As he looked at the creature that bore little difference from the surrounding Deep Divers, Chu Donglin fell silent.
He instinctively took two steps back, his brow furrowed tightly.
He was certain that this transformation was not a mere illusion but a genuine alteration of the body; Liushan Shu had indeed been turned into a monster by the woman before him.
However, the means to turn a living person into such a creature...
Chu Donglin tightened his brow, watching the enchanting woman across from him with suspicion. "How did you do it?"
The woman smiled playfully at him, gently waving the fan in her hand.
"Just as you think, Mr. Chu Le, I used my unique superpower to achieve this... You don't really believe I'm that Evil God called Nyarlathotep, do you? If I had powers as strong as that Evil God, then no one in this world would ever dare to defy me."
Her soft laughter only earned a cold response from Chu Donglin.
"I want to take it away..."
Chu Donglin pointed at the Deep Diver that had once been Liushan Shu, pausing for a moment before indicating the two unconscious individuals at Acha's feet. "...and them too."
He raised his right hand, and countless sharp objects hovered behind him, gently trembling as if ready to shoot out at any moment.
"Of course, if you want to stop me, that's fine. I wouldn't mind having a fight with you to see your true power."
Yet in response to Chu Donglin's hostile demeanor, Acha showed no sign of fear; instead, she smiled lightly.
She opened one side of her fan, gently covering half of her face, and teased, "You come to me empty-handed to demand hostages? Aren't you planning to offer something in return?"
Chu Donglin glared at her coldly, ignoring her enchanting laughter. "What do you want?"
"Well... what do I want? Oh dear, that's actually quite a difficult question to answer."
The woman tapped her head with the fan in distress, her brow furrowed tightly. "What do I really want? It's hard to think of it right now..."
Suddenly, as if struck by inspiration, she clapped her fan and revealed a look of surprise.
"Ah... I've got it."
She laughed joyfully, clapping her hands in delight. "How about this... If you want to take two hostages from me, then you owe me two favors. Well, I don't have anything specific in mind right now, so let's just keep it on record for the time being. You can take the people first, and when I think of my specific requests later, you can come find me... Does that work?"
"Two?"
Chu Donglin furrowed his brows, coldly staring at the woman across from him. "Why only two?"
"Because this Mr. Liu Shan Shu has already turned into a Deep Diver and is no longer human. How could I possibly let him go back? The other two are still human, so you can take them... What? Is there a problem?"
At this point, Acha seemed to be in a difficult position as she looked at Chu Donglin. With a troubled expression, she said, "Even if you have objections, I really can't give you Mr. Liu Shan Shu... If you refuse to agree, then our deal can only be canceled."
Chu Donglin fell silent. He looked at this mysterious woman of unknown origin and power, then glanced at the monster Deep Diver that Liu Shan Shu had become. His gaze lingered on its evil and grotesque form for several seconds.
In the eyes of this monster, there was no trace of rationality left from its human existence; it had completely transformed into an evil creature that could never return.
After a few seconds of silence, Chu Donglin made his decision.
"Fine, I'll only take the two unconscious ones. As for Liu Shan Shu, you can dispose of him as you wish."
Pausing for a moment, Chu Donglin looked at Acha's delighted smile and said coldly, "But don’t get too happy too soon. While I’ve agreed to your two requests, they must be within my capabilities. For any unreasonable demands, I reserve the right to refuse... Whenever you think of something, come find me across the river."
"Then it's settled~~~ Mr. Chu Donglin!"
Acha playfully waved her fan and ordered the nearby Deep Diver to bring the unconscious Liu Xiner and Pan Dayou to Chu Donglin.
"Hehe... Don't look at me with such terrifying eyes. It's not my fault that I accidentally finished looking through Sister Liu Xiner's memories! I didn't mean to expose you."
The woman giggled, finding great amusement in Chu Donglin's grim expression. "Remember, you now owe me two requests. Don’t think about running away or shirking your debt; I've already gone through all of Sister Liu Xiner's memories and know everything about you inside out. If I can't find you in Wocheng, then I'll have to go to Wangcheng to find your parents or Jiang Hai to look for your ex-girlfriend... I believe you wouldn't want these people to fall into trouble because of your actions, would you?"
Chu Donglin looked at the woman with a grim expression; his gaze was far from friendly.
"Did you recognize me from the very beginning?"
"Of course! A distinguished handsome man like Mr. Chu Donglin stands out in any crowd. I could spot you at a glance... After all, you're just too charming and adorable. And the way you're trying so hard to pretend not to know Mr. Liu Xiner, worrying for your lover—it's just too handsome of you. I can't bear to expose you... Hehe... Are you pretending not to know Sister Xin'er because you're afraid I'll use it to blackmail you? Mr. Chu, you're really cautious."
"........"
Amidst the woman's laughter, two Deep Divers had already carried the unconscious figures of the two individuals before Chu Donglin, looking up at him, waiting for him to take them away.
Chu Donglin silently lowered his head, gazing at Liu Xiner's peaceful sleeping face and the chubby Pan Dayou beside her. Without hesitation, he kicked Pan Dayou's unconscious body away.
"You can keep this fat guy; I'll just take Xing'er."
However, Acha chuckled and waved her hand lightly, an invisible force sending Pan Dayou's hefty body back.
"The deal has been confirmed, Mr. Chu Donglin; you can't back out now. Even if you don't want this fat gentleman, you'll still owe me two requests. You can't change the deal just because you're only taking Sister Liu Xiner."
With Acha's laughter ringing in the air, Chu Donglin snorted coldly, his expression darkening.
Yet when Pan Dayou's body flew back towards him this time, he didn't kick it away but instead caught the unconscious man with ease and tossed him aside. It was clear that he had silently accepted this loss. (To be continued...)
