Chapter 788: A Clueless Heart That Left A Mark On Them
This brought her back to the time she was ensnared by the Golden Vine held by Yao Yanzi in the hidden realm of Congzhu, where she first encountered him after he had been drugged by Luo Chumei. Back then, she was on the verge of being compelled to resolve the effects of his aphrodisiac, completely powerless as she was stripped of her spiritual abilities.
What had he done to her? Now, without the use of her spiritual powers, she felt like a frail creature trapped in his grasp. Though her own physical strength was formidable, compared to his, she was just a vulnerable deer against a mighty dragon soaring through the skies.
She didn’t want to kiss him, struggling in vain as he deepened the connection between them. Her lips were already swollen and reddened, mirrored now on his own. The man before her appeared irresistibly alluring, his face flushed and breathing heavily.
A sense of wrongness enveloped her. She was aware that the lips brushing against hers belonged to ’Xiong Yi Chen’ and not her master. Staring into the face so close to her, feeling the heat of his breath, she had to constantly remind herself that this wasn’t her master.
As what felt like an eternity passed, nearly suffocating from the intensity of the kiss, he finally released her, smirking.
"Do not utter those words to me again, or next time, I won’t hesitate to pull out your tongue. You’re not going anywhere; I’ll ensure you remain entwined in my life," Xiong Yi Chen sneered, his captivating visage slightly flushed, yet his words dripped with cold cruelty.
"In this life, you will never escape me. You’re merely my pawn, and I will leverage you to uncover your father’s whereabouts and avenge my clan." He tightened his hold around her, a reflection of his own pain and helplessness. But since he was already trapped in a living hell, he was determined to drag her and his brother down into the depths of despair along with him.
"How dare you use my master’s lips to kiss me? How can you defile his purity through this? You occupy his body; why would you do this?" Fury coursed through her veins as she clenched her teeth and gripped his collar with force.
Her words shocked both Xiong Yi Chen and Xiong Zi Ying. They had braced themselves for her anger, her disappointment, even her disgust at being forced into this miserable game involving the Shenlian clan. But what was this reaction?
