How I Pampered the Tyrant Into Devotion With My Space-Chapter 512: One of Them Must Die

Xinyue finally released Pei Shu’er, feeling a rare tinge of guilt.

It really seemed to have been a misunderstanding with Zishan.

"This time, for informing Master of such an important matter, Master will thank you later."

Pei Shu’er naturally knew that whatever Xinyue was bringing out was no ordinary item.

Xinyue turned her gaze to Lin Shiyao, who lay unconscious on the ground.

She walked over to Lin Shiyao, then opened her palm towards her, drawing Lin Shiyao up to her hand.

She pressed open her jaw and fed her a pill.

Lin Shiyao’s complexion turned ghastly in an instant, and the unbearable pain in her abdomen forcibly woke her up.

The first thing Lin Shiyao saw was Xinyue’s bruised and swollen face, causing a scream to catch in her throat.

She didn’t know what had happened.

Then she turned her gaze to Pei Shu’er, and seeing the smile on her so-called Senior Sister’s lips, she understood everything.

"Master, did Senior Sister say something bad about me to you?"

Xinyue didn’t speak, and Lin Shiyao felt uneasy inside, partly believing Zishan couldn’t possibly know about matters related to Wuyue.

Yet seeing the murderous look in Xinyue’s eyes, she felt a bit guilty.

"Master, Senior Sister’s words are not to be trusted. She must be envious of how you value me."

Xinyue said, "Tell me the truth now, did you kill Wuyue?"

Lin Shiyao’s heart skipped a beat; it was indeed the case.

She started crying instantly.

"Master, when Aunt Wuyue died, she entrusted her Jade Pendant to me, instructing me to find you. If I hadn’t received Aunt’s directions, how else would I have known where you were."

Though Lin Shiyao appeared to speak, she actually said nothing.

Xinyue lost her patience and immediately tightened her grip on Lin Shiyao’s neck. Lin Shiyao felt she could hardly breathe.

"Answer my question."

Lin Shiyao cried while thinking of a plan in her mind, her eyes suddenly lit up.

"Master, the truth is a woman named Pei Shu’er killed Aunt. That woman is ruthless yet hides behind a facade of righteousness."

Pei Shu’er: "..."

She was speechless. She wouldn’t have known such a massive misunderstanding would fall upon her like this if she hadn’t been here.

She looked displeased and turned her gaze to Xinyue.

"Master, I discovered Junior Sister is immune to poisons. Perhaps the poison you fed her wasn’t potent enough, so Junior Sister can still deny."

Lin Shiyao stared wide-eyed at "Zishan," suddenly feeling that the usually kind Zishan wasn’t so good either.

Xinyue suddenly remembered that point, and immediately fed Lin Shiyao three more pills.

Now it was four times the pain.

Lin Shiyao writhed in agony on the ground, pain making her almost delirious.

Xinyue had no intention of letting Lin Shiyao off, her voice icy.

"Tell me now, did you kill Wuyue?"

Lin Shiyao, both in pain and confusion, eventually nodded vaguely.

"I did kill her, but she was trying to kill me. I poisoned her food, and when she was dying, I struck the final blow."

As soon as she spoke, Xinyue immediately lifted her knife, stabbing it down towards Lin Shiyao.

Pei Shu’er felt a bit expectant, wanting to see if the book’s benevolent master to Lin Shiyao could truly kill her.

Yet when the stab came down, Lin Shiyao instinctively rolled forward, narrowly dodging the attack.

Pei Shu’er was amazed; even in such pain, she still unleashed such potential.

No wonder she’s the protagonist.

Lin Shiyao struggled to get up, and Xinyue spat out another mouthful of blood.

Lin Shiyao was overjoyed, quickly moving to leave, only to be blocked by Pei Shu’er.

Pei Shu’er gazed with a hint of coldness, smiling as she spoke.

"Why rush? After killing Aunt, you think you can just leave? Besides, weren’t you just trying to snatch my Poisonous Insect Technique?"

Hatred surged in Lin Shiyao’s eyes, immediately launching a Poison Dart at Pei Shu’er.

Pei Shu’er dodged and slapped Lin Shiyao to the ground.

As Lin Shiyao attempted to retaliate, Pei Shu’er delivered a chopping blow that knocked the already collapsing Lin Shiyao unconscious.

Lin Shiyao was completely knocked out, then Pei Shu’er bound her with ropes, dragging her like a dead dog next to Xinyue.

Xinyue, due to her intense emotions, spat out another mouthful of blood, looking at Pei Shu’er with a hint of coldness in her gaze.

"Did you already know?"

Pei Shu’er dared not admit it, her face showing innocence mixed with a bit of grievance.

"Master, no, I only just found out; otherwise, how could I have let her learn the arts here."

Xinyue’s icy gaze shifted away from Pei Shu’er, allowing her to finally breathe a sigh of relief.

She felt like she’d just walked a round through the gates of hell.

No choice, a minor character has no rights. Either fate wants to kill her, or the people around her want to kill her.

Lin Shiyao woke up already at night, seeing a person in front of her enveloped in red aura.

She knew that was fortune.

The terrifying thing was this fortune was linked to her with a thread.

And the red mist surrounding her was drifting little by little towards the person in front.

Her own mist began to fade slowly.

Her heart skipped a beat, trying to pull her red thread with her hands only to find herself bound hand and foot.

Moreover, the scene before her became clearer by degrees.

Once clear, she realized that person was her dear Senior Sister Zishan, with the red aura now gone.

Lin Shiyao’s look towards Zishan changed immediately.

Earlier, she merely sought to compete with Zishan for Master’s Poisonous Insect Technique.

But now, she knew she was contending with Zishan for the fortune on her.

She was seeing such a situation for the first time. Typically, a person’s fortune may fade but not transfer to someone else.

Yet the occurrence of this proved without a doubt, one between her and Zishan must die.

She naturally hoped it’d be Zishan dying.

Previously, she couldn’t quite explain why she could never gain advantage being with Zishan; it turns out the reason lay here.

Zishan was spontaneously absorbing her fortune!

Thankfully, thankfully today is a full moon.

Otherwise, she would’ve likely let this enemy entangled with her fortune escape.

Even now captured, she felt no worry.

Her fortune was strong, after all, even the heavens were on her side.

Then turning to see Xinyue looking grim, knowing her confession about killing Wuyue must’ve already been admitted.

She hastily said, "Master, earlier I accidentally killed Aunt Wuyue. I didn’t mean to."

Xinyue wasn’t planning to listen to Lin Shiyao, tossing a bottle of medication to Pei Shu’er.

"This is the medicine for raising Top-grade Puppet Gu, which can also allow Puppet Gu to devour Puppet Gu. After five consecutive devourings, one obtains the strongest Gu King."
