"If you don't want to die, give me the Storage Ring," Ye Shikai grasped Ji Qian's slender neck. Although the Demon Addiction had erupted, Ye Shikai was still vastly outnumbered. Like locusts, the soldiers kept coming wave after wave, seemingly endless. Most crucially, Ye Shikai lacked a weapon to wield.
Ji Qian stared at Ye Shikai fiercely. She knew well the power of the Netherworld Blade, and if Ye Shikai got his hands on it, this place would turn into hell. Moreover, the Storage Ring contained many pills and treasures, representing an endless source of combat power.
"The Storage Ring is not with me. Killing me… would be pointless," Ji Qian said with a cold laugh. Ye Shikai, in anger, tightened his grip, but after a moment's thought, he ultimately let Ji Qian go. Keeping her alive was still useful.
"Let's leave now," Ye Shikai shouted as he wrapped his arm around Ji Qian, taking cover behind a barricade to wait for the soldiers to arrive.
