Miracle Doctor Miss Jiu 4 A Mark Of Cinnabar Between One's Brows, A Deal Was Made With The Great Demon King Part 1

The Great Demon King looked into her eyes and narrowed his own. There were rays of gloom rolling and tumbling within his gaze. Looking into his eyes caused Lu Jiu Que's heart to fill with such apprehension that it skipped a beat…

After a long time, the Great Demon King raised his brows and smiled brightly as he said, "No wonder you're still alive. It turns out you're someone with two souls. This is the first time I've seen someone like you."

A person with two souls?

This… Had he seen how she had traversed worlds to arrive there?

Lu Jiu Que's expression froze. She was prepared to say something, but the Great Demon King released his grip on her throat.

Regaining the right to breathe at will, Lu Jiu Que was like a fish placed back in water. Immediately, she began gasping for air greedily.

As he looked at her while she was in such distress, her appearance pathetic, he gave a vile laugh and said, "This is quite interesting. In this case, I'll spare your life, little servant."

What?

What "little servant"?

"Now, there are two paths before you. Either you die and become the fertilizer for my flowers, or you pledge yourself to me and become my servant for life. Of course, for you to be my servant, I'll help you make whatever changes this somewhat troublesome physique of yours will require."

"…" Lu Jiu Que was tempted.

This body had jinxed her entire family to death, to the point that even the fortune teller who had helped her read her fortune wasn't spared. Could this body with bad luck that couldn't possibly be surpa.s.sed really be altered?

It seemed like Lu Jiu Que's doubts hadn't gone unnoticed. The Great Demon King revealed his protruding teeth that resembled tiger fangs and looked very evil, yet he was so beautiful that people felt the urge to touch him.

"Yours truly never lies. Do you know why you were deemed someone who lacks the nine essentials of life?"

"Why?"

This was something even she herself didn't know. The person who had managed to interpret this matter was struck by lightning before he had the chance to explain, rest his soul.

"The nine essentials you lack actually refer to the lack of gold, wood, water, soil, wealth, luck, beauty, and life… So, part of you is lacking an essential aspect of life, which means that you should already be dead. The fact that you're still able to stand here alive is all because you're someone with two souls. It's just that even if you make a bet to get one of the essentials of life, you're still a person who lacks the other eight."

"…"

"You should have inherited the memories of this body's original host, so you should know that the original host was a worthless piece of trash who was incapable of cultivation."

"…"

"Even with you coming here, this body will still be a piece of junk without wealth, luck, and beauty, aren't you aware? No halo is going to appear on you because you're the protagonist or anything like that. In short, you're unable to fight the destiny of the original host's body. You need help."

Having said that, he glanced at Lu Jiu Que with a look of loathing and aloofness. It was a look that appeared to show his compa.s.sionate side, a look that said, "Other than me, no one else is willing to approach you. This is all due to me being merciful."

"…"

Could she go up to this wimpy, little kid and beat the life out of him for being so hypocritical?!

This was really… It was too loathsome! Ah, ah, ah!

Darn it, she knew she couldn't outfight him!

She needed to put up with this!

"How's the decision making coming along? Are you willing to or not?" The Great Demon King flashed that pure and harmless smile again.

Pressured by the intense debate that was raging in her mind, it gave Lu Jiu Que great pain to force her words through gritted teeth. "Yes, I am!"

By daring to strike a deal with the Great Demon King, she might have been a tad too gutsy!

But this opportunity was hard to come by. She had to grasp it firmly!

The Great Demon King smiled, satisfied. With a light movement of his feet, he suddenly closed in on her. A cool and holy aura surged towards her in an overwhelming wave, and it seemed that it could wash out even the dirt in one's heart. This left Lu Jiu Que in a daze.

He bit his fingertip until it bled, then he smeared that bright red blood between her brows. His petal-like lips opened and closed, and an ancient incantation flowed out from them. The sound of it was melodious and rhythmic, beautiful and moving…

It was just a pity that she simply did not understand!

When Lu Jiu Que realized that she could understand what she was listening to, the words caused a tightening feeling in her chest.

"…I voluntarily offer my blood, soul, and organs, and pray for the emperor to personally come and bless me…"
