“Shen Lang, you’re right. A woman’s guarantee could never be trusted.” Qin Mengli smiled coldly before speaking, “You’re right. I will still kill you even after you said it. Since it’s so, consider yourself dead already!”
Yang Dingtian smiled bitterly, “I know!”
Qin Mengli rebuked, “If so, do you have any last wish before you die?”
Yang Dingtian instinctively looked towards the plum blossom on Qin Mengli’s waist. He opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something.
But ultimately, he didn’t speak it out. He shook his head and replied, “I have no last wish!”
Qin Mengli replied, “That’s good. Time for you to die then!”
After she spoke, Qin Mengli stretched out her hand and was about to clap her palm to signal for experts to come in so that she could chop off Yang Dingtian’s head and pull off his tongue so that she would be able to calm the hatred in her heart!
Immediately, Yang Dingtian picked up a golden dagger from the table at the side.
That dagger looked extremely luxurious and was completely covered in gold. The handle was embedded fully with gems as well.
On the contrary, Qin Mengli paused and smiled coldly, “Shen Lang, are you trying to kidnap me as your hostage?”
Yang Dingtian didn’t speak. Rather, he searched the area. After which, he found a unique looking bottle within a big pile of elixir bottles.
“This bottle should be the Icebound Soul Attraction, right? It’s a type of extremely expensive incense. It would turn into fumes after it had been burnt. There isn’t any poison in it. Rather, it would cause a person to enter a splendid state.” Yang Dingtian narrated unhurriedly, “However, before it is burnt, it is extremely poisonous. One would die once it touches a person’s blood. Right?”
“Correct.” Qin Mengli smiled coldly, “You wish to use it to kill me? Bring it on.”
Yang Dingtian shook his head. Immediately after, he rubbed the Icebound Soul Attraction toxic on the blade of the dagger. Subsequently, he placed the dagger across his neck and replied unhurriedly, “No need to trouble others if you wish to kill me. I can do it myself!”
Immediately, Qin Mengli was startled. Indeed, she was dumbfounded by this sudden change of event.
However, she smiled coldly immediately after, “Shen Lang, don’t bother playing this kind of tricky game. It’s useless!”
Yang Dingtian went forward unhurriedly. All of a sudden, he swept a slap across Qin Mengli’s matchless cheek ruthlessly after taking his aim on it.
SLAP...
Qin Mengli was sent flying out immediately. Her absolutely beautiful face turned red and swollen immediately with blood flowing out from the corner of her mouth.
Suddenly, Qin Mengli was rendered dumbstruck completely. Immediately after, she was truly angered as she cried out, “I’m going to dismember you into thousands of pieces, thousands of pieces!”
“No need. I can do it myself!” Yang Dingtian replied nonchalantly.
Subsequently, he slashed with the dagger that was moistened with toxicity across his neck.
Immediately, blood flowed out, and it instantly changed color!
The instant Yang Dingtian was about to collapse, he looked at Qin Mengli and issued an extremely affectionate and yearning trembling gentle voice, “Sister Meng, you should not degrade yourself but rather, treasure yourself more!”
After which, he collapsed onto the ground and showed no signs of breathing!
From the time he slapped her to him committing suicide, all of this happened too quickly.
Qin Mengli was completely unable to react to this. Most importantly, the affection and yearnings Shen Lang issued at his last moment were so entrenched and genuine.
Furthermore, the phrase ‘Sister Meng’ had triggered an extremely remote memory.
Who exactly was he? Why was he so affectionate to her?
It seemed as if she remembered this person, yet she couldn’t clearly remember him as well.
While Qin Mengli was stupefied, Yang Dingtian had already collapsed onto the ground. The blood that was flowing out from the wound was covered in blue because of high toxicity.
Immediately, Qin Mengli shouted out in alarm, “Men, men... Bring over the antidote for Icebound Soul Attraction quickly!”
But very quickly, she found the Icebound Soul Attraction’s antidote herself as she poured it into Yang Dingtian’s mouth and wound!
*************************************
When Yang Dingtian woke up, he had already left the underground golden palace and was laid on top of a soft bed.
When he widened his eyes, an absolutely beautiful and white cheek came into his line of sight.
It was Qin Mengli who sat at the bedside. Her complexion was haggard, and her beautiful eyes were covered in bloodshot.
When she saw that Yang Dingtian had woken up, her beautiful eyes immediately became complicated. Afterward, she was hesitating what kind of tone she should speak in. Ultimately, she used a tranquil voice, “You have woken up? Now, tell me. Who exactly are you? Why did you tell me those words during your last moment? Why did you use such an affectionate gaze and looked at me?”
Of course, Yang Dingtian didn’t die.
Because the poison that was moistened on the dagger was called the Icebound Soul Attraction, it was a kind of extremely weird poison that was extracted out from an ice attribute demonic beast body from the ocean. Once it entered a person’s blood, anyone would immediately lose their life. Only Yang Dingtian’s Nine Yang Mystic Meridians were an exception. Furthermore, Qin Mengli had the antidote for it. Furthermore, Yang Dingtian even saw the antidote being placed inside that transparent jade case.
Yang Dingtian was gambling with his life.
During that point in time, Qin Mengli’s determination to kill him was just way too huge. He had to place himself at the death door before he can survive.
Furthermore, only by doing so, would he be able to enter the depths of Qin Mengli’s heart and become someone of importance. Only then could he possibly enter the upper echelon of Qin City and obtain the other half of Heaven and Earth Mystic Flame map’s secret.
Now, his gamble of placing himself at the death door had succeeded.
****************************************
Yang Dingtian, who had woken up, didn’t reveal any signs of joy as he looked at Qin Mengli’s beautiful face. His gaze immediately turned complex. Subsequently, he inhaled a deep breath of air.
Qin Mengli stretched out her jade hands and caressed the wound on Yang Dingtian’s neck gently as she inquired, “Shen Lang, tell me, why?”
“Originally, I wanted to agree to your order and bring our relationship a step closer.” Yang Dingtian replied, “And I even looked forward to it!”
Qin Mengli smiled coldly, “Didn’t you find me filthy? And even detest me for being a woman with loose morals?”
Yang Dingtian nodded, “That’s right. But if this were just an act, such woman would be filled with fatal attraction instead.”
“Then what caused you to change your decision to refuse me?” Qin Mengli replied.
Yang Dingtian continued, “Because I discovered the plum blossom birthmark at the side of your waist.”
Qin Mengli commented, “What about it?”
Yang Dingtian’s face trembled and spoke, “Because, I recognized you. I recognized that you are that Sister Meng. The dream lover that caused me to be captivated and the woman who had been the support for me to live on till now. The... the woman I had been trying to find for my whole life. However, never did I expect the purest and kindhearted woman in my heart would become like this!”
(TL Note: Meng = Dream.)
When those words were spoken, Qin Mengli suddenly trembled.
Yang Dingtian’s gaze sunk back into his memories and infatuation as he said, “Perhaps, you had forgotten. Twenty years ago, I was only nine years old while you had already grown up. I saw you while you were showering in the hot spring inside the Ice Sealed Valley. Subsequently, you released the dogs to bite me... From then on, your appearance had always been imprinted inside my mind. I had gradually forgotten your face, and the only deep impression I had was the plum blossom birthmark at the corner of your waist.”
Qin Mengli recalled that after Shen Lang had seen the plum blossom birthmark on her waist, his complexion had indeed changed.
Immediately after, she had also sunk back into her memories as she tried her best to recall the incident.
Subsequently, a boy appeared within her memories. He was filled with curiosity, passion, confusion as well as possessing two big pure eyes.
“You, you are Ren Tianhan?” Qin Mengli inquired in shock.
Yang Dingtian nodded his head. Following after, his face sunk into agony.
Of course, Yang Dingtian wasn’t Ren Tianhan. However, this person existed, and he was the son of Ice Sealed Valley Master!
No one knew as to whether Ren Tianhan had peeked at Qin Mengli during her shower, or Qin Mengli had long forgotten about it as well. However, the hot spring in Ice Sealed Valley was very renowned. It was especially helpful for women’s skin and beauty. Therefore, any woman that had been to the Ice Sealed Valley would definitely shower in the hot spring, and Qin Mengli was not an exception.
The only memory Qin Mengli had of Ren Tianhan was that she and her brother, Qin Wanchou had saved his life under someone else’s knife!
During then, a treasure appeared in Ice Sealed Valley, and a ninth-grade ice attribute mystic skill scroll was scooped out from it. All the huge factions around the world flocked over, including Dongfang Niemie. There was also the during then when Qin Wanchou was Qin City’s Young Lord, and Qin Mengli had followed along to make things livelier.
Dongfang Niemie had merely stayed for half a day before leaving because he didn’t have much greed towards the scroll.
However, when Dongfang Niemie left, Ice Sealed Valley suffered from a massacre, and everyone had been killed. Meanwhile, that ninth-grade ice attribute mystic skill scroll had also disappeared without a trace. Up till now, no one knew where it went.
During that point of time, Young Lord Ren Tianhan was the only person that escaped. He got carried by a loyal servant and escaped out from the Ice Sealed Valley.
But the enemies had caught up to them very quickly. Just when Dongfang Niemie was about to make his move, Qin Wanchou and Qin Mengli came before him and saved the-then nine years old Ren Tianhan from the enemies’ pursuit. During that point in time, Qin Mengli was still very kindhearted and pure.
After that, Ren Tianhan followed the loyal servant and left. No one knew where they went.
In order to move Qin Mengli, Yang Dingtian had been interacting with his master and got his master to tell him everything related to Qin Mengli. However, the interaction between Dongfang Niemie and Qin Mengli was just way too little. No matter how much he thought, only this event could come into his mind.
Therefore, Yang Dingtian decided to impersonate Ren Tianhan and used it to move Qin Mengli’s heart completely.
Qin Mengli might be a woman with loose morals, but that was because she had suffered from a terrifying wound dozen of years ago. She still looked forward to pure love within the depth of her heart.
And what Ren Tianhan could give her was pure and perfect love. So much that Yang Dingtian could even use his death to act out this play.
Therefore, they no longer would contain any loopholes!
Sure enough, Qin Mengli stared at Yang Dingtian’s eyes. She felt that it was getting more and more similar to the boy in her memories!
Subsequently, her gaze gradually turned gentle and intoxicated!
Indeed, she really lacked love. She yearned for love within the depths of her heart.
However, she, who had a bad reputation, possessed terrifying wealth and power. Furthermore, she had always submerged herself in darkness.
Therefore, she didn’t dare to have hope in love.
Now, there was an unconditional pure love placed in front of her.
She crumbled and collapsed instantly!
At the next moment, she suddenly embraced Yang Dingtian. Subsequently, endless happiness and joy emerged within her heart.
It was as if sunlight had shone into the darkness of her heart.
The darkness and filthiness within it were being disintegrated rapidly!
