Lian Youyou curled her lips and smiled, clapped her hands: "Okay, I pulled you two out today so that you two can have a good talk. Let's talk here, no outsiders allowed~~~" Lian Youyou raised her arm and pointed around, "You can talk freely." Lian Youyou curled her lips and smiled, as if she was ready to sit down and listen to a crosstalk.
Duanmu Jinhong still pursed his lips and said nothing. Duanmu Qingchen looked around, but how could there be outsiders here? He looked at Duanmu Jinhong, smiled evilly, and as usual, he put his arm around Duanmu Jinhong's shoulders and said, "Third brother, you have seen it, this is Youyou, she is a goddess, you can't snatch her from me..."
"He knows it was you who did it." Lian Youyou suddenly interrupted Duanmu Qingchen and looked at Duanmu Jinhong.
Duanmu Jinhong's eyes immediately became dull, as if a huge black hole in his heart was devouring his heart, his soul, and all his reactions. He became a completely empty sculpture, like a hollow porcelain figure.
"What do I know? I know nothing." Duanmu Qingchen showed a puzzled expression.
Lian glanced at Duanmu Qingchen and said, "Don't pretend. Duanmu Jinhong colluded with a demon named Gongzihong to push you into the secret realm because they don't want you to come out again."
The expression on Duanmu Qingchen's face froze immediately. He blinked, removed all the frivolity in his body, turned to Duanmu Jinhong in boredom, scratched his head and muttered: "Why did you say it out loud... It would be better if everyone just pretended that you didn't know..."
"Stop deceiving yourself!" Duanmu Jinhong suddenly sneered, "You know everything, why are you still pretending to be a good person?! Now that everyone knows it, you can do whatever you want to me!" Duanmu Jinhong turned around with his hands spread out, facing Duanmu Qingchen coldly.
Duanmu Qingchen still faced him sideways, with one hand behind his back, slowly clenching it.
Lian Youyou smiled gently: "I admire Duanmu Jinhong very much. He is much more honest than you. But he is a little narrow-minded and ambitious."
This time, it was Duanmu Qingchen's turn to remain silent.
Duanmu Jinhong stared at Duanmu Qingchen unwillingly but fearlessly. Since Duanmu Qingchen knew everything, he was not afraid to admit it. That's right, he did everything. The worst that could happen was that he would die!
Lian Youyou crossed her legs and said, "Duanmu Qingchen~~ Duanmu Jinhong's life is in your hands now. You want him to live or die. Just say the word and I will definitely help you get rid of the roots."
Duanmu Qingchen's body suddenly froze.
Duanmu Jinhong's eyes were empty again. He was unwilling to accept this defeat. However, he accepted the fact that the winners are the kings and the losers are the bandits. He admitted that he was not as skilled as others and that Gongzi Hong could not defeat this demon girl Lian Youyou!
Duanmu Qingchen sighed and turned around: "What's the matter with death, Youyou, let the third brother go back and pretend nothing happened."
Duanmu Jinhong's mouth twitched in a sneer as he listened to Duanmu Qingchen's words.
Duanmu Qingchen turned around and hugged Duanmu Jinhong without looking at him: "We are still brothers outside..."
“Shut up!” Suddenly, Duanmu Jinhong forcefully pushed him away. His inner resentment and hatred all overflowed into his eyes, which instantly turned red, like a fierce ghost full of violence and resentment. “Stop being hypocritical! Stop using false brotherhood to whitewash our relationship! I never considered you a brother! I hate you! I hate my father! How am I inferior to you! Just because I was born half a moment later than you, you became the prince? You can inherit the throne! Why?! Why—”
Duanmu Jinhong roared at Duanmu Qingchen, grabbed his collar tightly, and glared at him fiercely with his bloodshot eyes: "Why do I lose every time! Why—Do you know what is the most hateful thing about you? You still look disdainful and indifferent to the throne! If you really don’t want it, give it to me! Give it to me—"
Duanmu Qingchen turned his head away, his face showing silence and a hint of anger. He suddenly pushed Duanmu Jinhong away and stared at him angrily.
"Humph, you finally can't pretend anymore, right, right!" Duanmu Jinhong looked at Duanmu Qingchen with a sneer.
Duanmu Qingchen gritted his teeth and said angrily: "Look at you! You are like this! You said more today than you have in your entire life! You are just holding it back! That's why you are so dark! Can I control myself from coming out half a moment earlier than you?! Do you care so much about the throne?! I will give it to you! Take it!"
"Okay! Give it to me!"
"You take it!"
"How can I take it when you're still alive?! You're just talking nonsense! You're just showing off!"
"I can give it to you! I'll give it to you when I'm in the top position!"
"Do you think I will believe it?"
"How can you trust me?"
"Enough!" Lian Youyou suddenly shouted, glancing at the two brothers who were loving and hating each other. The two were still staring at each other.
Lian Youyou snorted softly, stood up, crossed her arms and looked at the two of them: "Do you... want to change your fate?"
They were both startled at the same time and looked at Lian Youyou in confusion.
Lian Youyou pointed at Duanmu Jinhong and said, "You want to be the emperor, you want to be free and unrestrained..." Lian Youyou pointed at Duanmu Qingchen and said, "It's simple. You be him and he be you, isn't that enough?!" Lian Youyou crossed her fingers in front of her and pointed at the two brothers again.
"Youyou, what do you mean by this?" Duanmu Qingchen was confused by what Lian Youyou said. What did you do to him and he does to you mean
Lian Youyou withdrew her hand, and her right hand dropped the black and white entangled cause and effect ring, and held it up in front of the two people: "This is called the cause and effect ring, cause and effect, cause and effect cycle, used on people, you can exchange your identities with each other. When your identities are exchanged, your fate will naturally be exchanged. You..." Lian Youyou pointed at Duanmu Jinhong's face, "and became Duanmu Qingchen, to be your emperor..."
Duanmu Jinhong was stunned for a moment, staring blankly at Lian Youyou.
Lian Youyou had already pointed at Duanmu Qingchen's face: "And you will become Duanmu Jinhong, free and unfettered, without the constraints of the throne anymore."
Duanmu Qingchen was also stunned, and stood there blankly like Duanmu Jinhong.
Lian Youyou retracted her fingers and smiled evilly, "To put it simply, it's a soul swap. But in normal soul swaps, the body will actually reject the other soul, and usually the life will not last long. Moreover, the soul swap does not change the life, so the original life will remain the same even if the soul is swapped. Because fate follows the soul. But mine is different. I'll swap your fate together with yours. The body will accommodate your souls after the swap, and you won't have to worry about anything."
Duanmu Qingchen and Duanmu Jinhong were still staring at Lian Youyou blankly.
Lian Youyou turned the Ring of Destiny in her hand: "After the Ring of Destiny exchanges your fate, there will be a twin relationship between you, that is, if you..." Lian Youyou pointed at Duanmu Jinhong, "Kill him..." Lian Youyou pointed at Duanmu Qingchen, her smile became colder, and she glanced back at Duanmu Jinhong, "You will die too."
Duanmu Jinhong's eyes immediately widened. (To be continued)
