Invincible Soul Emperor

Chapter 964: Chapter 964: No Tricks

Snow Wei’s laughter echoed once more, and a mad gleam flickered in his eyes. ”You’ll change your mind, Xiao Xiao. You’ll understand that resistance is futile.”

With that, the black Demonic Qi enveloped him once again, surging towards Xiao Xiao.

Xiao Xiao felt the Demonic Qi within her raging like a wild beast, rampaging through her meridians with abandon.

The black aura spread rapidly, devouring her Spiritual Power and will.

Her body began to tremble subtly, cold sweat continuously rolling down her forehead.

The wild growth of Demonic Qi caused her to feel stabbing and burning pain, as if countless tiny blades were lacerating her insides.

Her mind was in turmoil, consciousness gradually blurred, and the scene before her eyes grew distorted and unclear.

Every breath became heavy and difficult, as though an invisible weight bore down on her chest.

Xiao Xiao realized the Demonic Qi was eating away at her reason and awareness, and fear and despair filled her heart.

”If... this continues... I’ll... lose control...” Xiao Xiao said to herself, a strong sense of crisis gripping her.

If she didn’t act soon, the Demonic Qi within her would completely suppress her consciousness, turning her into a puppet controlled by darkness.

Xiao Xiao’s gaze grew hazy, she struggled to stay conscious, but the erosion of Demonic Qi made her thoughts chaotic.

She felt her legs start to tremble weakly, her vision blurring, and she had to grit her teeth, using her last bit of willpower to support her body.

”Damn you, Snow Wei...” Xiao Xiao cursed angrily in her heart, knowing she was in an incredibly perilous situation.

The fury of Demonic Qi caused her excruciating pain, as if every cell was being swallowed by darkness.

Her breath became rapid, chest weighed down as if by a giant stone, almost unable to breathe.

”If... I don’t agree soon...”

Xiao Xiao thought hard in her heart, realizing that if she didn’t act, the Demonic Qi within her would become uncontrollable.

She had to make a difficult decision, or she’d never be able to rid herself of this dark force.

”Snow Wei, you win...”

Xiao Xiao said silently in her heart, her voice carrying helplessness and despair. She took a deep breath, trying to keep her voice steady, but couldn’t hide the trembling and weakness.

”Fine, I agree to your terms...” Xiao Xiao’s voice was low and hoarse, her gaze flickering with reluctance and anger, but mostly helplessness and despair.

She knew she had no other choice, temporarily yielding to Snow Wei’s threat to save her own chance of survival.

Snow Wei’s Phantom noticed Xiao Xiao’s expression, a gleam of smugness dancing in his eyes. ”Exactly, Xiao Xiao. You made the wise choice.”

His voice was full of mockery and ridicule.

Xiao Xiao gritted her teeth, her fists clenched, feeling the Demonic Qi within her seem to settle a bit, but the dark power still lingered in her meridians, preventing true relaxation.

This was just a temporary compromise; Snow Wei would pay the price.

”What do you want me to do?” Xiao Xiao asked coldly.

Constantly planning her next move in her mind.

Snow Wei’s Phantom wore a cold smile, reaching into his sleeve to draw out a letter.

The letter was sealed with black Spiritual Power, through which complicated Demonic Patterns could be vaguely seen.

The letter seemed to emit an eerie aura, chilling anyone who glanced at it.

The envelope was made of a special dark red material, embedded with black Crystal Stones, reflecting a faint, ghostly glow like will-o’-the-wisps in the abyss.

The surface of the envelope was slick and hard, feeling cold to the touch.

Snow Wei handed over the letter to Xiao Xiao, sneering, ”This is a letter I’ve written to Jiang Qi, the contents are very important, you must deliver it to him ASAP. Remember, don’t let anyone else know, or you won’t find anyone to help you control the Demonic Qi within.”

Xiao Xiao stared at the letter, filled with inner turmoil and reluctance, but knowing there was no other choice at this moment.

She took a deep breath, suppressing the anger and unease in her heart, and nodded, her voice low yet determined, ”Fine, I’ll give the letter to Jiang Qi.”

Snow Wei’s Phantom nodded with satisfaction, a spark of smugness in his eyes.

”Excellent, Xiao Xiao, this is your wisest choice.”

After speaking these words, the Phantom gradually faded.

Though Snow Wei’s Phantom was dissipating, his cold voice still echoed in Xiao Xiao’s ears.

As if to leave an indelible shadow in her heart.

”Remember, Xiao Xiao,” Snow Wei’s voice carried ice and threat, ”don’t try any tricks. Otherwise, I’ll find you again.”

His tone grew lower and more terrifying, ”At that time, whether your Demonic Qi can be controlled, I wouldn’t know.”

The Phantom’s figure completely vanished, but that merciless voice seemed etched deeply in Xiao Xiao’s heart.

She felt a chill rush from the soles of her feet to her head, making her spine shiver.

Snow Wei’s threat filled her with intense fear, understanding he absolutely had the ability to fulfill his words.

Xiao Xiao looked at the empty courtyard, clenched her fist, nails digging deep into her palm.

Damned Snow Wei!

In order to keep the Demonic Qi inside from losing control, she could only temporarily yield to Snow Wei’s threat.

Xiao Xiao stood at the corner of the courtyard, her hands powerless by her sides, face pale, full of anguish.

She tightly watched the letter in her hand, the seemingly ordinary letter weighing heavily with threats, pressing on her heart, suffocating her.

She knew that if she followed Snow Wei’s request to deliver the letter to Jiang Qi, it might lead to even greater problems.

Jiang Qi is the Saint Heir of the Jiang Ancient Clan, his every action is critical, and if they unite, it would surely be to deal with the young master and Xue Zhao.

Yet, Xiao Xiao deeply understood that Snow Wei’s threats were not idle; if she didn’t deliver the letter, the Demonic Qi within her would spiral out of control, causing unimaginable consequences.

Xiao Xiao’s mind was filled with Snow Wei’s cold smile and his gloomy threats. Her breathing became rapid, fingers trembled slightly, her eyes full of helplessness and fear.

She gritted her teeth, a layer of fine sweat appearing on her forehead.

”What should I do?” she mumbled to herself, voice barely audible.

She struggled to decide whether to obey Snow Wei’s commands or seek another path.

Her eyes darted between the letter and the courtyard walls, her mind an utter chaos.

If she handed the letter to Jiang Qi, it might cause more trouble, even exposing the secret of the Demonic Qi within her, plunging her into greater crisis.

But if she didn’t follow Snow Wei’s orders, his threats would become reality, her Demonic Qi would lose control, leading to an unbearable disaster.
