Catching a Fox in an Alley, the Binding Aesthetics of Blue Silver Grass
Xiao Wu and the others were familiarizing themselves with fighting against Sea Soul Master in the Soul Fighting Arena.
Lin Qingmo then strolled alone through the streets.
Evenings in Vast Sea City are much more languid than in Heaven Dou City.
The Sea Breeze scattered the cries of street vendors, and the air was filled with the smells of grilled squid, salt, and some kind of fermented fish sauce.
To be honest, this flavor isn't very appealing to inland visitors who are visiting for the first time.
But after smelling it for a while, it actually has a strangely addictive and pleasant scent.
Lin Qingmo his hands tucked into his sleeves, walking at a moderate pace.
He looked just like an ordinary teenager who had nothing better to do than take a stroll.
Until he turned the third street corner.
About twenty paces behind me, I heard footsteps.
The footsteps had been following him for two blocks, always maintaining a distance of twenty paces.
Not too close, not too far, with a steady pace.
It's so steady that no normal person strolling around town would ever adopt such a pace.
"Following me?"
Lin Qingmo raised an eyebrow slightly. "Interesting."
He didn't turn around, but a smile played on his lips.
To be targeted in a place like Vast Sea City where you know no one.
Most people would probably panic.
But Lin Qingmo was only curious; who had so much free time?
Without pausing, he casually turned into a deserted alleyway by the roadside.
The alley is very narrow.
On both sides are mottled stone walls.
Several abandoned fish baskets were piled up in the corner, emitting a strong fishy smell.
Rotten vegetable leaves and puddles left by vegetable vendors during the day still remained on the ground, making a slight pattering sound when stepped on.
He walked to the middle of the alley and stopped.
Then his presence vanished from the spot.
The Blue Silver Domain of Life and Destruction instantly activated its Virtual and Real Camouflage, completely erasing his presence from this space.
Even the shadows were perfectly hidden in the shadows of the stone wall.
At the alley entrance, a dark figure silently slipped in.
It was a person completely wrapped in a black cloak.
She was slender and short, with her cloak hood pulled low, obscuring her entire face.
The Black-Robed Person took a few steps forward silently, then stopped in the middle of the alley.
Because he discovered that the target he was tracking had disappeared.
"Are you following me?"
A voice rang out from behind the Black-Robed Person.
His tone was unhurried, carrying a hint of curiosity, a touch of teasing, and a subtle sense of danger that was hard to pinpoint.
The Black-Robed Person turned around abruptly and saw Lin Qingmo standing there, looking him up and down with a mocking expression.
The next second, a pink light burst out from the black robe, heading straight for Lin Qingmo's face.
A surprise attack?!
Extremely fast speed, and at a tricky angle.
There's also a kind of cloying sweetness that sends chills down your spine.
Lin Qingmo didn't even frown.
The Blue Silver Domain of Life and Destruction's Immunity to All Laws was automatically triggered.
The pink-hued spiritual impact crashed against the invisible barrier of the realm.
"Charm? Mental attack?"
Lin Qingmo tilted his head. "That trick won't work on me, let's try something else."
The Black-Robed Person was clearly taken aback.
It wasn't the words that provoked me, but the shock of my own Charm failing me.
The Black-Robed Person refused to believe it and waved his hands repeatedly.
Three Light of Charm shot towards Lin Qingmo again in a triangular formation.
At the same time, her figure began to blur.
Activating his Martial Soul, he bounced and tumbled between the stone walls on both sides of the alley like Gui Mei, trying to confuse Lin Qingmo's vision.
Lin Qingmo stood still, not even moving a step.
The three Light of Charm struck the barrier of the domain, absorbing and dissipating them all.
"The strategy is correct: first use Charm to control the opponent, then use speed to create an attack window. Unfortunately for you, you've met your match."
He raised his right hand, his five fingers slightly spread.
"Laugh!"
Countless Blue Silver Vine burst forth from the cracks in the alley's floor.
The Blue Silver Grass, as hard as steel yet as flexible as a snake, blocked the narrow alley, turning it into a Blue Silver Cage.
The Black-Robed Person was shocked and tried to leap onto the wall to escape.
But the Blue Silver Vine were faster than her.
The Black-Robed Person had just leaped off the ground when three vines wrapped around his ankles, and he was dragged back backwards.
"!!!"
The Black-Robed Person activated his Soul Skill, attempting to shatter the vines with his Soul Power.
But when her Soul Power struck the Blue Silver Grass, the vines didn't even tremble.
The Blue Silver Tree of Life and Destruction's Ultimate Life attributes endowed these vines with an abnormal level of resilience; with her Soul Power Level, she simply couldn't break through their defenses.
The vines Entanglement and tightened around her with extreme precision.
His wrists were tied behind his back, his ankles were fixed, and his limbs were suspended in the air in an extremely humiliating position.
What's even more problematic is that it's unclear whether Lin Qingmo was controlling those vines or if they had some kind of aesthetic sense of their own.
The Entanglement method is tight but not constricting, providing support without sacrificing elasticity.
Every curve is outlined with binding, making it look like a rope art piece by some Grandmaster of dark aesthetics.
Judging from the shape formed by the Blue Silver Grass bindings, the Black-Robed Person is a woman, and not small in stature.
She struggled desperately, Binding by the vines, twisting like a fish caught in a net.
But the more she struggled, the tighter the vines tightened, highlighting every curve of her body.
Lin Qingmo approached.
He reached out, pinched the edge of the black robe's hood, and pulled it down.
Her long hair cascaded down.
Beneath the hood peeked out an extremely stunning face.
Her features were so exquisite they were almost aggressive, and the curves of her eyebrows and eyes naturally carried a hint of allure.
Even as she glared angrily at Lin Qingmo, her fox-like eyes still radiated a wild Charm.
Her figure was already impossible to conceal under the black robe.
Now, bound tightly by the Blue Silver Vine, every curve of its body is exposed in its entirety.
He gives off the feeling of a wolf poised to pounce.
However, this wolf is now bound by grass.
Hu Liena.
The leading figure of the Spirit Hall Golden Generation.
At this moment, she was being hung by Lin Qingmo in a humiliating position she had never imagined in her life, in a deserted alley of Vast Sea City.
"Let me go!"
Hu Liena's face turned bright red, whether from anger or embarrassment, it was hard to tell.
She struggled desperately.
But the Blue Silver Vine were bound very tightly, and very... colored.
Several vines wrapped around her waist and legs just right, outlining a silhouette that would make any adult man cough twice.
"Answer a few questions for me."
Lin Qingmo crossed his arms and looked her over with interest.
First, who are you?
"Second, why are you following me?"
Third, why did you attack me?
Hu Liena bit her lower lip and turned her face to the side.
She won't say anything!
"Not going to tell?" Lin Qingmo smiled.
That smile sent a chill down Hu Liena's spine.
"It's okay if you don't tell me."
Lin Qingmo took a step forward, his fingers gently pinching the collar of her black robe.
I could strip you naked and throw you into the street.
"The docks in Vast Sea City are bustling with people in the evening; I'm sure many would want to admire your beauty up close."
Hu Liena's pupils dilated.
"Of course, stripping them naked directly would be too crude."
Lin Qingmo tilted her head, flicked her finger in the air, and several Blue Silver Vine slithered over like nimble snakes, burrowing into the hem of her black robe.
"I can also use these vines to give you a good 'service'."
"Don't worry, my Blue Silver Grass is very obedient. It can be as gentle as you want or as heavy as you want. Which one would you like to experience?"
The tips of the vines brushed lightly against her skin beneath her black robe.
Hu Liena froze completely.
Fear and shame surged onto her face at the same time.
Her hair clung messily to her cheeks, and her eyes even began to well up with tears.
She gritted her teeth and held on for a few seconds, then shouted, "It's me!!!"
"I am Hu Liena! Hu Liena of the Spirit Hall! Let me go!"
Lin Qingmo's hand froze in mid-air.
"Hu Liena?"
He looked the girl, who was tied up like a dumpling, up and down, his expression changing from amusement to astonishment.
"Are you Hu Liena?"
"What else!"
Hu Liena was both embarrassed and angry. "Who do you think would come and follow you for no reason!"
Lin Qingmo's expression became subtle.
He looked closely at Hu Liena's face.
He had seen countless descriptions of this face in the original work, but the real person was even more exaggerated than the animation.
It wasn't the kind of delicate, fragile beauty, but rather a captivating, aggressive, and wild allure that you couldn't forget after just one glance.
