Chapter 1503: Chapter 161: You Are So Ruthless

Fang Lin had a helpless expression. What does it mean when they say children shouldn’t interrupt when adults are talking? After all, he had lived two lifetimes; how could he still be a child?

However, as a son, when Fang Qingye spoke thus, Fang Lin chose to remain silent.

Ten Thousand Strings Demon Girl had long since understood, perhaps she had even realized it a very long time ago.

Fang Qingye had never liked her, and she didn’t genuinely like Fang Qingye either; it was just that the experience of Fang Qingye once risking his life to save her had deeply impacted her, making the Ten Thousand Strings Demon Girl believe she had fallen for Fang Qingye.

The Ten Thousand Strings Demon Girl knew that Fang Qingye loved only one person, and that was Bai Qingxue. No woman, no matter who, could shake Bai Qingxue’s position in Fang Qingye’s heart.

It was only now that the Ten Thousand Strings Demon Girl finally thoroughly sorted through these matters, perhaps a bit too late.

“This child, who is he to you?” The Ten Thousand Strings Demon Girl glanced at Fang Lin and asked.

Fang Qingye smiled: “He is the son of Qingxue and me.”

Ten Thousand Strings Demon Girl gave Fang Lin a deep look. Fang Lin, feeling awkward, didn’t know what to say, so he just thought to give Ten Thousand Strings Demon Girl a fist salute: “Greetings to my senior.”

“He really is your son, he looks a bit more handsome than you did back then,” said the Ten Thousand Strings Demon Girl with a smile, yet the smile was quite bitter.

Fang Qingye laughed loud: “Of course, his mother is the most beautiful woman in the world.”

The expression on Ten Thousand Strings Demon Girl turned dejected. Speaking of looks, was she truly inferior to Bai Qingxue?

“You said that it was not her who caused my downfall back then, what exactly do you mean?” Ten Thousand Strings Demon Girl returned to the main topic, looking at Fang Qingye.

On this subject, Fang Qingye also became solemn, and said: “Qingxue only defeated you back then but she did not physically harm you. Afterwards, you perished abruptly. What exactly happened? Don’t you remember anything?”

Ten Thousand Strings Demon Girl looked skeptically at Fang Qingye: “I only remember that it was Bai Qingxue who killed me.”

“That’s impossible, had she really killed you, she would not have hidden it from me,” Fang Qingye shook his head.

Ten Thousand Strings Demon Girl scoffed: “You trust that woman so much? What if she deceived you?”

Fang Qingye, with a serious face, responded: “Anyone might deceive me, but she won’t.”

Ten Thousand Strings Demon Girl was at a loss for words, not knowing whether to be angry or envious.

She envied Bai Qingxue, being so deeply loved by one of the finest men in the world.

“If it wasn’t her who killed me, then why, in my last memories, was she the last person I saw?” Ten Thousand Strings Demon Girl said.

Fang Qingye frowned: “Is that so?”

The figure of Ten Thousand Strings Demon Girl became much dimmer, clearly struggling to maintain her form at the moment, about to dissipate.

Fang Qingye did not inquire further on this issue, but instead asked: “Do you still want to reside in this young girl’s body?”

“What’s wrong with that? Do you really want me to fade away? To have my last trace in this world vanish too?” Ten Thousand Strings Demon Girl said coldly.

Fang Qingye pondered for a moment: “If you continue to reside in this young girl, I fear she will be increasingly influenced by you and lose her original temperament.”

“Heh, what does that have to do with me? Don’t forget, I am the Ten Thousand Strings Demon Girl; since I am a demoness, why would I care about what happens to others?” Ten Thousand Strings Demon Girl spoke, her words showing complete disregard for how Dugu Nian would turn out.

Fang Lin was getting anxious upon hearing this. How could this be? If the Ten Thousand Strings Demon Girl kept clinging onto Dugu Nian, in the long run, Dugu Nian’s personality would become more and more like the Demon Girl’s. What should he do?

Moreover, there’s no telling when the Demon Girl might strike Dugu Nian, fully possessing her body and making Dugu Nian disappear from this world, leaving behind an unimaginable Demon Girl.

Fang Qingye chuckled and said, “That young girl won’t do.”

“Why? She doesn’t seem to have anything to do with you, right?” the Ten Thousand Strings Demon Girl frowned.

Fang Qingye glanced at a worried Fang Lin behind him and smiled, “You must have noticed, there’s a force from Qingxue in that young girl.”

“Exactly, because she has that woman’s power, I am inclined to cling onto her!” said the Demon Girl.

Fang Qingye shook his head, “This young girl is the woman my son has taken a liking to.”

The Demon Girl huffed coldly, glanced at Fang Lin, then looked at Fang Qingye, “Are you father and son trying to force me into a dead end?”

Fang Qingye said, “Even if you cling to her inner body, you cannot possess her. That power from Qingxue, if it truly decides to destroy you, it won’t be too difficult.”

“Then let’s go down together,” said the Demon Girl, about to return to Dugu Nian’s body.

Fang Qingye sighed, extending his hand and grasping towards the Demon Girl from afar.

The Demon Girl’s figure suddenly couldn’t move, unable to enter into Dugu Nian’s body.

“If you really don’t want to leave, continue to exist in another way,” Fang Qingye said.

The Demon Girl roared furiously, struggling, but facing Fang Qingye’s power, even if it was just an avatar of him, she couldn’t break free.

“Fang Qingye!” The Demon Girl was almost going mad, not caring that she was close to vanishing.

Fang Qingye looked distressed, and in a flick of his fingers, the Demon Girl’s figure coalesced, and from Dugu Nian’s Nine Palace Bag, an old zither flew out.

“In this zither, you can exist forever, as long as the zither remains unbroken, you will always be here,” Fang Qingye said, moving his finger, and the Demon Girl was absorbed into the zither.

At once, every string on the old zither started vibrating crazily, as if they were going to snap at any moment.

Fang Lin recognized this zither from a long time ago. When he had just joined North Town Hall, in the desolate Red Crown Pill City of the Ancient Alchemy Prohibited Area, he encountered one of the founders, who was not only an excellent Pill Refiner but also a rare master of the Tao of the Zither.

This zither was an artifact left by that person, which Fang Lin had taken back and gifted to Dugu Nian.

Now, Fang Qingye merged the Demon Girl’s lingering will into the zither, turning her into the Soul of the Zither, injecting new power into this artifact that had lost all its energy.

The zither hummed and vibrated, and although it still looked ancient, even Fang Lin, an outsider to the Tao of the Zither, could tell that this zither was completely different now.

Jokingly, with the Ten Thousand Strings Demon Girl, the Zither Demon Saint, as the soul of the zither, wouldn’t this zither become a top treasure among all zithers in the world?

“Fang Qingye, you are ruthless!” The voice of the Demon Girl rose, carrying resentment but also a bit of relief.

“Maybe one day, when this young girl surpasses you in the art of zither, you can truly be reborn from within the zither,” Fang Qingye said.

The voice of the Demon Girl no longer sounded, completely becoming the soul of the zither.

In another unknown location, the Martial Lord Fang Qingye was caught by a woman who was tightly pinching his ear, his face showing a bitter smile.
