137 An easy choice

Sitting upright but not moving out of Linxin's embrace because this was the first time they were touching each other in such close proximity in a long time, Bai Long took his own sweet time to open his eyes despite being awake.

"Oy! I know that you're awake so stop acting!"

"Who's acting? I'm just enjoying the breasts I grew up by suckling on."

"Wha...?!"

If Bai Long's perverted and audacious words were one reason for the surprise Meirong was feeling, another reason was how Linxin was behaving as if she didn't hear those words and continued hugging her son.

What the hell is happening here?

Not thinking too much about whatever weird relationship Bai Long and Linxin had, Meirong decided to focus on the topic that mattered to her.

"Tell me what you did to me! "

"And what if I don't?"

Once again turning enraged from seeing the carefree and relaxed look in Bai Long's eyes, Meirong instinctively clenched her chest which soon started hurting from her thoughts of wanting to hurt him.

"When you are requesting something, it's always best to be polite right?"

Gritting her teeth in frustration, Meirong took a moment to calm down before finally speaking.

"Can I know what you did to me?"

"Nope."

Turning his head away with a smirk, Bai Long opened his mouth wide to let Linxin continued feeding him those herbs which his body was craving for.

Even though consuming those herbs wouldn't allow Bai Long to recover from his period of weakness instantly, they would slowly refill the blood he lost in the process of placing the Demon's Curse on Meirong.

"You.... "

Swallowing down the words she truly wanted to say, Meirong felt like crying from not even being able to think badly about Bai Long.

Despite knowing that Bai Long was deliberately playing with her, Meirong couldn't help but get infuriated due to the situation.

"Please..?"

Raising an eyebrow in surprise at how easily Meirong gave up and used the word please, Bai Long said, "Fine. But only because I'm a man who doesn't just have a big dick but a very big heart as well."

"I put a curse on you."

"I knew it!"

Not saying anymore since Meirong interfered, Bai Long only ate those herbs he was being spoon-fed until she gritted her teeth and apologized for interrupting him.

"Anyway, long story short I put a curse on you which won't let you go against any order I give you."

"So, all you need to do is follow my orders and nothing bad will happen to you. But, if I end up dying, you will die alongside me."

The more she heard the more Meirong felt angry towards Bai Long and lucky that she didn't try to kill him while bearing with the pain.

At the same time, she asked, "Why did you do this me? I never did anything to you two to deserve this. I'm innocent!"

Rolling his eyes with a smile on his face Bai Long said, "Who in this world is ever truly innocent? But in this case, your fault would be being the elder who was sent to escort my mother."

"Huh? Shouldn't you be angry for the root cause of this all, which is me having recruited your mother?"

Looking towards Meirong as if she was an idiot, Bai Long shook his head and said, "I'm actually thankful towards you for recruiting her. If you hadn't done that, who knows how different my life would've been right now."

Bai Long wasn't lying at all, because if Linxin didn't have the Yin Plundering Sect's name to keep Bai Zhen and everyone else in check, her life would definitely have been very different right now.

"If you are thankful to me, then why not get rid of this curse?"

Smirking coldly, Bai Long said, "It's because I'm thankful that I only placed a curse on you and didn't turn you into a mindless puppet."

Shivering a little from those eyes which didn't seem to be lying, Meirong didn't dare question Bai Long on the authenticity of his claim.

"What do you want with me?"

"You've got two choices Meirong. One, submit to me and do as I say while I take over the Yin Plundering Sect from the inside. Or two, go against me and end up dying a grave less death."

The choice to take was quite an obvious one to Meirong. Why would anyone join a sect? It was to go strong and live for longer. 

But now that her life was being threatened, what could having loyalty towards the Yin Plundering Sect do for her?

"What benefits would I have in submitting to you?"

"You mean other than being able to live?"Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click www.novelhall.comfor visiting.

Nodding her head resolutely, Meirong showed that she wouldn't be turning her back on the Yin Plundering Sect for free.

"Fine. Tell me what you want."

Blinking her eyes in surprise at this question, Meirong who was ready to being rejected was sent into thoughts about thinking what she should ask for.

But before that, could he even give her what she wanted?

Other than that one technique which he used to place a curse on her, did he have anything else of worth?

"I want... "

What did she want?

Having spent so many years training inside the Yin Plundering Sect, Meirong herself could not remember what her original goal behind becoming a cultivator was.

All that kept her going right now was craving to increase her strength.

"I'll tell you later."

Chuckling and nodding his head, Bai Long didn't say anything else and just lied there because there was nothing more that needed to be said. And, even speaking was quite exhausting for the current him.

Seeing this Linxin resumed feeding those crushed herbs to her son, while Meirong stared towards the two with eyes that had no emotions in them.

"If you two will please leave, I'd like to sleep."

Shaking his head, Bai Long said, "We're taking over this tent for the night. Go and sleep on the grass or inside the others tents for now. Let's talk in the morning."
