Chapter 860 Unwilling To Lose

Princess s.h.i.+rley sighed as she recalled the time she spent with Myria and Ellia in the First Layer.

The number of things she got to know and the number of things she lost and gained were plenty with them. It could be said that she now possessed a basic world view that is required to survive.

Even more, she couldn't help but shudder, that if she came to the First Layer alone, what kind of evils and sinister traps she would have fallen into? What kind of a tragic fate would she have met? She didn't find it hard to fathom because she had faced some already but was saved by Myria at all times.

If it weren't for Ellia and Myria, she knew that her life might've been miserable and wouldn't have gone the way she wanted, to say the least.

Thinking like this, she felt all the more thankful to the two of them.

"No!" Esvele yelled in confidence.

"Senior sister didn't use me because senior sister chose to save me instead of killing Schneider! Although the sect rules state that killing is prohibited, if it is known that Schneider tried to scheme against us using the master token, he would've been caught red-handed! Senior sister had the absolute advantage and had him checked! Otherwise, Schneider would not just leave like this..."

Esvele wept, "You saved me. Senior sister saved me..."

She didn't place senior sister s.h.i.+rley on a pedestal but just mentioned as it is... She believed that Princess s.h.i.+rley was righteous than any person she had ever seen.

Princess s.h.i.+rley became speechless before she sighed, not willing to change her mind anymore, "If you can understand all this, why did you agree to help Schneider? What did he promise to be able to corrupt the smart yet innocent Esvele I chose?"

Eslvele's bosoms shook as he tried to calm down.

"The blood essence of an Emperor Beast Stage Burning Phoenix, a magical beast core of a King Beast Stage Burning Phoenix, and a chance to become a direct disciple under his father, Grand Elder Valerian."

"No wonder... You would definitely find it hard to reject this deal, and all you had to do was drug me..."

Princess s.h.i.+rley giggled. She could understand that all these items could immensely bewitch any person as long as these items were extremely useful to them.

"No!"

"I didn't know that it was an aphrodisiac first! Only after I agreed did Schneider tell me that it was an aphrodisiac specially concocted to sedate senior sister s.h.i.+rley. He said after lacing the aphrodisiac, I should instantly call him. I already said that I'm not going to do it, but he threatened me with an Imagery Stone that recorded our conversation, saying that he would show it senior sister s.h.i.+rley."

"Only then did I understand that I betrayed senior sister the moment I agreed after hearing about the rewards..." Esvele sobbed, but she felt giving all these excuses made her look only worse.

Afraid that senior sister s.h.i.+rley would misunderstand, she added, "I'm not saying this to justify myself, but I want senior sister to know the course of events..."

"I see... Just like I thought." Princess s.h.i.+rley resplendently smiled, "You're still redeemable..."

'Looks like they've at least noticed that I'm stronger than the norm to reward Esvele like this...' Inwardly, she mused.

These treasures that were bribed to Esvele were better than the ones the disciples would get upon gaining the t.i.tle of a top disciple after getting results in the disciple recruitment exam or raising their strength to the top disciple level.

"Still, you're not smart enough to see through their intent, Esvele. You still lack the necessary foresight."

"What do you mean, senior sister s.h.i.+rley?" Esvele became confused.

"After Schneider obtains me, you'll be left with two options. One, you'll be framed and silenced to appease me just like Schneider offered me a while ago. Two, Schneider gets to keep us both. Do you really think that they'll let you be free after they give you all those treasures?"

Princess s.h.i.+rley shook her head, "They'll at least make you give birth to a prodigy before killing you, but that also depends whether if you have completely submitted to Schneider or not."

Esvele became pale as she looked at the ground. Hearing senior sister s.h.i.+rley's deduction, she felt that her reasoning and deduction were possible. Her body started to shake in fear.

It took her a few moments to recover.

"But, you're still young and can improve a lot. Are you willing to follow me like you first wanted to, loyally and faithfully?" Princess s.h.i.+rley asked.

Esvele's mouth went agape, and her eyes were filled with longing, "Can I?"

She had already betrayed senior sister s.h.i.+rley once.

Will she be really given another chance?

Princess s.h.i.+rley inwardly laughed, 'This has happened to me once before. At that time, I was drugged by my trusted sister but saved by my ex-fiancee. But this time, it was different. You never took action against me. If I can forgive her, why can't I forgive you?'

She calmly nodded her head.

Esvele let out tears as she kowtowed, "Esvele will never forget this favor and kindness in her life. Even if senior sister s.h.i.+rley wants me to sacrifice my life, I am not unwilling!"

"Stand up." Princess s.h.i.+rley nodded her head, "Show your willingness to be my follower and prove that you didn't betray me in the past with your actions."

"Yes!" Esvele stood up as she stood in attention, her back taut and straight.

However, Princess s.h.i.+rley's eyes twitched as she looked at that heavily bouncing bosoms. Although she was a figure-admirer herself, she couldn't help but feel jealous.

Glancing at her own bosoms, which were only half its size, it was certainly ample and curvaceous but could not compare to Esvele's bosoms. It also reminded her of a green-haired woman who possessed bosoms comparable to Esvele's.

'Does he like bigger ones? Is that why I lost?' She couldn't help but think with a pout.

'No, he isn't like that. It was me who was presumptuous and agreed to annul the marriage like a fool. If I had just kept it, he would've been mine instead...'

Esvele noticed her senior sister's gaze and became pale, 'This is bad. If senior sister s.h.i.+rley doesn't want me, it's over!'

"Senior sister! I feel jealous of your talent! You are greater in every aspect than me!"

Princess s.h.i.+rley came out of her reverie and blinked before she smiled and shook her head, "You don't need to console me. Jealousy is a common and valid emotion in every living being. You just don't need to not act on it a negative way so that you don't make your jealousy worse into envy."

Esvele blinked.

How can senior sister s.h.i.+rley speak such profound words? Her eyes sparkled with a tinge of wors.h.i.+p.

Princess s.h.i.+rley pursed her lips. It wasn't her words but Myria's words, but she didn't say anything about it.

"It's just that... I once lost to a woman like you, weaker than me yet voluptuous like a vixen..." Princess s.h.i.+rley wryly uttered, but only after she let these words out did she wonder why she brought this matter out to her junior sister. They weren't even close to begin with...

'Guess I was unwilling to lose...' She inwardly mused.

On the other hand, Esvele took a step back in shock, 'Senior sister said that she lost to a weaker woman. Then that means... It isn't a battle, but... She lost her man to a voluptuous woman... like me?'

"I..." Esvele didn't know how to or what to comment on.

It was like stepping on a killing formation no matter what she spoke.

Princess s.h.i.+rley just shook her head as she smiled and turned away before flying out of the abode.

Esvele avidly followed her, afraid that she would get left behind. She didn't know senior sister s.h.i.+rley's past or her origin, but she could tell that she was already in love with a man!
