"And if I say no? I don't want to go anywhere."
Ning Yu smiled faintly as she refused.
"Sister, you wouldn't want that cute girl to get into any trouble, would you? She seems to have a younger sister who lives with you too."
Ning Xuan remained calm, but her words this time were a blatant threat.
"Sssst!"
In the blink of an eye, Ning Yu's hand held a beautiful straight sword, with a blood-red butterfly ornament dangling from the hilt.
The blade now rested against Ning Xuan's neck.
"How about I make you all disappear from the face of the earth in 10 seconds?"
Ning Yu's eyes brimmed with killing intent, sending a chill down everyone's spine.
Ning Xuan looked at Ning Yu in surprise, her lips quivering as if she wanted to say something, her eyes welling up with tears.
It was as if something unbelievable had happened. Her body trembled slightly, but it wasn't out of fear.
It was heartbreak.
Tears spilled from Ning Xuan's eyes, tracing transparent trails down her cheeks.
"Sister, I never thought you'd treat me like this one day."
Her voice was filled with sorrow that couldn't be hidden. Ning Yu could clearly see that her feelings were genuine, not feigned.
Had they been close when they were younger?
Ning Yu wasn't sure, but seeing Ning Xuan's tearful face now, she imagined that if she ever cried, it would look something like this.
"Didn't you think others might want your life when you were threatening them?"
Ning Yu didn't lower her sword. She gazed coldly at Ning Xuan, as if looking at a stranger.
The bodyguards behind Ning Xuan finally reacted, raising their guns, all equipped with suppressors.
But their actions were hesitant. After all, these two were sisters, and one was about to kill the other. Should they intervene?
The only reason they raised their guns was out of instinct and professional duty.
"Are you crazy? Put your guns down!"
Ning Xuan suddenly barked the order, her tone sharp and commanding, a stark contrast to her gentle demeanor when speaking to Ning Yu.
The bodyguards were relieved to have an excuse to lower their weapons, but they couldn't help glancing at Ning Yu's sword, fearing she might really slice Ning Xuan's throat, leaving them with no way to explain it.
Ning Xuan finally snapped out of her inexplicable grief. She completely ignored the Blood Kite at her neck and took a step forward.
She tightly grasped Ning Yu's hand and said earnestly,
"I was too hasty. I didn't mean it that way, but Sister, your situation is really dangerous!"
Ning Yu felt Ning Xuan's hand, which was much colder than a normal person's, as if all the warmth had been drained away.
Suddenly, a thought crossed her mind, and a system prompt sounded in her head.
[Your Friendship Level with the target is: Close]
[Detected Origin of the target: No Value]
[No origin ability detected for replication]
Initially, upon hearing "Close," Ning Yu thought she might be able to replicate an ability, but to her surprise, Ning Xuan's origin was labeled as "No Value."
What did that mean?
Even her origin ability was missing.
However, since the friendship level was "Close," it meant Ning Xuan genuinely harbored no ill will toward her. Theoretically, Ning Yu had reason to trust her.
But on the surface, Ning Yu still asked,
"Why should I believe you? You were just threatening me."
Hearing Ning Yu's words, Ning Xuan pursed her lips and took a deep breath before saying,
"It's true, now that my words have been heard..."
Ning Xuan's right eye suddenly glowed brightly, with countless mysterious patterns flickering within. Something seemed to be activated.
Ning Yu recognized the symbol.
"Ah!!!"
"Ugh..."
Ning Xuan's figure suddenly vanished from Ning Yu's sight, but her target wasn't Ning Yu. It was all the bodyguards in the room.
They suddenly clutched their necks, some blood seeping through their fingers, others too slow, their blood splattering against the walls.
Only Ning Yu caught a glimpse of Ning Xuan's movements and the metallic blade that had "grown" from her hand.
When Ning Xuan reappeared before Ning Yu, the room was filled with corpses, leaving only the two of them alive.
Ning Xuan took out a handkerchief and gently wiped the blood off the blade. As the red stains were removed, the blade revealed a gleaming pattern.
With a flick of her hands, the blade seemed to be connected to some mechanism, retracting back into her body.
Ning Yu remained calm. This was nothing new to her, but she was puzzled:
"Why did you do that?"
"Because they heard my true intentions. They would have died anyway, sooner or later."
Ning Xuan said casually, showing no concern for their lives.
"It sounds like helping me goes against your organization?"
Ning Yu continued to question.
"Sister, have you forgotten? Like us, we were born to be unloved by anyone or anything. I only have you, and you only have me."
Ning Xuan finally looked directly at Ning Yu, her demeanor completely changed from the affectionate sisterly image.
Her eyes were deep and lonely, as if nothing in the world mattered to her except Ning Yu.
"Now do you believe me?"
Ning Yu fell silent, pondering for a moment, but didn't give a direct answer. Instead, she asked a new question:
"Why did you undergo cybernetic enhancement?"
Ning Xuan was taken aback by the question. She suddenly averted her gaze, her expression darkening:
"Sister, you must have met the Moon Princess, right? It seems you really have lost your memory."
Lost memory? I'm not even your sister, okay?
But that wasn't the point. Ning Yu had just heard a shocking term from her:
"How do you know about the Moon Princess?"
Ning Yu had never mentioned the Moon Princess to anyone. She had only seen her in dreams, and it was the Moon Princess herself who had told her the name.
"Of course I know. If it weren't for us, how could there be a Moon Princess?"
Ning Xuan seemed to finally accept that Ning Yu had 'lost her memory' and let out a helpless smile.
"So why did you undergo cybernetic..."
Ning Yu wanted to continue asking, but Ning Xuan interrupted her immediately.
"That's not important, Sister. You just need to know that I'm not here to harm you. On the contrary, you're in serious danger right now."
"Come with me quickly. I'll take you to a safe place, somewhere no one can find us!"
Her expression was serious, even a bit anxious.
"What danger? Why don't you explain?"
Ning Yu remained unmoved, wanting to hear the reason, but she also noticed something. Ning Xuan didn't want to tell her why she had undergone cybernetic enhancement.
't think I'm that capable, I'm just trying my best to stay alive. I've been kind all my life, never did anything bad, yet worldly suffering spared me not one bit. The human world is a nice place, but I won't come back in my next life. A kind young man, who wanted to just get by singing, but through repeated deceits and betrayals, has gone down an irredeemable path.

"Fine. Then grant this princess a consort to play with." "He must be obedient, devoted, and utterly infatuated with my body—so much so that he’d kneel and kiss my feet."
