Text Game: It All Began when a Cat-eared Girl Took Me In-Chapter 839 - 418 The Arrival of Grey Dream, Please Join Me in This Dream_2
Shen Heng adjusted the scene in his hand.
A breathtakingly beautiful woman with black hair appeared in all the knights’ mirrors.
Tian Heng spoke, "Her body also bears the blood of our Shadow Clan’s royal lineage. I believe they are the descendants of the other small group of living chambers from our battleships who ended up on other continents."
"Her mother, who is the former head of the Sophia Family, Xiya Sofia, the one currently causing an uproar outside Dusk City, has reached the Sixth-order Transcendence Tier. It must have fully activated the bloodline within her."
"We can use her as leverage."
Shen Heng said, "Don’t the humans of this world care deeply about their relatives? She does not remember she is from the Shadow Clan, so I want to see whether she cares about her family or not!"
"What about the god who is spying on us?"
"What good does telling Him do? This is an overt scheme, if He has the ability, let Him stop us by His own hand!"
"Then I’ll await your good news. Everyone is ready; the day has finally arrived. We will once again accomplish the act of Detachment that only the combined strength of countless Shadow Clan members could achieve in this world!"
Boom!—
This is the sound of the giant waves crashing against the Blessing Glory of the Dusk Divine Tree.
Instigated intentionally by Donghuang Luoshuang during the fourth conflict, she utilized the Power of Divine Tree from the Tree of Wu Xia to redirect most of the force towards Dusk City.
When the waves soared to thousands of meters high, the sea water, concentrated with a massive amount of the Power of Divine Tree, ruthlessly opened up the land near the city, threatening to destroy the city itself.
"Cease your actions, don’t you want this person back?"
A dull voice echoed throughout the entire city.
At the edge of Dusk City, in front of the suddenly appearing Hooded Man, floated a gorgeous woman.
Xiya’s pupils slightly contracted.
"Sister Donghuang, stop."
"What’s the matter?"
Donghuang Luoshuang, somewhat reluctantly, parted the gathered tides to either side.
If it had gone ahead, the Blessing Glory of Dusk City might have been breached with a large hole.
Xiya fell silent for a while, then said, "That’s my daughter."
Why was Melissa captured by them?
Hadn’t she been properly hiding in her own realm world?
With her daughter taken as a hostage, their aggressive plan could no longer proceed.
Donghuang Luoshuang was stunned, "How is your daughter so big? Didn’t they execute your man for making you pregnant when you were so small?"
The white-haired Lolita couldn’t help but shout, "That’s not the point! And it’s not my daughter who has grown big, but that I have become small. Initially, I wasn’t smaller than Ya’er or small Melissa!"
Although when that short-lived ghost found her amnesiac, she wasn’t much older either. Thinking about it, she really was an innocent sweet girl then, unlike Ya’er’s two daughters whose simplicity was not even worth mentioning.
"What do we do now?"
"I’ll first ask him if we can exchange for the hostage he holds. I can make a contract to never return to Dusk City," said Xiya.
The white-haired Lolita took a deep breath and communicated her thoughts to the Hooded Man.
Unexpectedly, the Hooded Man’s voice was grave, "Trade with yourself, seal the Yuan Su within your body, go through the scrutiny of the Dusk True Canon, and willingly come inside."
"Impossible, how would I know that even if I do this, you would release the hostage?"
Xiya was no fool; giving up control to others would only progressively worsen the situation.
And where had Andreas gone?
As the City Owner, how could he hand the True Canon over to someone else?
Wait, this style wrapped in shadows, and cloaked with a hood, those distinctive double pupil patterns on the clothes... Isn’t this the continent and organization known as the ’Shadow Merchant’, notorious not just for their unpleasant reputation like the Church of Truth and Disaster Church, but also for always stirring up trouble?
The Hooded Man spoke coldly, "This is an order, you have no room to refuse. Starting now, every ten minutes, I will cut off one of her fingers. Decide for yourself."
Xiya immediately exclaimed angrily, "If you dare touch her, believe it or not, I’ll make sure we all go down together!"
"Go down together? Are you sure? Oh pathetic person who bears the Shadow Clan bloodline yet has lost your former glory."
The Hooded Man lifted his hood, revealing silver-white hair and pale purple eyes, and looked sadly at Xiya.
"My name is Shen Heng, the leader of the seven knights of the Round Table of Transcenders, Xiya, right? We shouldn’t be fighting here; we should join forces and fly to the other side of the world, back to our original homeland," he said deeply.
Xiya sneered, "What Shadow Clan, what bloodline. Don’t try to bewitch me."
Having lived for over three hundred years, she had seen her fair share of cults’ seductive tactics which almost always began with praise like being a ’Celestial Being’, possessing divine blood, being a god’s agent on earth, a child of god, destined for great things.
Essentially, they were all about flattering you until you were disoriented.
Actually, there were not so many children of gods.
In Xiya’s view, gods were aloof, even the evil ones, and it was impossible for them to have any interaction with mortals.
Who would let a mortal touch their unattainable bodies?
Unless... forget it, there are no such lascivious gods in the world. The goddesses of lust fabricated in those myths, giving mortals "that something," are just nonexistent fictitious stories.
A certain pink-haired Lolita: "Meow meow?"
"Don’t believe it?"
The silver-haired man pointed to his own eyes and said, "Look at my hair, and my eyes, these are signs of our bloodline being from the same source."
Xiya sneered, "Even if what you are saying is true, so what?"
No matter how floridly you speak, true or false, I just don’t believe it.
"Don’t you want to return to your original homeland?"
"This is my homeland!"
At that moment, another hooded man emerged from the shadows and said ominously, "Tian Heng, I knew it was impossible to persuade her. Luweiya was raised by us, and she is so stubborn. Don’t even mention this individual who has completely forgotten our Shadow Clan’s glory. Besides the thread of blood in her body, she is utterly unworthy of being our kin."
"Tian Heng..."
"What more nonsense is there to say?"
Tian Heng manifested a gigantic shadow hand and reached for the floating Melissa, clutching the unconscious woman in his hand.
Squeak—Squeak—
That was the creepy sound of bones being squeezed.
"Aaaaah—"
Melissa woke up under such pain, letting out a hoarse scream of agony. Visibly, her body became flattened, and blood seeped out from the edges of the shadow giant hand.
"Stop it!"
Xiya’s body trembled slightly.
She couldn’t bear to watch her daughter die before her eyes.
"I will seal my own power, but you have to send her out first."
Tian Heng mocked, "I’ll count ten seconds, and after ten seconds, I will crush her to death."
"Ten, nine, eight, seven..."
"I said I agree to your demand! Stop," Xiya shouted.
Donghuang Luoshuang spoke solemnly, "Sister Xiya, don’t believe their lies. As long as you are here, they dare not kill your daughter, but if you agree to their demands, it might be a different story."
"I know."
"Mother, don’t..."
Melissa, catching a glimpse of that petite figure and hearing the conversation, uttered a weak voice from her lips.
She didn’t want her important family members to sacrifice themselves for her.
"Don’t what?"
Tian Heng frowned, tightening his grip slightly.
Seeing Melissa’s breath getting fainter, Xiya clenched her fists and forcibly suppressed her own power.
Tian Heng flicked his wrist, and a silver-white metallic hoop flew from his wrist. Donghuang Luoshuang wanted to intercept it but was stopped by Xiya’s pleading look.
Subsequently, the metal hoop bound Xiya and dragged her toward the city.
Donghuang Luoshuang tried several times to pull her back, but she knew she had no right to make decisions for others.
Was there any way out now?
Just then.
Inside Dusk City, at the location of the Hecmedea family, a sealed blood-red portal was violently pried open.
In an instant, a massive tree too large to see the top, along with a kilometer-long phantom dragon, appeared in the sky over Dusk City.
A snow-haired, red-eyed, cat-eared girl stood on the dragon’s head.
"It is only polite to reciprocate. I invite you all to join me in a shared dream."
