Wu Wei couldn't help but feel a jolt in her heart the moment she heard the voice, her face showing a complex expression.
Lu Xiao had always seemed gentle and polite, perfect in her eyes, different from all the males she had encountered growing up. But now, hearing the suppressed voice from within, he seemed like a completely different person.
After hesitating for a moment, she stepped inside.
...
Meanwhile, inside the secret chamber.
Lu Xiao felt like countless sharp needles were piercing through his bones; his forehead veins bulged, and his complexion was so pale it was almost drained of blood, cold sweat soaking his clothes.
He bit his mouth hard, but the sensation was like a thousand needles corroding his bones, not diminishing at all, instead becoming more intense each time.
Even more fearsome to him was the intense craving that was surfacing within his body.
—He yearned for an injection of "Return Nest."
