"Aunt, seeking death so resolutely is easy, but at least listen to what others have to say first."
Baili An picked up a relatively larger piece of copper mirror shard from the ground and raised it in front of the Princess, smiling slightly:
"We corpse demons can be described as a single-minded race, not fond of fragntation.
The eyes are either all black or all red, never half-red and half-black from bloodsucking.
Now, you dear aunt, cannot be considered a true corpse demon, at most... perhaps a half-demon."
The Princess was taken aback, then imdiately grabbed the piece of copper mirror from Baili An’s hand, eyes filled with excitent: "What do you an by that?!"
Baili An glanced upward, resting his arm to take the Qing Tuan Guo pastries placed on the table:
"The condition of obtaining descendants through the bestowed covenant requires first draining the other’s blood completely, lose all life, and then feed back one’s own blood to them. Corpse demon, corpse demon, only by first becoming a corpse can one beco a demon, since you haven’t died, you are not a corpse."
He took the Princess’s hand, placing it against her own cheek, continuing, "The blood in you is alive, its temperature just slightly lower than usual, but certainly not at a corpse’s temperature.
Even though we perford the covenant ceremony, you cannot truly be counted as a corpse demon, if you don’t believe ..."
Speaking this, Baili An fed the Qing Tuan Guo into her mouth: "Taste this pastry, if I’m not mistaken, you should be able to discern the five flavors."
The sweet, sticky, and fragrant texture of the Qing Tuan Guo spread across her tongue.
The Princess’s eyes brightened, slowly picking up hope.
Baili An continued: "However, you may find yourself fearing sunlight in the future, sumr could be quite uncomfortable, and so minor traits of the corpse demon will remain in you, but with your abilities, I reckon hiding these oddities shouldn’t pose a difficulty."
Unexpectedly, there was a twist in the plot, a gleam of hope amid darkness.
The Princess lowered her gaze, realizing her mouth still held the Qing Tuan Guo he had fed her, her expression slightly unnatural.
She snatched it away, stepping back a little, nibbling at the sweet glutinous pastry, but no longer seeking death.
She snorted coldly: "Aunt? Since when did I allow you to call that?"
Baili Yu is a royal kin, she is the Princess of the Country of Qin, and if truly speaking of relational status, she and Baili Yu are cousins, during childhood, she even used to call Baili Yu cousin for a few years.
This "aunt" from Baili An, seeming humble, is actually not misplaced.
But now the Princess finds every aspect of Baili An utterly disagreeable, not waiting for Baili An to respond.
She heavily snorted again, her eyes cold: "Instead of wasting ti chatting here, think about how to escape Bai Tuo Mountain. With the excuse of bathing, I have temporarily sent Baili Yu away tonight.
Tomorrow, you won’t be so lucky. Since he has caught your scent nearby, he certainly won’t spare searching this place."
This Jinwu Jing Shen God Array is indeed a huge problem.
Under that fierce divine light, Baili An would surely have his flesh and blood disintegrated if he exits the house, making each step laborious, to speak nothing of proceeding to Heavenly Mountain.
"When will this Jinwu Jing Shen God Array end?"
The Princess saw through his thoughts, coldly smiling: "Once this array is activated, it entirely depends on the Sword Master’s will. If he does not close the array, no one can. After all, this is the ancient Divine Array left by Immortal Venerable Zhu Zhan, unless a Venerable Immortal personally visits this mountain with the power to dispel this array, but do you think Venerable Immortals are as common as radishes in the field, one pit one of them? At present, throughout the Six Realms, there are only four Venerable Immortals."
