I Have a Date with a Thousand-year-old Female Corpse-Chapter 1427 - 1428: To Kill You, All It Takes Is Just One Glance

Chapter 1427: Chapter 1428: To Kill You, All It Takes Is Just One Glance

You looked intently at the two of them, swiftly sealing off all their auras. If either of them made any suspicious move, you would immediately strike.

The Saintess remained calm and composed, her smile gentle: "Chairman Li, you and the Empress have a bond spanning a millennium; what do you intend to do this time?"

The Saintess’s words made you laugh involuntarily: "Funny, you’re the ones who are causing trouble, yet you’re biting back at me. Why ask me what I plan to do, when I should be asking what exactly you’re up to?"

"Me? I only have one purpose."

"Speak."

This sentence from the Saintess piqued your vigilance. If she said her purpose was to kill you, you would instantly activate the Heavenly Stamp and eliminate her!

As for rescuing the Empress, that’s a matter for later. The Empress is at least a Demi-god Body; her Three Souls and Seven Spirits have long been fused with the Goddess and cannot be harmed by ordinary means.

"But I won’t tell you because it has nothing to do with you."

The Saintess’s words made you feel like you were punching soft cotton despite being ready for action.

"Then what do you mean?" I spoke with a hint of exasperation.

"Nothing much, just wanted to divert some of your time and energy, and that of the people around you."

"The people around me?" You couldn’t help but furrow your brow, "What do you mean by that?"

The Saintess took two steps forward, smiling: "I’ll be frank with you today. The person beside me and I are working on something that isn’t largely related to you all, but once you become aware of it, you would certainly attempt to stop us. Therefore, it’s essential to divert your attention and that of the people around you."

"So, was the game earlier also orchestrated by you?"

Your temper flared up, glaring at the two, ready to start swinging at any disagreement.

"I can’t deny that. But haven’t you noticed that it’s been quite beneficial for you?"

The Saintess’s words made you pause: "What do you mean?"

"Initially, I planned to trap you forever in the scheme I set. Unfortunately, your innate ability is too strong, and I’ve discovered no matter how I design it, you can escape safely."

"Bullshit, I don’t know how many times I’ve almost been killed by you all."

"It would be better if it did kill; it would save me the effort." Seeing your inclination to act, the Saintess hurriedly gave a wry smile, "Also, haven’t you noticed that each time you’re in danger, your relationship with your six Princess Consorts grows increasingly better? Such experiences can never be obtained in life."

You felt there was some truth, but quickly shook your head again: "You’re mixing things up; who would risk their lives for leisure?"

Wu Qiyi, who had remained silent, slowly rose and walked elegantly beside you, addressing the Saintess: "If I’m not mistaken, you’re planning to use my husband, under the guise of rescuing the Empress, to entrap him into reincarnation once again, aren’t you?"

"Her Highness the Empress indeed thinks deeply. However, it’s not just Chairman Li; all those who care about him and whom he cares for are involved."

Wu Qiyi furrowed her brows: "Why drag so many people in? What exactly are you trying to achieve?"

The Saintess smiled: "Your lives have become too mundane, unable to stir any more waves. Reliving life would be quite interesting, wouldn’t it?"

Wu Qiyi’s gaze slightly softened, and she gave a faint smile: "To be honest, I’m still quite curious about your real purpose."

The Saintess replied: "Someday, you will know."

As she spoke, the Saintess retrieved two small round mirrors from her bosom. With a gentle toss, the two mirrors floated lightly into your hands.

"The Empress is already under our control. If you wish to save her, follow my instructions hereafter."

You let out a cold snort and said: "Saintess, haven’t you become confused from using too many conspiracies? Don’t you know that with my current abilities, all it takes is a mere glance to kill you?"

The Saintess Zixin chuckled: "I’m well aware of that. But Chairman Li, do you think you, who are unfamiliar with the Power of Reincarnation, can rescue the Empress stranded in the Abyssal Reincarnation?"

Indeed, the Saintess was correct. Although from the same sect and both comprehended the Path of Heavenly Power, what Liu Dao understands is reincarnation power, fundamentally distinct from the Heavenly Stamp. Being in different fields poses barriers; your understanding of reincarnation power is truly lacking.

Seeing you silent, the Saintess smiled and said: "Relax, I bear no grudge against you, and I’ve made it clear earlier, I don’t intend nor claim I can kill you. Everything I do is for one purpose, which has absolutely no relation to you or those around you."

You slowly nodded, sighed, "Fine. By the way, how can I save the Empress’s soul from the Whirlpool of Reincarnation?"

"The specific method will be known only after entering reincarnation. Additionally, the mirrors will be sent to each of your hands by tonight; hope you enjoy it."

After saying this, the Saintess and the shadow gradually faded into the air and disappeared.

Wu Qiyi turned to you and asked, "Yun, what does this mirror mean?"

"If my guess is correct, that shadow woman likely infused these small mirrors with the Power of Six Paths of Reincarnation. She doesn’t possess true Six Paths Eyes; perhaps she borrowed some special item, and this item is likely something personal to Liu Dao."

Upon hearing this, Wu Qiyi couldn’t help but ask, "So, that woman is associated with Liu Dao?"

"Quite possibly. In the memories Wu Dao left me, Liu Dao is someone indifferent, uninterested in fame, and not very keen on cultivation and deification. Thus, he has few followers; only one personal maid is known."

"What’s her name?" Wu Qiyi inquired.

You shook your head: "I don’t know. I’m not quite certain, only that she’s not human, but a demon."

Wu Qiuyue bowed deeply to you and Wu Qiyi, then turned and departed; the Empress’s physical body is now controlled by the Saintess, she must return to her side no matter what.

You immediately called those important to you, inquiring whether they had received a mirror.

Except for your parents, Xiao Feng, Zong Wangyue, Yang Kai, and Wei Shuxian all received one. The only exception is Little Qinniang; she’s still in school, busy burning piles of love letters and kicking some madly pursuing wealthy young nobles.

Previously, having suffered from Li Zichen’s Infinite Reincarnation maneuver, you remain apprehensive about the Power of Reincarnation. To be frank, among the four brothers, the one you fear most is Little Junior Brother Liu Dao.
