Chapter 192 Falling out
Three days had passed since the incident. Lin Susu was unable to obtain information from the outside because she couldn't use the Sky-Eye Bulbul. Even because of the weakness of the system, the forbidden butterfly poison that had been suppressed became even more powerful.

She forcefully suppressed the sweet taste in her throat and rubbed her forehead, feeling upset.

Because I was afraid that my anger towards Zhu Yan would not be concealed and would be exposed in front of him, I had been looking for excuses not to see him these days.

But procrastination is not the answer. We still need to adjust our mentality as soon as possible.

"Knock knock."

There was a knock on the door.

Lin Susu looked up and saw that it was Gu Rushuang!

She was dressed in plain clothes and stood at the door looking at her. She looked haggard that was visible to the naked eye, "Your Highness asked me to come to see Miss Lin."

Gu Rushuang explained his purpose.

"Come in."

Lin Susu spoke.

Gu Rushuang stepped inside without taking a seat, "I wonder what Miss Lin is looking for as a concubine?"

Lin Susu stared at her silently for a long time without speaking. For a long time, Gu Rushuang's face became paler and paler, her figure swayed, and she couldn't help but hold her right hand on the table to support herself.

Lin Susu looked her over, poured a cup of tea, and said calmly, "Do you still remember those girls you killed in Zhongdu?"

She dipped her fingers in water and wrote on the table, "The formation is operating normally, and people in two cities have suffered. Is the Xumi mirror you gave me fake?"

Gu Rushuang's pupils shrank, her lips couldn't control their trembling, and she said, "I remember."

He reached out and wrote on the table, "The Sumeru Mirror is real. Your Highness already knows that the Sumeru Mirror is in your hands. As for the grand formation, it can already operate without the Sumeru Mirror."

After a pause, she continued to write, "The formation has been successful, but the energy required is huge, and millions of lives must be sacrificed at the same time to achieve the conditions for resurrection!"

She hurriedly finished writing, then hurriedly wiped it with water, and wrote again, "I told Your Highness that the formation is not perfect yet, and I just hope it can be delayed for a little longer."

After writing this, Gu Rushuang raised her head and looked at Lin Susu, with tears in her eyes, and a smile that seemed to be relieved at the corner of her lips, "Miss Lin, I am willing to pay with my life."

She slowly folded her hands in front of her forehead and saluted Lin Susu, "Miss Lin, please do it."

Lin Susu looked away and snorted coldly, "Don't you think death is a reward for you?"

Gu Rushuang trembled and laughed miserably. She said nothing, held back her tears, bowed again, turned around and staggered out of the door.

Lin Susu looked at her back, closed her eyes and took a long breath.

Zhu Yan already knew that Gu Rushuang gave her the Xumi Mirror.

There has been no trace of Gu Rushuang in this period of time. When I saw her just now, she was in extremely bad condition. She must have used some kind of Gu to keep her appearance bright.

During the period when she disappeared, she was probably severely punished. Zhu Yan would not let those who betrayed him die easily.

By letting Gu Rushuang come to see Lin Susu, she was actually handing over her life and death to Lin Susu.

In other words, Lin Susu could help Gu Rushuang by just dying.

Can……

Lin Susu's eyebrows were cold, how could a person who had sinned so much deserve to die so easily.

Live in pain.

From the information revealed by Gu Rushuang, Lin Susu guessed that the deaths of the people in the two cities were probably Zhu Yan's handiwork.

She clenched her fists, trying to control the tremors of anger that surged through her body, and she couldn't suppress the throbbing pain in her heart.

Hold back!

We can't just admit defeat like this!
Don't admit defeat until the last minute...

She thought about her past self, who had been fighting for many years, and in the end, when she walked through the charred wasteland, there was no one left alive.

Endless loneliness and despair overwhelmed her. She put down her weapon and walked step by step into the endless swarm of zombies...

At least at this moment, it hasn't reached that point yet.

She wiped the moisture from the corners of her eyes with trembling hands, and when she raised her head again, all her emotions had been covered up.

At least... Zhu Yan is still willing to act with her...

Lin Susu laughed to herself.

After a few days, Lin Susu kept herself locked in the room. Zhu Yan couldn't bear it anymore and opened the door with a gloomy look.

The cold wind outside carried snowflakes and drifted in. The young man stood at the door wearing a dark purple robe. His dark hair was tied up high, and his whole person was inexplicably eerie.

He slowly walked in and walked out of the shadows. Liu Rang bowed and closed the door.

"What's going on these days?"

He came to her, his voice was still gentle, and there was concern in the corners of his eyebrows.

Lin Susu opened her eyelids and glanced at him, then looked away coldly. The lower jaw was quickly pinched and raised, and the girl's face was forced to turn towards him.

"But did I make you angry?"

He leaned down, his eyes wandering on her face, and his fingertips rubbed the girl's chin.

Lin Susu slapped his hand away and said coldly, "Have you not had enough fun yet?"

Zhu Yan was stunned for a moment, with a bit of innocence in his eyes, as if he was a little confused.

Lin Susu continued, "People in the two cities, hundreds of thousands of lives, aren't you afraid that they will look for you at night?"

There was silence for a long time.

Little by little, the young man calmed down the expression on his face, and there was no longer any emotion in his eyes.

He asked her in a stiff and weird tone of voice, "Why don't you continue acting? Didn't you say you like me?"

Lin Susu couldn't help feeling cold all over, and her hair stood on end.

Zhu Yan was in a terrifying state at the moment, as if he was a life-seeking evil ghost with no humanity.

She actually wondered for a moment whether she was being too impulsive?

But acting was just acting after all. He knew that Gu Rushuang gave her the Xumi Mirror, knew her plans, and had always known that she was acting, so how could he really let go of his guard?

She pretended to kiss him on the street that day, and the moment he subconsciously stepped back was enough to explain the problem.

"Why don't you speak?"

Zhu Yan's cold voice continued to sound.

Lin Susu pursed her lips for a long time before speaking calmly, "Get out."

"……Ah."

Zhu Yan suddenly let out a deep sneer, which made people's hair stand on end.

"Lin Susu, how many times have you lied to me?"

His hand touched her face, his fingertips were cold, and slowly slid to her throat. He grabbed her and pulled her close, tilting his head slightly, with a sinister look in his eyes.

"I should have killed you."

He murmured in a low voice, as if he thought of something, and slightly raised the corners of his lips, with a touch of bad pleasure on his face.

"Since you are angry with me because of those untouchables, why don't I kill a few more and make you suffer even more?"

"...!!"

Lin Susuhuo stood up. Zhu Yan was slightly startled and unconsciously let go of his hand. Not expecting the next moment, Lin Susu kicked him and hit him in the knee.

Zhu Yan took a few steps back in pain.

"Lin Susu!!"

He was in disbelief, gritting his teeth, and his originally dark pupils suddenly turned red, making it difficult to conceal his sinister look.

"Do you really think that this king won't kill you!"

Lin Susu's breathing was rapid and her chest heaved violently. After enduring it again and again, she turned around, picked up the teacup on the table and threw it over, shouting loudly.

"Then you kill!!"

Zhu Yan raised his hand subconsciously, and the cup hit his arm and fell to the ground with a thud.

"come!"

Lin Susu's eyes were hot and her face turned red with anger.

As the two looked at each other, Zhu Yan's momentum weakened involuntarily.

"you……"

He spoke in a sinister and hesitant tone. When he saw Lin Susu turning her head and starting to pick up the teapot, she couldn't help but step back, but she didn't show any signs of weakness.

"Lin Susu, you shrew!"

"Snapped!"

The teapot shattered under his feet, and then the cup. Zhu Yan retreated and dodged, and finally had to exit the room.

As the last cup hit the door, Lin Susu lost all strength and collapsed on the chair.

The system looked horrified, "Host, are you really not afraid that he will kill you?!"

Lin Susu couldn't help but raise the corners of her lips, "What are you afraid of? The worst case scenario is death, just take a gamble!"

She made the right bet, Zhu Yan was more tolerant of her than she imagined.

This is a good thing...
