Battle Royale of the Sinners Chapter 95

Chapter 95

Chapter 95 – Diao Chan

The next day, a six-year-old child was escorted into the inner palace . She was the young Diao Chan .

"Little girl, behave yourself when you are in front of the prince . He will be the Emperor in a few months . Be sure to get his favor, so you can become the next Empress . "

"…"

The girl did not talk . She only looked at his adopted father with her indifferent eyes and s.h.i.+fted her gaze forward .

w.a.n.g Yun sighed . Although she was cute and had potential to grow up into a beauty, she was cold to everyone . She never played with other children of her age . She only spoke if she was asked a question . She never expressed her emotion to anyone . All she did all day was gazing into a distance as if she was thinking about something .

At first, w.a.n.g Yun thought this child was slow or an air-head . However, one day he asked her an ambiguous question to jest her . "What's the purpose of life?"

She answered him in a monotonous tone . "A trial . "

w.a.n.g Yun was shocked by the profoundness of her answer . It was short, yet deep . Most importantly, it was not something that should come out from the mouth of a young girl!

Ever since then, he always tested her with difficult questions, which she answered all of them in a profound manner .

He believed that this girl was a genius child, so he did not hire any tutor for her but gave her scrolls and books to her instead .

She did not betray his expectation as she read and memorized all of them . She could even recite every word from every difficult annals, record, or scripture that she had read .

With this kind of intelligent child, he could offer her as a candidate for the next Empress with pride .

…

w.a.n.g Yun and Diao Chan were guided into Liu Ping's private hall . Once they entered, Liu Ping was already there with his doll, w.a.n.g Li, by his side . They were sitting on the same seats as yesterday .

"Reporting to your highness . I've brought my daughter . "

Liu Ping stared at Diao Chan with great attention . A few seconds later, he sighed in disappointment .

He knew that Diao Chan should still be young because she first appeared in the year 192 in w.a.n.g Yun's ploy to sow discord between Lu Bu and Dong Zhuo . He did not expect that she was still this young .

Despite being disappointed, he stood up and walked toward the little girl .

"Come here . Let me take a good look at you . "

Diao Chan was recorded as one of the four great beauties of ancient China . Even if she was too young at the moment, she would dazzle every man in the next ten years .

With that in mind, Liu Ping decided to take her in and waited until she was ripe for a picking . In the meantime, he had many women he could play with as all concubines of his father had been pa.s.sed down to his . Therefore, he could wait .

Diao Chan stared at the incoming Liu Ping . Her face was emotionless, and her eyes were still as cold as ever .

Liu Ping stopped in front of her . He reached out his hand to touch her cheek .

Suddenly, he came to a pause . His arm stopped moving toward Diao Chan while his eyes stared straight into her eyes . His inner instinct was crying inside his mind, asking him to flee at this very moment .

'This is odd . Why am I feeling insecure about this girl?'

'Because I knew she backstabbed Dong Zhuo in the history?'

'Nah, I am imagining things . '

'But my instinct was never wrong . '

'The last time I had this feeling it's before that b.a.s.t.a.r.d broke into my house . '

'Should I be wary of her?'

'… Hmm . '

'Come to think of it . That night, there's a gold spot in the radar map . '

'Is it her?'

'Nah, she's too young to be another reincarnator . '

'All reincarnators so far are at the same age as me . '

'She's a historical figure . I doubt someone reincarnated as her . '

'Am I overly paranoid?'

'… Hmm . '

He pondered for a moment before he withdrew his hand and moved back to his seat .

"Very well, w.a.n.g Yun . I'm interested in her . She will live in my palace from now on . Once she grows up, I'll see if she qualifies to be my Empress . "

"Thank you, your highness!"

w.a.n.g Yun bowed and gestured Diao Chan to bow too, which she followed after her father .

"Guards . Call the servants! Escort her to a guest house . Be sure to treat her with respect!"

"Yes, your highness!"

The guards at front door rushed out . Less than a minute later, a dozen female servants rushed into the hall and bowed to Diao Chan . They guided her to the new home of the future Empress .

w.a.n.g Yun grinned from ear to ear when he saw the treatment . He succeeded in forming a bond with the royalty . This connection would give a boost to his career advancement .

…

…

Diao Chan was guided into a luxurious room . Inside the guest house, there were many picture arts hanging on the walls . Green jade vases and a marble table were arranged in an orderly manner . A king size bed was located in the middle of the room . It seemed that this room was decorated for an important concubine or the likes .

Diao Chan excused the servants and asked to be left alone .

The maids left the room in a hurry . After the door was closed, Diao Chan climbed the bed and sat cross legs .

As usual, she stared into the void s.p.a.ce in front of her and mumbled to herself .

'What a waste of time . The skill is already nerfed . '

'There's no need for me here in the first place . '

'There's that [Super Human] skill . It's quite dangerous, but there are many counters to it . '

'Should I stay a bit longer so I can delete that skill?'

'Even if I can delete it right now, I can't escape this place in one piece . '

' . . . If it wasn't because of the system, this job would have been done right then . '

'What to do …'

***************************

…

Under the skins of the future great woman hid a demon soul inside . Medusa had picked Diao Chan's embryo as her target of reincarnation .

For ordinary reincarnators, it was impossible to be reincarnated as important people or any historical figure, such as warlords or generals .

However, administrators from the netherworld or celestial world had the rights to possess the body of such people as they had to interfere with a reincarnator if he/she ran amok and ruined the ecology of a planet .

In this dimension, an abnormally had occurred . Therefore, Friday and Medusa had an excuse to infiltrate into this world to maintain the balance of the trial . However, they did not expect this dimension system to unleash its wrath upon them instead of monitoring the otherworlders .

Although the system hated the two demonesses, it also attacked Liu Ping . This was a piece of good news for Diao Chan .

'He has a [Banned] skill attaching to him . '

'It should be fine to leave him be . '

'But …'

'What's with that girl!? She's practically a monster!'

'If I have to delete a skill of someone, it has to be that girl!'

'But she's under a mind control spell . Liu Ping doesn't have that skill on him . '

'It's definitely a system power . But there was no trace . '

'Who did it to her?'

'If I undo her mind control spell, will she help me?'

Diao Chan pondered for an entire day . Before dinner time, she came up with an idea .

"System, I want to bargain . "

[My apologies . I am not DorOOOmu and you're not Dr . StOnge . We don't bargain . ]

"…"

[Just kidding . Go ahead . What do you want?]

"What price do I have to pay if I want you to cancel my [Seal] skill?"

[Hoho! Are you sure? It will be very costly . ]

Diao Chan took a deep breath . Her current future was dark . She needed an alternative option if she wanted to break free from Liu Ping at the moment .

"Tell me . "

[Answer my simple question . Then I'll lift the ban for you . ]

"It's that simple . Then ask me . "

[Alright, money question, there is a mutated soul among the reincarnators you immortals had sent . I want to know which generation of the demon that infected him . ]

Diao Chan frowned . She was hesitating if she should answer this question . If she answered, everyone on Heaven and h.e.l.l would know, and chaos would follow .

[It seems too hard for you . Then I'll change a question . The demoness that turned that man's soul into a mutated, had she come with you?]

"… Yes . "

[Good . That explains a lot . I think I can connect the stories of your people now . ]

[As promised, I'll lift a ban for you . But I can't get rid some of the bans because you failed to answer my first question . ]

*Ding*

[I have erased the condition (Host cannot accept any mission from the system) from your seal . You will also be able to access the system shop . However, the rest of the bans will still be on you . If you want to get rid of those, help me with some tasks . I'll give you the details in the quest tabs . ]
