Chapter 360: He Must Be Trying to Force Her Hand

Two days passed just like that.

During this period, 【Simulated Life】 remained under seal, which left some visitors who had come by reputation somewhat disappointed.

After a period of trial operation, the 【Simulated Life】 project had already begun to spread within certain small circles, which also proved that Li Ang's line of thinking was indeed viable.

Unfortunately, Li Ang had to first resolve the trouble brought by the Sixth Review Bureau before he could use the Divine Tree to collect life energy again.

Unlike the Plant Union members, Christine's mood at this moment was absolutely wonderful.

After two days of waiting, she felt the timing was nearly ripe.

Since the person behind that planet's Viceroy had made no move for so long, there were only two possibilities.

One was that the force behind him would not act over such a trivial matter; the other was that the force behind him was not as terrifying as she had previously judged.

Whichever it was, it was a good thing for Christine.

'In that case, I can reopen negotiations tomorrow.'

With this thought, a faint smile surfaced on her fair features.

Christine felt the situation was entirely in her grasp; as long as she proceeded step by step from here, she could accomplish the objective of this trip.

The only thing she found a pity was that the strange plant was probably beyond her reach now.

Just as she was thinking this, a figure suddenly appeared inside the bedroom.

Once Christine saw the face of the newcomer, the corners of her mouth lifted slightly and she let out a charming laugh: "Entering a lady's bedroom uninvited is hardly something a gentleman should do, Viceroy Li Ang."

Then she asked, "But it's so late — what does Viceroy Li Ang need me for?"

"Could it be that—"

Her voice cut off abruptly; Christine ran her long tongue over her lips, and a flash of seduction passed through her crimson pupils.

Facing her teasing, Li Ang's expression did not change in the slightest; he merely said flatly, "There are some things that must not be touched."

"I'm afraid I don't quite understand what you mean, my lord." Christine first put on an innocent face, but then it swiftly turned sly. "But if my lord is willing to sell the patents for the Qinglie series, I wouldn't mind understanding a little."

She was not surprised that the dragon before her knew 【Simulated Life】's seal was connected to her — after all, she had never deliberately hidden her dealings with Buck.

For Christine, from the very moment things began, the initiative had already been in her hands.

Unfortunately—

Li Ang had no intention of following her script: "No need, I have a better solution."

Hearing this, Christine looked at the circular left eye with nine tomoe on the dragon before her, and an utterly absurd thought surfaced unbidden in her mind.

He's not planning to make a move, is he?!

Before the vampire could react, a terrifying spatial fluctuation suddenly erupted within the bedroom.

The next instant, the luxurious bedroom vanished, replaced by a somewhat barren, open plain.

Ama no Mizuho!

The essential little-black-room skill for murder and robbery.

As the 'jinchūriki of Kaguya,' Li Ang was naturally able to unleash this technique.

But because he had no use for it previously, and the expenditure was simply too great, Li Ang had never once released this technique.

However, after mastering the Third Law, he no longer had that concern.

At this moment, Christine first cast a somewhat bewildered glance around her surroundings, then turned her strange expression toward the distant dragon and asked, somewhat incredulously, "Are you mad?"

"You actually want to fight me?"

She had never imagined things would develop this way.

Because in Christine's view, even if the dragon opposite her could kill her, it would not change the Predicament faced by him — he would even face an even greater one.
