"Senior, senior—"
A Yao's cries echoed through the palace, but no matter how she called out, the Lord of the Black Nest did not appear. So A Yao took out the Mirror of Cause and Effect again. With a flash of light, a handsome man in a black robe and a cold man with flowing silver hair appeared on either side of A Yao. A Yao projected the images of Extinction Heart Luo and Thunder Emperor.
"Senior, if you don't show up soon, I'm going to cause trouble!" Ayao shouted, her words filled with threats.
Seeing that there was no response from any direction, Ayao said:
"Senior, I'll count to three. If you don't show up by then, I'm really going to cause trouble here."
"one."
No response.
"two."
No response.
"three."
Seeing that the Lord of the Black Nest still hadn't appeared, A Yao was about to order the projections of Lei Di and Mie Xin Luo to destroy the surrounding buildings and demolish houses inside the Black Nest. Just then, darkness fell, and countless red threads appeared in the world. With a flash of silver light, all the red threads were severed, and then the projections of Mie Xin Luo and Lei Di disappeared.
The Lord of the Black Nest appeared behind A Yao, and A Yao immediately turned around upon sensing it.
As soon as she turned around, the Mirror of Cause and Effect that she was holding was snatched away by the Lord of the Black Nest.
Ayao: "..."
Seeing that the Lord of the Black Nest had taken away her Mirror of Cause and Effect, she wasn't afraid. If he really wanted the mirror, he had a thousand ways to take it from her soul while she was unconscious, including her Reincarnation Bead.
"Senior, please don't speak so confidently. Although I am currently weak, I am still the young emperor of the Phoenix Clan. I don't believe I have anything about me that would interest you," A Yao said with a smile.
The Lord of the Black Nest looked at her: "If that were true, I wouldn't need to make a deal with you."
The implication is that I'll just grab it directly.
Ayao: "..."
That seems to be the case! She's right here, and he has a magical artifact that can counter her Mirror of Cause and Effect; she can't even open her storage space right now. Whatever he wants, he can just grab it; even her life, he can take it at any time.
Thinking about it this way, Ayao suddenly realized that the Lord of the Black Nest was actually quite good to her.
"I'll keep this for you for now." The Lord of the Black Nest took the Mirror of Cause and Effect, which then disappeared from his hand. Seeing that he was about to leave again, A Yao quickly grabbed his hand.
With the Mirror of Cause and Effect gone, A Yao really didn't know how to force him out. If she let him leave now, what if he didn't show up again later? In her anxiety, she didn't care about being impolite and grabbed one of the Black Nest Lord's hands.
Although he didn't even have a normal human form, Ayao noticed that his hand felt no different from a normal person's when she held it; it had body temperature, and even the touch felt like touching skin. She gripped his hand tightly, refusing to let go.
"You can't leave, I beg you, I want to get out, please help me!"
Ayao pleaded.
She had no idea how devastating her pleading was to the man before her. The Lord of the Black Nest felt as if she were squeezing his heart. Even though his heart had long since stopped beating, he now had the illusion of regaining his physical body and feeling his heart pounding in his chest. The warmth of her hand, which she held, felt unbearably hot to him.
He suddenly realized that she had pleaded with the main soul or the Extinction Heart Demon in the same way before.
Did they all surrender after she pleaded with them like that?
That's a dangerous idea.
He quickly shook off her hand.
"No!" He still refused Ayao.
The more she stirred his heartstrings, the less likely he was to let her go. Ayao tried to grab his hand again, but this time her hand passed right through his body. Ayao looked surprised; the Lord of the Black Nest had vanished once more.
Ayao stood there blankly, blinking her azure eyes. Was the Black Nest Lord's attitude towards her a little too kind? This thought suddenly popped into Ayao's mind.
He could have easily silenced her with force, or even beaten her half to death, to make her, as a junior, show him some respect. But even though she grabbed his hand and was incredibly rude in touching him, he didn't reprimand her.
She and he were complete strangers, and her master had no connection with him either. Why was he so easy to talk to?
If he were naturally mild-mannered, that would be understandable, but everyone knows that the Lord of the Black Nest has an extremely strange temper. He will not tolerate anyone who violates the rules he has set, regardless of their race, and he will not even give face to the Immortal Emperor.
Suddenly, Ayao remembered her first time coming to the Black Nest.
He appeared in front of her at that time and said some strange things.
He couldn't be...
Ayao thought of that possibility, and her azure eyes widened.

In a star field shrouded in gray mist, atop a dilapidated palace sat a man dressed in white. He was enveloped in celestial light, his silver hair cascading down his back, and his appearance was nothing short of perfect.
Not far from the man in white, a man in black leaned against a pillar. This man in black looked exactly like the man in white.
"It's been so long, and there's still no trace of A Yao anywhere. Where exactly was she teleported to?" the man in black asked.
"It's not in the No Return Starfield, nor in the Demon Realm, Dark Realm, Spirit Realm, Ancient Realm, Monster Realm, Immortal Realm, or Underworld," the white-robed man sighed.
At this moment, ripples appeared in another direction, and a man dressed in a gray robe walked out. This man in gray robe had the same face as the man in white and the man in black.
