Chapter 2335 - 2025: Don’t Even Think About Making Us Betray the Heavenly Fate Sect!
Lu Chen didn’t beat around the bush and said directly, "I plan to write a letter to your Sect Hierarch myself."
Upon hearing this, Zhou Xiaoxiao and Zhou Youyou were slightly taken aback.
Write a letter directly to their Sect Hierarch? What exactly was Lu Chen trying to do?
Quickly, the sisters came to a realization. What else could this scoundrel want, other than craving their Sect Hierarch’s body and wanting to sleep with her?
Even knowing Lu Chen’s intentions, Zhou Xiaoxiao still asked, "Why would you write a letter to our Sect Hierarch?"
Lu Chen spread his hands with a smile and, staring at Zhou Xiaoxiao’s stunningly beautiful features, his gaze filled with strong aggression, said, "What do you think I intend to do?"
Zhou Xiaoxiao snorted lightly, "You truly are fearless."
Writing a letter directly to their Sect Hierarch was tantamount to challenging her.
If their Sect Hierarch learned a mere human like Lu Chen actually wanted to sleep with her, she would surely be furious, wanting nothing more than to kill Lu Chen with a single strike.
After all, she is a Deceit King; which Deceit King could tolerate being desired by human blood?
In the Mysterious world, even the most ordinary Mysterious being never developed romantic feelings with a human.
In the eyes of the Mysterious beings, humans are merely food. How could they possibly engage in such acts with food?
Even now, Zhou Xiaoxiao still felt that engaging in such acts with Lu Chen was disgraceful, even if it might help her improve her Realm.
It could be anticipated that if Lu Chen truly wrote the letter to their Sect Hierarch, she would be utterly furious.
Zhou Xiaoxiao glanced at Lu Chen, thinking to herself that his purpose was probably to provoke their Sect Hierarch and lure her to the Capital city.
The Capital city housed so many strong individuals; if their Sect Hierarch was fooled and truly came to confront Lu Chen, she might end up being subdued and sealed.
Realizing this possibility, Zhou Xiaoxiao said, "If you write to our Sect Hierarch, doesn’t that mean you already know our Identity? At that point, our Sect Hierarch will surely label Youyou and me as traitors."
The two sisters had approached Lu Chen as undercover agents, but now Lu Chen was having them deliver a letter, indicating that he knew their Identity. That’s why he used them to deliver a letter to the Heavenly Fate Sect’s Sect Hierarch.
Lu Chen sat down next to Zhou Xiaoxiao, lifted the teapot on the table, poured himself a cup of tea, and took a light sip, "Anyway, the Heavenly Fate Sect no longer trusts you now, so betrayal doesn’t matter. Besides, even if you did betray the Heavenly Fate Sect, as long as you two stay in Zhen Nan Prince Manor, your Sect Hierarch can’t do anything to you."
Zhou Xiaoxiao retorted immediately, "You want us to betray the Heavenly Fate Sect? Don’t even think about it!"
After another sip of tea, Lu Chen set down the cup and, with a meaningful gaze, said to Zhou Xiaoxiao, "There’s hardly any difference between what you’re doing now and betrayal."
Hearing this, Zhou Xiaoxiao couldn’t help but clench her fists.
She had become somewhat confused, uncertain about what to do in the future.
Should she continue staying at Zhen Nan Prince Manor, feeding on Lu Chen’s Vitality? Or should she leave the Capital and return to the Heavenly Fate Sect?
Frankly, if she wanted to leave, she could have done so long ago, as Lu Chen no longer restricted their freedom or kept people watching them.
Yet her heart was still reluctant to leave.
Most importantly, Zhou Youyou seemed to have already developed feelings for Lu Chen.
This gave Zhou Xiaoxiao a significant headache. She could still suppress her emotions, treating Lu Chen as blood food, and seeing Dual Cultivation as eating.
However, her sister didn’t seem to think the same way.
Whenever Lu Chen and Zhou Youyou were in the room together, Zhou Xiaoxiao could clearly sense her sister’s excitement.
At that moment, Lu Chen continued, "I’ll write to your Sect Hierarch soon. Please deliver the letter for me. I believe your Sect Hierarch will be interested in me."
Falling into silence, Zhou Xiaoxiao didn’t immediately respond.
Standing nearby, Zhou Youyou glanced at Lu Chen, then at her sister, her gaze shifting back and forth between them.
In her heart, she actually felt she could help Lu Chen deliver the letter, but with her sister present, she didn’t dare say anything.
Compared to Zhou Xiaoxiao, Zhou Youyou had already completely sided with Lu Chen.
From her perspective, she had already been controlled by Lu Chen’s Incantation Skill, so considering the best for Lu Chen seemed natural.
Anyway, betrayal wasn’t related to her—it wasn’t her choice. She had been turned into a plaything by that despicable and shameless human, and everything she did was involuntary.
After a while, Zhou Xiaoxiao finally spoke, "I can help you deliver the letter. Whether our Sect Hierarch believes what you say is up to you."
Seeing Zhou Xiaoxiao agreeing, Lu Chen felt delighted inside.
He smiled, "Don’t worry, your Sect Hierarch will believe it."
With that, Lu Chen stood up and left the room, heading to his study to write the letter.
Watching Lu Chen’s departing figure, Zhou Xiaoxiao involuntarily sighed.
She understood clearly that if they sent this letter, their Sect Hierarch would trust the sisters even less.
As undercover agents assisting the enemy in sending a letter, how could one not see it as betrayal?
At this point, Zhou Youyou quietly asked, "Sister, do you think it’s possible our Sect Hierarch will come to the Capital city after receiving Lu Chen’s letter?"
Zhou Xiaoxiao replied, "Impossible. Even if the Hierarch believes Lu Chen’s body houses infinite Vitality, for her own safety, she wouldn’t come to the Capital city, unless Lu Chen is willing to leave the city."
Their Sect Hierarch isn’t foolish. No matter how enticing Lu Chen’s premium blood food might be, considering Zhen Nan Prince Manor’s power, Yun Yudie wouldn’t personally rush to the Capital city to meet Lu Chen. Instead, she’d try to lure him out of the city.
But Lu Chen isn’t a fool either, and he won’t leave the Capital city.
In Zhou Xiaoxiao’s eyes, the chance for them to meet directly is slim; either the Heavenly Fate Sect destroys Zhen Nan Prince Manor, or Zhen Nan Prince Manor locates the Heavenly Fate Sect’s headquarters to subdue and seal their Sect Hierarch.
Hearing her sister’s words, Zhou Youyou pursed her lips, saying nothing further.
To her, none of this mattered now—staying by Lu Chen’s side, consuming his Vitality, working hard to improve her Cultivation State was all that mattered.
As for the issues between Zhen Nan Prince Manor and the Heavenly Fate Sect, she no longer intended to get involved.
...
The news of Prince Zhen Nan leaving the Capital city and returning to his fief quickly spread throughout the Capital city.
After all, as the only Alien King in Dazhou, his return to his fief was a significant event for the entire court.
Since his fief was revoked, Prince Zhen Nan had been in the Capital city for countless years, and this was his first departure.
Many in the Zhou Royal Family distrusted him, but considering Prince Zhen Nan was going to Guangling County to deal with those few Deceit Kings, the court officials had little to say.
Under the night’s veil, silver light spilled over the courtyard, the cool moon hanging in the sky.
Scattered stars dotted the skies above. A gentle evening breeze swept through the long corridor, stirring the scattered leaves before the steps.
Silhouetted old trees, branches crisscrossing, cast mottled shadows over the cobblestones below.
The surroundings were hushed, with only the copper bell at the eaves breaking the silence with its low whispers in the wind.
In the courtyard, a man dressed in brocade sat by a stone table, seemingly waiting for someone.
Suddenly, a figure clad in a black robe appeared in the courtyard.
"Do you already know about Prince Zhen Nan leaving the Capital?"
