271: Chapter 271 Kidnapped?

"That's not right... It's not here either... Did I really lose it..."

After searching carefully multiple times with no results, Xing Yaoyan scratched her head in annoyance.

Just then, she felt her shoulder being patted through the blanket.

Because it was through the blanket, she initially thought it was her imagination, but the subsequent light tap made it impossible to ignore.

Keeping her back hunched and in a half-prone position, she slowly poked her head out from under the blanket.

The first thing that caught her eye was a set of extremely familiar attire. Although the intricate ceremonial robes looked elegant and stunning, Xing Yaoyan didn't feel that way at all right now. On the contrary, the moment she saw it, she immediately bristled in a stress response.

That's right... In her memory, it was this guy who suppressed her when she was in an out-of-control state after being eroded by the Breath of the Abyss... Why is he here!

She subconsciously tried to mobilize the Power Of Will in her spiritual sea, but the sudden wave of dizziness caused the golden light that had just appeared around her to shatter instantly.

It's over... After waking up, she didn't eat spirit crystals immediately to recover her Power Of Will, which meant she couldn't use any of her abilities right now...

Xing Yaoyan twitched her lips in embarrassment.

She had originally thought that Huan Wuxing had saved her, so she had let her guard down for a moment. But now, the guy who had fought her earlier had suddenly entered, and not only was she completely unprepared, she couldn't even put up a fight...

Furthermore, thinking about it, maybe this guy was the one who brought her here. Although he hadn't taken advantage of her, maybe he didn't like prey that wouldn't resist. And if he took this opportunity to harbor ulterior motives against her...

No way! This Young Miss will absolutely never fall into depravity, even if I have to die!!!

Terrible thoughts flashed through her mind. Xing Yaoyan clutched the sheet nervously, keeping her head lowered, not daring to look up at the other person...

Her brain raced, frantically considering various possibilities for escape, but she kept negating them one by one:

In her memory, the opponent had a black Domain skill that could prevent her from using skills while she was within it. Even if she still had Power Of Will, it would be absolutely impossible to Swap and escape from his Domain...

Moreover, mysterious golden patterns would appear on his body, allowing his attacks to ignore her defenses. Although his aura made her crave it, just like Qian...

Uh... He also seemed to have a black scale-shaped Superpower manifestation... It looked quite similar to that guy Qian Mo's Superpower...

The more Xing Yaoyan recalled, the more the uncertainty of that guess in her mind increased in plausibility. In the end, her initially tense body slowly relaxed.

Could it be that he is...

"Are you looking for this?"

This wasn't his voice...

Xing Yaoyan felt as if she had instantly fallen into an ice cellar.

At the same time, the pendant she had been thinking about constantly suddenly appeared in her field of vision.

It was being gently hooked by a hand wearing a black glove, and the person was dangling it in front of her as if teasing a puppy.

"Give it back to me!"

Xing Yaoyan hurriedly reached out to grab it, but in her current terrible state, how could she possibly be faster than him?

Without any suspense, the hand holding the pendant simply retracted slightly, instantly making her lunge at thin air.

"You..."

Xing Yaoyan gritted her teeth and looked up angrily, seeing that familiar and annoying mask at a glance.

She didn't know if it was an illusion, but she seemed to hear a chuckle from behind his mask, which was undoubtedly provocative to Xing Yaoyan at this moment.

She was being looked down upon...

Xing Yaoyan became even angrier.

She launched a few more surprise attacks, but they were completely useless. Even more infuriatingly, the other person seemed to be doing it on purpose to tease her; every time he retracted the pendant, it wasn't by much, and he always kept it in a place where she could reach it if she stretched out her hand.

"Ha~ Ha..."

Her body hadn't fully recovered, and combined with the mental pressure, Xing Yaoyan eventually ended up lying on the bed in an extremely ungraceful position, butt in the air, panting. Her long wolf tail also hung limply behind her, as if telling of her helplessness.

"You'd better stop wasting your energy. Answer one question for me, and I'll give it back to you." He suddenly spoke.

Answer a question? Forget it... Just stabilize the situation with him for now...

Although Xing Yaoyan was full of doubts, she nodded, assessing the situation. At the same time, she secretly took out spirit crystals from her storage space, holding them in her palm and slowly absorbing them.

"You are a newly promoted Star Cult Priest, right... Why did you join the Star Cult? Also, when did you join, and how much have you done for the Star Cult? Tell me everything..."

"By the way, don't think about lying to me. I have the ability to detect lies, and I can immediately notice whenever you lie..."

As his voice fell, the atmosphere in the entire room seemed to become much heavier.

Xing Yaoyan didn't answer immediately. She had to buy time for herself, so the longer she delayed, the better. As for how to answer... Honestly speaking, she didn't dare to gamble on whether the other person really had the ability to detect lies...

Therefore, this was the only way.

Xing Yaoyan's eyes narrowed, and she immediately made up her mind.

She slowly changed from her previous prone position to a seiza position, one hand supporting herself between her legs, and the other hand pretending to wipe away tears, saying in a miserable tone:

"Big brother... Back then, during the 'Star Beast Clearance Plan' in the capital, a Star Cult Priest specifically sought me out to get me to join... Later, after realizing that the Star Cult could help me take revenge, I joined the Star Cult... If you knew about my past, you would understand me too..."

Xing Yaoyan just wanted to steer the topic to the past to stall for time, but she was quickly and ruthlessly interrupted by the other party.

"Alright, I know, you're not lying. Now tell me how much you have done for the Star Cult, what those things were, and whether you have killed anyone..."

His calm tone carried a trace of imperceptible relief.

Hearing his words, Xing Yaoyan still maintained an endearing expression on her face, but secretly clenched her fists.

Good grief, although this is my first time acting, I think that combined with my beauty and that delicate tone that even I felt was sweet, it was already very convincing, okay? It's one thing that you didn't react, but you also interrupted me directly, as if you have no interest in me at all. How detestable!

"Big brother... After joining the Star Cult, I only helped them recruit one member, and I didn't do anything heinous..."

While the other party was still listening attentively to her, ripples flowed through Xing Yaoyan's golden eyes.

She had just taken the opportunity to absorb ten spirit crystals, and she could already use some of her abilities!

No sooner said than done, she suddenly erupted, golden Power Of Will wrapping around her entire body, causing her speed to instantly rise to a higher level than before.

In almost half a breath's time, she felt the cold touch of the pendant on her fingertips.

Her movement had no warning; it was clear that the other party hadn't expected her to suddenly burst out with such speed. By the time he reacted, he definitely wouldn't have time to put it into his spatial ring, nor would he have the opportunity to use any Superpower.

Moreover, I still have a little Power Of Will left. As long as I use "Swap" the moment I get it, and then use the "Star Swallowing Art" to activate "Stealth Mode," I will definitely be able to escape from the tiger's den!

Hahaha, didn't expect that, did you, jerk! But this Young Miss has remembered you. I was careless this time; once I go back and develop for a while and return to my peak state, I will definitely go to that coffee shop to settle the score with you...
