"ah!"
Yue Lishan could no longer hold back, and a shrill scream suddenly rang out, echoing wildly in the deathly silent space. Every syllable was filled with unbearable suffering, making it sound rather desolate.
"Senior..." Yue Lishan endured the excruciating pain that felt like a thousand cuts running through her body, managing to squeeze out a few words through gritted teeth, her voice distorted by the agony, "I... I just wanted to fight for a chance to live."
She raised her head, and although her delicate face was contorted with pain, her eyes still held a hint of hysterical persistence.
“Senior, you are incredibly powerful. If you truly intended to kill me, taking my life would be as simple as snapping your fingers. Why bother going to all this trouble and wasting your breath on me?”
Despite the excruciating pain, Yue Lishan gasped for breath, trying to regulate her disordered breathing. "Therefore, this junior dares to guess that senior must have some ulterior motive, and the only thing I have that can move senior's heart is this 'Soul Gift'."
Yue Lishan was certain that the person in front of her would not kill her easily.
After all, before this, the black mist had shown great interest in the bloodline of the merfolk, clearly indicating that it was extremely concerned about the "soul bestowal" matter.
In this dog-eat-dog world, no one would waste time and energy on someone who is worthless. If you are willing to deal with her, it means that you still have something to offer.
Hearing Yue Lishan's confident words, You Yueying couldn't help but feel annoyed.
She was already extremely displeased with this so-called "soul gift," and if it weren't for Qin Luo's future soul tribulation, she would never have done such a thing.
At this moment, Yue Lishan's confident tone sounded like jarring noise to her. You Yueying's lips curled into a cold smile, a resolute glint in her eyes, and she decided to grant Yue Lishan's confidence.
Suddenly, the aura of the black mist concealed by You Yueying changed, and a strong killing intent rushed towards Yue Lishan.
The black mist that was already surrounding Yue Lishan became even colder and more deadly.
The black mist, like countless tiny poisonous needles, frantically seeped into Yue Lishan's body, instantly turning her skin bluish-purple wherever it touched, exuding a dense aura of death.
Yue Lishan felt an aura of death enveloping her, and an unprecedented fear made her heart race.
Even her breathing became rapid and erratic, each inhale accompanied by a violent cough, as if she were coughing up her heart and lungs. In this life-or-death moment, she could no longer care about anything else; she had only one thought in her mind: to survive.
"Senior, cough cough, I...I am a descendant of the Yuanlan Sacred Shark Clan!" Yue Lishan shouted with all her might.
Voices filled with fear and despair echoed in this murderous space.
"Please spare my life! I'm willing to serve you!"
When she heard the words "Yuanlan Sacred Shark," a strange light flashed in You Yueying's eyes.
She stopped what she was doing, and the surging murderous aura dissipated.
The Yuanlan Sacred Merfolk are one of the three orthodox bloodlines among the Merfolk, and legend has it that they possess the ability to control deep-sea giant waves and summon ancient sea beasts.
Its soul gift is also among the top-tier.
You Yueying naturally knew the preciousness of this bloodline. Now that she learned that Yue Lishan was actually a descendant of Yuanlan Sacred Shark, she couldn't help but feel secretly glad that she hadn't acted impulsively.
"Hmph, you're smart to know what's good for you." You Yueying snorted coldly, her voice still icy, but with a hint of satisfaction.
Then, with a frosty gaze, he looked at Yue Lishan and said indifferently:
"Tomorrow, you will go to the fox clan and find that lecherous scoundrel who ruined your plans before... cough cough! human."
Yue Lishan was startled and was about to ask a question, but You Yueying's cold gaze forced her to shut up.
"As for the festival spot you've been longing for, I'll arrange it for you then."
At this point, You Yueying's lips curled into a faint smile. "However, you'd better pray that you can break through to the Saint Realm after the festival. If your bloodline hasn't returned to its ancestral form by then... hehe, you should know the consequences."
Hearing these threatening words, Yue Lishan bit her lower lip, her heart filled with resentment, but she dared not disobey in the slightest.
"Yes, senior."
Seeing her strained appearance, You Yueying didn't take it to heart, and her figure began to fade away. At the same time, the black mist that filled the sky quickly disappeared.
Watching the black mist disappear before her eyes, Yue Lishan breathed a sigh of relief, her tense nerves finally relaxing a little.
However, just when she thought the danger was temporarily over, she suddenly felt something strange in her body. The black mist that she thought had dissipated still lingered, and it was everywhere, clinging to every inch of her meridians like a maggot clinging to her bones.
Even more terrifying, some of the black mist had already seeped into her heart!
This caused Yue Lishan's face to turn deathly pale instantly. She clutched her chest in terror, her spiritual energy flashing as she tried to expel the black mist that had invaded her body.
But no matter how hard she tried, the black mist seemed to be rooted in her body, remaining completely still.
"What...what exactly is going on?"
This made Yue Lishan suddenly realize that the remaining black mist in her body was a shackle carefully set up by the mysterious expert, a sharp blade hanging over her head that could fall at any moment.
This was undoubtedly a declaration that even far from this place, her every move was still under their control. If she showed the slightest disloyalty, she would be a cold corpse in the next moment!
......
At this moment, in the Spirit Valley, a forbidden area of the Fox Clan, Qin Luo stood with his hands behind his back, gazing at the lake with abundant spiritual energy not far away.
