Chapter 90 Invisible Kiss
Renly tapped his fingertips on the obsidian tabletop, and the metal ring face made a crisp sound when it collided with the tabletop.
"The Lord said that the birth platform for the messenger of God must be completed before the full moon."
He glanced at everyone casually, and narrowed his eyes slightly when he passed by Xiao Qihao.
Xiao Qihao naturally felt Lan Li's gaze. He could sense an invisible sense of oppression in this man's eyes.
"The old guys in the underworld have been investigating closely recently, so if you need to use some means, don't hide them."
The people in the black robes nodded one after another, and the sound of dragging chains came from the corner.
"And the slaves—"
Renly deliberately dragged out the last word, and Xiao Qihao dug his nails deep into his palms.
"The more the better, especially those with abundant spiritual power and vitality."
A suppressed low laugh was heard in the conference room. Ye Xiang's hand on his shoulder tightened slightly. Xiao Qihao looked up at him and found that he did not have the joy in his eyes that the people around him had.
When the meeting was over, Renly passed by Xiao Qihao. The smell of blood brushed past his ears, but he just raised the corners of his lips and then blended into the shadows.
Ye Xiang tore off the tape on his lips and pushed him with her palm against his back.
"Would you like me to show you around? This place is more interesting than you think."
Xiao Qihao stared at the direction where Renly disappeared, his Adam's apple rolling as he swallowed back his anger, and let Ye Xiang drag him towards the depths of darkness.

The sound of the key turning in the door lock was particularly clear in the quiet corridor.
Shen Qingze was led into the house by Fang Changling, and the smell of disinfectant mixed with a faint smell of dust hit him in the face.
The one-bedroom and one-living room layout is brightly lit by incandescent lamps, and the off-white walls are spotless.
The wooden floor has a matte finish, and the simple single bed, folding table and wardrobe are arranged in an orderly manner, which is more neat and tidy than expected.
The sound of Fang Changling fiddling with the bed and wardrobe echoed in the empty living room.
"I'm sorry to bother you for a moment. These past few days have been rough, so I have to trouble you with something."
“Better than sleeping on the street or in an office”
Shen Qing waved his hands helplessly. It was good to have a place to sleep. He was not picky about beds anyway.
He stroked the tabletop with his fingertips to make sure there was no dust, and his tense shoulders relaxed a little. At least he didn't have to be constantly on guard against prying eyes in the dark.
"Then I'll go back to the office first. Feel free to come to me if you have anything."
Fang Changling waved and walked away slowly. His back was thin and his steps were hurried.
After all, he is just an ordinary human being. No matter how strong his heart is, he will become fragile after his relatives go missing.
He has been staying in the office for the past few days, and the bruises under his eyes are more severe than before. No matter who tries to persuade him to take a rest, it doesn't work...
Shen Qing sighed and watched Fang Changling disappear at the end of the corridor before closing the door.
The bathroom tiles shone with a cold light. As the hot water rushed over his back, he looked at the unhealed scars in the mirror and sighed silently.
Wrapped in the compressed bath towel in the room, he leaned against the window and ordered a set of daily clothes.
He didn't bring any spare clothes with him, so it was impossible to go out and buy some now. Fortunately, electronic technology is quite advanced nowadays, and even clothes can be ordered for delivery.
The cold light of the mobile phone screen reflected on his face, and the prompt "Estimated delivery time: 40 minutes" on the food delivery app made him chuckle.
Unexpectedly, one day, he would fall into such an embarrassing situation.
The aroma of food from the police station cafeteria wafting in from the window, mixed with the hustle and bustle of the evening rush hour, actually made him feel more at ease.
After putting on a newly opened cotton T-shirt, Shen Qing sank into the unfamiliar bed.
The mattress was so soft that it was almost luxurious, unlike the hard beds in some low-quality B&Bs I stayed in before, which hurt my bones.
He stared at the water stain on the ceiling, letting sleepiness flood over his consciousness like a tide.
Perhaps, before the truth comes to light, this place can be considered a place of peace and quiet.
For no reason, he began to miss the warm embrace of Yeluvis.
At midnight, a slight scratching sound suddenly broke the silence.
Shen Qing suddenly turned over and sat up, holding the copper coin and the protective sword in his palm, and the cold light made his pupils shine.
"Who is it?! Come out!"
The shadow in the corner twisted and squirmed like a living thing. Only when I saw the furry ghost horns sticking out did my tense nerves relax.
"Where have you been?"
The sound of the wind he created when he put away the sword startled the little ghost,
The little guy covered in spider webs crawled out of the shadows aggrievedly, and his voice was like a crumpled piece of paper.
"He was so scary... I hid in the ventilation duct..."
After saying that, he jumped and rolled onto the sofa, tilted his head to one side, and stared at Shen Qingze stupidly.
Shen Qing stared at the little ghost shaking his head, and suddenly thought of Yeluweisi's eyes that always made him fall in love.
He reached into the old clothes on the bedside and was shocked to find that the talisman had been used up in the fight with the man in black robe.
A dull pain rose in his chest and he leaned back heavily on the head of the bed, swallowing a sigh with his Adam's apple rolling.
"Why……"
"Madam, are you looking for this? Here you go!"
The little ghost suddenly rushed over, holding a handful of wrinkled talismans in his dusty little hands, with an unknown slime on the edges of the talisman paper.
"I picked it up from the underworld, and the one that human gave me earlier."
Shen Qingze's fingertips trembled slightly, but he didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
"Don't pick up random things in the future, or Lord Bai will scold you."
When he took the talisman, he touched the little ghost's cold fingertips. The moonlight poured in through the gap in the curtains, stretching the shadows of the man and the ghost very long.
The talisman suddenly gave off a faint blue flame in Shen Qingze's palm, and the ashes fluttered like butterflies.
The mist rolled up from the cracks in the floor, condensing into a misty mirror in the air, and the looming figure of Yeluvis appeared in it.
"Yellowvis..."
Yeluvis's long silver-white hair fell on his shoulders, his pupils reflected the faint light of the talisman, and at the corners of his lips there was a gentle smile that Shen Qingze was familiar with.
Shen Qingze's eyes suddenly turned sour, and he looked at him, wanting to get closer to him.
I want to hide in His arms and tell Him how much I miss Him!
He tilted his body, knelt down and stretched out his hands, almost falling off the bed.
"careful."
Yeluweisi's voice was wrapped in the unique coldness of the underworld, but it made Shen Qingze's eyes hot.
He subconsciously reached out his hand, but his fingertips penetrated the shadow and only touched a ball of moist mist.
The next second, the swirling mist suddenly turned into slender fingers, gently stroking the dark, dry lips under his eyes.
Finally, she hooked her hands around his reddening ears lovingly.
Shen Qingze let out a suppressed sigh and held the cloud with his backhand.
"The same to you......"
Before he finished speaking, Yeluweisi leaned over and his invisible lips brushed across his forehead.
"Don't be reckless, those people have been making more and more noises recently..."
The words were shattered by the sudden cold wind, and the clouds and mist began to surge violently.
The kid on the sofa had curled up into a ball of fur before, but he jumped up and closed the window, then crawled into the shadow under the window.
It stole glances at the intertwined shadows of the two, listened to the whispers that were more scorching than the flames of the spell, and dared not even breathe.
I was afraid of disturbing them.
Until the last moment when the talisman burned out, Yeluvis's voice still echoed in the mist.
"wait for me,"
"Well, I'll wait for you."
Shen Qing knelt in the mist and raised his head devoutly.
They exchanged an invisible kiss.
