Wake Up Male Lead, You Belong With The Female Lead! - Chapter 24-2

“Lotus—”

The woman’s sharp claws almost touched Lin Jiu’s fair pearly hands.

A dark golden lotus suddenly reflected on her bright red eyes.

It was as if it existed and didn’t exist at the same time, like a magical bubble and would break with just one touch. Even the woman in red, who was already insane, was attracted by the dark golden lotus’s charm.

She dazedly touched the lotus petals with her sharp nails. It did not break as expected, but it felt dense, indestructible, and was made of an indescribable type of gold and iron.

“Break!” Lin Jiu finished the last word.

The dark golden lotus bloomed with brilliant rays of light. It was pure, beautiful, and strong, and was hard to defend against. Countless lotus petals that seemed to be real but also imaginary twirled around lightly like dancing blades in a whirlpool that shimmered in the moonlight.

The woman in red didn’t have time to even react before she was swept away by the dark golden rays and torn apart with the ferocity of flames. Each of the lotus petals were like knives, completely slashing her into pieces.

Then, eternal damnation.

“No—“ she let out a terrified cry, “I don’t want to die! I want to be with Master Ji Yuan—”

The dark rays dispersed in all directions, and the woman in red disintegrated into ashes.

Lin Jiu pursed her lips and took a deep breath. The last speck of ash turned into nothingness in front of her.

Thanks to the blush on the woman’s cheeks, Lin Jiu could easily identify her weakness at the very first instant—overconfident of her looks. So she mocked the woman in red and focused on her weakness, successfully collecting the last bit of hatred for the eighth petal of the lotus blossom and unlocking the ultimate move, Shock Lotus Break.

The scene in front of her slowly turned into a blur.

Lin Jiu knew that she had successfully purified the malice and was getting ready to leave the place.

After calming herself down, her mind felt very weak. Lin Jiu subconsciously scanned for the lotus in her mind, and suddenly had a really bad feeling about this!

The eight lotus petals were slowly closing.

Lin Jiu had experienced this once and knew what the closing lotus petals meant. If she couldn’t provide the lotus with enough aura, it will start to suck on the life force from her!

“How can there be such side effects after unleashing an ultimate move!” Lin Jiu complained, as she couldn’t help herself but feel angry and flustered.

A flower suddenly appeared in front of her.

Before she could look at her surroundings clearly, she heard a pleasant cry in the air. “The grievance of the undead is gone!”

Lin Jiu calmed herself down, and the next moment she saw Wei Liang enjoying the moment and withdrawing the finger that was placed on her forehead.

She grabbed him. “Quick, I need aura!” she said anxiously.

Liu Qing Yin rushed right over, her pretty face tainted red and her tone sounding more anxious than Lin Jiu’s. “Master! Please help me to ingest the spiritual herb!”

Lin Jiu’s heart suddenly sank. She blinked and looked at Liu Qing Yin. Her face looked energetic, cheeks flushed.

Lin Jiu was taken aback and wondered if she had made the wrong assumptions. If the male protagonist and female protagonist had the opportunity, certainly they would develop their relationship further.

Lin Jiu couldn’t describe what she was feeling inside.

At the moment, Liu Qing Yin only cared about the spiritual herb.

The lotus was closing. If Wei Liang decided to give Liu Qing Yin the spiritual herb, where would Lin Jiu even look for such huge amounts of aura to feed the lotus?

Liu Qing Yin was already impatiently reaching out for the spiritual seed as her pretty face smiled like the spring wind. “As long as I absorb the herb, it can cure my cold syndrome and relieve the love poison! So Master already knew that by relieving the grievances of the undead, it will unlock the spiritual herb!”

Liu Qing Yin had never thought about whether Wei Liang had any other plans. Master had always been dedicated to himself, and although he looked cold and distant from the outside, his heart was still the kindest. He has been secretly looking for the spiritual herb for many years, he finally succeeded in getting it today. It was impossible for him not to give it to her.

Thinking about it this way, Liu Qing Yin suddenly felt that when he said she had to “clear heart and little desires”, he was deliberately teasing her.

“Master, you’re so mean!” Liu Qing Yin couldn’t help but complain.

Lin Jiu listened silently beside them, and was taken aback again—she had only left for a short while, so how did so many things happen here? Even when such a powerful catalyst like the love poison was used to develop the plot?!

Just when Liu Qing Yin’s jade fingers were about to touch the spiritual herb, Wei Liang moved his sleeves casually, and the spiritual herb gently and skillfully slipped past Liu Qing Yin’s fingertips and drifted into Wei Liang’s palm.

Lin Jiu couldn’t care much about anything else at this moment. She grabbed Wei Liang’s wrist and stared right into his eyes. “I want it,” she said.

Lin Jiu pursed her lips, and repeated: “I want it.”

She suddenly felt weak.

At this moment, was there any difference between her and the villainess in the book? Knowing that the male protagonist’s heart only cared for the female protagonist, she knew that forcing him would only bring humiliation on herself, but…she had to demand for it!

The situation was serious and she had no other choice. Without the aura, she might die here.

But…it was so embarrassing and ridiculous to fight head-on with the female protagonist.

At this critical moment of life and death, her tough and calm appearance melted away.

Her gaze went blank.

The Red Lotus was about to close!

Wei Liang lowered his gaze to look at her, and was startled for a moment. As he looked into this petite girl’s sparkling eyes, it was obvious that she was trying to be coquettish, but she seemed to be pleading with him, a little hopeless. Her beautiful cherry lips were pressed tightly together, and her small and slender fingers were unconsciously pressing into him, deeply sinking into his wrist bone.

What was wrong with her?
