Global Awakening: Eavesdropping on the SSS-level School Beauty's Inner Voice-Chapter 140 - 138: A Bitter Ploy! Nearly Lost My Life Trying to Gain the Trust of the Deceptive God Girl!
Chapter 140: Chapter 138: A Bitter Ploy! Nearly Lost My Life Trying to Gain the Trust of the Deceptive God Girl!
When planning to let Huang Yiyi know the truth, Lin Tianming made preparations in advance for the possibility that Huang Yiyi might choose to run away.
But when he actually saw her about to transform into the Holy Golden Butterfly and dissipate, even though Lin Tianming had mentally prepared for failure, he still couldn’t accept such a reality.
"Yiyi, calm down! If you leave like this, if the Yellow Clothes Church or the Demons from the Land of Calamity find you first, even I won’t be able to help you! They have ways to prevent you from using such methods to escape, and then you will be controlled by them, becoming a tool to unlock the Magic Tomb Seal, and all humanity will be hunted by the Divine Realm Demons; do you want to see such a world?"
If Huang Yiyi still believed in Lin Tianming, her kind nature would definitely have been persuaded by him.
But because Lin Tianming admitted that his initial approach to her was also to capture her, she now had no trust in Lin Tianming at all.
"Big liar! This is all your smooth talk to keep me stable, asking me out for ice cream... saying you wanted to be friends... giving me a name... It was all part of your plot to wait for your accomplice to capture me, and I trusted you so much!"
Huang Yiyi, while wiping her tears, furiously ran away, denouncing Lin Tianming for deceiving her.
The key point is that Huang Yiyi wasn’t wrong, Lin Tianming’s actions were indeed to wait for Hua Yufei to discuss how to deal with Huang Yiyi.
But his waiting for Hua Yufei was real, and his promises to Huang Yiyi were also genuine; he truly didn’t want to lock her up, let alone kill her!
Lin Tianming chased after Huang Yiyi, but as he drew closer, her body shimmering with the Holy Gold light, began to gradually dissipate.
As soon as Lin Tianming’s hand reached her again, she would be stimulated like last night and transform into the Holy Golden Butterfly to escape.
Facing such a dilemma, Lin Tianming, whose mind was racing for strategies, had no choice but to stop and decide to make one last gamble.
As for whether this gamble could keep Huang Yiyi, he had no certainty in his heart.
But no matter whether it was useful or not, this was all he could do!
Slowly dispersing the Light of Spiritual Ascension that shielded him, Lin Tianming’s true form was instantly exposed in the eerie black fog created by Huang Yiyi’s emotional loss of control.
Behind him, Hua Yufei was still under the protection of Lin Tianming’s Light of Spiritual Ascension, thinking that Lin Tianming was weakening to protect her from the eerie black fog, making him unable to protect himself.
So, Hua Yufei also immediately cried out anxiously: "Tianming, you don’t need to protect me! If you can’t hold on in this black fog, prioritize your own safety; I’ll find a way to persevere on my own!"
Hua Yufei’s cry was also heard by Huang Yiyi, who was running ahead.
Kind as she was, even though she felt deceived by Lin Tianming, she didn’t want her black fog to harm anyone.
Now, Huang Yiyi wanted to transform into the Holy Golden Butterfly and flee like last night, but just as she couldn’t control the black fog, she couldn’t control her ability to transform into the Holy Golden Butterfly either.
Her previous escapes were all due to extreme emotional loss of control, causing her to involuntarily dissipate as the Holy Golden Butterfly.
Now, hearing that Lin Tianming was in danger, she couldn’t help but stop running, anxiously turning her head back to look at Lin Tianming.
When she saw Lin Tianming exposed to the black fog, his face contorted in pain due to the eerie black fog’s erosions, Huang Yiyi was so distressed that tears streamed down her face.
"I... I didn’t mean to hurt you... really... I don’t want to kill anyone... even if you deceived me... I didn’t want to retaliate... really!"
Because of the worry that Lin Tianming might be killed by her actions, the Holy Gold light that enveloped Huang Yiyi wanting to flee gradually faded.
But following this, the eerie black fog leaking from her body became crazier.
So indeed, her ability’s emission is related to her emotions?
If he doesn’t chase her and first tries to stabilize her emotions, she won’t transform into the Holy Golden Butterfly and escape!
Although the corrosion of the eerie black fog became more terrifying than before, to keep Huang Yiyi, Lin Tianming had to take this risk.
"Cough, cough..."
Choking on blood due to the corruption of the eerie black fog, Lin Tianming took a deep breath and said, "Yiyi, I believe you don’t want to hurt me, I know you are a very kind person, not a monster. As long as you control your uncontrollable emotions, this black fog will disperse, and I can turn danger into safety..."
Lin Tianming’s words slightly stabilized Huang Yiyi’s uncontrollable emotions. She rubbed her red-rimmed eyes, "Do you... do you really believe I didn’t mean to hurt you?"
"Of course, as long as you calm down now and keep your uncontrollable emotions in check, I can survive... cough cough..."
The cost of this self-harming strategy was too high. As Lin Tianming’s body was corroded by the sinister black fog, his mind was also invaded by delirious thoughts, and his rationality was disintegrating bit by bit.
After just speaking a few words without any defense, Lin Tianming coughed up blood again.
Seeing Lin Tianming cough up blood again and his expression growing more painful, Huang Yiyi tried her best to restrain her own collapsing emotions to avoid hurting him.
The sinister black fog that lingered on this deserted street also became lighter as Huang Yiyi put effort into controlling her emotions.
"Good, just like that, Yiyi, I feel much better now. Once you’re completely stable, I can turn danger into safety!"
Lin Tianming also didn’t forget to inspire this Deceptive God Girl.
Under Lin Tianming’s encouragement, Huang Yiyi, who didn’t want to hurt anyone, gradually stabilized her negative emotions to a level that wouldn’t produce sinister black fog.
Although Huang Yiyi still looked anxious, the sinister black fog lingering on the street also dissipated.
Seeing this, Hua Yufei quickly ran up and nervously supported Lin Tianming, who was half-kneeling on the ground.
"Junior Brother Tianming, are you okay?"
"I’m fine... just a bit tired..."
Lin Tianming smiled faintly, glad that his gamble had paid off.
If he had gambled wrong, his life would have been devoured by the sinister fog.
The delirious thoughts disappeared along with the dispersal of the fog, and the corrosion on his body also vanished.
"I’ll treat you; just bear with it a bit, you’ll recover soon!"
While speaking, Hua Yufei displayed her Flourishing Flower Language Ability, enveloping Lin Tianming in vibrant flower petals for continuous treatment.
Standing by, Huang Yiyi guiltily hung her head low, feeling like a disaster-bringer.
Her emotions dipped even lower, tears fogging her eyes, and a faint sinister black fog began to swirl around her again.
Knowing that her tears also released sinister black fog, Lin Tianming immediately said, "Yiyi, see, as long as you control your emotions, you won’t hurt anyone. Be strong, don’t cry so easily!"
"Mm..."
Huang Yiyi rubbed her watery eyes, and the light black fog around her dissipated with Lin Tianming’s timely encouragement.
An unavoidable question approached, and Lin Tianming felt apprehensive, but he still maintained a sunny and sincere smile on his face.
"Yiyi, even when I was close to death just now, I still believed you wouldn’t hurt me. Can you trust me once? I didn’t bring Senior Hua here to capture you, did I?"
If even this self-harming strategy couldn’t make Huang Yiyi trust him, Lin Tianming could only watch her leave and wouldn’t think of any clever tricks to keep her.
Although Lin Tianming hoped he could move Huang Yiyi, he still maintained a rather pessimistic attitude about the outcome.
Huang Yiyi silently lowered her head.
Lin Tianming knew she needed time to think, and he gave Hua Yufei a look; both waited patiently.
Struggling internally for a long time, Huang Yiyi finally broke the silence, giving Lin Tianming an unexpected response.
"I don’t trust her, but I trust you!"
