Young Master Is Being Jealous Again!
Chapter 153: He’s Being Robbed of His Life, Why Not Stop It?

Chapter 153: Chapter 153: He’s Being Robbed of His Life, Why Not Stop It?

Changyuan looked back at Xia Yunchen lying on the sofa, his face serene and his eyes firmly shut, as if he were immersed in sleep.

He still remembered the first time he had appeared before Xia, in the deep mountains and waters.

Smelling the familiar scent of his master, the sealed contract started to stir.

The collision of their souls excited and shocked him alike.

Regrettably, his master was afraid of snakes.

He was actually afraid of snakes!

Changyuan had imagined a million scenarios for their reunion, yet, he never thought that his master would be afraid of him.

Qin Ruan, who witnessed Xia Yunchen’s fear of snakes firsthand, could very much empathize with Changyuan’s helplessness.

However, that didn’t dissipate her confusion. She pointed at the female puppet laying on the ground and asked, "Since you acknowledge Xia Yunchen as your master and the puppet is stealing his life force, why didn’t you stop her?"

Changyuan followed the direction of her finger, a deadly intent flashing across his reddened eyes.

All he could do was grind his teeth and growl, "She bound herself to my master with a Peach Blossom Curse. As long as the secret technique isn’t broken, I can’t harm her."

Each word carried a deadly Evil Qi, his deep-seated hatred for the puppet apparent.

"I see." Qin Ruan nodded slightly: "Do you have a way for her to willingly break the curse?"

Changyuan shook his head.

Qin Ruan was skeptical of him, "From what I understand, an ancient beast like you can destroy worlds and eliminate gods, yet you’re unable to deal with a mere hundred-year-old puppet?"

"She has entwined herself too deeply with my master. To me, she’s like half a master. I can’t harm her."

Otherwise, he would never have allowed the puppet to be by his master’s side for this long.

"The puppet has stolen a substantial amount of Xia Yunchen’s life energy. Even if he is a virtuous and kind person, he couldn’t have lasted half a year. You must have stepped in to save his life."

Beyond that, Qin Ruan could think of no other reason.

Xia Yunchen may indeed be a virtuous and kind person, but his life energy isn’t infinite.

Changyuan: "Exactly, my master and I share a soul contract. In this life, my master will live as long as I do."

Even if the puppet steals all of the master’s life force, as long as Changyuan doesn’t fall, Xia Yunchen will never die.

A soul contract and sharing a lifespan with an ancient beast were alien ideas to Qin Ruan.

Xia Yunchen’s experience hinted at other underlying factors.

Qin Ruan had no desire nor interest in probing other people’s secrets.

At first, she thought Changyuan and the puppet had formed an alliance, fearing that if they teamed up, she wouldn’t make it through the night unscathed.

Now that everyone’s position was clear, she no longer had any reservations about what she was planning to do next.

"I am going to break the curse on your master now. Once finished, I will take my payment and leave; we will not interfere with each other."

"Couldn’t ask for more." Changyuan’s voice regained its impassiveness.

His sudden appearance was meant to resolve the Peach Blossom Curse on his master.

The woman in front of him had an extraordinary background, if anyone in this world could help his master, she would be the one.

A satisfied look appeared on Qin Ruan’s face, with a faint curved smile at the corner of her lips.

She turned to look at the puppet lying on the ground, trembling with fear and pathetically.

"Have you thought it through? Do you want to break the Peach Blossom Curse yourself?"

The puppet laid on the ground trying keeping a low profile, seemingly to ignore Qin Ruan’s question.

She clearly heard every single word of the conversation between Changyuan and Qin Ruan. Knowing that even an ancient beast cannot harm her, made her feel even more conniving.

Her defiant demeanor was rather annoying and vexing to Qin Ruan.

But Qin Ruan knew the puppet’s thinking.

Since she dared to discuss the matter in front of the puppet with Changyuan, she naturally had a measure to deal with the puppet.

The Golden Whip, consolidated by the power of the Nether Divine Power, once again appeared in Qin Ruan’s hand.

She coldly stared at the puppet on the ground, and her icy gaze released a glacial light. "I perhaps didn’t make it clear earlier, the Golden Whip infused with Nether Power when struck at a Puppet Soul, can strip away its soul."
