Gu Yan didn't move or resist, he looked at Qin Yao calmly, "Do you dare?"
Qin Yao's knife-like eyes fell on Gu Yan's face, his hand didn't continue to tighten, nor did he let go, just holding Gu Yan's throat like this.
"Kill me, and your him will never come back."
"It doesn't matter whether I am a monster or a human, no matter what I become. You have no other choice." Gu Yan said.
Qin Yao's eyes were cold, "So you have nothing to fear."
Gu Yan stopped talking.
"It seems that you don't know me well enough." Qin Yao grinned, but his eyes were extremely cold, "I will give you a last warning, don't try to deceive me again."
"There are many ways to deal with you without killing you. Don't regret it. Don't forget, you are just a monster now. You are nothing if you have no memory, and now... what I hate the most are monsters."
"Honestly, I don't mind following you, but if you want to play tricks, think about the consequences first."
Gu Yan looked at him expressionlessly, then slowly closed his eyes without saying a word.
Sometimes silence is also a kind of resistance, even more powerful than barking teeth and claws. Besides... maybe he should change his strategy. Trapped, that was absolutely unbearable for him. In the past, there were no precedents for humans to enslave monsters. Human monks have always been good at various traps and spells.
Although he knew that Qin Yao would not hurt him, he still didn't want to lose his freedom. Although he was angry, he had to admit that Qin Yao's threat was still useful. At least he doesn't want to take the risk now.
Qin Yao slowly let go of his hand, the sternness in his eyes gradually faded, and he returned to calm.
"You go, think about what I said today."
Gu Yan glanced at him quickly, turned around without hesitation, opened the car door and walked out.
Qin Yao watched Gu Yan leave, but Gu Yan never looked back, walking steadily and decisively. He seemed to have vaguely seen the past. That time when he was standing at the door of the Spirit Sword Gate, that person also resolutely left without looking back.
He didn't dare to call, chase after, or make a sound. They probably had a mutual understanding, and they were afraid that if they turned around, they wouldn't be able to leave again.
But this time... He forced the man away with ruthless words, and he still didn't look back, only disgust was left in his heart.
That's right, even he himself hates himself like this.
It wasn't until Gu Yan's back completely disappeared that Qin Yao thumped the steering wheel heavily, and the breath in his whole body seemed to fade instantly.
This kind of Gu Yan reminds him every moment of his past mistakes, his past cowardice, and his past ugly heart. The saddest thing is that he is willing to use everything to make up, but the person who wants to make up is no longer needed.
…
Gu Yan touched his neck, thoughtful. At that moment... He thought that Qin Yao might really kill him. But after thinking about it later, he felt that Qin Yao would not do this, Qin Yao could not be willing to take such a risk, he could not afford to lose it.
It's just that the strength of Qin Yao's hand and the ruthless look in his eyes don't seem to be acting... Gu Yan couldn't tell for a while whether Qin Yao's words were true or not, which would greatly affect his decision... Now Qin Yao, he couldn't understand more and more.
Forget it, I'd rather believe what I have than what I don't have. Instead of risking everything on Qin Yao's soft heart, it is better to think about what to do now. It seems that Qin Yao can't use it anymore, who knows how far he will go...
I thought it was a good chess piece, but I didn't know it was a time bomb.
What a hassle.
Gu Yan stepped out of the elevator and took out the key to open the door. The moment the door opened, his eyes suddenly became sharp. The smell of blood was very faint, but it couldn't be concealed from his nose. "Come out!" He shouted in a low voice.
"My lord, it's me!" Tongtong hurriedly jumped out from the corner, she was completely dirty, without an arm, and looked at Gu Yan pitifully while holding her severed arm.
Seeing this, Gu Yan frowned, "What's going on?"
"My lord, you have to save us. There is a human monk who is so powerful. He killed many of us. We scattered and fled, and we don't know if the others escaped. Huh..." Tongtong's eyes were red.
Gu Yan took a deep breath, and his tone eased, "Tell me slowly, what kind of person is it?"
"Me too, I didn't see it clearly, his movements are too fast...it's a man." Tongtong pouted and thought for a while, "Ah... I remembered, the colors of his two eyes are different, one dark and one shallow , I only glanced at it, but I was particularly impressed. We are not his opponents at all... "
With a 'click' sound, the key in Gu Yan's hand was broken into several pieces.
"Big, my lord..." Tongtong took a few steps back in fear, Gu Yan's current expression looked too cold and hideous.
"How did he find you?" Gu Yan said slowly.
"I don't know, we've been hiding very well, and we haven't taken any action recently." Tong Tong looked terrified and frightened.
Gu Yan sneered, this is the warning Qin Yao gave him - all your actions are under my nose, there is nothing to hide, and I can easily destroy them. It's no wonder that there was no target before, but now that his identity is confirmed, with Qin Yao's power in the human world, it's easy to find out his details.
His every move could not escape Qin Yao's eyes, Gu Yan's eyes were dark, and he said decisively: "From now on, you don't want to contact me anymore."
"Ah?" Tongtong looked at Gu Yan in surprise.
"All of you leave Haiyun City immediately and go to different places. The farther you are from here, the better." Gu Yan said, "Don't call me either, I won't give you any support in the future, everything depends on you Be careful yourself, don't look for me until the magic circle is rebuilt. If there is something really important, use blood to sacrifice the sound transmission circle, and don't use human tools."
The world is so big, he still doesn't believe that Qin Yao can cover the sky with one hand.
Although Tongtong was puzzled, she didn't dare to question Gu Yan's decision, so she nodded, "I see."
"Let's go now, tell the other monsters that they will not be by my side in the future, and they should be more careful. Those humans are not necessarily so simple. Don't overturn the boat in the gutter. Before the passage opens—we are the prey." Gu Yan looked serious.
Tongtong looked shocked, but still nodded heavily, with a worried look on her face. "I'm leaving."
"Go." Gu Yan said.
Tongtong turned around and jumped out, quickly disappearing into the night.
Gu Yan sighed inaudibly, and a cold look flashed in his eyes.
The next day, Xu Ming came over early in the morning.
Gu Yan saw Xu Ming's uneasiness and haste, and asked directly: "What's wrong?"
"It's about the resort." Xu Ming said, "Didn't something happen a few days ago? It was destroyed in such a mess, it was like being struck by lightning. I was planning to find a builder to renovate it, but suddenly A troop came and said what happened there involved state secrets, so it was blocked without further ado, and now even I can’t get in.”
Gu Yan's expression was calm, "Then you don't want to go."
Xu Ming stared at Gu Yan, "Aren't you in a hurry? You spent so much money to buy it, and your property is written in black and white. If you say it is blocked, it will be blocked. Do you expect those people to return the money to you?"
Gu Yan smiled, "Probably not."
"Then you still pretend to be fine?! It's too much!" Xu Ming said angrily.
Gu Yan raised his hand to stop him, "It's not a big deal." He didn't intend to take the places that had already been exposed, and Qin Yao did show mercy and just took away the villa. If he really wants to deal with him, as long as he doesn't help him cover up his identity, he will have difficulty moving a single step in human society.
In the end, whether it is taking away the villa or killing some of his subordinates, in Qin Yao's own words, it's just causing him some trouble, and it's no big deal.
It's not a big deal, but it's just the beginning.
What Qin Yao wants to express is that he is indeed capable of doing some things, and since he revealed his identity, he has been a knife and I have been a fish.
Gu Yan chuckled, but it was not that simple to think of him as fish.
Gu Yan doesn't plan to go to Qin Yao now, as Qin Yao said, he is a monster now through and through, and he is not willing to take himself as the price. It is estimated that Qin Yao will not believe it if he seeks peace now. I am too lazy to do it. It's better to keep the same and respond to all changes, besides, those monsters can do other things, as long as I involve Qin Yao, I can be regarded as gaining time.
Thinking about this, Gu Yan was so relaxed, he didn't worry about anything, he didn't care about anything.
He is like an ordinary human being, occasionally rushing to catch up on announcements, watching movies and going out to eat when he has nothing to do.
After a few days like this, Qin Yao really came to look for him.
Gu Yan was not surprised at all. After all, he was indeed confident. As long as it was not too much, he was sure that Qin Yao would not dare to do anything to him.
He happened to be eating out that day, and when he saw Qin Yao coming, he politely asked the waiter to add a pair of bowls and chopsticks.
Qin Yao lowered his head and looked at the food in front of Gu Yan. Two or three items looked exquisite and delicious. He had already eaten half of them. A sarcasm flashed in Qin Yao's eyes, "Can you eat these?"
"Why can't you eat it?" Gu Yan raised his eyes, "Although it is not nutritious, and it is not as delicious as human beings, it is much more delicious than the flesh and blood of monsters."
"Then how many humans did you eat? There are delicious humans everywhere, why bother to pretend to eat this kind of food." Qin Yao looked at Gu Yan coldly.
Gu Yan smiled, "I'm ashamed to say, I haven't tasted human beings a few times in the world, and it's all thanks to you. If you make me eat something, I still have to worry about it. If I don't put on a show, I will be discovered long ago."
"Heh..." Qin Yao chuckled, apparently not believing it.
"So you should be able to understand my mood." Gu Yan said to himself, with a smile that didn't reach his eyes, "Although human beings are everywhere, they can't do whatever they want, not only to beware of you human practitioners chasing and killing , but also carefully disguising identity. For example, that time you handed me a glass of spirit wine, and I knew that the spirit wine was piercing my intestines, but I still drank it expressionlessly, because I couldn't be discovered by you."
Gu Yan leaned back and smiled slightly, "I hope you don't think I'm trying to influence you again, I'm just telling the truth. I like the world very much, but as long as we don't make this place ours for a day, no matter how strong we are , is just the prey of human beings. Just like last time, it will be driven to extinction by human beings in the end."
"This is a life-and-death struggle, there is no third choice."
Qin Yao looked at Gu Yan with a cold face, showing no emotion, and slowly tightened his hands under the table.
"As long as you don't eat people and don't mess around, I can keep you safe." After a while, Qin Yao finally spoke.
Gu Yan laughed loudly. He laughed for a long time before he said, "Let me use an analogy. Letting monsters stop eating people is the same as making people stop eating meat. No... it's even more excessive. It's almost the same as not eating or drinking." Same, but delicious food is everywhere around me. So, you want me to be a majestic high-level monster, come to the world full of delicious food, and live like an ascetic? Are you really kidding? Do you know how hard it is, I might as well go to an uninhabited mountain and stay there, at least I can suffer less if I don’t see humans..."
Qin Yao had a cold face.
Gu Yan tapped on the table lightly, slowly put away the banter in his eyes, and stared straight at Qin Yao with a cold voice. "Or, are you going to tame me and take care of me like a human slave? In this way, no one will touch a non-threatening monster. Besides, this monster has such a powerful master, of course - very safe gone."
