Chapter 86

Mo Jiu Shao realized that this person in front of him had no idea.

But it was inevitable. Even if most people in the demon realm knew that Xie Qian Lan had three demonic beasts, this Beast of Charm that was able to transform at will and lure people in. However, they had no idea that its most fundamental use was to attach to a host like a parasite.

Even though Shen Shui Yan's cultivation was very high, it wasn't surprising that he wouldn't know since he had been in the human world for so long.

On the other hand, Shen Shui Yan who heard this narrowed his eyes. "What's going on?" Of course, he immediately understood that this had something to do with Xie Qian Lan.

Mo Jiu Shao sighed and slowly began, "Xie Qian Lan has attached the Beast of Charm to him, which makes the host constantly tormented by lust. Also, the Beast of Charm only reacts to its master. Besides Xie Qian Lan, no one else can possibly satisfy it."

Shen Shui Yan froze.

Mo Jiu Shao looked at him again and said, "The parasite has been inside of his body for a very long time, and I must say he truly has amazing willpower to last this long. If it were any ordinary person, they would definitely have gone insane."

Shen Shui Yan felt his ears buzzing. "So you're saying that Xie Qian Lan..."

Mo Jiu Shao was silent for a moment before continuing, "He has never used the Beast of Charm to control anyone else, so it's clear that this person is someone he wants but can't hope to get."

"Someone he wants but can't get..." Shen Shui Yan murmured. Soon, a layer of frost covered his face and he pursed his lips before sneering. "Don't joke with me. Shen Yun loves him. He's all he thinks about."

That was something Shen Yun personally told him. He told him that countless times, and he had also heard it countless times. He heard it so many times that he wished he could just carve out his heart and get rid of the traces of the man who marked him so deeply!

Mo Jiu Shao frowned. "That is not possible."

Shen Shui Yan looked at him.

Mo Jiu Shao continued, "If this Mr. Shen truly loved Xie Qian Lan, then the Beast of Charm will have no effect at all, nor would it be able to torment him. Only when there is a person he deeply loves within his heart, someone that was not Xie Qian Lan, would the Beast of Charm torture him without rest, forcing him to the point where he can't be without Xie Qian Lan."

Shen Shui Yan was completely stunned.

Of course, Mo Jiu Shao understood Xie Qian Lan very well. Just a quick glance at him and he was able to figure him out. "Was Mr. Shen your lover before meeting Xie Qian Lan?"

He couldn't say he was his father. Shen Shui Yan remembered the past very well. He remembered the day he met Ah Yun and remembered each and every night he spent in the Heaven's Rain Palace. He remembered all the nice things he did for him, all his love and care, and he also remembered what Ah Yun told him the day he left the Heaven's Rain Palace. You and I are the only ones we need in this palace.

On that day, Shen Shui Yan was so happy that he couldn't help himself. He sent him off and said to him, "I'll wait for you."

Ah Yun responded, "Yeah."

Shen Shui Yan thought that this was a promise, and so he didn't sleep all of that night. He kept thinking about him, and his need to monopolize him was completely awakened. This obsession began to ferment and rise before it finally grew out of control.

But...what happened after that?

Xie Qian Lan came, and Ah Yun who had already belonged to him fell in love with someone else.

Shen Shui Yan never understood what love was, just like how he couldn't understand why he was so obsessed with Ah Yun. He also had no idea why Ah Yun who treated him so well could fall for anyone else.

Love, was it a precious thing or a cheap one?

If it was precious, then why did Ah Yun just toss it away so easily? And if it was cheap, then why was he so devoted to Xie Qian Lan until his death?

Shen Shui Yan couldn't figure it well, and that's why he'll never be able to understand this.

And he didn't want to understand it either. He wanted Ah Yun, he wanted to obtain him. If he had him, then nothing else mattered at all.

But he couldn't do it...He imprisoned him, bound him, and made it so he could see nobody but him, to have nobody but him, and to feel nobody but him. But...he still couldn't be the only one in his mind.

Xie Qian Lan was like a thorn in his heart. A constant reminder that he didn't own Ah Yun, that he didn't have everything under his control.

The hollowness began at his fingers, spreading all the way down his palm before seeping into his heart from his bloodline, embedding itself deep in the marrow of his bones, tormenting him without end.

But now...someone told him.

Ah Yun didn't like Xie Qian Lan, he was just forced to need him.

There was a person in Ah Yun's heart, a person he loved deeply and unable to let go, and that was why he continued to be tormented.

Who did Ah Yun love?

When he thought about this, the answer that gradually became clear in his mind caused his body to be overtaken by a piercing, choking pain.

Shen Shui Yan shook his head. "That's not possible. There's no way he likes me. He...said it many times. He told me many times that he didn't like me."

Mo Jiu Shao's eyes flickered and he said, "Do you really think he still has the qualifications to tell you he likes you with the Beast of Charm latching onto him?"

Shen Shui Yan suddenly looked up at him.

Mo Jiu Shao muttered, "He can't leave Xie Qian Lan. Only Xie Qian Lan can satisfy his body and he can't even offer you his loyalty. How do you think a man could ever dare to tell you his feelings if he can't even offer you the most basic thing in a relationship?"

Shen Shui Yan listened seriously at his each and every word, but he was almost unable to comprehend the meaning of that sentence.

"Why would he push me away if he likes me? If he loved me, then he wouldn't have betrayed me, abandoned me, and constantly thought about leaving me!"

"It's because he truly loves you." Mo Jiu Shao looked back at him, admiring the youth's downcast expression. He said, "It's because he loves you that he doesn't want you to sink in deeper. That's why he hopes that you can forget him, so he can watch you obtain happiness once you finally let go."

He paused for a moment and glanced at the frail man before continuing, "And it's because of how deep his love is for you that when he finally knows you do not love him, he chose to die out of pain."

Shen Shui Yan's dark eyes were filled with disbelief. He didn't make a single sound, but his reaction revealed everything.

That's impossible! How could that be? Could he really have had Ah Yun this whole time? So everything he did...He wasn't trying to get Ah Yun, he was pushing him further and further away.

Mo Jiu Shao's lips curled up but it quickly disappeared when he began again, "You'll find out the truth once you manage to get rid of the Beast of Charm."

Shen Shui Yan froze. Unexpectedly, he didn't say anything.

Mo Jiu Shao knew what he was thinking. He had a gentle look in his eyes, but upon closer inspection, the color of his pale grey irises deepened. He didn't expect to encounter something so interesting as soon as he arrived in the human realm.

One of them was the person Xie Qian Lan wanted to obtain but failed to.

Another was a man who did something irreparable to someone who loved him with all his heart.

Hm, not bad.

Mo Jiu Shao looked seriously at Shen Shui Yan and slowly said, "The Beast of Charm won't let go of Mr. Shen even if you kill Xie Qian Lan. And, with how long I've known him, I know he'll never take the initiative to take the Beast of Charm back. But, I can help you get rid of it."

"Only," Mo Jiu Shao spoke lightly, "there is a risk."
