I wouldnât know youâre deliberately concocting some pills just to seize the opportunity to cultivate more Bai Tan, then nurture the Emperorâs Gu to escape my control?â
âKing of Huainan is indeed loyal to you, willing to help you buy medicinal herbs from the Southern Border, but sadly, Iâve long been watching your movements, did you really think you could deceive me?â
âBai Yaoâ quivered on the ground, glaring at him ferociously, looking completely disheveled: âYou canât possibly know all my actions.â
âHa, still struggling.â Heshan raised her chin with his hand: âWhat a pity, you didnât know, did you? I had someone secretly swap your Gu Cultivation medicinal herbs, so tell me, when you hopefully await using the Emperorâs Gu to escape my control, only to find that the Emperorâs Gu is fake, isnât that amusing?â
