Why Are the Psychos Obsessed with a Mere NPC?
Chapter 157 - 147: Auditorium 2"I said I’m not selling it to him."
Shen Yinhong flicked her fingers, shooting out green spider silk that wrapped around the man’s legs. She yanked it forcefully to the side.
BANG! Li Qihang fell to the ground.
He looked up in disbelief. "How can this be? Your spiritual power isn’t actually F!"
With low spiritual power, it’s impossible to master a Contracted Beast’s abilities so quickly, even with a one hundred percent voluntary Contract.
Not to mention she was using power equivalent to a mature Contracted Beast.
"Your spiritual power is S, but you lied and said it was only F?"
Li Qihang scrambled to his feet, his joy outweighing his anger. "Your dad agreed to my marriage proposal. No matter how high your spiritual power is, you belong to me. Once you’re married into my family, that Green Spider Ant will be mine anyway."
Jian Yu arrived just in time to hear this, and she shot Shen Gu a complicated look.
Shen Gu denied it. "He’s talking nonsense. My father is the Family Head. He’s the one who makes all decisions about marriages in the family. I’ve never even heard of this."
Shen Gu knew he wasn’t that strong, so he had called over a dozen people before coming.
He said menacingly, "You want to marry Shen Ming, so what does that have to do with my cousin? Since Shen Ming agreed to it, I’ll make the decision on my father’s behalf and let you marry Shen Ming."
It was the first time Jian Yu had ever seen Shen Gu act so tough.
Shen Yinhong trotted over.
She instinctively hid behind Jian Yu and tattled, "He made a bet with that guy, using my Contracted Beast as the wager, and he lost."
Jian Yu, feeling a bit awkward, tugged her arm and pulled her out in front.
Shen Yinhong thought Jian Yu wanted her to be tougher.
She straightened her back, mimicking her cousin. "That’s right!"
Li Qihang spat. "Right about what! Do you have any idea how much stuff your old man took from my family? Can you even afford to pay it back?"
Shen Yinhong didn’t want Jian Yu to look down on her.
She put her hands on her hips, her attitude even more arrogant than Shen Gu’s. "Then you can go marry my dad."
Li Qihang erupted in curses. "Am I a fucking idiot? Marry your dad? Are you out of your mind!"
Shen Gu waved his hand to summon his people. "Don’t let him in. Kick him right out of the academy."
A crowd of people swarmed over, and Li Qihang’s expression turned ugly.
His family was quite powerful, just not powerful enough to compare to people like Ling Yanzhi.
Li Qihang didn’t believe the Shen family could ever pay off that debt. Before leaving, he made a threat: "Just wait until I marry you. We’ll see if I don’t fuck you up."
Jian Yu’s face darkened.
’After saying something like that, who would dare marry him?’
She couldn’t understand how someone could be so smug, or where his confidence came from.
Jian Yu knew Li Qihang wasn’t the main point.
Her gaze fell on the man standing to the side.
A wolf mask, a golden one. It was said that on Emperor Wolf Star, gold was the highest Level.
Jian Yu’s brow furrowed. ’Li Qihang has probably walked right into someone else’s trap.’
’Their target probably isn’t the Green Spider Ant either.’
After all, even if Shen Yinhong were willing to sever the Contract, the Green Spider Ant would still have to agree to choose a new master.
If the Green Spider Ant were so easy to form a Contract with, it wouldn’t have been passed over round after round, only succeeding in the eighth.
Jian Yu’s intuition was, as always, spot on.
Yan Yu, wearing the golden mask, walked up to her. "I don’t want the Green Spider Ant. I’d like to ask you to help my sister form a Contract."
Shen Yinhong blocked his path. "What does your bet have to do with Jian Yu? If your sister wants to form a Contract, she should do it herself. Win or lose, you should be dealing with Li Qihang."
"You may have misunderstood me."
Yan Yu’s tone held a hint of apology. "Student Li said he knew you and promised that through you, I could meet Student Jian Yu, who is standing behind you."
With his height advantage, his gaze easily fell upon Jian Yu.
A hint of arrogance crept into Yan Yu’s voice. "I assume you’ve heard of the Yan Family. If the Contract is successful, you can name your price."
He stated bluntly, "My power may not be greater than Ling Yanzhi and the others, but I am a Level 2S Awakener. Furthermore, I can guarantee that I will respect and cherish you more than they do. If you wish to become the mistress of the Yan Family, you can do so right now."
A wave of power sent Shen Yinhong flying back.
A Wolf Soul materialized in mid-air, pressing down on everyone present.
Yan Yu leaned down, his voice dropping low. "You’ve been with them for so long; you should see things clearly by now. They just see you as a toy. How can a mere plaything compare to the dignity of being the mistress of the Yan Family?"
The corners of his mouth lifted, giving Jian Yu no chance to speak.
"You’re very lucky to have an Awakened Soul Beast that can soothe Alien Beasts. But that alone isn’t enough. You’re too weak. You’ll still be nothing more than their plaything. You’d be better off returning with me to Emperor Wolf Star. There, I will give you the status and honor you deserve."
Jian Yu activated her Star Brain, and a screen materialized in mid-air.
She didn’t set it to private, searching for the Yan Family right in front of Yan Yu.
"Oh, so it’s *this* Yan Family." Jian Yu saw the data profile, which indicated Yan Yu had a ’white moonlight’ he doted on mindlessly, as well as a sister with very low spiritual power.
She looked up at Yan Yu, whose expression was cracking. "Are you done?"
Yan Yu’s face was grim. "What do you mean by that?"
Jian Yu didn’t respond.
She looked up, and a purple, gradient Jellyfish appeared out of thin air, attacking his Beast Soul directly.
Beaten back step by step, blood trickled from the corner of Yan Yu’s mouth.
His expression shifted slightly. Realizing he had underestimated Jian Yu’s strength, he decisively recalled his Beast Soul.
"I don’t think there was anything wrong with what I said. You should think it over carefully."
Yan Yu snorted coldly. As he left, he silently mouthed the word "plaything."
Jian Yu twitched her finger.
Halfway there, Yan Yu suddenly dropped to his knees.
He whipped his head around, glaring viciously at Jian Yu.
His Spirit Domain was in chaos and his Soul Beast was on the verge of rampaging. Not daring to delay, Yan Yu downed a vial of medicine and left quickly.
Jian Yu turned back to look at the crowd of weaklings on the floor.
Shen Gu was a bit dejected. "Is the gap between a Level 2S and an A that big?"
He had almost collapsed just like everyone else.
Shen Gu whispered, "I need to ask Chairman Xi for a few more powerful people. I wonder if Yan Yu is participating in the tournament. I’d love to see Chairman Xi beat him to a pulp."
Shen Yinhong pressed her lips together, a fire igniting in her eyes.
Jian Yu thought she was about to say something motivational, like how she was going to work hard and get stronger.
But instead, she suddenly blurted out, "I’m going back to the auditorium to pray again. This has been so unlucky."
Jian Yu: "..."
Shen Gu had a feeling Yan Yu wouldn’t give up and would come back for them. "Yu, how about I have my men escort you back to the Chairman’s side? Remember to take the private elevator."
"I’ll go pray too." Jian Yu hesitated for a moment before following them.
’It’s not like I can keep avoiding them forever.’
’With my current power, I might even be able to capture them directly.’
Jian Yu stepped into the auditorium. The solemn atmosphere was so oppressive her breathing pattern changed.
In the blink of an eye, the scene before her shifted, and Shen Gu and Shen Yinhong inexplicably vanished.
Jian Yu nervously pressed her lips together and stopped walking.
’This must be an illusion,’ she suspected.
But after a few minutes, she still couldn’t see Shen Gu or the others.
It was quiet, somber. The Beast God Statue in the auditorium seemed to be shrouded in a terrifying shadow.
The red thread on her wrist suddenly pulsed, and Jian Yu’s heart began to race.
The fear in her eyes dissipated. She lowered her gaze, hiding the complicated emotions within.
An icy coldness wrapped around her wrist. Jian Yu glanced down, resisting the urge to complain.
’One after another, they all want to restrain my Soul Beast. But my useless self just had to go and create a fake one.’
Someone approached from behind, and an arm wrapped tightly around her waist.
Jian Yu hesitated for a moment, then began to struggle frantically, playing along.
"Don’t move." Si Xu’s breathing grew ragged, his gasps coming one after another.
Jian Yu’s voice trembled. "Si Xu?"
A flurry of biting and sucking followed, and Jian Yu lost all her strength under his control.
She didn’t smell any medicinal fragrance, yet her consciousness was already growing hazy.
Her lips parted slightly, her breaths accompanied by soft gasps.
Still not satisfied, the man exhaled softly.
He held her and let out a low, depraved chuckle.
"This feels so good."
