Chapter 103: Deception, Heart-stealing
"What a good plan." Yue Heng suddenly appeared behind Min Yun.
He looked at the long corridor where no one could be seen and sighed softly.
Huo Liaoye should not have known that Prince Jin's heart was a golden furnace, but it was Duan Lingyi who let it slip out due to her "carelessness".
Huo Liaoye is a very suspicious person. A situation like this where something is half-said will definitely arouse his curiosity. As long as he is interested, he can always get the answer in his own way, such as from Yue Heng or Mandola.
In fact, Min Yun and the others could have taken the initiative to ask for Jin Litong's heart. As long as they said that it was a symbol of love given to each other, Jin Litong would definitely not disagree given her love-brained personality.
But this will lead to a low situation.
What you ask for actively is never as good as what you receive passively.
If you actively ask for something, it will inevitably be labeled as utilitarian, and the person being asked will also feel psychological resistance as if their freedom of action is threatened.
But if it is given as a gift, the donor will have a sense of satisfaction and accomplishment, and will not be able to find any loopholes when bringing up the past in the future.
As he thought about it, Yue Heng smiled with pleasure.
His protective shield finally had a door.
Over the years, he has tried various defensive devices and finally found a magic circle with medium to high power and low consumption. Now he just has to wait for Jin Litong's heart to serve as the starter.
Min Yun also nodded in satisfaction, "After the revision, this plan is better than the original plan. By the way, is the mirror monitoring connected?"
"Of course." Yue Heng casually released a mirror as tall as his own.
What was reflected in the mirror was Huo Liaoye's rapidly moving figure.
How could Yue Heng miss such an interesting thing? He had already installed many mirrors in the corridor.
Even the sky above the entire empire is covered with a huge mirror array, which can monitor various open-air scenes in real time, just to be able to eat a variety of melons in real time.
To some extent, he is even more gossipy than the gossipy fairy Gua Tiantian. After all, how could a good person work continuously for hundreds of years without going crazy?
What's even sadder is that as a cow horse he doesn't even have coffee.
"Forget it, let's not talk about these sad things. Eating melon is the most important thing."
Yue Heng comforted his wounded heart again and stared at the mirror intently.
At this time, Huo Liaoye in the mirror had successfully arrived outside Jin Litong's room.
He took a deep breath and knocked on the door.
"Come on, who is it?" Jin Litong's voice quickly came from inside the door.
As the handle turned, Jin Litong's figure gradually appeared.
At this time, he was wearing a lavender pajamas, and his braids were loose and messy, probably because he was disturbed from his sleep.
"Huoliao? What do you want from me?" Jin Litong frowned as he looked at the man with long reddish-brown hair who was blocking his door.
If it was Duan Lingyi who came, he would definitely be very happy, but why did a stinky man come to see him, and in the middle of the night?
Jin Litong raised his eyebrows and quickly took two steps back. Could it be that this guy had some improper thoughts about him?
When he thought of this possibility, Jin Litong felt a chill all over his body, and there was a hint of disgust in his eyes when he looked at Huo Liaoye.
When Huo Liaoye saw Jin Litong's strange eyes and slightly changing expression, he always felt that he was thinking about something bad. He suddenly got goose bumps all over his body, and even the slightest guilt in his heart disappeared immediately.
Huo Liaoye stared at Jin Litong's chest, no, it should be his heart, and said hurriedly: "I have something very important to tell you, about Xiaoyi, it's best to find a quiet place."
If they fight here to seize the heart, they will definitely be discovered by the patrolling guards of the palace. By then, it is hard to guarantee that Jin Litong will not escape immediately when the matter is exposed.
He must be lured to a place where there are not many fairies and where no one will pay attention even if there is a fighting sound.
"Is there anything that can't be said here?"
Jin Litong on the other side frowned. Although he would not give up any news about Duan Lingyi, the current Huoliaoye was too strange, as if he was doing some tricks.
But Huo Liaoye just lowered his head and continued, "How about going to the martial arts arena? It's quiet there and there aren't many outsiders."
The moonlight was so dark that Jin Litong could hardly see his face clearly.
After a long time, perhaps because of his confidence in his own ability, or perhaps because he was eager to know the news, Jin Litong finally agreed.
The two of them went to the martial arts arena one after the other.
In addition to the peaceful fairies, there are also some warmongers in the empire. In order to prevent fights from time to time, the empire specially set up a martial arts arena so that the fairies can vent their energy in time.
In addition, the empire holds a selection competition for grassroots officials every hundred years, and the best ones are selected based on their strength and intelligence to manage affairs across the empire.
The establishment of this martial arts arena can also provide a venue for the strength selection competition.
Therefore, Huo Liaoye specifically chose this place. If it were here, there would be basically no fairies coming here at night.
Secondly, even if patrolling guards heard the sound of fighting in the martial arts arena, they would only think that fairies were venting their energy inside and would not arouse any alarm.
When the two of them were standing in the venue, Huo Liaoye activated the protective shield button next to him.
Instantly, layers of moonlight refraction mirrors completely enveloped the entire martial arts arena.
In order to practice the concept of fairness and justice and give all citizens the right to know, tickets for each official selection competition will be sold publicly, allowing many fairies to buy tickets and watch.
In order to protect the safety of property, Yue Heng specially laid moonlight refraction mirrors throughout the venue to ensure that any unexpected threatening fairy power would be reflected back.
Now this set of protective shield is just convenient for Huo Liaoye. As long as he holds this button tightly, Jin Litong will never be able to escape.
After all, the refraction protective shield not only has Yue Heng's precedent, but also Mandola, Abdu, Duan Lingyi, Min Yun, and even his own and Jin Litong's immortal power.
If you don’t press the button, you can’t escape, let alone being a God, even if you are an animal.
"Huoliaoye, what do you mean by this?" Jin Litong took two steps back vigilantly.
Although I realized from the beginning that Huo Liaoye might have bad intentions, I didn't expect him to be so blatant.
"Hehe, it's nothing. I just want to ask you for something." Huo Liaoye laughed sinisterly.
"What?"
"Your heart!" At this moment, Huoliaoye suddenly released all the immortal power that had been accumulated in his body for a long time.
The scorching flames like a volcanic eruption attacked Jin Litong.
Caught off guard, Jin Litong was tightly wrapped by the flames and suffered severe burn damage.
The severe pain made him realize that Huo Liaoye was not joking and he really wanted his heart.
