Reborn : Space Intelligent Woman

Chapter 2850: Chapter 2850: Ask Shino To Contact Yu Qi

Frowning in frustration, the leader decided to ring the bell one final time.

Only then did they finally hear the faint sound of heavy locks unlatching from the inside.

The front door slowly swung open, revealing a dark-faced man who eyed the group with deep suspicion.

“Who are you, and what do you want?” The dark-faced man demanded in a low, gravelly voice.

“Sir, we have brought you some prime goods to sell. Two young girls, probably virgins.” The leader grinned broadly, sounding just like a smooth salesman hawking a high-end luxury product.

Which, in his twisted line of work, was precisely what he was doing. He was fully intent on turning a massive profit off the two young women.

The dark-faced man shifted his gaze toward the two girls standing before him. The very instant his eyes landed on them, his dark expression noticeably brightened. A slow smile curved his lips upward, making it abundantly clear that he was exceptionally pleased with the “merchandise” delivered to his doorstep.

“Great! We are willing to let them go for twenty thousand per person.” The leader bargained greedily, striking while the iron was hot.

“Come inside.” The dark-faced man gestured with his hand, swinging the door wide open to invite them into the house.

Noticing that the two girls hesitated at the threshold, the traffickers roughly shoved Dian Chi Ne and Dian Wan Ye forward from behind.

“Move it! Walk inside!” One of the men ordered harshly.

With no other choice, Dian Chi Ne and Dian Wan Ye stepped across the threshold into the main foyer. However, the second their feet crossed the doorway, an unsettling sensation washed over their entire bodies.

A sudden wave of intense weakness swept through them, as if every ounce of physical and spiritual strength was being violently drained away in an instant. They quickly exchanged panicked looks, their eyes wide with genuine alarm.

Both of them realised right away that something was terribly wrong. They had inadvertently stepped directly into a specialised suppression array designed to drain a person’s physical strength and suppress their spiritual energy.

Dian Chi Ne tightly clenched her fists, desperately fighting the unnatural heaviness to maintain her balance.

Beside her, Dian Wan Ye also put on a convincing display of feeling frightened and weak, while secretly sharpening her focus to inspect every corner of their surroundings.

Meanwhile, the dark-faced man seemed to pick up on their subtle reactions. His eyes narrowed into sharp slits as he stared intently at the two young women.

Suddenly, a strange, eerie glint flickered deep within his pupils. He locked his gaze on them as though he had just uncovered an unexpectedly rare and priceless treasure. A sinister, intrigued smile slowly spread across his face.

“How very interesting…” The dark-faced man murmured under his breath, his eyes gleaming with mounting fascination.

Standing nearby, the leader of the traffickers completely failed to grasp the deeper meaning behind the buyer’s sudden change in demeanour. He naively assumed that the man was simply thoroughly impressed with the sheer quality of the girls he had brought.

Dian Chi Ne and Dian Wan Ye, on the other hand, immediately grew far more cautious.

There was definitely something deeply unnatural about this dark-faced man.

And judging by the sharp, calculating way he was scrutinising them, it was dangerously clear that he had already seen right through their act and detected something unusual about their true identities.

Dian Chi Ne gently tapped Shino, who was still safely hiding inside her pocket.

The little ferret immediately poked his small head out and looked up at Dian Chi Ne with wide, intelligent eyes.

“Tell Sister Yu Qi that we might be stepping into real danger. There is a man here who seems to… well, he probably already realised that we are cultivators.” Dian Chi Ne whispered under her breath, keeping her voice as quiet as possible.

Shino nodded his small head in understanding.

Without losing a second, he relayed the urgent message straight to Yu Qi through their mental link.

Receiving the message from Shino, Yu Qi’s brows furrowed slightly.

“It is from Shino. He says someone there likely figured out that the girls are cultivators.” Yu Qi reported, her voice laced with concern.

“That person is almost certainly an evil cultivator. How far away are we from their location?” Long Hui asked, his expression instantly darkening.

“Probably an hour away if we go by car. But that would not work. An hour is far too long. Let’s ride Aoi instead.” Yu Qi suggested decisively.

“Mhm, let’s do that.” Long Hui agreed without a second thought.

Moving quickly, the two of them hurried into a secluded, shadowed alley where no passersby were around before Yu Qi summoned Aoi.

The moment Aoi materialised, Yu Qi briefly explained the urgency of the situation to her.

Aoi did not waste a single moment asking questions. She immediately activated her invisibility mode and expanded her frame, growing large enough for both Yu Qi and Long Hui to comfortably ride on her back.

“Hop on! Let’s go!” Aoi said.

Yu Qi and Long Hui leapt onto Aoi’s back in one fluid motion.

As soon as they settled securely on her back, Aoi took off like a shot.

Locking onto the faint trace of Shino’s scent floating through the air, Aoi sprinted forward at full speed.

Her pace was blisteringly fast, cutting through the terrain like a streak of lightning.

What would have normally taken a full hour by car was dramatically compressed into a mere fifteen-minute ride. That was the sheer, terrifying speed Aoi was capable of.

Meanwhile, back inside the secluded house where Dian Chi Ne and Dian Wan Ye were being held, the traffickers and the dark-faced man were still finalising their transaction.
