Killing The Same Person Every Time Chapter 12.

In the blink of an eye, five years pa.s.sed. Bu Bai grew from an adolescent teenager to a mature young man. His originally good looks became even more dazzling and refined under the tempering of the years, making it difficult for people to look directly at his face.

Five years cannot be considered a short period of time. These five years were enough for Yan Shu to gather sufficient  strength to attack the devil sect. It also gave him an ample amount of time to grow into a mature leader. Bu Bai listened  to his subordinate's report of Yan Shu's recent situation with a faint smile. It should be time for him to return now. KrEhU4

It's time for him to take revenge for the humiliation of that year.

Over the past few years, Bu Bai managed to dismiss almost all of his male pets. Now, the only one remaining was Lu Yi. He had once asked Lu Yi why he did not leave with the others. At that time, Lu Yi had looked at him quietly with no resentment in his eyes. Unexpectedly, he had never faced Bu Bai with the same hostility that all the others displayed. He said, “I was originally born in a brothel. I'd rather concentrate on serving master than go back to selling myself to random people on the street for a little bit of change At least you won't abandon me for no reason.”

“I won't?” Bu Bai was somewhat surprised.

“You won't.” Lu Yi looked at him firmly. Bu Bai did not understand where his confidence came from, but it was comforting nonetheless. Finally, there was someone who could understand him a little, yet the one that they understood was not the real him. This kind of feeling was indeed ironically bitter.   9ZY1dX

Lu Yi had always wanted to fulfill his duties as a male pet, since he needed the relations.h.i.+p to consolidate his position. However, Bu Bai was reluctant to do so. He'd always intentionally or unintentionally keep a proper distance. Even the so-called 'serving in the bedroom' was only chatting under the blankets. In the past, he did not believe that the sect master could ever have any real feelings for another person, but now it was impossible for him to not believe it. He had personally seen the man being proud during the day and holding the wine jar while crying alone at night.

“Master.” Lu Yi wrapped his arm around Bu Bai's neck and breathed ambiguously at his sensitive spot. Not receiving the usual refusal he took advantage of this and advanced a step further, wanting to take a mile after gaining an inch.

“Lu Yi, you can leave first this time.” Bu Bai said as he grabbed the approaching hands that were eager for some action.

“Will you leave?” asked the Lu Yi. p1ea2T

“I will.” Bu Bai said. His wet eyes were filled with so much sadness that it made the heart squeeze.

“Then I will accompany Master.”

Just as he finished speaking, he felt a sharp pain on his neck and slid down uncontrollably along Bu Bai's body.

“Take him away.” Bu Bai handed the man in his arms to his subordinates, “and don't come back.” 6MGSdt

The man in black, however, did not move. He silently looked at the sect master for a moment and for the first time in his life overstepped his boundaries: “Sect Master won't you be following us?”

t/n: this may have not been translated clearly before but Bu Bai is something like the leader of the devil/demonic/evil sect. It isn't too clear cause I didn't read the raws of the prev. chapters lol

“I'll leave soon. You guys escape through the secret pa.s.sage first. There's no one in Jiang Hu who can catch me if I want to run. I won't die so easily; wait for me to bring you back for revenge." Bu Bai rarely explains so patiently or looks at his so subordinates so warmly.

After the last person had left, and Bu Bai sat alone on the throne, waiting quietly for Yan Shu's arrival. He was still human, and didn't entertain forcing everyone else to accompany him to the grave. If these people, who are controlled by their cannon fodder destiny, can escape the fate of being killed by the protagonist, then they will no longer be controlled by the plot and can decide their own futures. This can count as Bu Bai's way of compensating them for putting up with his wayward behaviour for so long. ZPL5B
