Chapter 86 – Drugged Play (1/2)

Winterless City

A certain alleyway.

That damn Lin Xiao ran out the door without saying anything. Elena had no choice but to follow after him in order to avoid the contract’s rebound.

This was the first time she’s seen Lin Xiao flare up so much since meeting him.

It was probably because of Shen DaiYing’s rejection. That’s why his mental state was abnormal… she guessed.

But, what was so good about that woman, Shen DaiYing? Isn’t she just a bit flirty and a bit unrestrained, was it enough to make Lin Xiao so infatuated?

Elena didn’t understand, she wasn’t bothered to understand. The only thing she wanted to do now was to quickly catch up to him, shorten the distance between her and Lin Xiao to relieve her headache.

“Hey, slow down!” Elena shouted when she was finally able to see Lin Xiao’s figure.

“Why did you come?” Noticing her catch up, Lin Xiao stood there and turned his head with dissatisfaction and shouted, “Didn’t I tell you to stay home?”

“Damn idiot, do you want me to die?” Elena retorted furiously.

If she really stayed home, as soon as Lin Xiao got too far away, she would receive an intense rebound and die.

“Tsk, how annoying.” Lin Xiao clicked and stood there as if waiting for Elena to approach.

But as soon as Elena got near, he suddenly turned around and ran.

“Don’t follow me, scram!” Leaving behind a coarse line, Lin Xiao quickly ran away.

“Sigh…”

Normally, she should be angry when cursed at, but currently, not only was she not angry, she instead laughed.

Lin Xiao’s actions were simply too childish, he purposely waited until she got near before running off. Then he would stop and wait for her, say something sarcastic and then run off again. He continuously baited her and repeated this process.

It was like Elena was watching an extremely comical scene, a child called Lin Xiao was throwing a tantrum and ran ahead, then while running he also turned around and said, “Hmph, I’m not in a good mood, so hurry up and chase me, make me happy!”

“Sigh, how did I meet such an idiotic child?” Elena hopelessly sighed.

She wasn’t angry anymore, because she felt that it was useless to be angry.

It wasn’t worth getting angry at such a childish brat.

She might as well not complain and just honestly chase him, let Lin Xiao enjoy the pleasure of being chased by a beauty.

Sure enough, Lin Xiao ran a bit, then stopped after noticing that Elena wasn’t there yet. He was clearly waiting for her, when she caught up, he turned into a narrow alley and continued running.

“Too childish.” Elena painfully clutched her head.

Because she had the ‘Magic Detection Radar’, she could accurately pinpoint Lin Xiao’s location, so as long as Lin Xiao didn’t escape as fast as possible, she could successfully catch up and didn’t have to worry about going in the wrong direction.

So, the two continued running around like this, after a while they entered a crowded residential area. The houses here were much more packed together compared to other areas in the city, and most buildings had three or more floors. There was only a narrow alley between each building, even if you looked up you could only see a narrow slit of the sky.

These network of alleyways were as complicated as a labyrinth, someone unfamiliar with it may very well get lost.

It was like he was testing how strong Elena’s ‘Magic Detection Radar’ really was, Lin Xiao was purposely fleeing left and right and constantly changing directions. At first, Elena could just barely keep up, but she quickly noticed that she was lost! What made her even more panicked was that her magic detection radar was useless!

She was currently in an alley that ran from east to west, but the radar showed that Lin Xiao was 10m or more to her left!

This baffled her, going forward or going back wasn’t right, should she go with her radar and go left?

But there was a wall to her left! It’s not like she could go through walls.

The complicated surroundings finally resulted in Elena getting lost.

“Hu, hu… my head hurts so much…” in just a while, her head started hurting.

Her body was no different from a human girl’s, after running in succession, she already used up more than half her stamina. Now with the soul rebound, painful headache, it became even difficult to walk.

“Damn Lin Xiao!!!” she used the last of her energy to cry out.

Unfortunately, this shout didn’t call Lin Xiao over, but some unrelated people 一一 her magic detection radar notified her that three strange people were approaching her!

Those three people came from two directions, two from the front and one from the back. Their strength were not normal, all of them were fourth level warriors. She was being sandwiched, they obviously came prepared… was she their target? Elena was kind of worried.

It was three young men, they were able to reach fourth level warriors at such a young age, and possessed elementary battle aura, you can’t say that they didn’t have talent… now Elena was even more worried. Who were they? How did she catch their eye?

Elena couldn’t even stand still because of her headache, it felt like the sky was spinning and she was seeing stars. She knew she had nowhere to escape to, so she just leaned against the wall and stayed there.

Soon, along with hurried footsteps, three sturdy muscle men appeared in front of her.

“Big bro Harrison, look, what’s Lin Xiao’s maid doing here? … Was she abandoned by Lin Xiao?”

“No way, why would Lin Xiao throw his maid onto the streets?”

“Who knows? Let’s go take a look!”

Saying that, the three went over. The youngest one, Harden, struck up a conversation first.

“Hi, Elena, what are you doing here by yourself?”

“Who are you? How do you know my name?” Seeing that man with a scar on his forehead, Elena vigilantly asked.

“Ha ha, Loran Academy’s most beautiful ice goddess, Lin Xiao’s huge breasted maid, Elena, all the students know your name!” Harden said while grinning.

“Oh, is that so.” Elena coldly replied, “So that means you guys are also Loran Academy’s students?”
