Just as he was about to set off with the others, the system interface suddenly appeared before his eyes.
Good lord!
Lei Qi could only cry out inwardly: Good lord!
When Big White had not left, the system had shown no reaction whatsoever. Who would have thought that Yun Yun had barely left when it popped up?
But didn't pregnancy need some time before it could be detected?
After all, whether it could grow required a process.
He felt that he was quite understanding.
"Claim it."
[Ding. Congratulations, Host, you have obtained a special reward: Life-bound Soul-Control Lock x3.] (Note: System rewards are divided into three stages: entry, implantation, and birth.) Life-bound Soul-Control Lock: Once the Host uses it on another person, that person will become the Host's loyal servant. (At present, the Host can control experts up to the two-star Dou Zong realm.) Once the soul is locked, none below a Dou Di can break it.
The moment Lei Qi saw this reward, his eyes lit up.
These two rewards had arrived somewhat timely.
Three rewards—this was simply too damn satisfying!
"I suddenly remembered something. We won't be heading to the desert for now." Lei Qi stopped.
The others were all puzzled upon hearing that.
"Ying'er, Xian'er, the two of you cultivate here for now. Golden Eagle, protect their safety."
Lei Qi then looked at Yang Ji. "Come with me."
"Yes."
Although Yang Ji was somewhat puzzled, since Lei Qi had given the order, he naturally did not hesitate in the slightest.
Then, the two of them left just like that.
Cao Ying, however, stomped her feet in anger!
She had been tossed aside and ignored again!
Still, unlike before, she neither argued nor made a fuss this time. Instead, she immediately calmed her mind and began cultivating.
Little Fairy Doctor was the same. She sat cross-legged where she was and began cultivating.
As for Golden Eagle, it stood guard over the surroundings. Though it did not know what Lei Qi had gone off to do, after following him these past few days, it had become certain of one thing: their background was ridiculously formidable!
Thus, Golden Eagle was no longer fixated on the single Transformation Pill before it.
It felt that if it followed Lei Qi, its future achievements would surely be even greater.
What was wrong with being a dog?
As long as one chose the right master, even a dog could strut around in glory!
It had to be said, this eagle was quite clear-headed.
On the other side, after Lei Qi led Yang Ji out of the basin, he immediately said, "Yang Ji, sense the area nearby. Is there an aura belonging to a Dou Huang expert?"
As he spoke, Lei Qi also began sensing the surroundings.
Although his soul power had increased considerably, there was naturally still a gap compared to Yang Ji, an eight-star Dou Zun.
Very quickly, Yang Ji said, "Young Master, there really is one. Just now, a Dou Huang expert was not far away."
"Let's go over." Lei Qi ordered.
Yang Ji immediately took the lead upon hearing this.
Before long, they found Ling Ying's location.
Though his strength was merely at the Dou Huang realm, his ability to conceal himself was truly outrageous. Even Lei Qi had not noticed him immediately. Fortunately, Yang Ji directly used a spatial lock to restrain him.
The instant Ling Ying was restrained, his face changed drastically!
He then looked at Lei Qi and Yang Ji. He did not recognize either of them, and he looked at Yang Ji in confusion. "Senior, why have you acted to restrain me?"
"You're Ling Ying of the Ancient Clan, right?" Lei Qi asked.
Ling Ying's expression changed slightly as he said in shock, "You... how do you know me?"
"That isn't important. What's important is that you don't want Xiao Yan to die here, do you?" As Lei Qi spoke, he had already signaled Yang Ji to capture Xiao Yan.
Ling Ying's face instantly turned pale. However, as a Dou Huang expert of the Ancient Clan, he quickly calmed down and said, "Since you know who I am, then you should also know that the boy is someone my Ancient Clan intends to protect."
"Don't fucking invoke your Ancient Clan. If Gu Yuan learned that you, a useless piece of trash, let some brat win Gu Xun'er's heart when she was young, do you think he'd crush you to death?" Lei Qi said coldly.
With Ling Ying guarding her, Xiao Yan had still found an opening?
How utterly useless!
Though perhaps Ling Ying had never imagined that children could do anything.
Ling Ying's face turned pale again, because he had never expected Lei Qi to know about such a thing???
This was disastrous!
"You... what exactly do you want?" Ling Ying asked.
"Don't resist. I can spare Xiao Yan's life. Otherwise, just wait to atone for your crime with death." As Lei Qi spoke, he used the Life-bound Soul-Control Lock.
Ling Ying instantly felt as though some restraint had been placed upon his soul!
Great shock rose in his heart, and he immediately wanted to resist.
"So, you want Xiao Yan to die?" Lei Qi asked coldly.
If the other party stubbornly refused, the Life-bound Soul-Control Lock truly would have no way of controlling them.
That was why Lei Qi had chosen to threaten him from the start.
Once the soul-control succeeded, Ling Ying would have to let Lei Qi manipulate him as he pleased. From then on, he would be like an informant Lei Qi had planted within the Ancient Clan.
Ling Ying's status was ordinary, so perhaps he would not obtain any useful information. But Gu Xun'er was different. If Ling Ying could draw out more information from her, wouldn't Lei Qi be able to learn many things?
Of course, the main reason Lei Qi controlled him was that he did not want Gu Xun'er to know that he had acted against Xiao Yan.
She was a rather brain-dead woman. For Xiao Yan's sake, she truly could do anything.
That was precisely why he needed to keep her under control.
Without this soul-control lock, so be it. But now that he had it, he naturally had to get Xiao Yan under control.
No matter what, since he had come to this world, how could the continent's number one beauty belong to someone else?
Lei Qi had no enmity with Xiao Yan, nor did he have any with the Xiao Clan. But the world was simply like this. He wanted many things, and if Xiao Yan could not obey him, then there was only a dead end waiting for him.
Xiao Yan's achievements would not be too high, because Lei Qi did not intend to let him go too far.
In the end, Ling Ying did not dare resist. When the Life-bound Soul-Control Lock successfully controlled his soul, a notification box appeared before Lei Qi's eyes.
[Soul control successful!] Note: Although the person whose soul has been controlled still retains their own thoughts, they will put the Host's interests first in all matters and can never betray the Host under any circumstances. (A Dou Di can remove it on their own.)
"You... Master..."
Ling Ying had originally wanted to ask what Lei Qi had done, but the word "Master" came out of his mouth before he knew it.
He did not possess even the slightest desire to resist.
He did not dare to, nor could he.
Perhaps Ling Ying had never imagined that he, a loyal hound of the Ancient Clan, would one day put the Ancient Clan out of his mind and acknowledge another as his master!?
"Hehehe..."
Seeing Ling Ying's reaction and the system prompt, Lei Qi laughed happily. He was exceedingly satisfied with this outcome!
