Villainous Cao Cao: Inheriting Everything from the Chosen One

84: I want your hearts.Cao Bu’s expression did not change in the slightest as he said indifferently, ”Not a match? I, Cao Bu, am only in the Heavenly Bridge Realm, while she is already in the Divine Power Realm. How am I not a match?”

”Have you forgotten?” Leng Yue hurriedly retorted, ”There is now the nine revolutions emperor bone rebuilding pill formula!”

”If it can be refined, your Dantian can be restored, and your talent will soar.”

”Even Heavenly Emperor Lu said that you might even become an Emperor in the future. She simply is not a match for you.”

Cao Bu pushed her away, stood up, took out a new set of clothes, and numbly put them on. ”Do you really think this pill can be refined?”

Leng Yue hurriedly said, ”Why wouldn’t it be?”

”An emperor bone physique is rare in a million years.” Cao Bu looked up at her. ”Would the emperor bone on your son be removed for me to use?”

Leng Yue froze instantly.

After a long while, she whispered, ”I know the location of the tomb of the previous emperor bone possessor. I gave the map to Fenger.”

”When he returns, I will have him give the map to me, and I will go find it for you myself. Is that not enough?”

”It is not a matter of whether my Dantian can be restored now.” There was grief in Cao Bu’s voice, and his eyes were slightly red. ”It is that my happiness has been torn apart by you.”

Leng Yue grabbed the hand he was using to dress and said word by word, ”Things have reached this point, so I will not hide it from you anymore. From now on, you are not allowed to associate with any other women.”

Her voice suddenly sank, carrying an unquestionable hardness. ”Cao Bu, you can only belong to me.”

”I can pretend that what happened between you and her in the past never happened.”

”But from now on, you cannot have any involvement with her at all.”

Cao Bu frowned tightly. ”Are you spying on me?”

”Yes.” Leng Yue did not deny it, her tone carrying a hint of killing intent. ”If you have any physical intimacy with her again, I will have someone wipe her out.”

”You...” Cao Bu glared at her, gnashing his teeth. ”You are despicable!”

Leng Yue shook her head nonchalantly and said softly, ”Cao Bu, I truly love you. Why don’t you understand?”

Cao Bu shook his head and sneered, continuing to dress numbly. ”Love me? Who would believe that if you said it out loud?”

”It is true!” Leng Yue hurriedly explained. ”Since our last encounter, I realized that you are the white moonlight in my heart.”

”Then what about my Adoptive Father?” Cao Bu’s tone was full of heartache. ”With you acting like this, where does that leave my Adoptive Father?”

”Don’t mention him to me!” Leng Yue suddenly roared. ”He is just a piece of trash!”

”Slap!” A slap landed on Leng Yue’s face before she could react.

Cao Bu’s gaze was fierce, and he roared coldly, ”I do not allow you to speak of my Adoptive Father that way!”

Seeming to realize he had lost his composure, his tone softened. ”Whoever dares to call my Adoptive Father trash, I will have it out with her.”

After saying this, he ignored Leng Yue and continued dressing.

Leng Yue covered her left cheek, staring blankly at Cao Bu. She had actually been slapped.

Yet, there was not a hint of displeasure in her heart; she was even faintly happy.

Having experienced what just happened, Leng Yue was even clearer about what she wanted.

Before Gu Qingtian’s Ascension, he had never satisfied her. After his Ascension, she was left even more empty every night.

Everything that just happened made her determined to keep Cao Bu by her side, no matter the cost.

Leng Yue suddenly stepped forward and tore the clothes Cao Bu was halfway into to shreds.

She pushed Cao Bu down, her tone urgent. ”You don’t believe me? I will show you right now that everything I said is true!”

Cao Bu lay there, motionless, with no expression on his face, only numbness remaining.

Seeing him like this, Leng Yue’s heart ached. ”Why? Can you not just stop putting on that face?”

”Faced with someone like you, what expression should I have?” Cao Bu said indifferently. ”Come on. Even if you obtain my body, you will never obtain my heart.”

After saying this, he simply closed his eyes.

Leng Yue clenched her fists, losing interest instantly.

She stared fixedly at Cao Bu and gritted her teeth. ”I want your body, but I want your heart even more!”

”Cao Bu, just wait. I will make you fall deeply in love with me, until you are begging me to love you!”

Cao Bu still did not speak and did not open his eyes.

Suddenly, Leng Yue violently spat out a mouthful of black blood, splattering it all over Cao Bu.

Cao Bu opened his eyes, a flicker of worry flashing quickly through their depths.

This emotion was captured by Leng Yue, and she suddenly smiled. ”Don’t deceive yourself, Cao Bu. You still care about me, don’t you?”

Cao Bu wiped the black blood from his face, his tone remaining flat. ”I am worried about my Adoptive Mother, not you.”

Even though she knew this concern was only due to her status as his Adoptive Mother, and not as a lover, Leng Yue still felt a surge of joy.

She immediately sat down cross-legged and began to force the remaining eleven types of toxins into her legs.

Cao Bu watched her, the corners of his mouth quietly curling into an arc, and then he took out another set of clothes to put on, waiting quietly on the side.

One day later. Leng Yue opened her eyes, a trace of disappointment flashing in their depths.

The moment she saw Cao Bu, the disappointment immediately turned into joy.

Her tone even softened, carrying a bit of the girlish demeanor she usually lacked. ”Cao Bu, I have forced the remaining eleven types of toxins into my legs, and now I am relying entirely on my cultivation to suppress them.”

”My legs cannot move, and I cannot use my cultivation. You will have to carry me back for the rest of the journey.”

Cao Bu did not look at her and turned to leave, his tone devoid of any warmth. ”There is no need for you to pretend for me.”

”Once we return to the Gu Clan, I will resign from my position as chief steward and find a place to spend the rest of my life.”

”As for the things between us, let us just consider it a dream.”

As his voice faded, he had already walked out of the cave.

”Cao Bu, I am not pretending!” Leng Yue’s voice trembled with anxiety. ”I really cannot move right now. I must return to the Gu Clan within a year, or I will surely die!”

There was no response from outside.

Leng Yue suppressed her grief, using her hands to support herself on the ground, crawling toward the cave entrance bit by bit.

Outside the cave, Cao Bu stretched, a triumphant smile appearing on his face.

This was the result he wanted. The love gu could make Leng Yue into his sycophant.

This identity must be utilized well; let Leng Yue become a sharp blade in his hands.

Suddenly, he heard the sound of crawling coming from inside the cave. He immediately wiped away his smile, turned around, and stood at the cave entrance with a blank expression, waiting for Leng Yue to come out.

A few moments later, Leng Yue crawled out of the cave.

Seeing Cao Bu waiting for her at the entrance, a smile instantly blossomed on her face. ”I knew it. You wouldn’t just leave me be.”

She was no different from a Mortal now; she did not even dare to use her Divine Sense. As long as she used even a fraction, the toxins in her legs would immediately claim her life.

Cao Bu squatted down without expression and carried her on his back, asking, ”In which direction is Sword Province?”

Leng Yue raised her hand and pointed. ”It should be this direction.”

Cao Bu walked in the direction she pointed and spoke again, ”When we return to the Gu Clan, I will take her away. I hope you will not interfere.”

A flash of killing intent flickered in Leng Yue’s eyes. This killing intent was not directed at Cao Bu, but at Yan Ruyu.

As the sun set, the shadows of the two were stretched long and thin.

Leng Yue rested her head on Cao Bu’s back, inhaling his scent, and a happy smile curled the corners of her mouth.
