Chapter 349  The Hunter Who Killed Immortals (100)

Teleportation?

No… that didn't make sense… it was completely illogical…

Why would the sect leader send the future successor of her clan straight into the heart of enemy territory?

She would be killed if her old master Lei Ying or her former sect leader found out that she was here!

Wait… calm down… think rationally…

Xu Lu took in a few deep breaths and looked around her immediate surroundings.

She recognised the full body length mirror leaning against one of the walls, the badly damaged hard mattress, and the simple drawer that she used to store her limited number of clothes.

This was where she had grown up. Xu Lu frowned slightly as she felt a wave of discomfort from the original Xu Lu's emotions.

The sudden change in environment had left her feeling a bit panicked but now that she had taken the time to breathe and relax, she could think clearly.

Illusion was the more likely answer to her question.

But why? Why send her into an illusion without warning or preparation?

"Good luck."

Those were the last words that Yang Xia had said to her before she suddenly appeared right inside her old room.

Why? Why would she need luck? What was this place?

Why trap her in this illusion?

Questions filled Xu Lu's mind as she wandered around the room searching every nook and cranny to see if she could spot some clues.

However, there was one area that she consciously avoided.

She did not look in the direction of the mirror.

The minutes that passed felt like hours and eventually Xu Lu lost track of time.

She had lifted up every wooden plank, fabric, and the mattress… hell she had even brushed aside every spot of dust but found nothing.

There was only one place left.

Xu Lu clenched her fingers into a tight fist and turned to face the mirror head on. Her eyes widened in shock as she saw the reflection that stared back at her.

The woman in the mirror was inhumanly beautiful.

And her face… her face was the crown jewel of her gorgeous appearance. The centerpiece of her radiance.

Her skin was smooth as moonlit silk, unblemished, flawless and without even the faintest hint of scars.

Her lips were plump and sensuous, her arched brows were delicate and rested gently above her warm brown eyes that were like pools of honey.

cheekbones that created an atmosphere of regal elegance.

To her utter bewilderment the woman in the reflection followed The contours of her face could only be described as works of art sculpted together to create a perfect symmetry.

Xu Lu absentmindedly touched her high and well-defined cheekbones that created an atmosphere of regal elegance.

To her utter bewilderment the woman in the reflection followed along with her movements. She lightly touched her cheek and discovered that she was no longer wearing a mask.

This face… was it her face?

What she would have looked like if… if… not for…

She would have been this beautiful? This… this… perfect face… it was hers?

The reflection shifted for just the slightest of moments, but the change was too quick for Xu Lu to notice.

Knock! Knock!

A soft noise came from the outside of the makeshift hut and Xu Lu reflexively covered her face with her hands as the door swung open.

"Hi beautiful," a sensual feminine voice purred.

"Why are you covering your face? You know I love that part about you the most."

Jiang Xin stepped inside the room with a loving smile on her face. She walked up to Xu Lu who was still frozen and gently removed her palms.

"I'm so lucky that I found the most beautiful woman in the world to spend the rest of my life with," Jiang Xin warmly spoke.

She stood on her tip toes and gently brushed her lips against the side of Xu Lu's right cheek before stepping back.

Her calm grey eyes shone with love and affection that made Xu Lu's heart skip a beat.

"My… my face…" Xu Lu stuttered as she watched the smile on Jiang Xin's face widen before she burst into a fit of giggles.

"Yes, darling your face… the entire cultivation world envies me…" Jiang Xin bragged as she winked and swayed her hips.

"And why wouldn't they? I am the lover of the most powerful saintess in the entire history of the Holy Sword Sect!"

"Speaking of which… come! Come! It is time for the ceremony!"

Jiang Xin's voice shifted to a more excited tone as she grabbed Xu Lu by her arm and pulled her outside gleefully.

The sunlight was bright, so Xu Lu's eyes took a brief moment to adjust.

When she reopened them, she found herself standing on a raised platform with Jiang Xin by her side.

Beneath them was a massive crowd of disciples from the Holy Sword Sect. Outer, inner, true, and even in name only disciples… they were all gathered together in one place.

"Saintess! Saintess! By the gods… she is so pretty!"

"I love her! She is so pure and elegant! Like a goddess… no she is a goddess!"

"Look at her face! I… I think I am in love… MARRY ME!"

The chants that she was attractive or beautiful soon echoed through the entire plaza and the disciples all began to praise Xu Lu's otherworldly beauty.

A warm hand rested on Xu Lu's shoulder and a familiar scent invaded the former saintess' nostrils.

It was the scent of jasmine mixed with sandalwood and only one person smelled like that.

Lei Ying.

Xu Lu pushed the hand off in a panic and quickly reached for her longsword to attack but found that her weapon and somehow disappeared.

"Daughter what's the matter with you?" Lei Ying asked with a bemused chuckle.

"Don't panic every time I scare you… you'll get wrinkles and spoil that lovely face of yours… my… you are truly… remarkable…"

Lei Ying placed a hand on her chest and let out a sigh. The pride in her voice was clear to hear as she praised her favourite and only disciple.

No one else was worthy of being her apprentice.

Only the most gorgeous and perfect woman in the world.

"Babe… don't be so jumpy all the time," Jiang Xin giggled softly as she reached out using her hand and stroked Xu Lu's back with circular movements.

"How about tonight… I treat you like the queen you are… just like you deserve…"

Xu Lu could not even pay attention to Jiang Xin's sweet and seductive words as all her attention was focused on the older woman smiling at her with an innocent expression on her face.

"But… you… you locked me… no this… this is all fake… I…" Xu Lu's voice trailed off as a voice entered her mind.

(I don't care if it's a fake… look around you… they all love you in this world)

The voice continued to speak in a chillingly calm tone and yet Xu Lu could hear the faintest hint of desperation.

(In this world… you don't have to wear a mask. The disciples… they love us… our master she treats us like a daughter… we… I… I'm not a monster.)

(Please… if this is a dream)

(Never let me wake up)
