103: Chapter 103 Long ago, I met
The Wuwei Domain expanded.
An invisible barrier with a radius of thirty meters enveloped Qi Yun and Li. Within this domain, neither the user nor the target could leave until the hour was up. The domain could not be broken from the inside—that was the rule.
Although people outside the domain could see what was happening inside, the sound was completely isolated.
On the stockade walls of the Orderly Alliance, everyone was plunged into shock as they witnessed the "Disaster" Li's supposedly invincible defensive domain being broken head-on by Qi Yun.
"It, it broke?! That monster's shield shattered?!"
"Tribal Leader Qi Yun… he rushed in!"
"They were enveloped by an invisible domain? What is that?"
"Did we, did we win?! Is Tribal Leader Qi Yun about to win?!"
The buzzing sound of excited discussion filled the air, and many people craned their necks, trying to see the scene within the domain clearly.
Bai Yu stood in front of the crowd and explained: "Qi Yun once mentioned that he possessed a final trump card named 'Wuwei Domain'. It can only be activated after successfully touching a specific target."
"Once the domain is activated, it generates an absolute domain with a radius of about thirty meters on the spot. Within that domain, all extraordinary powers will be unusable."
Bai Yu did not continue, but everyone knew what that meant. They had already won, and some bold individuals began to slowly surround it.
At this moment, inside the domain, all supernatural abilities were lost.
Li stood in the center of the domain, looking down at her hands.
She tried to summon a storm, but there was no response.
She tried to sense her aura, but it was a void.
Even the simplest control of water elements was like a stone sinking into the sea.
"There is no need to try." Qi Yun's voice came.
Qi Yun stood up and released the hand that was gripping her ankle.
"In this domain, no one can use their abilities."
Li raised her head and looked at him.
For the first time, genuine astonishment appeared on that stunningly beautiful face.
Then, she smiled. It was not an angry smile, nor a mocking one, but a heartfelt smile as if she had discovered something extremely interesting.
"Qi Yun, you have won." She said softly, her voice carrying a strange sense of pleasure.
This was the first time she had seriously called his name instead of referring to him as an ant.
She took a step forward, bringing herself closer to Qi Yun.
"So, how do you plan to finish me off?" Li tilted her head, her long hair sliding down from her shoulder.
She paused, then continued in a tone of "friendly advice": "You had better make a decision quickly. This space… it has a time limit, right? I can feel its faint resistance against the rules of the outside world. Once it disappears, I will regain control of my power."
She did not finish, merely tilting her head slightly, revealing a faint smile on her stunningly beautiful face that could make anyone lose their soul, though at this moment, it made a chill run down Qi Yun's back.
"At that point, you will truly have no options left."
Qi Yun looked at her, his gaze sweeping over her flawless face and slender figure.
Li's expression at this moment was not like a loser's, but rather like a child who had received a new toy.
"I don't want to just… waste such a treasure. Killing such a beautiful 'girl' like you would be too much of a pity."
Li was stunned, and the confusion in her eyes deepened.
Then, as if she had suddenly remembered something, her eyes widened slightly.
"Ah… I remember now." She nodded gently, a playful curve appearing at the corners of her lips.
"The first time we met on that rainy night, I seem to have promised you that if you won, I could do some more daring things with you."
As her voice fell, she began to undo the simple white dress she was wearing!
"Wait! What are you doing?!" Qi Yun was scared out of his wits. At the critical moment when the dress was about to slip off, he lunged forward with both hands, firmly pinning down her moving hands while also holding the opening of her clothes shut!
Where his hands made contact, the skin felt cool and delicate, like the finest silk, with a sense of perfect elasticity.
Outside the domain, the people of the Orderly Alliance saw this scene and were stunned.
"Holy crap, why did that female boss suddenly start taking off her clothes?"
"Big Brother Qi Yun isn't planning to get with that female boss, is he?"
"Hahaha, how is that possible? In front of everyone's eyes."
However, Xia Jin, Sophia, and the others wore complex expressions; Qi Yun had done that kind of thing in front of everyone more than a few times already.
Inside the domain, Li's movements stopped.
She looked up at him, her eyes filled with confusion: "Why? Do you care about the gazes of those ants outside?"
Her tone was so natural, so natural that it made Qi Yun certain—she truly viewed everyone outside the domain as ants.
"I care." Qi Yun said, not loosening his grip.
Li looked in the direction he had just glanced—the area outside the domain was indeed full of people. Although no sound could be heard, the scene inside was clearly visible.
A trace of almost imperceptible disappointment flashed across her face.
Giving up on the plan for "daring things," she asked calmly: "So, you neither want to kill me nor do daring things. Then, how exactly do you plan to deal with me?"
Qi Yun fixed Li's clothes and took a half-step back.
He looked straight into Li's purple eyes and said clearly: "I want to take you off this island."
Li was stunned. She looked at Qi Yun for a long time, then let out a laugh.
"Hehe… Hahaha…" She laughed for quite a while before gradually stopping.
"What binds me to this island is the power of the rules." She said, her smile carrying a hint of mockery.
"How do you intend to resist the rules?"
"Using rules to counter rules." Qi Yun said, his tone calm. "I want to invite you to join my Tribe."
The smile on Li's face froze. She looked at Qi Yun as if she were truly seeing him for the first time.
Join… the Tribe?
She had woken up and fallen asleep on this island, over and over again, for so many years she could no longer remember.
Every time she woke up, she was greeted by endless slaughter. People feared her, hated her, and tried every possible way to kill her—or were killed by her.
No one had ever said the word "join" to her.
Those Tribes, after obtaining slots, would always use them up before the next crisis. No one would save a slot for after the crisis, let alone… invite an enemy to join.
"That thing…" Li's voice was a bit hoarse. "Is it really useful for me?"
"I don't know." Qi Yun said honestly. "But this is the only way I can think of to potentially bypass the 'rules' and take you off this island. It's worth a try, isn't it?"
He raised his hand. Before his eyes, a light blue system interface appeared.
【Member Invitation】
• Option 1: Select the target in the chat interface
• Option 2: Send an invitation to the target in front of you
Qi Yun chose the second option. The next second, a light blue screen appeared in front of Li.
【01 Tribe Leader "Qi Yun" invites you to join the Tribe】
【Do you wish to accept the invitation?】
【Accept / Decline】
Li looked at the screen, her eyes dazed. Familiar. Yet strange. It was as if a long, long time ago, she had also seen something like this.
