"Do you know why I haven't killed you earlier?"
Dugu Luoxue's crimson lips parted lightly, her voice clear and melodious like pearls dropping onto a jade plate, ethereal and captivating. "Because I was waiting for the big fish behind you. Unfortunately... it seems he has abandoned you."
The woman raised the embroidery needle, slowly aiming it at the man's forehead.
You Ying's eyes widened in despair.
He tried to escape from this terrifying woman, but his body refused to move.
Endless fear and regret devoured his emotions.
As a cool sensation touched his forehead, the needle's tip gently punctured the skin.
Like a dragonfly skimming water, Dugu Luoxue merely pricked lightly at the flesh before retracting the embroidery needle, then wiped off the slight trace of blood on it with her sleeve.
You Ying's body froze, his pupils resembling shattered glass, splintering into cracks.
Soon, those cracks began spreading across his entire body.
