Ye Xiao, or Ella, well, it doesn't really matter, was still trying to soothe the girl in front of her whose eyes were becoming increasingly terrifying.

"Damn witch!!! Give him back to me!!!"

A heart-wrenching scream erupted, accompanied by an extremely powerful surge of magical energy.

In the blink of an eye, all the windows on the first floor shattered, and the Duke's mansion shook as if in a slight earthquake.

All the residents of Lionheart City looked up in bewilderment at that moment, feeling an inexplicable sense of fear and oppression surge into their hearts.

Holy crap, is this guy insane?!

Even Ella couldn't hold back anymore. This was a demon god; if he unleashed his full power in a place like this, he might turn the entire city to ashes.

Although this city is said to harbor many deities, it's unlikely that they would be exposed, but the Tyron family's ducal mansion will definitely be gone. This is not necessarily a good thing for the current situation, and it will also affect many innocent citizens.

Seeing the urgency of the situation, Ella looked at Beryl, whose eyes were red, and her throat trembled.

How can we make this madman stop?

Countless ideas flashed through her mind, but Beryl didn't seem like someone who could communicate at all.

Ella even started to miss Samael a little; at least that guy knew to pick a deserted place when he went crazy.

"Get out!! Get out of his body!!!"

Beryl dug his nails into his palm until they bled, and let out a hysterical roar.

But this restless behavior suddenly reminded Ella, and as if she suddenly realized something, she manipulated Ye Xiao's five fingers to grab her own throat.

"Stop it."

Ye Xiao curled the corners of her lips and swallowed hard. "Otherwise... you can just watch your lover die."

Chapter 136 The Witch's Fool

To be honest, Ella never expected that she would one day do something so abstract.

Using blackmail to threaten others is a good thing Li Cheng wasn't there, otherwise it might have become a joke that guy would use to tease himself for the rest of his life.

Even Ella's impromptu choking gesture was meaningless. She had originally intended to grab a dagger, but then she thought that since both sides were gods, it would be too fake to put a knife to her throat.

A hand choking someone would actually feel more realistic, but of course, it would be harder to maintain composure if you knew the truth.

But this bizarre performance in desperation actually worked.

Beller's pupils trembled, her jaw clenched, and the veins on her forehead showed that her anger had clearly intensified, but the magic power emanating from her body had somewhat subsided.

Even if she lost her mind and went mad, she wouldn't dare gamble the slightest risk on Ye Xiao's safety.

"Let's change the venue."

Ella opened a portal next to Ye Xiao, saying, "If you want him to live, come here."

After saying that, without waiting for Bellier's reaction, she controlled Ye Xiao's body and hurriedly ran into the spatial portal.

Damn, I'd better hide first. Heaven knows how many eyes were drawn to that place after that commotion.

With a gloomy face and clenched fists, Beryl walked into the portal without saying a word.

The spatial rift immediately closed, and the powerful pressure that had been spreading throughout the Zhou Dynasty finally dissipated at that moment.

A few seconds later, the guards of the Tyran family, who had recovered from the oppressive power of the terrifying divine might, cautiously walked down the corridor to see what had happened.

The banquet outside was thrown into chaos as well. The nobles were all taken aback by the sudden turn of events until the Duke stepped in and temporarily calmed everyone down with a flimsy excuse.

"What exactly was that thing?"

Duke Tyran was also puzzled as to what had happened in his mansion, but the guards' report left him completely baffled.

Leaving aside the temporary commotion at the banquet, let's return to Ye Xiao and Miss Beller. At this moment, they are in the Northern Gorge in the northeastern part of the continent, thousands of miles away.

In a vast snowfield, Ella controlled Ye Xiao and stood facing each other.

She didn't dare bring Belier to the Holy City or Loren. With his mental state, he would be a disaster anywhere. She was still in her juvenile form and couldn't suppress him. After thinking it over, the Northern Territory was the most suitable place.

"Even in a different place, you only dare to hide in the back, you disgusting witch."

Beryl's voice was low and his face was gloomy, almost like a different person from when he met Ye Xiao.

She now resembled a hellish spirit radiating malice and resentment. If Ella hadn't seen this girl's playful and carefree demeanor before, it would be hard to imagine that she was usually such a lively young woman.

"I don't want to fight you, so of course I won't come out."

Ella, controlling Ye Xiao, shrugged and said helplessly, "To be honest, if you hadn't used that strange ability to restrict Ye Xiao, I wouldn't be in this situation..."

"You are not worthy to address him by his name!!!"

Beryl's voice was shrill, like a lich's howl. In some ways, Ella found that this guy actually had a lot in common with her sister.

"Okay, I won't say anything more, but calm down first..."

Ella asked Ye Xiao to raise his palm.

"Get out of his body!!!"

Beryl charged forward.

Ella quickly forced Ye Xiao to withdraw his hand and grabbed her own neck, which made him stop again.

I'm impressed, there's no time to relax.

Ella was speechless. "If you just speak properly, I won't hurt him."

Beryl stared intently at Ye Xiao, his gaze seemingly trying to penetrate Ye Xiao's body and reach Ella behind the curtain.

"Okay, it's finally quiet."

Ella paused.

The situation is under control, but what should we do next?

Tell the truth? Are Ye Xiao and I actually the same person?

Just think about it and you'll know this guy will go crazy if he hears that, because Ella has absolutely no way to prove that she is Ye Xiao, even if you cut out her soul, it won't help.

The only thing Ella can prove is that Ye Xiao is her clone. She can disband it, rest for ten days or half a month, and then summon another one. But this truth will probably only cause Beryl to turn into a rebellious ghost.

"You ate him!!!"

Ella could almost hear the howl emanating from the depths of the other's soul.

She was truly at a loss with the two sisters. Given their shared experiences and the depth of their feelings, she wasn't heartless enough to completely ruthlessly kill them as enemies.

But when I tried to persuade them, they were completely obsessed and wouldn't listen to a word I said.

Of course, this is also the fault of that original world-destroying witch, who actually used despicable means such as deception and sneak attacks, leaving no way out at all. This is just too outrageous.

Now things are much better. The previous generation planted the trees so that the next generation could enjoy the shade. The witch from the previous cycle completely ruined the credibility of the name "Ella". Now, whatever Ella says, the other party will only take it as her conspiracy.

This is really giving me a headache...

After thinking for a long time, Ella slowly spoke.

"Well……"

“So, Miss Beller… let’s make a deal.”

"If you can help me resolve the issues with the Dark Seekers and the company, I will return Ye Xiao to you."

"Ah."

However, Ella's proposal was met with a cold laugh from Beller.

"So you've finally revealed your true colors, you despicable witch."

"Ye Xiao says how much you love him, but in reality you still only see him as a pawn in your vicious scheme."

"How could someone as despicable as you possibly have a heart that loves others?"

A few black lines appeared on Ella's forehead. "Okay, okay, you're right. So, do you agree to my deal?"

"Keep dreaming, you bitch."

"I'd rather trust a stray dog ​​on the street than you," Beryl said coldly.

"What do you want?"

Ella just felt a headache.

"I want you to die."

"This can't be done."

Ella, controlling Ye Xiao's body, put one hand on her hip and said, "Can you give me some rational advice? In the worst-case scenario, I'll just take Ye Xiao back to Loren, and you won't get anything."

Ella tried her best not to sound like a villain, but rather like an objective and rational negotiator.

But to Beller, it meant, "Ye Xiao is in my hands, and you have no choice."

She even pictured a petite, silver-haired girl with alluring red eyes, covering her mouth with her hand and giving her a defiant upturn, saying, "Useless, you can't even protect your own man, what a waste."

"Ella Hevy...!!!"

Beryl gritted his teeth, biting his lip until it bled, "How dare you!!!"

"No? Did I say something wrong?"

Ella was completely bewildered. Seeing that Bellier was about to rush over again, she quickly restrained Ye Xiao and tightened his grip on her neck. "What are you doing?!"

Beryl crouched low, like a cat with puffed-up fur watching its prey, ready to pounce at any moment.

"Since you can't communicate with me, I'll take Ye Xiao with me."

Ella had no choice but to issue an ultimatum: "You will never see him again. I will not let him leave Loren."

"You dare!!! I'd rather he die than let him fall back into your hands!!!"

“I can let him stay, but you have to give me a condition.”

Ella continued, "My targets are the company and the Dark Shepherds. I know this target is too big, but I can take a step back—you will cover for Ye Xiao as my undercover agent to stay in the company and tell me the relevant information. What exactly is the Upgrade Plan?"

"What exactly does the company want to do in Aslan?"

Chapter 137 The Compromise of Laziness

After much back and forth, Beryl finally gave in to Ella, albeit very reluctantly.

"Ye Xiao" is really useful. Even Ella had to admit that it was probably the only way to stabilize this mentally ill lady.

Although this completely cemented Ella's image as an "evil witch" in front of the two sisters, what else could she do?

"...I will give you the information you need, but you are not allowed to interfere with his body again."

Beller's face darkened. "And, don't let him know about our meeting."

After saying that, she emphasized again, "He absolutely mustn't know, especially not in my current state!!"

This guy, even at a time like this, is still thinking about hiding his illness from "Ye Xiao".

Ella didn't know how to complain either.

It's not a matter of knowing or not knowing; you simply can't forget it even if you want to.

“No problem, as long as you stop using that weird divine authority to forcibly take people away. Even as my… pawn, he still has value to me now.”

"Ha, I don't expect you to honestly return it to me."

Beryl scoffed, "I'll find a way to get him out of your clutches sooner or later."

Ella controlled Ye Xiao to shrug, indicating that whatever makes you happy.

"Now that you've finished speaking, quickly open the portal and get out of his body."

Beller's beautiful brows furrowed.

Without revealing that distorted, crazed expression, the girl's face was still quite delicate and cute. However, anyone who had seen that terrifying expression once would find it hard to forget.

"What's the rush? What about the intelligence we were promised?"

"I'll tell Ye Xiao, since you'll have him pass it on to you anyway."

Beryl waved his hand as if shooing away flies. "Get out of here. I feel disgusted even talking to you. You're manipulating people with every word you say. You're a born scoundrel."

No, is it really necessary to curse like that, sister?
