Chapter 1423: His Gaze

[Shut up!] Xia Yingluo told it off in her heart. [Annoy me further and I'll eat you up!]

[You can't do this! You can't—!] The World Tree began screaming even more loudly, but Xia Yingluo wasn't attending to it anymore.

She looked up at Wei Lingnan and smiled. "Alright, then. We'll use energy." This decision was made solely because the World Tree angered her. She was not a puppet at anyone's mercy!

Wei Lingnan could not hear the conversation between her and the World Tree and felt pleasantly surprised to see her smile at him.

He carefully cupped her face in his hands and planted a kiss on her forehead. After the kiss, a thread of faint white energy began spreading out and soon, the air around her face became distorted. To other ordinary humans, all they saw was another ordinary face. Only those of the Skatana species like her could see her actual look through the distorted air particles.
