Ranxi's sudden, almost instinctive reaction made Junlin stop and laugh. "Are you threatening me?"
Ranxi's hands trembled slightly as the short knife drew a bloody line across her snow-white neck.
She didn't know what to do. She hadn't done anything wrong, so why was everyone treating her like this?
Seeing this, Errou said softly, "Little sister, don't be afraid, we are all good people."
Ranxi didn't reply, but instead took a few steps back warily.
She understood the saying, "You can know a person's face but not their heart," a principle she grasped long ago.
Yes, Junlin and Errou do not seem like bad people, and their demeanor makes people unconsciously feel good about them.
But so what?
She was sold here, wasn't she?
Seeing this, Junlin shook his head helplessly and flicked the short knife out of Ranxi's hand.
Then he came to Ranxi and raised his hand.
Ranxi closed her eyes in terror.
Are we going to get beaten up?
She had expected this long ago; this was how these nobles treated the slaves they bought—if they didn't do their best, they would beat or scold them.
She had witnessed more than once people being tortured to death and then carelessly dumped in some corner.
The place is so luxurious; the other party must also be a nobleman.
Moreover, her opponent's strength far surpassed hers, and even if she wanted to resist, she was powerless to do so.
For a moment, Ranxi's heart was plunged into despair.
But to her surprise, the pain she had imagined did not come. Instead, a warm hand gently stroked her head, and a warm feeling spread throughout her body at that moment.
Ranxi slowly opened her eyes, and what came into view was Junlin looking at her gently with a smile on his lips.
For a moment, she was somewhat dazed.
After regaining her senses, Ranxi quickly backed away, trembling as she said, "Please... spare me."
Junlin did not agree upon hearing this. Instead, he calmly sat down on the sofa and said, "Answer a few questions for me. If you satisfy me, I might consider letting you go."
"good."
Ranxi nodded quickly, her small hands, hidden in her sleeves, were already sweating nervously.
Junlin picked up the teacup on the table and took a sip. "I'd like to know, what's your view on the supernatural?"
"I……"
Ranxi opened her mouth, but she didn't know how to answer.
Although she didn't sense any strange aura from the three of them, she couldn't be sure that they weren't in league with the supernatural.
In this world, there are quite a few people who, for the sake of wealth and glory, collude with the wicked and corrupt.
She was almost sold into slavery to a strange family because she trusted others.
Although it seems to have been sold off now.
Junlin saw the struggle in Ranxi's heart and said, "There's no need to struggle, no need to worry, just follow your heart."
Upon hearing this, Ranxi's red lips parted slightly, and she said in a trembling voice, "I...I hate them!"
If there were no strange occurrences in the world, she might not have ended up in this situation.
But it's not just the supernatural that's hateful, humans are too.
Junlin nodded and continued, "So, how do you view humanity?"
Ranxi was taken aback. "They... are both good and bad."
She doesn't want to have anything to do with either humans or the supernatural right now.
The former has trustworthy people, but not many.
The latter are all demons!
Jun Lin looked at Ran Xi, "If you had the power to change the entire world, what would you choose to do?"
Ranxi was stunned upon hearing this. Powerful enough to change the world?
She never thought of it because it wasn't realistic.
But if it really exists.
Perhaps she will eliminate all the strange things in the world and bring light to the world?
Ranxi whispered her thoughts.
Jun Lin smiled slightly, "Since that's the case, I can give you power. I hope you can do it."
"I……"
Ranxi opened her mouth, almost unable to react.
She felt that King's Landing was deceiving her.
But the next moment, she saw Jun Lin slightly raise his hand, and a pure power flowed into his body.
The corruption caused by the strange power was instantly suppressed, and she dared not make a sound.
Immediately afterwards, this power merged into her body.
In just a moment, Ranxi felt that her injuries and mental state had been completely restored.
If there is a mirror in front of you.
Ranxi will surely find that her face is no longer pale, and her originally dry purple hair has become soft and shiny.
Seeing this, Junlin nodded in satisfaction. "Your body has fully recovered. Next, I will grant you control over the Devouring Authority. After that, you can devour strange powers to strengthen yourself."
Although he could directly turn Ranxi into the number one person under the Heavenly Dao, then there would be no fun at all.
Ranxi looked at her body; the negative effects of the pollution had completely dissipated.
Moreover, she could feel that she had gained a completely new power; she could now devour strange powers.
This unexpected surprise excited Ranxi, and she quickly tried to absorb the power of authority.
soon.
Ranxi then absorbed all the strange power within her.
In this way, she can control the strange power without being affected by it!
This ability... is simply unbelievable!
