Chapter 206 Bloodthirsty
Nightfall felt an unprecedented surge of pleasure welling up inside him. He greedily drank Li Yanran's blood, as if it were the most delicious delicacy in the world!
Every drop of blood flowing into his throat felt like a flame igniting within him, a flame that raged through his meridians yet brought him an unprecedented sense of power.
"Ah... let me go... help me..."
Li Yanran felt a sharp pain in her neck, a pain like a sharp needle piercing her skin and reaching her very soul.
She tried desperately to push Ye Jingchu away, but his strength was astonishing, and her struggles were as futile as an ant trying to shake a tree.
She was horrified to discover that Ye Jingchu was actually sucking her blood. A wave of fear washed over her, instantly overwhelming her.
She began to regret coming here; every choice she made felt like a stairway to hell, and she was already trapped in it.
"Gu dong... gu dong..."
As time went by, Li Yanran's face grew paler and paler, like a flower that had lost its vitality and withered rapidly.
Ye Jingchu, however, wore a satisfied expression, his eyes gleaming with an eerie light, as if he were enjoying a grand feast.
He gripped Li Yanran's neck tightly, his hands like iron clamps, leaving her no way to escape and only able to await death in despair.
Just when Li Yanran thought she was going to die, Ye Jingchu finally let go. His eyes gradually regained their clarity, and a look of satisfaction appeared on his face!
That sense of satisfaction comes not only from the desire for food and drink, but more like a deep-seated joy that comes from being filled with strength.
Ye Jingchu threw Li Yanran to the ground as if she were a worthless piece of trash. Li Yanran's body hit the ground heavily with a dull thud.
Li Yanran tightly covered her neck with both hands, her eyes filled with fear and despair.
Her eyes widened as she stared at Ye Jingchu, a flicker of fear in them as if she were trying to find a glimmer of hope in him, even if it was just a faint glimmer of chance.
However, she could no longer make a sound; her throat felt as if it were being tightly gripped by an invisible hand. She had lost the strength to even move a finger, and her body was like an empty shell drained of life.
"The taste was not bad..." Ye Jingchu licked his lips, savoring the taste from earlier. The corners of his mouth turned up slightly, and the smile looked particularly sinister in the dim light.
His eyes gradually returned to their normal color, and the cold aura slowly dissipated, replaced by a profound and mysterious temperament.
Li Yanran used the last of her strength to crawl with difficulty to the door. Every movement she made felt like a tug-of-war with death, her body leaving a long trail of blood on the floor. Trembling, she reached out and finally managed to open the door.
Then, she staggered out of the room, crawling and whispering, "Help...help..."
Her voice was hoarse and weak, filled with endless fear and helplessness, echoing in the silent corridor, but it seemed to be swallowed by the darkness and received no response.
"Someone come here..." Ye Jingchu called softly into the shadows.
Soon, a man dressed in black appeared in the room. He looked at Ye Jingchu with a shocked expression, his eyes filled with disbelief.
Clearly, the man in black was quite surprised by Ye Jingchu's sudden appearance; his body trembled slightly, as if he had seen a ghost that shouldn't have appeared.
“I am not dead, there’s no need to be so surprised,” Ye Jingchu said calmly.
His tone was calm, yet it exuded an undeniable authority, an authority like that of a king descending, making the surrounding air heavy.
"Take this woman away and lock her up. Remember, don't let her die, and don't give her a chance to escape. Also, prepare some nourishing foods for her to help her recover."
After speaking, Ye Jingchu turned and left, his steps steady and powerful, each step like stepping on the strings of fate. The man in black was left standing there, dumbfounded, unsure what to do.
The man in black's gaze shifted back and forth between Ye Jingchu's departing figure and Li Yanran, who was lying on the ground barely alive, a complex expression flashing in his eyes.
"Yes…"
The man in black led Li Yanran away, carefully lifting her as if she were a fragile porcelain doll. Li Yanran trembled slightly in his arms, staring blankly ahead, like a puppet without a soul.
The man in black led her through a winding corridor to a dark and damp basement.
The basement was filled with a rotten smell, and water droplets hung on the walls, dripping down as if it were the sound of time passing.
The man in black placed Li Yanran on a dilapidated bed, then turned and left to prepare nourishing food, leaving only Li Yanran's faint breathing in the room.
Ye Jingchu, after consuming Li Yanran's blood, discovered that his body had undergone a strange change.
He could feel a powerful force surging within him, a force like a rushing river, seemingly about to break free from his physical constraints.
His senses became exceptionally sharp; he could hear the sound of leaves falling in the distance and see the slightest movement in the darkness.
Ye Jingchu found himself brimming with power, every pore on his body throbbing with excitement. He was certain that if he were to clash with Ye Jiuchen again, he would be able to defeat him this time.
As night fell, the moonlight bathed him in the courtyard, as if draping him in a layer of silver armor.
He slowly raised his hand, gently clenched his fist, and a slight popping sound came from the air.
"Heh," a cold laugh escaped from Ye Jingchu's mouth!
"It feels pretty good..." His eyes revealed a complex emotion, a mixture of wariness and disgust.
"Hehe, I see you really like this feeling!"
Just then, a night breeze blew by, carrying a slight chill, and the woman in black reappeared in sight without warning, like a ghost.
Ye Jingchu subconsciously looked up, his eyes widening instantly. He saw the woman in black sitting lazily on the roof of the house.
The moonlight shone on her, outlining her mysterious figure. Her legs swayed gently and rhythmically, as if she were watching an amusing farce.
“It’s you…” Ye Jingchu frowned, his voice low and cold, his eyes revealing his undisguised disgust for the woman in black.
Clearly, he had no desire to see this nightmarish presence.
The woman in black leaped gracefully from the rooftop, her movements as beautiful as a black butterfly.
She slowly walked towards Ye Jingchu, a strange light flickering in her eyes. She reached out, her cold fingertips gently touching Ye Jingchu's face; the touch was like a cold snake slithering across her.
"What, are you unhappy?" The woman in black's voice carried a hint of mockery. "You were quite excited when you were sucking blood just now!"
Ye Jingchu's body jolted violently, his face filled with shock and disbelief. He never imagined that his irrational behavior had been witnessed by this woman in black.
Before Ye Jingchu could recover from his shock and ask any questions, the black-clad woman's ghostly voice rang out again.
"What, surprised? Don't forget, I'm the one who saved your life. Every move you make is under my watchful eye!"
The woman in black swayed her slender waist as she walked step by step towards Ye Jingchu, exuding an invisible sense of oppression. She extended her long, thin fingers and gently touched Ye Jingchu's forehead.
Instantly, Ye Jingchu felt as if his body was bound by an invisible force, making him completely unable to move.
Immediately afterwards, a chilling sensation, as if from the depths of hell, swept over his entire body like a surging tide, making his very soul tremble.
"What did you do to me?" Ye Jingchu stared wide-eyed at the woman in black, her voice trembling slightly.
"It's nothing, just letting you experience what it feels like to be controlled by me."
The woman in black smiled slightly, revealing a smug grin. "You are now my slave and must obey my orders."
A deep sense of powerlessness welled up in my heart as I looked at the night scene, as if I were sinking into an endless dark swamp.
