This Damned Thirst for Survival

Chapter 58



Jiang Luo didn’t panic, he naturally tilted his head to the side, his eyes raised in a smile, “I’m laughing at the fact that when someone died, the Chi family didn’t shed a single tear for him.”

The dark-haired beauty had a provocative smile at the end of his eyes, his lips were red, and his black hair flowed down the side of his face, falling satin-like over his equally black toga.

The man behind him stood in the shadows, bowing his head and saying, “Their tears are dirty, but you are not.”

Chi You put one hand around Jiang Luo’s waist and held him captive. The other hand held his fingertips and gently pointed towards the coffin, the evil spirit laughed lowly, “That day you knelt before me, of all the people, you cried the most, but you cried much better than these people.”

The space between them seemed to be cut off from the rest of the world, and the light was sucked away by the evil spirits behind them. The shadows were like a black mist, wrapping around the beauty in the Tang dress.

Jiang Luo stumbles twice, his cloth shoes buried in darkness.

Chi You is bolder than he thinks.

The place is full of people from the occult world, yet he dares to show up here so brazenly. Jiang Luo thought he was going to take on the body of one of the guests or manipulate a puppet to watch the fun, but instead it was Chi You himself.

He came in person, but the Chi family did not find out. This was like a slap in the face, the greatest insult and contempt to the Chi family.

Jiang Luo’s Yu Guang glances in the direction of Feng Li.

Feng Li’s group is at the back of the guests, a short distance away. All Jiang Luo had to do was raise his voice and Chi You would be exposed to Feng Li’s eyes.

Not to mention, Jiang Luo would like to see Feng Li and Chi You fight.

He said leisurely, “Chi You, aren’t you afraid Feng Li will find out? He warned me specifically that if he saw you pestering me again, he’d have your soul scattered.”

The evil spirit laughed low, “It sounds rather like we are cheating on each other.”

“Then let him come and scatter my soul,” the evil spirit’s laugh was careless, “and I would like to see if the Heavenly Master has this skill.”

Cheating?

This description immediately sent a jolt through Jiang Luo, and his scalp began to tingle.

He hastily pulled away from the subject and sneered, “You’re pathetic, I was the only one who cried the most at the funeral, but the tears I cried for you were a lie.”

“Then I’m even more interested in seeing what you look like when you’re not lying and crying,” Chi You’s tone is sticky and charming as he holds Jiang Luo’s hand towards the weeping Chi family, “but even if you’re faking it, you’re much more moving than they are. ”

Jiang Luo looks over at the Chi family.

The over-exaggerated cries showed him a few signs of acting, and he thought to himself: no.

He also found himself crying most movingly.

The evil spirit’s spine curved slightly as he embraced the dark-haired youth, his eyes on the clan, his voice grim, “You will find a surprise if you look at them seriously.”

“Look at this man first,” Jiang Luo’s hand was held pointing to the middle-aged man in the very centre as the evil spirit compelled, “look at him with your heart.”

Jiang Luo frowned at the man.

The middle-aged man, presumably the father of the deceased, is bearded and beating his chest in a grief-stricken manner.

Gradually, however, Jiang Luo saw a layer of blackness slowly wrapping around the man’s body. The black aura and the black mist of the evil spirits were two different things, the black mist of the evil spirits was dark and thick, containing a horrible and unknown aura. The black mist of the evil spirit was dark and thick, containing a horrible and unknown aura, but the black aura of the middle-aged man was like rotten flesh, so disgusting that it made him gag.

“That’s malice,” Chi You said primly, “and the heart of an evil god can show you all this malice. You look at him more closely …… to see how disgusting he is.”

Jiang Luo’s gaze does not shift as he stares deeper into the blackness.

The man’s thoughts came from the malice: “My son is dead, his mother and I have only one child, it’s over, the next generation of the Chi family in charge will definitely not be our family’s turn, no, I have to make another effort with his mother to have a child tonight.”

“How come he’s the only one who died and it wasn’t anyone else? What a pain in the ass. His mother is now dried up and I’m not feeling it, or I’d better pick up the illegitimate son I’m keeping outside and save the effort of raising him.”

Chi You led him to the woman next to him again, “Look at this again.”

The woman, the mother of the deceased, is crying so hard she almost faints. But her right hand protects the small of her back without a trace, occasionally glancing sheepishly towards the middle-aged man.

The malice in her was equally disgustingly diabolical.

“I have to talk to his uncle tonight about what to do with this one in my belly …… always have to find a way to give birth to it, anyway it’s all Chi’s family, let him not know it’s not his son won’t it?”

Jiang Luo gives a soft laugh.

Chi You also laughed as he dropped Jiang Luo’s hand, “These cheap malices are simple and insipid, easily seen through.”

“But you are different,” Chi You buried herself in Jiang Luo’s hair, smelling the scent of the dark-haired youth’s hair, “and I can’t see you, you’re so much more fascinating than they are.”

Jiang Luo snorted, “You showed me their malice just to talk to me about this?”

“Of course not,” Chi You said, “I just saw you hiding in the corner and couldn’t resist coming out to share a surprise with you. Did this surprise impress you? If it makes you want to join me in destroying the Chi family, so much the better.”

“What kind of surprise is that?” Jiang Luo retorted with a cold smile, “I’m sorry, even if the Chi family is rotten to the core, it doesn’t have a thing to do with me.”

Chi You suddenly smiled oddly, “No, as my lover, you still have some connections.”

Jiang Luo’s eyebrows jumped, revealing a few moments of suspicion.

Chi You looked at him with this look, smothered a few laughs and said next to Jiang Luo’s ear, “I’m waiting for the day you join me and join me in destroying the Chi family.”

Jiang Luo said categorically, “No way.”

” Chi You , I don’t want to play such a boring game with you,” the dark-haired youth warned as he impatiently pulled his hair out of the evil spirit’s hands, “And you’re too close to me to touch my hair.”

The evil spirit watched with regret as the black hair fled from his grasp, “A gamble then.”

“I’ll meet you again soon,” Chi You said, “and by then, if you can guess who I am, and if you haven’t already had the idea of destroying the Chi family, then I’ll be considered a loser and I’ll tell you a …… big secret. ”

His arm around the dark haired youth tightened within his arms, almost sinking the dark haired youth into his body, the evil spirit’s interest thickened and his voice trailed off, “If you lose, that’s a shame.”

“You’re about to tell me who you really are.”

Jiang Luo’s pupils clenched as he raised his hand and elbowed back, quickly breaking free of Chi You’s embrace.

When he turned his head to look back again, the evil spirit, with an elegant smile on his face, plunged into the black mist and disappeared the next moment.

Jiang Luo’s eyes sink.

Half an hour later, he smiled coldly again.

Well, Chi You has discovered one of his biggest secrets.

This completely fuelled Jiang Luo’s desire to win.

He has to find out Chi You’s biggest secret and slam it in your face.

It was a gamble he was sure to win.

*

In the courtyard, Chi Tian, the only talented disciple in the Chi family’s side line, is being complimented by the crowd.

Chi Tian is a fat, greasy man with a big head. In front of him was his cousin’s funeral, but he was smiling from ear to ear in the background. His friends were also laughing, and someone else said, “When I first saw Chi Tian enter the third level, I saw how brutal he was, he seemed to be the only powerful person in the whole world, and before that there was talk of him being the next ruler of the Chi family, but in the end, he died at the third level.”

Chi Tian’s face quivered with crossed flesh, “It’s a pity, how Chi Hsing died.”

He laughed, his eyes smug and sinister, “Earlier, when I didn’t enter the third level, he was arrogant as hell and almost trampled me underfoot, now what?”

Now Chi Hsing is lying in a coffin and here he is strutting around watching the joke.

Luck, it’s all about luck.

There is no one else in the Chi family who is capable of doing anything, apart from him, Chi Tian, who else could there be?

The sounds of congratulation were one after another, soothing Chi Tian’s body. In the midst of all the flattering words, one man said curiously, “I heard that the disciple of the first place winner of this competition, the Feng Tian Shi, has also come to the Chi family to offer incense?”

Chi Tian didn’t like people who were better than him, and the mention of a powerful person made him feel like he was soaked in acid inside, jealous beyond belief. His smile faded, “The Heavenly Master is very generous to our family, and of course his disciples should follow.”

“I’ve heard a lot about Jiang Luo, the first place winner of the competition. The first one is about his relationship with Chi You. I heard that when Chi You was working as an assistant teacher at Bai Hua University, he had a crush on Jiang Luo for a long time and he and Jiang Luo were in love. After Chi You’s death, Jiang Luo tried to follow Chi You and martyr himself, but was stopped in the end. He said he wanted to find out who killed Chi You and avenge her death.”

” Is there really a problem with Chi You’s death? But even if there is a problem, according to Jiang Luo’s strength, he will be able to avenge Chi You sooner or later …… Hey, Chi Tian, why is your face white?”

……

After Chi Tian left in a hurry, the others dispersed. One of them slowly exited Chi Tian’s house through the back door and walked to a corner.

“I’ve already spread the news you asked me to spread, the Chi family should be discussing their countermeasures tonight and thinking of ways to deal with Jiang Luo,” the man looked up, and it was Liao Si, the corpse catcher, Liao Si sighed, “I really didn’t think you and I really didn’t think you and Jiang Luo would have this story, if I had known ……” If he had known, he wouldn’t have fallen for Jiang Luo’s body and offended Jiang Luo for Yuan Tianzhu.

This is, after all, the master’s lover.

As a result, now, it’s a loss and a loss of life. A puppet could have been used for such a trivial matter of spreading news. Instead, his master asked him to do it himself, and how Liao Si thought, it was because he had offended Jiang Luo that his master had given him this punishment.

With Liao Si’s broken body, he had flown from Xiangxi to here and was already about half dead.

But the owner is really tough too.

Just to force Jiang Luo to stand with him, Jiang Luo was pushed into the limelight. You know, it wasn’t just the Chi family who killed their master …… Jiang Luo wanted to avenge his master’s death and word got out that the people who killed his master were going to sit up and take notice.

Even if Jiang Luo is not strong enough to shake them, they will make the first move just in case.

Liao Si was tsking and sighing when he suddenly had an epiphany, he clenched his fist and clapped his hands, “Master, are you trying to save the girl?”

“A hero to the rescue?” Out of the shadows, a pair of leather shoes crept in and Chi You’s voice rang out of nowhere, “No, Liao Si, you underestimate him.”

“He doesn’t need anyone to save, but ……”

Jiang Luo is one of the people Chi You rarely looks at directly.

He has grown in leaps and bounds, undaunted by Chi You, and has even made Chi You suffer on several occasions. The experience is so new and strange that every time he meets Jiang Luo, it instantly ignites Chi You’s excitement.

Jiang Luo, however, is clearly not a doddering weed waiting for someone to come and rescue him.

But it is Liao Si’s words that provoke Chi You’s thoughts of desire. Pushing Jiang Luo to the limit, exposing him to life and death, inspiring malice and sending him to the same hell as Chi You.

Then Chi You reappears and slowly saves him.

At that point, Chi You will be able to enjoy both the wretchedness of the dark-haired young man and the look on Jiang Luo’s face when he is rescued.

It would be a look of anger and humiliation, not wanting to ask for help but having to ask for it. There must be a look on that face that Chi You would love to see.

The evil spirit whispered, “That seems like a good suggestion.”

Chi You thought about that scene, he narrowed his eyes and said, ” Liao Si , you go to Qi’s house again.”

*

Jiang Luo’s eyes danced several times on the way back from the funeral.

His teeth itch at the thought of Chi You’s face at the funeral, but Chi You’s careless attitude towards Feng Li makes him a little wary.

These few months together were enough for Jiang Luo to see how strong Feng Li is.

He had previously wondered if Feng Li in the original book had been controlled by Chi You. But on second thought, it was a possibility, but the odds were not good.

Feng Li is, after all, the ceiling of power in the metaphysical world, and there are few people alive who can compete with him. Not to mention the fact that Feng Li represents Tian Shifu and has the Old Heavenly Master behind him, Chi You will only find it more difficult to control Feng Li.

The more he became entangled with Chi You, the more Jiang Luo couldn’t believe how the Chi You in the original text had become a subject.

Doing 0 for love?

……

Jiang Luo’s brow twitched, not daring to think about it any further.

The sense of dissonance is so overwhelming that it is a little frightening.

Jiang Luo returned to school from the funeral and a little later Zhuo Zhongqiu, who smelled of alcohol, returned with the bad news that ” Qi Ye had been detained by the Qi family.”

Jiang Luo : “What do you mean?”

Zhuo Zhongqiu annoyedly threw his duck-tongue towards the coat rack, which spun twice and hung precisely on the hook, “Qi Ye’s family supposedly had something they needed Qi Ye to do and couldn’t come to school for the week. I told them Qi Ye had taken on a school assignment and they told me to speak to the school and Qi Ye couldn’t join.”

Lu Youyi said angrily, “How can they behave like this? Is it possible to take a mission when you want it and not when you don’t?”

“So I turned it down and let them talk to the school themselves,” Zhuo Zhongqiu frowned, “and I reckon I’ll end up with someone else.”

“Who can I change?”

Ye Xun glanced around and silently raised his hand, “I’ll go.”

Lu Youyi hugged him excitedly, ” Ye Xun , you really are our good brother!”

“I hear you get a lot of gossip on these shows,” Ye Xun says slowly, “and I want to hear it.”

Jiang Luo doesn’t care who he goes on a mission with, but Ye Xun is definitely better than Qi Ye, after all, his first mission in this world was with Ye Xun, ” Can Ye Xun’s dolls be brought into the show?”

Zhuo Zhongqiu : “I’ll call and ask the general director of the programme.”

Five minutes later, Zhuo Zhongqiu returned from the phone call, his face slightly cleared, “The chief director said it was okay, he had already instructed the camera crew to do their best to ignore the shots of the three of you.”

Ye Xun breathed a sigh of relief as he looked down at Xiao Fen , ” Xiao Fen , we’re going to be on the show together.”

“You sound like you’re looking forward to it?” Jiang Luo raised his eyebrows and smiled wickedly, ” Ye Xun , have you been wanting to go for a long time.”

Ye Xun holds out two fingers, leaving a gap of one centimetre, “A little.”

Jiang Luo was so cute by him.

Early the next morning, the three of them, old buddies, boarded the school bus and headed to the recording location of ‘Next Stop, Idol’.

Lu Youyi and Ye Xun were both a little uncomfortable to be involved in such a task for the first time. Jiang Luo, however, was at ease and after getting out of the car, he took the lead and entered the trainee dormitory.

Ye Xun The two men followed him closely with their luggage.

The chief director was not in a position to approach them openly, so he sent an assistant who knew his way around to bring them into the building. As soon as the assistant saw the three of them, his eyes lit up and he froze for a moment before he remembered that these three were all masters, not actual practitioners who had come to the audition.

He felt sorry for himself, but dared not delay and came up to take Jiang Luo’s luggage, “Master, I’ll take it for you.”

“No need,” Jiang Luo avoided it and smiled at his assistant, “just treat us like normal ‘practice students’.”

When he smiled, the assistant could barely look away. Lu Youyi said bashfully from the back, “Yes, you mustn’t reveal our identities.”

These three men, one dazzling, beautiful and flamboyant. One is a slender, beautiful boy, and another is a fit, athletic, handsome man, three different styles, each extremely striking.

If they were really involved in the talent show, then they could definitely go all the way. The assistant sighed, unable to breathe at the thought of cutting such traffic-attracting trio of faces from the screen.

He peeked at them, “Have you three come up with an alias yet?”

“It’s done,” Jiang Luo said casually, “and I’ll give you the name later.”

Jiang Luo and the three of them looked the place over hastily and saw nothing wrong for the time being. Ye Xun said, “Where is the studio where the assistant director died?”

The assistant handed him the key to the studio and a copy of the layout, “That studio is now boarded up, so you can go in when no one is around.”

It was lunch break and the practitioners were taking a break. While the assistant was leading the three masters upstairs, a trainee flew down the stairs and met them just in time.

The trainee is not very old and has a badge with the word “Sui Yun” written on it.

Sui Run, who looked like a teenager, no more than 17 or 18 years old at most, saw someone on the stairs and immediately grabbed the handrail to slow down, and the moment he saw the person, his eyes widened in shock.

“You are ……”

“These three are the new practice students who have come to fill in,” the assistant said with a proper expression, “you can get to know them later. Are you going downstairs to get something now? Go down first then.”

Sui Run nodded straight ahead and walked past the side of the stairs. After passing the three, he didn’t resist glancing back.

Those three extremely good-looking trainees not only had good-looking faces but were even taller. At this glance, the proportions are so beautiful that only the legs are left below the neck.

Especially the long-haired boy.

It wasn’t the first time Sui Run had seen a boy with long hair, but it was the first time he had seen someone so flamboyant yet heroic, living like a character that could only come out of an anime.

“OMG, what a comparison ……”

Once this face is revealed, even a flower vase can stand still and attract fans.

*

The news of the three new trainees soon spread throughout the dormitory building.

Curious trainees went to join in the fun.

One by one, they poked their heads out of the dormitories to watch and whisper.

“My goodness, they’re good looking.”

“This is the king bomb, this must be the king bomb, it’s over, it’s over, there’s only a few spots, how else is this going to make the debut.”

“I just saw it up close and it was pure vegan, really pure vegan!”

Lu Youyi was made uncomfortable by the look, “This is too enthusiastic, isn’t it?”

The assistant smiled and said, “These kids are still young and usually quite rowdy. But they are good kids, you don’t have to worry about them, just leave it to me.”

“Your dormitory is the dormitory of those three trainees, the other trainees don’t know the truth yet, our external story is that they dropped out,” the assistant lowered her voice, “Your dormitories are not together, do the three teachers think it’s okay? If not, we’ll make up a separate dormitory for you.”

“No,” Jiang Luo said, “we’ll only be here for a few days.”

The assistant showed regret and didn’t say anything more, “Okay, then I’ll show you all to your quarters.”

Their dormitories are not together but are on the same floor. Ye Xun and Lu Youyi went into their dormitories separately and the assistant led Jiang Luo , towards the last room.

“Teacher,” the assistant looked embarrassed, “we share a dormitory with you and our first place winner of this program, Fu Wei. His temper …… is not very good, if you feel uncomfortable living in the dormitory, I will give you another one.”

Jiang Luo raises his eyebrows slightly.

As the subject of his assignment, he looked up information about Next Stop, Idol last night. Naturally, he knew who this Fu Wei was.

A veritable 1, with a fault-like vote gap to the second place trainee.

He’s a loner, he’s a drag, he always seems careless, and he’s been caught smoking and drinking more than once, but he’s good-looking enough that the worse he is, the more people like him. The people who love Fu Wei and the people who hate him make up half of the cast of Next Stop, Idol.

All in all, very personal.

The assistant opened the door to Jiang Luo’s dormitory, and Jiang Luo lifted his eyes to look into the dormitory to see Fu Wei, sitting on the top bunk with his back against the wall, writing a song on a pile of white paper.

Fu Wei’s hair is slightly longer, slightly curly black hair hanging down the sides of his temples, and he holds a freshly lit cigarette between his slender fingers, the sparks flickering as he looks down slowly and deliberately towards the door.

The tall body fills the bed and the long legs dangle almost to the middle of the lower bunk.

“Newcomer,” Fu Wei’s voice was hoarse as he stared at Jiang Luo , “good looking.”

The metallic smoky voice can catch someone’s ear at once.
