Bloody Emperor 22 Reading Mind?

"Well..." Dai Jingyi was getting more and more nervous because she couldn't think of anything.

"Your non-human friend..." Dai Jingyi wanted to talk about the non-human, but she didn't know if Nero would react well.

"Her name is Marie." Nero hated that people called Marie of 'non-human.' Indeed, she was not human, but she had a name like everyone else.

"So, Marie, she's not dead, right?" Dai Jingyi started trying to make Nero realize that he was going too far for someone who was supposed to be fine now.

"Do you think that will stop me from killing Dai Zhi? Marie would have died terribly and brutally if I hadn't made it there in time." Nero was losing patience. He thought this girl was going to be more interesting.

"Look well, and see what you have already done. You killed almost everyone in my family. You probably crippled my dad and made my sister pa.s.s out from panicking in her own urine." Dai Jingyi wanted to show Nero that he had done extreme damage to them and that her family would probably never be able to recover from that damage.

"About that, I agree with you. I did a good job, but I'm not done yet. When I finish your sister, you will know." Nero thought that was all that Dai Jingyi had to say, but when he tried to go towards the pa.s.sed out Dai Zhi, his arm was held by the little girl.

"Please understand that you have already done us much harm. It all started with my sister's mistake, but you killed so many people that I think, in fact, you just wanted to kill us and used Marie as a reason."

Dai Jingyi said everything as quickly as she could in a clear and fairway. She thought that her words could make Nero rethink his actions, but it did not have that result.

Nero thought that everything Dai Jingyi said made a lot of sense. In fact, all he wanted now and will probably want in the future is to kill humans. Marie's case affected him in a way that he still didn't quite understand, but it brought together the two wills to kill humans, so who cares?

But Nero found the little girl's way of thinking quite interesting. She had been right about him wanting to kill them regardless of Marie, and she was able to speak very convincingly.

"You are right. So I'm sorry for killing others. Consider it as if I wanted to kill them and not for Marie. Now about her, I still want to hurt your sister more, but I'm not going to touch anyone else, okay?"

Nero gave a mischievous smile that made Dai Jingyi's heart beat faster. But she was not falling in love but more afraid of him because she believed that this demon was capable of any monstrosity.

When Nero finished speaking, he again went towards Dai Zhi, causing Dai Jingyi to panic again. She did not want her sister to suffer anymore because everything had already been horrible, and probably her family would have nightmares forever with that night.

"Wait! I will agree that you punish her more." When Nero walked a few more steps, Dai Jingyi shouted something that made him stop because he did not believe what he heard.

"Eh?" Nero did not understand how this little girl who was fighting so hard to protect her family and did not try to run away would ever say something like that now. He gave a confused look that made his point clear for Dai Jingyi to explain quickly.

"I understand that you have to do this for Marie. You are right to be a very protective person to those you love and have to show that others cannot hurt her and go unpunished. Seriously, I understand that, and I agree that you punish my sister more. But on one condition if you will allow me."

Dai Jingyi increasingly surprised Nero, who, for the first time, thought that a human was not so disgusting. He didn't understand how such a young girl could argue with him like that for so long in a room full of mutilated bodies of her family members.

"What condition?" Nero knew she was brilliant and observant, so he tried his best to look serious and not let her realize that he thought good of her.

"That you punish me instead of her." Dai Jingyi boldly declared, already sure that she probably would not survive.

"Why?" That shocked Nero very much as he thought about how Dai Zhi had such a good sister that would die for her.

"She is my sister, blood of my blood. If I can't protect her, who will?" Dai Jingyi thought that she was foolish for trying to defend Dai Zhi, who was always so spoiled and irresponsible. Often she had to clean up the mess for her older sister and still takes the blame for mistakes she hadn't made.

Dai Jingyi has always believed that the family should support itself above all and remain united. When she saw her family suffering so much, she was very sad. She even really liked the people in the second branch of the family and the servants.

Dai Jinyi was a very dedicated and protective person who would not stand still as long as she could prevent people dear to her from suffering. So it seemed right for her to sacrifice herself for her sister.

"This is very admirable of you. But you don't even look like a cultivator. How do you expect to survive when I start torturing you? Or is it okay if I kill you?" Nero didn't think so badly of a human for the first time, and he didn't want to kill her. At least not now.

"Yes, you can't kill me because it wouldn't make sense to punish me with death when Marie didn't die. What is certain is that you beat me like she was beaten." Dai Jingyi spoke a lot of random things that came to her mind without knowing that she looked like a sage now.

"So how am I supposed to do this without killing you? This idea is yours, so you have to give all the solutions!" Nero found the little girl's way of thinking more and more interesting and wanted to see what she would do. He even started to wonder if her blood would be better than the others because she was less 'stupid human.'

Dai Jingyi was happy that the 'Demon' seemed to hear what she was saying. If she could continue to get his attention, things might not end in the worst way. But now she had to think faster and faster and find the solution to the question of not dying in torture.

"If only I were stronger!" Dai Jingyi regretted not paying so much attention to cultivation. She was still very young and had to deal with family matters since her mother was always very busy with research before she left.

Dai Dong always paid more attention to Dai Zhi and focused on helping her to become stronger, so Dai Jingyi ended up being the person responsible for running the house even though she was very young. Now she had no cultivation, and her body was like a normal person. If she were tortured by Nero, who was such a strong cultivator even if he took it easy, she would still die quickly.

"AH! If I am not strong now to be tortured, I could be one day!" Dai Jingyi, who was thinking deeply, found the solution when she shouted.

"Explain it." Nero already had an idea of her plan from the words he heard. But he was in doubt as to whether he would accept it because he never thought he would not want to kill a human for being interesting.

"It's very simple. You can't torture me now because I'm weak. So I will work hard on cultivation, and when I get stronger, you will punish me until you are satisfied." Dai Jingyi spoke excitedly because even she thought the plan was excellent.

It was strange to see someone so happy to want to be strong to be tortured. But Nero understood that her plan made sense.

"It is not so simple. What makes you think that I would like to torture you more than your sister?" Nero sure thinks that the little girl is more interesting than Dai Zhi, but he would never say that to a human. Too bad he didn't have to.

Before Dai Jingyi could answer, Nero went on talking. "And how am I going to make sure you keep the promise?"

"It's not like I can just leave this place, and you can always come back here and kill everyone. I would not lie in that situation." Dai Jingyi responded promptly, hoping that Nero would not doubt her as she was speaking the truth and would never return with her words.

"How am I supposed to know that you won't run away when you get strong enough?" Nero found it interesting to talk to this little girl because she always made different expressions ranging from confusion and worry, then going to happy and others when she thought about something or had a good idea.

"You should already have an idea of what kind of person I am. I haven't tried to save myself once, and I'm here arguing with a scary demon to save what's left of my family. Am I not responsible?" Dai Jingyi boldly spoke, then crossed her arms and puffed out her cheeks in a way that Nero found very cute.

"What the f.u.c.k!? Humans are not cute!! They are prey!!!" Nero was repeating these words in his mind and in a way that Sarah was listening as if he was asking for help. But she could only roll her eyes at this strange situation.

"So? Do you accept it?" Dai Jingyi was looking very brave in confidence, but inside, she was just as scared as Dai Zhi or even more.

Dai Jingyi lost count of how many times she had to hold back tears and urine today. Sometimes she has the feeling that her vision is getting darker, but she has to be strong because she was the only one standing to discuss her family's life and death.

Dai Jingyi knew that the plan was very crazy, and hardly anyone would believe it even if she was telling the truth. But she had a hunch about Nero. One that, unfortunately, for him, was right.

"I could accept it. But I could also kill your whole family and not for Marie but because I want to and no one would stop me. Can you give me a good reason for not doing that?" Nero made a sinister expression trying to scare Dai Jingyi just to see her reaction.

Dai Jinyi was on her limit. She wasn't going to be able to stand for another full minute before she started crying and collapsing. But she still had the last trump card.

Dai Jingyi was not sure if her last move would work as it looked really crazy, but she saw several signs in Nero that she could be right. So this was the time to risk everything, and she had to be correct. For her and her family's sake. Maybe not so much for her sake.

"You will accept my suggestion because... You find me interesting!" Dai Jingyi started bravely, but then she reached the limit and closed her eyes with various feelings driving her crazy. She was afraid, angry, hopeful, proud, and even embarra.s.sed; after all, she was still a fourteen-year-old girl.

"Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeh?" Nero almost fell with the impact those words had on him.

"Does this mean that she saw through me all the time and was playing with me? But how was she supposed to know my thoughts? Does she read minds? d.a.m.n, she is really different from other humans! Is she fourteen, or is she an old dwarf witch?"

All of these thoughts made Nero's mind a mess. It would be like that with anyone who thought they were so smart and then be entirely discovered by a little girl. Dai Jingyi would be amused to see Nero's confused expressions if she wasn't shaking with her eyes closed.

"You stupid fool! It was stamped on your face the whole time that you were finding her very interesting. She still took a long time to realize or found it hard to believe that someone like you would find her interesting while killing and torturing her family." Sarah spoke to Nero, taking him out of the strange thoughts.

"But it was still obvious from the expressions you made when you looked at her saying random things. You are always so good with words and acting, but you didn't think a little girl would be at risk. So you stopped acting and was exposed for her to see right through you."

"Thank you, Sarah. I don't know what I would do without you. Now I understand how I was naive, and I will not let my guard down again even if I find the situation interesting." Nero understood that the little girl was not some kind of old dwarf witch but that he made his feelings visible.

Now he would have to be more careful because if he did it again, the other person might not be as simple as a little girl. But in reality, the situation was not as simple as Sarah said because most people would not have understood Nero by his expressions and would not have the courage to reveal it. Dai Jingyi was many things but not simple.
