At this moment, Mei Suyao turned around, a devastatingly beautiful smile on her face. "Brother Li," she said, "how about we study this rune together? It would be of great benefit to us both."
"Is that so—" Li Qiye smiled, but before he could finish his sentence, a brilliant light suddenly erupted from between Mei Suyao's brows. The moment the Immortal Light touched Li Qiye, he froze stiff.
In that instant, Li Qiye seemed to be petrified. He was fixed in place, unable to move a single inch.
Mei Suyao smiled. Her otherworldly, transcendent, and peerless beauty was enough to make anyone's heart race. "Brother Li," she said with a smile, "I have no wish to harm you, but I must take this rune. I can only inconvenience you for now. You'll recover on your own after a short while."
