Chapter 923: Opposing Worlds (18)
The woman held the door and stood steadily at the doorway. She leaned forward slightly and looked at Tian Jie.
After the little boy walked into the room, she slowly turned around and looked at Tian Jie again, with a barely perceptible smile on her lips.
"From what I understand, the strong are respected here." The woman's voice was calm and firm. "If you don't want to, you can kill me at any time."
Tian Jie's face was so gloomy that it seemed like water could drip out of it. He stared at the door opposite. The door was like a huge mockery, closing gently, as if laughing at his powerlessness.
His eyes seemed to be spitting fire, as if he wanted to burn a hole in the door with his gaze. His lips were tightly pursed, not a single sound came out, but from his tense muscles, it was clear that he was trying his best to control his emotions.
But he did not take action immediately, but stood there, motionless.
After a while, Tian Jie seemed to suddenly figure something out, the corners of his mouth rose slightly, revealing a sneer.
Forget it. If the targets of the two, big and small, are really him, then they will find an opportunity to attack him sooner or later.
He wanted to see how capable they were.
From then on, two families lived in the top floor of the skyscraper, which also meant that a good show was about to begin.
……
a certain room
"You said, besides that man, there are other people living on the top floor?" A voice that was difficult to distinguish between male and female sounded from behind the screen. The voice was sometimes as low as a man's, and sometimes as gentle as a woman's. Although it sounded calm, it seemed to contain surging waves.
The man kneeling on one knee on the ground trembled violently. He lowered his head in fear, not even daring to look up at the screen.
Even though there was a screen in front of him, he could still feel the sharpness of that gaze, as if it could penetrate his body.
"Yes, Master." His voice trembled. "Do you want to get rid of them while you're at it?"
"Who is it?" The voice sounded again from behind the screen, this time with a hint of subtle expectation.
"It's a woman with a child." The person on the ground answered cautiously.
This time, after he finished speaking, the voice behind the screen did not sound again for a long time, and the whole room fell into dead silence.
Just when he suddenly wanted to look up out of curiosity, a voice suddenly rang out from behind the screen, and it was a female voice.
The sudden sound made him tremble all over and his heart seemed to stop beating in an instant. He immediately lowered his head again as if he had been electrocuted.
"Kill them all." The voice was extremely creepy, as if it came from the Nine Nether Hell. Not only that, it also contained an indescribable strong cruelty that made people shudder.
As these three words came out, the air in the entire room seemed to freeze in an instant, and a strong chill continuously gushed out from behind the screen, like an icy cold current, quickly sweeping across the entire room.
The cold was so biting that the surrounding walls and ground seemed to be covered with a layer of frost, emitting a hint of chill.
"Yes." The man kneeling on the ground was obviously frightened by the cold air. His voice was trembling. He answered quickly and stood up hurriedly. He didn't even dare to turn his head and left the room as fast as if his feet were greased.
He even closed the door, as if he was worried he would die here if he stayed any longer.
But this person didn't know that the moment he left, the people in the room started arguing with each other!
The first voice that rang out was a man's, filled with anger and determination, "I said, don't hurt her!"
The woman's voice immediately retorted, "She hurt us so much, and you still want to protect her!?"
The man's voice didn't flinch at all, instead he spoke firmly, "We are like this because of the collapse of the world! Not her!"
The woman's voice was filled with sarcasm and disdain. "Hmph! It's because you couldn't be ruthless to her that we ended up like this!"
The man's voice rose an octave again, and he roared, "No matter what, don't do anything to her!"
Not to be outdone, the woman screamed, "If you have the guts, get out and protect her right now!"
Male voice: "..."
The woman's voice was even more dismissive. "Hmph, take care of yourself first."
