The continuous flow of deathly energy was absorbed by her body, and the room filled with black mist finally brightened. As the room became brighter, Huang Quan also saw the source of the deathly energy.
Lying on the ground in the room was a young man with exquisite features and a clean appearance. His long, raven-black hair was disheveled and scattered. He had his eyes closed, an expression of pain, and appeared as fragile as a porcelain doll that could break at any moment.
The dense deathly energy continued to seep out from the young man’s body, and the black mist enveloped him like a vast net, as if it might take his life at any moment.
Watching this scene unfold, Huang Quan fell into silence.
When she had entered, her intent was only to absorb the deathly energy and understand the situation. If it was genuinely deathly energy emitted by someone near death, she planned to absorb it without getting involved. But now…
The person emitting the deathly energy was so delicate and beautiful. Should she save him or not?
A little guy with devil horns and wings on her back stood with arms crossed and said sternly, “You are Huang Quan, the evil spirit. Have you ever seen an evil spirit saving someone?”
A little guy with a radiant halo and tiny white wings on her back said gently, “But right now, Quan Quan is not an evil spirit; she’s a human. As the saying goes, ‘Saving a life is better than building a seven-level pagoda.’ How can Quan Quan not save someone?”
The devilish little guy grumbled, “What’s in it for you if you save them?”
The pure little angel replied, “He is good-looking. It’s pleasing to the eyes.”
The devilish little guy roared in frustration, “Appearance won’t get you anything in the end!”
The pure little angel just went, “La la la…”
“I think I can save him,” Huang Quan said. “I’m a good person, and I can’t just stand by and watch someone die.”
The devilish little guy was left speechless.
Huang Quan approached, intending to help the young man up. However, just as her hand was about to touch his, the young man, who had kept his eyes closed until now, suddenly opened them.
His clear, deep, and cold black eyes locked onto Huang Quan’s gaze.
Seeing those clear and deep eyes, Huang Quan paused.
Seeing Huang Quan’s face, the young man frowned and, despite the pain in his body, looked at her and asked, “Why are you here?”
The young man’s voice was melodious, clear, and cold like frost, with a hint of huskiness that made people want to hear more.
Huang Quan raised an eyebrow and looked at the young man, not answering his question but instead asking, “Do you know me?”
The young man was taken aback for a moment, realizing that he had misspoken. He quickly shook his head and said, “I don’t know you.”
“But you asked how I got here,” Huang Quan said. “That implies you know me.”
The young man, still frowning, replied, “I told you, I don’t know you.”
Clearly, he knew.
But if he didn’t want to admit it now, Huang Quan had no intention of pressing further. She said, “I’m here to save you.”
“Save me?” The young man chuckled coldly. “Normal people die when they touch me. How do you plan to save me?”
“Dying when they touch you?” Huang Quan looked surprised. “Isn’t that a bit exaggerated?”
“It’s not exaggerated, it’s true…” The young man didn’t get to finish his sentence before he froze.
Huang Quan shook his hand, causing him to stop, and said, smiling, “See, I touched you, and nothing happened.”
“Huang Quan, are you insane?” The young man angrily asked, “You’ll die!”
“You said you didn’t know me.” Huang Quan grinned. “But you know my name.”
“Is that the point?” The young man looked at Huang Quan’s playful expression with a trace of helplessness. “The point is, you’re going to die!”
Seeing the deathly energy spreading from his own arm to Huang Quan’s hand and then into her body, the young man immediately struggled to free himself from her grip.
