Li Ran rubbed the space between his brows; he seemed to be deep in thought.
How did he end up exposed?
He and Yue Jianli had long been tied down, but those matters were their secrets.
No one else was supposed to know about it.
Moreover, according to Sheng Zhixia's explanation, she already knew that they had done that thing.
How did she know about that?
"Could it be that Qin Ruyan leaked the matter?"
Li Ran thought about it and felt that it wasn't quite right.
Qin Ruyan had seen his murderous look and knew that he would never show mercy.
Moreover, if this matter was leaked out, it wouldn't be of any benefit to her.
If she wanted to use this secret to threaten him, then it would be even more impossible to tell anyone else.
“Looks like Sheng Zhixia has been monitoring me.”
Li Ran's eyes were ice-cold. "If she has any malicious intentions, even if she’s the royal daughter, I won’t give her mercy!"
The strongest person on the airboat was General Wang, who was only at the Nascent Soul Realm cultivator.
Li Ran could even behead a Deity Transformation cultivator; how could a mere Nascent Soul block him?
Li Ran walked out of the room and headed upstairs.
Sheng Zhixia was still tossing and turning in bed when the sound of knocking suddenly rang.
She cleared her throat. "Who is it?"
A guard's voice came from outside the door. "Reporting to Your Highness, the Sheng Zi Li said he has something to ask of you."‘
"Sheng Zi Li?" Sheng Zhixia was shocked. “Wait!"
She quickly got up and straightened her hair in the mirror. Then, she smoothed out the wrinkles on her clothes and sat down on the chair.
"Ahem, please invite Sheng Zi Li in."‘
"Yes. Please come in."
The guard opened the door, and Li Ran walked in with a smile. "Greetings, Your Highness."
Sheng Zhixia stood up. "Sheng Zi Li is too polite. Why are you looking for me?"
At that moment, the door closed.
Li Ran's smile instantly disappeared. He covered her mouth and pressed her onto the bed!
"Hmm!"
Sheng Zhixia's eyes were filled with fear. She did not know why he had suddenly made a move.
She momentarily even forget about resisting.
Li Ran activated the Disillusioned eye and scanned the room carefully to ensure no formations or mechanisms were present.
Then, he threw down a soundproof array.
He lowered his head and looked at Sheng Zhixia. His golden eyes were icy. "Tell me, what do you want?"
Sheng Zhixia muffled voice replied, “Wu, wu, wu, wu!"‘
"I forgot about covering your mouth. You can speak now."
Li Ran let go of her, and Sheng Zhixia got up and ran to the door.
However, after only two steps did she fell to the ground with a thud.
One could only see a red rope tying her up. Her hands were tied together and raised high above her head.
Her body was tied up in shame, revealing her curvaceous figure.
A wave of dark light lit up, and she was wrapped in an invisible force, hanging in the air.
Li Ran moved a chair and sat across from her.
"Princess Sheng, don't think of any tricks. You definitely don't know as many tricks as I do."
Sheng Zhixia said nervously, "I'm warning you, don't act rashly. There are all our Sheng Clan guards outside!"‘
Li Ran shrugged. "Then you can shout. But, first, let’s see if someone will come to save you."
"Someone come! Protect the Princess!" Sheng Zhixia shouted for a long time, but there was no response from outside.
She tried to use her cultivation, but a black blade of light hovered around her neck in the next second.
As long as there were any unusual movements, she would definitely be executed without hesitation.
Sheng Zhixia's pretty face was frosty as she growled, "I kindly invited you along with me. Why are you treating me like this?"
She had thought that Li Ran would do something indescribable to her.
"Good intentions?" Li Ran narrowed his eyes. "If that's the case, why are you spying on me?"
Sheng Zhixia was taken aback. "When did I spy on you?"‘
"You're still acting dumb?"
Li Ran smiled sinisterly. "Princess Sheng, you may have forgotten that I'm a member of the Devil Path. I'm good at torture!”
A dark light flashed in his hand, and a sharp dagger appeared.
She stood up and walked in front of Sheng Zhixia, gesturing back and forth on her body. The cold blade made her hair stand on end.
"What, what are you trying to do? I'm the princess of the Sheng Dynasty. You'd better not do anything rash!" Sheng Zhixia stammered.
Li Ran smiled. "Don't worry. Since Princess Sheng doesn't want to talk, let's play slowly."
"This fair and delicate skin is a good material for clothing. It would be a pity if it were to be cut, but I have to do it bit by bit."
"Clothes?"
Sheng Zhixia did not react.
"That's right. The upper body can be used as a waistcoat, and the legs can be used to hold the soles of the boots. As for the softest and most delicate legs, let's use them as gloves. must be extremely warm in winter." Li Ran licked his lips, portraying the picture of himself as a pervert.
Sheng Zhixia's entire body trembled, and the hairs on her back stood on end.
She gritted her teeth and said, "You devil, I won't let you off!"
"Don't worry, you won't die soon. My craftsmanship must be carried out while a person is alive. Only then can I achieve the maximum effect.
"Pain and anger will cause your muscles to tighten and your skin to tighten. This will make you softer and more elastic.'
"So be angry. This will only make me excited!"‘
Tsk tsk tsk!
Li Ran smiled strangely and licked the blade. Then, he turned around and spat.
He was too caught up in the act.
"From where?"
Li Ran seemed to be thinking seriously.
Sheng Zhixia stared blankly at him. Then, she felt the cold sensation of the tip of the knife, and tears suddenly filled his eyes.
"Pervert!"‘
After saying that, she started to cry.
Li Ran gulped. "Hey, I haven't made a move yet….”
Wahhh!
Sheng Zhixia burst into tears, her cries deafening.
Li Ran was dumbfounded.
"I was casually acting. Was I that scary?”
"You're an imperial daughter and a Golden Core Realm cultivator. Why are you crying?"
However, Sheng Zhixia was crying more and more vigorously. Her voice was like a demonic sound filling his mind, and Li Ran's head was as big as a battle.
An hour later…
Li Ran lay on the table, his eyes dull.
As for Sheng Zhixia, her eyes were red and swollen. The rain was about to stop, and she was sobbing.
"I say," Li Ran said slowly. "You should be able to tell that I was trying to scare you, right?"
"I cannot tell!"‘ Sheng Zhixia's voice was hoarse.
"It was clearly me who was under surveillance. Why are you crying so hard?" Li Ran felt extremely aggrieved.
"Who's spying on you?" asked Sheng Zhi Xia. “I have no idea what you are talking about."
Li Ran frowned. "Then how did you know about Yue Jianli and me?"
Sheng Zhixia was stunned.
Her face flushed red.
So this was what he was talking about!
