"Hmm?"
Qi Ye raised his eyes with some confusion.
He saw Chen Mo standing in front of him, one hand firmly grasping the Mystic Shadow Shuttle, no matter how Qi Kaihai tried to activate it, it wouldn't budge an inch.
"Did you think dying would solve everything?" Chen Mo cast him a sideways glance and said coldly, "Your life has not belonged to you for a long time. Even if you wish to die, you'll need my permission first."
"I understand, sir." Qi Ye lowered his head silently, not daring to speak further.
Chen Mo sized him up thoughtfully.
Typically, after being controlled by the Heart Devouring Poisonous Insect, one would become a complete puppet of the person who planted the insect, yet Qi Ye seemed to retain a certain degree of autonomy. Could it be due to the forceful maturation process back then?
However, this might be better. Being too wooden wouldn't be convenient. As long as loyalty isn't an issue, it's fine.
