Chapter 436 Saint 16
After getting on Brighton's carriage, Lingruo felt a piercing gaze staring at her from behind.
Tsk, it seems that Soth has always been with her.
In her hand she still held the rose that Brighton had just given her.
Lingruo pulled the rose petals, opened the curtain, and tilted her head to look out the car window.
She couldn't see, but she could sense Soth's exact location.
I wonder if it was because she absorbed some of the black mist that touched her when he was angry last night, so she was able to accurately sense his location?
His breathing seemed to become disordered, like a precursor to a coming storm, making it difficult for Ling Ruo in the carriage to breathe.
Brighton was a little surprised. He looked in the direction Lingruo was looking. The sky was covered with dark clouds and the air was slightly damp.
It turned out that it was about to rain, and he explained why his heart was in such panic and cold sweat appeared on his forehead.
"It's going to rain, Saint." Brighton slowly pulled his sleeves, revealing his honey-colored skin.
The carriage stopped and Lingruo walked down, avoiding Brighton's hand that wanted to help her.
When they went inside, heavy rain poured down in long lines. The ancient castle halfway up the mountain seemed to be swallowed up by the heavy rain mixed with white mist, and could not make any sound.
"Would you like a cup of hot cocoa?" Brayton asked.
Stepping on the soft red carpet, my scattered thoughts were also covered up.
Lingruo wondered when Soth would show up.
"no need."
"This ancient castle stands halfway up the mountain. It takes four or five hours to get to the nearest town by carriage."
Brighton turned the ring on his hand, "Those guards will not come up from the bottom of the mountain without my order."
His words were threatening her, asking her to be careful since there were only two of them here.
Lingruo nodded. That was great. No one would come to rescue Brighton. She was still thinking about how to deal with those guards quietly.
Brighton, on the other hand, simply told them not to come up. Was he sure that she would lose to him?
"Saint, I will take you to see roses that are more beautiful than those of the Carter family."
With such heavy rain, the roses in the garden had long been destroyed by the strong wind. This kind of weather was not suitable for flower viewing, not to mention that she could not see the color of the roses and could only see their outlines through the power of ice and snow.
"Okay." Lingruo followed his footsteps and came to the door of the basement.
"This flower is planted underground. I guess this is the first time the Saint has seen it, right?"
Ling Ruo smiled, it turned out that Brighton was planning to use this method to deal with her?
The purple fluorescent five-star magic circle lay quietly in the center of the dim basement. Brighton had already walked down there, looking up at Lingruo who was still at the door.
He was counting down, and if she didn't come down within a minute, he would use violence.
As he thought of this, Brighton suddenly felt a pain in the back of his head. A feeling of suffocation surged up like a tide, and he fell straight down, wrapped in black mist, without any sound of falling.
It was so quiet that the only sound I could hear was the woman's breathing at the door.
In order to lure Lingruo down, freshly picked roses were placed in the four corners of the basement, with especially many placed in the magic circle in the middle. The bursts of floral fragrance and the dark purple five-stars were intertwined, creating a unique beauty.
She walked down the stairs step by step, as if she was unaware of any danger.
Soth followed behind her, watching the scene coldly, waiting for her to step into the five-star magic circle.
But he didn't notice the white ball of light condensed in Lingruo's palm, and the blue-purple stars that flashed.
Thanks to the books she read in the Holy Court Library, Ling Ruo discovered at the first moment that this was a master-servant contract formation, and also knew how to break it.
Just move a joint or touch a position and you can turn the tables.
Let the contractor become the contractor.
It's a pity that this was ruined by someone.
There was a faint smell of blood in the air, and her eyes were covered by a pair of cold hands. Ling Ruo asked tentatively: "Yuan?"
"Hmph." There was only a faint cold snort.
She tried to remove his cool palm, but to no avail.
The next second, he fell into Soth's arms.
But this time, he didn't let her go out of fear as she expected.
He led her out of the basement and closed the heavy iron door.
"You are very brave." Soth sneered.
"I just came to the castle with Brighton to enjoy the flowers."
"Flowers?" Soth held her hand tightly and led her forcefully to the terrace on the second floor. Facing the second floor were roses that were lushly blossomed by the rain.
The wind blew in with cold rain, and occasionally a few drops sprinkled on Lingruo's face.
The red rose in the center spontaneously combusted and quickly spread to every corner of the garden. The overwhelming fire eroded the roses in the castle.
The raging fire burned the rose, but the rain could not put it out.
"Does it look good?" Soth turned Lingruo around viciously, forcing her to face the burning red rose.
"Did my tricks provoke you?" Ling Ruo just felt a little confused.
"Humph."
Soth turned his head away without saying anything. He covered her eyes again and whispered in her ear with his cold lips, "Go to sleep."
The rolling black fog enveloped Lingruo and she lost consciousness.
When I woke up, I found myself in a strange room in the castle.
"deep?"
No one responded.
There was exquisite food on the table. Lingruo picked up a piece of cake and took a bite.
A hint of sweetness stained the tip of her tongue. She finished the cake and drank a cup of hot cocoa.
After eating, she got up and tried to open the door to the room, but found it was locked.
Ling Ruo:...
"Yuan." She called again, "I know you are here."
The dark shadow in the room moved, ignoring her words.
"You're really not here?"
It was quiet, as if there was only one person in the room.
I just hid it because she couldn't see it.
She groped her way to the closet again, and when she opened it she found many clean women's clothes neatly arranged inside. They were probably the dresses prepared by Brighton for his mistresses to wear.
Lingruo searched for a set of neat and short clothes, and then untied her robe.
Another breath in the room seemed to stop for a moment, and became a little flustered.
Soth quickly turned his back, his ears feeling a little hot.
He didn't turn around until the sound of changing clothes stopped, only to find Ling Ruo already standing on the window, ready to jump down.
Soth: !!!
He quickly rushed forward and hugged her waist with both hands.
"Want to die?" The voice was as cold as ice.
"No." She was not stupid enough to seek death. She was just measuring the distance from the third floor to the first floor, and then using this method to force him out.
“You’re always here.”
Soth hummed calmly.
"Then didn't you see me changing my clothes just now?" she said with a smile.
