Chapter 721: Chapter 721: Reason_1

"Yan Ling was quite upset inside.

She tried hard to convince herself that Qi Yunjue had nothing to do with those secrets.

But now, not only did he know about the secret of the Negative third floor.

He had also joined Linxi and others in their cruel antics.

If they really got their way!

Wouldn’t Qi Yunjue become an accomplice?

When he regained his memory, could he accept everything that he’d done?

Scorpion, fearing that Yan Ling would act emotionally, gave her a look immediately.

The man in front of her was not Qi Yunjue now, he was King!

So, he could possibly do anything.

She couldn’t afford to fall apart at this moment.

Yan Ling understood that Scorpion had good intentions. However...

Looking at the man in front of her, she felt somewhat at a loss.

Could it be that after he was thoroughly hypnotized, he was no longer Qi Yunjue?

Could he really just watch those innocent children being tortured to death in experiments without any feelings?

"Wesley..."

Noticing Yan Ling’s emotional state, the man raised his hand to hold hers.

But just as his hand was about to touch hers, she instinctively evaded it.

Her expression was very unnatural, even though she tried to cover it up with a smile, it still made him sense something was wrong.

The man’s eyes suddenly darkened. He didn’t understand.

Why did the person who just confessed to him resist him so resolutely the next moment?

Was her confession not sincere at all?

Just a few words, a few glances and moves, and they already had a growing rift between them.

And in order to uphold this fragile relationship, neither of them had the courage to voice their doubts directly.

"Give me your hand." Suppressing his turmoil, the man broke the silence.

By this time Yan Ling had realized her reaction was somewhat excessive. Without any hesitation, she extended her hand towards him.

Seeing her so obedient, the man’s expression finally eased a bit.

He took off his Jade Thumb Ring and placed it in Yan Ling’s hand.

"This is..."

Yan Ling was a little hesitant, why did he give her such an important item?

The man solemnly said, "Didn’t you want to go to the laboratory? With this, you can go anywhere in the Dark Empire."

Yan Ling had intended to return the ring, but hearing him say this, she immediately gripped the ring in her hand.

"Aren’t you coming with me?"

She asked without putting her heart into it.

If he was with her, she would definitely not be able to move freely in the laboratory.

"No, I’m tired. I want to go back to my room and rest." The man spoke in a calm tone.

Yan Ling breathed a sigh of relief, it seemed that she didn’t need to make up an excuse.

"Well then, Ricca, you take care of King! I’ll be right back!"

After finishing, Yan Ling left with her medicine box.

"King, shall I take you back to your room?"

Scorpion was a bit worried about Yan Ling, but she had to stay.

Just as Scorpion was on edge, she heard the man speak.

"There’s no need, you follow Wesley. Ensure her safety!"

Scorpion was stunned at his words.

"What are you still doing? Go!" The man’s tone was a bit annoyed.

But Scorpion hesitated: "But you can’t be left alone."

King gazed at Scorpion with a chilly look.

"The lab is dangerous. If you don’t want her to get in trouble and no one to report, stay with me."

Considering Yan Ling being alone was indeed dangerous, Scorpion immediately left the boss behind and went to chase after Yan Ling.
