Chapter 45: The Prisoner of the Steps

I couldn't see anything, all I saw was darkness, boundless darkness, darkness that could be terrifying just by looking at it. For the latest free chapters of this book, please visit wèn. In this darkness where she couldn't see her fingers, only Xiang Yantian stood there alone, although she was a peerless student of the Cloud Sect, but in the face of this endless darkness, she could only fear from the bottom of her heart.

Facing the darkness alone, her heart and body were constantly trembling, and at this moment how she wished that there would be a light in front of her, even if it was a small light in the past. The heavens seemed to hear her heart, and just after she had this thought, a point of light the size of a needle's eye suddenly appeared in the distant darkness.

Her dark eyes reflected pin-and-eye spots, her eyes filled with longing for light, and she felt that she had been in the darkness for too long, too long, so long that even she didn't know how long it had been. All she knew was that the darkness had tormented her to the point where she was not presentable.

Stretching out his hand, expecting to touch that glimmer of light, but out of reach. Standing on tiptoe, trying to chase the little bit of light that will disappear at some point, but he is weak. At this moment, she felt as if she had changed back into the weak and helpless girl again.

In the dark, she suddenly felt a little cold in her body, and slowly squatted down, she curled up and hugged her body.

"Uh......" Xiang Yantian suddenly felt that his head hurt, rubbed his head, and struggled to open his eyes.

Was that darkness just a dream? But the feeling of powerlessness is real. She felt a mess in her head, unable to remember even what had happened, and she couldn't help but frown.

Looking around, she realized that she was lying in a filthy cell, where there was nothing, and the smooth black stone was unusually cold from the constant dampness. No wonder I was woken up.

Where is it? Shaking her aching head, she finally remembered that she seemed to be plotting to make someone worse, and she clearly remembered that she heard a rough man's voice before she fell unconscious, as if she had said something "three steps down", and the old man who looked like a gentleman before seemed to call him "King".

Great King, in this world, the only people who dare to call it so are those who are copycat bandits. Realizing this, her face turned abruptly and she immediately got up from the ground, and she was relieved to see that her clothes were still neat and tidy. Great, the situation hasn't gotten bad enough yet.

"Three steps down? Is it the legendary No. 1 in the rivers and lakes? What a name it deserves! She didn't know how long she had been in a coma, but her head still couldn't stop dizzying, and she remembered some of the famous drugs on the rivers and lakes that Yan Yu's mother-in-law had introduced, including this "three-step down". No matter how strong your martial arts are, no matter how deep your internal strength is, as long as you are poisoned, you will inevitably lose all your internal strength within three steps, and then become unconscious.

"Whew-" Slowly exhaling, she subconsciously groped beside her body, but she was stunned when she fumbled like this. The sword is lost! The sword that had been with her for three years, day and night, had been taken away! It was something that Yan Qing cherished very much, and handed it to her, but now she didn't even take care of it.

Biting her bottom lip tightly, she slammed her fist into the ground. After only three steps to fall, she was really weak, even the fists that smashed on the ground were so soft and weak. She hated herself, hated herself for being too careless, knowing that the old man had a ghost, she still followed him into the enemy's territory. She regretted it, regretted her pride. regretted his ignorance, and he didn't even think that the other party would take such a degrading measure.

Becoming someone else's prisoner is something she has never thought about since she was a child, but she didn't expect it to fall on her head today. As the Emperor's daughter, she had never thought about herself in a prison cell, not even in the dangerous circumstances of three years ago, her mind only echoing the thought of her death.

However, the time for despair has not yet come. She struggled to get up from the ground, and a gleam flashed in her eyes: "You must find a chance to escape!" ”

The cell was made entirely of hard black stone on all sides, and even the only door that could be seen outside was made of steel. Through the cell door, Xiang Yantian couldn't see any other cells, and it seemed that his own room was still specially made.

Giving up the idea of breaking down the door, she quietly stood by the door, her eyes fixed on the guards walking back and forth not far away, hoping to find a chance to escape from the cell.

"How's it going, what's going on with the guy in the special cell?" A man's gruff voice came from the hallway.

There was a hint of delicacy in that rough voice, which gave Xiang Yantian a sense of déjà vu, that is, the man's voice she heard before she fell unconscious! So, after a little tidying up, she lay back where she had been, closed her eyes tightly, and pretended to be unconscious.

"Crunch-" The sound of the cell door opening. This was followed by a rustle of footsteps, which stopped abruptly when they reached Xiang Yantian's vicinity.

"Hey, isn't the little beauty awake yet?" There was a hint of banter in the man's voice.

At this moment, Xiang Yantian's body couldn't help but tremble slightly, this tone she felt was too much like a person, that mysterious flower thief! However, his voice was completely different from that of the flower thief, so she dismissed her own thoughts.

"Yo, the appearance of a coma is really cute!" The joking voice was getting closer and closer, and Xiang Yantian could feel that the other party was almost sticking to his face, "It's so cute that people can't help but want to kiss it." ”

Pinching her snow-white chin with one hand, the rugged man actually made a gesture to kiss her lips.

Ever since she had been harassed out of the valley, she had been harassed over and over again, and she thought it was the best time to get out of her cell. Finally, when the other party's lips were about to reflect her own lips, she moved!

Suddenly holding the opponent's wrist, and deftly flashing the opponent's lips, Xiang Yantian jumped directly behind the opponent and restrained the opponent with his backhand.

"Lead the way and let me out!"

But the other party ignored her words and fell silent.

"Lead the way, or ......" A turquoise leaf slipped out of Xiang Yantian's sleeve, fell to her fingertips, and was pressed against the other party's neck.

However, to her surprise, the other party completely ignored herself and struggled violently. Maybe it's because I've been hit by a three-step relationship, and my body hasn't recovered yet, or maybe the other party's strength is too great, and I was actually broken free by the other party, but grabbed my hand instead.

"Little beauty, this time you fell into my hands."
