Lin Qiao stood on a tree with her eyes closed, trying her best to suppress Tang He who was in her space. She focused the energy of her space on him to quickly suppress all his power.
She spent an hour to finally lower Tang He's power to level-five. Only after that did she flash into her space and show up before Tang He's face.
"It's you!" As Lin Qiao suddenly appeared, Tang He was shocked, and then instantly stepped back to create a safe distance.
"Yes, it's me," Lin Qiao nodded and said.
Tang He tightened his entire body as he stared at her and asked, "You dragged me into this place. What do you want?"
Lin Qiao looked at him and said, " I failed to kill you last time in Sea City Base. However, you brought yourself to my territory. Do you think that I'll let you leave my space alive?"
Tang He paused for a second upon hearing what she said, and then suddenly popped his eyes and said, "Are you saying that this is your space?"
Lin Qiao nodded and said, "Yes."
Lin Qiao wanted to kill Tang He not only because he was a robber, but also because he was clearly going after Yuan Tianxing and Lin Feng when she saw him for the first time. Not to mention the fact that he went to Sea City Base later on and ganged up with Yang Chao to hurt Lin Wenwen.
Now, he showed up around her new base. How could she possibly let this man with evil intentions go?
Her words made Tang He feel extremely uncomfortable. No wonder his power was lowered to level-five, and was reducing unstoppably.
He hurriedly tried to negotiate with her, "I didn't do anything to you or your people, neither did I kill any of your people. You have no reason to kill me! Let me go, and I'll leave this area. I'll be far from here, and I'll never approach your territory again. How about that?"
Lin Qiao looked at him and sneered, "You think I'll believe you, such an ambitious post-apocalyptic robber? You've eaten lots of human flesh. The people that you've hurt are even more than the zombies that you have killed. You are heartless. Why should you stay alive?"
Most importantly, this terrorist now had his eyes on her new base. If she let him go, he would definitely ally with other powerful people to attack her. Lin Qiao was not an idiot. She would never set free this evil man.
As the negotiation failed, the look on Tang He's face immediately turned cold. As a level-seven powerful man and a post-apocalyptic robber, he was brave enough to pick a life-risking fight. So, when Lin Qiao refused to let him go, he gave up on the negotiation.
He spread his hands as he stared at Lin Qiao fiercely and said with a deep and cold voice, "In this case, let me see how you'll take my life."
After that, his pair of forearms turned into metal and lengthened, his palms transforming into sharp blade tips.
As he swung his arms, the sharp blades created a shrill noise in the air. "Come on, bring it on! Let me see what you can do!"
Lin Qiao only looked at him blandly, without making a move. Of course, she would not fight with him closely. Instead, she reached out a hand and released a stream of dark mist from her palm.
"I have plenty of ways to kill you," she said.
Last time, she accidentally let him escape, so she brought him into her space this time. As long as he was trapped in her space, he would have no way of survival.
The thick dark mist that she released was clearly not easy to deal with. Tang He didn't have the sharp sensations that zombies had, but he could see it with his eyes.
The dark mist around Lin Qiao grew larger and larger. It surrounded her, then spiraled up into the sky and expanded slowly, eventually forming a dark cloud.
As the dark cloud became huger and huger, Tang He's face turned darker and darker, and his heart sank deeper and deeper. He suddenly realized that he might not be able to survive today. He was careless enough to let himself be dragged into this space. That was already a mistake. This space suppressed his power, but strengthened hers.
In fact, he had seen this coming as his power disappeared partially during the past hour.
He looked at Lin Qiao before he abruptly held his breath and lunged at her. From about four meters away, he suddenly leaped up, flipped in the air, and then swung both arms down toward Lin Qiao.
He wanted to know what the black mist could do to him! He thought that it wouldn't be too effective to him as long as he didn't inhale it.
However, he soon realized that he was wrong.
As he suddenly charged, Lin Qiao quickly took a step backward and waved a hand. Following her move, the dark mist descended from the sky and shrouded Tang He, who was trying to hack Lin Qiao.
He automatically raised his arms to shield his head. In the meantime, his entire body turned into metal, even his hair becoming like steel wires.
When the dark mist touched his skin, he felt that something was devouring the energy on his skin.
'This isn't good!'
With an awful feeling, he immediately rushed out of the mist. However, as Lin Qiao waved her hand again, the dark mist followed Tang He. He never got a chance to get rid of the mist.
Lin Qiao hopped on top of the small building and reached out both hands toward Tang He with her fingers crooked, and then clenched them. It seemed like she was trying to grasp something in the air. She moved her hands along with Tang He; wherever he went, she moved her hands that way.
On the other side, the mist enveloped Tang He. Under Lin Qiao's control, it was slowly shrinking toward him.
At that moment, the mist before Tang He's eyes were turning thicker and thicker, darker and darker. He couldn't see anything but darkness, so he darted about like a headless fly.
And then, he unluckily bumped into the small building which Lin Qiao was standing on.
As his entire body had turned into metal, he wasn't injured, but only dizzied himself.
The dizziness disabled him from controlling his power. As a result, his skin quickly turned back normal, and then was corroded by the dark mist which was surrounding him.
"Ah…" A burning pain made him let out a shrill howl and suddenly woke him up. Next, he controlled his power and quickly recovered his skin with his energy.
However, just now while screaming, he could not help but make a few breaths. What he inhaled was, of course, Lin Qiao's dark mist.
"Em… eh!" Before long, he covered his throat with both hands, his face reddened with suffocation.
On his forehead, blood veins bulged under his skin while he widened his eyes and mouth. His legs could no longer support his body, so he fell to the ground with his waist bent and curled.
He popped his eyes and curled beside the building, his hands scratching his throat.
"Er… ah… emmmm…" He opened his mouth wide like a fish which was exposed in the air as strange noises came out of his throat.
