Chapter 717 My sister is dead
Xiang Tian looked at Bai Qianqian in front of him warily. Whether it was her unconscious following just now or the words she was saying now, they all made him feel an unspeakable sense of danger.
The Bai Qianqian in front of me is different from the Bai Qianqian I met before.
Realizing this, Xiang Tian quietly stepped back half a step.
This action allows for both a timely retreat and a forward attack with ease.
"What did you do to me?"
Bai Qianqian glanced at him calmly, slightly alleviating the feeling of weakness after using her strength, and then she spoke slowly,
"Why are you so nervous? What I did to you is almost the same as what the little mermaid next to you did to you."
Bai Qianqian, or rather Quanxian, spoke with a casual determination in his tone.
After experiencing it up close like this, she was completely sure.
There is actually someone of her clan in this palace.
It was also because she was too weak before and didn't notice it at all.
But the fact that he could smell the scent of the mermaid meant that Xiang Tian had close contact with the mermaid.
It's not as simple as just working together.
Xiang Tian's pupils shrank subconsciously when she mentioned mermaids. At this moment, he couldn't think about why Bai Qianqian knew this, but he had already confirmed his doubts in his heart.
Yanyan is really not a human being.
She is fake.
In the end, the guess in his heart was suddenly confirmed. Even though Xiang Tian tried hard not to show any trace of it on his face, his slightly contracted pupils still revealed his inner shock.
Quan looked at his reaction and instantly became interested.
"Why, the little mermaid didn't tell you her identity?"
"Let me guess. With your personality, you would never get close to someone for no reason after entering the palace. That person can only be someone you knew outside the palace."
Quanxian said this and looked at Xiang Tian's reaction. Although he tried his best not to show any emotion, the change in his breathing could still make people detect the difference in his emotions.
So I analyzed his reaction.
"I took great pains to find you, but you betrayed me not long after entering the palace. You used the things I asked you to use on others on me... What made the emperor decide to betray you?"
"Since we have known each other before and he can influence your loyalty, he is definitely not someone you can just do casually."
"Yes, I remember the couple who adopted you had a missing daughter? Is it her?"
Although Quanxian asked with doubt, his tone was firm. He looked at Xiang Tian based on the result of his analysis and saw a slight twitch in his cheek muscles.
I couldn't help laughing immediately.
"It seems I guessed it right."
Xiang Tian suddenly shot a cold look at her and asked her in a deep voice, "What do you want to say?"
Quan just looked at him and said in a steady voice, "The sister you are talking about is a mermaid. She can change her appearance and identity, so she should still be with a mermaid."
"What is... Ban Jiao..." Xiang Tian's voice was slightly hoarse.
Even though he repeatedly reminded himself not to trust this man, his doubts were finally answered by someone, and he couldn't help but ask.
Quan looked at him first, a blue light flashed in her eyes, but her face showed no expression. She casually tugged the blanket on her knees, and then spoke slowly,
"Mermaids, with human bodies and fish tails, are the most beautiful creatures in the sea. Normally, mermaids can grow legs when they come ashore, but companion mermaids are different. They cannot grow legs on their own. If they want to come ashore, they can only... seize the life force of mortals and transform into their original appearance."
Quanxian spoke the next sentence very slowly, but Xiang Tian felt as if a huge bell suddenly hit his ears. The sound of the bell almost made him tremble with fear. In his ears and mind, the only words she said were "before death".
So Yanyan, is dead? ?
She died...
Killed by the merman who is now pretending to be his sister?
