In this space that isolated everyone, it was as if all madness was about to be unleashed.
Su Ruan only felt her figure fluctuating, unaware of the situation.
It seed as though she had returned to her past life, being captured again and again, forced to endure all his anger and unease.
Like a lone boat on the sea, rising and falling, the uncontrollable feeling of being out of control left Su Ruan a bit dazed.
She desperately wanted to hold on to sothing, but in the end, she could only grasp Lu Shinian’s arm, like the last desperate person clinging to a final lifeline, holding tight, even as her nails seed to wear away, yet still unwilling to let go.
Red marks were left on Lu Shinian’s cold white skin.
Everything outside seed to no longer be related to them.
The spiritual power that unconsciously spread out was rging with extre intensity without their knowledge.
Lu Shinian’s eyes turned a blood red, with seemingly only one voice in his mind.
Love her.
Completely, rcilessly love her.
Rationality had long since disappeared, and the world beca void.
Until a cold tear drop fell on his fingertip.
Lu Shinian’s body suddenly stiffened, staring blankly at the red-eyed Su Ruan.
"I..."
He wanted to explain, but besides the word "I," not a single word could co out.
Su Ruan’s long lashes fluttered slightly, her eyes half-open looking at Lu Shinian, her voice carrying a slight hoarseness.
"It’s... a bit powerful."
It felt like compared to the past life, he seed even stronger.
Is it because the Ancestral Stage has stabilized?
Lu Shinian stared at Su Ruan with a perplexed expression, seemingly not expecting her to say that.
After a while, he lowered his head and gently kissed her neck.
No words were needed, he showed his tenderness with actions.
A tenderness that was only for Su Ruan.
Su Ruan bit her lip lightly, although her body felt a bit off, strangely, her Spiritual Sea felt an unprecedented ease.
As if... it had been smoothed over.
This strange feeling made Su Ruan respond to Lu Shinian according to her instincts.
The light was so bright it was dazzling, allowing Lu Shinian to clearly see all of Su Ruan.
Only his eyes reddened, being so careful that he overlooked sothing.
For instance, the small transparent tentacles that suddenly appeared from beneath Su Ruan’s black hair.
The little tentacles seed small, with a faint pink at the tips, as if they had just grown.
They seed a bit scared of the unfamiliar environnt, only appearing for a mont before disappearing.
————
Aiers felt she was very unlucky.
She had been in the human world for a few days, not only failing to find the little one but also getting tricked out of her Energy Stone by humans.
Without human identification, she was tricked into getting one, which cost her a Level 2 Pure Energy Stone.
That was bearable, but the identification she was given labeled her as a widow.
She... she hadn’t even married an insect! How could she be a widow!
Humans were really bad; they should all be eaten!
Aiers ground her teeth, if not for Central Star being where the little one lived, she would have destroyed it long ago.
She didn’t even know where the little one was now, whether she had enough to eat and wear.
The little one had suffered a lot following them in the Spiritual Domain, and they felt heartache for her.
Recalling how she used to rely on the little one, Aiers covered her face in sha.
If she were in her original form now, her wings of absolute power might be used entirely to cover her blushing face.
"Aiers, are you slacking? Hurry up and get to work!"
The rough voice echoed in the small room.
Aiers lowered her hands, replying expressionlessly, "Oh."
She had no human Credit Points and didn’t want to sell gifts intended for the little one, so to stay in the human world longer, she found a job.
Working as a waitress in an upscale private cafe.
She couldn’t understand why humans liked such bitter and cloying things.
Humans were truly unpredictable.
Aiers carried what was said to be handmade coffee into the private room, her voice cold, "Your coffee."
There was only one person in the room, but nestled in his arms was a tiger.
The tiger flicked its tail in boredom, looking lazy.
But from it, there faintly emanated the little one’s spiritual power.
Aiers suddenly looked up, her eyes piercing at the seemingly foolish fat tiger.
Qi Chen held the tiger, letting it play around on him.
He took out an apple he bought from Su Ruan from his arms, wavering it in front of the tiger, "Want to eat, Da Hu?"
Da Hu: ...
Childish!
It let out a howl, wanting to chomp on the apple, but soone was faster.
A swift wind swept by, almost instantly, the apple ended up in Aiers’ hand.
"Where did this apple co from?"
Aiers asked bluntly, staring intensely at Qi Chen.
Qi Chen squinted, this waitress actually managed to snatch the apple from his hand...
"Bought it." Qi Chen answered calmly.
"Where did you buy it?" Aiers stepped forward, pressing on.
This apple carried the little one’s spiritual power, it slled so good, she wanted to eat it!
"Bought it from a black market stall." Qi Chen said casually, "It’s probably gone now."
Aiers clutched the apple tightly, clearly having no intention of returning it to Qi Chen.
"Where is the black market? How can I get there? How much is an apple in Credit Points?"
Qi Chen didn’t answer the first two questions, only disclosing the price of the apple.
"A hundred thousand each."
Aiers wasn’t familiar with human world prices; she could only calculate based on her current wages.
She now earned five thousand per month, a hundred thousand was... 20 tis five thousand?
That ant working for 20 months, a year and eight months, to buy an apple.
But...
The Insect Race wasn’t a kind race, buying things? Not happening.
Robbing was more enticing.
"This apple is mine now." Aiers stated expressionlessly, tucking the apple into her bosom.
Qi Chen wasn’t too surprised by such a robbery act; after all, Zong Yan from the Second Legion enjoyed these things too.
But tolerating Zong Yan didn’t an he could tolerate this unfamiliar waitress.
Qi Chen’s big hand casually patted Da Hu’s back, a faint smile at the corners of his mouth, a picture of a refined scoundrel.
"Miss, taking without asking is considered stealing."
Aiers couldn’t tolerate being accused of theft; her expression grew colder.
But she knew not to engage this man lightly, not that she couldn’t win, just a bit troubleso.
She didn’t want to cause trouble for the little one, even though she hadn’t t her yet.
So, her gaze fell on Da Hu, and she spoke, "You’re holding a fully beastified human, isn’t that illegal in your human world?"
