Crack!
Lin Ye crushed the Ice Shackles around his wrist as calmly as if he were crushing a piece of foam.
"Lin Ye, how did you do that? Can you teach me?"
Lingxi looked at Lin Ye curiously. Even her Flame Sword had been unable to break through the ice.
Yet in Lin Ye's hands, it had seemed ridiculously easy.
Two cracks rang out.
Before she could even react, Lin Ye had shattered both the Ice Shackles and the manacles with Black Lightning.
"She knows our whereabouts. Morgana should be on her way here."
Lin Ye raised his head and looked into the vast white mist surrounding them.
For some reason, Lingxi saw a trace of anticipation in his eyes.
"Let's go." Lin Ye lifted his leg, intending to leave.
Rather than surrendering the initiative, it was better to strike first.
Lin Ye's plan was simple.
Find Morgana. If they could negotiate, then negotiate. If they could not, beat her until they could.
But after taking only a few steps, he suddenly stopped.
Lingxi, who had been following behind him, crashed straight into his back.
Softness pressed against his back. Lin Ye gave that cool, soft sensation an A-grade rating in his heart.
"Don't move."
Lin Ye coughed. This was not the time to think about such things. He became serious.
He looked toward the mist in the distance. There had just been a burst of energy fluctuations from there.
Sizzle.
Black arcs of lightning emerged from Lin Ye's right hand. With a light wave, the electricity traveled through the icy fog, carving out a lightning-shaped trail.
Boom!
The lightning struck a wall with precision, instantly blasting it into fragments.
Xue Yi's graceful figure was revealed. Her silhouette in the icy mist took on a hazy beauty, and her slender waist, too delicate to grasp in one hand, was utterly alluring.
"So you noticed me after all."
Xue Yi stepped out without the slightest surprise, seemingly holding a button in her hand.
"Lin Ye, you found me while we were playing hide-and-seek. What reward do you want?"
"A reward? We can talk about that later."
Lin Ye answered calmly.
"Later? You really are impatient."
Xue Yi smiled seductively and raised the red button in her hand. Then her tone shifted. "Do you know what this is?"
A Nuclear Detonator?
Probably not.
Lin Ye pondered briefly and roughly guessed that it could contact Morgana.
"As long as I press this button, the message I wrote will be sent to Queen Morgana's terminal. She will definitely come here then."
A threatening look surfaced on Xue Yi's lovely face as she suppressed the curiosity in her eyes.
She did not know how Lin Ye had entered Demon 1.
But that did not matter.
This was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
As long as she could capture Lin Ye, Xue Yi could push the demon faction's technology even further.
She knew Lin Ye possessed powerful technological methods and could even control black holes to a certain extent.
For a human, that was virtually impossible.
Yet Lin Ye had accomplished it.
Lin Ye was different from ordinary humans. To a certain degree, he seemed capable of being defined as a God of humanity, just like Queen Morgana.
For that, Xue Yi was even willing to grovel before him.
"Lin Ye, join us demons and pursue eternal evolution with us," Xue Yi declared passionately.
"As long as you join us, I can give you anything!"
"Really?" Lin Ye became interested upon hearing that.
Could he have Queen Morgana's Demon One too?
He asked the question directly.
Xue Yi froze slightly, and her expression darkened. "Stop joking. Even I do not have Demon One."
"However, I have an idea. Use the angel beside you as a token of allegiance, and Queen Morgana may consider taking you in as a confidant."
"If you perform well then, that request may not be impossible." Xue Yi spoke earnestly.
A trace of killing intent appeared in her eyes as she looked at the angel, Lingxi.
Lingxi's expression turned cold. She aimed her Flame Sword at Xue Yi. "Say one more word of nonsense, and I'll judge you with a single strike."
But Lin Ye pressed Lingxi's Flame Sword down with one hand.
Seeing this, Lingxi's heart could not help but grow cold.
Could it be that Lin Ye was tempted and truly wanted to join the demon faction?
"Lin Ye, don't be deceived. Demons are a bunch of villains. If you stay with them, you'll only fall into the abyss."
"Alright, Sister Lingxi. I know for myself what is good and what is evil."
"Besides, what I'm more curious about now is Xue Yi's body."
Lin Ye stared straight at Xue Yi.
Tsk, tsk. A Demon Gene combined with an Ice Gene.
What a fine divine body.
When injured, she seemingly could even turn her body into ice. A decent ability.
It would be nice if he could crack it.
However.
That rather ambiguous remark from Lin Ye instantly made both Xue Yi and Lingxi blush.
"You really have no shame," Lingxi cursed under her breath.
"Can we do it here?"
Xue Yi's eyes shimmered as her succubus physique exerted itself slightly. A fragrant breath, delicate as orchid scent, escaped her lips.
Her exquisite, beautiful face was fair with a rosy tint, like a red grape that tempted one to take a bite.
Hey, hey!
Were all demons this open?
Lingxi thought speechlessly. Faced with an offensive like Xue Yi's, she feared she truly had no chance of winning him back.
After all, male humans like Lin Ye only thought with their lower halves.
She knew reproduction was humanity's primary instinct, but Lingxi only hated that she could not bring herself to be so shameless.
"Uh..."
Seeing the expressions on the two women's faces, Lin Ye paused.
No, you seem to have misunderstood.
"That's not what I meant."
"I meant I wanted to crack your body, like this."
Lin Ye reached out and grabbed Xue Yi's wrist. To his surprise, Xue Yi let out a soft hum.
Lin Ye immediately felt a blazing heat in his lower abdomen.
Fortunately, after Yan's training, he had gained a certain degree of control around the opposite sex.
He resisted Xue Yi's seductive assault and immediately activated the Concept Rewrite Engine to unlock Xue Yi's body.
"You... what did you do to me?!"
Xue Yi realized that she could not move and stared at Lin Ye in shock.
But aside from her mouth, she could not move any part of her body.
Seeing this, Lingxi let out a heavy sigh of relief. "Lin Ye, so you wanted to crack Xue Yi's divine body."
"What else would I want?"
Lin Ye rolled his eyes at her speechlessly.
Several minutes passed, and Lin Ye obtained the Ice Gene he wanted.
Then he released the restraints on Xue Yi.
"I'll give you two choices: join me, or die here." Lin Ye spoke bluntly.
Xue Yi rubbed her aching wrist and looked at Lin Ye resentfully.
What a rough man!
"Lin Ye, although you are strong, you are far too arrogant."
Xue Yi looked at the button on the ground and waved her hand. An Ice Demon Claw immediately grabbed the button.
The claw was about to press the switch.
Just then.
Bang—!
A Black Ice Cone shot over and instantly shattered the red button in Xue Yi's hand.
Hm?
Xue Yi stared wide-eyed at the black ice appearing in Lin Ye's hand.
Wasn't that her Ice Gene?!
How could Lin Ye use it too?!
"Lin Ye, did you crack Xue Yi's Ice Gene?"
Lingxi covered her mouth in shock as well.
It had only been a short while, yet Lin Ye had already cracked the Ice Gene.
Did that not mean that as long as Lin Ye wished it, even her divine body could be cracked?
This man was terrifying.
