Chapter 402: Life energy!
For Huli species, the ear is the most sensitive and delicate part of their body.
Hearing her scream in agony, Ning Xue's gaze trembled and she let out a sigh as she took Yao Lian properly in her hands.
"You also tried to kill me, weren't you..."
Yao Lian replied "I-It's because you were killing my beasts and ruining my fun."
Nerves popped in Ning Xue's forehead "Ruining your fun?" she thought of snapping the fox's neck.
"I don't like people like you... who can't value life."
However, controlling her anger, she tossed the fox to Chi Shui's lap and went back to sit beside Zhao Tian, a grumpy look on her face.
Zhao Tian had a frown on his face looking at Yao Lian as he was also displeased by her ideology of killing people for fun.
He raised his arm and gently wrapped it around Ning Xue as he pulled her closer "Xue'er..."
Ning Xue hugged his neck and buried her face in his chest as he comforted her.
Yao Lian rolled her body on Chi Shui's lap and clutched her ears with her paws "Urgh, it hurts.."
Chi Shui pouted her lips and gave a bonk on her head "That's what you get for killing people. I didn't know that you were the cause of all that chaos. Hmph..."
Fei Ziyu and Fei Lingxi giggled in their minds as they found this fox cute.
At this time, wearing shorts and a t-shirt, Chi Miya came there and saw that they were conversing "Oh, the fox woke up?"
Zhao Tian glanced at her and patted his lap "Miya..."
With a soft smile, she came and sat on his lap as he wrapped his left arm around her waist.
Yao Lian glanced at all the women in the living room and muttered in his mind 'He has women left and right eh.'
Xia Shenyi rolled her eyes 'So she is a brat with absurd power...'
With a slight frown she asked "And what happened to you? Why are you now in this fox form?"
"Weren't you like a woman before?"
Yao Lian took a quick glance at Zhao Tian and feeling his gaze, her body trembled as she began to reply "T-This is our Huli Species' secret and this is an inherent power only for royal Hulis."
"We can burn our life energy for immense power for a short amount of time."
Xia Shenyi narrowed her eyes upon hearing this "Inherent power only to Hulis? But I am sure... there are many other techniques to burn your own life energy as a last-ditch effort."
Upon hearing this, Yao Lian nodded her head "Yeah, burning life energy is not something so rare... but sucking other people's life energy is."
Zhao Tian gave a faint nod "Yeah, I felt it when you sucked my life energy. So, you suck other people and restore your life energy?"
Yao Lian sat comfortably on Chi Shui's lap and nodded her head "Yeah..."
Ning Xue gently pulled her head from Zhao Tian's neck and asked "At first, you looked like a mature woman... but then you looked like a teenage woman, and then you turned into a fox. Is this all because of burning your life energy?"
With a nod, Yao Lian spoke "Yeah... that is because of that."
As they were speaking, Zhao Tian slowly slid his hand under the hem of Chi Miya's t-shirt and caressed her soft abdomen with his fingers.
Chi Miya giggled and turned her head, planting a kiss on his cheek.
Zhao Tian glanced down at her chest and saw her nipples perked on the fabric of her t-shirt.
Moving his lips close to her ear, he whispered "You are not wearing a bra?"
Chi Miya giggled and looked down at his lips "Well, you know they are quite big and it feels quite suffocating to wear a bra all the time."
"I see..."
Muttering under his breath, he pushed his hand upward inside her tishirt, reaching her bountiful boob as he squeezed it within his palm "Then let me hold it for you..."
"Haha..."
Chi Miya giggled and a sudden moan escaped her lips, as he pinched her nipple. "Hmmngh~~"
Xia Shenyi smiled wryly to see him acting naughty when they were having serious discussions "What a pervert..."
Ning Xue didn't mind that much and again glimpsed at Yao Lian "So, now for you to restore your previous form, you have to suck someone else's life energy?"
Yao Lian tilted her head and spoke "Uh... yeah."
Ning Xue's lips twitched in frustration "So you have to kill to get that energy... Your whole being screams evil. Let us just kill you, so there will be no future troubles, right, Tian?"
As she turned her head to Zhao Tian, she saw him passionately kissing Chi Miya, his hands playing with her boobs.
"Hnngh~ Tian... kiss me more."
*smooch* Zhao Tian took sips of her delicate lips, tasting the velvety texture of her pink lips.
"Miya..."
Letting out a deep sigh, she raised her hand as golden flames flickered on her palm "Well, he will agree with me, so I shall just kill you."
Wha- Yao Lian was dumbfounded and hurriedly replied "Oi, Oi... I just need live energy doesn't mean I can only get from humans."
Huh? Xia Shenyi raised an eyebrow and asked "So you can absorb life energy from astral beasts too?"
Looking at her, Yao Lian nodded her head "U-Uh.. En. Not only animals... anything that has life energy, I can suck that energy to replenish my own life energy., like plants, birds, fishes...."
Ning Xue was quite surprised "No wonder, you were burning your life energy so casually... you can get them back easily."
"Yeah... so don't kill me."
Zhao Tian pulled back his lips from the kiss and glanced at Yao Lian "Well, now that you are here... you can stay here as my slave."
"You have to obey my every command... if not, I will kill you."
Yao Lian narrowed her eyes and revolted "I am the princess of the Huandi Empire and I need to act to your commands, huh?"
Hm? Zhao Tian's gaze squinted and she felt a shiver run down her spine as her head lowered "I-I shall Master..."
Even though she says that, she was fuming in her heart 'Once I gain my strength back, I will break out of his slave spell and run away from here.'
'Fighting him is dangerous... and there is that Empyreal Flame bearer too.'
'More than all of that, this new woman.. her aura alone is scary. So escaping is the best route.'
"Arghhhhh!!" But in the next instant, she felt a shock and her fox body twitched in pain.
"W-Whattt is h-h-happening?"
Hugging Chi Miya in his arms, Zhao Tian let out a chuckle "You must have thought about something which is against me."
