Beneficial Union: Chasing A Rogue Wife

Chapter 443: Do or Die

"Eh?" Sung Zhi Ruo was dumbfounded, her concentration almost slipping. There is a big difference in declaring, 'I can do it alone' compared with someone else telling, 'you will do it alone' after all.

Her confidence plummeted suddenly, which also showed on her face as she looked at the biggest mirror near her with anxiousness.

Though she cannot blame Gao Lan Mei or the rest to let her refine the Soul Eater without any help and them sounding so uncaring about it, this still made her feel that they are really giving up on her.

'So what about it? This is for the better.' Sung Zhi Ruo thought to herself bitterly. She is currently on a do or die situation.

However, it does not matter as she volunteered for it as atonement for her clan's own protection treasure being on rampage earlier.

If she is not successful, might as well not return as there is no face left for her. For Sung Zhi Ruo, she might as well die trying.

Even with the determination, Sung Zhi Ruo still looks anxious as, her lips thinned as she looked at Gao Lan Mei, before giving the other a stiff nod.

Sung Zhi Ruo started concentrated her spiritual energy on her hands before lifted them up across the Soul Eater since no one can just touch the Soul Eater directly as it will suck anyone's soul immediately.

How the YinYing did it earlier, they do not have any idea. Sung Zhi Ruo only knows that they can use the forbidden and uncontrollable power to save themselves.

Sung Zhi Ruo decided to gamble using luck as she continued condensing her spiritual energy, with the intention to use her own aura to entice the guardian of the treasure to go out and be lured outside its hiding place.

During this process, she knows it would be very dangerous. Since Gao Lan Mei did not stop Sung Zhi Ruo it only means that the advantage on refining the Soul Eater weights more than the danger.

The chaos as well outside as well as the Shizi Empire is still ongoing but no one bothered Sung Zhi Ruo as they watch her try to take control the Soul Eater.

Some even though that they are wasting their time. How can they even compare a mere Immortal cultivator to a wraith? They are all expecting for Sung Zhi Ruo to die soon.

They are also confused to why Gao Lan Mei is too trusting to the Sung Miss, despite them knowing that the Sung clan is not supposed to be trusted.

Yes, all of them are mostly saved by the Sung Family treasure, but it does not mean they will just blindly believe everything the woman claims.

It did not take long as haze started going out from the Soul Eater towards Sung Zhi Ruo's hands. However, she did not rejoice as the aura coming out from the forbidden treasure is mediocre that is almost unseen through a mortal's naked eyes.

"That will take a while. You can use this." Gao Lan Mei murmured, then the shards of the mirror around Sung Zhi Ruo and Xiao Shi spun faster. The tiny pieces continued to move together closing its shards to form a smaller space until it stopped above Xiao Shi stomach.

It spun so more, and then finally stopping and dispersing suddenly, leaving a silver flower that is as large as a mortal palm. It has seven silver petals with sharp edges that make anyone feel anxious about touching. The silver flower also emits strong spiritual energy.

Sung Zhi Ruo immediately felt that the silver flower is Cuojue guardian spirit's main form. The reaction of the Soul Eater is immediate and the rest even felt the suppressing the energy inside the space.

Initially, she did not really expect for Gao Lan Mei to really use the guardian spirit as a sacrifice. A divine treasure for a forbidden treasure. How will the elders of the Sung family react? They probably will pull their hair out of frustration or shout at her until they spit blood.

Sung Zhi Ruo smirked before going back to immediately strengthens her concentration to also make sure that Gao Lan Mei's effort will not be wasted.

While Sung Zhi Ruo is trying to refine the Soul Eater, the space inside the Cuojue Mirror continued to fell apart silently and no one aside from Gao Lan Mei knows the exact reason why.

'I should tell them' Gao Lan Mei sadly thought to herself. She is not comfortable to tell anyone her personal weakness, but she also knows that it is for the best that the others know it.

Gao Lan Mei is still thinking deeply when Yen Mingjue asked her. "Are you really going to use Cuojue as an exchange?" He said softly. "You are not right? Tell me. Tell me the truth."

The moment the flower Cuojue appeared almost next to the Soul Eater, the haze surrounding it intensified, showing the clear intent of the forbidden weapon to eat up the guardian spirit.

Gao Lan Mei continued to stare at refining process that Sung Zhi Ruo is desperately trying to finish before asking instead, "Are you complaining? You do not want us to save Xiao Shi?"

With a snort, "You know that is not what I mean." Yes, there is more gain than loss if their plan is a success. That is 'if' since the moment it failed, they lose everything.

At least for Cuojue, Gao Lan Mei can still control the treasure to cover them until they finally have a way to save themselves.

In truth, Gao Lan Mei is prepared to hide Cuojue as soon as the situation looks dire.

Instead of telling Yen Mingjue that, Gao Lan Mei replied, "Something is wrong. Since the time the black smoke outside appeared, I already felt unsettled. Even my purification barrier is up, that feeling is still there." She said softly.
