WHAT! I Have To Kill Heaven's Son To Live!-Chapter 194: Saving Xu Liang (3)

"W-What?! Really? You have... an anti-aphrodisiac pill?" Xu Liang asked, her voice strained with pain as she sat on the ground, trembling slightly.

"Yes, I do," Reon replied calmly. "And I’ll give it to you. But I have three conditions. Well, two main ones, actually."

"Three... conditions?" she echoed, blinking through her discomfort. "And what might those be?"

Reon raised a finger.

"First of all, you have to swear that you won’t kill or harm me once you recover. No, not just a promise—I want a Dao Heart Oath. That one’s non-negotiable."

Xu Liang frowned in confusion. "Huh? Why would I want to kill or hurt you?"

Reon didn’t answer aloud, but a troubled thought stirred in his mind.

’She probably doesn’t remember it yet, but in that heat-filled moment... she kissed me. And I’m willing to bet that was her first kiss.’

’Once she remembers... she’s going to be furious. Even if she doesn’t kill me, I’ll likely be beaten half to death. Better safe than sorry.’

"So?" he asked, raising an eyebrow. "Will you do it?"

Xu Liang gave a weak sigh. "Fine. That’s not a big deal."

Reon nodded and continued, "Second, I want the secret sword technique you got from your inheritance. You’re not a sword cultivator, right? So you probably don’t need it anyway."

Xu Liang’s eyes narrowed.

"Wait... I do have a secret sword technique among the many I received from the inheritance—but how do you know that? No, more importantly—how do you even know I have an inheritance in the first place?"

Reon gave a mysterious smile.

"Let’s just say... I know a few things. That’s not the important part right now. Will you give it to me or not?"

Secret Techniques were different from ordinary techniques.

Unlike widely practiced arts, these were crafted through a cultivator’s personal insights—tailored to their preferences and often born from years of struggle, inspiration, and breakthroughs.

They were not just techniques, but answers to problems others could not solve.

The secret sword technique Xu Liang had received was known as—

Nine Yang Sword Technique.

An exceptionally powerful art, it combined grace and ferocity in perfect harmony.

Its fluid movements could overwhelm opponents like flowing water, while its destructive bursts carried the might to rival even High-Tier Epic-Grade techniques.

’In the novel, since Xu Liang wasn’t a sword cultivator, she handed that technique over to Yang Lie, which made him ridiculously powerful.’

’But this time... I’m going to steal that opportunity.’

"Alright," Xu Liang said calmly. "I have no use for that technique anyway."

Reon gave her a satisfied nod. "Thanks. Now for the third—and most important—condition..."

He leaned in slightly and explained it in a quiet, serious tone.

Xu Liang’s eyes widened in disbelief. "W-What?! Are you serious? Is that... really true?"

"Yes," Reon replied, his voice firm. "And I need your help."

She stared at him for a moment, then nodded, her expression turning cold and resolute.

"Alright. If that’s truly the case, I’ll do everything I can to help."

"Thanks... for agreeing to all of my conditions," Reon said with genuine appreciation.

Without hesitation, Xu Liang raised her hand and took a Dao Heart Oath, swearing that once she recovered, she would not harm or kill Reon under any circumstance.

Without delay, she then transferred the Nine Yang Sword Technique directly into Reon’s mind.

’Oh... I can feel it—the knowledge of the sword technique has been etched into my mind, just like when I used the Technique Insight Ticket. Though... it’s not quite the same,’ Reon thought.

’The Technique Insight Ticket imprints the essence of a technique into the mind, offering a portion of its comprehension—limited by what the brain can endure.’ freeweɓnovēl.coɱ

’But Xu Liang... she simply passed on the raw knowledge. The comprehension this time rests entirely on me.’

With a calm breath, Reon extended his hand, revealing the Clearheart Tranquility Pill resting gently in his palm.

"Here. Take it," he said, offering it to her.

Xu Liang reached out and took the pill. The moment it touched her hand, her eyes widened in shock.

"This is..."

Her thoughts churned as she stared at the pill.

’A Mid-Tier Grade-5 Clearheart Tranquility Pill? How did someone like him—someone at the Peak of Qi Solidification—get his hands on something so rare?’

’Even basic detoxification pills are considered valuable. But this... this pill can neutralize nearly any poison beneath Grade-6.’

’It’s the kind of treasure that even a Great Elder of the Supreme Dao Sect would covet.’

She slowly lifted her gaze and looked at Reon.

’This man... he’s definitely not as simple as he appears.’

Without hesitation, Xu Liang swallowed the pill and immediately sat down, entering a meditative state to neutralize the aphrodisiac within her and purify it from her body.

Meanwhile, Reon lit the bamboo lamp and sat beside her quietly, the warm glow flickering over the walls as he watched over her.

His thoughts drifted.

’At first, I thought this pill was useless to me. My constitution can absorb and neutralize any poison anyway.’

’But then she came to mind... and now, I can use that pill to steal Yang Lie’s opportunity.’

He smiled faintly to himself as he watched her cultivation aura stabilize.

Soon after, Reon stepped out through the doorway, now dressed in a fresh set of clothes.

Waiting just outside, Mei Lin rushed to him the moment she saw him and threw her arms around him in a tight hug.

"W-What happened, Brother Xue? I heard strange noises from inside... I was so scared!"

Reon gently patted her head, his voice calm and reassuring.

"It’s alright now, Mei Lin. Everything’s fine. There’s nothing to be afraid of anymore."

Mei Lin relaxed slightly at his words, then looked up at him curiously.

"But... why is Brother Xue wearing different clothes now?"

Reon let out a soft, awkward chuckle, scratching his cheek.

"Ah, that... something unexpected happened. Nothing you need to worry about."

"Thank goodness..." Mei Lin breathed a sigh of relief.

Then, she looked around and asked, "Where’s the person you saved, Brother Xue?"

"She’ll be out in about an hour," Reon replied. "Let’s wait for her here."

"Okay!" Mei Lin nodded with a bright smile.

Then—

Ding!

A crisp system notification echoed in Reon’s mind.
