Chapter 177: Her Answer



Long Yu didn't expect Yao Ran's reason to buy antiques was to upgrade her space.

As far as he knew, space ability could not be upgraded, including spiritual garden-type spaces. But since she said her space could be upgraded with antiques, he will help her find more in the future.

After Yao Ran had sent all the antiques into her space, she closed her eyes and checked her space with her consciousness. Seeing nothing change inside the space, she frowned.

'Is the antiques not enough to upgrade the space?'

She thought for a second and then went to check the lake.

Yao Ran observed the lake water for a while and found that it was a little bit darker in color. She wouldn't have noticed the change if she didn't look closely. Feeling curious, she filled a glass with lake water and took it out.

The lake water was dark blue, but when she scooped it out, it was crystal clear and free of particles. Although the water does not need to be boiled and can be consumed directly, Yao Ran still likes to boil it before drinking it.

Long Yu was no longer surprised when he saw a glass of water suddenly appear in Yao Ran's hand, and he only looked at her curiously.

While he stared at her, Yao Ran stared at the water in the cup for a moment and then took a sip.

Looking at her cautious movements, Long Yu asked, "Ran Ran, what kind of water is this?" "This is water from the lake inside my space. Do you want to have a taste?" Yao Ran asked. Long Yu nodded and drank the lake water without hesitation. The next second, his eyes flickered. He circulated the wind element energy inside his body and felt that his stagnant wind element ability had improved slightly.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

She already has a unique space, and now, the lake water in her space can enhance ability users' abilities. If someone knew about her space, Yao Ran would be in great danger.

Thinking of what happened to her in her previous life, Long Yu's eyes flickered with darkness. He looked at Yao Ran and reminded her, "Ran Ran, never give your lake water to others."

Yao Ran looked into his eyes and said, "I come to give you my answer."

Long Yu was stunned for a moment, then stepped aside and said, "Let's talk inside."

Yao Ran nodded and walked into his apartment.

After Long Yu closed the door, his heart beat faster and faster when he saw Yao Ran standing calmly in the living room.

Long Yu clenched his sweaty palms, took a deep breath, and walked up to her. Whatever her answer was, he would accept it.

He tried to look calm and asked, "Ran Ran, what is your answer?"

When he asked, Yao Ran turned to look at him. She stared at him silently, which made Long Yu's heart beat even faster. When she saw his tightly clenched hands trembling, Yao Ran was stunned.

She raised her eyes to look at his calm face and thought, 'I thought I was the only one nervous. It turns out he is also as nervous as me.'

Long Yu looked at her expressionless face, swallowed nervously, and called her, "Ran Ran?" When he called her, his voice was trembling, and Yao Ran suddenly took a few steps closer to him.

She stood only one step away from him, staring into his deep eyes, and said, "Long Yu, I am not a good person. I came back from hell for revenge. My life... is shrouded in darkness. My future will be full of thorns and blood."

Yao Ran paused and asked softly, "Are you sure you want to walk this road to hell with me?"

After saying that, she looked at Long Yu intently. She didn't want to miss any subtle emotion in his eyes. Once she sees his hesitation, she will reject him.

For a person who always walks in the light, he should stay away from her. She longs for light but cannot drag the light into darkness. It would be better for them to just cooperate and remain in their own worlds.

When Yao Ran was observing his expression, Long Yu also looked at her. The two looked at each other, and time seemed to have stopped.
