Dance Of The Phoenix
102. Deviancy

"You better kill me! Kill me!"

Gu Yuena closed her eyes as she sat on the chair, ignoring the cries of the female magician who kept roaring to be killed. Relax, you will die alone. He just wanted to interrogate.

Su Churan who accompanied could only sigh in her heart. Gu Yuena was very calm facing the woman who kept shouting for her to be killed. Looks pathetic.

"Incuse me, I will make your death faster as you wish" Gu Yuena said.

The female witch remained silent for a while. In the end, will he not die? But rather than being tormented like this, it was better for him to make things go faster. Merely, did he really have to tell the identity of his master?

"Well if you don't want to tell. But at least, tell me what you're up to." Gu Yuena actually already knew what the plan of the Queen of Linghun Palace was, but not completely. He needs more information.

"Sacrifice of 1000 blood."

Gu Yuena pulled her eyebrows. "What's that?"

"To make the sacrifice of 1000 blood by gathering blood and souls into the medium for resurrection or power. The Queen wants to bring His Majesty back to life, so use that way."

Gu Yuena smiled. "So that's it." He already had an idea of what the Queen wanted to do.

"The queen wants to create a monster suitable for collecting 1000 blood."

"What would he do if he failed?"

The witch nodded weakly. He's too tired. "Now, can you let me go?"

Gu Yuena sighed. "Because you so quickly want to die, then I'll grant it."

Before Gu Yuena ended the witch's life, Su Churan hurriedly restrained her hand and stood in front of her.

"Xiao Yuena, are you going to kill?" Su Churan looked at him anxiously.

"Why? He wants it so much." Gu Yuena looked at Su Churan guiltlessly, as if all she did was trivial.

"Killing will only bring you negative energy. Remember what's inside you." Su Churan whispered, "Do you want your son to be a psychopath?"

Gu Yuena remained silent for a while, then looked at the woman with a frown. "There really is such an influence?" He just found out.

"Of course!" Su Churan did not want her nephew to look like the psychopath. He can be depressed to deal with it. "If you want your child to be sweet and cute, then you must be kind."

"Am I not good?"

"What?" Su Churan glanced towards the poor witch. What such torturous act could be called being kind? Gu Yuena had even just frightened Ming Chin like a ghost!

"I think I'm good enough. Bringing a miserable person to death instead of staying alive in this horrible world, it was a good deed."

What kind of logic is that! Su Churan felt like crying to face this heartless woman. He was afraid that his nephew would bear such a resemblance.

It will be hard to change that view. Gu Yuena said it with a face without guilt. Really tired himself.

"Yes, you're right." Su Churan smiled wryly. "But let me take care of it. You just have to go back to your room and relax like you're unemployed. I'm still looking for a way to get the Underworld border repaired and send a message right away."

"Don't need my help?"

Su Churan maintained her smile despite wanting to cry. "No need, I'm overloaded."

Gu Yuena nodded indifferently, then left from there. The focus now was the sacrifice of 1000 blood that the Queen of Linghun Palace would make. He has to make a careful plan.

After Gu Yuena's departure, Su Churan turned to look at the witch who was still lying helplessly. He also showed his flat face just like when he was in the Assassin Guild.

"There's a last message?" tanyakanya.

The witch woke up a little. "Want to know something? No matter how much you try to change it, Her Majesty the Queen has created the monster well. He's done it."

Su Churan's thoughts were directed at Gu Yuena. What monster did the witch say was actually Gu Yuena?

"What do you mean?" ask Su Churan. He wants to make sure.

Su Churan again thought of Gu Yuena. If it was true that Gu Yuena was something that the Queen of Linghun Palace had created, it would be extremely dangerous. A self-called monster is someone who is brainwashed. He became afraid, when Gu Yuena actually went to Linghun Palace, she would become such a monster.

"Without going to the palace, he's been doing it for a long time." The witch smiled triumphantly. His own body was an example of the treatment of a certain way of thinking of monsters that did not have a true feeling of empathy.

He empathizes, but not the usual empathy. The way to let go of misery according to his perspective was death.

Now Su Churan understood why Gu Yuena previously had the thought of aborting her own womb. A truly terrible perversion.

His heart was actually good, but it had wrong logic. How to handle it?

***

"It looks like I'm getting crazy," muttered Gu Yuena. He leaned against the wall, looking at the desolate palace courtyard while hugging himself.

"Miss, why do you think like that?" asked Xiao Bai.

Xiao Hei said, "Miss has experienced two lives and two bad childhoods. His mind is so fucked. Miss, should you just rest for a few months?"

"I always feel restless if I don't do anything." Gu Yuena responded heavily. He held his dizzy head for a moment, then sighed, "Some times something has bothered him in my mind, asking me to kill more."

"What is soul power again?" guess Xiao Hei.

Gu Yuena nodded slowly. "While it's not true, there are times when killing becomes more true."

Gu Yuena knew what was right and wrong, but she could not stop the desire of her bloodthirsty heart. Moreover, if he had seen the blood, he would not have been able to stop acting crazy. So he used that deviant logic of death and life as an excuse to calm his heart.

"Su Churan seems to be afraid of you," Xiao Bai said.

"He's always a bitch, just let him be scared." Gu Yuena did not care much. He said such a horrible thing earlier, Su Churan would definitely be more and more vigilant. That's a lot nicer.

For now, he would think of a way to avoid Linghun Palace. The gestational age is only a few weeks, so there should be no problems until the child is born. I have to wait another nine months.

In the near future, it was possible that they would not act after Gu Yuena injured the leader of the Linghun Hall. I don't know when they'll act again. He hoped it would not be as bad as he had imagined, let alone to the point of touching Tianshuang Palace.

"They may not have had that plan yet" he murmured. Linghun Palace touched the Luo Clan, tantamount to bluffing the Tianshuang Palace. However, they were obviously not going to do anything directly while Bai Youzhe was still around.

Unless the absence of Bai Youzhe in the Palace was known to them.

"Let's talk about something fun. Miss, have you thought of a name for a little baby?" Xiao Bai did not want to be saturated with conflicted thoughts. He wants to have fun and welcome new members.

Gu Yuena shook her head. "I'm bad at naming." So, leave it to Bai Youzhe. Thinking about it made Gu Yuena feel tingled in her heart.

"Usually humans will use special nicknames to talk to their babies while still in the womb. How do you call him?"

"Eitherway. Is that necessary?"

"Of course you need to!" Xiao Bai was too excited to the point of jumping high.

Xiao Hei only looked at him with a flat face. At his own time, it was not necessary. He knew nothing because he was inexperienced. Xiao Bai said so, Gu Yuena thought about it.

"Call me little brother." Gu Yuena was too lazy to think of names. He himself uses the character's real name for a pseudonym.

"Sister? Is he your sister?" Xiao Bai commented.

"...."

"You gave it a name." Xiao Hei himself was similar to Gu Yuena.

Xiao Bai sighed. He himself is not good at making names and does not dare to make them original. Gu Yuena was inexperienced, would definitely agree despite having a bad meaning.

"Just talk about it later when Youzhe's home." Gu Yuena could not think of such a light thing. His mind was already used to thinking about serious matters like politics and war, so taking everything trivial to such fun was extremely complicated and absurd.

He hoped that Bai Youzhe would return quickly. All this time, he had always felt wary because of his own condition. Recalling back on Gu Yueli's words, he grew increasingly agitated and would not be able to have a quiet day.

The situation looks very safe. But no one knew how someone sneaked in and would kill him while sleeping. That's a terrible thing.
