Jiang Chen threw over his iron sword and it hit the ground.
âTake your own life,â Jiang Chen said.
Chu Luo was shocked. She couldnât understand why Jiang Chen even wanted to kill her at that point. She stopped roaring and begged him, âAnyway, it was thanks to me that you could kill Elder Tree and Gao Chenyi. Why do you want me to die? Canât you just let me go?â
âNo.â
Jiang Chen shook his head and said coldly, âWhen I find the exit, Iâll definitely leave it open so that others can escape. If I let you go now, that means Iâm allowing you to live.â
âI⊠Iâll give my sword to you. What do you think?â The arrogance on Chu Luoâs face had disappeared. She was almost crying.
âWhen you die, Iâll take the sword, naturally,â Jiang Chen said.
The female disciples of the Isle of Sky understood what Jiang Chen meant. They knew as long as Chu Luo was alive, he wouldnât lead them out.
âApprentice sister, please sacrifice yourself for us.â
âYeah. After all, youâre our apprentice sister. If you take your own life, you can help us.â
âYouâre just getting what you deserve.â
They kept persuading her. Chu Luo was chilled by these words, becoming more angry and frightened.
âIâll give you my virginity, anytime, anywhere. Iâm a beauty on the Beauty List.â
Chu Luo didnât have time to argue with her unmerciful apprentice sisters. She expressed her disdain to Jiang Chen. âShame on you!â
Wen Xin was even more irritated than Jiang Chen when she heard this. The killing intent in her eyes surged, but suddenly, something occurred to her. She whispered into Jiang Chenâs ear, âIf you want to kill, you canât just kill her. Otherwise youâd better not do it at all.â
âWhy is that?â
âSheâs a key disciple of the Isle of Sky. If you kill her, it will look disfavorable for you no matter whether itâs the right or wrong thing to do. Others could use it against you. Donât forget that youâre going to compete for the leadership of the Natural Law School with Ning Haotian.â
âNing Haotian has launched a drum-up campaign for the election of the schoolâs leader, while youâve been killing disciples of top ten sects and schoolsâŠ
âSo youâd better kill them all and make Gao Chenyi the scapegoat.â
Jiang Chenâs expression was unreadable when he heard what Wen Xin said. She had thought everything through for him, which he appreciated a lot. However, her suggestion sounded too dark and bloody.
âI have my own standards for who to kill, and I wonât change this standard under any circumstances. Chu Luo deserves to die. Her apprentice sisters donât. Besides, if we do it your way, wonât I have to kill Fang Ping and his companions, too?â Jiang Chen asked.
âSo youâll only kill Chu Luo?â Wen Xin frowned upon hearing what he said. She wasnât following him.
âWhat you said makes sense. I have my principles, but Iâm not pedantic.â
âSo? What are you going to do?â Wen Xin said impatiently.
Jiang Chen didnât answer her. He looked over to Fang Ping and his companions and said to them, âWait for me ahead.â
âOkay.â
Fang Ping and his companions werenât fools. They left the Guardian Palace quickly.
âYou can live, but you have to follow me and call me master,â Jiang Chen came up to Chu Luo and said something unexpected.
Chu Luo blinked and called with uncertainty, âMaster?â
âDo you think Iâm such a fool that I only want you to call me that one time?â
Jiang Chen smiled and said, âIâll establish my masterhood over you through secret methods. From now on, youâll always be loyal to me. No betrayal is allowed. You guys, too.â
He turned to the other three female disciples of the Isle of Sky.
They looked at each other and nodded.
âGreat,â Jiang Chen nodded with satisfaction.
âDo you really want to control them by some secret method? Will it even work? What if they lift it after returning to their sect?â Wen Xin was worried.
âNo one can crack my method. Itâs far more powerful than you think. I didnât actually want to use it, since death is a mercy compared to it.â
Jiang Chen smiled mysteriously. He cut his palm with his sword and clenched his fists. Then, he started to cast a mysterious spell on them.
Soon his fists were emitting a brilliant golden light. The dripping blood also turned golden.
âKneel down,â Jiang Chen said to the female disciples of the Isle of Sky. âRecognize me as your master. You will be conscious and keep your self-awareness.â
Then he walked towards Chu Luo and said to her, âIf you are not 100% willing to recognize me in the process, there will be severe consequences. Are you with me?â
At first she hesitated, but at the thought of her current situation, she nodded immediately.
âOpen your mouth.â
Jiang Chen extended his hand over her face, letting his blood drip into her mouth. At the same time he said, âRepeat after me.â
âOkay.â
Meng Hao and Wen Xin were shocked by this creepy scene.
Chu Luo repeated what Jiang Chen had said. A strange image appeared on her fair neck, but soon disappeared.
âItâs done?â Chu Luo asked puzzledly.
âYes.â
The female disciples eased up when they saw Chu Luo still had her free will to ask questions. If Jiang Chen had intended to turn them into puppets, they would rather have died.
Soon, the three disciples also repeated Jiang Chenâs words and finished the process. His glowing fists went back to normal.
When Jiang Chen was binding up the wound in his palms, Wen Xin was observing Chu Luo and the other three. She didnât see any difference in them. She asked confusedly, âWhy do they still look the same?â
âTry asking them something,â Jiang Chen said.
Wen Xin went up to Chu Luo with her sword in hand, and shouted at her, âWho killed Elder Tree?â
Wen Xin was surprised by what she saw next. Chu Luo gave an odd expression. Her eyes were stern. Then she jumped on Wen Xin decisively.
âWhatâŠâ Wen Xin was scared by her crazy actions.
âStop,â Jiang Chen shouted at her. Chu Luo stopped being aggressive immediately, standing where she was.
âThey donât look any different, but theyâll put my wellbeing first whenever something concerns me. If they hear anything unfavorable to their master, theyâll react like that.â
After explaining, Jiang Chen looked over to Chu Luo and the other three and said, âTake your clothes off.â
Meng Hao opened his eyes wide when he heard Jiang Chenâs order. He saw the four beauties take off their outerwear without any hesitation.
âFine. Now get dressed.â
To his disappointment, Meng Hao had hardly seen anything arousing when Jiang Chen gave another order.
Wen Xin was dumbfounded. Jiang Chen came up to Chu Luo and said, âNow, what should you call me?â
âMaster!â the four women shouted without hesitation. Chu Luo was even showing regret. She knelt down and cried, âIâve done bad things to master. Please forgive me.â
Then she kissed his boots.
âI forgive you,â Jiang Chen said.
âThank you, master.â Chu Luo was so touched that she kept crying. Then she stood up.
âWhat kind of evil method is this?!â Wen Xin cursed and stared at Jiang Chen. She said, âDoes that mean theyâll do whatever you order them to do, including sleeping with you?â
âTheoretically, yes. But I havenât tested that,â Jiang Chen smiled.
Wen Xin took a deep breath and said slowly, âIf you ever dare to use this method on me, I wonât forgive you even after Iâm dead!â
