Chapter 250: Use the Empty Hand! The Stolen Target

The old man led Chen Ming and others and left the palace-like building from the other side.

With Ling Yue and Chen Ming, the three of them strolled in Dragon City.

Dragon City is very big.

But even in such a big city, you can see the scenery of white marble everywhere.

Whether it is the neatly laid floor tiles or the arched bridge corridors...

They all reveal a sense of elegance, exquisiteness, but not stingy.

This is the accumulation and heritage of China for thousands of years!

The first-level main cities of other countries will not lose to China in terms of temperament, but in terms of details... I am afraid they are far behind!

Looking around.

Although there are only two players, Chen Ming and Ling Yue, in the whole Dragon City.

But Dragon City is still quite prosperous.

There are peddlers, merchants hawking, and children running and playing.

It is very lively.

In order not to expose his purpose, Chen Ming did not point out the target. He just followed the old man in the city, but he would make some suggestions and secretly guide the old man to his destination.

However, in order to avoid suspicion, Chen Ming still took a detour.

After taking a detour, Ling Yue found something strange.

"Huh? Why do I feel like I have seen these carriages before..."

"Didn't we see them on the street over there before?"

"Why did they all take a detour to this side?"

The old man smiled and replied, "This is because there is a taboo over there, so everyone chooses to take a detour..."

Ling Yue subconsciously looked at the other side of the wide avenue.

There, many people were walking.

"Taboo? Isn't there someone walking over there?"

The old man had a complicated expression, "The wealthy families in the city who can afford a carriage are more concerned about these things, so they would rather turn around and take a long way... But those poor families who have to race against time to make a living can't think so much. Saving some time on the way is far more cost-effective for them than breaking taboos."

Ling Yue stopped talking.

Even Chen Ming was silent.

But since the words have come to this, Chen Ming also took the opportunity to say, "I want to go over and take a look...Old sir, you can stay here, there is no need to break taboos for us."

Chen Ming's beautiful words of courtesy can be said to kill two birds with one stone.

The old man hesitated for a moment and nodded.

Chen Ming took a big step and walked over there alone as a matter of course.

Ling Yue hesitated for a moment and followed.

Just as the old man said.

The farther you go over there, the fewer people there are.

After walking a hundred or so steps.

Finally.

A small wooden platform appeared in front of Chen Ming.

It was so abrupt.

It didn't fit in with the surrounding environment.

It was as if a few drops of ink were inexplicably dripped into a natural painting.

Not only did it destroy the whole atmosphere, it was also very weird.

Even the vendors were trying to avoid it as much as possible.

Chen Ming and Ling Yue approached.

They suddenly saw a wooden stake standing on the small platform.

A woman was tied to the stake.

Her head was drooping weakly, making it difficult to see her face.

Her long black hair covered any angle from which her face could be seen.

She was wearing standard death row clothes.

It was tattered.

And covered with blood.

But her skin, which was exposed from under the death row clothes, was as white as cream.

It was precisely because of her fair and delicate skin that the bright red marks on her joints where she was tied with ropes were particularly glaring.

Everything made her look as if she had just been tied up there.

But everyone in Dragon City knew it.

Since their grandfather's grandfather's grandfather, this woman had been tied up here, blocking the main road that runs through the north and south of Dragon City...

Chen Ming briefly mentioned the origin of this woman to Ling Yue.

Ling Yue, who was still a little confused, couldn't help but show fear after hearing Chen Ming's explanation.

In the Dragon City that looks so prosperous...

There is such an alien!

This strong contrast made Ling Yue feel a chill in her heart.

Chen Ming led Ling Yue towards the execution ground.

Closer.

Chen Ming could see more details on her.

At the same time.

His magic hand also prompted the other party to enter the distance.

"Logically speaking..."

"A guy who has been sealed for countless years..."

"Shouldn't be awakened directly by my empty-handed skill?"

"After all, the plot of the previous life has developed to that extent, with fights everywhere, and I have never heard of this woman having any changes."

"A mere empty-handed skill won't cause this woman to change."

Chen Ming silently calculated the risks.

Compare it with the things that this kind of woman might steal.

He can completely bear this little risk!

No more hesitation!

This time, Chen Ming did not choose to raise his hand and release the skill directly.

But he quietly used the empty-handed skill in the dark!

"Ding--Empty-handed skill successfully stole!"

"Congratulations on getting..."

Chen Ming clearly saw a red font light up in his system bar.

But before Chen Ming could get happy.

The next second.

The red font disappeared directly!

Flashed away!

Instead, there was another prompt.

"Twilight Priestess Asuna uses the [Thought Steal] skill!"

"Your Empty Hands' designated target has been changed!"

"Congratulations on obtaining [Ancient Dragon Seal Emblem] x2!"

What the hell? !

Chen Ming had a series of question marks in his mind.

Didn't he steal a red artifact-level item? !

How...

Changed? !

However, even so, Chen Ming did not immediately check the so-called Ancient Dragon Seal Emblem, but looked at the woman nervously...

As long as she made a slight movement.

Chen Ming would run away immediately!

He looked at the woman nervously.

Suddenly!

Her fingers seemed to move...

That movement.

It was like provoking Chen Ming's nerves.

It made his eyes twitch violently.

He immediately took out the scroll back to the city and wanted to run away.

But the next second.

A reminder sounded in his ears.

"Ding——Twilight Priestess Asuna's seal loosens and improves!"

"Ding——Twilight Priestess Asuna's favorability improves!"

Two prompts popped up in succession.

Chen Ming's nervous heart relaxed slightly.

The seal loosens...

Favorability improves...

In other words, the ancient dragon seal emblem I stole is actually the seal on this woman? !

No, he didn't steal it.

It should be that the woman forced it on him!

In other words...

His previous prediction of this woman was correct.

She is still alive!

Even... she has a very strong power!
