Chapter 299: Abuse (35k)

"Claymore... in that world, for you to be beaten into this state, could it be that you encountered some top-tier Awakened Being?"

"Teresa, or Priscilla?"

Li Qingzi closed her eyes, feeling that large hand gradually slide down from the back of her head, stroking her cheek; a layer of fear suddenly emerged in her heart for no reason.

That was something Tao Baibai had never displayed before.

Prior to this, even when Tao Baibai touched her body, the sensation he gave her was nothing more than bone-chilling killing intent and that kind of uncomfortable sense of aggression.

Yet at this moment, she clearly detected a trace of a different kind of threat from the movement of that hand stroking her skin.

While Bai Cangshu asked about the mission world, his right hand continued to grope downward from the woman's smooth and delicate face; the skin on her slender, delicate neck had likely never been subjected to such caresses, and instantly, many fine "goosebumps" appeared.

A smile was evident on the corners of Bai Cangshu's mouth; he suddenly felt a new kind of pleasure.

His right hand stretched out from below the woman's neck, his thumb gently scraping against her exquisite collarbone; in his ears, the heartbeat of this powerful Reincarnator lost control and began to accelerate continuously.

"It... it was Teresa, and other Reincarnators... and my weapon's strength wasn't enough, so I was injured, but I killed two of those people, the losses were not small..."

Li Qingzi spoke, her speech speed becoming faster and faster, and her breathing also began to become disordered.

Terrible images began to appear in her mind; as one of the former Four Demons, who had once been under the command of the Supreme One and was about to team up with those guys like the 【Flame Demon】, she certainly knew best what the best way was for most Reincarnators to relieve stress...

Sex and slaughter.

In the Infinite Dimensional Space, with this kind of mission deployment mode, almost every Reincarnator was forced by pressure to the point of being unable to breathe; so-called ethics and morality simply could not control biological instincts.

The 【Slave Shackles】, a powerful prop originally used to capture precious Plot Characters, being abused as a tool for catching sex slaves was entirely a "market-driven" choice.

She knew very well that most slaves captured by other Reincarnators, as long as their faces were passable, regardless of gender, age, or status, could not escape the fate of being abused.

It was just that Tao Baibai's previous posture as a complete predator had made her ignore this point; now, the heat from that large hand of Tao Baibai's made her recall that the miserable fate of being a slave was not just about one's own resources being plundered.

Her own strength, her own body, her own Soul, no longer belonged to her...

Bai Cangshu's right hand continued downward, the skin below the collarbone was even more delicate, and her body began to have curves; the woman's heartbeat became increasingly obvious, and her breathing became rapid; Bai Cangshu suddenly lowered his head, looking down from behind at the changes on the woman's beautiful face.

That expression of fear and humiliation mixed together made him finally feel a trace of unusual pleasure.

Interesting, it was truly too interesting; this woman, who hadn't shown such a brilliant expression even when she was about to be killed by him, now made Bai Cangshu feel a trace of alternative satisfaction.

He had to thank the space's enhancement system, so that a woman whose strength was great enough to throw a car a hundred meters away and whose speed was fast enough to exceed the limit of ordinary human visual capture, not to mention muscle stiffness, even her skin remained as delicate and soft as before.

Of course, this was also thanks to the fact that this woman named Li Qingzi came from a wealthy background with astonishing influence, which allowed her to rise rapidly with smooth sailing, to the point that... she seemed to have never suffered this kind of injury.

【Sin Karma Sequence Synchronization Rate updated, Lust Sin synchronization rate: 18%】

Bai Cangshu's hand reached halfway into the woman's collar, and just as Li Qingzi's expression was about to turn to despair, it froze; he discovered that in this short moment of "teasing," his Lust Sin synchronization rate had risen by 9 percentage points, but more importantly, he discovered another thing.

"Your Haki, has it become weaker?"

Just as his hand touched the woman's chest, he noticed Li Qingzi subconsciously trying to activate Armament Haki, but that Haki was actually incredibly weak; it rose a fraction from her uninjured hand, then went silent.

His eyes shifted, and his expression turned somewhat cold.

"So, your injury in the Claymore world wasn't a problem of the enemy being too strong; you are becoming weaker."

Li Qingzi felt that large hand stop its movement and opened her eyes; at this moment, her mind was still difficult to calm, and without the will to resist, she spoke directly:

"... Yes... my Haki has been affected."

Li Qingzi's spirit was not as good as Hawkeye's to begin with; this was one of the reasons why, despite her extremely high level of sword skill specialization and possessing Hawkeye's sword skills, her combat power was far inferior to Hawkeye's.

So-called Haki is inherently a very special power, not only related to physique and cultivation but also related to one's own spirit.

The strong become stronger, the weak become weaker.

Hawkeye killed his way to become the world's greatest Great Swordsman one sword at a time; his sword, Yoru, naturally became the top-tier Supreme Grade Great Sword under the irrigation of that world-number-one spirit.

Li Qingzi had a fierce reputation among Reincarnators; she rose to prominence late, but her killing ability was the best among the Four Demons, and it was precisely because of this spirit that she became stronger the more she fought.

However, in the battle in the Pirate World, her pride was completely broken by Bai Cangshu, and she was collared and turned into a slave; even though her attributes, ability levels, and specializations had not changed in any aspect, she clearly felt that she was becoming weaker.

Now, this fact was also detected by Bai Cangshu.

Li Qingzi instantly felt terrifying malice, as if the desire from just a moment ago had never existed at all.

Li Qingzi looked at the coldness in the depths of Tao Baibai's eyes, and her heart turned cold.

This was a guy who completely looked down on weak people; even as a slave, she feared that if she lost her value, she would be abandoned immediately.

What kind of mentality did this kind of guy have? She knew that people indeed had various sexual fetishes, but what was this right now...

"I am seeking a Bloodline; I haven't enhanced a Bloodline yet, and I think that after obtaining a Bloodline, I will have a chance to break through my current limits!"

Li Qingzi felt disgusted by her own "fawning and ingratiating" behavior at this moment, but the pain she had suffered for so many days because of that Contract, as well as the fear from just now, all began to have an impact on her.

Bai Cangshu withdrew his hand and looked indifferently at this slave.

"Because your recovery ability isn't enough, you go chasing after recovery ability... Li Qingzi, that is why you have become weak."

Bai Cangshu's mind stirred, and he agreed to the request Li Qingzi had just made through the space; she could pay Dimension Points from her own resources to repair herself.

A large amount of green light instantly lit up from the Private Space, and Li Qingzi's incomplete body was repaired in an instant.

Bai Cangshu did not pay attention to her, but instead accepted another invitation and brought his female slave along.

Before Li Qingzi could even breathe a sigh of relief, she felt the space begin to distort, as if a Portal had been opened; before leaving, she saw the man who had just abused her self-esteem once again turn his head.

"If you become weaker, you will have no value."

Cold, cruel; Li Qingzi's mind was shaken; in this man's eyes, if she became weak, she probably wouldn't even qualify as a slave.

She forced herself to stabilize her mind and nodded to indicate that she understood.

The next moment, the space distorted, and the two instantly appeared in another space.

This was a space of about four or five hundred square meters, not exactly huge, but the ground throughout the entire space had been transformed into green grass, creating an atmosphere like the wild.

In one corner stood a Golden Tree, which at this moment had almost reached the top of this Private Space and was beginning to extend toward other places.

An exquisite small building surrounded by a wooden fence sat beneath the Golden Tree; at this moment, a woman with loose blonde hair was opening the small fence gate, signaling for the two to enter.

A flash of light appeared on Li Qingzi's face, and she had already put on a mask; the Avatar of 【Moon Demon】 was no longer in use; she did not want others to know that the dignified Moon Demon had been reduced to a slave; this was a bit of her own selfishness, she would rather others think that the Moon Demon had died.

Bai Cangshu walked into the exquisite wooden building; the interior had quite a lived-in feel, with all kinds of simple log furniture, sofas, and carpets, all fully equipped.

There was even tea brewed on the table.

That thin Mu, as well as the ponytail man whom he had met once before, were both in the room; the scar on the latter's face was quite distinctive, and the ponytail man was leaning against the wall at this moment, holding a teacup in his hand, sizing up Li Qingzi with a thoughtful look.

【Wu Shang】 frowned slightly; the woman following behind Tao Baibai exuded a piercing sense of sharpness, which was a sign that her sword art specialization was at least above level 9.

Once a skill enters the realm of reaching the pinnacle, one begins to touch upon more miraculous levels, and he was still a bit short of that now.

This level of specialization either requires a massive amount of time spent in cultivation and being extremely adept at the path, or it must be piled up using a huge quantity of Singularity; regardless of which, it shows that this woman is not simple.

Yet such a person was currently following behind Tao Baibai, eyes lowered and submissive, acting unusually docile.

Wu Shang was certain in his heart that the judgments of Mu and Tianyi were indeed without any problems; Tao Baibai was an abnormal fellow who could not be judged with the mindset of a Reincarnator from the same period as themselves, and it was best to treat him as a Title-level Reincarnator.

"Mr. Tao Baibai, I have felt the vigorous growth of that Golden Tree in the Naruto World; thank you very much for your help."

Tianyi's tone was melodious, and even though it was deliberate flattery, her tone did not appear servile.

"Help?"

Bai Cangshu's tone rose; he looked at the three people of this special team one by one, and although there existed a Special Item like 【Avatar】 that could completely block detection within the space, he could not see the other party's physical strength.

But many times, just by relying on one's gaze, one could see a person's state.

These three were clearly having a quite good time during this period; even Mu, who was once the weakest, now had a much firmer gaze.

"I was completely calculated by you, Miss Tianyi; that fellow Ping Zhongshi must have been intentionally dragged into the Golden Order by you, right? Truly a good method."

Bai Cangshu appeared to be praising, but Mu frowned; he listened, for they had already ceded most of the gains from the Naruto World to Tao Baibai, and she herself had even risked being killed to take action, locking the Hatred of the World Will onto herself, forced to use an item to exit the mission, suffering heavy losses.

But Tao Baibai's current posture clearly showed he was not prepared to appreciate the favor and still intended to hold a grudge against Tianyi?

"Mr. Tao Baibai, Tianyi she..."

Ring!

A sharp sound of a sword rang out; even though he knew that one could not harm each other in any form within the space, the terrifying sense of sharpness pressed before him still caused Mu to stop his words, unable to continue speaking.

He turned his head and saw the woman following behind Tao Baibai, her palms joined like a blade, pointing at him.

Seeing this, Tianyi reached out to stop Mu; she stood up, picked up the teacup, and came to Tao Baibai's side, offering it with both hands.

"Mr. Tao Baibai, have you heard of the 【Tarnished】?"

Bai Cangshu looked at the woman's still calm expression; facing his deliberate difficulty, she was not angry at all, but instead smoothly brought out benefits to continue making amends.

This woman gave him a strange feeling.

The other party was not a normal person either; she was an Outlier.

"Tarnished... is this the bait you are throwing out? Speaking of which, what was the code name of that Reincarnator who used two Chakra Blades? Was he fighting so desperately for you because he wanted to become a Tarnished?"

Bai Cangshu's smile was cruel, but Tianyi remained calm.

The two stared at each other; one was full of malice, while the other was indifferent to the death of the person who adored her; at this moment, both confirmed the other's difference.

In the end, both revealed a smile.

"It seems Mr. Tao Baibai is also willing to have a conversation with me."
