I Have an Omen System-Chapter 92 - 90: Female Sword Immortal

Seemingly recalling something, the Female Sword Immortal’s phoenix eyes turned icy as she grit her teeth.

"I won’t allow the answers from those two scoundrels."

A screen of light suddenly appeared before Qin Xuan.

The first person was the Demon Monarch Bloodline he had just seen, Wei Qingyi.

Wei Qingyi appeared pensive, analyzing the situation with the earnestness of an emotionless machine.

"According to my research, posterior absorption of medicinal power is, in theory, twice as efficient as oral ingestion."

"Therefore, I choose to split the antidote into two portions and insert them into their rears. This would make efficient use of the antidote, and both of them could live..."

"AAAH!"

Before he could even finish, the man in scholarly robes screamed as the Female Sword Immortal sent him flying with a single slap.

The corner of Qin Xuan’s mouth twitched slightly.

’...That’s the Senior Brother Wei I know, all right.’

’What a fucking talent!’

However, the next one was even more outrageous, leaving Qin Xuan so stunned his jaw dropped, his entire worldview shattered.

A handsome man in scholarly robes appeared on the screen, completely ignoring the Female Sword Immortal before him. He declared with a straight face, "One must take fate into one’s own hands."

The man in scholarly robes gently waved a folding fan, on which one could faintly make out the debauched and absurd images of an erotic painting.

"So, I choose to coat my dick with the antidote. Whichever of them is willing to lick it gets to live..."

BANG—!

Before he could finish, the man in scholarly robes was nearly cleaved in two by the enraged Female Sword Immortal’s sword.

His fate was even more miserable than Wei Qingyi’s.

The fact that she let them both walk out of the Blood Pool alive showed that this Female Sword Immortal had a remarkably good temper.

But Qin Xuan had also more or less guessed that this Female Sword Immortal was, in all likelihood, one of the two women in the scenario.

’Here’s the question: is the Female Sword Immortal the Demon Dao Saintess, or the Senior Sister of the Righteous Path?’

Qin Xuan frowned slightly, lost in thought.

It was simple. He just had to figure out who the Female Sword Immortal was and answer in a way that would favor her.

The two lifelike images of the women before him came alive at that moment.

With poison attacking her heart and her life hanging by a thread, Senior Sister Bai Yueguang said nothing, merely gazing at him with deep affection, her tenderness like water...

The Vermilion Mole Demon Path Saintess—gorgeous on the outside, but known to the world as ruthless, merciless, and venomous—was currently curled up in a corner, trembling. Unable to see where she was, she was still crying and calling his name, as helpless as she had been in that ruined temple all those years ago.

However, the Female Sword Immortal seemed to have seen through Qin Xuan’s thoughts.

"I said, your answer must follow your heart. Do not lie to me, or else..."

The Female Sword Immortal’s long, phoenix-like eyes narrowed. Her voice turned icy as she lifted the Blood Sword and toyed with it in her hand.

A shiver ran down Qin Xuan’s spine, and the hair on his body stood on end.

It was as if the slightest mistake in his answer would lead to a graveless death!

At that moment, the ball of light in his mind suddenly flickered, and three Ancient Bamboo Sticks flew out from it.

[Top-Top Lottery: Save neither. Give an outrageous yet logical reason. The Female Sword Immortal will be enlightened, and you will obtain a Third-Grade Opportunity. Greatly auspicious!]

[Middle-Middle Draw: Save the Demon Dao Saintess. Coax the Female Sword Immortal into a good mood. Obtain a Ninth-Grade Opportunity, but incur the Female Sword Immortal’s displeasure. Neutral.]

[Middle-Lower Draw: Save the Senior Sister of the Righteous Path. A great transgression. You will be loathed by the Female Sword Immortal, who will sever your Cultivation. Inauspicious!]

A Third-Grade Opportunity!

Qin Xuan lightly clenched his fists, his gaze fervent.

Something like this had never appeared before!

But the next moment, after reading the Divination, Qin Xuan was a bit confused again.

’...An outrageous yet logical reason?’

’But no matter who he saved, the Female Sword Immortal wouldn’t be happy!’

—Wait!

As a wave of warmth spread from the Crystal Pendant on his wrist, a flash of insight suddenly struck Qin Xuan’s mind.

An answer quietly surfaced.

’Could it be... that the Demon Dao Saintess and the Senior Sister of the Righteous Path are both this Female Sword Immortal?’

’That’s it. Saving either one is the wrong choice.’

’Instead, saving neither of them must be the historical truth!’

...

The Female Sword Immortal’s red lips parted. "Have you decided? Who will you save?"

"I have."

Qin Xuan said, "Senior, I choose to keep the antidote for myself. I will save neither of them!"

Hearing this, the Female Sword Immortal’s delicate body trembled, and a subtle change appeared on her expression.

Qin Xuan happened to catch this very moment.

’The Golden Finger was right. There’s something up with this Female Sword Immortal!’

The Female Sword Immortal asked, "Why save neither?"

"An antidote that can cure any poison... why wouldn’t I keep it for myself?"

Qin Xuan shot back, his voice indifferent. "They are nothing but two beautiful skeletons.

"Since one is the Cyan Plum Witch, I would kill her, take her head, and have it sent to the Righteous Sects to be displayed for three days and three nights. If she loves me, she certainly wouldn’t blame me. This is the only way to thoroughly enrage the Demon Dao."

"The same goes for the Senior Sister of the Righteous Path. Since she was willing to plead for me, and successfully at that, it means her status in the Righteous Dao is extremely high. She must be the most dazzling new star among the righteous disciples."

"By sending her corpse to the Demon Dao, many of the young and old freaks there would surely be interested in her body. Even her corpse could be exchanged for fame and fortune, allowing me to reap both reputation and rewards within the Demon Sect."

Qin Xuan declared, "Killing multiple birds with one stone. Isn’t it wonderful!"

The Female Sword Immortal forced herself to remain calm, but her trembling voice completely exposed the turmoil in her heart. "And then?"

"Then, naturally, I would secretly instigate conflict between the Righteous and Demon Paths."

Qin Xuan continued, "Until a great war breaks out between the two paths, leaving the strong dead and the weak struggling to survive. Then I can make my move, eliminate the remaining weak, and seize the resources of both paths for myself, taking a great stride forward on my path of cultivation!"

The Female Sword Immortal murmured, "What is your goal in doing all this? Do you not like either of the two women?"

Qin Xuan shook his head. "The path of cultivation is one of deception and trickery. Today it’s either my death or theirs; tomorrow it’s their death or my injury. Where is there time for such romantic feelings? Increasing one’s strength is the only true way!"

"It’s just like the emperors of the mortal world. Fratricide is a common affair. So-called love is just a pretense. Only by using any means necessary to achieve your goals can you be the one left standing."

"Heh heh..."

A bitter smile suddenly touched the corners of the Female Sword Immortal’s lips. It was as if she were speaking to Qin Xuan, yet also muttering to herself.

"Yes, where is there time for such romantic feelings... No wonder he was able to become the Emperor of Daqian back then."

The Female Sword Immortal seemed to have reached an epiphany. She tilted her head back, her vision blurring with mist, and murmured to herself.

"But he wanted this sword his entire life. I refuse to let him have his way," the Female Sword Immortal said petulantly.

With a crisp CLACK, the Profound Iron Demon Order fell to the ground.

The Female Sword Immortal’s illusory figure dissolved into motes of starlight, disappearing between heaven and earth.

In addition to the Profound Iron Demon Order, the long, blood-red sword in the Female Sword Immortal’s hand also fell, transforming into a blood-red Talisman!

The blood-red Talisman was exceptionally exquisite, engraved with the image of a blood-colored longsword. It looked like a woman’s weapon, with a thin blade, yet the Talisman itself felt incredibly heavy in his hand.

A sudden realization dawned on Qin Xuan.

This blood-red Talisman was the Third-Grade Opportunity mentioned in the Divination!

The moment it entered his hand, a bone-chilling, icy-cold aura suddenly drilled into his body.

"My name is Chuu Hongling. He who receives my inheritance shall treat the Daqian Royal Family as a mortal enemy, to be hunted and exterminated, without rest until one side is annihilated!"

—BOOM!

The Female Sword Immortal’s cold voice suddenly echoed in Qin Xuan’s mind.

Streams of information quietly appeared before his eyes.

[Ten Thousand Forms Blood Talisman: Ranked forty-seventh on the Blood Demon Sword Talisman List. Sun, moon, stars, wind, rain, lightning, thunder, immortals, buddhas, demons, devils... The wielder can change their appearance in an instant.]

[All Things in the Universe, capable of deceiving the very heavens!]

Immediately after, a complex, blood-red Rune was imprinted deep within his mind.

At the same time, the brand of the Ten Thousand Forms Blood Talisman appeared on his Lifebound Silver Sword, which began to hum, letting out a joyous ringing.

"All Things in the Universe... the Ten Thousand Forms Blood Talisman..."

Qin Xuan’s whole body trembled.

This Ten Thousand Forms Blood Talisman was actually a Purgatory Level Nascent Soul Blood Talisman from a Nascent Soul Demon Monarch with the title "Ten Thousand Forms of Parting Sorrow." It could transform into countless forms, simulating all things between heaven and earth!

Qin Xuan tried to activate his Lifebound Longsword.

With a single thought.

The next moment, his appearance transformed into that of Wei Qingyi.

From his Cultivation to his image, even that sinister, verdant green aura was exactly the same!

"What a miraculous Blood Sword. This is the perfect tool for Demon Cultivators like us to murder and commit arson." A strange light flashed in Qin Xuan’s eyes.

’With this Blood Talisman, I can go anywhere in the future!’

’That man she mentioned must be from the Daqian Royal Family. He might have even been an emperor of Daqian.’

After receiving the inheritance of the Ten Thousand Forms Blood Talisman, Qin Xuan quickly understood.

The illusory image of the Female Sword Immortal was just a Divine Thought.

Her true self was a Nascent Soul Demon Monarch from the history of the Blood Demon Sword Sect named Chuu Hongling. By accepting her karma, he would be bound to hunt down and exterminate the Daqian Royal Family whenever he encountered them in the future.
