Chapter 673: 630 Exposure (2 more Chapters)

Professor Ming stepped forward, quickly inserted several silver needles into the back of White Fox’s head and behind her ears. His movements were so swift that Lu Han was momentarily dazed before immediately returning to his senses, without a clear view of how Professor Ming made his move.

Soon, the pain White Fox felt disappeared, and the blood in her ears slowly stopped.

"You can’t remove them for fifteen minutes," Professor Ming said to White Fox.

"...Yes," White Fox replied softly.

Professor Ming sat down, "Now, if you’re feeling much better, answer Shadow’s questions."

"..."

White Fox hung her head low, not speaking for a long time.

Shadow’s temper flared again, wanting to go up and once more clamp down on White Fox’s neck, making her speak whether she wanted to or not.

Professor Ming gave Shadow a look.

Only then did Shadow back off.

Seeing White Fox unwilling to speak, Professor Ming let out an almost inaudible sigh before he began:

"I originally thought that as a High Priest, you could keep your composure, not to shame the Deity, that dark figure who dares not to show his face even now, for valuing you so much."

"I even believed that after throwing out the bait of Tang Su’s pregnancy, you could hold out until the moment you kidnapped Tang Su to threaten Lu Han. Yet, I never imagined that you couldn’t even withstand the small test of a peace charm."

Shadow: "..."

What does it mean to hold out until the moment of kidnapping Tang Su to threaten Lu Han?

Lu Han was also somewhat stunned, but then, after recalling all those phenomena Professor Ming had analyzed before, he didn’t refute at this moment. His gaze toward White Fox lost its warmth.

The warmth was there before because he saw White Fox as a comrade-in-arms fighting alongside him. Amongst the seven buddies, there was no distinction of gender, only comrades.

When they ate meat and drank wines heartily, they could laugh and slap each other on the back.

So, when Professor Ming hinted to him, both overtly and covertly, that White Fox—no, the High Priest who was hostile to them—had different expectations of him, he was somewhat disbelieving.

At that time, he also didn’t know who the High Priest was.

Now that he thought about it, he really didn’t know what to say.

If it weren’t for Tang Su, to be liked by such a malicious woman would make him prefer to be disfigured than to accept her affections.

Unfortunately, Tang Su also loved his peerless beauty, so for Tang Su’s sake, he couldn’t disfigure himself and had to continue being handsome.

"A peace charm?" White Fox heard every word spoken by Professor Ming. She understood everything up until Professor Ming mentioned the peace charm, at which point her eyelashes trembled.

A peace charm was a hurdle?

What kind of hurdle was that?

How had she given herself away?

She was totally baffled.

"Professor Ming’s peace charm is made of a special material. It not only ensures safety but also prevents eavesdropping. Yesterday, you were audacious enough to eavesdrop on the Professor’s conversation with Lu Han; I warned you then," said Shadow.

"You claimed it was an accident and you were not listening on purpose. So, I didn’t say anything more. The first time can be forgiven, but the second time, did you really think the Professor has such patience?"

Professor Ming: "..."

Why does it feel like Shadow is throwing shade at him?

But now is not the time to talk about that.

"That’s not quite it. All seven of you have powerful abilities, and I have a counter for each one. White Fox, your Thousand-Mile Sound is countered by this peace charm."

"Now, will you tell us on your own, or shall we all make you talk bit by bit like squeezing toothpaste from a tube?"

"..."

White Fox buried her head, still unwilling to speak.

They had said so much, only mentioning that she had a weak spot, and something about Mercurial Sand?

What was that supposed to be?

They weren’t women from ancient times; how could they still be using such an outdated thing?

Calling it a mole would be more like it.

"Professor Ming, Shadow, I really didn’t deceive you, I am just..."

"Since you refuse to see reason, Lu Han, remove the needle."

"Yes."

After Lu Han removed the silver needle, the previous pain swept over her; White Fox clutched her head, screaming continuously.

"Ah, it hurts, it hurts so much, Professor Ming, save me, save me, please."

"I, Mingwei, save people with principles. I don’t save bad people, those without morals, and I don’t save... ingrates."

Professor Ming’s demeanor had changed from his previous amiableness; he looked at the fake White Fox in front of him, his eyes filled with indifference.

"White Fox, you’ve given yourself away not only today in my presence. I gave you chance after chance, it’s just that, before, I didn’t know you were the High Priest. Now that I do, I understand why, no matter how much I did, I couldn’t change you."

"Was White Fox killed by that bastard from Deity?" Shadow reached out again and grabbed White Fox’s throat. Her action was so swift that Mingwei didn’t even have a chance to stop her.

White Fox’s head throbbed painfully, her ears as well; her hands weakly grasped at Shadow’s hand that was choking her, "It has nothing to do with me."

"You still dare to argue?"

"..."

White Fox closed her eyes; now that everything had been exposed, she might as well just seek death—she would never betray Deity.

The most dignified and privileged days of her life from childhood had been given to her by Deity.

Furthermore, as the High Priest of Player’s World, over the years, she had toyed with many people, watching them being manipulated by her will, their fates as simple to determine as crushing ants.

She had had enough of this game, and at this time, even if she died, it would be worth it.

So, as the oxygen in her throat diminished, White Fox’s smile grew more radiant.

"Don’t kill her, Shadow. Previously, they used Poisonous Insects to harm so many innocents, among whom were my friends. Thus, I need to take her as a sign of commitment, to thoroughly research her."

"Keeping her locked in the lab as a specimen would be quite fitting."

When Lu Han’s heart hardened, there was nothing he wouldn’t do.

White Fox was an orphan. This White Fox before him was a mystery, but if she truly was the High Priest, then she belonged to Deity.

Based on their understanding of Deity, even if she went missing and Deity couldn’t find her, Deity would definitely not report her missing to the police.

"You want to take me as a specimen?" White Fox stared at Lu Han in disbelief.

"Why not?"

"Heh, hehe, hahaha, Lu Han, do you know how I’ve treated you over the years? And do you realize how much I’ve endured for you?"

Deity had wanted to deal with him from the start, but she wouldn’t allow it. For Lu Han, she had constantly opposed Deity.

Every time she disobeyed Deity for Lu Han’s sake, Deity would punish her.

And now that she had been exposed, Lu Han still wanted to make her a specimen.

Had she known, she would have killed Tang Su the moment she became aware of his existence.

Actually, she had attempted to use Ouyang Jingjing to kill Tang Su; it just hadn’t been successful.
