Constantine's eyes seemed capable of devouring people, and his mouth, which stretched as if holding up a coat hanger, made Kanon feel as though she had fallen into an ice cave.
Whether she faced him head-on or tried to avoid him, the outcome might be the same.
So instead of sitting around waiting for death, it was better to rise up and fight back.
"Since you've interrupted my entertainment, let's have you amuse me now!"
The rope loosened from Xiao Xue and then coiled around Kanon's neck like a venomous snake.
The surrounding girls let out piercing screams.
Kanon was completely out of with her surroundings. She remained calm, never showing a trace of fear.
Constantine felt his authority being challenged. He put away his smile and slowly tightened the rope.
Seeing this, Kanon not only didn't look afraid but actually seemed more at ease.
Constantine enjoyed seeing the terrified expressions of women facing death. If she remained calm, it would humiliate him.
This was undoubtedly a risky move.
No one knew if humiliation would make Constantine fly into a rage or become more interested in Kanon.
However, Kanon had no other choice.
Run, she couldn't escape.
Fight, she couldn't win.
She could only take a gamble!
Kanon's face gradually turned pale, but she still wore a smile. With all her strength, she forced out a sentence through clenched teeth, "If you kill me, you'll be missing out on a lot of fun."
Constantine stared into Kanon's eyes.
In those eyes, there was pity, even disdain.
It was as if Kanon were a high-class citizen savoring a top-grade, fresh steak, while he was a lowly wretch sipping rotten offal soup.
Suddenly, Kanon felt the rope around her neck loosen. Her heart was still pounding, and even her fingers were trembling uncontrollably. She d her hands behind her back, and raised her head, still maintaining her elegant posture.
"Fun?" Constantine laughed. "How much fun can you give me?"
Kanon was silent for a moment, then suddenly she remembered the hint—"Words have power."
It was said that Constantine I liked stories, so wouldn't Constantine III be the same?
"Joy comes in many forms, like stories," Kanon said. "The love for stories is imprinted in human genes."
“That phrase sounds very familiar. My grandfather often mentioned it. I've heard countless stories since I was a child. I've read almost all the novels available on the market, and none of them have truly brought me joy.”
Constantine sneered with contempt.
Everyone knew that his family loved listening to stories. However, because they had heard so many stories, ordinary ones no longer excited them.
Originally, Constantine had thought Kanon might say something astonishing, but to his disappointment, it was just this.
"My story is different from others."
"I'll give you just one sentence," Constantine said, raising a finger. "If your sentence doesn't interest me, I'll kill you immediately and use your tongue to make alcohol."
Kanon closed her eyes, cold sweat dripping down her back.
At this moment, she felt like the heroine from "One Thousand and One Nights," who had to tell a story to the king every night. If the story wasn't captivating enough, she'd be beheaded the next day.
“What’s the matter? Can’t think of anything?”
"I have something." Kanon opened her eyes. "Before my master died, he gave me a secret manual. When I opened it, I found it wasn't a manual, but an erotic picture."
Constantine's eyes suddenly widened, and even Da Luoshan, who never listened to stories, turned his head, curiously looking at Kanon.
"And then?"
"Do you want to keep listening?"
"Go on, this seems interesting."
"Then let all these sisters go out."
"For each sentence you say, I'll let one girl go, but if any sentence displeases me, I'll kill you."
"I've already said one sentence." Kanon pointed at Xiao Xue on the ground and said, "Let her go first."
"Fine, you can go."
Xiao Xue nodded and got up from the ground to leave.
But she stood by the door, hesitant to leave, unsure if she was worried about Kanon or curious about the rest of the story.
Constantine poured himself a glass of wine and smiled. "Keep going."
Kanon took a deep breath and continued.
"The Master died, and before he passed, he called Xiao Gua and his Eldest disciple to his bedside to distribute his inheritance.
The Eldest disciple, that is Xiao Gua’s Senior Brother, received the Master’s token and inherited the sect.
Xiao Gua, on the other hand, was given the Master’s secret manual.
Everyone knew Xiao Gua was a martial arts dunce who couldn't even hold a sword steady, yet Master still entrusted him with the manual.
During the mourning period for Master, Xiao Gua opened the manual, only to discover it was actually an erotic picture."
Constantine's eyes lit up, and he tapped the table with his fingers. "Don't keep me in suspense. Go on."
Kanon signaled with her eyes for the girls around her to leave, but none of them moved; they all stood rooted to the spot, unwilling to leave. Helpless, Kanon continued the story.
"One night, the Senior Brother came to Xiao Gua's room to inquire about the manual.
He asked, 'Xiao Gua, can you lend me the manual? Don’t worry, I’ll just take a look and return it.'
Xiao Gua shook his head and replied, 'Senior Brother, you’re already married with children. What use do you have for that manual?'
The Senior Brother nodded, realizing that the manual must be cultivated by a virgin, which was why Master didn't leave it to him.
The news about the manual spread quickly.
One day, their Junior Sister came to Xiao Gua’s room, also wanting to borrow the manual.
The Junior Sister said, 'Senior Brother Xiao Gua, you’re already practicing the Master’s manual, right?'
Xiao Gua nodded.
Junior Sister said, 'Can you teach me?'
Xiao Gua asked, 'You want to learn?'
Junior Sister nodded vigorously.
Xiao Gua said, 'Alright then, lie down on the bed.'
As he spoke, Xiao Gua reached out to undo Junior Sister’s clothes. She was horrified and slapped Xiao Gua across the face."
"Heheheh... interesting..."
Constantine clapped his hands in delight. This was the first time he'd heard such a dramatic story.

However, what was even more crucial was Kanon's storytelling rhythm, which was so captivating that it made everyone immerse themselves in the narrative.
"I've already said quite a few sentences. Shouldn't you let all the girls go now?"
"Let them go, let them go. You can let them all go, as long as you finish the story for me."
"Alright, I'll continue."
Kanon cleared her throat.
"Because of his misconduct with Junior Sister, Xiao Gua was confined to the forbidden room in the back mountain by his Senior Brother.
The day after Xiao Gua was confined, a letter arrived in Senior Brother's hands.
The letter was from the number one thief in the martial arts world, 'Drum Beetle'. He claimed he had set his sights on the sect's secret manual and would steal it that very night.
Senior Brother immediately arranged for everyone to surround the mountain gate, not allowing even a fly to enter. He even stationed more than a dozen hidden and visible sentries near the room where Xiao Gua was confined."ƒгeeweɓn૦vel.com
