CH 299

Lin An remained silent and didn’t answer, and when he returned to the living room and sat down on the sofa, Xi Ning sat in his arms and coaxed him, “I won’t leave, I just went to clarify with them, in case there is any misunderstanding, so that there won’t be a fight……”

He was embarrassed to say that he was worried that Lin An would not be able to beat the mercenary group and the others, but he still persuaded him, “If you don’t want to go out, we…… just meet them at the door or window, okay? You don’t want to have a conflict with them, do you?”

Lin An couldn’t resist his coaxing, so he quickly agreed, “Okay…… I’ll go.”

“Let’s go together,” Xi Ning emphasized, touching Lin An’s side face, “They will believe it.”

He could guess what Lin An was thinking about. Just because he didn’t care about Lin An’s identity didn’t mean others didn’t care. After all, it was Lin An who sneaked into the convoy hiding his identity and took him away.

But as long as he shows that they are in love with each other, others can’t butt in that much.

Xi Ning felt relieved when Lin An had agreed, and he kissed Lin An’s lips as a reward. Lin An hugged him for a while, and said, “Some mung beans on the balcony are ripe, do you want to eat cakes?”

With Xi Ning’s fire of life, vegetables and plants matured quickly, Xi Ning said in surprise, “You know how to make cakes?”

“Yes.”

Seeing his smile, Lin An felt at ease, raised the corners of his lips and squeezed Xi Ning’s hand, “Wait for me for a while.”

That night, Lin An sensed the call of the black mist again.

He didn’t want to go, but he was very annoyed by it, even holding Xi Ning tightly could not relieve the anxiety in his heart.

The black mist communicated with Lin An last night, and the connection between it and Lin An was even deeper. Lin An was so annoyed that he finally left the bedroom quietly.

He came to the basement, and the black mist cut to the chase, “You…… are using the sound transmission stone today?”

Lin An frowned. He didn’t have any sound transmission stone at all, but Xi Ning had one on him to contact other elves. He saw Xi Ning use it on the road, and he said impatiently, “No, you are so persistent in calling me here just for this?”

“No… I just accidentally released my spiritual energy, and these things will malfunction in my vicinity.” The black mist’s voice became softer, and continued, “I was worried that I might interrupt you doing your thing, so……”

Lin An interrupted it coldly, “Don’t put on a show here, I know what you want to do.”

The black mist guessed that someone else in the tower was using a sound transmission stone. In its memory, Lin An had never used this kind of thing. It could sense when the sound transmission stone was activated, so it wanted to find an excuse to call Lin An over and continue to persuade him.

It is locked in this dungeon the whole time, unable to detect the outside world, and can only guess based on the little information it has.

Seeing that Lin An saw through him, he stopped talking nonsense with him, and swayed around in the small space, “Why don’t you tell him my existence? Are you afraid that he won’t accept it? He is using a sound transmission stone, who is he trying to contact……”

Lin An clenched his hand tightly. Hearing its last words, he relaxed and lowered his eyes, “He just wants to contact his clansmen, you don’t have to sow discord.”

He knew the purpose of Xi Ning’s sound transmission stone, and he calmed down a lot after being affected by the black mist. When he realized that his state was not right, Lin An turned

around and left, ignoring the black mist that was trying to persuade him to stay.

Lin An hurried upstairs. He stopped before entering the bedroom, and held his breath before pushing the door open.

Xi Ning was lying quietly on the bed just like when he left. Lin An approached slowly, with an expression on his face as if he was enduring something, and a trace of bewilderment in his eyes.

The black mist’s words echoed in his ears repeatedly. He clearly knew that Xi Ning would not care about his identity, and the sound transmission stone was only to contact his clansmen.

But if Xi Ning knew that he still kept such an evil being in the basement, and that it was taken out of him, would his attitude towards him remain the same?

As for the sound transmission stone…… Lin An took Xi Ning’s hand, touched the storage ring on his index finger, and took out a small stone very easily.

The sound transmission magic circle is engraved on the surface of the stone, and he can destroy it easily, by scraping away one of the lines, and the magic circle will be completely useless.

In a trance, Lin An remembered that black mist once said that the sound transmission stone was useless near its vicinity, and he actually didn’t need to do anything at all.

When he came back to his senses, Lin An let go of his tightly clenched right hand, but the sound transmission stone had been shattered into powder in his hand, and fell to the ground along his fingers.

Lin An looked down for a few moments, cleaned up the residue on his hands and the ground with a cleaning spell, and raised his hand to pinch his eyebrows.

When he took away the sound transmission stone, the system could see it clearly. It didn’t know what he did to the sound transmission stone. It was confused and worried for a second. Lin An suddenly turned around, he didn’t care that Xi ning was still sleeping and eagerly kissed his lips.

Xi Ning was disturbed. When he woke up, he thought he was dreaming. He put his arms around Lin An and responded slowly. Only then did Lin An feel that everything in front of him was real.

He rubbed Xi Ning’s lips, and murmured, “Ning Ning……”

Xi Ning was so sleepy that he half-opened his eyes, “Huh?”

Lin An kissed him a few more times, and held him securely in his arms, “It’s nothing, go back to sleep.”
