Chapter 352: Chapter 79: The Power of Fate (Request for Monthly Pass)_2

Lan Ran was just about to answer when those two survivors started yelling, "Senior, you must not respond!" and "This monster’s technique can kill instantly!"

After suffering the deaths of their companions, everyone knew that no matter what, responding to Split Mouth Woman’s questions meant certain death; they said survival depended on not answering.

With this thought in mind, you decided not to answer.

Seeing this, Knot chuckled inwardly, "You fell for it!" This was exactly why he’d left those two survivors alive! In reality, not answering would actually result in extra damage from the technique; it was a deliberate ploy to mislead you.

Turns out, your strength had indeed made him wary; Split Mouth Woman was his trump card. Now that the card had been revealed, it had to achieve something, hence the crafty trap set by this cunning master.

Being a master above first level, he could also be called a level zero, so he was a cunning zero! You were caught in a zero sandwich!

Damn!

God damn cunning zero!

Trying to pull a Nantong here too!

Xu Shu looked at the two of his team members completely overwhelmed and the fearsome momentum of Split Mouth Woman and fell silent, lost in thought.

"Jeez, this Split Mouth Woman is much stronger than Fujiang. This soul interrogation is accompanied by a mental attack, which is really bad news."

"Although Lan Ran’s spiritual power is extraordinary and she possesses the Illusion Technique ’Mirror Flower Water Moon’ to break it, she probably can’t withstand the same level of mental attacks."

"If she gets killed, I’ll be helpless."

"No wonder, Evil Ghost Luo Suo has some tricks up his sleeve, having lived for thousands of years..."

Xu Shu looked up and down at the well-proportioned Split Mouth Woman, his eyes darting around.

Now, neither ’beautiful’ nor ’not beautiful’ was an option.

And ’not answering’ was just falling into their trap.

Got to thank Tai Chu Scroll for its ever-irksome narrations sometimes, or else, Xu Shu’s first choice would naturally have been to keep his mouth shut.

But, if I can’t avoid this trick, I’ll be in danger...

Despite Split Mouth Woman having only that one move, there’s a saying, ’a single trick is all you need to traverse the world.’ If she hits me, even though I’m confident I can take her down, there’s still Fujiang herself and Knot to face! If I get seriously injured here, I’ll probably lose later.

So, I have to avoid getting hurt as much as possible, or even kill Split Mouth Woman without injury! Otherwise, Knot will likely profit from my downfall.

This is a bit tricky... The enemy has launched an attack that’s sure to hit, how can I dodge it...

Xu Shu immediately struggled with this problem.

Honestly, Split Mouth Woman is pretty strong.

But, such a powerful technique must have a weakness to exploit.

What could it be?

Thinking about it, her ’Soul Interrogation’ seems to follow some rules, activating only after completing the interaction to trigger that powerful, sure-hit psychic attack.

Hmm?

Rules?

Responding triggers the mental attack, but it seems it needs further dialogue...

As the great Althias Arthur once said, rules exist to be exploited.

You seem to have found a loophole in Split Mouth Woman’s technique, promptly having Lan Ran answer her: "Miss, do you think you’re beautiful?"

"Hey!" Noticing this from afar, Luo Suo was first stunned, then chuckled knowingly, aware that you had already lost.

This kind of response that throws the question back doesn’t fully resolve Split Mouth Woman.

Then Split Mouth Woman also tore off her mask, revealing her ferociously twisted mouth that split to the back of her head, sneering, "You see, am I beautiful like this?"

She’s already raised her scissors, while you feel mysterious forces locking on to you from every direction in the void, making it impossible to dodge, a sure hit.

Soul Interrogation: Sure Hit! Already launched, about to strike.

You... your first move ineffective, remained unfazed and stared directly at her ample chest and said, "Your face is just so-so, but this figure is really heart-stopping, madam. Just taking off the mask isn’t enough, remove a few more items, then I can further evaluate."

"?" As the words fell, everyone present, including ghosts and Split Mouth Woman, were stunned.

Seeing this scene, the two Cursing Masters couldn’t help but applaud admiringly, "Brilliant, there is such a pushy way to solve this!" and "Damn, why didn’t I think of it! It seems like the Curse Spirit can’t continue now."

?

Tai Chu Scroll felt they didn’t understand you, Tai Chu Scroll thought you really did want to see what’s beneath her clothes, you darn old rascal.

Knot’s face changed immediately, he sensed something was off and quickly tried to summon Split Mouth Woman back.

However, he found, his summoning had failed!

The reason lay in the fact that not only had you answered the question, you had allowed the question to continue, which was legitimate.

’Soul Interrogation’ once started, cannot end, this strongest technique applies the same to his own people, Knot couldn’t stop this from happening.

And by not responding to you, Split Mouth Woman herself halted the process of the technique and naturally couldn’t attack you anymore.

You’ve resolved the ’Soul Interrogation’ lockdown!

If Split Mouth Woman wanted to continue her ’Soul Interrogation,’ then she should have allowed you to assess her beauty under fair and objective conditions based on your request.
