Let’s Squander A Billion First!

Chapter 663 -663: The Priestess’s Charms (39)

“Having too much money to burn isn’t okay?”

“…” It is.

But this is playing with your life!!

Those people just now were serious!

They really wanted to summon the God of Darkness… oh, no, the magic wand of the God of Darkness.

And then you go and do this, even the Slaying Array was fake!

If they find out, wouldn’t they be infuriated to death?

Fu Yu glanced towards the direction of the Pit of Ten Thousand.

The very first magic array, he hadn’t felt it possessed much lethality, it seemed more like…

It was just meant to burn those corpses.

The thought startled Fu Yu.

Miss Chuzheng didn’t look like such a good person at all.

Definitely, he was overthinking it.

Overthinking it.

Overthinking overthinking…

–

When Yin Wen woke up, he was imprisoned in a cell within The Temple, completely sealed off, where he couldn’t sense any elements.

There was a magic array here blocking the elements, so much so that even the Dark Element within his body couldn’t be activated.

Places designed to hold magicians were mostly like this.

Yin Wen felt incredibly wronged.

The face that flashed before Yin Wen’s eyes made him seethe with irritation.

Clang——

The cell door was opened by someone, and the person Yin Wen had just been thinking of now appeared at the entrance of the cell.

Yin Wen stood up immediately from the ground, “You cheated!”

Yin Wen was confident in his own strength. If she hadn’t used such underhanded means and fought him fairly with magic, she could never have beaten him.

“Cheating is also a skill,” If I won using my skills, what right do you have to say I cheated! I didn’t stop you from using them either!

Yin Wen felt suffocated.

He had no idea how Chuzheng had cheated.

Yin Wen gritted his teeth and sneered coldly, “What’s this? Now that I’m a prisoner, did Miss Chuzheng come here to humiliate me further?”

“I don’t have that kind of free time.”

To Yin Wen, those words sounded undoubtedly like disdain, scorn, discrimination… in short, all sorts of negative descriptions he thought could apply.

“Then what are you here for?”

Chuzheng didn’t beat around the bush, and directly asked, “How do you take out the Magic Stone from inside Lingji’s body?”

Yin Wen was first stunned, then burst into what seemed like laughter at a hilarious joke, “You’re asking me?”

“Is there a ghost here?”

“Hahahaha…”

Yin Wen laughed like a madman, almost crying from laughter.

Chuzheng: “…”

If you’re sick, you must be treated.

You can’t delay!

After laughing enough, Yin Wen’s facial muscles struggled to relax, and his still somewhat handsome face appeared slightly bizarre under the dim light of the cell.

“If Miss Chuzheng wants to retrieve the Magic Stone, just cut open the body, haha…”

“…”

I see you, you damned cur, want to be sliced open first!

Yin Wen sat back down, his expression full of sarcastic and untamed sneers.

Clearly, he had no intention of telling Chuzheng.

Chuzheng watched him for a few seconds, then turned and left.

Yin Wen thought Chuzheng had given up, but to his surprise, she appeared again in the middle of the night.

And her manner didn’t seem like she had come by the official route.

Because he held an ‘I won’t tell you anything’ attitude and was extremely uncooperative.

Then…

Yin Wen became unfortunate.

Chuzheng did not like to torture people, but if she needed to ask questions, she didn’t mind letting the other person suffer a bit.

“I don’t know!” Yin Wen lay on the ground, glaring at Chuzheng with rage, “You’re so powerful, why come and ask me?”

Yin Wen felt he had run into terrible luck.

I just met her!

I should never have taken that job in the first place.

Why haven’t the prison guards noticed anything unusual yet!!

Chuzheng remained silent, while Yin Wen only felt the pain intensifying on his body.

Yin Wen gritted his teeth and endured for a while.

In the end, he couldn’t help but shout, “Taking out the magic stone means death for him!!”

That magic stone had already become one with Lingji, the dark elements had taken root in his body, competing with the light elements for control.

If it was removed now, there was only death waiting for him.

–

The people of The Temple were busy dealing with the aftermath of Yin Wen’s affairs, and Lingji was nowhere to be seen all day.

Only Yin Wen knew the true scale of the Dark Moon Organization; it was a shame that he wouldn’t reveal anything, but fortunately, the people of The Temple were not too incompetent and managed to discover some things.

The Dark Magicians were being purged again.

Chuzheng, having nothing better to do, spent her days in The Temple’s Book Pavilion.

Bastard only left to go on a spree whenever he got a mission.

Probably everyone in Penghua City knew that there was a foolishly rich landlord’s naive daughter who would come to squander her wealth every few days, and all the shopkeepers kept her in mind.

The person on the shopkeepers’ minds was now lying on a soft couch by the window of the Book Pavilion, her face covered by a magic book.

The wind blew in through the window, bringing with it a few petals.

The falling petals twirled and settled in the woman’s hair, adding a hint of warm color.

Chuzheng’s face, covered by the book, was exposed as someone pulled it down, and she opened her eyes slightly, his handsome face magnifying before her, and a tender kiss landed on her lips.

“Lingji…” Chuzheng called out softly.

“Hmm?”

Thereafter, only ambiguous soft sounds were left.

Lingji’s kisses were so emotionally confusing and infatuating, if the couch hadn’t been so small, he probably wouldn’t have been able to resist entangling with Chuzheng right there.

“Are you done with your business?” Chuzheng flipped through the book in her hand as if nothing happened.

“Almost,” Lingji sat on the ground with his face buried in her lap, the lines of his profile extraordinarily soft, somehow looking exceptionally obedient.

Chuzheng glanced at his face a couple of times before seriously resuming her reading.

“I can leave the remaining matters to others and be with you now,” he said.

“Okay,” Chuzheng paused, “Does it bother you not to take out the magic stone?”

“I’ve gotten used to it,” Lingji replied.

He didn’t want to remove the magic stone.

He used to dislike the dark elements within his body.

But now…

Because she was a Dark Magician, he started to accept these dark elements.

It made him feel a little closer to her.

“Does it hurt?”

Lingji shook his head and smiled at Chuzheng, “Those dark elements don’t cause me too much trouble.”

They seldom made themselves known, only during moments when he couldn’t control his temper would they suddenly break through the suppression of the light elements and take a dominant position.

Chuzheng wasn’t sure if they could be removed at all.

Whether what Yin Wen said was true or false…

So she didn’t dare to act rashly.

Since Good Person Card didn’t feel any discomfort, she just had to make sure he didn’t turn dark in the future.

“Why didn’t you tell me before going away last time?” Lingji’s voice suddenly grew deep.

“…” Why is he still hung up on that?

Weren’t we past that?

What kind of excuse should I find to fob him off…

Lingji moved closer to Chuzheng, wrapping his arms around her waist, and said in a muffled voice, “From now on, no matter where you go or what you do, you must tell me, okay?”

The tone was full of a sense of grievance.

It softened her heart.

“Okay,” Chuzheng agreed quickly.

Lingji tightened his hold on her arm ever so slightly.

“You want to… come up here?” Chuzheng suggested.

Lingji wanted to go up too; the spot was too cramped. He shook his head and just held onto Chuzheng.

The next day, Lingji discovered that the couch in the Book Pavilion had gotten bigger.

To say that it could fit two people was an understatement; even if they rolled around on it, there would be no issue.

Lingji: “…”
