Chapter 2170 - 2159: Illusion Technique

"Hua Tiandu, can you stop being foolish? If I didn’t tell the Demon God Sect about the news of those two protectors, do you think they’d negotiate cooperation with me? It’s just some bargaining chip, and besides, their deaths don’t harm us at all. Do you think it’s worth fighting with me here over two smelly monks?"

"Whether it’s worth it is my business, not related to you one bit. Do you know how important those two protectors are to our Holy Hall? Do you know? Beiming Yu will definitely investigate this, and by then, they’ll suspect me. Are you trying to get me killed!"

Hua Tiandu’s emotions were growing more uncontrollable. Initially, she promised to keep everything secret. He had dismissed people from the Holy Hall, thinking Cang Jinyun had another plan, but his own ignorance led to the deaths of those two protectors.

"For two smelly monks, if Beiming Yu really means harm against you, do you think it’s worth staying in the Holy Hall any longer? When even brothers can’t be trusted, it shows she doesn’t care about you at all." Cang Jinyun slowly stood up, wiping away the blood from her lip.

"Hmph, I’ve pit people against themselves. If it were you, would you still trust me? You’re not unaware of how smart Beiming Yu is; you’re just pushing me into the fire pit!"

"That’s better than staying in the Holy Hall for nothing. In Beiming Yu’s eyes, you’re just a dog. In Lin Zifeng’s eyes, you’re merely a dog being used — a man slightly more significant than a dog. Do you think they’d treat you well?

I shared the news with the Demon God Sect just to build a relationship. If we have no sincerity, will they help us? Will they cooperate with us?

Don’t forget, we had promises earlier. Our current target is the Holy Hall. Nobody knows better than you how strong the Holy Hall is. So we need to draw hatred toward it — the more, the better — so that when the Holy Hall acts, all forces will stand out to restrain it. Think about it; relying solely on our strength wouldn’t shake the Holy Hall.

We must leverage others’ power." Cang Jinyun almost shouted.

"But... but I..."

Hua Tiandu began to regret working with Cang Jinyun because he had gained nothing but losses since their cooperation.

Moreover, having accompanied the Holy Hall’s growth, what would become of him if the Hall suddenly fell one day?

"Are you regretting it now? Hmph, a mature man hesitating like this, don’t you find it embarrassing?" Cang Jinyun coldly mocked him.

"You just don’t understand my feelings for the Holy Hall. This time, you’ve pit those two protectors against themselves. Next time, I can’t be sure you won’t do the same to me." Speaking of this, Hua Tiandu’s eyes suddenly turned cold. Considering Cang Jinyun’s ruthless tactics, she’s not a good person.

"What a joke; if I wanted you gone, I would have done so when Lin Zifeng was around. Don’t forget, we’ve been intimate more than once."

"You!" Hua Tiandu’s weakness; every time she brought up intimacy, he felt displeased.

"Hua Tiandu, don’t forget, Lin Zifeng left you nothing even at his death. Is it necessary to consider him wholeheartedly? Your position in the Holy Hall is dwindling; can you compare with Black Hawk or Bu Chen? You just fought alongside them, watched them reign, merely guarding the world. Why bother?

A man’s ambitions lie far and wide, not merely sacrificing for others. I understand your bond with them, but it has to be worth it. You see them as brothers, but when did they see you the same way? Don’t blame me for being wordy; the onlooker sees more than the participant. I see much clearer than you." Cang Jinyun laughed coldly.

Hua Tiandu fell silent, lowering his usually proud head. At this moment, he was also conflicted, trying to calm himself.

Opposite him, Cang Jinyun sneered while watching him. Soon, Hua Tiandu smelled a fragrant scent.

Thinking it was Cang Jinyun’s body fragrance, he didn’t care much.

But... as he raised his head afterward, he found Cang Jinyun was naked.

In reality, all of Cang Jinyun’s clothes were intact. He saw her fingers swaying before his eyes.

Under the influence of the rich fragrance, Hua Tiandu’s mind gradually weakened, and he clearly saw Cang Jinyun leading him to the bed, everything feeling so real...

This fragrance was a type of magical grass Cang Jinyun brought from Fusang. Once ignited and combined with the Onmyoji’s Illusion Technique, it could hypnotize or control the opponent.

It caused the controlled to lose reason and created massive hallucinations.

"Do you think someone pathetic like you deserves to be with me? Even your Young Master Lin couldn’t escape my Illusion Technique. Indeed, men are all the same." Cang Jinyun coldly laughed.

Remember when Lin Zifeng was in Fusang, he smelled a strange scent one night and inexplicably ended up with Cang Jinyun.

Later, out of guilt, he took her into the South Heavenly Gate, not knowing that night was merely him under Cang Jinyun’s Illusion Technique, and nothing actually happened.

This was one of the most powerful Illusion Techniques among Fusang Onmyoji...

After the Illusion Technique ended, Hua Tiandu lying on the bed felt full of remorse. He had fallen yet again, unbeknownst that it was merely Cang Jinyun’s illusion.

The deeper Hua Tiandu was lost, the more Cang Jinyun gained. She wanted much more than just the Holy Hall; she aimed to unite all Huaxia forces, causing chaos, directing all attention at the Holy Hall. After their battle of life and death, Cang Jinyun would be the one in control.

In her eyes, Hua Tiandu was nothing but a dog, useful temporarily, no longer qualified as even a dog once her plan executed. She wanted the consequences of tonight’s betrayal to fall on Hua Tiandu.

"Lin, if you were still alive, how much I’d wish for you to see the current situation." Cang Jinyun kept coldly laughing.
