Chapter 691: Special Ability
"Out of desperation? If you were investigating the Tianqi Holy Pearl, you could have just come to me. What does this have to do with Lin Mengyao?"
Chen Feng frowned and asked coldly.
"It’s precisely because I couldn’t glean any useful information from you that I had no choice but to target Lin Mengyao, and that was also Sikong Zhuxing’s idea."
"He believed that Lin Mengyao, being your fiancée, should know the whereabouts of the Tianqi Holy Pearl, so he ordered me to start with her."
"I really had no other option but to use a Magical Treasure to forcibly extract Lin Mengyao’s critical memories. However, doing this comes with side effects; it would drain her spiritual power, leaving her in a vegetative state."
"But please believe me, I never intended to harm Lin Mengyao. If I can’t find the Tianqi Holy Pearl, Sikong Zhuxing will certainly not let me off."
"Everything I did was just so I could survive. I had no other choice—I didn’t want this either!"
Ye Qianrou said with a face full of guilt and her eyes red.
In truth, speaking of her conscience, she could definitely be considered kind-hearted compared to those ruthless mercenaries in the Soul Sorrow Mercenary Group.
During her long tenure with the Soul Sorrow Mercenary Group, she had never killed an innocent person and had always carried out covert missions.
Moreover, she had joined the Soul Sorrow Mercenary Group solely to repay a debt of gratitude.
