Crossing the Other World: Slave Loli will not be covered by the veil
Chapter 191 Listening
Just as the scorpion's tail was sweeping towards him, Ye Xi immediately took out his laser sword.
The sharp light instantly cut off the poisonous stinger at the end of the scorpion's tail, and luckily escaped the disaster.
A large number of ice crystal fragments exploded rapidly and fell to the ground. Lana was frightened by the scene and trembled.
Ye Xi was always on guard against the scorpion's next attack. Having lost its stinger, it could only swing its huge claws.
"How long are you going to sit on the ground and pretend to be dead?"
"Either run or come and help!"
"But......"
Faced with a species much larger than herself, Lana was enveloped by the scorpion's shadow.
But because Ye Xi kept fighting back, Scorpion's attention was diverted.
Watching Ye Xi confronting Scorpion for her, Lana secretly mustered up her courage and held the scepter in her palm.
"Hurry...get away from me!"
As soon as she finished speaking, Lana closed her eyes tightly and pointed the scepter at Scorpion and shouted.
As a faint light emerged at the end of the scepter, it gradually formed into a beam of strong light and emitted out.
A powerful push on the back hit the scorpion's forehead. Although it did not destroy it directly, the powerful immortal power overturned it on the spot.
Taking this opportunity, Ye Xi leaped into the air and spun his laser sword, creating a clean crack from the scorpion's tail to its head.
In an instant, the scorpion split into two halves and lay on the ground without a sound.
Afterwards, Ye Xi took a closer look and breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that the scorpion was completely motionless.
"It's over. Don't you have a trick to deal with it?"
"If it weren't for me, sitting there would really be waiting to die, right?"
Ye Xi complained to Lana in a cold tone about her behavior just now, which made her stammer a little, her cheeks slightly red, and she held the scepter tremblingly.
"Feel sorry......"
"Ok?"
Lana's apology made Ye Xi a little dazed. She lowered her head silently, her eyes wandering, as if she had something stuck in her throat.
She looked like a weak little girl, remaining silent as if being criticized.
Ye Xi saw the indescribable expression in her eyes and said no more.
"Let's go, let's get out of here before other monsters arrive."
Ye Xi did not blame Lana too much, because she knew that instead of trying hard to persuade Lana, it would be more important to find a way out first.
Lana nodded and followed, looking much better.
Ye Xi felt a little weird because Lana usually behaved like an older sister in front of Vinales and Brest.
But when she was in front of him, she was timid like a little girl who had not experienced much of the world.
"Come to think of it, since that box was given to you by your grandmother."
"What is its use, or what can it do?"
Because the box is closed, it is surrounded by a layer of hazy mist, which looks very mysterious.
"I don't know because I've never opened it."
"And I have a feeling it's related to grandma's disappearance, so I brought it along to see if I can try my luck."
Ye Xi heard a clue and recalled the fortune teller in the abandoned house. An unexpected guess emerged in his mind.
"About your family...are the rules strict?"
"Well...our family rules aren't very strict, but all members of the clan are eligible to become high priests."
"High Priest?" Ye Xi looked surprised.
"Well, rather than a family rule, this is more like a will. There is someone in the Xi family who can become the one who holds the power of the family."
This is equivalent to the big brother and the little brother, the bishop and the nun, and now the angels and the people, all of which are similar to leadership identities.
Now Lana is the only one left in her family, and theoretically she is the high priestess.
But unfortunately, Ye Xi is an outsider, and his thoughts are often not that simple.
"What do you think after listening to their description?"
"Impressions? You mean everyone's impression of grandma?"
Ye Xi nodded, and Lana was silent for a long time before she spoke.
"Maybe grandma is really great, and I did this to find out the truth."
"If grandma wasn't a priestess, then I probably wouldn't be worthy of this position."
Lana looked a little depressed after she finished speaking, which shows how much she values her family.
But looking at it this way, assuming that Lanamani is simply missing, it does not mean that she is dead.
But when she saw the sacred object of the Demara family, she felt her whole body tense up.
Why would the sacred objects passed down from generation to generation fall into the hands of others?
How she wanted to feel the warmth of her ancestors with her own hands. Even if she had only met them once, she would remember it firmly in her heart.
"Then do you regret it?"
Lana shook her head and said softly, "At least I once regretted it, but now I value this priesthood very much."
Ye Xi didn't know what to say when he heard that. In order not to make the atmosphere so dull, silence was the best comfort.
"Do you want to hear my story?"
When Ye Xi turned around, he found Lana looking at him with a flattering expression.
There was a hint of grievance on his face, and even his tone became particularly delicate.
"But it doesn't matter."
While listening to Lana's stories about the past, the two gradually forgot about their plan to find a exit.
Ye Xi was also very calm and seemed to be interested in Lana's past.
Knowing that everyone has a secret story to tell, if someone has something to share, try to restrain your curiosity and listen carefully.
Maybe this is a hint to seek help.
"I once had a complete team like this."
"As a priest, healing and blessing are necessary."
"Perhaps it's true, as Grandma said, that I will become an outstanding priest in the future. But she also said—don't dedicate yourself unconditionally just because of a momentary pity..."
"Before I became a teammate with Brest, I was treated badly."
Lana's tone became heavier at this moment, and Ye Xi frowned.
Lana is in her prime and graceful figure, and it is hard to imagine that she has ever been defiled in the past.
She was so calm and reserved, as if her divinity was growing.
"So, where are your former teammates?"
"Right now, I sleep here forever, feeling depressed and restless."
When Priestess Lana was in office, her teammates only valued her abilities, not her person.
A coward who only cares about himself and not his teammates when a crisis strikes.
At first, when Lana was in the team, she was respected by everyone around her.
As the indispensable core of the team, Lana is always the most eye-catching one after each mission is completed, and her achievements are much higher than those of other teammates.
But this must be unfair to them for escaping death.
Since Lanamani suddenly disappeared that day, Lana suffered a huge blow.
Lana's loss of consciousness caused the team's power to plummet at that moment.
Many people believe that separations of life and death are commonplace, yet they do not expect that this emotion will lower their reputation.
Lana was expelled from the team because of this, and to this day, she will not abuse her abilities excessively to avoid making redemption a sin.
