Xi'er was slightly taken aback by Xu Ye's words, then her expression turned mocking. "They say our Demon Race is ruthless and vicious, but it seems the people of your Demon-Suppression Bureau aren't much better."
Xu Ye sneered. "I can't be bothered to preach grand principles to you. You're not worthy of hearing them."
"If you want to kill me, then kill me. If not, I'm coming for you."
As he spoke, Xu Ye drew the Demon-Slaying Saber and leaped down to the first floor, walking toward Xi'er at an unhurried pace.
Seeing this, Lin Yuyan clenched her fists.
She knew Xu Ye definitely was not that kind of person.
But she had no idea what Xu Ye was planning.
Right now, all she could do was worry helplessly.
If only she were stronger.
At least then she would not feel so powerless.
At that moment, Xi'er saw that Xu Ye was truly approaching with his saber drawn.
Judging by his manner, he would not rest until he had killed her.
She frowned slightly and controlled the men around her to stand in front of her.
She refused to believe that the people of the Demon-Suppression Bureau could truly be so cruel and merciless.
Yet Xu Ye did not care in the slightest.
His footsteps never stopped.
One hand continuously caressed the Demon-Slaying Saber, and his gaze turned vicious, as though he had made up his mind to kill.
"Is this brat really from the Demon-Suppression Bureau?" Xi'er cursed inwardly at the sight.
Why did this brat seem more like a demon than she was?
"No! I can't let this brat do whatever he wants." Xi'er stared at Xu Ye, not daring to gamble on whether he would kill her without a care for anything else.
After all, she had already tested him just now.
Though they were both at the first level of the Qi-Controlling Realm, she seemed to be no match for Xu Ye.
With that thought, Xi'er suddenly smiled, her face once again wearing that smile that made anyone who saw it unable to stop looking.
Her lips parted slightly as she spoke softly. "Xu Ye, look into my eyes."
Xu Ye sneered and carelessly raised his head to meet Xi'er's gaze. "So what if I do?"
"Soul-Seizing!" The instant Xi'er's gaze met Xu Ye's, her eyes turned an eerie purple.
Xu Ye's pupils contracted, and a purple glow surfaced within them as well.
Immediately afterward, Xu Ye's movements became stiff.
His expression went numb, and his eyes instantly turned hollow and lifeless.
"It worked?" Xi'er was overjoyed at the sight.
She had not expected this brat to actually dare meet her eyes.
This move was her innate skill—the Soul-Seizing Technique!
As long as she met someone's gaze, she could use the Soul-Seizing Technique to control them.
Just now, she had merely wanted to see whether she could control Xu Ye. After all, since they were at the same realm, controlling him should have been very difficult.
She had simply not expected Xu Ye to be so poorly guarded.
She had succeeded in seizing his soul so easily.
Still, Xi'er knew that the people of the Demon-Suppression Bureau were all cunning, so she had to test him first.
She immediately parted her lips slightly and said, "My lord, do you think I'm beautiful?"
Xu Ye's face was stiff, but he quickly revealed an ecstatic expression. "Beautiful!"
"Xi'er is so beautiful!"
"Ahahaha!" Seeing this, Xi'er threw back her head and laughed. She was now completely certain that she had fully controlled Xu Ye.
She could not have been more delighted.
She had actually managed to control a Demon-Suppression Guard at the Qi-Controlling Realm.
"Boss Xu!" At that moment, Lin Yuyan upstairs saw this scene, and her expression changed drastically.
Her heart sank completely to the bottom.
She had calculated every possibility, but she truly had not expected this.
Xu Ye had actually been controlled by Xi'er as well.
Then what the hell were they supposed to do now?
Even their strongest, Xu Ye, had been controlled. Could they still survive?
"A Demon-Suppression Guard is nothing special! No matter how strong you are, you still have to obediently serve my purposes." Xi'er laughed loudly, unable to hide her smugness.
Then her smile vanished. She raised a hand and pointed at Lin Yuyan, ordering Xu Ye, "Take her down for me!"
Upon hearing this, Xu Ye said nothing. He stiffly turned to look at Lin Yuyan.
The Demon-Slaying Saber slid back into its sheath, and with a leap, he rushed upstairs and stared coldly at Lin Yuyan.
"Xu Ye, what are you doing? Wake up!" Lin Yuyan's face turned pale.
If Xu Ye attacked her, could she possibly survive?
"Take her down!" Xi'er shouted lowly.
Xu Ye stepped toward Lin Yuyan.
Lin Yuyan's face was pale as she instinctively retreated.
However, at that moment, Xu Ye, with his back to Xi'er, suddenly winked at Lin Yuyan, then winked again.
"???" Lin Yuyan froze at once.
What did that mean?
Xu Ye had not been controlled?
What was going on?
Yet after only a brief moment of stunned silence, she understood.
She immediately cooperated, putting on a terrified expression as she backed away.
Once Xu Ye sensed that Lin Yuyan had received the message,
He suddenly took a step forward and raised his hand, striking a palm toward Lin Yuyan.
Lin Yuyan looked terrified and shouted, "Xu Ye, wake up!"
At the same time, she sent out a palm strike.
Bang! The two palms collided. Lin Yuyan's face turned white, and she opened her mouth to spit out a mouthful of blood.
Her entire body flew backward, smashing hard against the wall.
Then she lay on the ground, looking utterly weak.
"Xu... Xu Ye... you..."
She could barely draw breath, much less speak.
Xu Ye: "???"
What the hell?
I didn't even use any strength!
Did she have to act this dramatically?
She even vomited blood.
Still, it looked very real.
"Good job!" Sure enough, seeing this, Xi'er completely believed that Xu Ye had been controlled.
It was confidence in her own Soul-Seizing Technique.
And with Xu Ye's performance—daring to attack one of his own people from the Demon-Suppression Bureau—if he had not been controlled,
Would Xu Ye really dare strike so ruthlessly?
With that, she completely lowered her guard.
With a leap, she landed directly between Xu Ye and Lin Yuyan.
"You damned... fox demon... The Demon-Suppression Bureau, the Demon-Suppression Bureau won't let you off." Lin Yuyan clutched her chest, looking weak as though she might die at any moment.
Yet she still gritted her teeth and glared at Xi'er with hatred written all over her face.
Xi'er laughed loudly. "The Demon-Suppression Bureau won't let me off?"
"How ridiculous. Aren't all your Demon-Suppression Bureau people obediently following my every command now? What are they worth?"
"You'll regret this!" Lin Yuyan said through gritted teeth, blood spilling from the corner of her mouth.
Xi'er laughed scornfully. "Whether I'll regret it or not, I don't know. But you should think carefully about your own fate first!"
"Don't worry, I won't kill you right away."
"From the looks of you, you're probably still a virgin, aren't you? There are so many men here. I'll have them satisfy you properly."
As she spoke, her face was full of mockery.
The thought of playing a dignified Demon-Suppression Guard from the Demon-Suppression Bureau like this was enough to excite her.
If word got out, would the entire Demon Race not go mad over her?
And when Lin Yuyan heard Xi'er's words, her expression darkened completely.
This time, she was not acting. She was genuinely furious.
Damned slutty fox!
At that moment, Xi'er could not be bothered to waste any more words. With a wave of her hand, she ordered, "Go! Strip that woman naked and throw her down below."
"Today, I want to enjoy watching how she gets played to death."
"Yes, Miss Xi'er!" Xu Ye's icy voice came from behind her.
Squelch!
The moment his words fell, a dull sound rang out.
Xi'er's expression changed drastically, and terror filled her eyes as she looked down.
A Demon-Slaying Saber had pierced through her abdomen, blood spraying out.
