Chapter 193 This child must not be kept
The phantom demon was dumbfounded. It looked at the dagger and honey, then at the smiling Su Luo, and felt that something was off.
Not only was Huan Yao bewildered, but Feng Xiyue and the others were also confused, their brows furrowed and their faces full of incomprehension.
What is Su Luo doing? Does she really intend to let this phantom demon go? Just because it's a juvenile phantom demon?
No! Impossible!
Su Luo isn't that kind of person! She's so cautious and intelligent; she couldn't possibly be unaware of the consequences of doing this!
So, what exactly does she want to do?
Only Chu Wenqing looked excited. His eyes were gleaming, and he seemed eager to say something, but then he shut his mouth, his face full of amusement.
So that's what Su Luo was planning. She's really...so wicked!
The phantom demon, completely unaware of the situation, asked, "...What is this?"
"Well, this is my chance for you."
Su Luo said gently, "Here are honey and a dagger. I can decide whether to spare your life based on your choice."
"what?"
The illusion demon was even more confused.
What the heck? It decides whether to spare its life based on its choice? How does it know which choice will prevent it from being killed? This is ridiculous!
Is this human cultivator out of her mind? Is she deliberately making things difficult for it?! Damn it!
The phantom demon cursed inwardly, but on the surface it still looked pitiful. It raised its face to reveal its childlike appearance, trying to soften the other party's heart.
"Sister...I...I really don't know how to choose, can I...can I not choose?"
"that's not allowed."
Su Luo's smile remained unchanged. As she spoke, she took out the Crimson Flame Spear that Lin Ji had returned to her and brandished it threateningly in front of Huan Yao.
"I'm only giving you one chance, so you'd better make the most of it and choose carefully. Of course, if you're unwilling, that's fine too, but this magical artifact I have will be sent directly to your clan."
"!"
Grass! ! !
This woman looks gentle, kind, and naive, but I never expected her to be so hard-hearted! She even dared to threaten it with a weapon!
The demon was so angry it wanted to curse, wishing it could pounce on Su Luo and bite her to death, but the situation was against it, and it couldn't possibly win against five opponents at once! It had no choice but to make a decision.
Huan Yao took a deep breath, finally resigned to her fate, and slowly said, "Then... I choose..."
"Choose."
Huan Yao looked down at the two items, examining them for a while before finally focusing her gaze on the packet of honey.
I've heard that human babies love to eat sweets. If it chooses honey, these people will probably lower their guard and think it's harmless, right?
It's it!
Thinking this, Huan Yao slowly reached out towards Mi Tang...
Meanwhile, Su Luo's smile remained unchanged as she calmly observed everything, her eyes dark and unfathomable.
Lin Ji narrowed his eyes, staring at Huan Yao's hand reaching for Mi Tang, the killing intent in his eyes could no longer be concealed.
That hand is really an eyesore...
Feng Xiyue and Song Qiao still looked completely bewildered.
Chu Wenqing's breathing quickened involuntarily, and his eyes were almost overflowing with anticipation.
It's coming! It's coming! The iconic scene is almost here!
Seeing Huan Yao pick up the honey, Chu Wenqing's eyes immediately lit up with dazzling light. He was extremely excited and blurted out, "It chose the candy! Su Luo, it chose the candy!"
Upon hearing this, the illusionary demon froze on the spot, sensing something was wrong.
What's wrong with choosing sugar? Is there a problem?
Chu Wenqing's next words plunged Huan Yao into despair: "Choosing candy shows that it is extremely cunning, trying to deceive us with candy to make us think it is harmless. This child must not be allowed to live!"
what? !
Upon hearing this, Huan Yao turned deathly pale and swayed precariously.
Why?! Why was that damned human monk able to guess its thoughts so accurately?!
The phantom demon panicked. It threw away the candy and lunged at the dagger, crying out in regret, "I...I made the wrong choice...I chose the dagger!"
To everyone's surprise, Chu Wenqing remained incredibly excited. He continued, "It chose a dagger, which means it intends to kill us. This kid must not be allowed to live!"
This won't work either?!
Huan Yao threw away the dagger again and waved her hands repeatedly: "I...I didn't! I...I haven't even chosen one yet!"
Chu Wenqing: "You were given a choice but didn't choose, which shows you're a traitor at heart, so you can't be kept alive!"
The phantom demon nearly collapsed.
This won't work, that won't work! What do I want?!
It shrieked, "Then I'll choose both!"
"Wanting both means you're extremely greedy, which will surely bring disaster! You shouldn't keep it!"
"Aaaaaah!" The Phantom Demon completely broke down.
Chu Wenqing was satisfied and looked pleased with himself.
Hehe, which modern person doesn't know this joke?! I never thought I'd be able to indulge in a bit of banter in the world of cultivation.
The others listened to Chu Wenqing and Huan Yao's conversation, their eyes widening in disbelief. After a long while, they finally came to their senses, and their lips twitched.
It seems that no matter what choice this phantom demon makes, it's doomed to die! The so-called choice is nothing but a bluff!
From the very beginning, Su Luo was playing tricks on this illusionary demon!
Su Luo is still the same Su Luo, she has no ulterior motives whatsoever!
As Huan Yao continued to break down, she suddenly realized something was wrong. Recalling what had just happened, her pupils dilated.
At this moment, even the dumbest thing would realize that it had been tricked. It roared and pounced on Su Luo with eyes wide open in fury.
"Aaaaaah! You tricked me?! I'm going to kill you!!"
Lin Ji's eyes flashed with ruthlessness, and he was about to make a move.
But Su Luo was faster than him. She pressed down the Crimson Flame Spear quickly and accurately, and in an instant, a huge flame surged towards the Illusion Demon.
The phantom demon's pupils shrank sharply, and it recoiled violently. Although it avoided a fatal blow, it was still wounded in the arm by the Crimson Flame Spear. Instantly, a sharp pain struck, and blue flames slowly began to burn from its arm.
"Ah... Ahhhhhh!"
The phantom demon screamed in agony, rolling on the ground, but no matter how much it struggled, the flames could not be extinguished and continued to spread in all directions.
"Aaaaaah! It hurts so much! I don't want to die, help me!!"
The fear of impending death terrified the Illusion Demon. It no longer cared about anything else and frantically begged Su Luo for mercy, even lunging at her.
"roll!"
Lin Ji's eyes were fierce. He stood in front of Su Luo and kicked her two meters away.
"Cough cough cough..."
The demon coughed up mouthfuls of blood, trying to crawl but unable to get up. It felt like all the bones in its body were broken, and the fire had already reached its chest.
Ouch! It hurts so much!!
The phantom demon knew it was about to die, but... it was unwilling to accept it!
It has mistaken the person! The girl in front of it is not kind at all; she is even more vicious than a demon!
It was panting heavily, struggling to lift its head, staring fiercely at Su Luo and questioning her, its eyes filled with such venomous hatred and resentment.
"Why...why kill me? I swore to be your slave, why?!"
Seeing the disheveled Huan Yao, Su Luo showed no pity. Upon hearing this, she even asked in return, "Don't you really understand?"
"I don't understand! You vicious woman! You... you don't even spare a cub like me! You're utterly cruel! Even after I die... I won't let you go to hell!"
The phantom demon glared at Su Luo with venomous resentment. Facing imminent death, it simply began to curse Su Luo.
"Cub?"
As if she had heard the biggest joke in the world, Su Luo suddenly sneered, and what she said next was even more shocking.
"You're nothing but a phantom demon that's rejuvenated! You're older than all of us combined, yet you deliberately act cute and pretend to be a cub to deceive people. You're shameless! I'm afraid you've harmed others precisely because of this childlike appearance!"
The demon was struck dumb, his face turning deathly pale.
"what?!"
"It's not a juvenile phantom demon?!"
"How...how is it possible?"
Chu Wenqing and the others were extremely surprised, and even Lin Ji was somewhat astonished.
He hadn't noticed that at all. How did Su Luo find out?
