There was another reason that Xi Yue was not willing to admit.

Ji Mingyu’s figure and voice were so similar to Nangong Yu. She couldn’t bear the pain as if her beloved was by her side, but she lost it again in the blink of an eye.

Seeing Xi Yue’s resolute attitude, Little Red Bird sighed and began to glow in red.

Soon, a faint circle of golden runes wrapped in red light appeared in the originally pitch-black night sky. As the red light shrank, these golden runes seemed to be swallowed up, silently melting into the red light.

Xi Yue took a deep breath and reached out her hand toward the red light. The pain that seemed to crush the bones of her hand surged up instantly, turning her complexion pale.

Despite that, she stepped into the red light without any hesitation.

However, before she could take a step forward, an immense force suddenly came from behind. It pulled her back and imprisoned her in his arms.

Xi Yue was shocked. When she looked up and saw Ji Mingyu’s cold eyes that seemed capable of swallowing people alive, her face turned pale.

However, it only took a moment for her to calm down and look up at the man without showing any signs of retreating. “Have you found me a long time ago?”

Ji Mingyu’s voice was deep and cold, as if it carried an endless chilling aura, “Do you think you could run away?”

Xi Yue’s eyes darkened. A cold light flashed in her hand. The silver needle at her fingertips transformed into countless phantoms, attacking the man before her.

Ji Mingyu tilted his head back slightly and reached out to grab Xi Yue’s wrist.

However, a strong force came from her waist abruptly. Xi Yue’s body flipped in the air, flying straight toward the gap in the barrier the Little Red Bird created.

The coldness in Ji Mingyu’s eyes became even icier. With just a casual flick of his hand, that hole in the barrier was patched up right away.

Xi Yue, who had been sent flying, was swiftly caught and brought back to his side.

The howling of the wind roared in her ears. Xi Yue felt her weight disappear due to extreme speed. It made her dizzy.

When she came to her senses, she had returned to Ji Mingyu’s sleeping chamber.

The bedroom’s doors and windows all slammed shut with loud thuds, one after the other.

Ji Mingyu unceremoniously tossed Xi Yue on the bed.

Just as she was about to get up, Ji Mingyu’s tall and cold body pressed directly on her.

Seeing the injury on Xi Yue’s hand and the blood seeping through her clothes, the anger on Ji Mingyu’s face was so intense it almost seemed to freeze the air around him with frost.

In that moment, aside from deep anger and loss, what he felt even more was heartache.

“I said, you belong to me. No one can hurt you without my permission, not even yourself!”

Spiritual power gathered in his palm and slowly caressed the wounds.

As the coldness spread, Xi Yue felt her wounds heal quickly. Even the pain from the crushed bones in her hand disappeared.

She was stunned momentarily. Then, she frowned and pushed Ji Mingyu away, “Let me go!”

Ji Mingyu pinned her down under him. His dark eyes flashed with a hint of red, “You hurt yourself, so now you have to face the punishment.”

Xi Yue was at a loss of words. She thought, “What does hurting myself have anything to do with you?“

However, given the situation was out of her control, she still gritted her teeth and said, “What do you really want?”

Ji Mingyu’s hand gently touched the girl’s soft, warm cheek. His cold fingertips slowly rubbed against her peach-blossom-like lips. His voice became deep and commanding, “I want you!”
