Chapter 51 Flirting With A Sect Master Before He Dies
"Yes, at the age of ten I happened to see you and decided to dedicate my whole life to you!" - Victor uttered each word as if it were filled with deep sadness and loneliness, and his face took on a look of annihilation.
"Reckless-" But her words were suddenly interrupted by Victor, who continued his speech without giving her a chance to speak.
"You are a sect master, a fairy of incomparable beauty and character, admired by myriads of practitioners."
"And I…"
"I am just a regular cultivator. If I'm destined to be near the moon, I want to at least observe it from afar."
After these words Victor was silent, the hall remained in complete silence in which you could hear his heart beating fast. Of course, it was not because of these words he had just spoken as everything he said was complete and utter nonsense that he had made up on the spot, a last resort so to speak. The thoughts of imminent death were surfacing in his mind, so he hoped that with these words she would at least spare his life.
Xue Yan frowned as she was stunned by his words.
'Not destined to be near the moon but to watch it from afar.' It was the first time she had heard such words addressed to her, so for some time she did not know how to reply. Looking at Victor's face, which was filled with sadness, her killing intent diminished a little.
She understood that he wasn't lying and he really liked her, for a while her thoughts went into chaos and she didn't know what to do about the situation. Her cold eyes misted over, but soon they became cold again, remembering Elder Wu's words.
"Alright, if you want to watch me, just die!"
BOOM!
A terrifying pressure suddenly fell on Victor, it was as if the heavens themselves were weighing on him, he spit out a mouthful of blood before collapsing helplessly like a leaf in the wind. His meridians seemed to be completely torn inch by inch, it was an incredible pain that would have made anyone scream and yet Victor remained silent.
Even as his consciousness blurred and it seemed he would fall into an eternal rest at any moment, his thoughts were in chaos.
'What did I do wrong, didn't she change her mind?' Just a moment ago he thought the sect master had changed her mind about killing him and all seemed well, when suddenly she changed her mind and decided to kill.
'Fuck... Reincarnation again.' Lying in his own puddle of blood Victor sighed, awaiting his death once again.
As he suddenly saw the vague outline of the figure of a woman who approached him in slow steps, accompanied by a pleasant fragrance.
'An angel?' Victor thought, thinking that he was already dead.
But, at that moment, a cold voice rang out:
"Any last words?"
Victor wanted to scream "Fuck you, bitch!", but remained silent, the sect master still hadn't killed him, which meant that she had some doubts, because if she wanted to kill him he would have been dead long ago. At that moment, his faded eyes lit up again with hope and thought.
'There's still a chance!'
Victor raised his head sharply attempting to say his last words while staring right at Xue Yan's face.
"If the sect master wants to kill me, just kill me. I won't give up on you even if I have to die, even if I don't have a chance to reincarnate, I'm ready to sacrifice everything for you!" - After these words he once again spat out a mouthful of blood, but this time on purpose, trying to look as tragic and pitiful as possible.
"What about your woman named Mikena? Don't you want to give her a message?" - She asked doubtfully.
As soon as Xue Yan said these words, Victor immediately understood why his plan didn't work. It was all Mikena's fault, because the sect master already knew that he had a woman.
'Fuck!' Victor swore again and remained silent for a while as he himself did not know what to answer. If he admitted that Mikena really was his woman, the outcome could be death, and if he tried to lie it would also be death if the sect master would see through his lies.
"She is not my woman! I only met her a while ago and decided to take care of her and in my mind she was always my little sister. I love only you, there is no woman as beautiful and perfect as you!" - With a righteous tone Victor replied.
He couldn't tell the truth so all that he could do was to lie, because otherwise the outcome would be unknown.
Xue Yan did not expect at all that after his justification he would dare to say such impertinent words so she was confused and unintentionally the pressure on Victor completely disappeared. Even though she was over a thousand years old she had never heard such a description of her personality.
Although there were many rumors about men who were in love with her and even allegedly wanted to marry her, it was all a lie, no one came forward, they wanted to marry not her but the disciples and elders of the sect.
Everyone was afraid of her, and there wasn't a single person who, in all her long life, had ever spoken similar words to Victor. Her hands, which were behind her back, lightly gripped and squeezed the hem of her dress.
The whole world perceived Xue Yan as a cold-blooded killer, an executioner who longed for the world to be completely stained with blood, but no one really knew that she did not desire conflict and those that she had killed so far truly deserved to die.
Only Victor didn't seem to care about that.
Looking at him lying in his own puddle of blood, Xue Yan's heart clenched and she felt sorry for her actions for the first time, because he did nothing to harm her, just confessed his love to her. Biting her lip, she hesitated a little and made a decision.
She walked over to Victor and poked his forehead lightly with her index finger. At that moment all of his torn meridians were completely healed and even the blood on his body disappeared as if it evaporated. It was as if everything that had happened before had been just a dream and he was only now awake.
