"Brother Zhang Chen, don't be so tense. How could Little Sister Chong Ying bear to hurt you?"
Four spider legs floated behind Chong Ying's back. The thick black eyeshadow around her eyes made her look exceptionally bewitching. Judging by the current situation, the Corrosive Heart Water had caused her body and main soul to merge to a great extent, leaving her permanently in her initial release form.
"It's just that, Brother Zhang Chen, you were actually willing to hurt me before for the sake of some little bitch. That makes me wonder whether you're still worth entrusting my life to. What do you think?"
As Chong Ying spoke, one of the sharp spider legs suspended in the air swayed before Zhang Chen's left chest.
"I wasn't trying to protect Wang Yizhi. I only wanted to bring you out from Faceless's hands. My main purpose was to protect you." Zhang Chen spoke as he looked sincerely at Chong Ying beside him.
"Haha, are you saying Lord Faceless would hurt me? No, no... At the time, I was a little excited and nervous when I saw Sister Yi Zhi, so I forgot to tell you, Brother Zhang Chen. Lord Faceless isn't the bad person you imagine him to be at all. His way of thinking is unique. He is a reformer of the world. If you truly came to understand Lord Faceless, Brother Zhang Chen, you would definitely understand."
Zhang Chen's eyes became lost at Chong Ying's answer. He no longer knew how he should view the current situation.
From Chong Ying's words, this was not merely soul corruption. Zhu Huan had said that there was another object controlling and stabilizing the corruption within Chong Ying's body. That unknown object was likely the root cause of Chong Ying's heartfelt loyalty to Faceless.
