487: Chapter 487: Ji Qian’s Crisis 487: Chapter 487: Ji Qian’s Crisis “You’ve really gone mad.” Ye Shikai’s eyes widened in astonishment, Athena spoke shockingly, she actually wanted to do that sort of thing right here.
Frankly speaking, her figure could be described as perfect with her long, fair limbs, even though they were covered by clothes, it was hard to conceal her proud, toned physique.
Still, although Athena wasn’t a delicate beauty, she was quite the looker.
With such a figure and appearance, she could easily enchant a host of male companions, but.
She is a Valkyrie, who would dare flirt with her.
At this moment, Athena was pressing down on Ye Shikai, and her long legs were gently rubbing against his body.
Frankly speaking, any man would react.
Ye Shikai shook his head, and with a strong push of his hands, he propped Athena up.
If he did what she wanted, he would be betraying two women at the same time.
One was Athena, to whom he couldn’t provide any assurance or status, and the other was Su Qingyu, far in Yanjing.
If it was before marriage that Ye Shikai and Ji Qian had relations, it would have been excusable, but he was already married now.
If he went on to do that sort of thing with Athena, the label “adulterer” would firmly be fixed onto him.
Moreover, for Ye Shikai, entanglements with women had already rendered him unable to extricate himself from the chaos.
If Athena were added to the mix…
“I know what’s on your mind.
You’re worried about facing your wife, aren’t you?
I’ve told you, I won’t cling to you, at least not in Yanjing,” Athena tried to push Ye Shikai back down, but even though she had regained her Inner Strength, she was no match for Ye Shikai, who had been unguarded earlier.
“Just think of it as a one-night stand, no need for such a burden,” Athena continued.
“I’m sorry, I’m not interested in one-night stands, nor do I possess such ‘liberality’ to shoulder that kind of burden.” Ye Shikai coldly pushed Athena away.
If it really couldn’t be reasoned out, he could only respond coldly; after saying these words, he turned and left, leaving Athena standing there, stunned and alone.
“Hades, what did you say to Athena just now?
Why do I feel a chill down my spine?” The three continued through the tomb, both Ye Shikai and Athena had a gloomy expression, looking as if they had just had a fight.
Chuanzi, caught between the two, felt very awkward.
“It’s nothing, don’t ask too much,” Ye Shikai replied indifferently.
“But I feel like she seems to want to kill someone,” Chuanzi felt unprecedented fear, even when facing three giant beasts, she had never been scared.
But now, she was actually frightened by the icy aura emanating from Athena.
At least, for the past half hour, Athena’s hand holding the golden sword hadn’t loosened…
“She’s in a bad mood, don’t provoke her.
Otherwise, if she decides to teach you a lesson, I won’t help you.”
“Where are we heading next?” Suddenly, Athena broke the silence with a cold remark.
“We should find a team now, the truth is clear, and I have obtained two elements, it’s time to regroup.” Ye Shikai was somewhat surprised, as Athena still looked indifferent with no other symptoms like madness or craziness.
Meanwhile, at the other end of the tomb, a fierce battle was still ongoing.
“Bastard.” Soul Destroyer thrust his sword into the man in front of him, yanked it out forcefully, a white blade in, a red blade out; three bodies lay on the ground.
The seven who had ambushed the Demoness Soul Destroyer were now three fewer in number, but the duo was not faring well either.
The Demoness had a gash on her arm, and Soul Destroyer was even more battered, with a fresh blood trail on his cheek, that had been cut while blocking a strike intended for Demoness.
Under the siege of the seven experts from the Underworld, both of them were only able to exchange injury for injury, gradually wearing them down.
Wilson died, having thrown his sniper rifle to the side before stones falling from the wall buried him underneath.
Meanwhile, Nightmare and Wang Kai were only managing to hold Zeus to a draw; at this moment, whoever weakened first would perish.
“War God Spell—Whirlwind.” A turquoise tornado rose from the ground; Zeus dodged to the side easily and before he could regain his footing, a silver spear tip thrust towards him, stopping merely inches from his throat.
“Ha.” Suddenly, Zeus sensed a killing intent from behind, two streaks of black light flew by, and Nightmare abruptly appeared beside him.
Zeus leaped into the air to avoid a lethal halberd, but Nightmare followed with an elbow, smashing hard into Zeus’s stomach.
“Beauty Goddess Spell—Illusion Technique.” Suddenly, Nightmare and Wang Kai stopped in their tracks, as the scene before them transformed into a jungle and Zeus vanished.
“Be careful, this is Aphrodite’s illusion technique.” Nightmare quickly realized, speaking to Wang Kai beside him.
“Wang Kai, Wang Kai.” Nightmare yelled twice, but Wang Kai did not respond, seemingly not hearing; Aphrodite’s illusion not only controlled vision but even hearing, touch, and smell.
Anyone caught in the illusion felt as if they were transported into another world, unable to move.
“Thud.” Suddenly, Nightmare felt a heavy kick in the abdomen, sending his body flying several meters.
Just as he crawled up to defend himself, the figure before him was too overwhelming to concentrate.
Facing him was none other than Illusion Fox.
Inside the tomb’s passageway, two women walked side by side, one seemed to have sustained severe injuries, her pale face displaying a wasted beauty as she leaned on the other woman and walked slowly.
“Selena, you don’t need to support me, leave the tomb quickly.” The two were Ji Qian and Selena, who had accidentally entered the tomb, and Ji Qian felt a sudden weakness.
Since being injured outside, something seemed to have entered her body, continuously eroding her life, her Inner Strength could not heal her wounds, and even the gem-embedded Magic Wand was barely effective.
“Impossible, my lady, we must stick together.” Selena kept shaking her head, continuing to support Ji Qian.
“This is an order, if I am still your lady, then follow my command.” Ji Qian’s voice was very faint, almost breathless, yet her tone remained stern.
“Roar Roar.” Suddenly, five beasts burst out from a side passage of the corridor, surrounding both women.
Selena, holding a dagger, had a grim expression; they had just seen how these monsters tore a group of explorers to pieces—the experts of the Underworld didn’t even have the strength to fight back.
