24 What an Evildoer (1/2)
Even though she still could not take in spiritual influence—when the spiritual influence in the space flowed throughout her body, she could still feel her senses connect and all her tiredness go away.
He Xi was using her internal energy to dry the clothes beside the fountain when, suddenly, the reflection in the water shook. The water, originally reflecting her image, then showed a blurred figure of a person.
The person was currently silently hiding behind the beams of the Dong Xiang Room she was living in. As the surroundings were very dark, she could not see his facial features and could only confirm that he was a tall and huge man.
At the same time, every corner in the space was blinking with red lights which represented danger.
Someone was within a hundred-meter radius from her and was currently in her room!
This was the self-warning system in the space; as long as someone went close to her sleeping body, the space would have warnings. The fountain would reflect the image outside to prevent the sleeping outer body from coming into any harm.
He Xi focused her gaze as her consciousness rapidly left the space and returned to her body. Once He Xi came out of the space, her entire body was startled; the strong sense of danger almost caused her to leap up in fear.
In the silent darkness, she could not see anything in front of her; and her senses could not tell that someone else was in the house.
However, at this very moment, a pair of hands had swiftly caressed her tightly shut eyes and landed on her shirt's collar.
Yes, someone was standing beside her. The person's agile, five fingers were quietly undoing her shirt without hesitation.
He Xi hurriedly widened her eyes, and her cold gaze was filled with murderous intent. Her right leg was raised at the speed of lightning as she kicked the gutsy 'flower-picking thief' with all her might.
However, the expected sound of the thief's collar bone cracking from the kick did not occur. Instead, her right ankle was held by a metal-like, big hand.
