331: Chapter 7: It seems the honey trap didn't work on him.

The little system hurriedly roared in Yun Tiankai's consciousness: "Host! Did you even finish listening to what I said!"

Hearing the little system's voice, Yun Tiankai frowned unhappily.

Of course she hadn't finished listening.

Because she had just realized that her Existence Value didn't stop increasing once it went up.

Instead, it kept decreasing as time passed.

In one minute, the Existence Value dropped by 0.01%.

So, a full value of 100 would mean one million minutes, which is 16,666 hours, or about 700 days.

In other words, at full value, she could live for two years.

But in the current situation, if she didn't hurry to increase her Existence Value, she would very likely die for real very soon.

Watching her Existence Value rapidly increase from 0.1% to 0.2%, Yun Tiankai replied to the little system with two words: "No time."

Faced with life and death, who had time to listen to its nagging?

She continued to smile sweetly to farm for Existence Value.

"Longyan, thank you for saving me just now."

Hearing her sweet voice and seeing her radiant smile, Tang Longyan felt his breath hitch instinctively.

Then, he turned his face slightly, avoiding her gaze.

He stiffly raised his hand and removed her hand from his neck.

Yun Tiankai: ...

The little system: [Ahhh! The Great Demon Lord's son is angry, he's going to kill you, Host!]

Tang Longyan straightened up, looking down at her from above.

His expression was very serious.

Since reaching adulthood, this was the first time a young Female Beastman other than his sisters had wrapped her arms around his neck.

He always kept his father's words in mind.

"If it's not the Female Beastman you have chosen, do not get too close to her, and always remember what happened in the past."

Yun Tiankai swallowed, listening to the little system screaming non-stop in her mind.

She couldn't help but feel a little scared.

Just as she was about to say something, she saw Tang Longyan get up and walk away.

He sat down on the stone chair in front of the table.

He suddenly noticed that Yun Tiankai was following behind him.

Seeing him turn his face, she immediately flashed a radiant smile.

Tang Longyan: ...

Tang Longyan had to admit that her smile was very beautiful.

So, he turned his face away again.

He directly ignored Yun Tiankai, whose beauty had consistently held the title of school beauty at "Xiaozhong High School."

Yun Tiankai: ...

If the person in front of her were anyone else, she would have slapped them.

What's with the attitude!

She was so beautiful, yet she was forced to be the one courting rejection! Was she really that unbearable to look at!

It was simply unheard of!

However, the person in front of her was the Male Beastman who could give her life.

Yun Tiankai could only continue to force a smile.

"What's going on?" Tang Longyan asked suddenly.

Yun Tiankai's eyes lit up.

Since he had spoken, she had to show off her acting skills.

She immediately covered her forehead, acting weak and frail.

"I have had a strange illness since I was little; I must stay with a powerful High-level Beastman to survive."

"If there is no powerful High-level Beastman around me, I will die..."

As she spoke, she watched Tang Longyan's expression.

Bao Yang had said that he "wasn't very bright," so maybe he would believe her words.

However, Yun Tiankai waited for a few seconds, but suddenly, she saw a trace of mockery on his face.

"I briefly checked your body just now—"

"Ah! You checked my body."

Yun Tiankai suddenly covered her chest, acting as if she had been violated.

The next sentence was going to be, "You have to be responsible for me."

This way, she could legitimately stay by his side to extend her life.

However, before she could say the words, Yun Tiankai met Tang Longyan's suddenly sharp gaze.

Her voice was instantly stuck in her throat.

She opened her mouth several times but didn't dare to continue.

So scary...

It seems the beauty trap is useless against him.

Yun Tiankai coughed lightly to ease her tension and said politely: "Please speak."

Tang Longyan withdrew his gaze.

He couldn't help but chuckle.

This was the first time he had encountered a Female Beastman who was so proactive and changed her attitude faster than flipping a book.

Tang Longyan: "Just now, there was indeed no Energy in your body."

"You almost died."

"I gave you some Energy, so you should be fine now."

Following Tang Longyan's gaze, Yun Tiankai noticed that the wound on her knee had completely healed.

Yesterday, Auntie Hua had applied some herbs to it, and this morning, after the herbs dried, most of them had fallen off.

The skin underneath had clearly scabbed over.

But now, the skin on her knee was smooth, as if it had never been injured.

Yun Tiankai: Too strong! He actually has a Healing Ability!

In Beast World novels, this is usually the heroine's skill.

He's all-powerful!

Yun Tiankai couldn't help but start staring at Tang Longyan with an adoring expression again.

Tang Longyan felt a bit embarrassed by her staring.

He took a crystal out of his space and then took out a piece of soft, thick thread.

In a few moves, he threaded the crystal and made a pendant.

He reached out and handed it to her.

"Are you giving this to me?" She looked pleasantly surprised.

Tang Longyan nodded.

Yun Tiankai immediately reached out to take it happily.

She was extremely excited inside: Is this considered a token of love?

Tang Longyan: "If you wear this crystal, Energy will slowly enter your body."

"Then you won't have to keep staying by the side of a powerful Beastman."

Yun Tiankai: ...

Yun Tiankai withdrew her hand: So he wanted to drive her away.

She asked weakly: "Why?"

Tang Longyan looked at her: "You must have suffered a very serious injury before, right?"

Recalling the situation where the previous transmigrator fell off the cliff, Yun Tiankai nodded.

Tang Longyan smiled slightly and continued: "Because of that injury."

"Your body lost the ability to store Energy."

"So, if there is no Energy supply, you will die."

"And what you said about needing to stay by the side of a powerful Beastman."

"I guess it's probably because many High-level Beastmen have the habit of wearing crystals."

"Their crystals have invisibly nourished you."

"Although your symptoms are rare."

"But—"

Tang Longyan didn't continue, but his mother had once experienced a similar situation.

So he judged it immediately.

Listening to his clear analysis, Yun Tiankai thought: Where is he stupid?

Is there any idiot with such a clear train of thought?

Rumors are deadly!

[Host! Host! This crystal can be exchanged for a lot of points and transaction activity! Take it quickly!]

The little system's voice came from her mind.

Yun Tiankai took the crystal from his hand.

She said, "Longyan, thank you."

She closed her eyes and quickly scanned the Existence Value in her consciousness, which was neither increasing nor decreasing.

In other words, at this distance, the consumed Existence Value and the increased Existence Value could reach a balance.

She thought, and deliberately took two steps back.

Sure enough, the Existence Value started to decrease again.

Tang Longyan tilted his head, looking at her strangely.

He had thought that after she got the crystal, she would thank him and leave.

Why did she retreat into the cave again?

"But..." Yun Tiankai spoke pitifully again, "My situation is different from what you said."

"I must stay by the side of a powerful Beastman to survive."

Tang Longyan looked at her.

He took a deep breath.

It wasn't that he couldn't feel that she was intentionally getting close.

It was just that if she wasn't a sufficiently powerful Female Beastman, he wouldn't even dare to let her get close.

He didn't want the tragedy of the past to repeat itself.

Seeing that Yun Tiankai had no intention of leaving his room.

After a few minutes of stalemate with her, he stood up on his own.

The self-esteem of a Female Beastman is generally very strong.

If he ignored her, she would generally soon become embarrassed and angry, and leave.

He was all too familiar with this situation.

However, just as Tang Longyan walked to the door.

A "thud" sound suddenly came from behind him.
