In a simple kitchen, a few fresh ingredients were placed on the rough wooden table, and a casserole on the stove was bubbling with steam.
The crackling of the firewood made Du Ning's profile appear bright and dark.
Li Lingge's nostrils twitched slightly, and a scent of meat mixed with the fragrance of mushrooms and elixirs entered his nose.
He raised his eyebrows and looked at Du Ning who was lifting the lid of the pot. The master of Ziyun Palace, who was known for his coldness, had his sleeves rolled up to his elbows, revealing two white jade-like forearms.
"You don't want to make me a midnight snack, do you?"
Without even looking up, Du Ning stirred the thick soup with a wooden spoon.
"The Snow Phoenix Chicken from Ziyun Mountain, stewed for an hour, can help stabilize the soul."
She suddenly turned around and lifted Li Lingge's chin with her slender fingers covered with oil.
"Do you prefer breasts or legs?"
Li Lingge lowered his eyes. From this angle, he could just see the grooves under her loose collar, and a little stove ash on her snow-white skin.
“I like souls.”
"soul?"
Du Ning turned his head and looked at the meat in the pot. The chicken breast and chicken legs were still there, but the soul was gone.
Following her gaze, Li Lingge realized that he had misunderstood and quickly changed his words.
"I like feet."
As he spoke, he picked up some chicken feet behind him and blew on the hot air.
"You asked me to come here, not just to treat me to a midnight snack, right?"
"Eat first, and talk after you finish eating."
While Du Ning was serving the soup, her beautiful eyes kept looking at Li Lingge as if she was looking at her prey.
I have to say that Du Ning's cooking skills are really good. After Li Lingge took a sip of the soup, he exclaimed in admiration.
No matter what happens tonight, he has to finish eating this chicken first.
"I didn't expect that the dignified Palace Master of Ziyun Palace could also make delicious soup."
Soon, the meat and soup were gone.
Li Lingge wiped his mouth and his eyes became serious.
Because, at this moment, the kitchen was surrounded by a barrier, which obviously blocked his way out.
"Is this what they call the divine prison?"
Du Ning shook his head slightly, and then a golden chain mark appeared between his eyebrows.
The mark flickered, making her pale face look gloomy and uncertain.
She slowly raised her hand and lightly touched the mark with her fingertips.
A golden arc of electricity suddenly burst out from the mark, burning her fingers to pieces.
"Did you see it?" Du Ning's voice was filled with suppressed pain. "This is the shackles of the Divine Court."
Li Lingge stared at the golden chain mark. Under his starry eyes, the mark gradually revealed its true appearance.
That was not a simple brand at all, but a chain that ran through her entire soul!
The lock ring is densely engraved with spells, and each stroke contains suffocating power of laws.
"A restriction imposed personally by the Purple Sky God Emperor."
Du Ning pulled open his collar, revealing the same gold chain pattern on his collarbone.
"From the day I took over the position of Palace Master, I became his puppet."
She suddenly grabbed Li Lingge's wrist and pressed it against her forehead.
In an instant, Li Lingge's sea of consciousness shook violently.
He saw a vast starry sky and the young Dunin kneeling on the altar.
The shadow of the Purple Sky God Emperor hung high in the sky, and with a flick of his finger he drove the golden chain into her soul.
With each link of the chain that sank in, her eyes became emptier.
The picture is broken.
Li Lingge pulled his hand back suddenly and found that there were burn marks on the palm of his hand.
The golden chain was counterattacking madly, and golden blood began to seep out of Du Ning's seven orifices.
"Why are you letting me see this?"
"Because you are the only one who makes the Purple Sky God Emperor feel threatened."
Du Ning suddenly laughed, his mouth almost reaching his ears, looking sick and crazy.
Her slender white fingers suddenly clamped Li Lingge's wrist like an iron clamp, and her nails dug deep into his flesh.
"Do you think I want you to help me untie the shackles?"
Her voice suddenly split into two tones, one as clear and cold as before, the other as hoarse as a demon.
"You're wrong. I want you to be my new puppet!"
Snap!
The burn marks on Li Lingge's palm suddenly cracked, and the shadow of the golden chain drilled into his meridians like a poisonous snake.
What's even more terrifying is that the golden chain mark on Du Ning's forehead is twisting and deforming, gradually turning into a strange purple-gold rune.
That is not a brand controlled by humans at all, but a replica that has been tampered with thousands of times!
Du Ning's pupils began to ooze purple-black mist.
"Over the years, every time I was manipulated by the God Emperor, I secretly memorized a Dao pattern."
Her snow-white skin was densely engraved with runes that originated from the gold chain. These runes squirmed like living things, forming a creepy web.
The bloody fingers pressed against Li Lingge's brow.
"Now it's your turn to have a taste of it!"
In fact, her goal from the beginning was to completely control Li Lingge, because only in this way could she gain true freedom.
People change. Even if Li Lingge promises her now that he will break her shackles in the future, there is no guarantee that he will change his mind after he really becomes the Lord of the Divine Court.
Therefore, she must hold the initiative in her own hands.
As long as she can control Li Lingge, she will be invincible no matter whether Li Lingge wins or loses in the end.
If Li Lingge really overthrew the Divine Court and became the new Lord of the Divine Court, then this Lord of the Divine Court would have to kneel at her feet.
All this happened so suddenly that Li Lingge had no chance to react.
boom!
His sea of consciousness was turned upside down, and countless purple-gold runes swarmed in like locusts, madly gnawing at his consciousness.
What’s even more terrifying is that these runes are reorganizing and are about to form a control mark that is exactly the same as the one on Du Ning!
