Chapter 1491: A chance to become a headless horseman

Song Shuhang said, “Senior Chu, show mercy!”

If Pavilion Master Chu Two were to send a palm of hers at him... he was afraid that he might directly be turned into bloody paste, without having the chance to resurrect. After all, Pavilion Master Chu Two was an Immortal.

Moreover, his Resurrection Gold Coins were still on cooldown.

After a Resurrection Gold Coin was used, there was a 10-day-long cooldown before another gold coin could be used.

He couldn’t afford to die at this moment.

“Well, then what do you know?” Pavilion Master Chu Two calmly said. “If you don’t know anything, then don’t come out. I’m serious.”

Song Shuhang said, “Although I don’t know where the Almighty Merchant is, I have the contact information of his disciple, Almighty Seller.”

Pavilion Master Chu Two calmly asked, “Almighty Seller? Would I be able to buy my head from them like I would be able to from the Almighty Merchant?”

Song Shuhang shook his head after giving it some thought.

Pavilion Master Chu’s head was still in his Inner World... Without his consent, nobody would be able to take her head away.

Even the Almighty Merchant couldn’t break into his Inner World.

“What’s the use then? I only want to buy my head back. I don’t need anything else,” Pavilion Master Chu Two said in dissatisfaction.

Under the cashier counter, the electronic eyes of the blond girl peeped at Pavilion Master Chu Two repeatedly.

She was puzzled.

The relationship between the beautiful girl in a black dress and the shop owner was so puzzling.

The shop owner looked like he was at least in his thirties... Eh, that’s not right. If one looks carefully, the shop owner actually looks quite young, as if he’s in his twenties? It should just be that he maintains his appearance well, after all, the shop owner looks rather mature and reliable.

On the other hand, the girl in the black dress on the opposite side looked petite and exquisite, and should be 15 years old at most.

The shop owner looked much older than the other party.

However, the shop owner kept on calling the other party “Senior Chu”.

A 30-year-old uncle calling a 15-year-old girl a senior. What kind of strange relationship was this?

The most important thing was that the conversation between the shop manager and the girl in the black dress was so horrifying.

First, the girl, Chu, asked the shop owner to return her head.

The shop owner said that he didn’t know where it was.

Then, she asked the shop owner to tell her the contact information of a merchant, and that she wanted to buy her head from that merchant.

What kind of terrifying conversation was this?

What kind of product was this Chu girl’s head?

And most importantly, wasn’t her head right there right on top of her neck?

The blonde girl used her mechanical eyes to repeatedly confirm that her head and neck were completely intact.

But when the shop owner was talking with the other party, it was as if she really was missing her head, and he was calmly chatting with her about the matter of trading for her head?

The blonde girl couldn’t help but think of all kinds of ghost stories that she had heard of before, such as the legend of the headless horseman and so on. After thinking of such things, she couldn’t stop herself from shivering.

And she didn’t know if it was just her, but she felt like the temperature around her had somewhat dropped. She felt a little cold; despite her being mechanically modified, most of her body was still human, so she could still feel cold... At this time, she really wanted to have a sheet that could bring her a little warmth.

❄️❄️❄️

Pavilion Master Chu Two said, “Then, that Almighty Seller... Can they contact the Almighty Merchant?”

She bought Pavilion Master Chu’s hair from the Almighty Merchant previously, and she was certain that it was the hair of her own head, and that it had been pulled out not that long ago.

Therefore, she believed that she would be able to buy her head back from the Almighty Merchant as long as she had enough spirit stones.

Song Shuhang shook his head again—when he saw Fairy Almighty Seller last, she was also looking for the Almighty Merchant.

Speaking of that, there was a bet between the Almighty Merchant and Senior White Two.

As long as the Almighty Merchant could avoid Senior White Two and wasn’t caught by Senior White Two within four days, Senior White Two would not capture him again, and would even give him two big deals.

And if the Almighty Merchant was caught within four days, Senior White Two wanted to get his sheet from him and 20 treasures on top of that.

Calculating the time, four days should have passed, so the Almighty Merchant should be safe now, right?

He shouldn’t have to avoid Senior White Two anymore.

If that was so, then why couldn’t Fairy Almighty Seller contact him? Could he have gotten addicted to playing hide and seek?

Or could it be that the Almighty Merchant had been taken away by Senior White Two?

Pavilion Master Chu Two said seriously, “Then, that means that you still don’t know anything. Stop messing around.”

“...” Song Shuhang.

Pavilion Master Chu Two stared at Song Shuhang’s... head, looking at it in interest.

Her eyes were like the sharp blade of a thief, and Song Shuhang felt his neck go cold.

Pavilion Master Chu Two suddenly said, “Since I can’t find my head, then... Give me your head.”

Song Shuhang responded, “Huh?”

This new topic was a bit too scary, no?

Pavilion Master Chu Two said, “I’ve given it some thought, and I only lack a head at the moment. Your head is also suitable, and I can replace mine with yours. I’m not disgusted with you, so I’ll be able to accept merging your head with mine.”

She was serious!

Her gaze told Song Shuhang that not only was she thinking about it. She really wanted to do it.

Song Shuhang’s scalp went numb. Since Pavilion Master Chu Two lacked Pavilion Master Chu One’s head, it wasn’t that strange that her thinking was rather abnormal.

Was a head something that could be unscrewed, and then installed back on?

Song Shuhang hurriedly waved his hands, and said, “Wait, wait. My head is definitely not suitable for Senior Chu. I’m a man, and you’re a woman. Moreover, if my head is taken off, I will die.”

“No, I feel that your head will match me very well. Moreover, you won’t die. Your head will fuse with me, and your life will fuse with mine, lasting forever, never dying until the universe comes to an end.” Pavilion Master Chu Two slowly stretched out her hand, getting ready to twist off Song Shuhang’s head.

Song Shuhang said, “Wait, wait. Give me some time to think about it? At least give me some buffer time?”

...The cooldown time of his Resurrection Gold Coin hadn’t ended yet. What if his head were to be twisted off and he died? They should at least wait until his Resurrection Gold Coin was back up, right?

Ptui, even if the Resurrection Gold Coins were back online, he didn’t want his head to be twisted off.

“You don’t have to think too much, I’ll simply twist your head off gently. And if you really want, I could save your body using special means. Even if I twist your head off, your body won’t die off.” Pavilion Master Chu Two calmly talked about terrifying things.

Song Shuhang hurriedly said, “Wouldn’t that make me a headless knight? Wait, let’s discuss things first. Senior Chu, there’s no need to be in a hurry.”

He definitely couldn’t let Pavilion Master Chu Two take his head.

If she really could switch out for someone else’s head instead, then there seemed to be room for negotiation.

Pavilion Master Chu Two kept her hands stretched forward, ready to twist off his head at any moment. “What do you want to discuss? You might not be in a hurry, but I am.”

Song Shuhang said, “Wait. Anyway, I’m right here, I can’t run away. Let’s talk about the problem of the head first. Senior Chu, do you need a head that satisfies you? Does it not have to be your own head?”

Pavilion Master Chu Two said, “In principle, I will get my own head back sooner or later. However, before I find my own head, I could use your head temporarily. I’m not disgusted with you, so I can accept you.”

Song Shuhang said, “Then, can’t you use someone else’s head?”

Pavilion Master Chu Two thought for a moment, and then said, “No, I feel sick just thinking about using other people’s heads.”

Heavens, am I not also a part of those ‘other people’?

Song Shuhang asked, “Then why are you fine with my head?”

Pavilion Master Chu Two thought for a while, and said, “Well, first, I know you, and we are more or less friends. Second, when I was resurrected and reborn, the first thing I saw was you, and I felt that you were very kind. Third, your surname is Song, which personally gives me a good impression.”

“...” Song Shuhang.

Are you a chicken? After breaking out of your shell, you instantly feel some cordiality with the first thing you see?

Pavilion Master Chu Two asked, “Is there still anything more? If you’re done talking, I’m going to twist your head off now.”

Song Shuhang hurriedly waved his hand, and said, “Wait, give me some time to think. There might be other solutions to this that don’t involve twisting my head off.”

After saying that, he looked at the puppet maiden who was beside him.

The puppet maiden had her fingers crossed and her chin resting on them as she pretended to be an inanimate puppet, remaining motionless.

Song Shuhang looked around and saw the small blonde girl shivering at this time—after listening to the conversation between Song Shuhang and Pavilion Master Chu Two, she had been frightened out of her wits.

Song ‘Head Soon To Be Gone’ Shuhang felt very anxious.

Senior Chutwo urged, “How much longer are you going to make me wait?” Her patience seemed to be thinning down.

Song Shuhang said, “Senior Chu, please be patient. Also, the desserts haven’t been served yet. We can continue talking after you finish your desserts. Give me some time to think things over first.”

Pavilion Master Chu Two seriously said, “Alright, then I’ll twist your head off after eating the dessert.”

Song Shuhang secretly let out a breath of relief.

Song Shuhang thought, Fortunately, the Inner World is not blocked. As long as I’m fast enough, I might be able to hide in the Inner World before Pavilion Master Chu Two can react.

Before he entered the Inner World, it would be best for him to look for a way to divert Pavilion Master Chu Two’s attention elsewhere and create an opportunity for himself.

Right, he could have his clone, Song Shuhang Two, be the one to replace him in having his head twisted off first. That should be enough to draw her attention.

At the moment when Pavilion Master Chu Two was twisting Song Shuhang Two’s head off, he could immediately transfer the puppet maiden, the blond girl, and himself into the Inner World.

Song Shuhang was in thought while he habitually opened the Nine Provinces Number One Group.

Besides, speaking of heads, Song Shuhang kept on getting the feeling that he had other materials available.

However, even after thinking for some time, he couldn’t think of any suitable materials to use.

In the Inner World, were there any other heads besides Pavilion Master Chu One’s head?
