Chapter 79

...

In the evening after work, Ye Xiao and his subordinates, including Ning Yuheng, had their meal in the canteen.

After the meal, Ye Xiao bid farewell to everyone and went home.

Several of them couldn't help but show envious expressions.

"Really envy Manager Ye, with his high salary, he can rent a place outside."

"Exactly, living alone is so great, and you can even find a girlfriend. The dormitory in the library doesn't allow random outsiders to come in."

"Why don't you find a colleague in the library? Wouldn't that solve the problem?"

"Those misshapen and cracked ones, could you even bring yourself to do it?"

"Turn off the lights, and everyone becomes a goddess."

...

Listening to everyone's discussion, Ning Yuheng thought to himself that he should also rent a place outside.

He had thought about this issue before, because his bloodline was special. Living with everyone else, if it were exposed, it would be very dangerous.

"Manager mentioned that the house he rented in the suburbs only costs 100 yuan a month. I should be able to afford it too."

With this thought, Ning Yuheng left the library and went to a nearby real estate agency.

"Hello, miss, welcome, welcome."

The client manager immediately came forward to greet him, but Ning Yuheng's expression was slightly grim as he said:

"I'm a man."

The client manager's smile froze, then he awkwardly laughed to ease the tension.

"Ah, sir, you look so delicate. Please come in, please come in. I'll get you some water."

Ning Yuheng coldly snorted and walked into the store. The other party quickly poured him a cup of water and then asked:

"Sir, are you looking to buy a house or sell a house?"

"Can't afford to buy, and I don't have a house to sell. I'm looking to rent."

Ning Yuheng picked up a disposable cup and took a sip of mineral water. The other party smiled again and asked:

"What price range are you looking for? Do you have any specific requirements for the location?"

"Um, the suburbs are fine, something cheaper."

"Alright, the rent for suburban areas generally ranges from 800 to 1200 yuan. What is your expected price range?"

Ning Yuheng couldn't help but raise an eyebrow slightly.

This is quite a difference from what the manager said!

The house the manager rented only costs 100 yuan a month, how did it become 800 yuan in his mouth?

"Don't you dare lie to me? My friend just rented a place, and it wasn't as expensive as you said."

The client manager still smiled and said:

"No problem, I was just giving you a rough estimate. You can tell me your expected price, and I'll give you some references."

"Um... I want a place for 100 yuan."

The client manager's smile suddenly vanished.

"How much did you say?"

"100 yuan a month!"

"Security, throw this fool out!"

"100 yuan to rent a house, are you out of your mind? Crazy, get lost. If I see you again, I'll break your legs."

Ning Yuheng, who was thrown out by several security guards, felt deeply puzzled.

Why can the manager rent a place for 100 yuan, but I can't?

But after feeling depressed, he started walking towards other agencies.

Maybe if I ask a few more, I might find one.

However, he didn't notice that in a corner of the street, a black mist was closely watching him.

"Hehehe, I never thought my luck would be so good, to find a royal bloodline of the Silver Fox. If I enter his soul and activate his bloodline, I can attract the experts of the Silver Fox clan.

By using this boy as leverage, the Silver Fox clan will have no choice but to help me.

Then, with the alignment of the Seven Stars, I will make two preparations, and I will surely break the seal and revive.

At that time, I will tear that brat who killed my avatar to pieces and eat him, turning him into my nourishment!"

...

On the other side, Ye Xiao returned home and saw the mess in the house, with several large holes dug in the sofa, causing him to frown slightly.

From the marks, these were all caused by sharp claws.

And the aura in the room was very familiar, it was Huan Liuli's aura, with no other life forms present.

This means that Huan Liuli did all of this?

"This damn cat, is she really that itchy?"

As he was about to use the Great Profound Heavenly Gang to find Huan Liuli, a fierce aura suddenly shot out from behind Ye Xiao, aiming straight for his spine.

Ye Xiao's eyes turned cold, and he activated the Divine Intent Technique, instantly disappearing from his original spot and reappearing behind the attacker.

Then, he exerted his powerful strength as a Fifth Rank Innate, stomping heavily on the attacker's back, pinning them to the ground. No matter how they struggled, they couldn't get up.

"Let me go, meow! Meow!"

Under his foot, Huan Liuli struggled and roared.

Ye Xiao raised an eyebrow slightly.

Something was off. The usual Huan Liuli wasn't like this, and her pupils had turned into the vertical pupils of a star beast!

This wasn't her normal reaction.

Without hesitation, the Great Profound Heavenly Gang accelerated, and a massive amount of mental energy surged into Huan Liuli's mind, suppressing her mental energy.

In an instant, Huan Liuli calmed down and slowly fell into a deep sleep.

"Ye Xiao... run, don't come back... for a few days."

In her sleep, she murmured, and Ye Xiao, with a serious expression, carried her back to her room, letting her rest on the bed before returning to his own room.

Just now, his Great Profound Heavenly Gang had scanned Huan Liuli's mind, and he understood what was happening.

The alignment of the Seven Stars! It's coming.

The so-called alignment of the Seven Stars refers to the seven special stars in the sky forming a straight line!

Because the power of star beasts comes from the stars in the universe, changes in the stars have a significant impact on star beasts.

The alignment of the Seven Stars is the most significant of all these impacts.

During the alignment of the Seven Stars, the power of star beasts will almost double or triple.

It is said that the closer they get to the stars, the higher the multiple of their power increase, and no one knows where the limit is.

However, the problem is that along with the increase in power, a massive disaster will occur: star beasts will lose their reason and gradually become mad.

Imagine a star beast whose power has greatly increased, which is already terrifying, and they will lose their reason, attacking other life forms without regard for their own lives.

This is a nightmare-like disaster!

Even more terrifying is that during the alignment of the Seven Stars, even half-beasts cannot resist and may also lose their reason, attacking humans like star beasts.

This is why human society is so wary of half-beasts.

Another point is that during the alignment of the Seven Stars, star beasts like Huan Liuli and half-beasts like Ning Yuheng cannot resist, and their consciousness will go mad, attacking humans. As for the sealed King El, who can guarantee that his power won't increase? Who can guarantee that his consciousness won't go mad?

Ye Xiao rubbed his temples.

"Looks like I need to read more books recently."
