Chapter 3974: We Should Talk

You wish, wanting to use me as entertainment? Im not that bored. Li Qiye smiled while staring at the seahorse.

Tortures were meaningless for top existences like them. Even the cruelest treatment might only serve to help them pass the time, a little bit of entertainment.

Then I dont know anything. Yindu responded.

We both know that your death is only a matter of time. He said.

Everything is inevitable. However, Ill be here watching you die first. Yindu said.

I see. He paused before bringing up a different issue: What is your fear?

In fact, it wouldnt be an exaggeration to say that possessing this leaf meant having everything in ones grasp.

You know the answer. He added.

No. Yindu flatly replied.

He already came. It doesnt matter which form it was, the only thing clear was that he didnt save you. He said.

Hmph. Yindu scowled, the only one aware of what had happened in the distant past.

Im not the only person
