"I told you it's yours," he said. "This is your power."
"So what are you going to do?"
"Why?"
"Why?"
Pei Xiqing asked subconsciously.
Just then she saw the man's narrow eyes staring at her. Her eyelashes trembled and she felt an indescribable feeling.
His eyes were cold and calm when he first met me. He seemed gentle and polite, but in fact he was distant and ruthless.
And now, when facing her, his eyes were mostly gentle and patient, like the endless tolerance of a superior towards her, sometimes hiding endless desires, and just at that moment, she actually had the illusion of being suffocated by the possession and control in his eyes.
He moved his lips: "Why do you want to give it back to me? Now that you have it, no one will dare to hurt you again. You can do whatever you want."
Pei Xiqing told him her truest thoughts: "To be honest, after hearing your explanation of your supernatural powers, I really want to possess the Qiong Snake for myself. I wish I could own it completely. People are selfish creatures, and I am no exception. Although I won't be bitten by zombies now, the people in the base are far more terrifying than zombies. I'm afraid that if something happens one day, I won't be able to protect myself well."
Who wouldn’t want to possess powerful superpowers for life?
Coupled with her identity, she is always like a time bomb in the base, always in danger.
Protecting herself and Xiaobai are the most important things to her.
So, she is also very conflicted.
But it is not hers, she cannot force it, and she will not take it. What's more, this is the most important thing for Duan Xiaolin to gain a foothold in the base.
She had lost her superpowers, so she could just run away and survive. Duan Xiaolin had lost his superpowers, so she could imagine how difficult it was for them to live.
There are many pairs of eyes watching in the base.
She lowered her head, thinking gloomily whether there was a way to have the best of both worlds, and she didn't notice that the man's eyes were looking at her, which became softer.
Before she could think for long, the man gently stroked her hair: "Don't think about giving it back to me, you suppressed it, you deserve it, as for me, you don't have to worry."
He said: "I have never thought that my superpowers would have the possibility of recovering, but just from the fight with Gu He, I feel that my superpowers have recovered to some extent, even better than expected."
As he spoke, he raised his palm and looked at the extinguished strange energy in his palm.
One day, the supernatural power will come back again.
This was an unexpected gain that Pei Xiqing brought her.
"Recovered?!" That's good!
"Once there is a time, there will be a second time, and the number of times will increase."
Duan Xiaolin put his arm around her waist, caressing her soft scent after she had just taken a bath, "Hmm."
"When was the second time?" she asked excitedly, "Do you feel anything now? Is there any part of your body that feels hot, your dantian? Your internal organs? Or maybe..."
The man held down her flailing hands, his Adam's apple moving as he spoke in a deep voice, "Not yet. If you keep moving, you will definitely get it."
Pei Xiqing paused, then became obedient in an instant.
She raised her eyes quietly, the shame in her eyes seemed to be wetted by mist, and the corners of her eyes were red. "Then, when will you feel it?"
He smiled: "It will be available at any time."
"No!" Pei Xiqing added with a blushing face, "I'm talking about the recovery of my superpowers."
"I'm also talking about superpowers."
Pei Xiqing mustered up the courage to argue, "Then tell me, do you feel anything now?"
"As for superpowers, I don't know." He pondered for a few seconds. "All I can do is try to merge it with me when it recovers. The rest is up to fate."
"You actually believe in fate." Pei Xiqing suddenly thought of something, especially what she had experienced with Duan Xiaolin in the past. Several fragments of the story suddenly flashed through her mind. She hooked the man's chin with her fingertips, "It's really rare to hear you say such words. It's not like you at all."
"I really have no choice." He seemed helpless, "Otherwise, I wouldn't have been without superpowers for so long."
Pei Xiqing rolled his eyes twice.
"Then do you want to try and leave it to me instead of fate for now?"
