"Don't move, don't come any closer." Aphrodite's fingers clamped down on his throat; a slight exertion could snap his neck. Aphrodite's Illusion Technique was not mere disguise but a trick of the eye. Given the situation, likely only Zeus could see her True Body. Ji Qian was quite chagrined; she had been careless in the situation and was stunned upon seeing Su Qingyu. If she thought carefully, how could Su Qingyu be here, walking over so calmly?
Aphrodite clutched Ye Shikai's throat, dragging him backward. Zeus and the guards of the God King Hall stepped forward, shielding Aphrodite behind them. Ji Qian watched helplessly as Ye Shikai was taken away, feeling quite unwilling, but now Ye Shikai's life was in someone else's hands, and she couldn't risk it.
